	You're listening to The David Night Show.
	As the clock strikes 13, it's Wednesday the 5th of June, Year of Our Lord 2024.
	Well folks, we've got them on the run.
	They've got people who are gradually admitting that there's something going on with the vaccine.
	Even some mainstream media, of course, they're tiptoeing into it.
	They are incrementally and very slowly revealing elements of the truth, trying to delay things, I think.
	We have a major statement from a Japanese politician, currently a former minister who is currently in their legislature.
	He is motivated because he knows what was given to him.
	He got one of the bad lots.
	He has cancer.
	He's speaking out about that.
	We're going to begin with that. We'll also take a look at what's going on with a study About the Amish and how they tried to rig this to keep you from realizing how harmful everything they did was.
	Very interesting how they try to spin the truth.
	We'll be right back. Again, let's begin with the pandemic stuff before we get into vaccines, before we get into politics, and we do have some updates about politics as well as war.
	Things are looking bad with that, and I think they will take us to war as people are starting to wake up about this stuff around the world, and we're going to tell you what is happening around the world as people are waking up.
	I know nothing is happening here.
	I know we're still cheering the guy who did it.
	I know we're still cheering the guy who mandated it.
	I know that you're going to have Trump or Biden and people really don't care.
	And this show trial with Fauci is just nonsense.
	The GOP is not going to do anything about it.
	Even as they fear monger over gain of function, nobody's introduced a bill to stop it.
	Why is that? They stopped it 10 years ago in 2014.
	Why don't they? Based on accidents that were happening.
	Now, If they banned gain-of-function research, of course, Fauci and Francis Collins continued it anyway, but if they banned it in 2014, based on news stories and reports and events where they had faulty equipment, they got individuals who were working in these labs, got exposed to these diseases that they were trying to make more lethal, or they released By accident, we'll say.
	Diseased animals, all this other kind of stuff that was happening.
	So I said, stop it. Stop it.
	And they continued to do it anyway, secretly and in defiance of Congress.
	Nevertheless, this time around, when Congress is saying, well, you created and released, whether by accident or deliberate, but you created and released this COVID thing.
	The most dangerous pathogen the world has ever seen.
	The thing that locked us down and destroyed our economy and all the rest of the stuff.
	But they won't stop it this time around?
	I mean, this is far worse than anything that had happened 10 years ago in 2014, and Congress stopped it.
	Why isn't Congress doing anything now?
	It's nothing but an endless stream of TV reality shows to get their face on TV. I am so sick of Washington.
	Are you sick of Washington? This is why I say, forget about Congress.
	Forget about Trump.
	Forget about Biden.
	Nobody's going to fix anything.
	They've been fixed.
	You understand? The fix is in.
	They are the fix.
	They have fixed this just like these casino criminals like Trump and Sheldon Adelson, just like they fix the games that they play with you.
	And this is a game.
	This is a game. You pull the lever and you look to see if it comes up three elephants or if it comes up three donkeys.
	Either way, you lose.
	So, yesterday I talked about epic times.
	I said, and it was really some stunning lies that they put out.
	I'll just remind you of the headline.
	Gain of function may explain the flu jump to cows and to humans.
	That's a lie. There's no gain of function in the bird flu stuff.
	Because there is no jump to cows and there's no jump to humans.
	What Epoch Times was reprehensibly doing was taking this to a level that was beyond what the mainstream media is doing.
	There's supposed to be conservative media on our side.
	This is what's so damaging about it.
	This is the long gone of conservative media.
	They tell you the truth, tell you the truth, tell you the truth, and boom, they tell you the lie when it's important.
	And so it's a big tell, isn't it?
	It's a big tell, not just about the epic times, but it's a big tell about how important this bird flu thing is to them.
	And so I read it yesterday, excerpts from it, and I said, look at what they're saying.
	They're hyping this worse than the mainstream media is.
	They're giving it a reality that's worse than the mainstream media.
	They're leading with gain-of-function stuff.
	And then they had a second one.
	New human case of bird flu confirmed by the CDC. It's not.
	It's not. Conjunctivitis is not bird flu.
	And if it is, we have nothing to worry about.
	One of the most common non-dangerous diseases out there.
	It's not as dangerous as the common cold.
	Common cold can turn into pneumonia and that can kill you.
	But not pink eye.
	And so to get everybody concerned about that, to parrot the CDC as if they were telling anything true.
	I mean, it played for you the new CDC director and how she was recounting when she was talking about becoming director.
	Yeah, she was state in North Carolina.
	She was a state health official.
	I would call these other health officials in other places.
	What are you doing?
	Oh well, then I'll do that too.
	Are you letting them do that?
	No? Okay, well I won't let them do that either.
	There was no science about this, just as we're seeing with Fauci.
	We always knew that. There's nothing new.
	The Congress is not coming up with anything new.
	What they're doing is, they're distracting people.
	It's a misdirection. It's there to make people think that they're actually doing something when they're not.
	Because they were in on this from the very beginning.
	Most of these people there were there four years ago.
	They stayed silent or they went along with the lie and pushed the lie.
	And I'm talking about Republicans as well as Democrats.
	Of course all the Democrats did it, but the Republicans did it too.
	Stop looking to Washington for your solutions.
	They are the problem.
	We has met the enemy and they is us.
	As in United States of American government, the federal government is the problem.
	It's ridiculous. Like I said, to get all upset about and to fight with each other and to have a civil war over who's going to be in the Oval Office is like having a fight over who's going to replace Klaus Schwab.
	First of all, you have no more say in who's going to be in the Oval Office than you do in who's going to be in charge of the World Economic Forum or the World Health Organization or the UN or any of these other globalist organizations.
	The federal government, our federal government is a globalist organization.
	It's every bit as much a globalist organization as Davos or the UN or the WHO. As a matter of fact, when the WHO failed...
	With their pandemic treaty, what did the federal government do?
	And this is not Biden.
	He's just a figurehead.
	It's the permanently entrenched bureaucracy.
	That's the government.
	The permanently entrenched bureaucracy in Washington, which neither the president nor Congress attempts to control.
	Congress will occasionally hold hearings, as you're seeing now, but they're not going to do anything to try to control the NIH or Fauci's NIAID. The permanently entrenched bureaucracy reacted to the cancellation of the pandemic treaty by funding, giving money to 100 countries to do what the WHO wanted to do in the first place.
	They're pushing that out there.
	They're paying people to do it, which is exactly what Trump did, exactly what Biden did.
	I'm going to pay you to do what Fauci says.
	And so now Biden is paying them to do what the WHO says.
	So who is directing this?
	Does it make any difference?
	Because our government, the U.S. government, is no different from the WHO or Davos government.
	Or the UN. They are the enemy.
	They are a key part of global governance.
	We have to stop them at the local level.
	We can stop them at the local level.
	And stop looking to government to be your savior.
	Christ is your savior. Stop putting your hope in politicians.
	They can't do or won't do anything.
	Not just Trump, but all of them.
	Will not act except in their own perceived self-interest.
	He's just the most cartoonishly obvious one of all of them.
	But they're all in it just for their own perceived self-interest.
	So, Epoch Times. New human case of bird flu.
	Confirmed. By the CDC. Believe it.
	And believe that it's coming from a gain of function and it's jumping across different species.
	So be very afraid. This is exactly what happened four years ago in Infowars.
	This constant parade of guests, of Mike Adams saying, you know, it's got this little hook in there and it's going to hook into your system and this COVID thing, it's been engineered.
	You know, look at this furrage cleavage or whatever.
	You know, it's like, come on, shut up.
	You haven't seen any of this stuff.
	Who's feeding you this information?
	You can't see a virus, right?
	Isn't that what Carey Mullis told us?
	You know that, right? That's part of the problem with the virus theory.
	It's an abstraction to try to explain something that cannot be observed.
	It's like quantum physics, or it's like these other atomic theories, the Niels Bohr theory of the atom and everything.
	You can make some observations, and you can try to create some models, but you know what, folks?
	It's not what it is.
	These are approximations.
	They're trying to describe what's going on.
	And it's one of the reasons why our models of subatomic particles and our models of viruses and things like that continually change.
	You can't observe it.
	And so to talk about how the COVID virus has got these little hooks on it and all of a sudden, it's like, you're an idiot.
	You really believe that?
	You're really going to take their word on it as if they've seen it?
	It's like, come on.
	Oh, man.
	So, anyway. So, that was the Epoch Times yesterday.
	Today, we learned the chief financial officer of the Epoch Times has been arrested and charged with money laundering of at least $67 million in funds.
	Wow. The Falun Gong has run this publication.
	And for the most part, they've been conservative.
	But again, don't exclude somebody as an entire organization because you disagree with them.
	It may be over a period of time if all you see from them is misinformation, you know, false conclusions and things like that.
	Just drop them as a source.
	I've done that to many people. But it doesn't mean that they can't sometimes tell you the truth.
	And the other part of this is that you never trust anybody, especially journalists, especially news sources.
	Never, ever trust anybody completely.
	Because the way this thing always rolls out, they'll tell you the truth, tell you the truth, tell you the truth.
	They might tell you the truth about vaccines for 20 years, like Alex Jones talking about the adjuvants, the mercury, the aluminum, and things like that, how it's harming kids.
	Now, it's connected to autism and things like that.
	Stay away from these adjuvants.
	And then when it comes time, he tells you, well, it's going to have some adjuvants.
	That's fine. You can take that.
	That's basically sugar water. Yeah, yeah.
	Go ahead and take it. The adjuvants are no problem.
	Now, when you've got somebody like that, don't ever trust anyone.
	People can be wrong, and people can be deliberately set up there as a long-run con, a confidence game.
	To gain your confidence.
	How do they gain your confidence? They tell you the truth for a very long time.
	That's the way the CIA operates.
	They always have, if they've got somebody who's a double or a triple agent and all this stuff, what do they do?
	They've got a double agent.
	They feed the real intelligence for a very long time.
	Even when they intercepted the Enigma decoder, when they saw there was going to be an attack, they looked at it as like, Do we want to expose ourselves that we can read their mail?
	Is this going to be that big a deal?
	Or do we need to wait for something that's bigger?
	Right? That's the way this operates.
	That's the way all this confidence stuff runs by the spies.
	They'll throw real intelligence out there to gain trust, to gain access.
	And then comes the zinger at some point in time.
	And so the following gong...
	Is an opponent of China.
	Does that make them good?
	No, it makes them an opponent of China.
	They may be a co-belligerent, And they may be, you know, when they, I've had a guy on from Falun Gong, he was talking about Chinese torture in prison and about human organ trafficking, how they were killing, taking organs from prisoners and everything.
	He's not the only one saying there's a lot of sources about that.
	So I had him on to talk about that.
	I wasn't interested in letting him push the Falun Gong religion, though.
	And they just are enemies of the Chinese communists.
	But that doesn't mean that they're good guys either, right?
	The enemy of my enemy may be my friend, but it doesn't mean he's a good guy.
	He may be a co-belligerent in the sense that he's a friend, right?
	But don't think that just because somebody opposes the Democrats, just because somebody opposes Biden, that they're good guys.
	No, they're just in it for themselves.
	And so this guy who is the chief financial officer for the Epoch Times, again, Falun Gong, a Chinese communist in exile.
	Wydong Bill Guan.
	And the bill is in quotes.
	He goes by Bill. Guan.
	It reminds me of Steve Bannon and his Chinese billionaire, Guo.
	Now, Guo is not Falun Gong.
	Guo was somebody who was on the inside.
	Guo became a billionaire by working with the Chinese Communist Party.
	That's how he got in control of these different companies, because he was highly connected within the Chinese Communist Party.
	Does that make you suspicious?
	Makes me very suspicious.
	Makes me so suspicious of Guo that it makes me equally suspicious of Bannon.
	Bannon. And of course, we heard the tape that surfaced, I played that for you several times, of Biden, the end of October, talking to a Chinese audience and telling him, you know what's going to happen?
	This is going to be such a mess because of all the vote-by-mail stuff, which Trump did.
	All this vote-by-mail stuff.
	So, you know, they're going to...
	We don't know who they're going to claim is the winner, but whatever happens, we're going to say, B.S., we won it anyway.
	And, of course, they did, through people like Steve Pacinic and Alex Jones and Roger Stone.
	They made money off of that lie.
	And the people who believed them and followed them, come on, go with me to Washington.
	Come on, go with me over to the...
	To the Capitol building, said Trump, and come with me to Washington, said Alex Jones.
	And then they ran as far away as they could, while the rest of these people got into the trap.
	So, Wydong Guan, indicted by a federal grand jury, allegedly told a financial institution that the influx of funds, which boosted the outlet's revenue by nearly $400,000 in a year, said, came from donations.
	Prosecutors allege that he was running a sprawling transnational scheme over a period of four years in which he allegedly purchased prepaid debt cards on the internet at a discount using cryptocurrency.
	He's a thief.
	A thief. And by the way, they mention in the indictment, even the federal government says, these activities, quote, the charges do not relate to the media company's news-gathering activities.
	But you can see what they're doing with the news gathering activities and their headlines.
	And as far as I'm concerned, that's an even bigger crime than stealing credit cards, buying stolen credit cards on the internet with cryptocurrency and using it to make millions of dollars.
	What? When I see somebody selling these lies from the CDC, these lies and this fear about gain-of-function stuff, as far as I'm concerned, that's a bigger crime.
	More people have been hurt with that, right?
	And hurt in the sense of having their lives destroyed, paralyzed, killed, the rest of this stuff.
	That's why it's a bigger crime, a more serious crime.
	And so he got these stolen credit cards.
	He bought them with cryptocurrency. Then he put them into his personal accounts, his corporate accounts, and some of these things.
	And so the money made it into the, some of the money made it into Epoch Times account.
	But folks, if they're going to sell you the fear about a bird flu pandemic, they're worse than an embezzler.
	Worse than an embezzler.
	That's why I had it with Alex Jones in 2020.
	He also made records amounts of money, too.
	Tens of millions of dollars selling the fear.
	The indictment makes it clear that this is not the company itself.
	And then Zero Hedge says this.
	Because you know those two really bad headlines that I gave you before?
	Those are both on Zero Hedge.
	I don't get my Epoch Times stories from Epoch Times.
	I get the ones that Zero Hedge puts out there because Epoch Times has it behind a paywall, and I'm not going to pay them.
	And so, Zero Hedge says...
	Zero Hedge stands with the dozens of highly skilled reporters working for Epic.
	You mean the people who put out that stuff about bird flu being gain of function and it's jumping from humans and cows and all this other kind of stuff?
	Those people? That's right.
	You were the ones who put out that article from Epic Times, Zero Hedge.
	Shame on you as well.
	What's the matter with you?
	They used to be a good news organization.
	I still use them.
	I still use Drudge.
	But do you understand the difference, right?
	You can be a news aggregator, not writing stuff even, and you can still slant the news because it's what you even choose to report.
	If you choose to highlight lies from the government or from CNN or from Infowars or from Epoch Times, you become a propagandist as well, even though you didn't write the article.
	So they said, we stand with the dozens of highly skilled reporters working for Epic, their editors, their staff, which have worked tirelessly for years to produce hard-hitting, accurate, insightful content.
	Oh, really? Until now?
	Until now? Yeah, you need to take back that.
	What does it matter with Zero Hedge?
	Because this isn't the first time they've done this.
	I talked about one a few weeks ago.
	Where they were selling the bird flu pandemic fear.
	And there were, I told you, there were 500 comments.
	There were over 500. And I went page after page after page.
	Some of the most ruthless, sarcasm, cutting remarks.
	They were ratioed. Every one of these comments was, what's the matter with Zero Hedge?
	Yeah, what is the matter with you, Zero Hedge?
	Tell us. What's going on?
	Are you under new management? What's going on?
	Maybe you need to go back and look at the CV of some of these reporters that you've hired lately.
	Do they work for the CIA at some point?
	Maybe now. So, again, Epoch Times has been always kind of conservative stuff, Republican stuff, partisan stuff.
	And you should trust no one.
	You should take these things article by article.
	And if you start to see a long string of these things, That should make you more skeptical.
	So anybody can get something wrong.
	But when they start putting out and pumping out fear and propaganda and lies and they do it over and over again, well, yeah, mark them.
	You still want to take a look.
	I may still look at CNN. I still look at Washington Post, New York Times, Wall Street Journal, all these different ones.
	But understand where the lies are coming from.
	On Rumble, DGA, David, did you see that Trump said that he would release all the Epstein files?
	Yeah, right. Yeah, why didn't he do all this stuff when it was first?
	He's going to have a busy day, isn't he?
	All these things that he refused to do for four years, he's going to do on day one.
	He's going to release Julian Assange.
	He's going to release the Epstein files.
	Maybe he could release the pictures of him and maybe he could tell us about how he met Melania through Jeffrey Epstein.
	Melania was one of his girls.
	Do you believe any of that? I don't believe any of that stuff.
	If he released the Epstein files, Melania really would be.
	I'm happy with him.
	He'd probably have to have the Secret Service watching his bedroom door while he slept.
	Rock fan. Little Ford Schoolhouse.
	Several people at the church we have been attending now have very aggressive forms of cancer.
	I'm so sorry. I think it's from the vaccine.
	I have friends that didn't listen to me.
	They might have been in the medical profession, other things like that.
	Friends and relatives, all we can do is just pray for them at this point in time.
	And by the way, if that happens, don't say anything to anybody about, you know, it's probably because you took the vaccine.
	Just, you know, don't say anything like that to them.
	They've got enough to deal with.
	And you're not going to score any points for being right at this point in time.
	Say it to other people who haven't taken it.
	Well, Cheryl Atkinson had a very good article, and she really did follow through on this, and she found some interesting things.
	The verdict is in.
	The Amish approach to COVID was superior.
	Well, we've known all of these things, and we've talked about this for the last four years.
	Periodically, we'll go back and we'll look at the Amish approach.
	Now, they're not doing any of this stuff, any of this Simon Says stuff from Fauci that had no basis in reality.
	You know, they were not drawing circles around.
	They were still riding in their open horse carriages and stuff like that.
	I was riding around Austin, top-down, mask-off, and all that kind of stuff.
	People were, whoa, you know.
	Even a lot of, you know, the...
	The 30-something, 20-something people that worked at Infowars, they headed to the hills.
	News anchors included.
	Okay? And they could not believe that...
	Just taking this with a grain of salt.
	It was like, seriously?
	You can't figure out what this is?
	Is it just because I've seen this movie before?
	Or you really don't understand what's going on with the people that you're reporting about?
	I just don't know what to say about it.
	He really doesn't either.
	The verdict is in. The Amish approach to COVID was superior.
	It could be one of the most important lessons learned for the next pandemic, and it should make international headlines, says Cheryl Atkinson.
	But it seems like those who made the mistakes during the COVID are not very interested to hear about it.
	She said the Amish population fared no worse.
	Well, that's the conclusion of this paper that she looks at.
	And what is implicit in that, as she points out, well, if you're going to say they fared no worse than the people who did all of the Simon Says stuff from Fauci.
	You know, Fauci says, don't wear a mask.
	Fauci says, wear a mask. Fauci says, wear two masks.
	Fauci says, wear three masks.
	Fauci says, stay in the circle.
	Stay six feet apart from other people.
	Stay in these different spaced out circles when you're checking out.
	Only go into the...
	Fauci says, we've got to have all the traffic...
	In the grocery stores, going in one direction.
	All the way, well, you know, the Amish were not doing that.
	They don't have to go to a grocery store anyway.
	They're independent. That's why they froze their technology in the 1800s.
	They didn't want to get involved in our complicated interlocking interdependency.
	And there's a lot of wisdom in that, right?
	Yeah. The Bible talks about not being unequally yoked with unbelievers and marriage and things like that.
	They didn't want to be unequally yoked with this Sodom and Gomorrah degenerate idiotic culture that we've got.
	They cut the ties to that a long time ago.
	So there was a lot of wisdom there in the Amish community seeing this stuff coming.
	But the reality is is that if they fared no worse Even if that was true actually the truth that she also Investigates as no they actually did much better, which we all knew that as well, right?
	But she also exposes how these people are lying to us through their reports so she said according to Available data and a federally funded study that attempted to evaluate the Amish approach these findings imply that the US could have avoided experimental vaccines that have serious side effects Could have circumvented costly shutdowns that devastated the economy
	You know, these things are all things that Trump did.
	These are things that Trump did, things that Trump will do again.
	Shut down, devastated the economy, shut down travel, businesses, mental health, education at the expense of trillions of U.S. tax dollars.
	She fails to mention the churches.
	Of course, the Amish would not shut down their churches either.
	They believed it.
	Unlike these faithless, posing pastors who did shut down their churches.
	The Amish chose a different path that led to COVID tearing through the community at warp speed.
	Well, nobody died.
	Everybody got the cold.
	They got over it.
	You know what? They didn't go to the hospitals.
	They didn't take any of the hospital protocol that was funded by Trump, that was planned by Fauci.
	They didn't have their family members Medically kidnapped and killed for money that was being paid by Trump.
	So when they take communion, they dump their wine into a cup.
	They take turns to drink it out of that cup.
	So you go all the way down the line.
	Everybody drinks out of that cup.
	If one person has coronavirus, the rest of the church is going to get coronavirus.
	This guy who she talked to said they weren't denying COVID. You know, it was a bad flu.
	They survived it. People die from the flu every year.
	People get pneumonia, they die from the flu.
	I'm not downplaying COVID when I say that it was a bad flu.
	But that's what it was.
	That's all it was.
	The flu ought to be taken seriously every year.
	And depending on what your health condition is, it can be a very serious thing.
	But that's all this was.
	It was not a novel virus.
	This person said, it's a worse thing to quit working for the Amish than it is to die.
	Working is more important than dying.
	To shut down and say that we can't go to church, that we can't get together with family, that we can't see our old people in the hospital, we've got to quit working.
	It's going to completely go against everything that we believe.
	You're changing our culture completely to try to act like they wanted us to act the last year, and we're not going to do it.
	Wisdom, discernment, integrity, principles.
	The Amish are everything that the Americans used to be and no longer are.
	He said that also meant avoiding hospitals.
	Yamish simply refused to go to the hospital even when they were sick.
	Because that would mean they couldn't see visitors.
	And of course, by being attached to family and friends and visitors and church, the blessing was that they didn't get kidnapped and poisoned like Fauci wanted.
	Solid proof was not easy to find, she said, because the Amish didn't typically take COVID tests.
	Why? Well, they had the wisdom and discernment to know that the COVID tests were there, if not to get you sick, to get you locked down.
	We didn't want the COVID test.
	We didn't want the numbers to go up, because then they would shut things down more.
	What's the advantage of getting a test, he said.
	They also didn't wear a mask or vaccinate.
	No, we're not getting vaccines, he said at the time.
	Of course not. We've all got COVID, so why would I get a vaccine?
	Right? We all got it.
	We all got it to one degree or the other.
	And now we have immunity because that's the way our bodies, designed by God, work.
	Even though Fauci, Mr.
	Science, tried to get everybody to say, well, natural immunity from having anything is not as good as having a shot to keep you from getting that thing.
	What's the logic in that?
	That's as idiotic as to say my mask doesn't protect me, your mask protects me.
	My vaccine doesn't protect me, your vaccine protects me.
	My immune system that has conquered a disease doesn't protect me.
	Instead, I need a vaccine that's going to train my immune system, an artificial imitation of a disease.
	It's going to train my immune system Well, even if that were true, it's not going to train your immune system as well as if it defeated the real thing.
	There's absolutely no logic behind any of this stuff.
	I think that's one of the most disturbing things.
	That was one of the things that, when we come up to the anniversary of Father's Day, it had me so depressed in 2020.
	I was thinking about the idiotic country that my children are going to live in.
	It still bothers me There's no evidence of any more deaths among the Irish than in places that shut down tightly Of course not. And they really didn't have any excess deaths either.
	Now, the study claims that they did.
	And Cheryl Atkinson looks between the lines of the study and draws some logical conclusions about how they're lying.
	And I'll show you how they lie. In a normal scientific environment, the full weight of the research community would be put behind efforts to learn more and to launch studies with verifiable data.
	That's not happening.
	Instead, it's the opposite.
	Just like what we saw with, you know...
	Alternative treatments. And that was one of the things.
	Steve Kirsch, who, you know, big anti-vaccine activist now, he got the vaccine first time through.
	And he was working with the medical community.
	And the thing that woke him up was he said, hey, we got this new approach here.
	Let's try this. Nope, we're not trying anything.
	We're not trying anything except the vaccine.
	We're locking everybody down. Wait, that doesn't make any sense, right?
	If this is such an emergency, you'd want to try everything.
	So immediately he says, whoa, something's wrong here.
	And he starts doing his research.
	She said there appeared to be a bias on the part of some outside the Amish community to throw cold water on this strategy, just like they did with ivermectin.
	She said a history professor put together this report.
	A history professor, not a scientist, not an epidemiologist.
	He said Amish excess deaths nationally shot up.
	And he said they shot up from September to November of 2021, matching the national pattern in deaths.
	Really? You got any data to show about that?
	No, they won't show any data about that.
	It's simply a lie. As we all know, the reason that this went up, and we've had insurance companies talk about this and then come up, you know, well, One America in Indiana.
	We've seen something that we typically don't see once every 200 years.
	It was more than three standard deviations away from the mean.
	This is crazy, and it all happened from September on.
	Fourth quarter, third and fourth quarter of 2021.
	And he said, now they're saying that these are people who didn't die from COVID. But I know that's not true.
	You know that's not true?
	How do you know that's not true?
	You got any data to prove that?
	Now, he just knows it. He can sense it in his bones.
	Maybe he was told. Maybe he was told to shut up about it.
	I know that this had to be from COVID. And I know that nobody dies from COVID if they're vaccinated.
	Therefore, this has to be unvaccinated people dying from COVID. He just made all that stuff up.
	These people made all this stuff up as well.
	Yeah, the only reason the deaths shot up was because of jabs.
	And the Amish were not getting jabs.
	This person is lying big time.
	And we'll show you the proof of that here.
	He seemed to have no realization that he was making the opposite point than what he intended.
	If it were true that the Amish tracked just like everybody else, says Cheryl Atkinson, while avoiding shutdowns, masking, isolation, experimental vaccine, and all the expense, then didn't they have a better approach?
	Doesn't that mean that all the stuff that Trump and Fauci did was wrong?
	If these people did none of it and they got the same results?
	And so, here's the other thing, too.
	If it was COVID, why didn't the excess deaths of these people who took no precautions but got COVID at the very beginning of 2020, why did the excess deaths not happen then?
	That's another refutation of what they're saying.
	Anyway, so this report was published in the Journal of Religion and Health.
	Closed but not protected.
	Excess deaths among the Amish and Mennonites.
	Mennonites is key. During the COVID-19 pandemic.
	She said the title alone seems to wrongly imply that there were more deaths among the non-compliant Amish than in the rest of the U.S. And then it says the excess death rate for Amish and Mennonites spiked a 125% increase in November of 2020.
	She said it seems to me like they're clearly intended to leave the impression that the Amish Midnight suffered a far worse fate for having rejected CDC recommendations.
	Well, if that was the case, why didn't it happen any earlier?
	She said that's untrue, however.
	It didn't take a lot of digging to find serious flaws in the study.
	When I contacted the study's lead author, Rachel Stein, she refused to answer some very important questions.
	Cheryl Atkinson does journalism.
	She asked these people, let me ask you some questions about this report.
	First obvious problem was that the researchers failed to study the very population at issue, the Amish.
	Instead, they studied a confusing conglomeration of Amish and Mennonite.
	And this makes a difference because the Mennonites are more likely than the Amish to live lives closer to those of ordinary Americans.
	And they followed the public health recommendations.
	For example, almost all the residents living at two Mennonite home communities in Lancaster, Pennsylvania got vaccinated for COVID. The Mennonites got vaccinated.
	Numerous vaccine clinics have been held at the Mennonite home, the Woodcrest Villa, resulting in almost all residents being vaccinated against COVID-19 infection, they said at the time, according to the facility's website.
	These Mennonite residents also wore masks.
	They isolated. They followed Fauci's Simon Says protocols, including social distancing.
	So, in this report, called closed but not protected, the quote-unquote scientists may well have been analyzing the regular CDC-compliant population.
	The second issue with this report is that they had, in fact, omitted the most populous Amish community in America, Pennsylvania.
	Instead, they focus their attention exclusively on Ohio, with the second and the fourth largest Amish settlements in the USA. When I asked the study author, Stein, who is at West Virginia University, why she excluded Pennsylvania, she provided a surprising answer.
	She indicated that she and her colleagues chose Ohio because it had a disproportionately high number of Amish and Mennonite obituaries compared to Pennsylvania.
	Oh. So you cherry-picked your data.
	You wanted to find that there were more deaths.
	So you went to the place where the people were dying, not to Pennsylvania.
	You went to where there were Amish and Midnight communities.
	You conflated the two groups, even though they were following completely different protocols.
	They rigged this study.
	See how easy it is to rig these studies.
	See how easy it is to scope this out.
	And good work by Cheryl Atkinson.
	Ohio is home to approximately 23% of the U.S. Amish population.
	But it contributed 23%, I'm sorry, 56% of total obituaries.
	In other words, people died at a rate twice of what was happening in the other places because they're including in there Mennonites.
	This is their bias that they're trying to rig this with.
	She said, when they saw the evidence of a more positive outcome in Pennsylvania, fewer obituaries, they excluded that data from their study.
	So, she said, I think the most significant flaw with a study is that it buries an earth-shattering finding.
	One that is contrary to establishment science narratives.
	Even using the worst case outcome that likely exaggerated the toll that COVID took on the Amish, the researchers found no evidence that they suffered any worse than the rest of America.
	So, basically what they did was they went to a place where they were following the rest of the average protocol and said, look, it's just like everywhere else.
	It's like, okay, well... But it's the Amish.
	Well, it wasn't the Amish. It was the Mennonites.
	And they were dying like everybody else because they were following the Fauci protocols and they were following and they were getting the Trump shot and the rest of this stuff.
	She said the Amish approach is superior.
	And, you know, the thing is, We're good to go.
	You see, this is what Michael Mann did, you know, and I was involved with a group, and of course he had done it much earlier than that, but it was 15 years ago I was involved with this group that was suing him to get the data.
	He was working at a public institution.
	He did all this stuff at the public institution while he was being paid by taxpayer money.
	He published the results that were used for policy, and yet he refused to show us the data.
	Folks, that's not science.
	That's lies and propaganda.
	Michael Mann, the guy who created the hockey stick thing, and he got a big lawsuit from Mark Stein about this.
	Mark Stein called them names and stuff.
	But the fundamental issue is that Michael Mann fought.
	And initially, the University of Virginia, where his work was done, said, yeah, you're right.
	It was paid for by the public, and it should be public.
	And they were going to turn it over. And the last minute, Michael Mann gets in and says, that's my data.
	Well, it's not your data. You're paid by a public institution.
	And you published this and used it for public policy.
	She said, in response to my request to see the studies supporting materials and data and communications, you know, like, remember Climategate?
	That's how they got on to Michael Mann, because in his communications with the British in East Anglia, Climate Center in the UK, University of East Anglia, they were saying, hey, we've got to hide the decline, our models don't work, and all the rest of this stuff.
	So in their communications, they want to hide their communications.
	They want to hide their data. She said the public owns this.
	It was a taxpayer-funded study.
	West Virginia University stalled and then eventually provided only heavily redacted materials that revealed very little except that several other observers had also questioned the study.
	She said the National Science Foundation used taxpayer money to fund the questioned study.
	They also provided no meaningful information because Cheryl Atkinson asked them too.
	So the federal government, the National Science Foundation, so-called science, doesn't want to show you the data.
	Just like they don't want to show you the data about the climate, MacGuffin.
	And the university doesn't want to show you the data either.
	And the researcher who wrote the paper and came up with the conclusion doesn't want to show you the data.
	And so she said, you hear links to the trail of letters that she wrote to all these different people.
	She's got one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.
	Ten different letters there that you can read.
	These people are hiding data paid for by the taxpayers.
	You know what this is? This is a validation.
	It's a validation of scientific fraud.
	It is a validation of political fraud.
	That's what it is. That's what it was with Michael Mann.
	That's what it is with this study.
	That's how these people operate.
	Always has been how they operate.
	I'm going to read some of the comments here before we take a break.
	Rumble. Junior Barner.
	I nominate David Knight for a president.
	Well, thank you. I decline. I decline.
	I don't see the solutions in Washington.
	I couldn't fix Washington.
	Trump can't fix Washington.
	Biden doesn't want to fix Washington.
	He likes it the way it is. I think Trump does too.
	On Rumble, John Basiglione, I guess, Trump is going to keep Agenda 2030 on schedule.
	Yes. And he set the table for the big show.
	As a lame duck president, he will really do the bidding of the oligarchy.
	Yes, the second, either one of them, either one of them.
	It's nightmarish to think about how bad both Trump and Biden have been in their first term.
	And the realization that historically, folks, the second term has always been the worst.
	Whether the person is a big government socialist or a supposedly small government conservative, the second term, the lame term, is really lame.
	And it's worse than lame.
	It's really, really bad.
	On Rockfan. Handy, good to see you there.
	It wasn't a pandemic in EMS unless you count the loss of common sense.
	That's right. Did you know that?
	Yeah, we could get swabbed for your loss of common sense.
	Yep, there's no common sense in this one.
	Go over there and stand in that line.
	Rockfan, rational lampooner.
	Many of the poisoned and jabbed are living forever in denial.
	My lefty brother took the chump shots after I warned him he got cancer.
	Does not respond to any alternate health resources.
	Yeah. That was something we saw before we had friends and relatives who were caught up in the medical industry and get cancer.
	And it's like, well, at least try some of this other stuff.
	No, I'm not going to try it. On Rockfan.
	Dustin Helm. Thank you for the tip.
	I appreciate that. Thanks for keeping it real, David.
	Your show is one of the few I can listen to these days without spontaneously yelling BS at my screen.
	Yeah, I know how that is.
	And my family knows how that is.
	I used to listen to the radio, too.
	It was hard.
	Rockfan. Angela Oswald.
	I just sent an email to you to share a free subscription to the Epic Times Digital to get past the paywall.
	I can gift a free membership.
	Well, thank you. Let's see what else they've got there.
	On Rockfin, Gard.
	Good to see you, Gard. Hey, you know what?
	Somebody reminded me, I didn't know that your birthday fell on Monday.
	We talked about Jason Barker's birthday, but his was actually on Sunday, I believe, the 2nd, and Gard's was on Monday the 3rd.
	So happy birthday, Gard. Happy birthday, Gard.
	Yeah, yeah. Everybody check out Liberty Conspiracy.
	That's what Gard is busy doing.
	I mean, he is... Putting out a lot of content.
	Of course, he also does things for MRCTV, but Liberty Conspiracy is his key thing.
	And you can also find him on Substack and subscribe to his Sunday newsletter.
	He puts together a great newsletter of important but obscure stories there with Liberty Conspiracy.
	Guard Goldsmith says, Man, yeah, Michael Mann, the hockey...
	The hockey stick guy. I call him the hockey puck, remembering back to Don Rickles.
	Hey, you hockey puck!
	Man, it's such a towering fraud, yes.
	That Canadian lawsuit, the one they had with Mark Stein...
	It's a perfect example.
	He thought the man that he was suing would settle, but the man fought and brought it to the discovery process, and man backed off.
	Well, that's a different one, I guess, maybe, than the one with Mark Stein.
	I think Mark Stein, as intelligent and as articulate as Mark Stein is, I think it was a mistake.
	Not to have a lawyer. He should have not represented himself.
	I mean, I would represent myself if I was in a criminal case because I would argue jury nullification.
	I'm not going to break any laws that are really bad.
	I might break arbitrary laws, but I'm not going to break some kind of a moral law.
	And if it's some kind of an arbitrary law, it's probably unconstitutional, and I would argue that.
	I would argue jury nullification.
	That's what New Jersey Weed Man did, and it worked.
	But that's the only time that I would ever want to represent myself.
	That's a very effective strategy, especially in Texas.
	In Texas, you can demand a jury trial if you get some kind of a traffic ticket.
	And every time I got a traffic speeding ticket or something like that, I demanded a jury trial.
	And I really didn't have the time that I could take off to go to this other, you know, speed trap city that I had gone through and gotten the ticket.
	I didn't have the time to take off and go there.
	But what it wound up being, we didn't realize, we didn't do it in order to try to beat the rap, so to speak.
	I did it just because I thought it was wrong, and I honestly thought it was wrong.
	And I was going to demand a jury trial, and I was going to argue that they nullify it.
	And for their own good.
	If you've got a police department here that is engaged in setting up speed traps to fund itself, then you need to nullify that.
	And I was going to get Karen to follow me, Karen and Travis, and do a Mr.
	Smith Goes to Washington thing.
	But the DA there...
	Even bureaucrats hate bureaucracy.
	That's right. And they hated having to come up with a jury for that.
	They really didn't want to do a jury trial.
	So he had a right to do that, but they didn't want that.
	So he basically just negotiated away with, oh, it was something that didn't affect my points, and it was a small fine and everything.
	It's like, okay, all right, we'll just let it go with that.
	I should have followed through, but I was just so busy.
	I mean, you know. You've got to pick your battles.
	In some cases, what is the most important fight to take?
	Like I said the other day, I think every hill, when we had this masking stuff, every hill was a hill to die on.
	But there are other things like, well, do I really want to go fight the BLM at the Bundy Ranch, or do I want to go fight this traffic ticket?
	You can't do everything when you get into these situations.
	We're going to take a quick break and we'll be right back.
	We'll be right back.
	Jason Barker says, I got a summons for jury duty.
	I'm going to let them know I'm for nullification.
	That'll do it. You know, being registered as a libertarian used to do it for me back...
	For the jury duty stuff.
	And, you know, there's some cases that I would have liked to have been on the jury.
	The problem is, is that it's very difficult.
	You know, they have alternate jurors in case, who set in on the entire case.
	So even when you go to deliberation, if you're in there and you start doing the 12 Angry Men thing, which, by the way, that was a really good movie.
	If you've never seen it, it was a black and white movie, and it had...
	Henry Fonda in it, and a lot of really good cast that was in it.
	And one guy who's holding out eventually over a period of time, he convinces the other people.
	That was an interesting movie.
	But if you start doing that 12 Angry Men thing, you start doing jury nullification, I've heard a lot of stories where they just take you off the jury and put an alternate juror in there.
	So before we get into this, let me just give you some of the reminders that Travis has put up here.
	Remind people to like the stream.
	Please, people, like the stream.
	Okay. It really does.
	It is necessary. This show is heavily muted, shadowbanned, whatever you want to call it.
	I mean, really, they talk about it being shadowbanned.
	I mean, what is happening with shadowbanning at Twitter, for example?
	You know, you can mute people if they're trolls or something like that.
	You can block them, which is, you know, everybody, oh, well, they blocked me.
	You know, that's like being kicked off of Twitter.
	Or Twitter can just leave you there like they've left me there.
	And they can just mute what I put out to say so that most people don't see.
	And I looked at this the other day. For some reason, somebody that I had no interest in politically, the position that they were coming from, I did not follow them.
	It was not there because anybody that I know follows them, because it shows you those little type of things.
	But somehow it shows up.
	And this person, whose opinion I adamantly disagree with, Has had 4,000 followers and had 4,000 views.
	Now, maybe they paid to get that put out there, but I don't know why they would do that with just 4,000 followers.
	But, you know, everyone, you know, had a number of people that had seen this thing equivalent to all of their followers.
	And all their followers are not on Twitter every single day all the time.
	So something else is going on there.
	I looked at one of mine, and I supposedly have 136,000 followers on Twitter.
	At one point in time, that was a thing, you know, and it was good.
	I could reach a lot of people. But my 136,000 people, and I had 400 people who had seen that, according to Twitter.
	She had 4,000 followers and had 4,000 views.
	So, please like the stream, wherever you see it.
	We're very hard to find with iTunes and with all these different places.
	There's a lot of podcasts out there, so it's hard to go through that, even if they are not We're on,
	um, uh, it's a third one we're on somewhere.
	Where is it, Travis? You upload them every day.
	Odyssey, BitChute, Ugetude, Rumble, and we've got a Substack as well.
	Okay, yeah, and on Substack.
	Yeah, we've got a Substack as well.
	Also on Roku. Yes, and on Roku.
	And that reminds me of this other note you've got here.
	You can find Roku channel...
	By searching The David Knight Show on the Roku app or by searching The David Knight Show Roku in your search engine of choice.
	Please rate the show five stars.
	Help it get out to more people.
	You know, we had one of the episodes taken down, but they haven't bothered us since then, so maybe they're going to leave us alone.
	So let's talk about what's going on with the pharmaceutical stuff, with the Trump shot, with the death shot that is out there.
	So many have died, says a former Japanese minister.
	He actually apologized.
	Now, he's not a Fauci, right?
	He's not some kind of health bureaucrat or some pretend scientist like Fauci.
	He is apologizing for this.
	Former Minister for Internal Affairs and Communications in Japan.
	Presently a member of the House of Representatives.
	And he apologized.
	Have you seen any apologies from any of our congressmen, even as they pull in Fauci and question him?
	There's no apologies from them.
	There's not going to be any apologies from Fauci either.
	As a matter of fact, Fauci is being portrayed as a victim.
	By Democrat Congress people.
	So, Dr. Fauci, can you please share with us the nature of the threats you have received since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic?
	You can read better than that, can't you?
	How'd you get in Congress? Yes, there have been...
	Everything from harassments by emails, texts, letters of myself, my wife, my three daughters.
	There have been credible death threats leading to the arrests of two individuals.
	And credible death threats mean someone who clearly was on their way to kill me.
	And it's required my having protective services essentially all the time.
	It is very troublesome to me.
	It is much more troublesome because they've involved my wife and my three daughters.
	At these moments, how do you feel?
	He gets choked up? How do you feel?
	Let's talk about your emotions. Terrible.
	Do you continue to receive threats today?
	Yes, I do. Every time someone gets up and says I'm responsible for the death of people throughout the world...
	You are. You are. You filthy little elf.
	Look, your wife is getting death threats?
	You mean the ethics?
	Total nepotism.
	He puts his wife in charge of ethics, like I said the other day.
	He's got one of his lieutenants who is testifying.
	Ethics? We got ethics there?
	We have an ethics department?
	Do we have any ethics? No.
	His wife was in charge of ethics.
	She's responsible, too.
	Hey, you know, Fauci, you got death threats, but the people that you pushed this stuff on died.
	They actually have family members that died.
	You get all choked up because you get death threats.
	What about the people whose family members were killed by your ventilators?
	What about people who were killed because you kept cheap, effective treatment from them and gave them remdesivir, which everybody agrees doesn't help anything.
	You tried to push this stuff for money.
	You pushed it for AIDS. You pushed it for Ebola.
	You approved it yourself and made it the standard of care, even though it didn't help anybody.
	It killed people with liver and kidney disease.
	And I can't remember which one of those is the primary one, but both of those.
	Both of those. I think it was the kidney was the primary cause of death.
	But it destroys people's livers as well.
	Yeah, he's the victim.
	He's the victim. And, you know, there's no apologies from any of these Republicans for letting this guy go.
	There's no apology from Trump for having...
	Trump justifies keeping Fauci there.
	Wouldn't even fire him after the election, even though people were begging.
	I've played those clips for you many times.
	You know, the only place is that every once in a while, there'll be one member of the legislative body in one country who will stand up and speak out.
	Andrew Bridgen in the UK. Well, they do.
	They said, you're anti-Semitic, and they kicked him out of the Conservative Party.
	Oh, fine. You know, that tells you more about the Conservative Party than it does about Andrew Bridgen.
	He didn't say any... You know why they called him anti-Semitic?
	Because he quoted somebody who said, this is a Holocaust.
	A Holocaust. Oh, well, that's anti-Semitic.
	Yeah, they've got that word reserved for them, right?
	You can't use a Holocaust about anything other than Jews and Nazi Germany.
	Anybody else says it's a Holocaust.
	That word has now been banned for use from anybody else.
	It's like the N-word, right?
	So you can't say that.
	You're racist. You're out of the Conservative Party.
	We had in the summer of 2020, I'll never forget...
	There was a member of the Italian legislature who stood up and he was furious.
	He said, look at the number of people that are dying and look at the lies because they were the first country outside of China to do all this stuff.
	And the data that was there, John Rapoport released that data, and I was talking about it before Trump shut us down.
	We had two weeks' worth of data out of Italy.
	John Rapoport was the one who found it.
	I talked about it many times before Trump shut it down.
	I continued to talk about it.
	What they found was, in Italy...
	The average age of the person was a couple of years beyond life expectancy.
	It was like 79 and 80 years old, the average age of the people who were dying.
	And the average person who died had two and a half other comorbidities.
	Again, did they die with it or from it?
	And of course, we also knew at that time, we knew the games that they were playing with PCR. Well, later that summer, An Italian legislator stood up and was ranting.
	He was angry. He had the paperwork and he was banging it on the desk.
	I thought, finally, this is going to maybe do something.
	No, everybody just ignored it.
	They ignored it at Infowars because they wanted to sell you stuff based on your fear.
	And then you've got the EU delegates.
	Remember, there was six or seven of them who stood up.
	And so we want to see this contract.
	Between the EU, it was, you know, an agreement that was done between Albert Borla of Pfizer and the European president of the commission or something like that, Ursula Fond of lying.
	And they said this is, they wouldn't give it to us, and then they gave us this, and look at this, and he holds it up.
	One page after the other, completely blacked out.
	He goes, this is not releasing the data.
	Why are they hiding this stuff from us?
	And of course we know, because they committed a crime and they don't want you to see it.
	There's absolutely, look, there's no national security.
	Are the Russians, if the Russians see this agreement between Ursula Fond of lying and Pfizer, are the Russians then going to use that somehow to destroy our country?
	You know, this is how the national security lie and paranoia that has been foisted upon us after World War II because of nuclear weapons and everything.
	Oh, well, we've got to have everything national security secret.
	Well, everything is done that way now.
	There's absolutely no reason why any of these contracts need to be redacted and hidden.
	Except for the fact that national security is not about securing us against nuclear war or anything else.
	It's about securing their job.
	It's about these people in national government keeping themselves safe and secure.
	Because they're criminals.
	They're criminals. That's why.
	And so, yeah, poor Fauci.
	Poor Fauci. What about the credible deaths of the people you killed, Fauci?
	You lying murderer.
	And the Democrats who support him.
	And as I pointed out, we don't get any apologies from the Republicans.
	We get show trials.
	They won't stop anything.
	They won't shut down any program.
	They won't shut down any agency, any bureaucracy, any department.
	They won't shut down anything.
	They continue to fund it.
	All. So what does this Japanese guy say?
	On the 31st of May, thousands of people gathered in Tokyo to participate in what organizers have touted as the world's biggest protest against the WHO. See, it was that pandemic treaty.
	Activated people. Notably, Kazuhiro Haraguchi, a former minister for internal affairs, present member of the House of Representatives, gave a rousing speech that was well-received by his audience, apologizing for the Japanese government's handling of the quote-unquote vaccine and expressing his grief for those who succumbed to the vaccine-linked deaths.
	You won't see this. From Fauci, Republicans, or Democrats?
	I apologize to all of you.
	So many have died, and they shouldn't have.
	Will you ever hear something like that from Trump?
	Never! Never!
	That's why I will never support that guy!
	I wouldn't vote for him for Dog Catcher!
	He's a murderer!
	Like Fauci! The two of them!
	Oh, well, one's a...
	They're extremely opposite.
	One's a Republican, the other one's a Democrat.
	Yeah, right. Do you believe that kind of crap?
	You are so easily controlled by the Hegelian dialectic, aren't you?
	If you believe that Trump is on our side, he won't apologize to save his life or political career.
	That's what Luke Rudasky was saying.
	That's what Dr. Peter McCullough was saying.
	And so many people said, well, if you want to apologize, at least stop bragging about killing people, okay?
	We know what you did.
	You think we don't know what you did with that vaccine?
	And yet, it's the MAGA people.
	Cannot accept it.
	I am getting so much hate stuff from these MAGA people for attacking Trump, but also for attacking Alex for lying to you about the sugar water that he called this vaccine, right?
	And telling you, it's okay.
	It's only got aluminum and mercury.
	You can inject that in. That's fine.
	Do it for Trump. You know, put the aluminum and mercury in your veins.
	It's no problem. It's like, I put that stuff up, and it's amazing to watch people and how they cannot handle that truth.
	Instead, they want to shoot the messenger, literally.
	So I had a goat tree contact me.
	He says, are you okay? You seeing all this stuff that's coming out there about you?
	These people, you really, you know, kick the hornet's nest here.
	It's like, yeah, well, it is what it is.
	It is what it is. I'm not going to back off from any of these people.
	I'm not going to back off from the truth.
	You work for Alex.
	How dare you tell people he's lying to everybody and pushing these lies that kill people?
	I said, okay, let me just ask you.
	Was it a good thing for Chris Cuomo to lie to people at CNN? To tell them that ivermectin is horse medicine, even when he's taking it for himself?
	And we knew that he had a reaction to the vaccine.
	Because, you know, he described the symptoms he was going through.
	Everybody says, reaction to the vaccine.
	No, it's not a reaction to the vaccine.
	Now he's hinting that it is.
	Now he says that the ivermectin helped him.
	And on and on, right?
	Was it good for him to do that then?
	I mean, he's working for CNN. Isn't he supposed to say if CNN lies to people, isn't he supposed to push the lies out there because they pay him?
	How about Tucker Carlson?
	Who wouldn't talk about what was going on with 9-11, wouldn't talk about what was going on with the lockdown, the rest of the stuff, or the vaccines, because that's his sponsor.
	Is it okay for Tucker to lie for Fox because they're paying him?
	Should I have lied for Alex because he was paying me?
	And I asked these people, I said, so...
	Will you lie? Will you kill?
	If people pay you?
	Do you have any principles at all?
	How pathetic you are.
	That you attack me for telling the truth.
	Political, you whores, you people out there trying.
	Yeah, pay me, pay me. Vote for Trump.
	Never, never will I vote for him.
	He will never even apologize for the murders.
	It'd be bad enough. I wouldn't vote for him if he apologized for it, quite frankly.
	It would be a judgment issue.
	But this is a character issue now.
	Because we know what he did.
	We know that he knows what he did.
	He thinks we don't know that he knows.
	And some of you are lying to yourselves.
	Haraguchi said, when I travel around in different areas, again, this is this Japanese legislator, I see those who can't stand, who can't walk, who can't go to school, who can't go to work.
	He said, we could have prevented these injuries from happening, but we didn't.
	Do you see that, Fauci, when you go around places?
	Maybe nobody shows that to you.
	How about you, Trump? Do you see any of that?
	Biden, do you see any of that stuff?
	No. They wouldn't care if they did.
	How about all you congressmen?
	How about you, Rand? You want to focus on the gain-of-function lab.
	You don't want to talk about remdesivir because your wife bought stock in remdesivir.
	You think we don't know, Rand?
	Oh, because your wife got it.
	It wasn't insider trading for you, right?
	You know, one of the biggest insider traders are Dan Crenshaw, but that's not a surprise.
	It is a surprise for Rand, a disappointment as well.
	Going even further, Haraguchi boldly urged his audience to overthrow the current government.
	Quote, unquote. Overthrow the current government.
	Yes, that's what we should do here.
	I am proud to say that because it's the truth.
	How do we overthrow the government here?
	I don't know that they have the 10th Amendment or anything like that in Japan.
	We have the means to overthrow the government locally.
	We can nullify it.
	We can block it.
	We have lesser magistrates that are there.
	We can ignore it and walk away if we've got the right people in at the local level.
	We have seen this with medical marijuana.
	Whatever you think of marijuana, it showed us the pattern.
	That when the federal government comes in and demands things for which they have no authority, in areas that they have no authority because of the Tenth Amendment, That we can ignore them.
	Even when you've got somebody like Jeff Sessions, you can ignore it.
	If you've got good people at the local level.
	And again, I'm not supporting marijuana.
	It's people like John Boehner, who was unalterably opposed to medical marijuana or marijuana of any form until he retired as Speaker of the House.
	And then he cashed in.
	And he became a lobbyist and a promoter and a stockholder and a company that sold marijuana, even though as Speaker of the House he was unalterably opposed to it, he said.
	That's his quote. Well, he got altered.
	He saw religion at the altar, didn't he?
	He saw the money there on the altar and he grabbed it.
	So yeah, we need to overthrow the current government.
	And the way you do it is nullification, non-commandeering.
	These are established principles.
	You can block them with juries.
	You can block them. It's difficult.
	I'm not saying it's easy.
	But that's the path that we've got.
	And we need to focus on that and popularize that.
	Because that's the way to do it.
	Going into an armed conflict with the government is not the way to overthrow the government or to solve anything.
	It's only going to make it worse. That's what they want.
	That's why they're using Trump.
	They want a civil war.
	We don't want a civil war.
	No matter how angry you are, don't fall for that trap.
	You know, you do something like that, that's like, you know, go back to World War II, how FDR was trying to provoke an attack by both the Germans and the Japanese.
	The Germans were smart enough not to take the bait.
	Not the Japanese.
	They took the bait. And it was on.
	Don't take the bait for a civil war, but overthrow this government.
	Do it locally. Nullification.
	Non-commandeering.
	Lesser magistrates.
	Jury nullification. Educate people.
	Okay, so he says, let's defeat those demonic forces, said Haraguchi.
	He called them demonic forces.
	He called for government and institutional accountability.
	Yeah, we need to hold these people, like Rand Paul, like the Epoch Times, these people who portray themselves as conservatives.
	We need to hold them responsible for this stuff.
	They always like to focus on the stuff that's in China.
	So they don't focus on the enemy in the United States.
	So that we don't see their crimes.
	Haraguchi disclosed personal details about his own struggles after vaccination.
	For one, he said, he had contracted a rapidly progressing form of cancer.
	This is what has brought him to this position.
	He said, this time last year I had neither eyebrows nor hair.
	Two out of the three supposed vaccines that I received were lethal batches.
	He got jabbed three times.
	It's going to take people a while to figure out what happened.
	Survivors, even if they're disabled, family members of those who have died, eventually the wrath is going to come.
	And it's going to be more than letters.
	I just hope people don't get violent because that'll make people like Fauci the victim.
	If you want to get violent, it's going to make him the hero.
	Do you understand? He needs to be minimized, not made a martyr for the state.
	They want that.
	He needs to be put into jail.
	Better yet, put him in some stocks and throw, like they used to do at Colonial Williamsburg, and throw vegetables at him.
	Just leave him there.
	Feed him occasionally. Haraguchi's cancer diagnosis led him to lose hair significantly, prompting him to wear a wig.
	He recalled an incident where his appearance became a point of distraction in the Japanese legislative body.
	Haraguchi described how a political opponent was caught up with his wig instead of discussing government matters.
	That never happens here in the United States.
	They don't have people talking about Donald Trump's hair or Joe Biden's hair.
	You know, Rush Limbaugh used to call Joe Biden plugs because he had a lot of hair plugs.
	We don't do that here.
	We don't focus on the wig instead of the policy, do we?
	Yeah, we do. Haraguchi decried Japan's prohibition of ivermectin.
	It's produced domestically there.
	Why? There's no patent on it, right?
	It was developed by a Japanese doctor, Satoshi Omuru, who Haraguchi contended could have played a decisive role in tackling COVID-19.
	Rather, the Japanese government banned the drug in a move which Haraguchi suggested was due to economic issues.
	That's right. And, of course, it was also a global bio-war.
	They, you know, both of those things are at play.
	These people want to make billions of dollars, so they don't want anything that's cheap and effective.
	They want to kill people, so they don't want anything that's safe and effective.
	He said the ivermectin drugs are cheap.
	They don't want it because it'll interfere with the sales of the vaccines.
	LifeSite News has this story that said, likewise, in nearby Philippines, an intense discussion took place in their House of Representatives, unlike America, where we just have show trials.
	Regarding the alarming rise of more than 290,000 excess deaths due to the COVID vaccines.
	There... An attorney, Tanya Latt, condemned the government's lack of accountability.
	She said there are Filipino people who are sick and tired of how the Department of Health has let us down, has refused to admit that people are dying, turning a blind eye to the people who are getting sick, to the turbo cancers, to the myocarditis, to the children who are suddenly sick as if they were 60, 70-year-old people.
	We look into their eyes.
	There doesn't seem to be any sympathy for the people who have died, just like there isn't from Fauci.
	Sympathy for Fauci because he got some deserved hate mail, but not for the people who died.
	Not for the sick children.
	We look into their eyes, there seems to be no sympathy for the people who died, for the people who are now physically disabled because of these vaccines.
	You know there could be a global revolt Against the global governance which is in place folks it isn't coming Global government is not coming global governance is already here If it wasn't here they couldn't have done 2020 with everybody every party every country these government leaders doing the same thing at the same time and progressive steps You know that was a demonstration
	not only of the gullibility of the populations and the power of propaganda and psychological manipulation by the controlled press But it was a demonstration that we have global governance in place now The question is, are we going to revolt against it?
	And what's the best way to revolt against it?
	Again, one-on-one at the local level.
	That's where all politics is, at the local level.
	And let me just say, a revolt against global governance is not going to happen with Trump in power.
	The very people who would revolt against this, because the Democrats love government.
	They love global governance.
	They want government to be as strong and as centralized as is possible.
	They even believe because it's been a lie that's been sold by the left my entire life.
	Karen and I were talking about this the other day.
	She grew up in New York and, you know, we were kids in the 60s.
	In elementary school. And it was just this constant thing.
	The UN was fairly new at the time.
	And it's like, oh, the UN, the path to peace.
	All of our wars have been about national rivalries.
	And, you know, the UN is going to be our path to peace.
	She lived in New York. She even wanted to work when she was a little elementary school kid for the UN. And then she realized what was going on with it.
	And way before she met me.
	But... Yeah, I mean, it's just, this is the lie that's out there.
	That that's going to be some kind of global peace if we can all just get together and beat our swords into plowshares.
	You better start sharpening your swords to defend yourself.
	In defense. But it's not going to happen with Trump.
	Trump is the great, what I was saying is that the left loves that stuff.
	The left believes all these lies about the UN being the great weapon of peace and all the rest of this stuff.
	They believe that if we centralize all control, that government is going to be this big, benevolent dictator to everybody we want, a nanny state, don't we?
	No, that's what the left believes.
	The right doesn't like any of that stuff.
	So what do they do for the right?
	Well, they invent this fictional character called Donald Trump, who puts himself out there as the anti-globalist, and he becomes the great pacifier.
	Not a pacifier of what people want, but he becomes a pacifier in their mouth because as long as he's there, hey, it's 4-D chess.
	It's just sugar water. Take the shot.
	Do whatever Donald Trump says.
	I know. I know.
	He said he's going to do X, and now he's doing the exact opposite of it, but it's just 4-D chess.
	Don't worry. He's not lying to you.
	He's lying to those people, those other people.
	He's lying to your enemies.
	He's deceiving them.
	He's not deceiving you.
	And he pacifies the people who should be leading a revolution.
	So it's not going to happen as long as he is there.
	So he said, not the Japanese guy, but another congressman out of the Philippines, Congressman Zia Adyong remarked about the legal safeguards surrounding pharmaceutical firms pushing COVID-19 vaccines.
	He said, there really is an agreement that indicates that they cannot be sued.
	That's something that we should worry about.
	Why would a pharmaceutical company insist on not being sued if there will be injuries or fatalities that may come after a result of that?
	Do they not believe in their product?
	Of course they don't. Bingo.
	That's it. That was the epiphany for me when I saw the 1986 act that Fauci did.
	I just want to stop and think about it.
	This is Fauci.
	This is not his first rodeo, folks.
	In 1986, and he got Ronald Reagan to help him with it.
	He put through the legal immunity for childhood vaccines.
	You know, he focused on the children.
	We talk about how reprehensible it is for these transgenders to focus on the kids.
	Fauci focused on the kids.
	He increased the number of vaccines up to, I think it's 72 or something.
	Six dozen vaccines that they got out there.
	And all of them, the pharmaceutical companies, have no liability.
	Fauci did that to our children.
	He's been doing that to our children for 40 years.
	That's what's really reprehensible.
	He focused on them to harm them for the longest time.
	Analyst Sally Clark disclosed disturbing figures regarding the correlation between falling birth rates and vaccine rollouts since the pandemic.
	She said the very big spike in deaths in 2021, which started in March of 2021, immediately consecutive with the vaccine rollout.
	Yeah, yeah.
	Who knew? You know, and when you go back and look at Fauci, I said the other day, I was anti-vax before anti-vax was cool, before COVID. But, you know, the spy who came in from the cold, I came in from the flu narrative, right? That's how I came into all this stuff.
	I could see the game they're running, and that was the game they ran in 2020.
	It was just the big flu narrative that they had been running.
	So, likewise, at the adverse event following immunization gathering, and this is in Malaysia.
	Now, Malaysia is all Muslim.
	And this is a Malaysian Muslim Consumers Association.
	And they set up a gathering.
	They called it a prayer to reject the IHR amendments out of the WHO and solidarity with vaccine-affected victims.
	We need to take a look at some of these things.
	This is the way we need to operate with this.
	I think one of the key things that we need to do in the United States to fight this, whether they ever get this thing in at the international level, as I said before, it was this Model State Health Emergency Powers Act legislation Model legislation for the states to enact, and all the states to some degree or the other enacted a large part of that.
	We need to identify those things, and we've got to work with state reps, and we've got to get a massive grassroots movement in every state to identify and to rip out the root of all of this stuff.
	At the local level.
	Congress isn't going to do a thing.
	Trump's not going to do a thing.
	Biden's not going to do anything.
	They love it. They're going to make it worse.
	We've got to stop it at the local level.
	And we stop it by ripping out this model state health emergency legislation that was put in in your state.
	That's how we stop this stuff.
	One doctor at the event, the Malaysian Muslim Consumers Association, sorrowfully acknowledged, he says, as a medical doctor, we are so ashamed of the mistake that we have made.
	Another person, well, this is Chris Cuomo.
	Well, we were given bad information about ivermectin.
	The real question is, why did they give me bad information?
	No, the real question is, why did you lie to people for money, Chris?
	That's what you did. And you're still lying to people about money.
	You have changed your position because you know the vast majority of people, you've got to depend on viewers now.
	You were paid money from CNN, which is getting money from government agencies and the corporate sponsors of global governance.
	They were the ones who were paying you before.
	Now you've got to pretend that you're telling the truth because you're getting funded by the consumers.
	That's what's going on with Tucker as well.
	He said, and of course he admitted, they say, I don't know that he really admitted that he was injured by the shots.
	We knew that he was, as I said before.
	But he walked it back at that time.
	He mocked people for taking ivermectin, told them not to take it, even though he was taking it at the time.
	He said, what matters is the entire medical community knew that ivermectin couldn't hurt you.
	They knew it. I know that they knew it, said Chris Cuomo.
	How do I know? Because now I'm doing nothing but talking to these clinicians who at the time were overwhelmed by COVID and they weren't saying anything.
	And you were overwhelmed by money.
	And you said nothing, Cuomo.
	Despite mounting evidence of this jab-linked deaths and injuries, and despite all this, the disgraced WHO leader Tedros is adamant that they're going to continue with this pandemic treaty.
	This is not a failure, he said.
	We will try everything, believing that anything is possible, and we will make this happen.
	Because the world still needs a pandemic treaty.
	He needs more power.
	He needs more money. He's going to continue to work on it.
	NBC. Calling it a death shot.
	And gaslighting people about the rise in heart health issues.
	Heart attacks. And young, healthy adults.
	NBC blames it on red meat.
	No? Couldn't possibly be that.
	We've been eating red meat for a very long time.
	Eating more of it than we do now, as a matter of fact.
	NBC Today ran a segment, this is from Wine Press, ran a segment about what they referred to as a mysterious rise in heart attacks in young healthy adults.
	This segment centered around 38-year-olds who had competed in triathlons for many years who suffered a surprise heart attack last October.
	Where was NBC for the last two years when all this stuff was happening?
	Sitting on the sidelines or claiming that it was all a conspiracy theory wasn't real.
	NBC's, now they're trying to misdirect people.
	And folks, again, you know, when you see the Republicans like Rand Paul talking about gain of function, he's trying to get you fearful again.
	And he's misdirecting you just like NBC is misdirecting you from the real problem.
	NBC's Ann Thompson asked the athlete if he had consumed a lot of red meat, quote-unquote.
	Wow. Is that it?
	If he had been drinking water or was he stressed out before the event, to which the athlete said no, he'd only drank very little in the days preceding.
	So, you know, why would you ask him that?
	Thompson also interviewed Dr.
	Deepak Bhatt at Mount Sinai Fuster Heart Hospital.
	He said we're seeing younger people come in like we've never used to seeing them before He blamed it on things such as obesity or drug abuse. He said perhaps a potential for what he called long smoldering inflammation Referring to plaque buildup in the arteries leading to the heart causing a blood clot The athlete is now reportedly gone vegan and dr. Bot says that he recommends reducing red meat consumption. That's right eats the bugs
	Eat see bugs from the gates at the end of the bit today's that's what it was The horn presses got it right. It was a bit right. They had set this thing up Today's Savannah Guthrie quipped, this is a great example, though, because if it happens to him, I mean, my goodness, the rest of us are in big trouble.
	Yeah, we don't run marathons and things like that.
	Well, you are in big trouble if you took the shots that you work for NBC. 61% of U.S. adults will have some type of cardiovascular disease by 2050.
	How do they know?
	Oh, because they're causing it.
	That's how they know. You know, we have, just like we've got vaccine-induced epidemic like autism, we've now got a Trump vaccine epidemic of heart disease.
	People of every age.
	COVID vaccines may have helped fuel a rise in excess deaths.
	This is interesting because this was the UK Telegraph and the Drudge Report, Leftist.
	Pick this up as well.
	See, like I said, the mainstream is gradually slow-walking the truth out to people.
	Researchers from the Netherlands analyzed data from 47 Western countries and discovered that there have been more than 3 million excess deaths since 2020.
	That's way, way, way, way underreported.
	With a trend continuing despite the rollout of vaccines and containment measures.
	No, because of, because of the vaccines and the containment measures.
	Wrong word there. Just to speak about what you said, they always engage in absolute denial until it becomes so monumentally obvious that they switch to a tactic of minimization.
	That's right. That's right.
	That's right. And then the people who see that they were lied to by Trump, right, they switch to cynicism.
	Well, everybody lies. It's okay.
	I still support him, right? The other guys are liars too, so we'll support a liar like Trump who pushed this stuff out.
	Cynicism. Cynicism.
	Folks, we've got to get over that.
	You know, it's not a cool thing. Cynicism was sold to us by the movies.
	Oh yeah, look at, you know, Snake Plissken.
	Yeah, he's cynical about everything.
	He doesn't take orders from anybody.
	No, you know, we need to start getting the Boy Scout attitude.
	Let's understand, let's care about what's right and what's wrong.
	And let's stand for that.
	Even if people laugh at us and call us Dudley Do-Right or something, okay?
	Let's not be ashamed of trying to do the right thing.
	Let's not be ashamed of standing for truth and for law and justice.
	You know, we become so cynical about, oh yeah, Superman, truth, justice, and the American way.
	Well, those were good things once upon a time.
	And those still are goals.
	I know, they've made a joke out of it.
	It's not a joke. The society that we're living in that rejects truth, justice, and the American way.
	That's the joke, folks.
	The joke's on us.
	They laughed at our values to get us to reject our values.
	They made them a joke so that we wouldn't follow what's true and right.
	Writing in the British Medical Journal Public Health, the authors out of Amsterdam said although COVID-19 vaccines were provided to guard civilians from suffering morbidity and mortality by the virus, suspected adverse events have been documented as well.
	Oh, really? Yeah, well, okay.
	Four years late, and they tell you a little bit of it, like Travis said, minimizing it.
	Both medical professionals and citizens have reported serious injuries and deaths following vaccination to various official databases in the Western world.
	They have to admit it, but then they'll say, it's rare.
	It's rare. That kind of minimization.
	They added, during the pandemic, it was emphasized by, now this is an important statement.
	Listen to this. During the pandemic, it was emphasized by the media on a daily basis that every COVID-19 death mattered and that every life deserved protection.
	Now, they were saying you had to do that through the containment measures and through the vaccines, but those are the things that are killing people.
	And these people in the study said the same morale should apply here.
	Every life matters.
	You've got to do it. We were told by people like Al Mohler and others, oh, you do it for your neighbor.
	Just think how bad you would feel if they got COVID because of you.
	So you get the vaccine so that you can't spread it and all this other kind of stuff.
	Verbatim repeating what Yale had put out there as a propaganda test.
	Every life matters.
	Yeah, every life does matter.
	Except when they're the ones killing people, then none of these lives matter.
	And we shouldn't even look at this.
	Shouldn't even talk about it.
	Certainly shouldn't write anything angry to Dr.
	Fauci. Because Mr.
	Fauci is going to whine and complain about it and stick the FBI on you.
	I really don't care.
	FBI is nothing but a bunch of liars themselves.
	They warned that side effects linked to the COVID vaccine have included stroke, acute coronary syndrome, brain hemorrhages, cardiovascular diseases, coagulation, hemorrhages, gastrointestinal events, and blood clotting.
	So, the truth is beginning to come out.
	So what will they do? They will take us to war.
	Gerald Slenty is right about that.
	Absolutely right about that. By the way, Trends Journal.
	TrendsJournal.com. Use the code KNIGHT. You can save 10% off of that.
	Gerald Slenty, he said that for every year.
	He said when people lose everything, they lose it.
	And when these people are discovered, what they're doing to us, they're going to take us to war.
	And that's what we're going to talk about when we come back.
	On Rumble, Plasma Stream, thank you for the tip, says David, you should get Travis to get you on DLive.
	And Kik, too. Well, we are on DLive.
	Yes, we are. Yeah.
	They demonetized us on DLive.
	I think monetization is back on DLive.
	It's just one of those things, since they can take it away at any moment, it's not really viable for us to push it as any sort of platform.
	Well, we've never gotten a penny from it.
	I don't know. If people are sending us anything on DLive, we've never gotten a penny out of that.
	You know, it was, what was the other one?
	Trovo, right? Was it Trovo?
	Yeah, Trovo kicked us off entirely.
	After January the 6th, you had the establishment press said, look at this.
	You had these insurrectionists going through, peacefully walking through the Capitol and streaming it.
	And so we have to, and they made money off of it.
	So, both Trovo and DLive stopped the monetization, and Trovo kicked anybody that was political off.
	So, we got kicked off at that point in time.
	That was at the very beginning of the program.
	On Rumble, Owen61 writes, Filthy Little Elf was my favorite Cyndi Lauper tribute act of 04.
	Yeah, that's right.
	On Rumble, Sprumford, thank you for the tip.
	He says, Filthy Little Elf is now my new name for Tony Fauci.
	God bless you, dude.
	Thank you. Michelle Obama, thank you for the tip.
	Yes, I agree wholeheartedly.
	That is the essence of truth.
	Fauci is a lying murderer.
	Jason Barker, Trump's defenders say he was fooled.
	Well, I don't want a fool in the light.
	It's unfortunate we always get a fool there.
	Yeah, that's right. How is that?
	I've always said that. Oh, he didn't know what was going on.
	He was completely owned by the deep state.
	They owned this guy.
	It's like, how is that a defense of what he did?
	I don't understand. I don't understand anything about these MAGA people.
	And, you know, quite frankly, I think they're more dangerous.
	They're every bit as dangerous.
	I won't say more dangerous. They're every bit as dangerous as Trump.
	Because they follow him.
	They empower him. They send him money.
	What is their problem?
	Thank you, Jason. I appreciate that.
	Of course, Jason has Nights of the Storm, Foxhole Report.
	He does Nights of the Storm with Angry Tiger, who also has the Snake and Tiger Financial Report.
	And you can see not only their programs and where they are, but they did a nice thing at their website, The Nights of the Storm, and they've got...
	Schedule a listing there.
	Not only their stuff and Guard stuff, but a whole bunch of people out there, alternative media, who will tell you the truth because they're not getting paid tens of millions of dollars to lie to you.
	You know, and if people like Chris Cuomo and Tucker Carlson and Alex Jones will lie to you for tens of millions of dollars, what will people like Albert Borla and others do for tens of billions of dollars?
	That's the question you should ask yourself.
	Well, they'll kill you, we know. On Rockfin, Heron H. said, talked to a woman last week and found a like-minded friend.
	She said a seven-year-old local girl got the jab and died three days later from bleeding from the mouth.
	No autopsy done.
	It's just the most amazing thing, you know?
	We always used to look at this stuff.
	And we'd talk about how, yeah, they're going to declare an emergency.
	They're going to lock everything down through FEMA and everything.
	It's like, yeah... You didn't see that within this plan?
	Now this is running out.
	Amazing. On Rumble, Duke fan 7-11.
	David Knight looks so familiar.
	Used to be in the Triangle area in North Carolina.
	That's where I live. So I believe I saw him on TV before.
	I don't know. Well, I wasn't on TV. Actually, I was on only once.
	And that was... I had a debate when I ran in 1996.
	But that was in Charlotte.
	And that was the... That's where I ran for Congress.
	You know, you can... You don't have to run in the district that you live in for Congress.
	Did you know that? Of course, it didn't really matter because I wasn't going to win anyway.
	But I did participate in the debate.
	And just this last couple of weeks, for the first time, I didn't even know that the person I ran against, Virginia Fox, was still in Congress.
	She still is. And still doing things that I would oppose.
	But... It was interesting to see that she was still there.
	She would not go to the debate, as a matter of fact.
	It was a strong Republican district and in 1994, you know, they had Gingrich's contract with America, you know, 10 points and all that kind of stuff.
	And it was, you know, Clinton had been elected in 92.
	They had a lot of remorse.
	A lot of people did about that.
	And so, you know, they had a very successful election in 1994 and she got in in 1994 and she would not debate Anybody in 96.
	She was leading the Democrat by quite a bit.
	And so we had a debate with me and the Democrat.
	And this woman from the Natural Law Party, which was run by the, what was that?
	They were into transcendental meditation.
	They had a place up in the mountains of North Carolina.
	And they were flying swamis.
	I don't know why they got involved in politics.
	But they got the party on the ballot, and they had the better name because everybody thought libertarians were just liberals.
	And actually, that's kind of what has happened to the party now.
	But not at that time we weren't.
	So they thought that we were extreme liberals or something.
	And, you know, liberal was what people were called who supported liberty until the progressive socialists stole the title.
	Anyway, they had the Natural Law Party, which I thought was a...
	A good title. She had absolutely no idea about what was going on.
	The first question was, what would you do about vouchers?
	And of course, that's about education vouchers.
	And she's, what?
	I don't know what you're talking about.
	And the Democrat was sitting next to me, and he kind of had this audible groan.
	It's like, oh, what have I gotten into?
	Because he's debating these two third party candidates.
	I think he got less than 20% of the vote.
	It was such a Republican district.
	And then we have this statement from Fauci, where he talked about how the podcasters and the conspiracy theorists are actually the ones who are killing people.
	Did you know that? See, it's not Fauci.
	Fauci didn't kill people with the mass of lockdowns, the vaccines.
	He didn't kill people.
	People like me killed people.
	Here's Fauci attacking podcasters and conspiracy theorists.
	Actually, we're conspiracy investigators investigating your conspiracy, Fauci.
	Sir, and do you think the American public should listen to America's brightest and best doctors and scientists or instead listen to podcasters, conspiracy theorists, and unhinged Facebook memes?
	No, I was listening to people who you just described...
	Is going to do nothing but harm people because they will deprive themselves of life-saving interventions, which has happened.
	And, you know, some have done studies.
	Peter Hotez has done an analysis of this and shows that in people who refuse to get vaccinated for any variety of reasons, probably responsible for an additional two to three hundred thousand deaths.
	Oh, there you go. Okay.
	So, if you listen to somebody like me, you'll be deprived of ivermectin.
	I never stopped anybody from getting ivermectin.
	It was Fauci who stopped you from trying life-saving things.
	It's just amazing.
	You know, all of his measures had absolutely no basis in science.
	They didn't want to explain any of this stuff.
	All of his numbers are baseless.
	And, you know, really, as I said before, what was even more despicable, in a sense, you know, COVID lies and conspiracy that came out was just the logical conclusion of what he'd been doing his entire life for 40 years.
	You know, first targeting children, creating an autism epidemic, now creating an epidemic of heart disease, of turbo cancer, and all the rest of these things.
	And it was both the Democrats and the Republicans.
	And it was even Ronald Reagan who was involved in it.
	But of course, they hate us with a passion, don't they?
	When the chips are down, these civilized people, they'll eat each other.
	You are the unvaccinated.
	You are the problem.
	It is the unvaccinated who are the problem.
	Period. End of story.
	The only people that you can blame.
	The only people you can blame. This isn't shaming.
	This is the truth. Maybe they should be shamed by the unvaccinated.
	It's time to start blaming the unvaccinated folks, not the regular folks.
	Anyone you came into contact with will blame you, as will the rest of us who have done the right thing by getting vaccinated.
	Because, frankly, we know that we can't trust the unvaccinated.
	I think it's time to get our moral house in order, Anderson.
	It's the unvaccinated who are the threat.
	All of us vaccinated folks are going to start wearing masks to protect the unvaccinated folks.
	It's called a Christian value.
	You're basically punishing the vaccinated for the sins of the unvaccinated.
	People are not behaving honorably.
	The unvaccinated are basically saying, well, it's open season for me.
	I can do whatever I want as well.
	The unvaccinated are basically beating their breasts, running around the country saying, we don't care.
	We're living free and so forth.
	We've been patient. But our patience is wearing thin.
	Unvaccinated, a group that includes children and people acting like children.
	And the rest of us are starting to get pissed off.
	The vaccinated feel the unvaccinated are making me upset or angry.
	This is not about freedom or personal choice.
	Well, my freedom is being kind of disturbed here.
	No, screw your freedom.
	The other day, Howard Stern weighed in with a much different approach.
	Take a look. When are we going to stop putting up with the idiots in this country and just say, you know, it's mandatory to get vaccinated.
	Their freedom. But you're treading on our freedom and you're making other people sick and really you're killing other people.
	The anti-vaxxers, they seem to have a thing for death and home remedies.
	The anti-maskers turned anti-vaxxers are not just putting their own lives at risk.
	If that was the issue, we could just say that we can watch them compete to win places show in the Darwin Awards.
	We have to start doing things for the greater good of society and not for idiots who think that they can do their own research.
	And don't get me started on the lunatics who won't take any of the COVID vaccines.
	Life is too short to be an ass.
	Life is way too short to be ignorant of the promise of something that is helping people worldwide.
	Maybe you're doing it because you're disconnected or disorganized.
	Maybe you have some sympathetic psychological reasons.
	But maybe you're just being antisocial.
	Oh, you can't shame them.
	You can't call them stupid.
	You can't call them silly. Yes, they are.
	Those who are not vaccinated will end up paying the price.
	The unvaccinated should be taxed.
	They should pay more for health care.
	We need to start looking at the choice to remain unvaccinated the same as we look at driving while intoxicated.
	We're going to see, and I've said, almost two types of America.
	Dr. Fauci said that if hospitals get any more overcrowded, they're going to have to make some very tough choices about who gets an ICU. That choice doesn't seem so tough to me.
	Vaccinated person having a heart attack?
	Yes, come right on in. We'll take care of you.
	Unvaccinated guy who gobbled horse goo?
	Rest in peace, Wheezy.
	Pointing back to the unvaccinated who are really creating a problem in this country, every death that we are seeing from COVID could have been prevented.
	Literally, the only people dying are the unvaccinated.
	And for those of you spreading misinformation, shame on you.
	Shame on you. I don't know how some of you sleep at night.
	Yeah, how do they sleep at night?
	That's what I would like to know.
	Well, let's talk about something else that they've been pushing on us, these honest, trustworthy people.
	Happy Pride Month, Elmo loves you.
	Elmo and Sesame Street, PBS, celebrate, and of course PBS said, the most dangerous thing you could do in 2020 was to go to church, right?
	Shut that down. Maybe the most dangerous thing that you could do for their demonic sponsors is to go to church.
	Nevertheless, Elmo and Sesame Street celebrate Pride Month and target two-year-olds.
	Well, you know, there is...
	Why do we even allow them to do that?
	There's a very good video that I saw that shows why kids are not mature enough to make up their mind about gender.
	Here's an example.
	As we all know, if you've been a parent, you know this.
	Just watch this....have $10,000 cash for...
	Wait a minute....this...
	...to...
	Out of the box, Oreo cookies.
	Are you sure?
	That's $10 cash.
	Do you want the Oreo cookies?
	Are you sure? Okay, go ahead.
	Yeah, exactly.
	And we've all had that experience.
	I didn't do it versus Oreo cookies.
	I did it versus a bunch of $1 bills in a higher denomination.
	Which would you rather have? It always works for the kids, right?
	They don't have the maturity to make these kinds of decisions, and we know that.
	And we know that these people are coming for our kids, whether it is Sesame Street and Elmo, or it's these guys.
	Remember these guys from a couple of years ago?
	As we celebrate pride on the progress we've made over these past years, there's still work to be done.
	So to those of you out there who are still working against equal rights, we have a message for you.
	You think we're sinful?
	You fight against our rights.
	You say we all lead lives you can't respect.
	But you're just frightened.
	You think that we'll corrupt your kids if our agenda goes unchecked.
	Funny. Just this once.
	You're correct. We'll convert your children.
	Happens bit by bit.
	Quietly and subtly.
	And you will barely notice it.
	You can keep them from disco.
	Warn about San Francisco.
	Make them wear pleated pants.
	We don't care.
	We'll convert your children.
	We'll make them tolerant and fair.
	Yeah, right, right.
	Remember that? That was the San Francisco gay choir.
	Right in your face.
	And we'll do it bit by bit, right?
	You can keep them away from disco.
	But are you going to keep them away from Disney?
	Are you going to keep them away from Elmo?
	Because they're going to come after them when they're vulnerable little kids.
	And they're going to offer this stuff to them.
	Immediate gratification, just like Oreos.
	Blue's Clues, also.
	It's a reboot.
	They're featuring drag queen sing-alongs at Blue's Clues.
	The Cartoon Network has promoted abortion and Z's their pronouns.
	Disney introduced 14-year-old as the first bisexual lead character in Owl House.
	Also, Arthur had a gay wedding and Rugrats reboot features a lesbian single mom.
	The Scooby-Doo animated film had Velma officially coming out as lesbian.
	PBS kids show Odd Squad featured a same-sex wedding.
	And Blues Clues reboot featured drag queens sing-along and a trans beaver who had top scars.
	I don't know if it's the beavers.
	Is it on the top? I thought it was on the belly.
	I don't know. Well, we know what it is really about.
	Sesame Street has a target audience of two to three-year-olds.
	And they're pushing this.
	The two to three-year-olds.
	Every day. Elmo.
	Coming in. Happy Pride.
	Elmo loves you.
	Indoctrination station baby and toddler YouTuber posts video celebrating Pride Month.
	This is a YouTube creator named Ms.
	Rachel. Has 10 million subscribers.
	Isn't that amazing? You know, if you really want to succeed, what do you do?
	You make a deal with the devil.
	You do this, you get 10 million subscribers.
	Or you do Julie Green and you tell people ridiculous prophecies and say, Thus saith the Lord, and you wind up getting 125,000, 150,000 views on every one of your Rumble videos.
	It's amazing. It's right there.
	You think we don't know?
	Everybody knows that.
	Everybody knows. Bow down and worship me, and this whole world is your oyster.
	You see it all the time from people who are rock stars talking about how they made a deal with Satan.
	These people have made a deal with Satan, whether or not they had some kind of an occultic experience or whatever.
	That is the deal that they've made.
	They'll push lies, they'll push perversion, and they will then get paid for it.
	Ms. Rachel's typical content includes lessons on things like learning how to read...
	Rhymes for babies, verbal skills, and learning colors and numbers.
	All of her videos are geared towards ages, kids who are five years old and younger, with some of her content specifically for babies.
	She is extremely popular.
	A YouTuber makes content for babies and toddlers.
	She posted a video celebrating Pride Month.
	And so that was Matt Walsh who found that.
	So this is a message to conservative parents.
	She doesn't want your business.
	You should respond accordingly.
	You should also understand that the hand that rocks the cradle rules the world.
	And I look at this stuff and it really strikes home.
	Because we're just visiting with some very old friends of ours from North Carolina.
	And we're going back and we're looking at all of these kids that grew up with my sons and how many of them, typically almost all of them female, have gone LGBT. It truly is amazing.
	These are kids coming from strong Christian families.
	Many of them, most of them, homeschooled.
	What happened to them?
	Well, college happened to them.
	And you can look at...
	The influence that is there, and whether or not you inoculate the kids against peer pressure, wanting to be accepted, things like that, it truly is tragic to see this type of thing.
	Joe Biden is addressing transgender children for his pride proclamation.
	He is going after the kids as well.
	You know, one person has had enough of this, as a matter of fact.
	In California, there's a progressive Democrat who says, I've had it with this pedophilia.
	Thank you, Mr. President and members.
	I'd like to say, as a progressive, proud member of this body for the last 12 years, I'm done.
	I'm done with us protecting people who would buy and abuse our children.
	I'm done. I don't want to send more black and brown men to prison.
	I don't want more people in prison, but I don't want people buying girls.
	I don't want people buying little girls anymore.
	And I'm tired of saying it's okay and that we have to protect the men who do it.
	As a mental health professional and as a social worker, I can tell you I've spent my entire career working with people who have been wounded I'm not going to say beyond repair, but they have been wounded to their core by the abuse that's been heaped on them, oftentimes by those that they love and look to protect them.
	And if their parents won't do it, then by God we should.
	Again, I am not arguing that we open the gates to flood our prisons with people, but I am arguing that we have a moral responsibility to say enough.
	Enough! We have given away enough on this area and we've got to move back into the center or we all look like fools and laughingstocks.
	And what do we stand for?
	I asked all of you to watch the documentary that Senator Grove was in, Senator from Kern County who was just in, that talked about this very place in Sacramento where girls are being bought and sold.
	Men are being given a little slap in the hand for a couple days, and then they're back out again, and they do the same thing.
	They get caught over and over and over again, and somehow that's okay.
	It's not okay. It is not okay anymore, and no more am I watching.
	Like I said, I'm leaving, but the rest of you who are going to be here for a while, let's get our stuff together and really start focusing on some of the important things.
	We talk about learning and we talk about being safe.
	This is like at the core of it.
	And a lot of these kids can be throwaway kids.
	They're poor kids. They're kids of color.
	But they shouldn't have to live a life determined by what happens to them by others at a very young age and by having the Democratic Party of California say it's okay.
	It's not okay. And I'm not doing it anymore, and I hope none of you do, too.
	We have to be able to draw a line, and for me, I'm drawing a line.
	I urge your aye vote.
	Yeah, that's right. Where are you going to draw the line?
	When are you going to have the integrity to stand up, maybe even to your own tribe?
	And say, no, this isn't right.
	Now, what she was talking about, there was a bill about solicitation of a minor, which is the logical conclusion of this pedophile agenda where we allow them to sexualize kids who are babies under five years old and all the rest of the stuff.
	How in the world do you let some quote-unquote entertainment organization like Disney or like PBS come into your home And sexualize your children.
	I'm just an old guy from the middle of the 20th century, and I remember when Red Skelton used to come on at the end of his show, and he would say, Thank you very much for inviting me into your home.
	You know, I really respect that.
	I know I'm in your living room and all this other kind of stuff.
	He had that awareness.
	You know what? These people know that they're in your baby's crib.
	They know that they're in your child's mind.
	And it truly is demonic.
	When are we going to say we've had enough?
	When are we going to stop letting them shame us for the right kind of values?
	When are we going to stand up to this evil and say, never again?
	Never again. Not going to tolerate any of this stuff.
	There is no compromise that we can make with this.
	It has to be categorically opposed.
	We're going to take a break and we're going to be joined by our guest, Who is a research fellow emeritus at the Hoover Institute.
	And we're going to talk about his new book, A Republic, If We Can Teach It, Fixing America's Civic Education Crisis.
	Yes, one of many crises that we have, but we've got to look at each one of these.
	We're not going to win... The culture war without a culture, we're not going to win.
	The political wars without people understanding what our real values are and understanding what the history is.
	So we're going to take a quick break, and we'll be right back with our guest, David Davenport.
	Stay with us. Unlike most revolutions where the people rise against a real economic oppression, in our case here in Boston, we are fighting for purely an abstract principle.
	Hear, hear, hear! It is, however, not nearly so abstract as a young gentleman supposes.
	The issue involved here is one of monopoly.
	Today the British government will monopolize the sale of tea in our country.
	Tomorrow it will be something else.
	I don't know.
	Music
	You're listening to The David Knight Show.
	All right, welcome back, and joining us now is David Davenport.
	As I said before, he's a research fellow emeritus at the Hoover Institute.
	He's out in California. As he told me, this is breakfast time there for him, so it's pretty early there.
	He specializes in constitutional federalism, civic education, modern American conservatism, and international law.
	During his career at Hoover, He also served in administrative capacities as counselor to the director and the inaugural director of Hoover's Washington, D.C. program.
	Former president of Pepperdine University.
	And under his leadership there at Pepperdine, the university experienced significant growth in quality and reputation.
	He is a co-author of a new book, A Republic If We Can Teach It, Fixing America's Civic Education Crisis.
	His co-author is Jeffrey Sikinga, if I pronounce that correctly.
	If I'm not, you can correct me, David.
	Thank you for coming on.
	And, of course, when we look at what is happening on the college campuses, we've got some real problems.
	And I guess the question is, you know, where do we start?
	And I think you would start to direct us towards some of the civics stuff.
	Tell us a little bit about that, and welcome.
	Thank you for coming on. Yes, good to be with you.
	Our sense in writing this book is that if civic education, the poor state of civic education, didn't cause some of our current problems, they could at least be a solution.
	And I think most Americans are not aware of just how poorly students are being taught civic education.
	There's very little taught, if any, these days, unlike in perhaps your and my day, in the elementary and middle schools.
	In high school, there's generally just a single, one semester course, which is kind of too little, too late.
	As you point out, on college campuses, there's little to no history in civic education.
	So we're training kids to work on computers to do technology and with STEM and so forth.
	We're not teaching them how to run the country or even how to be good citizens.
	That's right. Or even convey some values.
	While we went to break, and of course you couldn't hear the program, but I was playing a little bit about the Boston Tea Party, and it came from a series that was produced that we watched when I was in school.
	It was actually produced by CBS. And it was like, you are there.
	Maybe you remember this. And they would reenact some kind of a historical thing.
	they would talk to the camera like they were the guys in the office, you know, so they broke the third barrier there, I think they call it, and they talk to the audience and then they pull back and you watch this little vignette there what they're doing. And it was a kind of values, civics values, that today would get you canceled if you were to teach these types of things.
	And that's what they were doing. And it was actually being done by CBS. I think some of them were introduced by Walter Cronkite, of all people.
	And so that's how far things have changed in my lifetime.
	But let me ask you this.
	You know, when we talk to young people, it's very difficult to get them to even care about anything.
	They don't believe that there is any such thing as truth.
	I've got a truth, you've got a truth, or, you know, their only absolute truth is that there is no truth.
	And so it's hard to get them to engage and just kind of drop out.
	It's like, well, I don't care. And so in that kind of an environment, in an environment where they're actively pushing Marxism and a lot of these different, you know, I don't really call it woke, but I've interviewed Xi Van Fleet.
	I don't know if you're familiar with her. But she talked about, she said, we saw this stuff when I was growing up in China.
	You know, this is nothing that is unique to America.
	These are just Marxist tactics to capture the youth.
	How do we get started in all of this?
	What's the starting place? You know, kids love stories.
	And part of the problem is that we're not starting out in the very young elementary years telling kids the stories of America.
	And that's where Jeff and I would start.
	In fact, Ronald Reagan, in his farewell address, said that his big concern is that we were not passing along values to the next generation and that we needed what Reagan called informed patriots, which is exactly what Jeff and I believe in.
	And our sense is, Reagan said, it starts at the family dinner table.
	And so we don't need to rely just on schools to convey America's story and civic education.
	So families at the dinner table can talk about America.
	There are holidays, obviously, that have stories behind them.
	Parents can share, why are we celebrating that holiday?
	Why are we singing that particular song?
	Why do we do a Pledge of Allegiance?
	In the summertime, when families go on vacation, they can visit historic sites and talk about the stories of America.
	As you said, as kids, you watched the TV program.
	I read the We Were There books.
	You went right to the source.
	That's great. I forget whether it was We Were There or you were there at the Boston TV. You were there at the Constitutional Convention.
	And those were just stories that I loved as a kid.
	Oh, yeah. And we had Disney at the time wasn't doing transgender, you know, baby stuff.
	But Disney was doing things like, you know, Johnny Tremaine and things like that.
	And, you know, he actually did things about the American Revolution and the principles that America was founded on.
	But, you know, that stuff is still out there.
	If you want to get that stuff for your kids, you know, that resource is still there.
	It's not being made by Hollywood anymore.
	But, you know, you can still find those types of things.
	Yeah. Absolutely. So that's where we would start, and we think it's a big mistake not to be doing that in the elementary and middle school years, because as you say, then it just becomes one more boring high school class by the time students are introduced to the story of America.
	So we think there's a great opportunity there for families as well as for schools to begin telling America's story and giving kids a chance to get excited and interested in That's right.
	Yeah, I agree with that.
	I think the primary teachers of kids are and should be the parents if they spend the time with them.
	Whether you're talking about school or you're talking about church, I mean, you've got to instill those spiritual or civic values as a family, especially because wherever they go, they're going to get some counter-programming to that.
	So, you know, other than parents, who are the best players that can kind of fix this?
	What do you think? Well, as we look at the schools, I personally look first at state legislators and state schools of education because those are the ones that can tell schools you need to be teaching X amount of civic education and American history, I will add, throughout the grades.
	And what Jeff and I think is the best approach is what we call the layer cake approach, which is you start with age-appropriate civic education and history material in kindergarten, and each year you add something to the layer cake that is age-appropriate so that by the time kids get to high school and they get to the harder subjects of American history and government and civics, They know the vocabulary.
	They know the stories.
	They have some background with which to work with that.
	So we've got to go back to requiring civics and history to be taught from kindergarten, building the layer cake right on up through high school, and even college.
	Yeah. Oh, I agree. And, you know, I think what we basically do is look at what they're doing with the LGBT agenda.
	Yeah. And then we just take that over to civics, because they start in kindergarten, they start with the babies on TV, and they actually, you know, add it as this, maybe you could say, age-inappropriate material, but they gradually add it as layers all the way through, and so it's this constant reinforcement, constantly coming back, and I think that's really the way that values are always taught, whether they're values that are good or values that are bad, is that that layer-cake approach is absolutely true.
	Now, of course, there's been some efforts to try to change some of the universities, like in Florida, for example, and they've been screaming bloody murder about that.
	How do we, you know, DeSantis has done that.
	Are there any other places where people are even trying to do anything to change these teacher seminaries, I guess we could call them, you know, where they're teaching the Well, you've put your finger on a really big problem.
	I'm trying to be retired.
	If I were going to write another book, I think the next project I would undertake is that I think schools of education are a big part of the problem.
	That is to say, teachers need the right training to be able to teach civics and history, and frankly, we do a very poor job of that.
	Schools of education...
	Even at their best, have become how to teach and nothing about what to teach.
	So we have kids going into the classroom from colleges to be teachers, but they themselves don't have the background in history and in civics.
	And in fact, if you look at state certification standards for history and civics, they're among the lowest in the country.
	You have to have far more training to teach science or math or what people think of as the hard subjects.
	But we just have kids going into teaching who haven't had that background.
	My co-author Jeff likes to say, you can call a civics or history teacher anything, but the main thing you call them is coach.
	You know, they're invited to coach the team and then, oh, by the way, we need you to teach the civics class.
	So I think the schools of education clearly are part of the problem and we need to be requiring much more content at that level, not just how to teach.
	Oh, yeah, absolutely. It is kind of interesting because, you know, they can teach the wrong thing, or what they can do is just completely ignore it.
	And as we see them taking down statues of historical figures that they know nothing about their lives or their contributions, what we see, I think, is really kind of a bull-faced move to eradicate history, right?
	That is a key part of CRT and of Marxism in general, is to eradicate history.
	It's one of the things that Mao did.
	And so you can eradicate history by just not telling people about it.
	Or if somebody knows about it, they can be informed to contradict it.
	I think that's the key thing is that, first of all, they just ignore it.
	And then secondly, you've got a lot of these teachers who have been radicalized in school to actively oppose it.
	And so I think, again, you know, if people are concerned about this, You know, looking at your book, a Republican, if we can teach it, how do we fix this type of thing?
	And as you point out, it begins with parents teaching their own kids, but then it also begins with, I think, parents getting together and saying, you know, what is happening at the school board level or at the state department level?
	And gradually we come down, though, and we get to this situation where because of what you're talking about there with the teachers being educated, if they've got an agenda that It really doesn't matter if the particular teacher's got an agenda.
	It doesn't make too much difference if you get the school board on your side or if you've got the governor on your side.
	If that teacher in the classroom, we had, again, on a variety of subjects, They would do TikTok videos and say, well, I don't care what they tell me to teach.
	This is what I'm going to teach in my class.
	You know, what do we do about that thing other than just trying to have school choice or homeschooling or things like that?
	Is there any other alternative for that type of thing?
	As somebody who's been a university president, how do you handle that type of thing in the classroom?
	Frankly, it was a little bit easier in the day when I was college president.
	We didn't have all of these...
	I mean, liberalism has been sweeping across the academic world for a long time, but some of these isms that you have pointed out are a little newer than my time of leadership.
	Jeff Sikiga is the director of the Ashbrook Center in Ohio, and they do work on civic education.
	And they have...
	David, what I call a secret sauce for teaching civics in history.
	And that is, they train teachers to teach history and civics using primary documents.
	Part of the problem is that teachers are given these textbooks to use, which are at the best boring, frankly, and at their worst, as you say, also biased, being biased.
	Howard Zinn's People's History in the United States, that's one of the most widely used texts in the country, is just anti-American.
	I mean, it's not American history, it's anti-American history.
	So, what they do at the Ashbrook Center is they train teachers, thousands of teachers, to use primary documents.
	And this is, of course, the Constitution, the Bill of Rights.
	The Declaration of Independence.
	But it's more than that.
	If we're going back, say, to study the Great Depression, then we read some speeches by Franklin Roosevelt.
	We read some speeches by Herbert Hoover.
	And we let students draw their own conclusions.
	We take students back in time.
	My line is that if you're going to travel back and study history, you need to check your 21st century glasses at TSA because...
	History needs to be understood in its own time and its own context.
	So we read speeches by Hoover.
	We read speeches by Roosevelt.
	We look at laws that were passed in the first hundred days of the New Deal, and we let students draw their own conclusions.
	Well, there's an excitement about that.
	Replaying those debates of the 1930s or the 1870s.
	And students find that much more interesting and exciting, and the studies show that they learn a lot more than by reading a boring paragraph in a textbook.
	So that's one approach that I think could be really effective, is really effective.
	Boy, I really, I can't say enough about that, how much I agree with you on that.
	You know, when I was in school, it was all textbooks.
	And outside of these stories that we already talked about, I really hated history.
	I learned to love history when I went back to primary sources, when I went back to original documents, when I went back to what people who lived there were actually doing.
	You know, I read de Tocqueville.
	I read Jefferson.
	I read letters and things that were, you know, there's a lot of compilations of individual letters that were written, not even just the big political speeches, but you know, you go back and you look at the diary of Mary Chestnut during the Civil War, whatever, talking about what she saw. People were very literate at that time, and they wrote amazing observations, even going back to England, you know, the diary of Samuel Pepys.
	This is a guy that lived through the London Fire and everything.
	He was a bureaucrat, and he wrote his stuff in code, and he thought it'd never be decoded, but somebody decoded it, and he had a lot of private stuff, and he probably didn't want anybody to read it.
	But I remember hearing that as an audiobook, and Ken Brenna was reading it, and it was fascinating.
	It really was, and it really got me interested in history, getting back to those original primary documents.
	And I'll just say this, you know, when you look at both of these things, going back to original primary documents, and we look at the stories, as you pointed out, I think that was the key to success for Ken Burns, for example.
	You know, the first thing they hit a home run with was the Civil War.
	Now I have some disagreements with him about how he perceived the Civil War, but it was fascinating.
	Why was it fascinating? Even though they had no moving pictures, and even though they did the now famous Ken Burns effect, where they would just slowly zoom in or pan across a still picture, he had actors who were reading from the documents that people were writing.
	Common people, leaders, politicians, people who were observing what was going on.
	And he continued that formulation with other documentaries that he did.
	But that's the key thing.
	It's the original documents.
	That was really his script for a lot of that.
	Right. And, you know, Ashbrook has done one better.
	It has now been publishing books of primary documents that correspond to the different historical periods that teachers need to teach.
	Wow. So they've collected those documents and made them available in You mentioned Ashbrook.
	That's Jeffrey Sikenga, the professor of political science and co-author.
	He is also co-director of the Ashbrook Scholar Program at Ashland University.
	Is that where people would find some of these books that you just mentioned with Ashbrook?
	Yes. Actually, they have a separate website that is a set of resources that millions of teachers use.
	It's called teachingamericanhistory.org.
	And if any of your listeners want to go to teachingamericanhistory.org, they will find a plethora of documents and paintings and, as you say, videos and things that will help them teach from primary documents.
	Great source. That's fascinating.
	Well, I'm glad that that's there.
	I think those types of things are very important.
	It really does bring things home.
	I remember when we were studying history, you know, it's just memorizing dates and events, and it was so incredibly boring.
	That's a very low bar for statistics and history.
	Very low. That's right.
	You know, one way we put it in our book, David, is in elementary school, you do have to teach the what.
	You have to have some basis of the what, and stories are a great way to begin at that level.
	By middle school, they should be teaching and asking about the how.
	How do things piece together and work together?
	But by high school, we should be thinking about the why.
	Why America?
	Why freedom? Why does the Constitution matter?
	Why checks and balances?
	And to get students to really understand and even love America, they need to get to those why questions.
	Well, the textbooks, as you say, they're either too boring or they've got the wrong why and not one that we want to be sharing with our kids.
	So primary documents, great way to go teaching the What?
	Moving up to the how and then ultimately the why fly out of America and that really does reflect kind of the classical Curriculum for homeschoolers or anybody who wants to use it the trip You know they began in with grammar school You know just teaching the the facts and getting in the basic knowledge there, then gradually moving into into Rhetoric and critical thought and debate all these other things the things logic and all the rest of the stuff that should be the progression
	That's there and and yet we don't see that and I think it's one of the reasons that progression not being there I think is one of the reasons why People might start out pretty well and in our government schools now, but then they quickly get bored to death and And and they start digressing in terms of their academic interest I know that happened to me, and it was much worse now the way that it is there.
	So how do we, you know, again, we're talking about doing these things to get started, and of course, underlying all of this is the politics of it all.
	Right. So how do we get around that?
	Because it's a very, very...
	I mean, education has become so politicized like everything else, hasn't it?
	If I had the answer to that, I should be in higher office, not sitting at a beach town in California.
	Well, I'd vote for you. My own view is that we need to go back to ideas of federalism.
	And that is that the different branches that can tackle this problem need to kind of stay in their own lane, if you will.
	And so, in my mind, the state legislatures should be about requiring certain amounts of history and civic education.
	They should be setting the standards.
	These are the things students should study.
	These are how many hours of civics and history that need to be in the school.
	That's what they need to be doing primarily.
	I think by and large, we need to let teachers teach.
	And, of course, there will be some bad teachers.
	There will be some great teachers.
	We need to give teachers better training, I think, would be the key to turning that around.
	And so, again, back to the Ashbrook Center, but they're not the only ones who do this.
	There are others who offer teachers the opportunity to learn in more exciting ways, and therefore teach in more exciting ways.
	Mm-hmm. So I think working on teacher education is definitely part of the solution.
	I think ultimately we have to start allowing kids who are well-educated to form their own conclusions.
	I'm really very much against indoctrination, even indoctrinating with my ideas, which of course I think are the best ideas at all.
	But I don't think a good education is me transferring my values to students.
	I think it's me getting my students to think and to look at quality material and reach their own conclusions.
	But it's going to be a hard fight because, as you say, once the schools have become political battlegrounds, which they are today, by and large, Then it's very hard for teachers to have the freedom and independence to teach in that way.
	I agree with you. I've said for a while, you know, I don't know who said this originally, but what we tried to live by when we homeschooled our kids, education is not the filling of a bucket, but it's the lighting of a fire, right?
	And so, you know, you're trying to impose your stuff.
	I mean, you give them some basic, you give them a worldview and that type of thing, but you're also trying to We're good to go.
	We're in Tennessee, we have one legislator who's saying, you know, the only way that we're going to break this thing is to stop the gravy train and the financialization of this by just gradually phasing our, and can't cut it cold turkey, but let's start cutting down the amount of money that we accept from the federal government in terms of education until we eliminate it entirely.
	Now, he doesn't have a majority of people that are there, but what do you think about that type of solution?
	What do you think about the influence of the federal government?
	I honestly don't think the federal government has a big role to play in civics and history education.
	I think education is one of the few matters that still is left and should be left to the state and local governments.
	There's a whole history there where, as you know, No Child Left Behind in the early 1980s tried to give the federal government a major role in what we teach and how we teach, started this whole regime of testing that schools were kind of dominated by in many ways.
	And then, when it was time to re-up to renew No Child Left Behind, it ran into trouble because people didn't like the federal government controlling education in that way.
	And it was not re-upped.
	Instead, the Every Student Succeeds Act took its place, which returned a lot of the power to state and local governments.
	Mm-hmm. So, I would like to see the federal government as a cheerleader for civics and more history in civics education, but I would not like to see it as a major funder because, frankly, once they start funding, strings get attached and they start telling you how to teach.
	So, at the most...
	The federal government used to spend a fair amount of money on teacher education and preparation.
	And if they could do that without a lot of strings, I suppose that wouldn't be very harmful.
	But to me, the solution is not in Washington.
	No, yeah. I think there's a problem.
	The solution starts at the dinner table and it moves to the schools and lots of other players can be involved.
	I have a friend who has helped start, for example, National Civics B's.
	We're outside the classroom in middle school, which can be kind of boring, directionless years anyway.
	Right. Students get excited about things like debate and band and extracurricular activities.
	Well, they've started a national civics meeting.
	And these kids are excited.
	They're fired up about learning civics and competing with each other about what they know.
	I mean, there's so many. The great thing about the civics problem is we don't have to wait for Washington to fix it.
	We don't have to wait for Bill Gates or Warren Buffett to fund it.
	Everywhere from the dinner table to civics bees, to classrooms, to better jobs with teaching teachers, to primary documents, to oratory contests by civic groups, there's a hundred ways that we can improve civics starting tomorrow.
	So that's the good news.
	The bad news is we've got a big problem.
	The good news is lots of people could help fix it.
	We don't have to wait for a big fix.
	I agree. I agree.
	I think, you know, we always want to try to fix things from Washington.
	And it's really the Washington influence that's the problem.
	But the education and the solution is going to really start, like you said, around the family table.
	And it's going to start local.
	And, you know, if we want to fix this problem...
	Pretty much like any other problem, we've got to do it from the grassroots up.
	All politics and local people have said, and I think that truly is the case.
	And so, you know, the money is the enticement that is there for the vets to come in and corrupt the system and to control it.
	But we need to understand that our power is there at the local level.
	It really is interesting talking to you about this, and again, I love the title, Republic, if we can teach it.
	Right. We're good to go.
	You know, whatever happens to them, go with a default decision.
	That's, I think, how we got into this kind of situation as well.
	David Davenport, thank you very much for joining us.
	And again, Republic, if we could teach it, Fixing America's Civic Education Crisis.
	You can find that at Republic Book Publishers.
	Is there a website that you'd like people to go to, or just tell them to go to Amazon?
	Oh, Amazon. Slow delivery, but they'll get it to you.
	Okay. Thank you so much for what you're doing, and thank you for joining us.
	We're going to take a quick break folks and we'll be right back.
	Thank you.
	music
	sense. Common again.
	You're listening to The David Knight Show.
	Welcome back. Let's talk a little bit about some news.
	I want to do a follow-up on yesterday's author, David Steinman, whose book was Raising Healthy Kids.
	He was talking about what we feed their bodies.
	They would talk about what we feed their minds.
	And this article came out yesterday, as a matter of fact.
	The same type of stuff that we're talking to with David Steinman.
	The kind of chemical pollution that is in our food supply.
	55% of sperm samples.
	Contain high levels of glyphosate.
	Yeah, glyphosate.
	Roundup, okay?
	The commercial name that it has.
	More than 55% of sperm samples from a French infertility clinic.
	What's the matter? Nothing is happening here.
	Well, let's test this.
	Oh, glyphosate everywhere.
	It contains high levels of the world's most common weed killer.
	Raising further questions about the chemical's effect on reproductive health and overall safety, says a new study.
	And that was one of the things that David Steinman was focusing on.
	He said, look...
	Get organic, non-GMO, but even better, get organic food.
	He said enough customer demand has been out there to build the base of it, and he said you're not going to see it even as a premium-priced thing anymore.
	But even if it is premium-priced in your area, it might be worth it to avoid the pesticides that are there.
	And if we go back and look at Monsanto, which is now owned by Bayer, They deliberately did this glyphosate stuff.
	They use it to kill weeds, and they genetically modified the seeds so that only their plants will grow in that area.
	This is one of the big sticking points.
	They had a lot of farmers in India who were committing suicide because they didn't realize that they'd poisoned their land for anything other than the seeds that they had to buy every year from Monsanto, or now from Bayer.
	And they were existing on just the barest of profits, and that basically made them insolvent.
	And so a mass number of them were committing suicide for that.
	They had no way to continue in that business.
	And what we have seen, especially because, again, a lot of farmers wanted to grow organic stuff.
	The glyphosate would contaminate the ground and not just the ground of the people that were using it, but that spray would overspray and get on other people's property and poison it.
	There was a couple of Very high-profile defeats for Monsanto.
	In one county alone, as this was being banned, they were putting a ban on glyphosites.
	In one county alone, they spent $8 million to defeat this legislation that would ban glyphosates in that area.
	Because the farmers knew better, it didn't matter.
	That was just wasted $8 million.
	And so as a result of these, what was happening is in different agricultural communities, they were going in and banning this stuff all over the country.
	So Monsanto at the time said, went to Washington and they bought some politicians.
	That's how they got around this. And their argument was, we don't want to have a patchwork quilt of regulation all over the country.
	We need to have one standard.
	Why? Why?
	We have federalism. There should be a patchwork of different regulations so we can see what works better, right? But instead they went to Washington and they bought these politicians and they imposed what all of us at the time called the Dark Act. And they said, well you're not going to do this at the local level. But of course they have no authority to prohibit that. All politics is local.
	You can block this stuff if you wish.
	And then it got worse. They came up with other variations of this stuff, dicamba, another pesticide, and it was really bad in terms of drifting onto other people's property.
	They even talked about the dicamba drift.
	And so, here in America, in December of 2023, a group of top U.S. public health advocacy groups petitioned the EPA to ban glyphosate.
	Those defenders have said there is no definitive proof of its toxicity to humans.
	Still, dozens of countries have banned it or restricted its use.
	Again, if you think that these problems are going to be fixed in Washington...
	You're stupid. You're naive.
	You have no understanding of where this is going to happen.
	You have to do it at the local level.
	You think the EPA cares about this?
	You think the EPA is going to stop it?
	You got Washington fighting people over fluoride in the water.
	How do you justify that?
	Again, even if you thought that it was effective, what is the difference between an effective medication and poison?
	Well, the difference is the dosage.
	How do you control the dosage if you drop it into the water?
	So we can end this whole fluoridation thing on that argument alone.
	We don't have to go into the numerous studies showing how harmful it is, especially to children's IQ. But the EPA is not focused on protecting us from glyphosate and sperm.
	As a matter of fact, the French researchers, it's the first time this is done, they tested the sperm, and they tested the blood of the men, and they found that the level of sperm was four times higher And the level of glyphosate in sperm was four times higher than it was in blood.
	So it's accumulating there.
	So how do we stop this?
	You know, the EPA has just this year released the EPA Climate Action Plan.
	What is that about? Well, that's about banning nitrogen and CO2 and methane from cow farts, right?
	And we've got the EPA out there banning cars and tractors and everything that's an internal combustion engine.
	And the EPA is out there banning power plants as well.
	The EPA is not going to do anything positive.
	They're not. Let's get over this.
	And, of course, Congress isn't going to do anything to stop the EPA just like they're not going to do anything to stop Fauci.
	Trump is not going to stop the EPA. Biden is not going to stop the EPA. They will let them run roughshod over that.
	So think about the fact that it wants to stop things like CO2, methane, nitrogen, natural things, but the EPA won't do anything to stop glyphosate.
	Do you see what the problem is?
	Do you see that what they're really doing is shutting down farms?
	They're not going to protect our food supply.
	We had something also yesterday that I thought was interesting.
	I talked about the New York Stock Exchange and how, you know, there's 2,300 stocks that are listed on the New York Stock Exchange, roughly, just under.
	And only 40 of them, 40 of them, but only 40 of them were affected by this glitch that they blamed on a software update.
	And so I'm looking at this, and I was like, okay, well, maybe that's true, but it just doesn't make any sense to me that a software update would affect only 40 out of 2,300 stocks.
	And one person that they quoted in the article said the same thing.
	I don't understand that.
	Maybe it doesn't make any sense because maybe they're lying to us.
	Maybe it was something else.
	Maybe it was some kind of a cyber attack.
	And yet the reality is this.
	You know, we look at these things. I talked about the issues of cyber security.
	And the fact that if you have a cybersecurity attack, and of course the World Economic Forum has been encouraging people to wargame it, trying to prepare the public for it.
	They have their cyber polygon.
	They've got another one coming up again this year.
	And, you know, it is to raise awareness of the public so that they're ready when this happens.
	And they don't, oh yeah, well, yeah, we knew that was going to happen, I guess.
	But... You know, when you look at what is happening with threats to our infrastructure and other aspects of our life, does it make a difference to us?
	If it is a ransomware attack, if it is a hostile foreign actor, or if it is a hostile domestic government that is doing a false flag attack because, hey, people are starting to realize what's going on with these vaccines, we're going to distract them with something, right? Does it make any difference?
	If it's any of those things, if it's kind of a deliberate act, or what if it's some kind of a vulnerability to natural attacks, or what if it is a consequence of our complex infrastructure?
	That maybe it's just going to break. It could be any or all of those things.
	And so we saw that yesterday with the New York Stock Exchange, actually the day before.
	And then yesterday what we saw was AT&T saying that customers are facing inoperability issues, is what they called it.
	In other words, it doesn't work.
	Or busted. Inoperability issues that have impacted the ability to call non-AT&T users.
	They say, well, it's now been resolved.
	Customers began reporting a nationwide issue that is affecting their ability to call non-AT&T users, said AT&T. The company later clarified that the network, quote, did not experience a nationwide outage, but some users across the country were affected.
	Kind of semantics, right?
	What they're saying is it didn't affect everybody, but it was across the country.
	I think that's interesting.
	And again, whether it is something malicious or if it's just a consequence of an increasingly complicated infrastructure, what you need to do is you need to prepare for that type of thing.
	Just like we talk about preparing for the bad actors in the Federal Reserve.
	And you can argue about whether it is malice or incompetence.
	I don't really care. It's going to be the same result for the rest of us when they destroy everything.
	They can be malicious or it can be, you know, because they're idiots.
	Like we've always said about Trump, fool or tool.
	You can have that debate, but it really fundamentally doesn't matter when you look at what happened, right?
	And so that is an issue that we're seeing across the board, infrastructure, politics, all of our institutions.
	Are they failing because we as a society are becoming an idiocracy?
	Or is it sabotage?
	Is it attack? Or is it just that we've created this thing we don't know how to run?
	The FCC said in a post on X that it was, quote, aware of reports that consumers in multiple states are unable to make wireless calls, and we're currently investigating.
	Back in late February, AT&T customers across the country experienced a similar outage following a software update.
	It's always a great cover story if it is malice and they don't want to tell you about it, isn't it?
	Because if they say, well, it was a software update, they're always doing software updates, and of course there'll have to be a software update to fix this problem, whether the problem is the software itself or whether the problem is a vulnerability that was exploited that is in the software.
	They will be doing a software update, and everybody's, oh, wow, it's a software.
	See, they did an update. We have a math professor who was fired after criticizing slavery reparations, and he has been battling the college that fired him now for two years.
	The teacher is Gregory Manco.
	He sued the institution that he taught at for nearly two decades, as well as he coached baseball for it, alleging that some administrators conspired With a few left-leaning former students to effectively cancel him over tweets that they say, that he says rather, ran afoul of their progressive dogma.
	The ordeal launched after an alumnus who received an F in his class back in 2017 discovered four years later that he, a mathematician, had tweeted from a then-anonymous South Jersey Giants Twitter account.
	Isn't it amazing that this person who got an F in his class couldn't do that kind of homework to get an A? Had to wait until four years after they graduated to go back and get an A. I guess it was bothering her.
	As a result, she filed a biased complaint alleging that he was racist and citing his social media activity, though she had never complained about him being racist as a student.
	She wasn't happy with her F. But she never said anything about that.
	And so when she made this bias complaint, the administrators then, instead of saying, well, where's your evidence?
	They encouraged the students to find evidence to come after him.
	You say, isn't that amazing?
	Bring me the man and I'll find the hate crime, to paraphrase Stalin.
	Yeah, okay, you don't like this guy?
	You said he's racist? All right, let's get everybody looking to see if we can find evidence.
	And they told students to start looking through social media and try to find this.
	So they had four other alumni join her and start investigating him.
	He had received glowing evaluations prior to this incident, but they immediately suspended him in 2021.
	Why? Because they're a bunch of Marxist professors, or administrators, who want to get rid of him, because he wasn't a Marxist.
	The probe eventually cleared him of any wrongdoing, but not until after they got rid of him.
	And they did it before...
	They went through the due process.
	You know, it's kind of like take the job and do the due process later.
	Who said something like that?
	Anyway, as the College Fix previously reported in 2021, in one of the controversial tweets, this is what he said that they used against him, but it really wasn't anything.
	He compared slavery reparations...
	To the great-great-grandchild of a murder victim asking the perpetrator's great-great-grandchild for compensation.
	Do we do that kind of thing?
	Where does it end then, right?
	Oh, okay, so your great-great-great-grandfather killed my great-great-great-grandfather.
	Now you need to pay me.
	He says this racist reparation BS, get it out of your head for good, he said.
	Well, the key thing is, he said it divides us.
	He said it worsens race relations.
	And, of course, he was right about all that.
	But they will use all that racism and hatred to shut him down.
	That's the way these things always run.
	So it's not enough to be right anymore.
	You have to be politically correct.
	And these institutions...
	How did the left...
	Take over these institutions.
	Well, because they work together like some kind of a coven, and they purge anybody that they even perceive to be slightly not a part of the club.
	They purge them out.
	He was right, of course, and besides that, besides the injustice of that, there's also the practical aspect of it, which I would have thought might have occurred to him as a mathematician.
	How do you figure out what everybody gets?
	And how do you figure out today who is the oppressor and who isn't?
	If you're going to go by skin color, that's not going to work.
	Remember we had Marxist Angela Davis, who was always with this, you know, forget the name of her organization, but she was always, you know, a Marxist race pimp pushing this stuff.
	And she was horrified to find out when they went back and checked her genealogy that both of her grandfathers were white.
	Horrified. She hated white people so much, and yet she are one.
	At least half.
	And so how do you allocate this stuff, right?
	Barack Obama, half white, and raised by white people.
	Does he get reparations or does he pay reparations?
	How about his kids?
	You know, Michelle, we're pretty sure that she is completely black, but we're not sure about her gender, actually.
	At least some people are.
	So, you know, what do we do with her kids?
	You know, do they get a reduced share based on the fact that their kids would be, what, one quarter white?
	You know, Obama is, Barack is half white.
	Are they white? One quarter, why?
	So do they reduce it that way?
	How do you allocate this stuff?
	How do you determine this stuff?
	It's absurd in the extreme, and it is designed just to create friction and to create a race war.
	And then we have Merrick Garland, and this is a very short little clip, and it was excellent.
	It's one of the things that Thomas Massey asks him about this special prosecutor.
	You know, where's the law for this?
	And how was the process?
	How did you get this special prosecutor that's coming after Trump?
	Listen to this. Was Jack Smith nominated by President Biden or confirmed by the U.S. Senate?
	Okay. You're asking me about a case.
	Again, motions filed.
	This is a simple question.
	Was Jack Smith nominated by President Biden?
	No, he was not. Was he confirmed by the Senate?
	No, he was not. When was the special counsel statute passed?
	There is no special counsel statute.
	There was an independent counsel statute that was expired.
	So it expired. So what gives you the authority to appoint a special counsel?
	You've created an office in the U.S. government that does not exist without authorization from Congress.
	I love Thomas Massey.
	He's not a Trump Kool-Aid drinker, but it's like, okay, so...
	Did Congress authorize this?
	No, the law expired.
	Who appointed this?
	I did it on my own cognizance, I guess, is maybe what the answer is.
	But that's a great exchange there.
	To show how these guys really don't care about anything.
	Isn't it amazing that Merrick Garland was put up by Obama for the Supreme Court?
	What a joke.
	Anyway, the Real ID program...
	It's gradually moving out there.
	They're going to make it mandatory next year.
	Actually, they've even got a date.
	May the 7th of next year, 2025.
	You will not be able to fly on a plane unless you have real ID. I'd like to know where the authority for that is.
	You know, we talk about Trump, right?
	It's great. Where is the authority for pretty much anything that anybody does?
	That's what Thomas Massey, he may do it yet.
	They ask him, where is your authority?
	For the TSA or whoever it is that did this, maybe the FAA, who took it upon themselves to tell us that we have to have a special form of ID in order to fly by next year?
	When was that passed by Congress?
	Or is this regulation without representation?
	Once in effect, this scheme will ban adults from domestic flights unless they have replaced their traditional state-issued IDs with real ID. Well, it's not going to affect me because I've already decided I'm not flying anymore.
	But that's just where it begins.
	And these types of things metastasize everywhere once they begin these things.
	So it must be opposed.
	As a matter of fact, I have a real ID, and I didn't even know it.
	Went down to get my driver's license when we moved to Tennessee, and I said, well, you're going to need to have this, this, and this, and so I come back with all that stuff.
	I said, man, it's a lot of paperwork.
	And then we get finished, and she goes, oh, now you've got your real ID, which is good because they were going to require this for people to fly on planes this year, but they've delayed it until next year.
	Oh, great. And she said, see, it's got this, and the picture of it is there on that article there.
	See, there's the one in California.
	They've got the California bear and they've got a star.
	Well, here in Tennessee, instead of having a gold bear with a white star on his behind, what does that symbolize?
	But instead of that, I got a yellow star of mine.
	And I said, yeah, I know another society where they had yellow stars to identify people, right?
	This is very Nazi-like to me as far as I'm concerned.
	Not interested in that at all.
	And then I got this from listener Scott.
	And I've had several people ask me, what's going on with Infowars and UFOs?
	And I was like, I really don't care.
	I mean, I care about the vaccine stuff.
	I care about the pandemic lies.
	I care about the fear about the gain of function.
	I care about stop the steal and all that kind of stuff.
	I really don't care about the UFO stuff.
	But I thought it was kind of funny.
	He sent this to me.
	And this is Mike Adams, who was hosting the Alex Jones Show that was shut down on Friday.
	You know, they completely shut down all of Infowars on Friday.
	Did you know that? Yeah.
	That didn't happen. But anyway, Mike Adams warns aliens are directing the extermination of humanity.
	Oh, okay.
	He's kind of right about that, you know.
	There is extraterrestrial intelligence that is directing and behind everything that is happening.
	That's what I believe. I don't believe it's bloodlines of the Illuminati as much as it is the bloodlines of the CIA and the occultic people like the CIA that are ruling us.
	I believe in God, so I believe in extraterrestrial intelligence.
	Pretty obvious. God, angels, demons, I believe that's a real...
	That's right.
	But he's selling a different kind of alien, as a matter of fact.
	That's good, Travis.
	And here we have...
	So he sent this to me.
	He goes, well, here's a few examples from the world's only reliable newspaper...
	The Weekly World News, the kind of stuff that you would see at the grocery store checkout 40 years ago.
	And this particular one I thought was really good.
	I got all of them.
	He sent me five of them here.
	Twelve U.S. senators are space aliens.
	And down at the bottom, you see that they've also found Dracula's skull.
	And so this is the kind of stuff.
	And they showed the 12 people there.
	This one here, Weekly World News again.
	Obama appoints Martian ambassador.
	Of course he would. He just loves those Martians.
	And flying cats are terrorizing West Virginia.
	Wife shrinks cheating husband.
	Yeah. Oh, and what did she shrink?
	And then we have this one here, number three.
	GOP to resurrect Reagan for 08.
	Secret technology to bring the president back to life.
	Is that what happened in the 2024 election?
	To me, that is one of...
	Now, these people actually predicted the future.
	You know, that's really what the election looks like this year with Trump and Biden.
	It's almost as if we had resurrected some long-dead person to come back and go.
	But the central item there is, are UFOs abducting cows?
	That's right. Is it the UFOs or is it the EPA? I just can't figure out which one.
	And to spare us maybe from global warming.
	So you will eat the bug bladder beast.
	Yeah, that's right. Hitchhiker's Guide to Galaxy.
	And then this one. Space aliens have a meeting with Bill Clinton, and down there you see in the corner that they also did that with President Bush.
	Evidently, it's not that they have this meeting with the CIA where they explain how things are going to work to them, but they evidently have a meeting with the aliens as well.
	And then this one. Computer virus spreads to humans.
	We'll have to put that up on the Epoch Times there.
	It must be a gain-of-function computer virus.
	And I love down at the bottom.
	It says, 9-11 misunderstands when somebody calls them up and says, bear with me.
	The man was being mauled by a bear, they said.
	And at the top, Atlantis found.
	And guess where they found it?
	Up in the Alps. These people are going to have to start writing the script for climate change people.
	Bar glasses help you to see straight when you're drunk.
	But isn't that the standard joke about the bar glasses that you've got for the ugly women or something that are there at the bar?
	Maybe they don't want to have the bar glasses.
	I don't know. Maybe you don't want to pay any attention to people who will tell you anything.
	The more sensational, the better.
	And of course, never pay any...
	We've got 20,000 National Guard out there arresting people right now on blockchain watermark ballots.
	Show me one of those blockchain watermark ballots.
	You had millions of them printed up, you said.
	Steve, can you show me one?
	How about you, Alex? Can you show me one of those?
	Thanks for joining us.
	Have a good day. 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?
