	You
	As the clock strikes 13 it's Friday, the 24th of May, year of our Lord, 2024.
	Well, they continue to push, to nudge, to coerce.
	It's coming up next, and then they will be banning and mandating this bird flu stuff.
	These people are relentless and shameless in terms of pushing these lies.
	Oh, we got another human, and now we had all the vaccine companies jump like 12 to 18 percent.
	Yesterday, because it was announced that they found another human with bird flu.
	So we're going to begin by talking about the pandemic stuff.
	We're also going to take a look at the spy satellite that Elon Musk is doing for the CIA. Yeah, that's right.
	He's got tens of thousands of the Internet Starlink stuff, which is, you know, the Internet was set up to spy on us, but this is more specific.
	But we have Eric Peters also joining us in the third hour.
	Lots to talk to Eric about.
	It's been a while since I talked to him.
	Looking forward to it. Stay with us.
	We'll be right back. Well, I want to begin with some real positive news.
	This guy should be an example to us all.
	And we've talked about him before.
	I've talked about him before. Years ago when this was happening, do you remember the New Jersey gym owner who stood up and kept standing up to these people, refused to close his gym when the governor demanded it?
	And remember how draconian the measures got?
	He has just now been cleared of over 80 charges, just now.
	But they stole a lot of money from him.
	They've damaged his business.
	He hasn't even gotten the capital that they emptied out of his bank account.
	They emptied out his bank account.
	You want to talk about the truckers in Canada?
	Yeah, that was an outrage, wasn't it?
	This guy got everything taken out of his bank account.
	And this has been four years since they took it out.
	And he's hanging tough.
	This guy's got a backbone of steel.
	And we're going to need that as well because they're going to be bringing up this bird flu stuff again.
	A New Jersey gem owner who bravely defied the tyrannical lockdown measures instituted in New Jersey by the Democrat Governor Murphy there, has been cleared of all 80 plus charges that are put against him. Beginning in 2020, Atlas gem owner Ian Smith, does that sound familiar? We talked about that. Atlas gem, to keep his business open after the Garden State's biggest vegetable, Phil Murphy, issued an arbitrary order to shut down all but
	essential businesses.
	He was non-essential. Remember that?
	The Trump term? Hillary said we were deplorable.
	Trump said we're non-essential.
	Gave money to the governors to shut down the non-essential businesses.
	That's one of the things that really, really got to me.
	Because I've been in a situation where we had a small business and we were shut down by the only time we ever shut down.
	By a storm.
	Power was gone from neighborhoods.
	When we finally got it back in one of the neighborhoods of one of the stores, we opened up and we ran it and people were coming in.
	The cops came in and shut us down and Walmart was open right across the street and I said, what about them?
	Oh, they're essential. It's like, don't you talk to me about being essential.
	You're not essential. Cops like you are not essential.
	You took an oath to the Constitution.
	At one point, the gym faced a fine of over $15,000 for every day.
	I remember this, and that they remained open.
	Some of the charges also carried the threat of up to six months in jail, said his attorney.
	In July 2020, Smith and his business partner, Frank Trombetti, were arrested as police boarded up their gym.
	They were charged with fourth-degree contempt of You know, we've got these Masons.
	They've got like 33 degrees, don't they?
	Can I get a 33rd degree of contempt?
	How can I express my utter contempt for people like Trump and Murphy and Trudeau and Macron and Bojo and all of these tyrants?
	I just can't express my contempt strongly enough.
	I want a 33rd degree contempt charge.
	Obstruction and violation of a Disaster Control Act.
	In January 2021, the governor seized all, all of the GEMS bank account, draining it of $165,000 without warning, without permission, while the duo was engaged in litigation with the state.
	And again, you know, you look at $165,000, that's a lot of money to most of us.
	But that's what you, you know, when you've got a business that's, if you've ever, when you bought a house, right, the amounts of money that start going through there pretty soon, if you're building, especially if you're building it, because this is going on, you're writing checks, this things are going on pretty soon.
	It's like, oh yeah, we're dealing in thousands and tens of thousands of dollars when you're writing the checks and going into debt and all the rest of stuff.
	But, you know, that's the way a business runs.
	It just... You have to have that amount of capital comes in and it goes out pretty quickly as well.
	And if the government comes in, it all goes out right away.
	Those charges hung over these guys' heads for four years, said their lawyer.
	In the midst of the battle, Smith declared, this will not stop us.
	We will not stand down.
	We will continue to fight this fight because we know, based on what is outlined in the Constitution, that when we get to the right courts and in front of a judge who respects the Constitution, we will win this case.
	It took four years.
	But that happened.
	Never give up, and don't give up on the Constitution either.
	Because the Constitution, even if it's not enforced, shows everybody what liars they are.
	The Constitution is there like Google Gemini's pictures of where they changed all these historical figures in Europe.
	To blacks or Asians or women or whatever.
	That kind of stuff stands there as a giant marker of their fraud.
	And so does the Constitution.
	It's not as obvious as the picture.
	You've got to actually read it and think a little bit, but it's pretty clear.
	It's not very complicated.
	You don't need anybody to interpret it for you.
	It's written in English. We all speak English.
	Well, not all of us anymore, but most of us do.
	I don't need a judge to interpret the Constitution.
	The language is plain, and so is the history of it.
	Anyway, he said, and we will make sure that no governor, no government official will ever wield these powers again, he said.
	But they're about to do it.
	We all have to be Ian Smith's.
	It's coming up, folks.
	They're going to do it again and again and again.
	In various ways, slightly different ways.
	But they're going to keep doing it until some of these other people go to jail.
	Smith, remain true to his word, has emerged victorious.
	He recounted the long legal battle against the authoritarian government on his Twitter.
	He said, all of the 80-plus municipal citations of violations of a governor's order, it's not law, of public nuisance, of disturbing the peace, and operating without a license against us, all those have been dropped by the courts, With prejudice.
	That means that they cannot open it up again.
	Once the judge did that, said, okay, you're not going to retry this either.
	These are gone.
	No ability to revisit or to refile.
	Special thanks to our fearless attorneys John McCann and Giancarlo Guione, some of the most high-profile attorneys around the country who ran our case knowing that it would be a long, hard road and would make them a target of the state as well.
	These two gentlemen stood with us through the darkest days of the storm, have not flinched, never once cared about being in front of cameras to gain notoriety from their work.
	And then he said this.
	These are the words we live by.
	Nobody is coming to save you.
	Nobody is coming to save you.
	Spit on your hands.
	Save yourself. Hoist the black flag.
	No quarter. That should be our attitude.
	We don't give Trump a pass.
	We don't give Biden a pass.
	We don't give any of these congressmen, senators, Republican, Democrat, we don't give any of them a pass.
	None of them. I don't care if the other guy, oh, he's worse than our SOB. Well, guess what?
	I'm not voting for an evil guy.
	And you shouldn't either.
	You want to fix the elections?
	Fix it with ballot access.
	Fix it with debate access.
	Start from the beginning because it's corrupted from the beginning.
	Boy, they're all about Alito flying the flag upside down.
	I think that ought to be a new tradition.
	I think it will be for our family.
	Every election. Fly the flag upside down.
	Distress. First, we'd have to get an American flag.
	That's right.
	I long ago lost so much confidence in the government.
	I don't even have an American flag.
	So, a good one just to fly it upside down on election day.
	Well, a major victory has been won.
	McCann has now turned his attention, the lawyer, to recouping the $165,000 confiscated by the state.
	And other fines that the gym incurred while struggling to stay open.
	The lawyer McCann said, this is a very tricky issue and I'm making my way through it.
	It's very complex. He says, like, is the state trying to destroy people?
	Yeah. And it's not just coming after Trump.
	This is why I say, I'm so sick and tired of everybody playing the weeping violins for every little thing that happens to Trump.
	Yeah, they're trying to destroy him.
	Guess what? They're trying to destroy hundreds of millions of other people.
	And he doesn't care about them.
	Why should I care?
	He is absolutely useless, as I said in 2020.
	You want me to go vote for Trump?
	He turned the government over to unelected bureaucrats for the last nine months.
	He just told us that he's not essential.
	Didn't he? It's like these pastors who close their churches down.
	Oh, okay, I got it. Your church is not essential.
	You turned over, the Congress turned over everything to unelected bureaucrats.
	The President turned it over to unelected bureaucrats.
	So I guess the President and Congress are not essential.
	They're not going to stand for our liberties.
	They're not going to stand for the Constitution.
	They will not obey it.
	So anyway, he says, is the state trying to destroy people?
	Why are you trying to destroy small business?
	Well, we all know, don't we?
	We all know. This by Dr.
	David Bell, the Daily Skeptic out of the UK, said, My tribe, my tribe abandoned me in COVID, but I found a new one, one that loves freedom.
	And he says human societies naturally divide into groups or tribes, okay?
	And of course, that's the way the Bible has always described it.
	It doesn't talk about different races, right?
	We're all descended from Adam and Eve.
	We're all descended, as a matter of fact, from Noah and his wife.
	But it does talk about nations, tongues, and tribes.
	I like what Michael Savage did with it.
	I don't know if it was a conscious restatement of it, but the Bible is true, and even if it's an independent observation of his, he just happened to observe in a different perspective the truth about what the Bible says of human nature.
	Nations, tongues, and tribes, or what he said, was borders, languages, and cultures.
	Think of it either way.
	So, human tribes rely on a shared pride of belonging, a sense of otherness towards non-members.
	This provides their members with a cause, a meaning, such as jointly building a better life, or something like that, right?
	Or it could be negative.
	It could be a feeling of superiority, or victimhood, or something like that, or excluding outsiders.
	And he said what he saw with his tribe, He was of the tribe of liberals.
	And again, they weren't liberals because liberals, these people steal everything.
	They even stole the name, liberal.
	Liberal, and we'll say classical liberal now to make that distinction.
	But the term liberal came from liberate.
	It meant freedom. In the early part of the 20th century, these people stole it.
	And now they've discredited that name so much they like to try to call themselves progressive, something else that doesn't really describe them.
	Anyway, superiority, victimhood, or denigration of others seems to be intertwined in modern society, probably always has been.
	The reliance on prejudice, prejudice that our side is morally superior to those others who, in turn, are best described as stupid.
	And prejudice themselves against what we hold to be right.
	We express their moral inferiority in terms such as racist, something phobic, something denier, anti-something, far something, or extremist.
	And it always is a hallmark, isn't it?
	Always have extreme right, but they never talk about the extreme left.
	Ha ha. That would be them.
	Anyway, early in the COVID outbreak, it became increasingly apparent that my tribe, a moderate, compassionate group, somewhat left of center, and always ready to proclaim support for human rights and equality, had a problem with fascism.
	It was not that it disliked fascism.
	Those members proclaimed loudly that they did.
	We're anti-fascist.
	No, you are fascist.
	Rather, they seemed disconcertingly comfortable in encompassing it.
	A bunch of wealthy corporate authoritarians and the politicians who had dinners with them decreed that emergency rule was the preferred form of government.
	And all of my progressive friends fell in line.
	This is why Hillary was not needed.
	This is why Trump was selected.
	Because Trump had to be there.
	And people like Alex Jones that tell people, follow Trump.
	He's on your side. I know.
	I know. He went to Davos and then comes back and within a year he's locking us down and all the rest of the stuff.
	And I know he's doing everything that all of the globalist people that we've been told over the years that we must hate.
	But he's still anti-globalist.
	He's just playing 4D chess.
	No, he's not. You're being played by people like Alex Jones and Joe Rogan and Glenn Beck and Mark Levin and Ben Shapiro and all these other people.
	They're playing you.
	They're telling you that Trump is the opposite of these globalists.
	He's their puppet. And he was necessary because all of the authoritarian leftists will fall in line.
	They love this stuff. You need to build up the street creds of some token figure like Trump, tell people that he is the essence of anti-globalism, and then have him run the globalist regime, even creating the poison shot.
	Oh, they'll never suspect that, will they?
	Maybe they won't.
	Maybe they'll never figure it out if they haven't figured it out after four years.
	But refuge can be found among fellow refuseniks, he said, a strange collection of those who mistakenly or not put truth over compliance.
	Unwilling to comply with stupidity for appearance's sake.
	People who would not put on a mask to walk 10 feet from a restaurant door to a table.
	Don't tell me I've got to put on a mask so I can walk 10 feet and then take the mask off.
	I'm... I had more than one restaurant seen about that.
	We've got to leave Austin because I can't.
	I promised myself that I will never go back to any of these businesses again, so if I ever want to eat out again, I've got to leave this town.
	I was so disgusted with that left wing, these compliant people.
	Totalitarian little Stasi doing whatever they're told, no matter how ridiculous it is.
	I said, you know this doesn't work.
	Yes, I know. But you have to do it anyway.
	No, I don't.
	No, I don't. I'm not going to knock on wood, wear masks, do any of your other superstition stuff.
	If you've got a ladder, I'll walk underneath it.
	I don't care. I'm not playing those games.
	Signaling conformity with authority was a virtue in itself to these people.
	That's fascism. People who asked questions when those who were sponsored by a drug maker told them to be injected.
	These were the people who simply believed that each person had a right to make their own decision concerning their body and their health.
	So, yeah, good for him.
	And he found some people. And we're going to have to do this again because now they're saying...
	Second human case of bird flu is confirmed.
	With dairy cows.
	Take away the meat. Take away the milk.
	They've already announced this long ago.
	Guess what? It's pink eye again.
	Pink eye. No temperature.
	No fever. No lung congestion.
	Pink eye. Pink eye.
	The second, listen to the way they describe this too, CBS News.
	The second human case associated with bird flu.
	They don't have bird flu. The cows don't even have bird flu.
	The latest patient had been in contact with cows presumed to be infected.
	They don't even pretend to test them with this ridiculous PCR thing.
	You know, they presume.
	It's like Stanley Livingston.
	Bird flu, I presume.
	Yes, Dr. Livingston.
	Absolutely. We must lock everybody down.
	I got this thing in my eye.
	It's got a little bit itchy.
	Bird flu. Bird flu.
	That's what it is. Bird flu, I presume.
	Maybe it's just dirty hands rubbing your eyes.
	You know, you're working on a farm?
	You're working with cattle?
	Maybe you didn't wash your hands and you rubbed your eyes?
	You don't have fever.
	You don't have lung congestion.
	You don't have bird flu.
	The cows don't have bird flu.
	The cows are not sick.
	But let's kill them anyway, because that's what they want.
	A Michigan health official said, well, the risk to the public remains low.
	That's non-existent.
	There is no risk.
	This narrative is dead.
	Beat the parrot on the desk.
	A nasal swab from the person tested negative for the virus.
	See? They didn't even have a PCR test.
	But an eye swab tested positive, they said, indicating an eye infection.
	Oh, wow. Did he even have pink eye?
	That's the thing. Did he...
	Don't talk to me about these names.
	We've talked about this ad infinitum for four years, right?
	Some of these things come preloaded, you know, as Handy talked about in the hospitals in Atlanta.
	He said, you know, watch the person take it out of the bag and it tested positive.
	It didn't even rub it on anybody or anything.
	It came loaded. And, of course, they're magnifying it by 1.1 trillion times.
	Now, you notice that they didn't say his eye was all inflamed and he came to the doctor, can you help me with anything?
	No. We couldn't get it with a nasal swab.
	So then we swabbed his eye.
	They're not doing that to me.
	They didn't do the nasal swab to me.
	They're certainly not going to poke a Q-tip in my eye.
	No way. They just keep swabbing.
	You know, we couldn't find anything in the cows.
	So now we're going to start going through the sewer.
	That's what they're doing, right? Like I said, they're going to go through the milk.
	Oh, we found some. But don't worry.
	We found something that kind of matches up.
	It's remnants, they said, of bird flu.
	Well, then it's not bird flu.
	You didn't find any bird. If you found fragments or remnants of it, you didn't find anything, did you?
	Found it in the milk. Why don't you look in the eggs if it's bird flu?
	None of this makes any sense.
	Except you know where they want to go with it.
	It's absolutely ridiculous.
	So pink eye? Well, so far the virus has not appeared to have spread from person to person.
	Well, then, you know, pink eye is very contagious.
	But, uh, bird flu's not.
	Health officials are strongly advising against drinking raw milk.
	They put this in every article because they want to go after local farms.
	And they want to go after organic.
	Got to get your stuff from big agricultural concerns, from the factories, from the supermarkets.
	Don't think about going to the farm to get anything.
	We've got to get rid of those farmers out there.
	They're a threat to the system.
	Well, let's talk a little bit about pink eye and conjunctivitis.
	The Mayo Clinic says, well, it can be a lot of different things.
	It could be a foreign body in your eye.
	It could be a serious bacterial infection.
	It could even be transmitted sexually.
	Pink eye treatment is usually focused on symptom relief.
	Your provider may recommend using artificial tears or cleaning your eyelids with a wet cloth.
	Applying cold or warm compresses several times daily.
	If you wear contact lenses, you'll be advised to stop wearing them until treatment is complete.
	In most cases, you won't need antibiotic eye drops.
	Since conjunctivitis is usually viral, antibiotics won't even help.
	They may even cause harm by reducing their effectiveness in the future or by causing a medical reaction.
	So again, no antibiotics.
	It's a viral thing.
	And here's eight common myths about pink eye besides the fact that it's not bird flu.
	That's number nine.
	That's the new one. This was written before that.
	Conjunctivitis, usually called pink eye, is a very common eye condition.
	So, you know, just like we had before.
	Flu? Flu?
	Oh, it's now COVID. Flu's disappeared.
	We don't have anybody with flu anymore.
	Everybody's got COVID, though.
	But there are many misconceptions about it.
	So let's add a new one. It is not bird flu here.
	One misconception is that only children get pink eye.
	Well, no, you can get it with adults, especially if they're working on a farm, have dirty hands, and rub their eyes.
	Myth number two, you won't get pink eye if you don't rub your eyes.
	Well, touching your eyes with unclean hands is just one way that you can get conjunctivitis.
	The eye can become infected if it comes in contact with any contaminated object or substance, such as improperly cleaned contact lenses, or makeup, or lotion, or even the tip of an eyedrop, or gnats.
	When I was a kid, I talked about that before.
	In Florida, open windows in the school, no screens, no air conditioning.
	Anyway, pink eye is always infectious, and it's very, very contagious.
	That's right. So, how come they're not seeing more cases of this, right?
	Not all of them are infectious, but some of them are.
	One myth says you can't be born with conjunctivitis.
	Well, some newborns are born with conjunctivitis.
	Might be a blocked tear duct or something like that.
	Myth number five, you never need to go to the doctor for conjunctivitis.
	Why? Because people said that.
	You might want to go to the doctor because they say most of the time pink eye does not require special treatment.
	It gets better on its own.
	But, you know, there might be some things that your doctor does that make you more comfortable.
	How about that? Why are we talking about locking down the world and killing cattle and banning raw milk because some people on a farm have conjunctivitis?
	Myth number six, if you have eye redness, then it must be conjunctivitis.
	Well, you know, they said it could be glaucoma or something like that.
	But, you know, we know that if you have eye redness and you work with cows, It isn't conjunctivitis.
	It's bird flu. Absolutely, it's bird flu.
	So when we look at what these people are doing, and here is what is dangerous about all this stuff, is the way that it is being put out, and it's not just by CBS. It's not just by mainstream media or Drudge Report.
	Here is, this is from, this is a Breitbart article.
	And WND put it back out.
	Two conservative, Trump-supporting media organizations.
	Listen to the headline.
	CDC reveals secondary worker contracted bird flu.
	And then the subtitle.
	Sounding the alarm that the disease could be more dangerous than previously thought.
	They're pushing panic. These people are pushing this out as if they believe something the CDC said?
	Do you think that the CDC's got any credibility on anything?
	I don't. Why would WND and Breitbart push that as if it had credibility?
	What's the matter with them?
	What's the matter with you if you trust them?
	The CDC is just as dishonest and dangerous as always.
	And guess what? This Trump-sucking media is just as dangerous and dishonest as it was four years ago.
	John Nolte and these people at Breitbart pushing, you know, get your shot and all the rest of this stuff.
	And he got a lot of pushback from people who were there.
	But now, listen to what Breitbart says.
	The CDC revealed, a second dairy worker has it.
	This comes after another dairy worker who's been working on a farm in Texas experienced, listen to this, bleeding of the eyes.
	Not only is Breitbart stoking fear, they're lying to you about this.
	And they're enhancing this.
	And they're hyping it.
	And they're hyping it worse than mainstream media.
	They're hyping it worse than CDC. It's why?
	Because they know that their people are the most skeptical.
	Bleeding from the eyes.
	As if this is Ebola or something?
	It's conjunctivitis. There's no fever.
	There's no lung involvement.
	It's not flu. It's not bird flu.
	It's nothing you have to be concerned about.
	What you should be concerned about is how Breitbart and WND have been weaponized to push this stuff, just like they were a few years ago.
	Be careful and think about this.
	Don't trust any source of information.
	Think about what you're being told.
	Think about whether or not this makes any sense.
	Think about what happened the last four years, where this is being pushed.
	You better think, and you better get a backbone, because it's coming.
	The climate vaccines are coming for the cattle, then for the humans.
	I talked about this. Technocracy News picked it up again.
	Who gives Bill Gates and a bunch of lunatic bioscientists the right to inject life-altering substances into us, into all of the cattle, into other livestock that is critical for food?
	No one, he says.
	Well, yeah. Who gives these lunatic bioscientists the right to do this?
	It's done by the government.
	It's done by media.
	And it's done by right-wing media.
	Alternative media as well.
	You know what the truth is.
	And you need to apply that truth.
	Don't trust anyone because of who they are.
	And I would say don't rule out anybody because of who they are.
	Because you've had a disagreement with them on one thing or the other.
	Take it piece by piece.
	And, you know, this is part of the thing where they go in and censor everything that some news organization has done because they disagree, and they may not even be right.
	It could be the organization was right about one piece.
	Oh, no, now they're unreliable.
	They don't do that, by the way, the New York Times or the Washington Post.
	And I don't think we ought to do that to anything.
	I think we look at these things and we think about it.
	And don't believe anything simply because it's a news organization that gives it to you.
	Breitbart does not have any more credibility than the New York Times, quite frankly.
	Either one of them can get it wrong or they can get it right.
	It's up to you to think. Technocracy News said, I wrote in January, the only way to stop these genetic maniacs is to take away their key cards and their containment suits and to immediately escort them out of their laboratories, permanently ban them from any other scientific research for life, make sure they don't get any more government grants, and then raise the buildings to the ground.
	And so he's talking about this Archea bio that I talked about, was it last week or something, at $26.5 million, because they're coming up with a shot for farts.
	That's right. Got to have a vaccine so the cows don't fart and burp methane.
	So this is the perfect scam.
	This checks all the boxes that the elites want.
	Can't we just put Beano in their food?
	There was one that was called Windbreakers or something.
	I thought it was really funny. I saw that once.
	Can't we just fill up the trough with windbreakers instead of vaccinating them?
	Oh, no. We will have one solution.
	The solution always must be a vaccine, of course.
	A vaccine being developed by the company is designed to prevent the animals from releasing methane emissions.
	Once vaccinated with this shot, they say, and it's going to stop it, they haven't even tested it yet.
	But everybody wants this to happen, so they raised $26.5 million with a nice story that checked all the boxes.
	But it doesn't stop there.
	You've got several, and the reason I'm revisiting this is because they said, well, you know, there's other companies, Jinko Bioworks, another biofirm that's also backed by Bill Gates, are talking about making human climate vaccines.
	Right? You can't have Bino.
	You will get a shot instead.
	The World Economic Forum has expressed support for this approach.
	Vaccinate people to save the climate.
	This is a double MacGuffin.
	Double stupid.
	Double plus stupid, I think.
	GSK, the big pharmaceutical giant, GlaxoSmithKline.
	Said, in the face of climate change, vaccines play a crucial but underestimated role.
	AstraZeneca, those people have so much credibility after their climate vaccine.
	Last year, declared climate change to be a public health crisis.
	So, I don't know, maybe...
	The question is...
	The climate change jab for humans.
	Is it going to be there to stop the, put it politely, the emission of methane?
	What was it that Benjamin Franklin wrote that book?
	Emit methane proudly?
	Is it going to be to stop the emissions of methane by humans?
	Or is it just going to be a jab to kill us?
	Because that's really what the climate change agenda is about.
	It's about changing out the population.
	Getting rid of the technocrats and the elitists and all that.
	Getting rid of the unwanted eaters and methane emitters.
	Majority Council in the hearing where they had Francis Collins come in.
	Under questioning. And almost all of it was about this lab leak stuff.
	But this one part of it was relevant.
	I don't think that's relevant.
	I really don't. I think it's a misdirection.
	But listen to what he had to say about the six feet apart rule.
	The majority counsel asked him, said, moving on to social distancing and the various regulations surrounding that.
	On March the 22nd, 2020, Remember, this is only nine days after Trump did the money release to all the governors to implement the regulations that had been sent to them, model legislation that had been sent to them, two months after 9-11 and the anthrax attack the week after that.
	So Trump releases the money nine days later on March the 22nd, 2020.
	The CDC issued guidance describing social distancing to include remaining out congregant settings, avoiding mass gatherings, maintaining a distance of approximately six feet from others when possible.
	We asked Dr.
	Fauci where the six feet came from, and he said it kind of just appeared, is the quote.
	Do you recall science or evidence that supported the six feet distance?
	Dr. Collins said, I do not.
	So Fauci doesn't remember where it came from.
	Collins doesn't remember where it came from.
	Majority counsel said, is that I do not recall or I do not see any evidence supporting six feet?
	Dr. Collins, I did not see evidence.
	But I'm not sure I would have been shown evidence at that point.
	Majority counsel. Well, since then, it has been an awfully large topic for the public.
	Have you seen any evidence since then to support six feet?
	Dr. Collins, no.
	Was he gaslighted by the deep state?
	Oh, he is the deep state, right?
	This is what they do with Trump, right?
	The guy says, well, it's been a pretty big topic now for four years.
	Did you ever bother to look to see if there's any evidence for it?
	Just like with Trump. Yeah, it's been a pretty big topic, the fact that people are being killed by your shot.
	Did you ever do any research or follow up on that?
	Do you care about any of that stuff?
	No, no. He only cares about what happens to Donald Trump.
	Me, right?
	One thing is, you know, they go in most of this transcript that's been released and it's put out by Robert Malone.
	Almost all of it It's about whether or not Fauci, not Fauci, Collins, who's Fauci's boss at the NIH, whether or not they were knowingly giving money to these foreign labs to do gain-of-function research.
	Folks, that ship has sailed.
	This was not a pandemic.
	And I don't really care what kind of magic story you've got.
	As far as I'm concerned, right now, the whole idea that there was a pandemic is just as bogus and nonsensical as the fact that it came from bat soup.
	I really don't care. You shouldn't care either.
	It's all a distraction. It's a distraction from the fact that they had absolutely no evidence for six feet about the fact, and they were not asked, here's what they were not asked about, evidently.
	Or at least if they were asked, Dr.
	Malone was not interested in the answers about remdesivir.
	Didn't ask him about that.
	You see any evidence to support remdesivir's safety or its efficacy?
	Do you care? How about ventilators?
	How about the hospital bribery tactic where people are getting paid to do all this stuff?
	Hospital administrators are getting paid ridiculous amounts of money.
	What about the vaccines? You ever look at any of that kind of stuff?
	No, the only thing that they care about is the so-called origin of an imaginary pandemic.
	I care no more about the origin of the COVID-19 supposed pandemic than I care about the origin of Spider-Man.
	Or the Hulk.
	Or some other imaginary storyline that they use to make money.
	Yeah, we've got a big franchise out there for the Marvel Universe and the DC Universe.
	They've all got origin stories, don't they?
	Just like this pandemic.
	The question is, do you see the cover-up?
	Do you see the misdirection from the remdesivir, the ventilators, the hospital bribery, the vaccines, and the on and on, all this stuff.
	Do you see the misdirection to the lab and to the origin story?
	I think I do. I think that's about all I can see at this point in time.
	We'll be right back. You're
	listening to The David Knight Show.
	Travis wrote that they found remnants of bird flu.
	What is this? Some kind of viral archaeology?
	Well, you know, actually, that was one of the real uses of PCR, that he set it up for archaeology.
	If you find remnants of a civilization, you don't have to worry that they're going to start a war.
	That's right, absolutely. And on Rockfin, Dougalug, thank you for the tip.
	He writes, Happy Friday.
	Regarding Roku, he says, you can get the Rumble app on Roku and watch the David Knight show on the television. You can't participate in the chat when doing it that way, but the show is great on the big screen. He says, thank you, David. Well, thank you, and thank you for letting us know.
	I don't have time to monitor all this stuff.
	I mean, we put it on a lot of different places and, you know, Roku is good.
	We invested some money in that to try to get to a larger audience.
	But since we had a show that was taken down, it's good to know that it's still there.
	So please let us know if it disappears or if there's some other issues like that.
	And hopefully it will show up if you search for it.
	You can search for it on your search engine.
	You can search for it on Roku and other things like that.
	And I would just say, and thank you very much for the tip.
	Like I said, I don't monitor where the show is all the time, and I don't do enough to monitor the money, but it is scary bad this month.
	And so we really would appreciate it if you like what we're doing.
	If you would support us, you know, $5 a month.
	If everybody that downloads the video, not to even mention the people who watch it online, if they paid $5 a month, we would be doing great.
	We might wind up trying to get on one of these platforms something where people could subscribe there.
	One of them is offering it without fees.
	Which would be a big help.
	I just, you know, it's difficult when you, we wouldn't shut down the other ones.
	We'd leave them there so that people could still contribute there if they wanted to.
	And then if you didn't want to do it, we'd follow the model where we would stick ads in there, that type of thing.
	So, either way, if you could do a couple of free things, we would really appreciate it.
	Please like the stream wherever you're watching it.
	And that helps to get us some visibility.
	And we'd ask for your prayers as well.
	Really would appreciate that.
	Those two things don't cost you anything.
	That's right, folks. If you like the show, tell your friends.
	If you don't like it, tell your enemies.
	I completely stole that.
	That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard.
	But no, it actually does make sense.
	Thank you. Vaccine stocks blew up because they said we found another person in the United States.
	And we found somebody in Australia.
	We're looking so hard. Shares of vaccine companies surged, as Fauci would say.
	We got a surge here. We got a surge of the stocks.
	We got a surge of money.
	That's what they're really about, isn't it?
	Yeah, we got shares here.
	Forget about cases. We got shares.
	On Wednesday, the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services reported a farm worker who had high exposure to infected livestock developed mild symptoms and has recovered.
	Well, again, some people say they're presumed.
	They're presumed to be infected.
	And he was presumed to have it.
	A lot of...
	Presumptious stuff here. But listen to what happened to the stock.
	Moderna's stock jumped 14%.
	BioNTech, the German company that Pfizer marketed their garbage for, BioNTech up 11%.
	CureVac 18%.
	This is the company that's going to be, they say, well, you know, we got a little, Elon Musk was bragging about the fact that he was involved with CureVac and Tesla was involved with it.
	He says, we're creating these micro factories and they're going to be able to crank out mRNA for all kinds of stuff.
	And they also got money from Gates.
	So the Gates and Musk company, CureVac, and the German government, German government jumped into funding CureVac as well.
	So the German government, the Nazis, Gates and Musk, it went up 18%.
	18%! Wall Street is trading on the fact that these people are going to push this stuff out to us.
	Or that they'll push it out to the cattle.
	And they could, again, as I've said before, they could vaccinate us through our food supply.
	And they could vaccinate the cattle.
	There'd be more cattle for them to vaccinate than there are humans.
	And they could do it as much as they want.
	The cattle aren't going to complain.
	You know, they've treated us like cattle.
	They told us about herd immunity.
	But now they're going to do the real herd stuff and the real cattle.
	That's very concerning. And Novavax.
	Up 5.3%.
	But, you know, 11%, 14%, 18% for these other drug companies truly is disgusting.
	But as that is happening, they have already started manufacturing 4.8 million doses of bird flu vaccine.
	HHS... It's now, quote, advancing its pre-planned scandemic.
	It says shtfplan.com.
	Now advancing its pre-planned scandemic vaccines for the bird flu.
	The ruling class is going to be creating 4.8 million avian influenza shots along with a propaganda campaign to accompany it.
	Which, by the way, that was launched months ago.
	It's been iteratively...
	How do we do it?
	How do we get everybody to take this vaccine?
	We do it with disruption.
	We do it from the inside.
	And we do it iteratively.
	And they do it with alarm, and they do it iteratively from the inside.
	They've launched this propaganda campaign months ago to convince the slave class to get injected once again.
	According to the University of Minnesota's Don O'Connell...
	Health officials have identified a manufacturing line at one of its manufacturing partners for fill-and-finish steps without disrupting the production of seasonal flu vaccine, which they put in chicken eggs.
	Okay? Hmm.
	Yeah, they make the flu vaccine inside the chicken eggs forever.
	Currently, the vaccine is in bulk form and will be produced in multi-dose vials.
	Is this just another prepliant excuse to try to get whatever is in these syringes into the bodies of the slaves that are being ruled over?
	That's a rhetorical question.
	We all know the answer to that, don't we?
	And you can trust the FDA. You can trust the medical community.
	Or can you? Toxic metals have now been found in baby formula.
	And not just in one brand.
	All samples tested positive for very concerning levels of aluminum and lead.
	20 different types of formula were tested twice for this study, done by GMO Science.
	And so, you know, you would think that the Food and Drug Administration would be concerned about feeding lead to babies.
	No, no.
	I mean, they want to get rid of lead everywhere.
	My friend who worked at the EPA, um he also had a business where they were reselling um you know people would resell kids clothing and stuff like that or you know used items and um and he you know they would organize these cells where people would bring them in it's like a collective garage sale and they'd take a cut and it was kind of a side business that they had going on he said If the EPA that I work for puts this
	stuff through, they've got ridiculous regulations out there saying that you can't resell clothing.
	Because it might have lead, some microscopic amount of lead in the zipper, or some motorcycles or motorbikes because there might be lead on the tailpipes or something.
	I said, what do they think? People are going to go out and lick the tailpipes of these motorcycles after they buy them?
	What's the deal with all this stuff?
	That got defeated because it was so comprehensive.
	But they are so obsessive about things like that, but they don't check baby formula to see if it's got lead or to see if it's got aluminum.
	All of the samples tested positive for concerning levels of lead and aluminum, and some also tested positive for arsenic, cadmium, mercury.
	The mercury level in four samples exceeded the FDA limit for drinking water, and the cadmium level in both samples for one brand were nearly twice the level found in drinking water.
	Five samples tested positive for all five metals.
	So here's the plan for children.
	First, we try to abort them.
	That doesn't work. We try to poison them with vaccines, with food.
	And then we poison their minds in school with indoctrination, and then we can ultimately mutilate and sterilize them.
	How about that? Full-on plan.
	Where is that coming from?
	Is that satanic? And, you know, we talk so much about transgenderism, right?
	Well, there's something else called transgenic.
	This is the genetic modification of animals and things.
	And now they have a very strange use.
	I mean, you think it was strange that they've got a vaccine to stop cow farts.
	Well, this is genetic modification to make cows squirt insulin from their teats instead of milk.
	Because that's what we need, isn't it?
	Health Day News says, well, there may be an unexpected fix for the ongoing shortage of insulin.
	A brown bovine in Brazil recently made history as the first transgenic cow.
	So we've gone from these transgender freaks in the Biden administration.
	Now we're going to have transgenic cows.
	It's transhumanism and all the rest of this stuff.
	And here's the way they explained it.
	The quote... Mother Nature designed the mammary gland as a factory to make protein really, really efficiently.
	No, it was not Mother Nature.
	It was Father God who did it.
	And so we're going to fix that.
	We're going to change that.
	We can take advantage of that system to produce a protein that can help hundreds of millions of people worldwide.
	And Armageddon Pros says, well, this is exactly how technocrats view all life forms, including humans.
	We are all merely factories.
	That's what they said with the mRNA stuff, right?
	We're going to turn your body into a factory.
	We're going to inject you with this genetic code, and that's going to turn your body into a factory to create this stuff.
	And how do you turn that off?
	Well, maybe you don't.
	They view us all as factories to produce biologics for some pharmaceutical or industrial purpose, at least until AI figures out to achieve the same production capacity without us.
	Then we become utterly useless.
	I don't think they meant that as a pun.
	You got a cow that is producing insulin that way.
	I think they're utterly useless as far as I'm concerned.
	Will we be able to get raw insulin or will it have to be going filtered through the big agricultural, big pharmaceutical people?
	A biotechnology journal said using transgenic animals as bioreactors to produce proteins of pharmaceutical interest.
	I have no interest in that, but the pharmaceutical companies do.
	has been proposed as an efficient alternative to an increase in protein production while decreasing costs.
	The mammary gland is a tissue where post-translational modifications are possible for large-scale recombinant protein production.
	The first step in this process is to produce transgenic animals containing a transgene that drives recombinant protein expression in a tissue-specific manner in the mammary gland.
	Mad scientists.
	Given mad money, mad amounts of money by the government, the Federal Reserve, which can just make this stuff up out of thin air.
	The combination of gene transfer mediated by transgenic Lentavirus, an SCNT methodology used in this work, successively generated a transgenic calf that contains the gene to produce human pro-insulin in milk.
	And so, RTE says, Minister for Finance Michael McGrath has said a study by his department has concluded that up to one-third of jobs in Ireland could be at risk in the future from artificial intelligence.
	And he said that other studies estimated that AI will affect about two-thirds of employment in Ireland.
	So unless they can use us as some kind of a biological producing thing, they're not interested.
	And for the longest time, and I talked about how one of the big issues when our kids were young in the early 90s and school was in view, like, no, we're not going to do it because they're diagnosing all the boys with ADHD and they're giving them Ritalin and all other kinds of things like that.
	Well, it turns out these common medications for ADHD are linked to an increased risk of glaucoma, for example.
	And do they care? Of course they don't.
	Of course they don't. They'll continue to do that.
	On Rumble, Hal 9000 says, one flu over the cuckoo's nuts.
	That's right. One flu to rule us all.
	And it'll be a different flu from time to time.
	Rumble, Aldo the Apache.
	Thank you for the tip.
	That's very kind. Thank you.
	He says, here's my $5 and the rest of it's for nine feds that download but don't contribute.
	That's right. That's good.
	I like that. Rumble, Junk Silver.
	The cattle are almost as compliant with the vaccine mandates as Americans were in 2021 to 2022.
	South Patriot. Thank you for the tip.
	He says, the narrow gate is never the easy path.
	Thank you for staying vigilant and faithful.
	Well, thank you. Thank you for your support.
	We're going to take a quick break. We were just talking about Ireland.
	Let's do the 30 birds break here
	music playing...
	You're listening to The David Knight Show video.
	Yeah, Travis wrote to me and says, how come none of these mad scientists are working on ways to make dogs live to the age of 80?
	Yeah, actually what they're doing...
	Do something useful.
	What they're doing instead of that, Travis.
	You remember from Mars attack, how they transplanted the heads and the dog head got on the woman and vice versa.
	That's what they're working on, head transplants.
	Yeah, these people are insane and possessed, quite frankly.
	Well, let's talk about, I mentioned SpaceX is going to be launching a designer line of satellites for the intelligence community.
	As if, in a sense, the Starlink stuff is not enough.
	You know, the Internet was designed, as I said many times, especially social media, especially things like Twitter, for example.
	They were designed as a surveillance system.
	They were designed as a propaganda and surveillance system.
	And, of course, Elon Musk has referred to Twitter as a, you know, first step towards some kind of a hive mind type of thing.
	You don't think that he's scraping stuff off and looking at it.
	And, of course, artificial intelligence is all about scraping things off of the Internet.
	You know, the big competition for what they call compute, you know, big data, big, big, tremendous amounts of data.
	That's why they need to have this, they've got this insatiable appetite for power, so much so they're building their own lines of nuclear power plants that'll be their private stuff.
	Just amazing. And, of course, with Starlink, he's going to be putting up 20,000 or more satellites.
	You won't be able to see the stars in the sky because of his satellites, most likely.
	But, of course, anything he wants to do, anything the government wants to do, that's just fine.
	But that's not enough, because the spies need to have their own special thing.
	They don't have their own special cameras and other things like that to spy on people.
	SpaceX on Wednesday launched an inaugural batch of operational spy satellites that it built as part of a new U.S. intelligence network.
	Again, this stuff started as DARPA-NET. Yeah, before it became internet.
	It was DARPA, the DARPA psychologist, that came up with the idea of an internet.
	But, you know, this is especially, this is even more fine-tuned for other spy purposes.
	It's designed to significantly upgrade the country's space-based surveillance powers.
	The first deployment of several more that are planned for this year.
	SpaceX is building hundreds of satellites for the U.S. National Reconnaissance Office, says Reuters, an intelligence agency.
	And, of course, this will be a kind of military surveillance and spy, but who knows exactly what they'll use it for.
	SpaceX has become the world's largest satellite operator with its Starlink network, a commercial system of thousands of broadband Internet satellites, so tens of thousands, quite frankly.
	And so this is just to underscore the fact that it's a few points I would make about Elon Musk.
	Number one, he's not on our side.
	He is a technocrat who has openly embraced the demonic agenda of transhumanism.
	That's far more alarming than his Halloween costume picture that he has for his profile.
	He became the richest man in the world by doing everything that these globalist governments want.
	He's pushed the green agenda, he's pushing the surveillance state, all of this stuff.
	Alternative media like Rogan and Alex Jones worship this globalist.
	It just astounds me.
	They don't know.
	You really think they don't know?
	I know Alex does, but he worships him nevertheless.
	And, of course, MAGA thinks that he single-handedly saved free speech.
	Twitter itself is a surveillance system, folks.
	He's got his own purposes for this, but he's going to be left alone.
	Because he is so valuable to their agendas, the green agenda and other things, and because he's so valuable to them for the transhuman agenda and for the surveillance state agenda.
	You've seen him bow and scrape to Theory Breton out of the EU over their DSA regulations.
	All of social media, folks, is rope-a-dope.
	It's all there to spy on you.
	It's all there to nudge you in a different direction.
	And he's talked about Twitter being the hive mind, as I said.
	Fortunately, there are some things that there's some chinks in his Baphomet armor.
	And one of them that I think is very significant is the Cybertruck.
	And this was something that was put together.
	Who was the guy that did this? He's got a YouTube channel.
	Now, he is absolutely obsessed with hatred for Tesla, which I'm not.
	I've got a great friend who's got a Tesla.
	I've driven it. I enjoy driving it.
	You want to buy a car? That's fine.
	What I don't like is having an agenda shoved down my throat, being told that I have to buy a car.
	I don't like people being subsidized by the government, whether they're making the product that I want or not.
	And so for all those reasons, I oppose it.
	You know, the first time I ever interviewed Eric Peters, he's going to be on in the third hour.
	It was over. A fine article that he wrote calling Elon Musk the king of crony capitalism.
	That was like 12 years ago or something.
	And he already had several billion dollars of money that had been given to him.
	And he really was the king of crony capitalism, and it's gotten much worse.
	I don't like crony capitalism.
	I don't like bans.
	I don't like being coerced and having this and not being able to have that.
	So I have a problem with that.
	But this guy's looking at it, and he did a video, and he said, I think that Tesla is going to be a bigger failure, a bigger scam than Enron.
	Now, I don't believe that.
	I don't think that's... I mean, it's going to be tougher for them now that there's other companies that are out there that are competing with them and competing with the Chinese.
	But I think that he'll find a way to align himself with government, with foreign governments, even perhaps with the Chinese government to make this thing work.
	But what he did do was he put together a lot of stuff about the Cybertruck.
	And that was really bolstering his case that Tesla was going to fail.
	And so this is some clips here.
	And when you listen to this, if you're listening to it on audio, I'll just tell you in advance.
	They've got pieces falling off of it while people are driving down the road and, you know, incredibly expensive to replace.
	But one of the things, two of the things that were really amazing to me, you shut the hood, the front hood for the frunk, you know, because the batteries are underneath it, of course.
	And it's got a heavy hood there for the front trunk.
	And he said, people complained about injuring their fingers.
	And so the guy put it there, and just the way the thing, he said, he pulled it out.
	He said, look at this. It cut into my finger.
	He said, I can't move it. I think it broke it.
	And then they took carrots, and they dropped it.
	You'll see this in the video. And then the other thing is that with the Cybertruck, now I haven't seen this with the other Tesla cars.
	As a matter of fact, I've seen other Tesla cars going through flooded streets.
	And doing it better than a gasoline car because it didn't need to have air.
	You know, you see that with a Jeep.
	Sometimes I'll have some air intake that'll be up like a periscope type of thing.
	But since they're electronic, I guess, as long as the electronics are sealed, you know, you can just drive right through the water and people assume that would happen with a Cybertruck.
	I've seen videos, it's not in this one, I've seen videos of somebody with a Cybertruck just hitting a puddle.
	Wasn't even deep. It splashed up and the thing goes, you know, and then stops and it bricks it.
	And with the Cybertruck, you can't go through a car wash unless you put it in car wash mode to somehow protect something that gets broken.
	And, you know, even in a heavy rainstorm.
	So here's a clip about Cybertruck fails.
	And I think it tells us a great deal about Elon Musk.
	Go back and forth, Nate.
	If to solve sustainable energy, we have to have a pickup truck.
	So I present to you the Cybertruck.
	So I can go right. The right wheel is broken, so now the two wheels are pointing to each other.
	I'm going to put my finger completely flat against the Cybertruck this time.
	You believe in Elon or you don't?
	This is it. This is what you gotta throw down.
	Flat right here and see what happens.
	Ready? Ready? Ready? It really is the most...
	I didn't smash this finger.
	Okay, I can't even move my finger right now.
	I might have actually broken it.
	Look at how bad that puncture is.
	And one thing I am confident of saying is that it's an incredible product.
	It's a Hall of Famer, I think.
	...plagged with a very serious issue where the accelerator pedal can come off and get lodged up in the floorboard, causing the vehicle to be pressed down to 100% acceleration.
	So it looks like there's a bolt here, and the bolt just came undone, just vibrated out.
	At Kira Tesla we have the finest in apocalypse technology.
	And it went all the way here, and now it's totally bent right there.
	How tough is your truck?
	At this point, I think I know more about manufacturing than anyone currently alive on Earth.
	I would literally take a bullet for Elon.
	What Elon is doing is more important for the future of my children than anything I'm doing.
	Oh, man.
	It didn't go through. Elon is doing more for the planet than more for my children.
	Just for what he's doing, he's doing more for my children than I am.
	It can obliterate a child's arm?
	We have a car here that experts said was impossible.
	That experts said would...
	Never be made. Carrot chopping.
	Here's a plate. Looking at the company, you look at all the improvements that are happening.
	You know, when people say, oh, you know, everything's on fire, like, well, what am I missing?
	Things are going really well.
	I don't know if you're watching what the company does.
	Yeah, I mean, we dug our own grave with Cyger soundtrack, you know.
	I think it's our best product.
	Every big digs are great better than themselves.
	Ah, Cybertruck.
	The $100,000 truck whose warranty can be voided if you take it to a car wash.
	And don't put it in car wash mode.
	Or a truck that you shouldn't wash in the sunlight.
	Which is maybe why the delivery event was conducted at night.
	Make sure that whatever you're doing is a great product or service.
	It has to be really great I turned off-road mode on while parked in a parking lot.
	After a few minutes, I heard a pop and the suspension lowered.
	I couldn't even off-road in a parking lot.
	But if you're entering anything where there's an existing marketplace against large entrenched competitors...
	Trucks have been the same for a very long time.
	Like a hundred years.
	Your product or service needs to be much better than theirs.
	It can't be a little bit better.
	Tesla is saying it will take a month to fix.
	Please help. Only had the Cybertruck for a week.
	Had the Cybertruck for four days, and then this part blew off on the highway, and I can't find it.
	On the way home after purchasing my Cybertruck, the window cracked.
	It looks like a manufacturing defect, yet the service center wants to charge me $2,300.
	My Flagstaff charger was having issues staying on, and now it bricked my Cybertruck.
	Can't get in. No power.
	And there's the wheel.
	So now the two wheels are facing each other.
	Wait, there's more.
	This one was completely bricked after four days of ownership.
	This one broke down after driving off the lot and driving only 35 miles and then had to be picked up and towed back to the service center.
	Day one, and I already need a new high-voltage battery.
	So, a lot of times, an entrepreneur will come up with something which is only slightly better.
	And it can't just be slightly better.
	It's got to be a lot better. Yeah.
	We see this happening with Boeing, right?
	A lot of people are talking about, what is going on with Boeing?
	One failure after the other.
	Well, you know, there is something that is common with Boeing and with Musk, and that is their connection to the military-industrial complex and the government's.
	And somehow that covers a multitude of sin, doesn't it?
	Well, the artificial intelligence relies on mass surveillance, warns the boss of Signal, the encrypted messaging app, Signal.
	Who knew, right?
	That's what I've been saying about this from the very beginning.
	I believe that is its core function, just like I believe its core function of the Internet, especially social media, is surveillance and propaganda.
	She's only talking about the surveillance side of this.
	I think it has a dual purpose.
	AI, just like the social media, is about surveillance and propaganda.
	And then, of course, to team AI with universal basic income because both welfare, which is what universal basic income is, it's a universal welfare program.
	It's there to create dependence, and so is artificial intelligence.
	It's there to create dependence on them, to surveil you, to manipulate you with lies.
	The AI tools at CrunchNumbers generate text and videos and find patterns in data rely on mass surveillance and exercise concerning control over our lives, said the boss of encrypted messaging app Signal yesterday.
	The AI technologies we're talking about today are reliant on mass surveillance, she said.
	They require huge amounts of data.
	That are the derivatives of this mass surveillance business model that grew out of the 90s in the U.S. It's a business model, but you are the product, right?
	They're selling your information to corporations.
	They're selling your information to the government.
	And the business model is a model of mass surveillance.
	Who do you think... Would it be the CIA that set up its own venture capital firm?
	Would it be the NSA and the CIA and all the intelligence community that had all of these high-ranking officials setting on the venture capital boards that picked the competitors and then allowed them to fight it out amongst themselves?
	The competitors that became Facebook and Google and these other things.
	Whitaker, who spent years working for Google before helping to organize a staff walkout in 2018 over working conditions, established the AI Now Institute in New York University in 2017.
	She now campaigns for privacy and rails against the business models built on the extraction of personal data.
	She is clear that she has no confidence that the AI industry is developing in the right direction.
	This is somebody who...
	Seven years ago, had created the AI Now Institute.
	She says, wait a minute, this thing has become dangerous.
	It is not serving our needs.
	Why is it not serving our needs?
	She said, the power imbalances created by this industry is controlled by a handful of surveillance giants that are largely unaccountable.
	Most of us are not the users of AI. If you think you're really using AI, you don't understand what the real purpose of AI is.
	The real purpose of AI is to use you.
	She said most of us are subjected to its use by our employers, by law enforcement, by governments, by whoever it is.
	They have their own goals, but they may not be the goals that benefit us or that benefit society.
	That's right. It is the artilect war.
	It is the artilect class, the artificial intelligence class, that is at war with us.
	These people even have their own private grid, but she said a striking example is the way that AI firms like to say that they're going to find solutions to the climate crisis.
	They're going to have their own private grid.
	While they tell you that you must shut down, while their artificial intelligence chatbots Parrot the lies of the UN and all these different globalist organizations like Davos and so forth.
	Ultimately, she argued Europeans should not be thinking in terms of competing with the bigger American AI firms.
	She said another option would be to reimagine tech that can serve more democratic and more rights-preserving or pluralistic societies.
	I don't know what her vision is, but I think in general she's right.
	You know, we get into this arms race type of thing.
	And I think people need to understand that it's already too late to beat these people.
	They're too entrenched, they're too big, they're too monopolistic.
	The way you beat something that is entrenched like that, the way you beat...
	We've seen this over and over again, and regardless of any antitrust legislation that somebody might put out there to try to stop John D. Rockefeller, after he's gotten to a certain critical mass, you're not going to be able to stop it.
	What you can do is you can come up with something that is an alternative.
	And these were setbacks for John D. Rockefeller as he was building his empire.
	First, he thought he had everything cornered.
	He thought he'd cornered the world market on oil because nobody knew where it was coming from except in Pennsylvania.
	He was somebody who bought his way out of the Civil War.
	You could do that. If you had money, instead of being drafted and sent to fight, you could pay money and get out.
	And so he paid money and he got out.
	Now, as the North was going to war with the South, they cut off turpentine.
	Major export from the south up to north, and they needed it for a lot of different things.
	And so they found a substitute for lamp oil and things like that initially in Pennsylvania.
	It's kind of like the Beverly Hillbillies.
	Up through the ground comes a bubbling crude oil, that is.
	Instead of going to Beverly Hills, however, what he did was he doubled down and he went to Pennsylvania where there was already a bunch of refiners that were there, operating there.
	Very crude beginning process of that.
	And what he did was he started buying them up and getting a monopoly.
	And he was successful in terms of cornering that market.
	And he had a monopoly on that.
	And then somebody discovered oil in Texas.
	Oh, uh-oh. So what's he going to do about that?
	Well, he creates Standard Oil of Ohio so that he can control the oil that is coming up from Texas and these other places with refineries up in Ohio before it's redistributed.
	And they discover oil in the Middle East.
	This is getting complicated.
	But the bottom line is that this can happen not just with discoveries of the raw material somewhere else, but if they change the technology.
	And so what she's saying is actually true.
	You know, we need to, instead of trying to beat these people at their own game, we need a different game.
	And there's a lot of people out there who want a different game.
	They want a game that isn't focused like the internet and like these social media companies, that isn't focused on us as the product.
	We need to have a way to look at this.
	And so, again, if there are technologists out there who are going to do that, I think that would be the winning solution.
	And George Gilder thought that would happen.
	He thought it would happen. Even sooner than now, when he wrote Life After Google, he said, look, I'm already in my 80s, I'm not going to live very long, but I think I'll live to see the end of Google because their business model is exploitation and manipulation.
	And people don't want that. And people want privacy instead.
	And if somebody comes up with something that has privacy built in as a foundational aspect instead of added after the fact on the side, he said that would really sell.
	So what are you talking about? You know, Tesla and Cybertruck, it's okay.
	But, you know, with all these things, the government's not really concerned about it.
	And the same thing is true of Boeing.
	Nearly 300 Boeing 777s used by United and American Airlines are at risk for exploding fuel tanks.
	They're like flying Pintos or something, right?
	And we don't care. The 777.
	Poor electrical insulation nears fuel tank that can cause fire or explosion.
	Is this a redesign?
	I mean, this thing has been around since the 1990s, early 1990s.
	It could be, you know, I'm sure that they've redesigned a lot of things in the last 30 some odd years.
	And they're probably making it in different locations and making it differently.
	And so these may be things that have just newly cropped up.
	So they've got some fixes for it, but, you know, the projected cost to fix this is about $700,000.
	Will they ground these things?
	Will they penalize Boeing?
	Well, they're not going to put Boeing out of business because, just like Elon Musk, Boeing is a very important contractor for them.
	And I wonder if they're going to put the DEI out of business in the schools.
	You know, it's not just a problem when they're protesting Israel, is it?
	It's a much bigger problem than that.
	This has been foundational for quite some time, but nobody cared.
	They kept donating money.
	Government kept giving them money.
	And now we look at UCLA. Up to half of UCLA's medical students now fail basic tests of medical competence.
	And whistleblowers are saying that it's because of affirmative action and because of a particular human resources person who has come in.
	They kind of trace the collapse to her coming into the school.
	It's been illegal in California to have affirmative action since 1996, but she put it back in.
	And a lot of people are saying it's now a failed medical school.
	It gets as many as 14,000 applications a year.
	And out of those 14,000, it only accepted 173 students last year in the admission cycle.
	That's only 1.3% of the admissions of the people who apply get admitted.
	And because of its reputation, they get that many different applications.
	A median matriculant Took difficult science courses in college and earned a 3.8 grade point average.
	And so that's the median.
	So half the people had a score above that.
	Half of them had a score below that.
	But half of them had a score above that.
	Without those stellar stats, some doctors at the school say that students can struggle to keep pace with the demanding curriculum.
	So when it came time for the admissions committee to consider one such student in November of 2021, a black applicant with grades and test scores far below the average at UCLA, some members of the committee felt that this particular candidate was not the best fit for the top-tier medical school.
	Their reservations were not well-received.
	There was a dean of admissions, Jennifer Lucero.
	She exploded in anger.
	Did you not know African American women are dying at a higher rate than everybody else, she said?
	That's her justification for it.
	Well, maybe she needs the best quality doctor regardless of what their skin color or gender or ethnicity or whatever is, don't you think?
	Don't you think that'd be most beneficial to African American women?
	Don't we want to have the best medical care out there?
	The candidate's scores shouldn't matter, she said, because we need people like this in the medical school.
	Well, within three years of her being hired in 2020, UCLA dropped from sixth to 18th place in the U.S. News & World Report's rankings for medical research.
	More than 50 percent of students failed standardized tests on emergency medicine, family medicine, internal medicine, and pediatrics.
	Those tests, known as shelf exams, are typically taken at the end of each clinical rotation.
	They measure basic medical knowledge and they play a pivotal role in residency applications.
	Though only 5 percent of students fail each test nationally, the rates were much higher at UCLA, having increased by tenfold since this woman became the admissions director.
	Thank you.
	Yeah. When we come back, we're going to take a look at...
	And how some of this stuff has worked its way out.
	But I want to respond to some of the people who have left some comments here.
	Rockfin, William Wallace.
	Good to see you. Wave your claymore there.
	Trying to get my wife to see the string that connects Lex Rex and Romans 13 and the Lesser Magistrate is like pulling teeth.
	Well, yeah, it is there.
	You know, the law is our king, isn't it?
	The law is our king. And it's good.
	And when we look at Romans 13 and the doctrine of the lesser magistrate, these moral codes never go away.
	And when you look at it, the question is, when it says that the government is your authority for good, is it saying that, well, because it's the government, it's by definition good?
	Or is it saying that legitimate government is going to be good?
	Because legitimate government is going to follow the rule of law instead of being a tyrannical dictator.
	That's the way that I read it.
	Especially if you go through and you substitute for government, substitute the archetypal cartoon, the Nazis.
	You know, the Nazis are God's agent for your good.
	Is that right? Is that really true?
	There's a cognitive dissonance there if you substitute that word for government there, because that's kind of the placeholder for people, their mind of what authoritarian government is.
	Owen 61, thank you for the tip.
	Thank you very much. He says, my donation for the development of insulin squirting cows.
	Thank you. AGK, thank you for the tip.
	Had to make it through 10 seconds of Trump Jr.
	and Trump begging for money. I'd rather have David have my money.
	Well, thank you. On Rockfin, Tornator, thank you for the tip.
	Writes, Happy Friday, David.
	God bless you and your family.
	I was wondering if you thought about taking listener phone calls.
	I was also wondering if you could post some videos of you playing music sometime.
	I'd love to see you playing the various instruments in your arsenal.
	Anyway, I hope you and all your listeners have a nice Memorial Day weekend.
	Well, thank you very much. Well, to answer some of those questions...
	Let's see. In terms of phone calls, we talked about doing it.
	We have a very complicated setup here.
	It's on me to get it figured out, and I just haven't been able to, because I think it's going to require me to basically disassemble the entire studio and reroute the wiring.
	Yeah, it's kind of grown ad hoc over the years, hasn't it?
	As we've added, we started out just a few different places, and as we added other places, you've kind of added that on the side.
	I've got bags on the side of the bags I have on the side.
	So that's a technical thing.
	But then the reason I haven't really pushed him on it is because I think when we have these types of things, and we have email comments and stuff like that, I can go through them really quickly.
	What I would like to do is I would like to take more comments from people, and I think we'll do that on Fridays.
	And, you know, people can...
	Ask me anything. They can do it live on these chat streams or they can do it with emails or with letters or whatever.
	And I think that would be good because people have a lot of interesting comments.
	And I've got a couple here that I didn't get to yesterday.
	I'm going to try to get to. So we're going to take a quick break.
	And in terms of pictures of me playing, that probably is not going to happen either.
	You know, the time that I've got is I didn't want to make it all about me.
	And, you know, we're doing the music because it's not even really about the music that I'm doing for the show.
	There's a lot of other music that I'm working on and that I'm trying to get done.
	And these are songs that I wrote that are Christian songs.
	They're really kind of just kind of part of my private personal time that I've done for a couple of decades now.
	And we've done them.
	We've had some home meetings and things like that for people, and some of them I haven't put out before.
	So those are things that I was really blessed to have, just enjoyed them myself.
	Music that I liked combined with some passages out of the Bible that I really liked.
	And that's really kind of my focus, and I have so little time to do that, I probably don't have time to get the other stuff done.
	We're going to take a quick break, and we'll be right back.
	We're gonna play something here with a whistler joining me on this.
	♫ whistling a tune ♫
	You're listening to the David Knight show.
	Well, I...
	Well, maybe you have seen it by now, but this video that I'm going to play for you of these women screaming in the forest and banging sticks and stuff and paying $4,000 to do it.
	These awful women.
	And again, for the love of the road, I think it was told me that it was Michael Malice who came up with that acronym.
	Affluent, white, female, ultra-liberals.
	But Jesse Waters was intrigued by it, and he had this woman who was running this scam.
	Come on. And she's a witch!
	And there was somebody who used to be in the occult, who is now a Christian, an ex-psychic, she says she is.
	And she said, you're pushing, this is not the first time that Jesse Waters has done this.
	It's the third time that he's done this.
	And she said, you're pushing doctrines of demons.
	He brings her on and he says, oh, I like you, witch.
	I guess she's a waters witch, right?
	So a former psychic, repented of witchcraft to become a Christian, hit out of Fox News for doing this for the third time, especially Jesse Waters.
	And the chyron there says, woman's sacred rage released in the forest.
	Is it? Is it sacred?
	So they talked about this rage ritual, and he put out on Twitter, he said, Why are women so angry?
	Well, because they're awful.
	They're affluent white female ultra-liberals.
	He says, Rage ritual leader and witch, Mia Magic, explains how she's helping women get it all out.
	Well, here's what it looks like.
	I feel sad they're screaming.
	They're beating things.
	It is amazing what we are ginning up in our society, isn't it?
	The anger, the rage, the hatred.
	And, you know, you see this sometimes when you talk to these people when they're doing a political protest.
	They do everything but beat you with a stick, I guess.
	Maybe they do that sometimes as well.
	Her retreats cost $4,444.
	Why should you just make it $6,666?
	$8,000 if you go to France.
	Banducci also offers a six-week witch school that purports to offer a crash course in occult practices, such as circle casting, communicating with spirit animals, casting spells, chakra balancing, astrology, and various other rituals to obtain one's own desires.
	That costs $333, or three monthly payments of $133.
	Waters' interview with her I covered that as well.
	Remember that? You had her on, they did a tarot card reading on Fox News, and now, you know, I first saw this, I just thought these are, you know, crazy, enraged women, you know, just screaming out there, but it is a witchcraft type of thing as well.
	In April, Fox and Friends brought on an astrologer to explain to Steve Doocy, Brian Kilmeade, Ainsley Earnhardt, and Lawrence Jones how the solar eclipse could affect someone's entire life.
	For at least six months.
	She also offered broad predictions for each of the Fox and Friends anchors based on their astrological charts.
	So this former psychic, former occultist, condemned the practices to their doctrines of demons, emphasized the danger that she believes Fox News is posing for viewers by promoting this uncritically.
	She said, Banducci's solutions are not solutions at all.
	They're expensive. She said healing can only be found in Jesus Christ and in the fatherhood of God.
	She said the problem with this is that, number one, you're pointing to something demonic.
	You're pointing to man.
	You're pointing to the devil to heal your traumatic wounds, and it can't heal.
	Beating the earth until you're blue in the face cannot heal you.
	Opening demonic doors by going to something that's led by a witch leads to further oppression.
	So you're not going to the problem for the solution.
	This is such a complete, disgusting, demonic contradiction.
	She says it's the opposite of God's word, and that's the agenda.
	The money is the icing on the cake because you're not going to have the devil without money.
	You're not going to have Fox News without the money.
	Therefore, they're made of wood.
	Demons don't heal.
	Demons don't care about your daddy issues.
	They don't care. They just want you to stay away from God.
	She said, Fox News, please do me a favor.
	Please stop putting diviners on your channel.
	I'm begging you. The devil is using you.
	Well, we've already seen them be used to push pharmakia, haven't we?
	And it was the money thing that was there, wasn't it?
	Maybe we should start calling them the Fox Witch Doctors.
	Last July, an investigation by The Blaze revealed that Fox Corporation was willing to match Fox News employee donations up to $1,000 to a number of far-left organizations, including the Satanic Temple.
	Fox News never publicly addressed the revelation that emerged from multiple sources within the company, though it removed the Satanic Temple from its giving portal days after The Blaze reported it.
	And then a follow-up to, again, this guy Harrison Butker.
	He is just the gift that keeps on giving, isn't he?
	You've now got a Jesuit journal that is trashing him.
	This is a story from Breitbart.
	Because, of course, you know, Marxists hate family as well as religion.
	These Jesuit Marxists.
	American Magazine, the U.S. Jesuit flagship publication, has joined atheists and liberal elites in blasting NFL kicker Harrison Butker for his conservative Catholic-themed commencement address at Benedictine College.
	Zach Davis, an associate editor at America, wrote of the speech...
	He said it goes beyond legitimate conservative liberal differences.
	He said it's backwards.
	He said Pope Francis, another Marxist Jesuit, has warned about this repeatedly throughout his papacy.
	There is a fashion, he said, in this age of the church's life to, quote, step back.
	Not going up or down, but backward.
	He said, this backstepping makes us a sect, and it makes you closed, and it cuts off your horizons.
	Well, I would like to see what is the Jesuit vision of family.
	Do they want it to exist? To me, these people who are criticizing it, just like these Jesuits, they're not offering any positive alternatives.
	Also, I seem to remember Jesus saying something about how he was a sword, and he would divide or cut off you from other people.
	Yeah, that's right.
	He said, I don't think I came to bring peace, but bring a sword, and you'll have family relatives opposing each other over me, that part of it.
	But again, do they have a positive vision of this?
	It reminds me of when Karen was doing that protest at the Austin Abortion Center, Planned Parenthood.
	And holding up signs saying abortion is black genocide.
	And these people, first time we ever saw Antifa, they show up and they've got all black signs.
	They had nothing to say. They just want to shut down what you're doing.
	Those Antifa Marxists, these Jesuit Marxists, they have nothing to say.
	They're anti-family, anti-God, and they just want to shut you up.
	And that's really what the Satanic Temple is about as well.
	They don't believe anything.
	They just want to shut down and attack what you believe.
	Benedictine College was recently featured in a report from the AP, and the headline was, A Step Back in Time.
	See? Talking about going backwards.
	Catholic League President Bill Donahue observed, he said, it's striking to see people like Whoopi Goldberg and Bill Maher speak in defense of Harrison Butker while the Catholics at America, that Jesuit magazine, criticize him.
	And, of course, they're not the only ones who do that.
	And it's not just these Jesuits and all these liberals.
	Here is an A woman who identifies herself as an NFL cheerleader.
	She is awful as well.
	Affluent, white, female, ultra-liberal.
	Listen to this. This is absolutely amazing.
	First and foremost, until a few months ago, we were both employed by the Kansas City Chiefs.
	I cheered you on for six years straight.
	And with that, I would assume we went to the same PR training.
	But since all of that obviously left your f***ing brain when you went to go give that speech, I thought I'd be a good co-worker.
	Share my notes. Let's get started.
	Boy, she's deranged, isn't she?
	These are f***ing fake. Biggest takeaway is you now represent a billion-dollar organization.
	You are no longer just Harrison Butkart.
	You are now Harrison Butkart, who plays for the Kansas City Chiefs.
	And anything you say or do that doesn't align with that brand...
	Just like the lesbians you hated in that video.
	Will be grounds for term.
	Yeah, isn't she amazing?
	You know, I looked at that and...
	What a peach. She's not going to die alone.
	I can understand somebody like that being so over-the-top outraged that she acts like that.
	But how in the world do you explain somebody who acts like that, you know, so cocky and everything, and then puts it out?
	She's proud of that.
	You know, most people, if they saw themselves in a mirror doing something like that, they would just cringe and recoil at it.
	But she publishes it.
	Absolutely amazing.
	And of course, she's equivalent to the guy who kicked the winning Super Bowl field goal because she was a cheerleader there.
	Well, Campus Crusade for Christ apparently now is ashamed of the term crusade, as ashamed of crusade as they are of Christ.
	They just call themselves crew.
	And they are embracing the LGBT agenda.
	And they have active materials that are supporting it.
	Crew, formerly Campus Crusade for Christ, has been subjecting its staff to nearly seven hours of video materials promoting SSA, same-sex attraction.
	They call that Side B Christianity.
	No such thing.
	Promoting patently unbiblical and damaging views on gender, sex, sin, and marriage.
	Rachel Gilson telling Crew staffers that God is powerless over homosexual attraction.
	They've got a different God then.
	God's not powerless over anything.
	God has provided mercy to Christ to pay for your sins so that he can be both just and merciful.
	But it doesn't just end there.
	God can save you from the power of sin, regardless of what sin it is.
	These people have absolutely lost all contact with Christianity at the most fundamental levels.
	So comparisons between the church's supposed bad treatment for the LGBT community and Nazi treatment of gays, full acceptance of homosexuality and transgender as cultures, needing gospel contextualization like any other ethnicity.
	Well, first of all, they're not ethnicities.
	Secondly, The good news doesn't change for different ethnicities.
	That's why I said, I don't even know what these people are about.
	Within various training videos, crew staff are encouraged to agree with and to live out our theological teachings, both side A, open homosexuality and Christianity, and side B, celibate homosexuality, and to accept the unbiblical propositions that God creates people as homosexual and as transgender.
	Trainees are encouraged to change how they believe instead of what they believe in order to be sensitive to the LGBT community.
	Well, you see, these LGBT and other college ideologies, many of them, are supposedly putting themselves out there as if they are tolerant, but they're not.
	Instead, they demand not that you tolerate, but that you celebrate what other people do.
	And as a result, they're in direct contradiction to the Bible, so they just reject it.
	You know, it's kind of interesting, too, to see that the fruit of this intolerance is now applying to everything.
	You know, all political, religious stuff.
	Even Richard Dawkins sees it.
	On university campuses, the principle of free speech, when I think that the old university I went to, University of California at Berkeley, the free speech movement in the 1960s, what a betrayal we're seeing now.
	Right. Campuses all over the Western world, America and Britain, are denying people the right to come and speak at campuses.
	If you can't speak your mind on a university campus, where can you?
	I mean, that's what universities are about.
	It's about free speech.
	It's about being exposed to ideas that you haven't met before, perhaps you're hostile to.
	If you only ever get exposed to ideas that you agree with, what kind of a university would that be?
	Yeah, the kind that we've got now.
	Look, we have big disagreements with Richard Dawkins, but, you know, we have an agreement that we have a right to agree, to disagree, and he's been involved in a lot of debates, and I think, I like to see that, because I think he's been soundly defeated.
	You know, it's kind of interesting, I saw a short clip, and I'll show this to you.
	This was Christopher Hitchens.
	Who, again, was one of the new atheists and wrote things like, God is not great and so forth.
	This is two years before he died.
	He was doing a debate with Doug Wilson.
	And they're in the back of a car, and I don't know if they're coming from the debate or going to the debate, but here's what Christopher Hitchens had to say.
	Two things I thought were very interesting.
	One of them was what he had to say about what he thought the most difficult argument for him to handle, for atheists to explain.
	And the second one was to talk about the fact that he doesn't really want to see Christianity go away.
	At some point, certainly, we're all asked, well, which is the best argument you've yet come up against from the other side?
	I think every one of us picks the fine-tuning one.
	That's the most intriguing.
	The Golden Glocks one. Fine-tuning the one degree, well, one hair different to nothing.
	Even though it doesn't prove design, doesn't prove designer, could all have happened without...
	You have to spend time thinking about it, working on it.
	It's not a trivial...
	We all say that.
	And then at one point, I think this is not on camera, I said...
	If I could convert everyone in the world, not convert, if I could convince, this would be non-believer.
	I've really done brilliantly, and there was only one left.
	One more. And then it would be done.
	There would be no more religion in the world.
	No more deers. I wouldn't do it.
	And Tolkien said, what do you mean you wouldn't do it?
	And I said, I don't quite know why I wouldn't.
	And it's not just that there would be nothing left to argue with and no one left to argue with.
	It's not just that.
	There would be that. Somehow, if I could drive it out of the world, I wouldn't.
	And the incredulity with which he looked stays with me still.
	Ah, isn't that interesting?
	And he recounts the conversation he had with Richard Dawkins, and he said, you know, if I could absolutely defeat Christianity, he said, and to the point where there's only one person left, and I would not try to eradicate that.
	And he said, and it's not just because I wouldn't have anybody to argue with.
	He just loves to argue for the sake of arguing.
	It's an intellectual exercise for these guys, the debates.
	He goes, it would be that.
	But he goes, there's something else about it.
	And he said, Dawkins looked at me with incredulity and could not understand what that was about.
	He said, it was a look that stays with me to this day.
	That's two years before he died.
	It's 2007 or 2009 they did that.
	But here we are about 15 years later, let's say.
	And we saw about a month or so ago We had Richard Dawkins now essentially saying the same thing.
	Cultural Christian. I thought it'd be interesting to show you these quotes that we had from Richard Dawkins.
	I played them. And Doug Wilson, who was sitting there, you didn't hear him say anything, but again, they were on their way to or from a debate.
	And this is Doug Wilson responding to what Richard Dawkins said about a month or so ago, almost two months now.
	But before I do, real quickly, the other argument, what was the most difficult thing for him?
	He said the fine-tuning aspect, that if things are just a thread differently, everything goes apart, right?
	You know, nothing works.
	Everything flies apart.
	Everything is so precisely tuned.
	You've had scientists who say, well, you've got the anthropomorphic principle.
	It looks like the universe was designed specifically to support human life on Earth.
	But we know that can't be true.
	It looks like the DNA was designed by someone who's intelligent, and people discovered it and said, yeah, that's got to be the case, but it can't be God, right?
	Well, we had all this stuff just came together by accident, and it's so precisely and finely tuned, and it doesn't even have anything.
	It's over and above.
	Even their evolutionary, biological evolutionary things.
	We're talking about the distance of the...
	Earth to the sun, you know, a little bit closer, we'd burn up or freeze if it was a little bit further, all these different types of things.
	All of them together, and there's so many of them there.
	That argue for the presence of God.
	It's why even the ancients said, the fool has said in his heart, there is no God.
	But here's what Dawkins said about cultural Christianity and Doug Wilson responding to it.
	Well, I must say, I was slightly horrified to hear that Ramadan is being promoted instead.
	I do think that we are culturally a Christian country.
	That is true. All right.
	Let's have a little fun with this.
	I'm agreeing with Richard Dawkins.
	I'm agreeing with Richard Dawkins thus far.
	I call myself a cultural Christian.
	I'm not a believer. But there's a distinction between being a believing Christian and being a cultural Christian.
	So, you know, I love hymns and Christmas carols, and I sort of feel at home in the Christian ethos.
	I really love apples, particularly the cosmic crisp spoons.
	I don't abide with orchards at all.
	Orchards are a real problem.
	Orchards are problematic.
	Apples, however, are great.
	That we are a Christian country in that sense.
	It's truth that statistically the number of people who actually believe in Christianity is going down.
	The orchard is diminishing, but three cheers for apples.
	And I'm happy with that, but I would not be happy if...
	In fact, Chainsaw the Orchard...
	For example, we lost all our cathedrals and our beautiful parish churches.
	And the produce section is safe way.
	We want to continue to go there and continue to enjoy our apples.
	I count myself a cultural Christian.
	I think it would matter if we, certainly if we substituted any alternative religion, that would be truly dreadful.
	Yes, it would be truly dreadful.
	What's happening here is...
	Secular non-believers, atheists, are finally coming to grips with the fact that what we have been warning about for decades is coming to pass.
	And they don't like the fact that it's coming to pass.
	But I'm really grateful that Dawkins is acknowledging that he at least likes the fruit of the tree.
	Doesn't believe in the tree, but he likes the fruit.
	Well, so do we. Which brings me to my supernatural point, which is that, as we know, church attendance is plummeting, but the building, the erection of mosques across Europe, I think 6,000 are under construction and there are many more, I mean, are being planned. So do you think you regard that as a problem?
	Do you think that matters? Yes, I do, really.
	I mean, I choose my words carefully.
	I mean, if I had to choose between Christianity and Islam, I choose Christianity every single time.
	Amen. Okay. Amen.
	And I would give it maybe 2,000 more mosques being built, and he presents himself for baptism.
	I mean, it seems to me to be a fundamentally decent religion in a way that I think Islam is not.
	So, this is one of the taunts that has been thrown at Christianity, that it's a decent middle-class way of, you know, opium of the masses.
	It gets everybody to clean up and shower and go to church and live an orderly life.
	And it's starting to dawn on people that...
	Being surrounded by people who worship disorderly gods or gods of raw power is going to be no picnic at all.
	Yeah, that's a great word.
	The gods of raw power.
	As you saw with these people screaming in the forest, the offals, the effluent white female ultra-liberals.
	Those would be the gods of, of no compassion of raw power or that cheerleader who thinks that she is the most important thing and she's more important than the field goal kicker who killed a kicked a, what was it?
	More than half of their points.
	I think they scored in the super bowl.
	I didn't follow it that closely.
	I didn't watch it. Let me thank some of the people who left some tips here on Rockfan.
	Andromeda1, thank you very much.
	And Michelle Obama, thank you for the tip.
	It is a $5 tip forwarded to David directly from the Russian Federation.
	Care of the Kremlin.
	Irrefutable proof. There you go.
	Okay, so I'm a Russian sympathizer, I guess.
	I got proof of that. By the way, so we're talking about money.
	It was interesting that the House of Representatives yesterday voted to prevent creation of CBDCs.
	Well, before you celebrate, understand that no such bill exists in the Senate.
	Therefore, it's not even going to come up for a vote in the Senate.
	Doesn't have anybody. No Republicans are pushing this in the Senate.
	Rand? Mike Lee?
	Why are you guys out there?
	Lindsey? Come on, Lindsey!
	They're not going to offer that in the Senate at all.
	Even if they did...
	Do you think they could override a Biden veto?
	Because this is, you know, something that is near and dear to the heart of Biden.
	And it was two years ago that he told every bureaucracy under him, all of the deep state under the president, all the deep state is under the president, by the way.
	Which Trump didn't drain.
	He didn't put a leash or a muzzle on any of it, really.
	But again, you know, he told all them to run this thing through.
	So he would veto it, even if the Senate put it out.
	But the Senate doesn't even have a bill there.
	So is this virtue signaling?
	Yes, it is. And to who are they virtue signaling?
	Well, Tom Emmer is the one who brought in.
	He's the House Majority Whip. He's the number three with the Republicans in the House.
	And he is very tied in with his crypto donors.
	And so he's doing this to curry favor with the crypto donors, just as Machiavelli and Mike has done things to curry favor with the military-industrial complex, his Israeli donors, and all the rest of this stuff.
	It would halt efforts of the administrative state under Biden from issuing a financial surveillance tool That Tom Emmer says, if this is not done correctly, this financial surveillance tool will fundamentally alter the lives of every American.
	Which begs the question, is there a correct way to do a financial surveillance tool of all Americans?
	Or is that something that should be rejected?
	What an awful and awkward way to phrase that from Tom Emmer.
	Dusty Johnson voted for the bill.
	He said, yeah, we've seen this type of thing and how it can be used against the Canadian truckers for example.
	And then you have this from Axios who want to explain it to you just in case you don't understand that crypto is not CBDC, but that CBDC is designed to destroy crypto.
	Our thought bubble, for those who are not steeped in blockchain culture, in other words, for people who are so ignorant that all they do for the news is to watch Axios...
	It might seem surprising that Emmer, a proponent of the cryptocurrency industry, would oppose government getting involved in this technology.
	Amazing. Does Axios think you don't know the difference between crypto and CBDC? That you don't know that CBDC has been designed and these politicians want to destroy crypto to put CBDC in?
	Or do they not know?
	Or do they think that you don't know?
	What is going on with this?
	And as CoinDesk points out, It's not going to pass because there's no bill for that.
	And there was another bill that came out as well.
	71 Democrats joined 208 Republicans in voting for the Financial Innovation and Technology for the 21st Century Act.
	They call it FIT21. A crypto marketing structure that would build, that would give the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission greater spot market authority over digital assets.
	Well, That bill is nothing more than bureaucratic empires jockeying for position and to try to build up their little fiefdoms.
	The other one, that was the CBDC Anti-Surveillance State Act.
	That's put together by Tom Emmer that won.
	That was pretty much along party lines.
	They had all Democrats voted to push through CBDC. So just remember that.
	But again, neither of those are going to make it through.
	Visa, on the other hand, you know, when Tom Emmer is saying, well, you know, if we don't do this right, we've got to make sure that we do this right.
	This might be what he's thinking of.
	Visa has introduced, as they refer to it, the one card to rule them all.
	How long are we going to have these people who are doing this evil stuff making references to the Lord of the Rings and comparing themselves...
	To the evil ones in the Lord of the Rings.
	You know, you had Palantir, right?
	Is doing data mining and surveillance of everybody.
	They identify with the dark side.
	And, of course, these people are doing the same thing.
	Visa. You know, one card to rule them all.
	Virtual or otherwise, they said.
	Well, I don't know. I guess if you embrace the evil, the totalitarian powers, and the surveillance of these fictional characters, maybe you're trying to tell us something, right?
	Hans, are we the baddies?
	Visa flexible credential.
	The ability to access different funding sources on an existing payment card.
	A line of credit or checking account to loyalty points, prepaid debit or installments, shopping, all of this living in the future.
	Payments where one card can tap into different types of funding sources.
	They also announced on the same day that these cards will remove the unique serial numbers on the cards, but instead will have biometric data on them.
	It'll be part of a global digital ID verification.
	How appropriate that Visa will be putting this out, because this is a way to push these vaccine passports and all these other permission slips from the global totalitarian government on you.
	The thing is, they said, this is Visa, the thing is, card numbers don't prove that you're you.
	They just prove that someone, somewhere, possesses a string of numbers.
	But some things are uniquely you.
	Your face, your fingerprint, your biometrics are yours and yours alone.
	And you belong to the state, right?
	I didn't say that, I'm saying that.
	They are the key to the next generation of security and payments.
	This is an all-new level of know your customer.
	They know us by all of our biometrics.
	And they will use that global ID. That's your global slave ID. They'll use it to grant you permission to do whatever they're going to grant you permission or deny permission to do whatever they don't want you to do.
	And, of course, we know where this is all headed.
	They want to control all food.
	They want to control all energy.
	They want to control all money.
	And so we need to do what we can to try to get out of that control grid, whether you're talking about the energy grid or the food, that type of stuff.
	Money, skills, things like that have to be outside of the grid.
	So work on...
	Getting outside of the grid when it comes to energy, as I pointed out yesterday, they're not only, you know, they're working very hard to shut down the control grid, even as they mandate that we use everything, make everything electric and put it on the grid.
	And Rumble Chat has been demanding dog cam.
	I have put some pictures up of the dog's bullet.
	What does that mean, been demanding dog cam?
	What do you mean by that? Um...
	The Rumble Chat wants to see the dog.
	Oh, okay. The Rumble Chat, not the Rumble app.
	I read the Rumble Chat, but I'm thinking Rumble.
	It's like, why does Rumble want to have a dog cam?
	Also, Eric Peters is ready.
	Okay. All right. So you can show us some pictures of the dogs and we'll go to him.
	Just want to say, davidknight.gold, if you want to get out of their financial system, there's some easy ways there.
	There we go. There's a little guy.
	He's the adopted orphan that Travis got.
	That's a nice picture of him. And that is your wife's, one of your wife's dogs.
	She's got two. Travis found one and then his wife has got two dogs.
	Those are great pictures, Travis.
	That is hardly recognizable.
	That does not look too much like Ringo.
	I don't know. There's Scout. There he is.
	That's my dog there.
	So, yeah. Love Scout.
	Anyway... You want to make sure that you get outside of their control grids.
	As these guys are making up their own unique power grid, as they shut ours down, even the artificial intelligence people, as they start to get rid of meat and milk and all the rest of this stuff with whatever excuse they can think of, you still need to have that financial aspect.
	That is a very important thing.
	Get independent of them.
	Get something that is going to be completely private.
	Maintain your ability to use cash by using cash.
	Katherine Austin Fitz talks about having Cash Friday.
	Try to use cash today with your payments because if you don't use cash, the stores will stop accepting it.
	We've already seen this happening in several different places.
	But also, for the coming dark days, if we have to operate in a black market, gold and silver is going to give you, it's real money, has real intrinsic value.
	It's not anything that is controlled by the government or any other system.
	It's off of the Internet.
	It's completely private.
	You can go to davidknight.gold, and that'll take you to Tony Arterman's Wise Wolf Gold.
	You can buy gold or silver, small or large quantities there.
	He can help you if you've got a gold or silver IRA or want one.
	And, of course, you can also, this is something that Tony has done that's unique, set up Wise Wolf Gold.
	He's got several different levels there, and you can buy in at different levels and gradually save this stuff on a month-to-month basis.
	So you pick the amount that you want.
	And the different tiers that are there.
	But you still get, even if you're getting a small amount, you still get the advantage of a group buy.
	So again, davidknight.gold will take you to Tony Ardaman.
	And we're going to take a quick break.
	And when we come back, we're going to have Eric Peters joining us.
	Always a pleasure to have Eric on.
	Music 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 Thank you for listening.
	Thank you for sharing.
	I'm not going to do it.
	Welcome back, and joining us now is Eric Peters at ericpetersauto.com, and it's always a pleasure to have Eric on.
	Did I get that right? Is it auto or autos?
	Autos is plural. Plural, okay.
	So, ericpetersautos, plural.com.
	He talks about mobility and liberty, and those are a couple things that we really can't live without.
	And I always enjoy Eric Peters' style of writing.
	It's very... He's got a lot of memes that he intersperses through, but I love his insights.
	What's up, Eric? What's on your plate?
	Well, let's see. Where do we even begin?
	How about with devolution? That's what I've been preoccupying myself in the last couple of days.
	Are you familiar with that? What is devolution?
	No, I'm not. Okay. It is this theory that has been circulating underground amongst the hardcore Trump people that maintains that Trump is actually still the president.
	control of an operation headed by the military with Mark Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs, being the guy who's sort of the second in command lieutenant of Trump. And they're doing all of the everything that's been going on for the past four years has been part of this operation to expose the the black hats, that's what they call them, and the white hats.
	Mark Milley of all people, but they would pick it up either their their guy Mark Milley.
	Come on! It's so unbelievable.
	Yeah, go ahead. And they say that that's the evidence that the operation is going on, because after all, Trump appointed Mark Milley, and look, Mark Milley's still there.
	He hasn't been removed.
	And so essentially, Biden is literally sort of a fictitious...
	He's not really in charge of anything.
	It's all just a gigantic show for our benefit, and everything's going to be set aright shortly when the orange man triumphantly returns with trumpets and Jesus' hand on his shoulder as he re-enters the White House come January.
	Oh, and a lot of that is, you know, you talk about with Jesus' hand on his shoulder, a lot of that is coming from these faux Christians, Julie Green, you know, and all these people making all these false prophecies, and they kept saying, well, he's not leaving, Trump's not leaving, and then when he was gone, well, he'll be coming back.
	He'll be back. He'll be back.
	One of my oldest friends, we've known each other since we were kids, and we used to laugh at the way Clinton manipulated Christians, Bill Clinton, by clutching that oversized Bible with the gold leaf.
	Clinton, oh look, he's a good man.
	And we would ridicule people who bought into that, but now somehow these same people see Trump parroting Christian sounds and phrases and And they say, look, he's the reincarnation of Cyrus.
	That's another thing that they say.
	He's Cyrus. And they've got coins with his profile.
	Just opposed to Cyrus.
	It's as or more insane on the right side.
	As all of the stuff, the insanity that we've been dealing with on the left, you know, with regard to all of the sickness kabuki and the masks and everything else, they're immune to facts.
	They're immune to reason.
	They just have this sort of messianic religious belief in their secular savior with the spray tan.
	It really is concerning.
	As a Christian, I hate to see the ignorance of Christianity, the idolatry.
	I hate to see the ignorance of politics as well, because these people really don't understand how things work.
	When you talk to them and you say, he locked us all down.
	Oh, no, he didn't do it.
	It was a bad Democrat government.
	It's like, you know, the Republican governors are just as bad, and it was Trump was paying them to do that.
	It's absolutely insane.
	But, you know, when you're talking about all this stuff, we've got arrests that are going on and everything, and somebody sent me an email that was talking about it.
	I forget the guy's name. I had it, and I was trying to find it here.
	I've had it to talk about it this week.
	I can't remember the guy's name offhand.
	But he's putting out this stuff, and he's a new guy.
	It's not Steve Pachinic this time, but it's somebody else who has been on the military side of intelligence I think we're good to go.
	I think we're good to go.
	I said, there's absolutely no way that that's possible.
	You can't do that without people noticing that, number one.
	Number two, he had this story about how they had set up and blockchain watermarked the ballots.
	He just threw every buzzword that he could put in in there.
	And so I started opposing that.
	That's what got me fired, was for opposing that, because that was laying the foundation for Alex's Stop the Steal scam, where he ripped people off for unbelievable amounts of money and...
	and also for Trump's Save America thing.
	And Roger Stone said, this is going to be great.
	It's going to be like falling off a log to make money.
	And it was.
	It was unbelievable how they ripped off their own people and then sent them to January the 6th in the false hope that they could actually do something, and then abandoned these people.
	Trump said, I'll meet you there.
	He walked away. Alex was there.
	He walked away. He went to the other side of town.
	Nothing ever was done to help any of these people.
	They left them twisting in the wind.
	Will they never learn?
	It's just amazing. Apparently not.
	in the very opposition on the one hand of having been excommunicated by people who were on the left during the pandemic for not playing along with that nonsense.
	But now people that I've been friends with for many years on the right are casting a suspicious eye at me because I don't buy into all of this Trump stuff and don't worship the orange man.
	And increasingly, I'm really concerned that they're actually going to let him win and then tank the economy, and then they're going to blame every patriarchal, anti-trans, misogynistic white male that they can find who are all threats to our democracy.
	Yeah, they'll come for that Kansas City field goal kicker and they'll burn him in effigy.
	You know, it is.
	But seriously, it is dangerous because, you know, Hillary, and I've said this when, you know, when it was all happening in 2020 and when we had the election in 2020, I said, you would have never, ever heard anybody saying that Hillary was really on our side with all this stuff, right? And it was unnecessary to have Hillary because all the left really wanted this stuff.
	They love to be given orders and they love to give orders.
	They just want to find their little niche in the pecking order and, you know, they can bully people that are underneath them and they love that kind of stuff.
	And so you didn't need to have Hillary in there to pull this stuff off.
	But you had Trump in there.
	And I said, you know, Trump did everything the globalists did at the same time they were doing it.
	As a matter of fact, he went further.
	He provided the money for all of this stuff for both the Democrats and Republicans.
	He provided the money for Pfizer and Moderna to get this stuff and to poison the world.
	He provided all that stuff.
	And you had people like Alex saying, well, it's 4D chess.
	And Alex was actually telling people, you can take the Trump vaccine.
	It's different than the Gates vaccine.
	It's kind of like sugar water.
	Yeah, that's what it is. It's like sugar water.
	You know, just making this stuff up.
	And so, you know, it was more dangerous to have Trump there.
	They didn't get everybody, but they got more people by having Trump there because they knew they already had the left.
	But here's the thing that concerns me, Eric, and that is when we're coming up here, what is the other distinguishing thing that we see?
	As you talked about the insanity of the people on the right, just like the insanity of the people on the left.
	I say, you know, the people on the left, yeah, they got Trump derangement syndrome.
	They can't stand this guy personally.
	They hate his very essence, right?
	But the people on the right, they're operating under this strong delusion.
	They've created this figure in their own imagination that is nothing at all what Donald Trump is.
	And so you got the people on the left who are deranged, the people on the right who are delusional.
	But one thing they both share, and that is they believe that everything needs to be and can be fixed by the right person in Washington.
	And so they're going to fight over that.
	We can have a civil war over the Oval Office very easily.
	You know, whichever side doesn't get its way.
	And this, all of this stuff is really setting us up for a civil war for whoever doesn't get their way, because they think that all the solutions are in Washington.
	The only way they're going to get away from a civil war is to convince people that Washington is not where the solution is.
	The solution is at the local level.
	The solution is ground up.
	And it's not from top down.
	Yeah, and it's to purge somehow this authoritarian reflex that has somehow embedded itself in the American psyche on the left and the right.
	It's free to be told what to do and to tell people what to do, and it afflicts both sides equally.
	That's right, yeah. That's the thing that disturbs me so much, how I've said the Democrats of my youth have become the communists of my youth and the Republicans have become the Democrats of my youth, you know, and it's just to see the whole country slipping into this authoritarian idolatry that we got to have this leader who's going to save us and we see elements of it with Elon Musk as well, you know, Elon Musk is going to save them as well.
	He's on our side. He's single-handedly saved free speech and look at the price that he paid, you know, and all the rest of this stuff. I talked about it yesterday, Eric, you know, it's kind of interesting. We had this totally ridiculous and absurd idea being sold by the Democrats that Trump was supporting this video that was out there that talked about a unified Reich, right? I couldn't even find that when I looked at it.
	I had to look at a still frame that somebody had grabbed and then circled it in red.
	And it was a template that somebody had used.
	And it wasn't the Trump administration.
	It was totally bogus.
	But they sat there for two days debating and wringing their hands over whether or not Trump is trying to establish a Fourth Reich or something like that.
	And then with Trump, they do the same thing with this boilerplate order from the FBI to search Mar-a-Lago and use deadly force if necessary.
	They never care about deadly force being used against UNI or the general public, right?
	They don't pay any attention to the fact that this is actually a boilerplate thing that is there.
	And it needs to be shut down.
	You know, the FBI needs to be, as Steve Friend, I've interviewed him.
	He's a whistleblower. Who refused to do a raid that could be lethal against some peaceful January the Sixers.
	And so he lost his job there with the FBI. And what he said was, he said, first of all, we need to get rid of the FBI. But he said, if we can't get rid of him, there's no support for that.
	At least get rid of their weapons and have them go to an area.
	If they've got some federal laws that they need to be enforced, let them work with a local enforcement and decentralize some of this stuff.
	But that's not the message that anybody's getting.
	They're not looking at that and saying, yeah, you know, the FBI is out of control.
	No, it's only if it affects Trump that we care.
	It's an ideological barking match on both sides.
	Yeah. Certainly back then.
	But the level of discourse was more adult, more reasonable, and generally speaking, they actually talked in complete sentences and formulated their position on policy.
	It wasn't this derision and name-calling, again, at the level of a not particularly bright middle schooler.
	Yeah, yeah. That's what it's degenerated into.
	Instead of having debates, which, of course, will never open up the debates to multiple parties or anything, but instead of having debates, we have this reality TV show where, as you point out, they have this juvenile name-calling and lawfare that is happening out there and all the rest of the stuff.
	The whole point of this New York trial, I think, was just to bring up Trump's sordid past and air his dirty laundry.
	They don't have any charges there.
	Their chief witness...
	An admitted liar on the stand and admitted that he stole money.
	The whole thing is a joke, but it's gotten everybody glued to this stuff.
	It's absolutely crazy, isn't it?
	But there is an upside to it, I think, in that it's revelatory.
	What's going on now with these lawfare malicious persecutions of Trump, it's more than just about Trump.
	To me, it has made people aware that what we're dealing with is the exercise of power, and whoever has it Can exercise it.
	And there are no limits to the exercise of power.
	That it's arbitrary. It's capricious.
	It's everything that our country is not supposed to be about.
	You're supposed to be giving your fair day in court.
	The law is supposed to be applied equally to everybody and so on.
	And obviously that's not the case.
	And in a way it's good for people on our side because I think it helps to delegitimize the authoritarian state.
	Well, you know, you're right, but I think our side is not necessarily the MAGA group, because I think the MAGA people are out there, it's like, yeah, when Trump gets in, he's going to do that to them and worse.
	Yeah, that's true. And again, Trump is like the Mason-Dixon line, I've called him for the new Civil War, because if he gets in, he's going to double down, and he's going to do even worse to these people, and his people want it to happen that way, don't they?
	Well, and he'll not only do it to people on the putative enemies list, you know, the left, they're going to go after people like us, too.
	Oh, yeah. Because we don't toe the party line.
	That's right. That's right.
	Yeah, these MAGA people hate me as much as they hate the leftist.
	I mean, yeah, I'll be up against the wall as well.
	That's fine. I don't care.
	Not changing any of this stuff.
	Let's talk a little bit about artificial intelligence.
	Because, you know, you and I have talked so much over the years About what the real goal is, and you and I had this conversation years ago about how, well, you think you're going to be allowed to have an electric car?
	No, you're not. They're shutting down the grid.
	They're going to get rid of the internal combustion engines, and then they won't allow you to shut your car.
	As a matter of fact, your car will become a very expensive battery to serve their grid.
	And now we see this being imposed on people, but we had a different turn this week.
	We have now Altman and And it's also come out that some of these other companies, AI companies, are out there creating their own power companies.
	They're going to have their own private grid to run these power-hungry big processors that they have for the large language model things, right?
	And so they're going to have their own independent power grid.
	I think the feds will have their own power grid.
	I think they'll shut us off.
	But I think they're going to have their own independent power grid.
	And we can see this happening. And when Zero Hedge looks at it, they go, hey, an investment opportunity.
	Because this is going to be the next big thing.
	It's going to be bigger than, you know, you've made a lot of money with artificial intelligence.
	And, of course, NVIDIA had their blowout financial report because they're selling the You know, they're selling the picks and shovels of this new Gold Rush.
	They're selling the GPU cards, the super expensive, super fast GPU cards.
	And everybody was astounded at what they sold.
	But they said even better than that is the fact that these companies are now getting into their own power grid, and we're going to need to have power, except we're not going to have access to it.
	But they're going to get people investing in that.
	I mean, what do you see this?
	Are we going to be able to roll that part of it back?
	You know, the artificial intelligence, which is really fake intelligence.
	I don't know. You know, I think we're going to have to decentralize and decouple.
	I see that as probably the only way.
	As long as we continue to operate within this system that's not our creation, that is under their control, well, we're going to be subservient to their control.
	I wrote an article the other day that kind of dovetails with this with regard to the EVs.
	I've been trying to publicize the fact it's not commonly known.
	To use these EV fast chargers, you have to use credit cards or debit cards.
	Not only that, you typically have to have an app on your phone in order to be able to use them, so they're cashless.
	I find that very interesting.
	It's another step on the road toward this interlocking spiderweb of control by exercising control over your finances.
	It's not just the dissipation of the anonymity that cash provides, but If they have that real-time access to your ability to buy things, they can deny you the right to buy things.
	They can restrict when you're allowed to charge, how much you're allowed to charge, and what are you going to do about it?
	You know, I posted a kind of satirical thing that I pulled from the movie Idiocracy, which a lot of people listening will remember.
	And it opens up with a scene of the guy looking at a Carl's Jr.
	kiosk. You know, are you ready for your extra big-ass fries?
	And there's no appealing machine.
	It's an AI machine, you know, and you just touch the screen, and maybe if this is the AI behind it decides to let you pay for your big-ass fries, you can have your fries.
	But if not, what are you going to do?
	Smash your fist on the screen, and then the troops come to drag you away.
	That's the kind of future that they've got in mind for us.
	Oh, yeah. Yeah. And then, of course, idiocracy, I guess, didn't see the fact that it's I'm sorry, you've already had too much of that this week.
	You've had too much meat.
	You can't have any more meat because that's what they're trying to shut down.
	And, of course, you know, just before you came on, I was talking about the fact that Visa is going hard into biometrics now.
	It is all about the global ID. It is all about putting an ear tag on you.
	You used to do this for years during this pandemic stuff.
	You talked about putting the ear tag on like a cattle, right?
	You had pictures where you would do that.
	I think it's apt, isn't it?
	Yeah, you know, I think, okay, again, if you take them at their at face value, what they say that it's urgently necessary that we transition over to electric vehicles that as many people as possible get rid of the car that they're driving right now that has a gas engine and get it get an electric car.
	Why would they want to put obstacles in the way of that?
	Why would they want to, for example, a lot of older people don't have credit cards, or people who just prefer to use cash?
	Why would you want to just essentially ghettoize them and and keep them keep them from getting these electric cars that are so necessary?
	Why would Biden slap 100% tariff on low cost Chinese cars to bring down the cost so that more people could afford to buy these things?
	After all, there's a climate crisis.
	It's an existential crisis, they tell us.
	Yet somehow it's more important to put a tariff to protect UAW workers than it is to get more EVs into circulation, which tells you really what this agenda is all about.
	Yeah, yeah, it does.
	It does. And, you know, you talked about it for the longest time, you know, with the T-shirt that you got about the sheep and the ear tags, about the cattle and all this stuff.
	And it is, you know, they treated us like livestock, like their cattle.
	But now it is kind of interesting.
	I look at this as they're trying to morph over bird flu into cattle flu.
	I'm suspicious that they're going to try to, if they think that they can't inject us, I think they want to inject all of our food and get it into us that way.
	And then number one, number two, have an excuse to do mass culling of cattle like they've been doing mass culling of birds in the past.
	Don't you find it interesting that they are checking, going through and looking at milk?
	They're not looking at chicken eggs.
	They're looking at milk from cattle.
	They haven't found any cattle.
	They found a couple of people who got pink eye, and they're trying to make that into bird flu.
	This is the most ridiculous thing, and yet they've already manufactured 4.8 million doses of bird flu vaccine.
	I read something the other day, I'm sure you did as well, that they are working on and may have already designed and gotten ready a vaccine for cattle to deal with methane emissions.
	The perfect checks all the boxes.
	Yeah, well, I mean, implicitly in that, if cattle flashulence is the big problem, well, we've got, what, 7 billion odd people on this planet who are also producing flashulence.
	So is it inconceivable that they will then say everybody on the planet has to be vaccinated For that, because after all, the climate crisis demands it.
	We've got to do something to prevent this existential crisis from metastasizing.
	Yeah, we could see that coming, couldn't we?
	And today, before you came on, I said, look, we got statements from GlaxoSmithKline, AstraZeneca, and other vaccine companies saying, yes, we will have vaccines for climate change for humans.
	Can't we just have Beno?
	You know, they wouldn't let us have ivermectin now.
	They're not going to let us have Beno.
	You know, it'd be funny if it weren't so frightening.
	Yeah. Because, you know, the last time they framed these shots in the context of public health, well, now they're going to notch it up a little bit and say it's an existential crisis.
	It's not merely a matter of stopping the spread.
	It's if we don't do this, you literally are a threat to humanity, to the planet, if you don't go along with being injected with whatever these drugs are.
	That's right. That's right.
	Well, you know, you and I have talked about the electric cars for a long time, and I remember we talked about, the first time I talked to you, it was about crony capitalism and Elon Musk, but also, I played a clip today of all the stuff that's going on with the Cybertruck.
	It's unbelievable what's happening with that.
	People, one guy had nearly had his finger taken off, and they did put carrots in and shut the thing, and it just chops the carrots off like it's a knife or something.
	It's amazing. That's the frunk.
	hood lid that's there. But apart from that we were laughing about the fact that they they talked about electric cars being very quiet and that it might result in more pedestrians being hit. And so they were talking about different sounds they could come up with it. I remember somebody came up with it or we just talked about making them sound like the Jetsons car that sounds like a little tweeting.
	Yeah, yeah. I mean, literally.
	I think they did. It's embarrassing.
	I had a $100,000-something Mercedes electric vehicle that did that.
	Are we 12 years old again?
	You know, I mean, what grown man or woman wants to drive around in a car that's making cartoon sounds?
	Yeah. Can't you at least have a more economical option where you put a playing card in the spokes of the wheel?
	Exactly. And we were kids when we did that.
	We were nine years old. Grown adults are doing this, and it brings us right back to the bureaucracy.
	The reduction of the populace to the level of middle schoolers, and not bright ones either.
	Well, and of course, you know, it's desperately needed because now electric cars are twice as likely to hit pedestrians, according to researchers.
	They've already twice as likely to kill them because of their weight.
	Exactly. That's right, yeah.
	That's right, because the weight truly is amazing.
	And then they had Google, they ask it questions about blinker fluid, and it's giving people ways to change your blinker fluid.
	It's like your Johnson rod, right?
	Yeah. It's completely artificial, this intelligence, isn't it?
	It's amazing where this stuff is going.
	And people just follow along as if it's no big deal.
	I saw your article about the Camaro picked up in many different places.
	Excellent article about Goodbye Camaro.
	Tell us a little bit about that.
	Well, the Camaro has been canceled.
	This will be the final year for the car.
	And, of course, it's an iconic car.
	It is one of many cars that came out in the wake of the introduction in 1964 of the Mustang, which was one of the most successful cars in the history of the car business, and created that genre of the so-called pony car, named after the Mustang being the name for a horse.
	And all these things proliferated because it was such a great car.
	It was a great concept.
	It was fun.
	It wasn't quite as big and broody as a muscle car, which appealed mostly to younger guys.
	This was a car that didn't necessarily have to have a V8 and could still be a lot of fun.
	And these were just very successful cars.
	And Camaro was a very successful car, and Firebird, which was the sister car of the Camaro, for many, many years.
	But now a combination of forces have made it very difficult to continue to produce these Ford is the last one standing, again.
	Dodge had to cancel the Challenger, again, because it just got to the point where they couldn't continue to build those cars at a price point that made them viable in the marketplace.
	And it's the same problem with Camaro.
	Base price now, I think, for the thing is about $35,000.
	You know, and by the time you get up to the V8 car, now you're pushing $50,000.
	How many people can afford a car like that?
	Not many.
	That's right.
	Now to GM's credit, you know, I will give them sort of a backhanded compliment.
	They didn't do what, what Dodge has done, which was to slap the Camaro name, uh, on a device on a battery powered contraption and pretend that that's a Camaro.
	They're letting it walk off the field with some dignity intact.
	It's just sad to see.
	Yeah, that's true.
	Yeah.
	I remember the Mustang.
	Boy, that really was a big deal when I was in school.
	And, of course, I remember my best friends, their dad had an old at the time.
	It was like eight years old.
	The first generation of the Mustang, the really small one.
	And it was a convertible.
	And we used to, because it was old at that time, eight years.
	You didn't typically keep cars for eight years back then.
	Right? They didn't last that long in general.
	But, you know, so it was a beat-up car.
	The bottom of it was even rusted out.
	So if you're sitting in the back seat, you had to straddle a hole in the road going underneath you and everything.
	But it was a blast. It was a raw experience.
	I think that's what got me to where I wanted to have a small convertible Roadster.
	My first car was a Mustang.
	It was a 68 Fastback Mustang.
	But the next one was a Triumph Spitfire one.
	Which was an adventure. But it was, hey, I wanted to get something that was small and convertible like that because I had so much fun in the Mustang.
	And we used to do all kinds of stuff with that car.
	Took it everywhere. Beat that thing to death and it just kept going.
	But those cars were a lot of fun.
	And as you point out, they were cheap.
	They were affordable. You know, it could be one that was a couple years old could be a starter car for somebody.
	Yeah, I mean, when I was in high school in the 80s, the parking lot was full of old Mustangs and old Camaros and all kinds of vehicles like that.
	These are teenagers. I was one of them.
	Who could afford to have a car like that and afford to put gas in it on a part-time after-school McDonald's job?
	I and my friends all did that.
	Now, that car is for basically affluent middle-aged and older men because affluent middle-aged men are the only ones who can afford to spend $40,000 on a car plus Yeah, it is sad to see what's happening.
	And of course, when you look at insurance, it's not just the cars, it's the houses as well.
	I mean, look at what they have done in Florida.
	You know, they've gone in, the insurance industry is going to make people homeless there.
	All these people went in and bought condos a few years ago, and now they've come in with new rules and new inspections and all this kind of stuff.
	These people are going to, they wound up, they might have spent, you know, $130,000 for their condo, and they're getting a $100,000 assessment to have essentially retroactive building codes imposed upon them.
	And they're trapped and they can't get rid of this.
	I mean, it's the most outrageous thing.
	I don't know. I wonder if DeSantis or Republicans don't do anything about that or if they're completely captive to this big industry, the insurance industry.
	Well, they're captive to it, and I think what's ultimately going to happen is people are going to do something about it.
	With regard to car insurance, I think very close to a point at which people are going to just say, you know what?
	I'm done paying. Come get me.
	Courage shall make in. They're going to raise the jolly roger.
	We live in a world now where to be a responsible person and to just try to live your life and not cause problems is to be a criminal.
	So why not embrace it?
	Why not just stop obeying their rules?
	They don't obey them. They're flooding the country with people who don't have to even show ID. Just come on in.
	Here's a $10,000 credit card to go ahead and go shopping.
	If that guy gets into a car without valid license and registration, runs a red light, kills somebody, what are they going to do?
	They're not going to do anything because they can't get any money out of them.
	You and I, if we get caught, we're not wearing our seatbelt, they'll probably pull a gun on us and hand us a piece of paper.
	If we don't pay it, you can bet you they're going to find a way to make us pay it.
	Yeah. Oh, absolutely. Absolutely that's going to happen.
	They just did that call for that tournament.
	Did you see that? They released the video.
	They thought it vindicated what they were doing, and it completely did the opposite.
	It did not vindicate what they were doing.
	They've got traffic control cops there telling people what they could do.
	He was the number one ranked golfer.
	And so he slowly, really slowly, and you can see the picture.
	He's got his foot on the brake and he's just creeping at about two miles an hour.
	And this cop turns around and runs and grabs hold of his car.
	And he stopped right away.
	But the cop lied and said that he was being drugged by this car and everything.
	They put him in handcuffs. They said, we're going to get him.
	And then they released this footage to the police department and thinking somehow that it...
	Validated their story.
	It contradicted what they had said about that.
	It's truly amazing. They're not very bright, which is a good thing.
	They're very authoritarian, but they're not very bright.
	And there's an interesting thing, too, if you get into the literature about psychopathy, the upside to psychopathy is these people think they're invulnerable.
	They think that we're so dumb that they can fool us every single time.
	And that makes them arrogant, and that makes them careless, and then they get caught.
	And that's a very good example of that.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, you know, we were talking about the Google Gemini, which drew all those pictures of reimagining everybody out of Washington.
	That's right. Yeah, exactly.
	Yeah, reinventing our historical figures as all female, black, or Asian, you know.
	Those same people who put out the blinker fluid instructions.
	And we've also now got the godfather of AI saying that...
	There's a consensus with all the experts, Eric, that within just a few years, AI is going to exceed human intelligence.
	I wonder which group of people they're looking at.
	Is it these highly partisan people on the left and right that they're comparing it to?
	I don't know where they come up with something like that.
	This isn't my area of expertise, so what I'm about to say is my opinion on it, but I feel as though when they talk about AI, all they're really talking about is a highly sophisticated computer that has highly sophisticated programming, but I don't think, I don't believe, at least I hope, that it is not possible to create a machine that can truly think in the way that human beings can.
	That's right. Evaluate external reality and form a judgment and the judgment is filtered through empathy and compassion and reason and it's not just a cold calculating machine because if I'm wrong about this we're in real trouble and it's very scary.
	Well, you know, and I had talked about this earlier this week.
	There's one guy who did understand what it was, and he said, I found when I try to explain this to people who don't know how artificial intelligence works, he said, I found the best analogy is just to explain it to them and say...
	You know, how does it answer these questions?
	It doesn't even know that it's being asked a question.
	It's just a big matching game.
	It looks at these different matrices and tries to find the best fit.
	And he goes, and that's why it can sound and sometimes be really brilliant.
	it and then immediately afterwards it can hallucinate and do these really strange things because it's just building these matrices and comparing that to what you're asking it for for the best fit.
	And that's really the way this stuff works.
	It's not thinking at all.
	It doesn't even understand the questions that you're asking it.
	It's just doing rough comparisons.
	But see, that's the thing that makes it so dangerous because it's this matching capability that it's doing is really, I think, the core feature of how they want to use it.
	I think the key use of artificial intelligence is to be able to identify all these biometrics that they got on everybody, to be able to identify us very quickly, to be able to use this in a surveillance contest.
	I think that has always been the core issue of it, especially when you look at the people who have designed and funded this thing.
	I think it's all about surveillance, and I think it's also about propaganda.
	It's a con game to get people to think that it truly can think, that it really is an expert.
	And look at how easy it was to fool people.
	I mean, if people could believe that Fauci was a scientist, I guess they could believe that these machines are thinking.
	Well, I can speak to, in the context of cars, there's a lack of nuance there.
	And what they really want is sort of a one-size-fits-all solution for everybody that doesn't allow for the exercise of judgment in a particular situation.
	For example, these new cars that I test drive, they've all got what they call advanced driver assistance technologies that will do things like hit the brakes or try to jerk the car back into the lane. And like you said, they're all predicated on this batch of assumptions based on the conditions that they assumed when they programmed it.
	And if something arises that's outside of those parameters, it may not be appropriate or often isn't appropriate.
	And that's when you realize you're not really dealing with something that's a thing.
	It's just something that is reacting within the boundaries of programming.
	And it might be very sophisticated programming, but it is not genuinely thinking in the way that you and I think.
	That's right. That's right. I've seen that all my life, you know.
	I remember when I was in college, and we just had these very primitive PCs, some of them.
	We're building ourselves as kits and we had command line interpreters.
	There's no graphical user interface, anything like that.
	And there was a program that was very effective and it just would ask you kind of open-ended questions and give open-ended responses.
	And it seemed like it was thinking.
	I mean, it was like you were being psychoanalyzed by some kind of a counselor and you're on the couch or something.
	Well, how do you feel about that?
	Well, tell me more about that. You know, that type of stuff.
	And it could be very effective.
	And, you know, it was laughable because we knew there was just this program that was gaming it.
	This is just a much more sophisticated version of that.
	And it's being applied to a lot of different things.
	I've got a question or a comment for you here on Rockfan from Michelle Obama.
	Thank you. Thank you.
	What's that? We might.
	Yeah, exactly. That's why he's got an N at the end of it.
	Obama. Eric, India had a Jetsons-looking, no-frills car that looked to make cars cheap again.
	When will demand overwhelm and force reasonable, practical cars back?
	What do you think? Well, you've got to get the impediment out of the way, which is the federal government.
	If the federal government weren't there, of course we'd have access to these things.
	Even previous to this, this funds rush toward electrification, most people have no idea that in other parts of the world, even in Mexico, you can get basic, simple little cars brand new that are made by all the major manufacturers.
	They just don't sell them here because they're not allowed to sell them here because the federal government won't permit them to be imported into the country because they don't meet the very latest.
	There's something called the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards, among other things, and then there are emission standards, and so they keep them out of this country.
	Even to the extent, here's a good example, in New Zealand and Australia, you can buy a brand new V8-powered Toyota Land Cruiser, brand new from Toyota, for about $40,000.
	That vehicle's not available here.
	You can get diesel-powered 4Runners in those markets.
	These are fully modern cars.
	And this idea that they're somehow unsafe or that they are dirty and producing lots of pollution, it's absurd.
	It's just... It's rent-seeking.
	It's capture. It's designed to increase the price of vehicles, to price most people out of the market.
	And unfortunately, the automakers are in collusion with this.
	They can make more money by keeping the lower-priced stuff out.
	There's a reason why you can't buy a small pickup in this country anymore.
	The closest thing you can come to is the Maverick, which I had a week ago and did a review of.
	But all the vehicles that you and I can remember from what, 10, 15 years ago, compact size trucks, why can't you get those anymore?
	They were immensely popular.
	They were also very inexpensive.
	They sold for $13,000, $14,000, brand new.
	You can't get them anymore.
	Because why?
	They want to upsell you.
	They want to sell you a $35,000 midsize truck.
	And by the way, those midsize trucks now, and I'm talking about the current Ford Ranger, the Chevy Colorado, the Toyota Tacoma, if you look at them dimensionally, they are as big or even bigger in some cases than the half-ton full-size trucks of the 90s and early Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. It's amazing how big they've gotten and how high they've gotten, you know, especially when I'm riding around in my little car.
	I see these cars, and the top of the hood of the front of the car is sometimes higher than my height, you know?
	And it's like, everybody wants to drive a semi-trailer, I guess, anymore, is what they're trying to do.
	I don't get it.
	You know, when I had the Maverick, it was such a nice and relieving thing to be able to go to Lowe's, to get some, I got some, you know, block stones for a tree that we're going to plant.
	And I didn't have to get on a ladder to put them in the truck.
	And I didn't have to get on the ladder to get them out of the truck.
	I just put them over the truck.
	And I'm 6 feet 3 inches tall.
	So I'm taller than probably 95% of the adult men in this country.
	And these current half-ton trucks make me feel like I'm 12 years old again.
	Because they're that big and that high.
	The bed wall comes up to my chest.
	It's crazy. It serves no functional purpose at all.
	It's all about this sort of codpiece strutting.
	Look at me.
	I don't understand the appeal of it at all.
	That's exactly what happened to us.
	We went out and got a...
	We need to have a pickup truck.
	Let's get a cheap one at an auction.
	And so they looked at it from a distance.
	They got there late, and my son and my wife didn't.
	And they picked up this thing.
	And the people were laughing...
	They went to pick it up and said, you can't drive that thing.
	My wife couldn't even get into it.
	I had a hard time getting into it.
	You couldn't load anything in the back, just like you're talking about.
	It was so high. It was a big truck and they had jacked it up.
	And it was an old truck, you know, but they had jacked this thing up really high.
	We wound up reselling that, you know, and getting rid of it.
	But, yeah, it is really crazy.
	And, you know, when you look at what is happening in terms of talking about cheap cars, years ago we talked about this, and you talked about how in France they had a different, very cheap, very low-power version that was only available to new drivers, you know, and I think it was, you know, for entry-level.
	And, of course, you would never be allowed to have something like that, and it's a big game.
	By putting all this safety stuff on there, it keeps the competition out, doesn't it?
	Sure. Well, once again, get back to this EV thing.
	There are a plethora of city EVs available from various Chinese manufacturers that are priced under $10,000.
	That would be ideal for people who live in the city, you know, or even for people who are a little bit outside of the city and they don't need a vehicle that has a range greater than 100 miles and they don't need a vehicle that can travel at 75 miles an hour on the freeway for a couple hundred miles at a time.
	What they need is just a simple A to B conveyance.
	Lots of people would really like to have a vehicle like that.
	And again, if we're facing an existential crisis because the climate is changing, why would you not want to encourage as many of those kinds of vehicles to get into circulation as possible?
	And the answer is because there isn't an existential crisis.
	It's just a boogeyman.
	It's a MacGuffin.
	It's just another con designed to separate people from their money and their liberty.
	Yeah, I just saw the article about the big Chinese EV company, and they had it, like you're talking about, at one round $10,000.
	It would only go 80 miles an hour.
	That was its top speed. It wasn't really super fast.
	And as you point out, if it is an existential threat, you would want to have those types of vehicles around.
	But then, of course, that's being done in a country that is allowed to add unbelievable amounts of coal-fired power plants that they don't even make an attempt to clean it up.
	There's no limits on that, just like there's no limits on power in India, and that's why all the manufacturing is going there.
	Nobody can compete with them.
	It's not just a fact of regulations, but you can't compete with them because they have such cheap energy.
	That's now become another component of the China price.
	Sure, absolutely. I'm sorry, go ahead.
	I was going to say, we've got another question here.
	Andromeda One. David, what do you and Eric think of the potential of hydrogen cars?
	Wishing everybody a great Memorial Day weekend.
	What do you think about the hydrogen cars?
	Well, they suffer from some of the same problems that electric cars suffer from.
	They're very expensive. And, you know, you need a whole other infrastructure, I think, to get that to go.
	Toyota actually has one.
	It's in production. It's called the Mirai.
	And it's essentially a Toyota Camry.
	Same basic car.
	Same basic shape and all of that.
	And I think its base price is something like $45,000.
	It might even be $50,000. You know, you pick up a Camry with a gas engine for $23,000.
	So it's roughly twice as expensive.
	And I think the unasked question is why?
	Why? Why would you jump through all these hoops to replace something that works?
	I think we'd have to focus on the fact that they're trying to get rid of something that works.
	Why? Because of a fraudulent reason.
	This notion somehow that 0.04% of the Earth's atmosphere is CO2, and somehow a fractional increase in that fraction Is causing an existential crisis?
	I just, who buys that?
	And only 3% of that 0.4% is man-made, according to them, you know?
	And so even from their own position, it doesn't make any sense.
	And I think it is essential for us to debunk that foundational lie.
	As long as we try to play around with that, and you know the approach that's been taken by Toyota doing the hydrogen car and a lot of these other things is to say, okay, we'll accept your premise that we've got to get rid of CO2. So how do we do that?
	Well, here's a new technology that's going to have a lot of flaws in it.
	We don't have the infrastructure to support it.
	It's going to be incredibly expensive.
	But let's play this game and pretend that we've got to stop all CO2. We've got to stop it and oppose this notion that we've got to get rid of CO2 or they're going to destroy everything.
	They're playing that game now with meat and with milk, as we were talking about earlier.
	They even did it about rice.
	I saw this because, you know, a lot of...
	The poor countries in the world, they don't have the money and the infrastructure to eat meat or milk, and so they're eating rice.
	Well, now let's get rid of rice.
	You have to understand that the fundamental thing about all this environmentalism is not about CO2. It's about depopulation These people have been about depopulation from the very beginning the first Earth Day I was in high school Paul Ehrlich was out there in front with all the stuff He was writing about the population bomb. How do we kill more people?
	How do we get rid of people and all this kind of stuff from the very beginning?
	That's what it's about. They don't want to get rid of co2.
	They want to get rid of people Absolutely. I think we have a very important lesson during the course of the past four years with regard to the pandemic And the only way we stopped that was by challenging the underlying narrative.
	The only thing that stopped the masking and the vaccine was the fact that these things don't work.
	The disease they're talking about is, for the most part, a trivial threat to most people.
	It's simply...
	Absurd. You don't accept their premise.
	If you accept their premise and agree with their argument, well, you've lost the argument.
	All you're going to do at that point is quibble over how you're going to deal with this problem that doesn't really exist.
	Yes. Yes. And, you know, you have an article, I think, on your site about the guy that refused to shut down his gym, and, of course, they arrested him in New York.
	And he's absolutely defiant.
	You know, he said, look, you have to understand, nobody is coming to rescue you.
	You're in this yourself.
	Raise the black flag.
	You know, this is the time to take a stand and not to back down.
	And we have to do that when it comes to this narrative.
	I know people, you know, oh, you're talking about the elites want to kill everybody.
	That's right. And we can make that case.
	That is the truth.
	And if it's the truth, we can make that case and we can make it very effectively.
	And we need to make that case effectively to people.
	And to point out the lies that they have there.
	You know, it's all based on a bluff, isn't it?
	You know, just like it was with the pandemic.
	Same thing with the climate stuff.
	Oh, I'm not going to show you the data.
	I'm the scientist. You have to trust me and do what I say.
	It's always about that bluff. It's also based on maliciousness, and I think that's something that's difficult for most people to get their heads around Because most people assume that other people are well-intended even if they're wrong about something. Maybe they have incorrect information Maybe their assumptions are wrong, but at the end of the day they're trying to do the right thing Well, that's not the case with these people. That's right
	Yeah. Normal people can't understand how evil these people are, and that's why serial killers are successful.
	People like Ted Bundy. He's such a nice man.
	He's very intelligent. He's very attractive.
	And then, of course, he rapes and murders women one after the other, right?
	Because he uses that, and people project onto others.
	That's what the big deal is with Trump.
	Everybody projects what they want him to be.
	I remember Harry Belafonte said that...
	About Obama. He was on the left, and towards the end of the Obama regimes, he said, who is this guy?
	We thought he was going to do this, this, and this, and he didn't do any of that.
	He said, we projected what we wanted him to be.
	We projected that, the left did, onto Obama.
	The right is doing exactly the same thing with Trump.
	Sure. Most people want to assume the best of other people, and most people have a really tough time grappling with evil, and that it does exist, and that it does come in human form sometimes.
	That's right. Yeah, you know, one of the things I've talked to people that I think is really an eye-opener, if you stop and think about it, I said, you know, what about ivermectin?
	We look at all these different things that were killing people, hospital protocols, and Trump was paying for it and giving hospitals bonuses and everything.
	I said, what about ivermectin?
	Oh, well, you know, Trump tried to tell us about ivermectin, and look at how they shut him down.
	It's like, come on, he's president, number one.
	Number two. Look at what he did for ventilators.
	He took over the car companies and told Ford and GM, you're going to make these ventilators now?
	The ventilators are killing people.
	You know, like 90% of the people who got them died.
	And then same thing with remdesivir.
	I said he could have done that with ivermectin.
	At the very least, he could have said you're not going to take away people's medical licenses or fire them as a pharmacist because they give people ivermectin.
	The second thing he could have done is he could have mass produced it.
	There was no, nobody owned it.
	So he could have mass produced that just like he mass produced ventilators or these other things, you know, the vaccines.
	But he chose not to do any of that.
	What does that tell you? You know, people need to think about that.
	It truly is. Some of the devolutionists say, well, Trump never forced anybody to take the vaccine.
	Oh, I heard that. Which is absolutely, except, of course, everybody in the military.
	Yeah, yeah. Yeah.
	And effectively, everybody else had a bayonet shoved at their back with the choice being give up your livelihood and potentially the ability to feed your family.
	That's the choice that you've got to make.
	And there's something else, too, to get back to this sort of blind spot that a lot of Christians putatively have with regard to Trump.
	It's my understanding that these vaccines, in the course of their manufacture, make use of aborted fetal tissue.
	That's right. And somehow it's okay for good godly man Trump to push...
	You know, this concoction that involves the tissue of a born fetus onto people.
	It's amazing. He's never seen the inside of a Bible.
	This guy's not a Christian.
	It's probably a box.
	Inside of that box is probably, that's his Big Mac.
	That's where he keeps his Big Mac.
	Yeah, that's right. He's got his golden slippers and his Trump Bible and all the rest of this stuff.
	I've got a clip that I play that somebody did the Ten Commandments.
	You remember a couple of years ago at CPAC, they had that golden Trump idol that was in sneakers.
	Yes. They superimposed that with the tracking, so they're carrying around that instead of the golden calf.
	Do you know, in my area, there's something called the Trump Store.
	Are you familiar with it? Oh, yeah.
	We've got a couple of them here.
	We've got two of them here.
	I should go in and introduce myself sometime if I want to get beat up.
	It's surreal. We were at one of them a couple of weeks ago, and they had a selection of images, sort of like Catholic or Russian Orthodox iconography.
	Yeah. Literally, with Jesus behind him or like the Holy Nimbus behind him and stuff.
	I mean, serious. It's not a gag.
	You know, they actually take this stuff seriously.
	Oh, yeah. Oh, that's a big part of this Reawaken America tour with Mike Flynn and all these other people.
	I mean, they really do milk that.
	And the thing is, you know, these people who are going to it, they really are political neophytes.
	If they are Christians at all, they're new to that.
	And so they don't really understand either politics or religion.
	They've kind of mixed these two things together as part of this big movement.
	It truly is amazing to watch all this stuff as it rolls out, but it is a very dangerous time that we're in, and I think that we have to do what this guy at the gym did.
	We have to say, well, you know, They destroy my life, they destroy my life, but it's going to be destroyed if I have to live it on my knees, and I refuse to comply with any of this stuff.
	Raise a black flag.
	Do not cooperate with any of this stuff.
	He said, I knew I would eventually find a judge who would support the Constitution.
	And so now he's had all 80 charges removed, but he's still got to get his money back on it.
	But we have to have that kind of attitude, and we've got to have that kind of attitude when it comes to the narratives about the bird flu, when it comes to the issues of...
	You know, what they're trying to push on us with the CO2 as well.
	And you know, Eric, I think, I've talked about this many times, how this is really the second shooter drop from 9-11, because they had the first germ game two months before 9-11.
	Then one week after 9-11, they had the anthrax attack, and then two months later, they put out all this model legislation.
	As everybody's looking at this, and there's, how do we get the Congress to do anything to stop this WHO pandemic treaty and the fact that they've got control of us?
	I think we need to get involved at the local level.
	I think we need to somehow, on a state-by-state basis, they put out this model legislation to them in 2001.
	We've got to find out which of those laws were put in in each of our respective states and start trying to find some legislators who will pull this thing apart piece by piece.
	I think that's about the best thing that we could do at this point because they're going to try to impose this from the top down.
	We have to take the legs off of it where the rubber meets the road, and that's at the local and state level, I think.
	I couldn't agree more. We have to take back our communities.
	We have to take a page on the left.
	You know, the left spent, what, 50, 60 years at least working from the ground up, working from the school boards up, all the way up to the level of the federal government, and they were hugely successful at it.
	We can do the same, and I think we can be even more successful, you know, The advantage that we have at the local level is that these are our neighbors.
	These are people that we know and that we can actually have some direct interaction with.
	Whereas its hope is to try to do anything with a senator.
	Two senators in a state.
	How many millions of people do these people allegedly represent?
	Good luck. Unless you're Boeing or Raytheon, you're not going to get an audience, much less anything done, talking to your senator or calling an 800 number.
	But you might have some success talking to your neighbor down the road who's a member of the school board, or better yet, why don't you run for the school board yourself?
	Yes, I agree. A couple of quick things.
	Thank you on Rumble YJ72. It's a beautiful dog.
	You showed dogs before you came on.
	And on Rockfin, Michelle Obama again.
	Eric, why don't they call buying a truck a mortgage?
	One cost twice what my dad paid for his house.
	They ought to. The difference is that a vehicle is a depreciating consumer appliance.
	It's not an asset.
	At least when you take out a mortgage on a house, it's sort of a store of value, at least in normal times.
	And at the end of the day, when you finally do pay off the mortgage, well, you've actually got something that's still worth something.
	But by and large, when you finance a vehicle, for typically six to seven years now, at the end of that loan term, you've got something that's worth a fraction of what its value was when you drove it off the dealer's lot.
	It might still be worth 30% what you paid for it.
	That's what I call a bad deal.
	And a bad investment, not a good one.
	And that's especially true with these super expensive electric vehicles.
	That's the thing, when we're talking about a mortgage, what is a mortgage?
	You know, the root of that is M-O-R-T, which in Latin is death, right?
	So what you're doing, you're killing off this debt gradually, assuming that there's gonna be something of value that's still there after you've killed off the debt.
	The problem is, with a car, you have this declining asset underneath it, which is maybe dying faster than the mortgage is being killed off.
	Yeah, and, you know, the situation now, they've really painted themselves in the corner because they've only been able to do this increase in the cost of the typical car by extending out the loan payments to six, seven years, and even longer in some cases, with very low interest.
	But, you know, as interest rates have gone up, now you're looking at...
	Typical car payments of $600, $700, and for some of the higher-end models, $900, $1,000.
	It's literally a mortgage.
	People are paying as much on a car payment as people used to pay on their house, and it's just not sustainable.
	Oh, you're absolutely right. Trump was right about one thing.
	It's going to be a bloodbath.
	In the automobile industry, for sure.
	Thank you so much for joining us, Eric Peters, ericpetersautos.com.
	Always great to see what you're doing.
	Thank you for what you're doing for Freedom.
	I really do appreciate it. Likewise, Dave.
	We're all on the same team here.
	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.
	And you want to know something else?
