Using free speech to free minds.
You're listening to The David Night Show.
As the clock strikes 13, it's Friday the 21st of June, year of our Lord 2024.
Well, today there is a massive cyber attack that is happening with car dealerships across the U.S. and Canada.
There's about 15,000 car dealerships.
I was alerted to this by a listener, and it's been going on for a couple of days.
And it quietly happened, I guess, around Wednesday.
And the company that was supplying this information, all these different car dealerships, started getting involved with it yesterday.
So we're going to talk about that because it is a bigger deal for everybody.
It's the centralization that makes us so vulnerable.
Of course, today we're going to be talking to Jack Lawson about prepping, and we're going to have him take a look at...
The UK has just discovered prepping.
Nobody's doing it. It's kind of a funny article from The Telegraph about how to prep.
We'll take a look at that as well.
As I didn't get to this yesterday, we're going to take a look at the idiots who tried to spray paint Stonehenge orange.
Now they've tried to... Yeah, not a surprise these people couldn't find it.
They can't even figure out which way the wind is blowing, as I pointed out when I tweeted this out a couple of days ago.
But first, let's talk about this car dealership cyberattack.
This is a massive cyberattack on a company called CDK Global.
Whenever you centralize things, you make it all vulnerable.
You see, this is, again, besides the specifics of this case, this is something that has happened across our society.
Everything has become so centrally controlled, so dependent on computers, And so accessible for criminals anywhere or for foreign governments anywhere as well.
Now, I don't think this is a foreign government attack.
This has all the hallmarks of ransomware.
I mean, it's not really going after our infrastructure.
It's attacking a large group of auto dealers there.
And nobody in the hacker community has claimed responsibility for it.
But everybody believes that it is ransomware.
CDK Global is not saying anything about it.
But they provide software at over 15,000 dealerships in the U.S. and Canada.
And without this, they can't do credit checks.
They can't do anything.
They're completely dependent upon this.
The listener who sent this to me, Brandon, said, It's not good.
It's been down for two days.
This is the third day.
Everything is being done on paper and manually.
Some dealerships have just said, well, we can't do anything.
But I think in this difficult market, you're not going to pass it up.
You're going to do it on paper.
We had situations where we would have snowstorms or something like that, but we'd still keep the video store open, you know, 40 years ago, and people would find a way to get there.
They'd find a way to walk in the snow, because we didn't have really any snow removal there.
It happened so infrequently.
But they would find a way to walk to the grocery store, get milk and bread, and then they would go to the video store, get something.
Even if they didn't have power, they would still go get a movie.
But usually we didn't lose power.
But the times that we did, we would do everything by paper.
And then we'd have to catch it up later on.
So he said, it sounds like it's a ransomware attack, but we don't have any confirmation on it.
Supposedly both of CDK's data centers are affected.
The earliest will be up is Saturday, but it could be a week or more.
Yeah, what I was seeing CDK saying publicly, it could be several days.
It's absolutely insane.
Our CFO said he heard from another CFO, a different group, that it was in fact ransomware and that CDK paid the ransom and some stuff was restored.
Then the attackers increased the price.
And CDK said, no more.
And afterward, the attackers locked everything back down.
Now the FBI is supposedly involved.
Well, that should fix it. You know, to get the FBI on, they'll have this thing solved in no time at all.
You're really trouble if you've got the FBI involved.
They're not going to be able to do anything.
As a matter of fact, it was just a Babylon Bee satire that, just talking about how rogue and stupid the FBI has become, but rogue.
They showed pictures of a shooting range, and instead of the, you know, they got the little clips where you clip the target, could be a typical bullseye target, or it could be silhouette of a person, and you send it down the range in, you know, 25 feet or whatever, and you shoot at it, and then you bring it back to get your target and unclip that.
Well, the picture says they've now replaced the targets.
With the Constitution.
They showed the Constitution hanging down with holes shot through it by the FBI. But anyway, getting back to this.
So it's been a rough two days.
Now it's up to three for everybody with no hope in sight.
15,000 auto dealerships in the U.S. and Canada.
An additional 15,000 heavy truck dealers.
Some eyes and everything else.
They said they're all screwed right now.
I heard CDK's competitors have been visiting CDK stores to take advantage of the situation, trying to get them to switch providers.
Well, it truly is amazing.
But just understand, folks, this is not limited to this industry.
We keep seeing this happening from one industry to the other.
This is not limited either to just criminal ransomware attacks.
We're incredibly vulnerable to foreign attacks on our infrastructure.
Who would do that?
We've made enemies all over the world.
Look at what's happening right now in Russia.
What are Russia and Ukraine doing?
They're launching missiles at each other's infrastructure.
They're trying to take out refineries.
They're trying to take out power stations and all the rest of this stuff.
And of course, it's very easy to do that electronically, isn't it?
And of course, the border is wide open.
So if you want to come in with some rifles and shoot up some transformers, it does the same thing.
We're extremely vulnerable, and with everything that's centralized, and again, just taking a look at the power, when everything is on a highly centralized power grid, That means we're very vulnerable to this, to any kind of attack, any kind of, you know, emergencies like this.
And we need to be able to prepare for it individually.
And that means not just temporary preparation, but more long-term things.
For example, like I said many times, I don't like solar for the grid.
It's really, you know, it's like, well, the people have only got one tool.
Everything, you know, only have a hammer.
Everything looks like a nail, right?
And to use solar on the grid is like, you know, trying to hammer everything.
It's not the appropriate tool for that.
It's a great tool if you want to get independent of the grid.
But it's not a good tool for the grid.
Anyway, back to this. The Iowa Automobiles Dealership Association has reported that about a quarter of its 270 member dealerships are affected by the cyber attack.
As I said before, it began on June 19th.
Really, nothing happened that day in response.
Nothing happened the next day.
CDK is now saying that they're working on this to bring things back.
But, of course, inside information, this is what's publicly put out.
The inside information is that they did pay some ransomware.
Then they decided that they wanted more.
They didn't pay that.
So then they went back and locked everything down again.
So, a lot of disruption, a lot of chaos, and a lot of dealerships that are processing stuff by hand.
Just kind of going with a seat of the pants estimates as to whether or not somebody is creditworthy, because they can't get into that evidently as well.
I guess that all runs through this particular system.
So, a very disturbing situation that's happening there.
Jason Barker, how did we ever sell cars before the internet?
Exactly. We have four computers.
We'll have to go back and look at some of the videotapes about that.
VHS. Figure out how we did it.
It is amazing, isn't it?
How vulnerable and dependent we have become.
How we are unable, apparently, to do anything on our own.
And this is a video of a woman, 91 years old.
And she has been in business for about 60 years.
It was sometime in the 1960s that she opened up this location, this Arby's in Hollywood.
And now she has been put out of business.
This was sent to me by Tony.
She said the final nail in the coffin was the $20 an hour minimum wage.
But she mentioned a couple of other things that I thought were very interesting as well.
All that plywood closing the book on the Arby's franchise, which opened on January 5th of 1969.
Once it was the only fast food restaurant on Sunset Boulevard that actually had a view of the Hollywood sign.
But nature and urban evolution has put a sunset on that view, and now the Arby's roast beef number 150 is closing.
Ninety-one-year-old original owner Marilyn Leviton shares her emotions and thoughts on the store's demise.
Truth is, I think it was the pandemic that did us in.
I really feel we would have closed during the pandemic, except for the federal loans.
Arby's is demanding more technical equipment, which we couldn't afford.
And I don't think the $20 an hour wage increase helped either.
I'm awfully sorry that it came to this.
I think we did a good job for $50.
Yeah, for 55 years.
Had that. And so, you know, just think about this.
Most businesses don't last beyond five years.
Hers lasted for 55 years.
She knows what she's doing.
She's still pretty, really sharp.
91 years old. Man.
So, she mentioned three things.
The first one that nearly did them in was Trump's lockdown.
You see, people like her...
Independent small business owners who have poured their blood, sweat, and tears into this thing and their labor and their capital, they don't matter.
They don't matter. Matter of fact, I was just furious about that on the day I got fired, reaching against Trump for doing that.
I think it's the most despicable thing I've ever seen in my life, what he did.
And to add insult to injury, to call them non-essentials.
No, those people are essential.
Unfortunately, those are the people who typically support Trump.
And so she said, yeah, you know, they gave me the COVID cash, and that helped a little bit.
But see, the COVID cash now has turned into this giant avalanche of a snowball that is threatening all of us.
And so that was no solution.
The lockdown was no solution.
Even if it had been a real pandemic, it was no solution.
But it wasn't a real pandemic.
The COVID cash and the Trump trillions that were spent, which established a pattern that we're going to do trillions.
And we're now adding a trillion every hundred days or so to the debt.
It's absolutely insane.
That other Trump president, you know, he did a bump stock.
And he also bumped the debt incredibly.
But anyway, she was non-essential.
But she kind of made it through that, but they're still struggling.
Then, two other things happened at the same time.
She's got the franchisor, you know, Arby's, telling the individual franchisees like her that they've got to buy a bunch of new equipment.
And it's probably a bunch of nonsense like computers and artificial intelligence that take orders as people are driving through.
But I said from the very beginning that I think Newsom's $20 an hour minimum wage, as it was focused on businesses like hers, remember, it had to be a business concern where they had, as typically fast food, we had 80 or more restaurants nationwide.
Now, they didn't have to own 80 of these as a franchisee.
I think she only owns that one, maybe.
But Arby's is included because there's so many different Arby's everywhere.
And I said, that's a really strange way to do this.
And that is happening as the people in Silicon Valley are pushing very hard to find an app that they can use their robots hooked up to AI. And we've seen all the different demos.
Everybody's got one of a robot that's preparing food and so forth.
And I said, I believe that Newsom is doing this to provide essentially a prod...
For these companies to start mandating these robot chefs for all their different franchises.
An investment of more capital, which many of them don't have, because like her, she's just hanging on by a thread after what Trump did to her.
Made it 55 years.
Well, 50 years or so, until Trump came along.
What a son of a gun he is.
Anyway, and then Newsom.
They're going to raise the minimum wage, and then the franchisee is going to tell them they've got to get more automated equipment and all the rest of the stuff.
She just says, I'm done. Between this kind of fascist program, this alliance between big tech and Newsom to screw these people down, you know, she can't handle anything.
Anyway, she's 91.
Yeah, as a matter of fact, Play the McDonald's AI video.
This is what it looks like when they demoed it at a convention.
And I'll kind of give you a...
I'll show you what it doesn't do.
Go ahead and run it. What can I get for you?
Yes, I am. Could I have a number two with a Coke?
Okay. Now, number two, there's three different options.
It doesn't ask for clarification.
An apple pie? She wants an apple pie.
That's not putting the apple pie there.
And so the person who's there with it...
What else would you like?
She doesn't. Your total is $9.94 at the pay...
Okay, now... Hi, let me know if you're using the app.
What can I get for you? Hear that?
What can I get for you? You know, same type of voice that you saw from that OpenAI robot.
What was it called? Prime or something like that.
Hey, man, what you doing?
You know, this is California dude voice.
This is kind of a little bit raspy California speak, you know, in this thing.
And so she orders a number two.
Now, there's three different options for a number two, but she doesn't ask which one of those three.
She just picks one. Then she says, I'd like to have an apple pie.
And then nothing happens, and the woman's standing next to her, who is demoing this to the franchisees who are watching it.
So sometimes it takes a little bit of time.
Well, it didn't take any time for the first one, especially because it didn't ask her for any clarification as to which one of the three options for number two she wanted.
And so then it waits for a while, and then it goes, okay, what else would you like?
And it doesn't put that there.
It was a comedy of errors.
And yet, a lot of money wasted on that by the franchisees as well as the franchisor.
And that's what's going to be happening.
And they've got partners with the government nudging it along to make it too expensive to have humans go buy the robots.
You know, yeah, it's going to take some capital.
Hey, you don't have enough capital?
Well, maybe you shouldn't be a franchisee.
Jason Barker said, I was talking to Gard about this yesterday, about the hack of the auto dealership.
So we've become too reliant on connectivity and digitization.
Before I retired from the army, if the internet went down, they'd just send us home.
Can we not go to war without the internet now?
It says, in 30 years we put all of our eggs in a digital and fragile basket.
That's exactly right, Jason.
Again, Jason, the Knights of the Storm and Foxhole Report, you can find in both of those places.
Let's talk a little bit about civil asset forfeiture because we've had some Supreme Court cases that have come this week and we've got a lot more that are teed up to happen.
Usually the Supreme Court clears these cases by the end of June and we're getting really close to that.
And so there's going to be a lot of decisions coming at us very quickly.
But let's take a look first at this decision about civil asset forfeiture.
The headline from the Gateway Pundit says highway robbery.
Well, that is exactly what it is.
It's been called a form of highway robbery by many.
It's literally highway robbery, and we've seen this.
The San Bernardino Sheriff's Department Was literally robbing an armored car.
They did it three times. The third time, these guys were ready for them.
They didn't have anything in there, and they recorded these sheriff's deputies talking about, man, I thought we were going to get like a million dollars out of it, because we did before, you know, that type of thing.
And, of course, it's not two rogue deputies.
The entire sheriff's department is criminal.
And it is a criminal collusion.
Between these local sheriff's departments and the federal government.
The federal government keeps pushing it.
And giving them, saying, you know, you steal this stuff and we'll give you 80% of it.
We'll keep 20%. Because, you know, we're going to protect you, give you legal cover for your theft.
Bunch of thieves.
That's what I say. The war on drugs, the way that it has corrupted our courts, the way it has corrupted our law enforcement.
In this particular case, the corruption has gone all the way up to the Supreme Court.
Because that's what this is.
It's nothing but corruption.
It was Lysander Spooner who said many years ago, he was a libertarian up in New England, opened up a competition to the Postal Service and was killing them.
And so they had to put some new laws in to protect the Postal Service from one guy who went into competition with them.
They were so inefficient.
But he said the difference between government and a highway robber is that a highway robber will steal your property and then go his own way.
Whereas the government will steal your property and follow you down the road, nagging you.
This is a guy who was back in the middle of the 1800s.
It was there at the time of the Civil War.
So the government is constantly robbing us.
Today we call it civil asset forfeiture.
That's what we call highway robbery.
And it's the police.
And what was there was not specifically civil asset forfeiture, although implicitly the Supreme Court supported that.
What was at stake here was the fact that they were robbing people and then these people could not get a hearing to try to get their property back.
And remember, these people have not been charged of the crime.
Their property has been charged of the crime.
You'll see things like the U.S. government versus $1,000 cash.
Or the U.S. government versus this car, and they'll have the vehicle ID number for it.
That's what you see.
They're charging inanimate objects with crime and arresting these inanimate objects.
It's so ridiculous.
This is as absurd as the training movement.
It's as absurd as the furry movement.
But this is our government.
And this is Republicans as well as Democrats doing it.
And they've been doing it for a long time.
I've pointed out many times, going back to the beginning of this Sandy Hook thing, had Megyn Kelly come to do a report that they were going to roll out as they rolled out the charges, the lawsuit against Alex Jones.
And so she came in and she interviewed all of us.
And I made it very clear that I didn't support Trump at that time.
And she said, why not?
I said, well, civilized at four for me.
I started listing a whole bunch of things, and when I got to civilized at four, she said, what is that?
And I said, you know, well, I was absolutely amazed.
You know, here's this talking head on Fox News that pays like $25 million a year.
And she has a legal background as well.
She doesn't know about it.
I explained to her she didn't care about it.
They don't care. It's the practice of police by using delayed tactics where they confiscate cash, jewelry, cars, other valuables from people who are frequently completely innocent.
They're never charged.
These people have not been convicted.
They've not been charged.
Their inanimate object property that's been stolen has not been charged either.
And it's not been convicted.
The so-called asset forfeiture cases.
And why do they call it civil? They call it civil because there is no law.
You see, we allowed the civil asset forfeiture thing to run now for quite some time.
It piggybacked off of the RICO statutes.
Which, by the way, is now being used against Rudy Giuliani.
And I think it is perfectly fitting since he built his career as a prosecutor before he became mayor.
He built his career on using RICO. And I don't care if he is using it to lock up the bad guys.
The worst thing that can happen...
Is if the government becomes criminal.
If the government becomes lawless.
If the government is lawless, that's far more dangerous to us than the Corleone family.
Because it is so much bigger.
And so when the government becomes organized crime, that's the worst case scenario.
And that's what Rudy Giuliani turned it into.
And then, of course, he used that to become mayor.
He used 9-11 and his cover-up of 9-11 to become famous.
And then he ran for president and things like that.
But anyway, he's now being charged over the RICO statute.
But out of the RICO statute grew civil asset forfeiture.
And they put civil in there because this is something that is a rule, not a law.
Oh, where have we seen that before?
Well, for the last four years, we have been ruled by bureaucratic rules, not by any laws that were passed by our elected representatives.
And so when you have the IRS or you have the DEA or anybody sets up this rule, You have no presumption of innocence.
You have no due process. They can even charge and arrest inanimate objects with their ridiculous civil rules.
As I said, this is the core of the issue.
Nobody is talking about the legal foundation of prevarications That were what they built all this stuff on that they did to us in the last several years.
So this is a 6-3 decision in the Supreme Court, unfortunately.
And they said that the justices held that there are, quote, no due process protections for citizens and asset forfeiture proceedings.
Yeah. Well, we kind of knew that, didn't we?
And there's no due process protections to have an early court hearing.
That's the part that they're really focused on.
I should have a speedy trial.
No, you don't have any due process.
We just take the property and we do the process later.
Maybe. Maybe.
Well, that's not due process.
But that's the way our government works.
You see, Trump knows how the government works.
Pelosi knows how the government works as well.
She said, we've got to pass the laws to find out what's in it.
They don't write the laws. They let the bureaucracy write the law.
And due process?
That's a historical thing that we've moved on from.
Trump understands that.
So, the idea that you've got due process protections to have an early court hearing to contest the government keeping possession of their seized property while they await a trial.
They haven't been charged with anything.
They have to sue in civil court.
They have to sue the government to get their property back.
And they have to show that they're innocent.
That the property is innocent.
Lawyers for the Rutherford Institute were joined by those from the ACLU. People on both the left and the right to argue that an early hearing was needed to protect citizens against the government's delay tactics.
Neil Gorsuch said that it is a problem to have the police delay proceedings and keep citizens' private property for as long as a year or more.
He said it could coerce the owners to settle the dispute by paying a penalty for property that they need for their work or that they love or whatever, right?
Well, that's exactly what it's about.
You know, it's about coercion.
It's about saying, well, you know, I'm not really violating the law.
I'm just delaying this and all the rest of this stuff.
It is categorically wrong.
It is a violation of all due process, and the Supreme Court doesn't care.
That's how corrupted our government has become.
By prohibition.
By prohibition that was never passed with a constitutional amendment like alcohol prohibition was.
The majority overruled him.
Six to three. Americans no longer have to be guilty to be stripped of their property, of their rights, and of their liberties, warned John Whitehead, who is president of the Rutherford Institute.
He said you only have to possess something that the government wants.
Or, you know, if you've got a business like that McDonald's and they just want to shut you down, well, you don't have any due process for that.
It's going to lock you down.
Yep, yep, that's what it is, says Jabzinda.
Asset forfeitures become a booming business for the government with federal forfeitures alone, having brought in $2.5 billion during 2018.
Civil asset forfeiture is a practice where government agents, usually the police, seize private property they suspect.
May be connected to criminal activity.
And then, whether or not any crime is actually proven to have taken place, the government keeps the citizen's property, often divvying it up by the local police who did the initial seizure.
Getting back to that San Bernardino department, you have a sheriff's department that three times robbed an armored truck under the pretense that this armored truck had gone to a marijuana store, which is legal in California.
But the federal government said, going back to the Trump administration, Jeff Sessions, you go ahead and keep doing that civil asset forfeiture, and we'll give you legal cover, and we'll give you 80% of whatever you steal.
So they kept coming at this armored truck company and stealing the cash from them.
Armored truck company had committed no crime.
The marijuana store had committed no crime.
We have a criminal government.
Yes, the property has no presumption of innocence.
Government rules are not the same as laws passed by your elected representatives.
And so you have no due process.
You have no presumption of innocence.
Challenging these things in court can cost an owner more than the value of the confiscated property itself, which, as Justice Gorsuch pointed out, It's why agencies reportedly place special emphasis on seizing low-value items and relatively small amounts of cash.
In Chicago, they are confiscating cars.
Well, I think this car, you know, is probably used by somebody who is using drugs or something like that.
So I'm just going to steal your car. Most of the cars are only worth about $1,000.
They're going into the poor communities and they're stealing these cars.
And if you want to contest this, it costs you $900 to just file a lawsuit to try to get your property back.
So they get cars that are around $1,000.
To make sure that nobody contests any of this stuff.
It is such an amazing criminal racket.
Maybe we could charge the government with racketeering and influence corrupt organizations.
They are a corrupt organization.
Our own government.
And it is racketeering.
So there were some other things that are going to be coming out pretty soon.
There's going to be more decisions about gun rights, about abortion access, about social media content, about homelessness, federal regulatory authority, about the opioid crisis, and then, of course, whether Trump and other people affiliated with January the 6th can be prosecuted and some of the charges that they have brought against them.
And so most of this stuff will probably come out right about the time or a little bit before the debate, which is scheduled for June 27th between these two avatars.
Probably the best way we could describe it.
A couple of puppets, avatars, representatives for the two crime families behind them, the Republicans and the Democrats.
Trump has touted the three appointments he made that gave the court a supermajority of conservatives as one of his top accomplishments as president.
But his campaign was, they call it circumspect.
They're pretty much silent about the bump stock being overturned.
And they also didn't have much to say, if anything, about a challenge to the abortion pill.
That was thrown out by his...
Of course, that one was really...
That was a unanimous decision.
And even though I don't support the abortion pill, and I think many of...
Or at least several of them on the Supreme Court would not support it.
And not support the idea that it could be mailed out, that it could be handed out over the counter...
To women who have not had an exam to see whether or not they could safely take it.
Nobody cares about women's health.
These abortionists don't. But in this particular case, this case was brought by people who didn't prescribe the pill, didn't sell the pill.
They really didn't have any standing.
I mean, it was a legal technical issue.
Can Trump be prosecuted over accusation of trying to steal the 2020 election?
This is one of the things that's going to be up before then.
Critics have said that the court has taken so long to decide this, that it'll likely be impossible for a trial to conclude before the November election, even if a majority rule that Trump is not immune from prosecution.
And then you have the January 6th defendants that Trump left twisting in the wind instead of giving them a pardon.
As I pointed out before, we have historical precedence.
Gerald Ford pardoned Nixon before he was charged for anything.
And going back to the Civil War, which is where this Insurrection Act came from, then-President Andrew Johnson, who took over from Lincoln, pardoned all the people who had been involved in the Civil War.
He basically shut down that effort by Congress to get revenge and gave them a pardon before they were charged with anything.
So another case deals with obstruction charges.
That has been applied to one-fourth of the defendants on January the 6th, and also against Trump.
This particular case, though, is the case of Joseph Fisher, a former police officer from Pennsylvania.
He entered the Capitol and was charged with obstructing Congress.
The issue is whether or not the law making obstruction a crime was meant to apply only to the destruction of documents rather than to interrupting a public meeting.
350 out of the first 1,350 defendants from January the 6th were charged under the obstruction law.
It's just amazing to me to see how many people Trump left twisting in the wind.
And it's equally amazing and despicable that the Biden FBI... We'd still be out there still searching for more and more people and still arresting them and charging them, even this year.
Just amazing. My conscience is cleared.
I did everything I could to tell people, even on Alex's show, when he was grifting and pushing this thing, I told people it's a grift.
You're not going to be able to do anything on January the 6th.
It's just going to get you entrapped.
There's going to be agent provocateurs there, and I said it from that day up to the morning of January the 6th.
I was telling everybody, stay away.
It is a trap.
Trump wants to make money. Alex wants to make money.
They're selling you a hopeless idea.
And now they're doing it all again.
And you've got people like Steve Bannon, Jack Posobiec, as well as Alex jumping into this again.
They're already preparing for January the 6th, even earlier than they did the last time.
It's amazing. It's amazing.
You know, I don't like talking about it because I have always said, oh, you're a bitter old man.
It's like, no, I'm not a bitter old man.
I know what these people are doing.
I told people that knowing I was going to get fired.
And I'll do it again.
I don't care if people turn it off.
I don't care what they think about me.
I've had people who have written me saying that they didn't go because they heard me say that and they were cautious.
But I have to warn people if I see something like that.
And wouldn't you? You know, the people I worked with wouldn't.
That tells you something.
If you saw somebody about to step out in front of a bus, wouldn't you say something?
No. These people, you would, but these people I work with, they would grab a video camera and say, hey, watch this, we're going to get on YouTube.
And they'd film you getting run over by a bus.
That's what he did.
That's what Trump did.
That's what Alex did. Anyway, abortions.
Are emergency abortions allowed in states with strict bans?
This is an Idaho case.
The issue is that they're allowed to save the life of the mother, but not the health of the mother.
This is, I guess, this gray area that they want to get this corrupt Supreme Court to give them a decision on.
Is the law banning domestic abusers from having guns constitutional?
What is at issue here is whether or not, I guess, the person who has a restraining order put against them, is that the same as having a conviction?
Where this could be assessed as a punishment.
If the Supreme Court rules that a law banning domestic abusers from owning guns is not consistent with past regulations, and therefore violates the Second Amendment, it would be a continuation of the conservative court's expansion of gun rights even for potentially dangerous people.
But such a decision could also help the present son, Hunter, who was convicted this month of lying about his drug use and buying a revolver in 2018.
Biden has argued that the case is unconstitutional under the Supreme Court's 2022 decision.
Hunter Biden has argued that.
Not Joe Biden. Joe Biden has spent his entire career trying to abolish every aspect of the Second Amendment.
And so, what is at issue here...
Can the court keep adding different infringements to the Second Amendment?
Such as, well, if you are a drug user, you can't get a gun.
That type of thing.
Can social media content moderation be restricted?
There are three cases about social media censorship.
The court is deciding whether the Biden administration improperly leaned on social media platforms to remove postings on COVID-19, on the 2020 elections, and other issues that it considered to be disinformation.
In other court cases, the court is deciding if laws passed by Texas and Florida to limit the ability of powerful social media companies to moderate content are constitutional.
Look, I don't know why nobody pulls this stuff up.
I mean, I talked to Robert Barnes about this when I was at Infowars, and we talked about it on air.
And I said, it seems to me like this is clear.
It was clear thinking when they did it in 1946, the Supreme Court said in Marsh v.
Alabama that the public square, even if it's privately owned, it was a coal town.
And the coal company owned the public square.
They had somebody passing out religious tracts and said, you can't do it.
Well, this person took them all the way to the Supreme Court, and the Supreme Court said, even if the public square is privately owned, they can't stop it.
As this is all happening, we had Jack Dorsey, when he owned Twitter, went on over eight times in testimony.
He said under oath, Twitter is a digital public square.
And it is.
We know that. Whether or not he says that, we know that's true.
Now, the argument that Robert Barnes is making, other people have said, is that, well, there's been subsequent to that, there's been hearings saying that you can't You know, set up a soapbox and start doing things in a mall.
The mall's not a public square.
It's not the same thing.
That is a completely different scenario.
The internet is not like the mall.
The internet is like that coal town where the public square was privately owned.
That's the correct analogy.
And so, I guess they're not going to even take a look at that, though.
The High Court is deciding whether an Oregon City can bar people who are homeless from sleeping outside if shelter is not available.
Why is that something that the Supreme Court should even have any jurisdiction over?
That's a local issue.
They don't have the authority to get involved in that, but they've made a federal case out of it.
Are you going to make a federal case out of this?
Yeah, everything. Federal government's regulatory powers.
Will they be curtailed?
The court is expected to weaken and possibly overturn a 40-year-old precedent that has guided how federal agencies protect the environment, workers, consumers, and more.
Under what is known as the Chevron doctrine, courts have deferred to the agency's interpretation of a law if the statute isn't clear.
Critics say that it has given the executive branch too much authority.
The deep state, the executive branch, has way too much authority.
Defenders of the doctrine say that Congress can't anticipate every circumstance.
When, for example, writing laws to protect the environment and subject matter experts of the agencies are needed to fill in the blanks.
If you're going to fill in the blanks, then what we're talking about is what Nancy Pelosi said.
Well, we've got to pass Obamacare to find out what's in it.
What they're doing is they're passing and giving broad powers to the bureaucracy so the bureaucracy can fill in the devilish details.
Look, if you can pass broad principles that are there, you don't need to give them the ultimate power over what to put in.
This is backwards thinking.
This is the way that you destroy freedom.
By giving the legislative authority regulation without representation.
You give that to the bureaucracy.
And yes, that is the way that it has been going for a very long time under the Chevron Doctrine.
Will the Supreme Court do anything about it?
I seriously doubt it.
Will a multi-billion dollar settlement over opioid crisis survive?
This is the Sackler family, Purdue Pharmaceuticals.
This massive opioid epidemic that even roped in Rush Limbaugh.
The vast majority of victims supported the settlement with Purdue Pharmaceutical, but the Justice Department stepped into the case to question whether courts could shield the Sacklers from future civil lawsuits, a practice that has been used in major bankruptcies dealing with harms caused by asbestos and silicon breast implants.
While the case deals with a technical question of bankruptcy law, which is always federal, there are wrenching stories not far below the surface involving Americans who have lost children, spouses, parents to a crisis that claimed about 80,000 lives in 2022 alone.
And then we get to the big kahuna.
The last one we'll talk about here before we take a break.
The Supreme Court saved a Trump tax.
And the question is, is this action going to enable or is it a threat to a wealth tax that Biden and Elizabeth Warren want to put in?
And this is really what we're looking at.
You know, besides civil asset forfeiture and that bad 6-3 decision, this, I think, is also an egregious violation.
In one of the most closely watched cases of this term, the Supreme Court upheld a major piece of the 2017 Trump Tax Cuts and Jobs Act on Thursday, rejecting a challenge that threatened to shred much of the current tax system.
And this one, it wasn't 6-3, it was 7-2.
And you only had Clarence Thomas and Gorsuch who said what I think was the correct decision.
So what was at stake here?
The one person who is a senior fellow at the Tax Policy Center said, well, this preserved our income tax system because this case really could have upended everything.
Oh, so it's based on pragmatic considerations?
We don't care about preserving the Constitution, justice, the rule of law.
No, no, no. We've got to preserve the income tax and the IRS. Why?
You don't care what the deficit is anymore.
Right? Republicans and Democrats don't care.
Just take a look at Machiavelli and Mike.
He doesn't care what the deficit is anymore.
The Democrats are even more explicit about it.
They've moved on from Keynesian economics.
Now they've got MMT, modern monetary theory, or the magic money tree, where, hey, it doesn't matter.
None of this stuff matters. The debt doesn't matter.
And the income tax doesn't come anywhere close to paying the debt.
We're adding a trillion dollars every 100 days, so why do you need the income tax?
They need it to keep us down.
They need it to give themselves power to confiscate from us, and that's what this decision is about that Trump did, this tax situation that he did.
So, what is the case specifics?
You had a Washington couple.
Who got a $15,000 tax bill thanks to their part ownership of a friend's firm that sold farm equipment in India, even though the business had not distributed any of its cash profits back to investors.
That's called unrealized gain.
Donald Trump taxed people on unrealized gain.
Yeah, talk to me about tips.
Talk to me about having him lead an effort to rewrite the tax code.
This is, okay, you got a stock.
Well, I think the stock's gone up in value.
Pay the tax on this increase in value, that type of thing.
That's where this leads. And that's where Biden and Elizabeth Warren wanted this to lead.
Now, the Supreme Court narrowed the decision down to cast some doubt as to that.
And as a matter of fact, based on what they said, there are four people in the Supreme Court who would not support that kind of wealth tax.
Well, you know, as I look here, you got some of this NVIDIA stock, and it went up, so I'm going to tax you on the profits right there, even though you haven't sold it.
That's the insanity of this.
So, will that happen?
Well, we know that there are four justices who are against that extension of this.
But they need to have five.
Will they be able to pick up Kavanaugh or Roberts?
They're both pretty unreliable on this stuff.
And so that remains to be seen.
So they claim that this tax is unconstitutional, arguing that under the 16th Amendment, the IRS only has the power to touch income that has been realized by taxpayers When they receive a dividend or when they sell a stock.
If the court had agreed, it would have legally foreclosed several ideas that Democrats have put forward in recent years to tax billionaires, including the Biden administration's proposal to tax unrealized capital gains of anyone with a net worth over $100 million.
Or the more straightforward wealth tax championed by Focahontas, Elizabeth Warren.
And so the Supreme Court has now left this door open.
Former House Speaker Paul Ryan at one point suggested that the court ruled in their favor they would have to toss out about a third of the tax code.
Hey, Paul, you should have done that when you were Speaker of the House.
When you were Speaker of the House, you should have gotten rid of the IRS. But, you know, you look at what happens with these Republican speakers like Machiavelli and Mike.
What do they do? They are going to make the Machiavelli and Mike is even worse than Kevin McCarthy.
Kevin McCarthy was going to say, well, you want it seven times bigger?
I'm going to only make it five times bigger.
Well, Machiavelli and Mike is back to making it seven times bigger, just like Biden wanted to do.
The court battled, batted down this suit, ruling that the income in question had been realized when the company earned it.
And for legal purposes, the government was allowed to attribute those profits to the shareholders or the partners of the business.
Only two conservative justices, Clarence Thomas and Neil Gorsuch, dissented.
Wow. You want to talk about for legal purposes?
It doesn't even make rational sense.
In his opinion for the majority, Kavanaugh wrote the opinions.
He's one of the people that, oh, I don't know, where's this guy going to be when they come for the wealth tax?
You think that's for billionaires, folks?
That's what they told everybody when they instituted the income tax.
It's for the richest of the rich.
It's for the 1% of the 1%, and we're only going to charge them 1% tax.
So don't worry about it. It's not a problem.
It's not your issue. Now it's a wage tax.
They've extended that. That's the kind of, well, I guess we could say bracket creep, because that's a part of it as well.
You know, taxing you on their inflation, getting you into higher and higher tax brackets, even though you're not making any more money.
Kavanaugh emphasized the plaintiffs had failed to show how the repatriation tax was different from other pieces of tax law, dealing with issues like partnerships and foreign profits.
See? That's it. How's it different from these other ones?
Oh, well, we want to keep all of them there, so forget about it, even if it's based on a fiction that you are going to be taxed on income you haven't received.
He said the Constitution does not require fiscal calamity.
No, it just requires that you do what it says.
And if that results in fiscal calamity because you've got an unconstitutional system, so be it.
Pragmatism. See, what was it I said in response to Scott Adams when he said, these freedom lovers are looking more and more like sociopaths.
I said, you pragmatists, you people who represent yourself as pragmatists, you pragmatists are looking more and more like totalitarians.
The majority skirted the bigger question of whether Congress has the power to tax unrealized income, with Kavanaugh stressing in a footnote that his analysis didn't address the distinct issues that would be raised if the government tries to impose a levy on wealth or assets that have gone up in value.
Brown Jackson specifically wants that to happen.
Yeah, yeah. So, we're going to take a break.
When we come back, we're going to talk about guns on YouTube.
They want to take them down, take down all these gun videos, or make them inaccessible to people unless they log in, and, you know, you've got to be over 18 and all the rest of this stuff.
So, yeah, my son said, when they said, well, get rid of about a third of the tax code, my son said, well, that'd fix about a third of it then.
Stephen Kaspar. Maybe that's how we could stop all the wars.
Turn to the internet. Turn off the internet.
Yeah, turn it off. That's right.
Quite frankly, you know, when we look at this system that we've got, I don't see any way that it's really going to ultimately be defeated, except without absolute and total chaos.
It's going to be...
You're going to have to completely, in order to stop this surveillance state, biometric surveillance state, something's going to have to happen.
To completely shut down the internet.
The internet is the backbone of this thing.
It was designed by a psychologist at DARPA, JCR Glitter, in the 60s when it became practical in the 90s.
They created the venture capital firms to put all these companies in control.
It's going to have to be something like that.
It is a Trojan horse and always has been.
In the same way that everything that the federal government does is pretty much based on bribery and blackmail from the Federal Reserve fiat currency.
It's going to be a big hardship for us to lose the internet.
It's going to be a big hardship for us to lose the dollar as a reserve currency.
But in the long run, it'd be the best thing that could ever happen to us, quite frankly.
If we lose the reserve currency, again, it's going to be a lot of economic hardship.
But that is the superpower of this Leviathan government.
That is at war with us and is right now the beast of Babylon.
Jason Barger, can we civil asset forfeiture of the White House since we found coke in there twice in the past year?
Well, yes. Under those laws, that's exactly what they would do.
But we don't have equal protection of the law.
The laws do not apply to Democrats, especially the Bidens.
DGA, sadly, Trump is a huge advocate for civil asset forfeiture.
That's right. Whether or not it's in this country, as I said, we're going to take the oil.
We're there. We're going to take the oil.
That's kind of a civil asset forfeiture thing.
It's piracy. It's theft.
It's what he supports.
California Sheriff's Department says ON61 have police gangs infused within them.
I wouldn't be surprised. Maragon, your property is guilty until proven innocent.
Yeah, and you're going to have to prove it innocent by suing them.
Stephen Kaspar, when I think of cops now, I remember all the videos of them busting heads and pointing ARs at people trying to run their small business during COVID. Mm-hmm.
Jason Barker, the Supreme Court is only an opinion.
It carries no constitutional authority.
The supremacy clause was self-proclaimed.
Thus, it's not legitimate because that power was not enumerated by the states.
That's exactly right.
And until we get rid of this idea of judicial supremacy, we're done.
We didn't need to have Alito.
I'm glad that he did it.
We didn't need to have him write the Dobbs decision to know that the Supreme Court had no business deciding when life begins.
They have no business deciding what marriage is.
That belongs to the states.
And, you know, when you talk about the marriage decision, for example...
There had been efforts in every single state to legalize homosexual marriage, and it had failed in every single state.
In California, you had Tim Cook spending millions of his own money and putting Apple there to give matching contributions for anybody who contributed to establish gay marriage in California, and it still failed in California.
It failed everywhere. And there were some places where marriage was defined in the state constitution.
They took it to the Supreme Court to override all of that stuff.
It shows how dangerous this idea of judicial supremacy is.
I don't care what you think about homosexual marriage.
Just take a look at how they violated the people The power of the people that was reserved to them under the Tenth Amendment.
Look at how they reserved the power of the people and the power of the state in homosexual marriage.
And it shows you just how wrong it is.
And when people saw the Alito decision on Roe v.
Wade, they said, well, it's going to be coming for homosexual marriage because it's the same principle that's there.
If you don't strongly resemble a bitter old man at this point, you aren't paying attention.
Or you don't care.
That's even worse. I look at these people.
I even had Kel McBreen, who still works at InfoWars.
I always had a good relationship with Kel McBreen.
It really amazed me when I put up the stuff about, you know, well, it's just sugar, water, and everything.
And he put a comment under there once.
He put, mwah, mwah, mwah.
Like, I'm a crying baby?
Are you kidding me? That SOB that you're working for, I didn't even know that he was doing that when I was there.
I said he did it once when I was on air, right as we were going off.
And it's like, wow. But I was told by people he's doing it.
It's like, no, he's not doing that.
But he did it. And you see that?
And your response is to just say, well, yeah, crybaby about all this stuff.
You better believe I cry about that.
You better be crying about the people that were pressured into taking this stuff, that were killed, that were crippled.
How in the world can you not be bothered by that?
That's why I played several of those yesterday.
We can't forget about this.
We can't sweep this under.
Just like Tim Pool. Well, that was so four years ago.
Let's talk about the election that was four years ago, he says.
Immediately goes into, well, yeah, but he was cheated four years ago.
You cheated people out of their lives.
And you're cheering the man who did it.
You're an accessory to that.
ON61, the Supreme Court's upholding our rights to sleep on the sidewalks.
Go for it, dudes.
Yeah, that's really important in the future.
If these guys get their way, we'll all need those Supreme Court rights to sleep on the sidewalk.
That's just the way it's...
They're looking out for us.
They know it's coming, and they're going to prepare this for us.
So I have some place to sleep on the sidewalk.
AP Rumble Seed. U.S. is done if we sit back and don't take action locally.
Yes, to get our own people in instead of these hybrid inbred elites.
By his love. So this is so depressing.
Unrealized gain, like arresting someone who might commit a crime.
Yeah, or stealing property of somebody who is not even accused of a crime.
Yeah, this is the legal fiction that these people are involved in.
If you're going to do civil asset forfeiture, why not tax unrealized gain?
Right? It's of the same type of principle that we have operating here.
We're going to take a quick break and we'll be right back.
I'm dying.
you They created Common Core to dumb down our children.
They created Common Past to track and control us.
Their Commons Project to make sure the commoners own nothing.
And the communist future.
They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary.
But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God.
That is what we have in common.
That is what they want to take away.
Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation.
They desire to know everything about us while they hide everything from us.
It's time to turn that around and expose what they want to hide.
Please share the information and links you'll find at TheDavidKnightShow.com Thank you for listening. Thank you for sharing.
If you can't support us financially, please keep us in your prayers.
TheDavidKnightShow.com Well, I'm David Knight.
I'm a lawyer.
Well, I...
I had some fun a couple of days ago.
I meant to talk about this yesterday, but I didn't get around to it.
These idiots who decided that they would spray Stonehenge orange just before the pagan summer solstice.
What we have here, folks...
What we have here is a competition between two pagan religions.
You've got the religion of Gaia, and you've got the Druids, and they're stepping on each other's toes.
That is something funny to watch, actually.
What was even funnier about this, as you look at these people, look at this.
They've got this fire extinguisher, orange stuff, and as he's running, it's blowing back in his face.
I said, these people are so stupid.
These climate idiots are so stupid.
They're supposed to be experts on weather and climate, and they can't even tell which way the wind's blowing.
If they're gonna do this, get on the other side and run in, or wait till you get up there.
I mean, it's just ridiculous.
And then what do they have for security?
They've got some five-foot-tall woman who is trying, don't do that, don't do that!
Now they sit down.
And now this other guy picks it up.
And they say, please don't do that.
Isn't that an amazing picture?
How helpless we have become to do anything about this.
I mean, you know, there are some times when you just need a big guy that's just going to beat the crap out of these people for doing something like that instead of a woman running out there five foot tall.
It's like, please don't do that. Please don't do that.
It's just disgusting to see this.
But, you know, Stonehenge is a really strange thing, frankly.
But before I say anything about that, these same people then, okay, followed up.
They went to a secure airport.
This is a private airport.
You know, Air Force One doesn't come into Heathrow and things like that, the big public airports.
They go to this private airport.
It's got security all around it and everything.
And so these elites with their private jets...
Air Force One, all the rest of them, they go to this particular jet.
Well, Taylor Swift was flying into there.
So they wanted to paint Taylor Swift's plane orange as well.
And so they took pictures of themselves using a metal grinder to get through the fence and all the rest of the stuff.
They got in and they sprayed a couple of planes.
They didn't know which one was Taylor Swift.
They didn't get her plane. It's the gang that can't shoot straight or can't paint straight, I guess, is what the deal is with them.
We had an experience with Stonehenge when we went to the UK on our honeymoon in January of 1980.
It was very cold.
Nobody was out there. Back then, they didn't have ropes and stuff to supposedly keep you away from it.
You used to walk right up. You could touch it if you wanted to.
Now everything has gotten so special.
It's just disgusting. It's so depressing to go back to Florida and to go to Daytona Beach, where we used to be able to drive cars up and down the beach.
That's why I show them that bumper, what it was like all my life before I moved away, before everybody got so special about the beach.
They used to race cars.
This is where the Daytona 500 came from.
It was originally a race that had one leg down the beach, another one down the highway, I think, is A1A. On the two sides where they connected those two, they had really soft sand, which was a really difficult thing to navigate.
But anyway, that's where the original car races began.
Didn't destroy the beach.
Racing cars on it.
When I was always going there, they had speed limits.
You couldn't go more than... You know, 10 miles an hour or something like that.
But they would let you drive on it, and everybody was parking their cars out there.
A lot of them could not believe how far the tide would come in.
So they'd park their cars there and go into the boardwalk, and they'd come out and find that their car was submerged in salt water.
And they had people who made a pretty good living pulling people out as the water was coming in.
But anyway, you're not even allowed.
Not even allowed. They've just killed it completely, Daytona Beach.
And I guess it's the same way with Stonehenge.
But when we were there, there was nobody at all.
This cold winter morning, and nobody at all there.
And we take this bus out there, and we get off.
And it's on the Plain of Salisbury, which is a little bit of a rise where they built this thing.
But, you know, no trees or anything for a long way.
And so you're just out there.
And... Karen really got creeped out by it.
It did feel weird. I don't know if there's something going on there or what it is.
But it did feel weird. And she was describing that to...
This has always been a running family joke.
She was describing it to a friend of ours, and she said, oh, I hated it.
There was no place to hide.
And he's like, no place to hide?
What do you mean by that? He said, yeah, that's the first thing I look for when I go anywhere is, where can I hide?
But it was, anyway, Stonehenge was a strange place, but these people are even stranger and more superstitious than anything that ever happened there.
Meanwhile, we got Elon Musk saying that his Neuralink brain implant will replace phones.
Who needs to worry about cell phones creating tumors in your brain?
He'll make a tumor with his neural link right there.
Just put threads into your brain.
You've already got the beginning of a tumor.
My son says, well, the main thing all the members of your organization have in common is that they're gullible enough to fall for the climate propaganda to an extreme extent.
Don't expect any confidence from these people.
Yeah, that's right. They really don't know which way the wind is blowing.
So, yeah, isn't that amazing?
And don't you think it's totally worth it to have an operation and to put something with, like, wires sticking down in your brain so that you can control your mouse with your thoughts or so that you can make a phone call with your thoughts?
It's so 2020 to have a cell phone that you actually hold in your hand or something, isn't it?
I mean, you want to have that direct knurling thing.
Yeah. He's still looking for that killer app.
Or maybe he does have it.
Maybe that implant thing is a killer app.
I don't know, but that's the most ridiculous thing I've seen.
And yet, even as he's saying that you could use Neuralink, his Neuralink, to make phone calls, he's warning people about electronic voting machines.
Well, I absolutely agree, and I've been talking about that for a long time before the MAGA crowd discovered it.
I said, I'd been talking about it in terms of local elections.
We'd covered local elections where there was concern about the auditing process under the Texas Constitution.
You're supposed to have images that are preserved of this stuff, but we had the guy who ran the Board of Elections, somebody that Rick Perry brought in from Hillary Clinton's Rose law firm.
It wasn't her law firm, but she worked for it.
I brought this guy in and put him in charge of the Board of Elections.
And he would, every year, every election year, he would send out stuff to all of the different boards of elections of the county levels and tell them to ignore the Texas Constitution that says you've got to keep a visual image of this stuff.
Ah, don't worry about that this year.
And every year he would do that.
And so, yeah, when I went to talk to him...
You know, yeah, sure, he'll come down.
You know, press here to talk to him.
He starts coming down the steps, and I've got the microphone with a flag on it saying, you know, I'm away.
And he sees that, and he goes, no, no, no.
And he goes back up to the steps, and he runs away.
That's the story of my life, I guess.
Anyway, the...
I can't get anybody to talk to me.
I can't get on YouTube, any of these places.
But, no, he understands...
The problem with these electronic voting machines, he said the risk of being hacked by humans or AI, while small, is still too high.
And of course, the most recent one of these is in Puerto Rico.
And the vote counts that were happening there, they're reviewing their contract with Dominion after a software issue caused machines supplied by Dominion to miscalculate vote totals.
The vote counts, according to the AP, Associated Propaganda, vote counts reported by Dominion machines were lower than paper counts in some cases.
And some machines reversed totals or reported zero votes for some candidates.
Oh, wow. No problem there.
I'm sure it's just a little bit of a software problem, don't you think?
Um... I said, and I'd been covering this topic for quite some time.
I had talked about how outrageous it was that we're still, that they're adding these electronic voting machines in.
I said, you realize One of the first companies, Smartmatic, was created in Venezuela by three pals of Hugo Chavez so they could rig the election, and they rigged every election from there on for Hugo Chavez.
And then when they started selling Smartmatic in other countries, we had, just like you're seeing here in Puerto Rico, they had big controversies and lawsuits and legislative hearings about how it was all wrong.
The vote tolls were wrong for particular elections.
That happened in the Philippines.
It happened in Brazil.
It happened in Mexican provinces and everything.
Now we got Puerto Rico we can add to it.
And Puerto Rico did this test, and they said, this is so messed up, I think we're not going to use this stuff.
Just go back to paper ballots and election observers.
Both parties in Puerto Rico reported hundreds of ballots showing inaccurate results, They had over 700 errors that was reported by one political party.
The other political party pointed to 350 discrepancies.
These inaccuracies affected ballots for positions including governor, mayor, and resident commissioner, all up and down the ballot.
And as Elon Musk pointed out, the chances of it being hacked or having softwares are just...
Oh, even though they are rare, right?
Rare. It's kind of like a Boeing 737 MAX. Hey, we only had two of these things crash out of 8,200, but that's too, too many, and same thing with this.
Following the discrepancies, the Elections Commission conducted a full vote tally, and they audited paper receipts from hundreds of ballot-counting machines, after which Ombudsman Edwin Feliciano called the incident a threat to To the island's electoral system.
That was his word. A threat.
And he called on the governor and the island's federal control board that oversees the island's finances to establish a plan to improve election security.
Let me just say one more thing.
With all of the back and forth that was done by all these idiots chasing their tail to try to get Trump into the White House again, it's a very simple thing that could be done.
You know, we have one organization that does exit polls.
Everywhere. For every news organization.
And so, this one organization does all the exit polling.
And they give this, you know, we hear the news reported from ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox News, CNN, all the rest of the stuff.
They're all getting it from the same company.
Now, this same company, when, you know, they're doing the exit polling...
They'll ask people information about them.
You know, male or female?
Or are you some other gender? You know, they'll ask them this kind of stuff.
And they might ask them some stuff about their education.
We always see this reported in these exit polls.
They will always give us these demographic cross-tabulations.
Well, people who are middle class with a college education went for candidate A more than went for candidate B, that type of thing.
You've seen that over and over again, right?
Why don't they ever tell you the full information?
Just instead of breaking it down by demographic cross tabs, tell me when you did your exit polling how it worked out for candidate A and candidate B overall.
They know that. They know that.
But they only give you the demographic tabulation.
See, our State Department, when it looks at whether or not it was a legitimate election, they look at the exit polls versus the reported results.
And if they differ by more than five percentile points, they say the election was rigged.
If you want to know if the American election is rigged, it's a very simple solution.
You just subpoena that company that did the exit polls.
I've been saying this from the very beginning.
You want to show whether or not this is a rigged election in 2020?
Use the same standard that the State Department uses for foreign elections.
Subpoena this company and say, show us your exit totals, your exit poll totals for these different places, and let's total them up and see how they compare.
It's real simple, but they won't do that, right?
They won't do that because they want to have it.
They don't want honest elections.
They want elections that they can win, elections that they can steal.
And we're seeing that with the Trump organization as well.
He doesn't care about the electronic stuff.
I said in 2016, I said, the next election, 2020, I said it's going to be a hacking contest.
Well, I was wrong.
Because not even in my wildest dreams did I ever think that anybody would be stupid enough to do a vote-by-mail election.
Oh, but Trump was.
Trump was. And so, pal, you were hoisted by your own petard, unless you were told to do that.
Unless you're told to hand the baton over to Biden.
It was the dumbest thing I've ever seen in my life.
The House is probing NewsGuard.
And again, this is going to be James Comer.
He's going to be doing what Jim Jordan always does.
Preening for the cameras.
Virtue signaling for the cameras.
A lot of storm and fury signifying nothing.
It's just going to be a reality TV show.
They have powers to do something about this, but they won't do it.
And this long article from Children's Health Defense goes to the fact that we all know that NewsGuard is operating as a puppet, as a surrogate for the government.
And not only that, we know which part of the government is doing it.
We know that it's being done by the Department of Defense.
By the State Department. Now, this article doesn't talk about DARPA, but DARPA is heavily involved in this.
It's not just NewsGuard, but it's also ElectionGuard.
Both of those were being run through Microsoft.
ElectionGuard, its sole grant to get started, was $10 million that DARPA gave to Microsoft.
Microsoft gave to ElectionGuard.
It was DARPA that's running it.
They're just using Microsoft as a beard.
And I've said that since 2018.
I said, you know, this is all coming from the government.
And just to reinforce it, we got censored in August 6th of 2018, took down all the social media.
But then in October, just a couple of weeks before the election, the midterm elections for Trump in 2018, just before that, they took down 800 sites.
You know, things like Free Thought Project and stuff like that.
Free Thought Project didn't support Trump.
I had the editor on.
We talked about it.
The common thread was not whether or not they liked Trump.
It was the thing that got these people taken down, was that they opposed the police state.
They opposed the surveillance state.
They opposed the foreign wars that never end.
That was what the common thread was.
And so you can look at that and you can say, well, then I think I know.
We know who's funding Election Guard.
I think we probably know who's doing News Guard.
And now since then, people have done some research and they've found that, yes, in fact, News Guard is being paid for by the Pentagon.
When all this stuff happened in 2020, I said it's medical martial law.
And it's true. They used the medical health, the Gesundheit Führers, as Eric Peters calls them.
They used them to enforce this stuff.
But folks, it was martial law.
All this stuff, the first germ game, it was the CIA, it was the Department of Defense.
These are the people who are running it along with Fauci's people and Johns Hopkins and stuff like that.
But it is, it's full-on martial law.
It's coming from the Pentagon.
It was planned, rehearsed by the Pentagon.
They were the ones rolling it.
They weren't just there to deliver the jabs.
The whole thing was a military operation, Operation Warp Speed.
So, again, NewsGuard is a beard for all this.
And they claim that they're going through and looking at different journalist organizations and giving them what they call nutrition labels.
And they sell those nutrition labels to advertisers to say, well, it's not safe to advertise on the David Knight Show.
Right? It works out that way.
And so, in a letter to NewsGuard, the CEO Stephen Brill and Gordon Krovitz, Congressman Comer, who's going to be running this dog and pony show, Highlighted federal funding that NewsGuard receives and possible actions being taken to suppress accurate information.
Well, we know that.
NewsGuard knows that.
You know that, Comer.
Do something. For once, will any of these Republicans do something?
Will they pass a law to stop this covert collusion?
No. You know that this money has...
They've now uncovered these contracts.
They know the money was paid to NewsGuard and so forth.
So pass a law and just say that if this is an organization that has been operating on behalf of the Pentagon to label people as false, which is essentially censorship by proxy.
So if you're going to use your organization censorship by proxy, you take those millions or billions of dollars, whatever it is, and you return it to the government along with a penalty.
And you shut that down.
You could do that.
I could also pass a law saying that you're not going to be allowed to covertly use a private company.
And they're not even very good at hiding it.
They don't even care. We're good to go.
And so what they're going to do is take narratives that they didn't like, narratives about the phony pandemic and all the rest of the stuff, or about the bioweapon vaccine.
Anybody that says something about that, we're going to look for those search terms, and we've got the database here.
We find somebody like that.
We're going to shut them down and label these people.
I really do think that this is probably at the...
At the base of what has happened to me with this show.
I was shut down in May of 2021 by PayPal, by Venmo, these other people like that.
YouTube continually shuts me down, always, as soon as I get on there.
So, when we look at what is happening, what is ultimately coming from the Pentagon, martial law, it really is fascism, folks.
It is a public-private partnership.
You know, you got the Pentagon paying money to these companies.
NewsGuard is making a profit selling this stuff to advertisers.
But it's a merger between them.
And it is covert censorship that's not even a secret.
So they worked with the Global Engagement Center to brand numerous accounts that posted, quote, legitimate and accurate COVID-19 updates.
They labeled them as Russia-linked.
It's intended to covertly suppress speech, said a lawsuit from the New Civil Liberties Alliance.
Those are the people that helped with the Bumpstock case.
Michael Cargill, the New Civil Liberties Alliance.
I should contact them and see if they can find out something about this PayPal thing.
I'd like to nail those people to the wall.
Anyway, one journalist, Paul Thacker, said, These groups add nothing to the public discourse except shutting down journalism and silencing people from voicing an opinion.
Society doesn't need hall monitors telling us where we can and cannot go.
Jeffrey Tucker at Brownstone Institute said, These groups are there to censor us, to discredit us, basically.
That's their power. And that's supposed to make me afraid, he said.
But it doesn't. He told the defender that this is Children's Health Defense.
He told them that his interactions with NewsGuard and, of course, Guard Goldsmith has had interactions with NewsGuard.
And he's got a comment here about the Supreme Court, I see.
But, you know, he's talked...
To me, he's mentioned it publicly as well, how much time he spends trying to satisfy NewsGuard.
And he knows, just like Jeffrey Tucker knows, that they're not sincere in their concerns.
But you go through the paperwork, and hopefully, you know, if you push back, but you've got to spend a lot of time to keep them from shutting you down.
Tucker said, Jeffrey Tucker said, News Guard has been a constant and censorious annoyance from the very beginning of our operations.
He set up Brownstone.
He said, at first I attempted to engage earnestly.
I spent hours on the phone with their reporters and researchers, and I attempted to answer every inquiry.
I did this because Brownstone strongly believes in accuracy and truth, whatever it is.
So, of course, I believe that we would pass whatever tests they offered up.
Over time, it became clear that they already had their agenda and their conclusion, and there never really was a point to wasting an instant of time with this organization.
They appear to be objective organizations, but then it turns out they've got their own source of funding, the government, the Pentagon, and they've got strong biases, and their purpose is censorship.
That's their goal.
Surreptitious censorship.
I said, for the longest time, all this stuff is happening.
Oh, well, you know, these are just corporations.
And we'd have organizations like Reason and Cato Institute and the Heritage Foundation, the biggest conservative think tank.
They'd say, well, this is a private company and they can do whatever they want.
I remember John Stossel saying, well, I really don't like what they're doing and they're banning me everywhere.
But, you know, hey, they're a private corporation.
That's my principle. A private corporation can do whatever they want.
I said, don't you realize they're doing this for the government?
Don't you realize that they've got this velvet glove?
This is a private organization, and we should be able to do what we want.
That's their velvet glove, and inside of it is the iron fist of government.
This is a Big Brother thing.
You can't see that?
It's absolutely amazing.
And they said that up until the point that the Twitter files were released, and it was like, wow, who knew?
Who knew about that?
Yeah. Michelle Obama, is there unrealized gain regarding gold?
Well, no. At this point in time, what they, or stocks, Biden and Elizabeth Warren would like to do that sort of thing.
Now, they're going to tell you that's only for people who got a net worth of $100 million or more.
So, if they were to get that through, and it's still not certain whether or not they would get through, there's four people in this decision that made it clear they would not support a tax, an outright tax on wealth.
But then they need to get either Kavanaugh or Roberts on their side to have a 5-4 decision.
So that remains to be seen whether or not they would approve a wealth tax.
When the wealth tax comes in, the wealth tax will be, if it comes in, it'll be done like the income tax.
The income tax was only a tax on income.
Wages were not income.
Wages did not become income until they said it was, until the IRS made it income.
During World War II, they had a temporary wage tax during World War II, but it was supposed to end after World War II. That's why, for years, you would get the IRS tax forms that they would mail out to you.
And on it, there'd be a message from the IRS commissioner, thank you for participating in this voluntary income tax.
Well, you know, that was the cynical way, just like they call it civil asset forfeiture.
It's not, you know, they use the civil system because they're not passing a law.
It's not forfeiture, it's theft.
You know, they use these types of taxes.
For varications and labels to get what they want.
But they just kept enforcing it.
Bottom line is that once they do it, if it passes the Supreme Court some kind of a wealth test, they will only do it for people who have $100 million or more wealth.
They will then start bringing that down pretty rapidly, but it'll be a period of time before they do that.
But if it is gold, do they know you've got it?
Now, they might do that with Bitcoin, but I don't know about gold.
Do they know that you've got the...
You know, Bitcoin is not anonymous, you know.
But once you get the gold, I must have fallen out of the fishing boat with my bump stock or something.
I don't know. Jason Barker, do I get credit for unrealized losses?
No, it won't work that way, of course.
The plan is that if you win, they win.
If you lose, you lose.
That's right. He says, I've talked about this, and if they tax unrealized gains, Then there's no reason to invest, and the stock rollercoaster will die overnight.
Well, that wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing.
That stock rollercoaster has given unlimited amounts of capital to these big corporations so they can operate as if they were getting money from the Federal Reserve.
It's the same type of thing. You just have to find a greater fool.
And so it allows these companies...
I know that because we operated...
For about 15 years against Blockbuster Video.
And then even after we sold and got out of the business, they went on for like another 10 or 15 years.
And they never made any money.
You know, they're making a lot of money when Wayne Huizinga bought it.
But when the studio bought it, when you had Sumner Redstone with Viacom that owns Paramount and all that.
And when they bought Blockbuster, they never made a dime.
They lost money every single time.
But they were getting funded by the stock market even though the the marketplace Was not giving them money the stock marketplace was so guard goldsmith is SCOTUS decision on the more case the taxing unrealized gains is The poison cherry on the poison tax Sunday. Yeah, so by the way Did you see how?
Blackrock has bought the debt of Ukraine a large portion and the US now will use the interest on frozen Russian assets to give Ukraine loans All of it to benefit BlackRock.
I saw that.
I didn't see the BlackRock connection, but I did see that they said, oh yeah, we will give the interest on this stuff.
Actually, that was all that Europe wanted to sign up for, and it was about $3 billion a year.
And then Biden said, no, we want to hit the principal as well.
So they came up with a compromise of $50 billion, which was Taking some of the principle as well as some of this interest stuff.
It's all corrupted. Ukraine is just a money laundering operation for people like the Bidens.
That's all it is. But of course, it's also their ticket into World War III. Princess Wrong Thing says, Trump said he won't tax tips.
That means we'll probably get the carbon tax.
Yeah, they'll do it somewhere.
Yeah. Maragon, I miss the tree huggers.
These new age environmentalists aren't very intelligent.
Yeah, and they are a lot more destructive.
I don't know, if you were a lumberjack out there and you hit one of these things that they put inside the tree, that could be very dangerous to you.
Brightfingers. Are these folks future Weather Underground folks?
Or are they too soft for that?
I think they're too soft for it.
But, of course, the Weather Underground really wasn't all that intelligent either.
You know, they blew themselves up and had a lot of mistakes with it.
But Bernadine Dorn and...
What's his name? They got out of it.
You know, he had protection from above, and then he started getting into education, got really dangerous.
The Stonehenge protesters are pissing into the wind.
That's Timo, too. Yeah, you're right.
Syrian girl, if we don't bring God into this fight, we have no chance for success.
There are many people pointing out the corruption, but no one has any ideas of how to end it.
Yeah. It's like Chesterton said, what is wrong with the world?
I am. Unless we recover that, unless we look at the loss of the moral foundation, we don't have a chance of doing anything with this.
Everybody's just going to be operating in their own perceived self-interest, just like Trump.
We'll have a government full of Trump people, or people just like him.
Jason Barker, brain chip cell phone is a disaster waiting to happen.
I foresee many drunk dials to ex-girlfriends.
Ha ha ha ha ha!
Absolutely right. Well, we're going to take a quick break, and when we come back, we're going to talk about a new ministry that has been set up just to change the behavior of men.
Isn't that interesting? Finally, the mask comes off of that aspect of it as well.
We'll be right back.
♪♪♪
You're welcome.
I'm sorry.
Making sense.
Comment again. You're listening to The David Knight Show.
Well, I want to talk about what is happening with the Ministry of Changing Men's Behavior.
Changing Men's Behavior Doesn't this sound like something from Monty Python?
I'm sorry, this is the Department of Arguments.
If you want to change men's behavior, you've got to go down two doors to the left.
This is where these people are.
They have become something of a parody, nevertheless.
Before we get into it, I just want to thank Adam, who left a tip on Subscribestar.
Thank you very much. I appreciate that.
He heard the money meter is running low, hurting this month.
I've listened to you since 2016.
Followed you over from Infowars and could sense all that you sensed before the firing.
I no longer listen to them.
I've heard from my friends.
It's as outlandish as ever.
Keep up the good fight.
My wife and my prayers are with you.
Thank you very much. I appreciate that.
And folks, we really could use the support this month.
Things are really slow.
So, I know it's a difficult time for everybody.
If you've got...
Brother, can you spare a coffee cup?
You know, that's one of the... One of the fundraising things is buy me a coffee.
We don't do that, but we do have some other ones.
And if you want to know how you can support us and where you can find the show, go to TheDavidKnightShow.com.
You can see where you can find the show live, where you can find the video archives.
And we usually pull out a couple of clips each day as well as the full show that's there.
And then we also have the podcasts, and we have links to a lot of those different podcasts.
It can be very hard to find the podcast.
They make it hard to find. By the way, if you like the show, wherever you see it, especially if it's on a podcast, it would help us a great deal.
So, you know, hopefully...
Unless they've done a number on us, that would help people to find us.
But we never know. Maybe they have done a number on it.
But if you would like the podcast, that helps a great deal.
And that doesn't cost anything.
But if you'd like to support us, there's links there as to where and how you can support us as well.
Let's talk. So we've got B Slice is now a monthly supporter on Rumble.
Thank you very much. I appreciate that.
Let's talk a little bit about this.
Ministry of Changing Men's Behavior.
This is coming out of Australia.
But folks, this is global.
And there is this Zero Hedge article.
Whoever wrote it really nailed the essence of what all this stuff is about.
They pointed out that if you want to develop a totalitarian global government, you've got to come against the groups that are going to oppose you.
Well, who's that likely going to be?
Well, you've got to attack and cripple the largest subset of the population that is going to be most likely to give you problems in the future if you're a tyrant.
Which monolithic group is more likely to fight back against the system?
Well, obviously the answer is masculine men.
And so if the government makes masculine men the problem, and they say that they're doing it in order to protect women, oh, they are advocates for women.
Well, now their tyranny is clothed in compassion, isn't it?
In recent years, Australia has been at the forefront of many authoritarian experiments.
We saw this through the amazingly insane attacks, the way they attacked people who weren't wearing masks or meeting in public and that sort of thing.
Some of the worst that I've seen came out of Australia.
That's why it's not surprising at all that the premier of the Australian state of Victoria has created a new ministry tasked with the purpose of changing and perhaps even controlling men.
It's called the Parliamentary Secretary.
The office is the Parliamentary Secretary for Men's Behavior Change.
That's what they actually call it.
Isn't this Orwellian? Isn't this amazing?
Look at the picture of this guy.
Scroll that down a little bit there.
Look at him. Now, if you want to get somebody who's going to shut down masculinity, wouldn't you pick this guy?
He's a very poster child for a non-masculine man, isn't he?
The appointment was in response to the Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese, also allegedly a man, calling for gender-based violence, not calling for it, but calling it a national crisis and promising greater government action.
They said, well, first Australia banned guns for violent crime.
Now they're just blaming men in general.
Mainstream media claims a new effort is in response to a crisis of sexist violence against women.
The problem is they don't have any data that shows this.
Hospital records for assaults and homicides in Australia show a steady decline among men and women in the past two decades.
They also show that men are much more likely to face victimization compared to women.
Oh, so you got these girly men.
You've got enough girly men like Tim Richardson, the MP, that's going to be the secretary for men's behavior change.
So I guess, you know, they're getting beat up by women all the time.
He's got a woman there standing by his side that's his master, I guess.
But anyway, the number of violent crimes have gone down, and there's been more against men than against women.
Tim Richardson, this guy that they picked, suggested that his role will focus primarily on the internet.
Who would have imagined that?
Right? This whole thing is set up as propaganda and censorship.
To control speech on the web in order to prevent toxic male behavior.
Again, as I point out, all Western nations have been doing this.
It's almost like it's some kind of a conspiracy, isn't it?
They all do the same thing at exactly the same time.
That's why I say, even though this is happening in Australia, you can expect this from a government near you at some point in time.
The use of feminism is necessary to fabricate a rationale.
They can't merely attack men for being men.
They can't attack men for being potentially rebellious.
So they have to have a victim out there that they can say they're protecting.
We are an advocate for...
Fill in the blank. Right?
That's the way it always works. You know, in the early days of shutting down infrastructure, well, we're advocating for the snail darter, right?
I didn't know men could violently assault women over the internet, says my son.
Yeah. Speech is violence.
Didn't you know that? That's what they keep telling everybody.
Speech is violence.
That's what they claim.
So, the totalitarians become the good guys.
They become the advocates to protect women.
The establishment's obsession with the cult of transsexualism is proof that their insistence that women are nothing more than a social construct.
And it can be replaced by mentally ill men in wigs and makeup.
It leaves little doubt that femininity is being targeted nearly as much as masculinity.
Yeah, that's right. It definitely is.
Well, when we look at how this is rolling out in one tribe in the Amazon, is the internet the problem?
Well, yes it is, but in a different way than they're telling people.
Here's a remote tribe in the Amazon, and they got connected to the internet via Starlink.
They're going to run out expensive cable or fiber optics to them, but now with...
Starlink, they can get the internet to people who have never had it before.
So, they donate some equipment and get these people connected to the internet.
And what did they find? Well, they found that it is tearing apart the social fabric of that society.
Now, everybody just wants to sit around and play with social media and watch porn.
That's what's happened. Even to a society where they used to be self-sufficient, you bring in the internet and now they're hooked on social media and porn.
I think the Amish got it right.
I just keep coming back to the Amish.
They had a tremendous amount of discernment to understand where you got to cut the cord here.
A reclusive tribe in the Amazon finally got hooked to the internet.
Thanks to Elon Musk, only to be torn apart by social media and pornography addiction, complained the elders.
Brazil's 2000 member Marubo tribe has been left bitterly divided by the arrival of Starlink nine months ago.
When it arrived, everybody was happy, said a 73-year-old to the New York Times, but now things have gotten worse.
Young people have gotten lazy because of the internet, and they're learning the ways of the white people.
The Marubo are a chaste tribe who even frown upon kissing in public.
You know, that was kind of like my tribe of...
Of Christians, I'm always growing up.
Alfredo said, many young Marubo men have been sharing porn videos and group chats, and he's already observed more aggressive sexual behavior in some of them.
Yeah, that was always the argument with Hollywood, you know, well, we're just reflecting society.
No, you are directing society.
Everyone is connected.
That everyone is so connected that sometimes they don't even talk to their own family.
Well, just wait until they give them some cell phones.
Then they definitely won't be talking to their family.
In the village, if you don't hunt fish and plant, you don't eat.
Now, some young people maintain our traditions, said a 42-year-old man.
Others just want to spend the whole afternoon on their phones.
And that's what is happening everywhere.
Here in Tennessee, we got internet, unfortunately.
And so now what we have is the next step that the tribe in the Amazon have not reached yet.
Furries, furries in Tennessee.
They will have a float in the Nashville Pride Parade.
We are so proud to be doing this again.
If you guys remember from last year, we made international news and we were seen by Jill Biden.
Isn't that great? It's a group called Murfrees Furs.
I guess they're out of Murfreesboro.
Well, now every furry group in Tennessee is joining us.
We are sponsoring and paying for everyone to get involved with it.
Wait, paying? Who's paying?
Who's picking up the tab?
You think these furries are independently wealthy, or they got a sugar daddy like Soros somewhere pushing this kind of subversion?
That's what it is, it's subversion.
We can't wait to see the fandom united under a beautiful cause.
What is the cause? I guess the question is, what causes this kind of mental disturbance?
It's the internet. It's things like that.
And it is pushing them towards living in a virtual reality.
We're going to spend all their time.
Ready Player One, you know?
Spielberg did the movie from the book.
You know, they live in a little tin shed, and they've got some kind of a VR thing that they can walk on in any direction, endless treadmill type of thing, and a VR headset, and that's their life.
That's their existence. Just like what's happening to these people in this Amazon tribe.
They're catching on to that real fast, aren't they?
Well, they used to hunt and fish and grow food.
They had families. They talked to each other.
Now they just hang out on their phones and look at pornography or engage in social media.
Approximately one-third of these furries identify as exclusively heterosexual.
Furries are about five times more likely to identify as exclusively homosexual than the general population, said the site is called Furscience.com.
But according to Murfrees Furs...
They don't agree with that.
They said, no, it's not two-thirds homosexual.
They said they bragged that they're 90% homosexual.
Or at least I'll say not heterosexual.
So I don't know which of these alphabets they categorize themselves into.
Some conservative commentators have posited that soon bestiality could be normalized along with the rest of the LGBT groups.
I see it headed towards the VR thing.
That's where I see it headed.
Anyway, in Australia, parents were outraged and pulled their children out of school in April after bestiality was taught alongside LGBT curriculum.
Students say they were then given an explanation of the initials that are part of LGBTQIA +, with each word and its meaning displayed on the screen, and then there was a slide for what plus means.
And they just started randomly saying words that no one knew what they were, like bestiality.
Well, the student said that was then explained in more detail.
And the presenter seemed to imply that it was something that was practiced by people who identified as LGBTQIA+. They don't have the multiple spirits being possessed with people.
That's one of my favorite ones, the two-spirit people.
Are there only two spirits in there?
Or is it Legion?
I don't know. Have you done a head count of who's living in there with you?
CNN provides parenting advice.
What to do if your four-year-old comes out as a trans?
Well, you know what I would do?
I would find out what adult is sexually grooming them.
And report them to the government.
If the government doesn't do anything about it, I'd do something about it.
You better find out. You've got a four-year-old that's doing that, just like I played the thing the other day.
Here's $10,000, and here's an Oreo.
Which one do you want? I don't want the Oreo, you know?
That's where these kids are.
This is abuse, folks.
Why is this okay?
Why is it okay during Pride Month for...
Men to go down the street naked.
Right? We've had that report multiple times, multiple jurisdictions.
Yes, there's a man who's walking down the street naked.
Oh, where are you? Oh, well, that's the Pride Parade.
That's okay. Really?
Really? The Fragmenting Rainbow.
This is from World Magazine.
And they pointed out something that I pointed out many years ago.
I mean, you certainly can see it with the author, J.K. Rowling, of the Harry Potter stuff.
Boy, she has become persona non grata in the UK. They can't even get an actor, an actress, who will play her on a stage production about her life.
Nobody wants to have anything to do with her.
That's like the kiss of death, because you've got to bow to the trannies.
If you want to be in acting.
And so, you know, nobody wants to go anywhere near that.
I said for the longest time, I said, you look at this, this is a competition between women and between the trannies.
They really don't like each other.
I said, if you look at LGBT, there is a civil war that's developing between the L's and the T's.
Well, this World Magazine says, at the heart of the Pride's public relations problem is the inclusion of transgenderism as part of the rainbow.
These people are fighting each other.
The T's are going to be an increasing embarrassment to the LGBTs.
Because they're clearly insane.
But it also tells us something about this whole movement.
If you remember years ago when this all began, we were told there was a gay gene.
They emphasized the fact that this was biological.
And because it was biological, we had to do this and that.
Now, the teas are coming out and saying there is no such thing as biology.
There is no such thing as objectivity.
It's all just in our mind.
And so that's a big problem for the LGBTs.
That is the narrative. So what are you going to do?
I mean, about the furries, are we going to add another letter to this?
Are they going to add the F in there for the furries?
Well, what do we do as Christians?
Because that's what World Magazine is doing.
As a matter of fact, this is Carl Truman, who is writing.
He says, these things, this is touching on matters that are not merely about behavior.
But it's touching on the issues as to what it means to be human.
You know, just as we talk about this tribe in the Amazon, they get the internet and all of a sudden they don't hunt, they don't fish, they don't do anything, except look at their phone all day.
Look at porn all day.
This is about being human.
And it's also, how do we approach people?
We said we need churches...
Where those whose lives and often their bodies have been shattered by the lies of the sexual and gender revolutions can seek shelter, support, and find the offer of God's grace.
That requires a community that is marked by cheerful hospitality.
We want to be cheerful.
We want to be hospitable. We want to show God's grace.
That doesn't mean that we gloss over what sin is.
We don't change God's standard.
We say, well, whether or not you like it or I like it, that's God's standard.
But God also has another standard, and that is grace for those who follow him.
Now, it's not just merely paying lip service to it.
God's not stupid.
Why do you call me Lord and you don't do what I say?
So there is that, but we don't want to...
We have a situation where we are pushing people away.
We want to embrace them, but tell them that God is not going to be pleased if they remain as they are, that type of thing.
But, you know, hey, this is a free gift of grace.
You want to get free of this bondage that you have to this, this slavery that you have, whether it's alcohol or whether it's drugs or whether it's your sexual addictions.
You want to get free of that?
Well, there's a way to do it, but you've got to follow Christ.
It isn't an easy believism.
But if you really are a follower of Christ, you can get free of that stuff.
One last thing here.
BMW and many other corporations during Pride Month are making rainbow-colored versions of their logos.
Except in some Middle Eastern countries.
And when they were called out on that, and they asked them about this and why they're not doing it, well, the statement from BMW was very telling.
What they said was that, it was a long statement, but at the very end of it, the final paragraph said, this is an established practice of the BMW Group, which also takes into consideration market-specific legal regulations and country-specific cultural aspects.
So, we need to understand this is not a cultural war.
Culture is downstream from God and our relationship with God.
The problem is, is that here in America and in the West in general, the Christians that remain, many of them do not take this discipleship thing seriously.
They don't take God seriously.
You know, the Muslims are taking it very seriously.
They're taking it seriously enough that they will shut down BMW if BMW does this kind of thing in their society.
But we don't do that here.
And I'm not saying that that's necessarily the right approach.
I don't want the government deciding which companies can exist.
But we don't even boycott their products generally.
You saw that happen with Bud Light.
But generally, we don't boycott their products.
They just continue to do it.
We should be on the offense.
The gates of hell.
Will not stand against us if we truly are.
Well, we're going to take a quick break here, and we're going to connect with our guest, Jack Lawson.
Before we do, I want to thank Owen61.
Thank you very much for the tip.
I appreciate that. That's generous.
And Joe Nationalist, thank you as well.
He writes, in Idaho, property taxes are calculated using comparative house sale prices.
Since I built my house, it has increased in value 200%.
This is also a tax on unrealized gains.
Yeah, you're right. And where does most of the money for the property taxes get eaten up?
In the school systems.
School systems that have turned on our children and attack our children.
You need to start pushing.
We all need to start pushing Homeschooling.
If we can get enough people who are homeschooling, people are going to say, and why am I paying for these schools that I don't even want to send my kids to?
We can stop some of that waste that is there in these schools.
They're spending close to $30,000 a pupil in the big cities where they're getting the lowest test scores.
So, we're going to take a...
I said this one away before we go.
Do not obey. Climatard.
A person who believes the climate can be changed by paying a CO2 tax to the government.
I love that definition.
I've not seen that before. We're going to take a quick break, and when we come back, we're going to be talking to Jack Lawson, and he's got some interesting things to talk about.
We're going to talk about a thermobaric bomb explosion.
He said, I am one of the few humans who have witnessed one of these.
We're going to talk about that. We're going to talk about tactical nukes, World War III, how to prepare for this.
I'm even going to hit Jack with some comments from the people in Great Britain have now started looking at prepping.
Maybe the thing that woke them up was the idea that they're going to restart the draft.
It's starting to feel a bit drafty around here as we're heading into World War III, not just in the United States, but it's also in the UK and many other European countries.
People are starting to catch wind of the fact that they want to put us into World War III. And so there was an interesting article about prepping for the UK, and they only have about 15% of the people there who prep.
And I think they need to get Jack's book.
They really didn't have a clue what to do.
So we're going to take a look at that and talk about some misconceptions in that as well.
So we're going to take a quick break, and we will be right back with Jack Lawson.
Stay with us.
I'm going to be a good boy.
And now, The David Knight Show.
Joining us now is Jack Lawson, who has CivilDefenseManual.com.
Let me grab a copy of this. I always keep it right here.
Two-volume set, and you can find it at CivilDefenseManual.com.
There's a reason that Jack does this only in a physical copy.
That's what we were just talking about earlier, you know, the hacks and the vulnerability of our infrastructure, our internet, and things like that.
But Jack has something very interesting to talk about.
And so I'm going to let you roll this story out.
You know somebody that actually arrested Vladimir Putin and interrogated him.
Tell us about that. Yeah, David, I've written and published four books.
Let me give you real quick, your readers, your watchers, your listeners, an idea of my background.
I was in the American Air Force for four years.
I was an electronic specialist for missile guidance systems and a pro...
A system they called the SAFO, S-A-F-O, Nuclear Arming System.
And I did the arming package for the nuclear bomb, which I used to actually sit on top of, putting this package on.
I was also a member of...
Just like Slim Pickens and Dr.
Strangelove. Of course, they never opened the door underneath you, fortunately.
Slim Pickens' butt probably didn't glow in the dark like mine is.
I got irradiated from it.
I've got problems from it.
But I was also, after the American Air Force, I was a member of a Foreign Legion anti-terrorist rapid response unit In Africa.
And I was involved in a nasty war.
I was there for about three years.
And I've authored four books, but What you were alluding to was Colonel Sully DeFontaine.
He's in the Special Forces.
He was a member of my Special Forces chapter in Las Vegas.
But the bottom line is, the guy is in the Special Forces Hall of Fame.
I told him one time, Sully, when I see these pictures...
From the 1960s of all these diplomats and stuff.
I look real close to see if you're in the background.
He seemed to get involved in just about everything.
But in this case...
He was a Green Beret colonel, right?
He was a Green Beret colonel, and then he became the director of the Berlin Criminal Investigation Division.
Which is the Department of the Army.
And he told me this story one day.
What a character. A great man.
He was like a second father to me.
I used to sleep over to their house and his wife would make me breakfast.
And they were just great people, you know, and just very salt of the earth.
He was a Frenchman born in Brussels, but naturalized American.
Mm-hmm. Because he spoke fluent Marseille French, he had a lot of interactions with the ABC agencies.
But in Berlin, in the late 80s, they had American 10th Special Forces Group actually had people going behind the lines.
People don't know this.
Unless you read books on this, but they had guys that lived in the Eastern Bloc countries just as if they owned a home and they were a citizen.
They spoke perfect dialect of the language there.
Well, one of these guys was out of the East Bloc and in Berlin in his apartment and noticed a mailman walking down the street.
And this mailman was in a German mail uniform and had a mail bag, and it was kind of curious.
The guy was just nonchalantly staring, and he noticed, this guy isn't delivering any mail.
And he saw him the next day.
So he... He decides to follow this guy, and he follows him to an apartment.
The guy didn't deliver one bit of mail, except he got to this apartment.
So this Special Forces guy talked to the CID, which Sully DeFontaine was running.
He was a colonel then.
And it told them about this thing.
So they put the mailman delivering the mail, and the department under surveillance determined it was a Russian KGB operation.
So they arrested the mailman.
He turned out to be Vladimir Putin, now the president or premier of...
Of Russia. And he said he had a whole team of guys.
And they interrogated him non-stop for hours.
And he said everybody came out of that room liking Putin.
He was such a charming person.
He first off admitted, yeah, I'm a spy.
You know? I told him just what it was.
So anyway, he said...
He said I talked to him for probably an hour, and he said he was absolutely the most charming person I've ever interviewed.
And he said they swapped him a couple days later for an American Special Forces guy they'd caught and were holding.
So they did this swap, and then the intelligence agencies found out about this, and they Blew a fuse because, yes, Putin was a spy, but he was also running the entire Russian KGB operation in East Germany.
And they were really angry about this, that they let him go.
And apparently somebody didn't get to communicate, hey, we captured this guy.
So, you know, since they showed no interest, they did the swap.
Wow. It's amazing that if he was running it, that he would be out there on the street dressed as a mailman.
This is almost like the Star Trek thing where they have the captain of the ship goes down with every party, you know?
Putin majored in German language.
They have intense schools in Russia back in that time.
And he spoke perfect German.
And so did Colonel de Fontaine.
Anyway, the long and short of this thing was...
I asked Sully, I said, well, what was Putin like?
He said, I'll just tell you one thing, he's nobody's fool.
He tricked us into letting him go.
He was so low-key, and he had everybody in the room laughing.
He was telling these jokes all the time.
And, you know, he looks so serious when you see him on TV. I mean, he's probably a pretty brutal character.
He was KGB, all those guys.
And I'm no apologist for him or the Russians.
Yeah. I think they make great mob characters, you know?
It reminds me of the movie...
Probably Ukrainians do, too.
Yeah, it reminds me of the movie The Usual Suspects, where he had Kevin Spacey as Kaiser Soze, and he's telling them all this...
Yeah, that type of thing.
That's exactly what Sully said.
And he said, I'll tell you one thing, he said...
He's no one's fool. He said the guy is extremely intelligent and very crafty and very...
He can lay out a...
He can play three-dimensional chess.
So anyway, the longest and shortest thing was I thought that was very interesting that he interrogated him for this long time and...
And that he was actually in Berlin doing this.
But what he was doing there, why he was there, I don't know.
I didn't get the... Sully was hard to get information out of.
He did so many incredible things, but his wife and me used to have to try to get him drunk on wine at night to get any stories out of him because he was just so humble.
He's just an incredibly great guy.
Well, you know, it makes you think when you compare how somebody rises up through a totalitarian system like that.
And they do have to be very ruthless, intelligent, and so forth.
And, you know, whereas the people who rise up in our system, they have to be ruthless and corrupt.
They don't necessarily have to be intelligent.
That is an understatement.
I just have a hard time sometimes getting up in the morning and skimming over the news.
I don't really get into it too much in detail.
Because... It's a matter, I think the biggest task people face in this country now is trying to determine what the truth is.
And that's why I actually encourage your readers to...
To support you, because to me, you're one of the few people that's a voice of reason and reality in this crazy world.
I mean, I see companies in the news.
I just can't even look at it.
It's just disheartening, and I think it's purposely designed to be that way.
But anyway...
I cannot believe the mess we're in.
The understatement was not very intelligent, but they seem to be surrounded by people like that.
Joe, you know, we're in a Kennedy missile crisis, whether people realize this or not.
Yes. A Cuban-Kennedy missile crisis.
Only Joe Biden isn't John Kennedy.
And... Putin is not Nikita Khrushchev.
Khrushchev was kind of a clown, and he got thrown out.
Yeah, you know, when he goes to the UN and he takes off his shoe and he starts banging it on the thing, we will bury you, I mean, that was...
Theatrics. He was one of the...
Stalin used to make him dance around when they had their commissar meetings and got drunk.
And he was kind of looked at as the clown, but everybody liked him.
And he was acceptable enough to put in a position at that time.
But we don't have those people.
So I think people better pray...
Cooler heads prevail in this thing.
I am totally convinced these people in the West have lost their grip on reality.
They're totally delusional.
We do not have a 1990 military anymore.
We do not have even technological superiority anymore.
The one thing that's going to be the deal breaker in a war is going to be the...
Hypersonic missiles. Now, missiles I worked on were pretty fast, but nothing at all like what they've got now.
It's Somebody is going to get walked over and I don't believe it's going to be the Russians.
They've had two years of intense combat experience.
Most of the men they've rotated through to get combat.
So they've got approximately 1.2 million people that are combat ground forces and You know, I don't know who's going to be involved with this.
I think initially, NATO, if they get boots on the ground into Ukraine, is probably going to be using European troops.
Now, they're there already.
They've had American troops in there.
These systems that we're giving them are so complex.
You can't teach somebody how to run that thing in like a high Mars missile system.
You can't teach this stuff in a month or two months.
And because of that, they've had to put people in there.
And I think our Defense Department is concealing the fact that quite a number of Americans have probably been killed over there.
Well, of course...
Well, our wide-open borders, you've talked about many times the ability for them to do direct sabotage, not just through cybersecurity issues and things like that.
We could easily have somebody dressed as a mailman just walk across the border, right?
He doesn't even have to have a mailbag.
Just come across. That might actually stick out and be even more suspicious if they came dressed as a mailman, I think.
Yeah. You'll probably get the choice of a postal office blue one or one of the LGB colored ones.
There you go. Come dressed as LGBT. Oh, bring them right in.
We need more of them. Yeah.
I've never seen a country in such a mess.
Well, just tell your listeners this and you.
Had a conversation. Since writing this book, The Civil Defense Manual, I have had the opportunity to meet people that I would have never met in my lifetime.
One such person, I won't say his name, he's Up in his 80s now.
He was in line for the last president's assistant director of national security which he turned down because he was 80 at the time.
He's a retired army colonel and combat veteran of Korea and also an attorney.
And he was he's had some very important positions but He told me about two weeks ago...
All the chatter in Washington, D.C., in the Pentagon, the intelligence agencies, politicians, is something is going to happen in September or October.
Something very big. I don't want to alarm people, but I also believe that something is going to happen.
Whether it's going to be an all-out war with American troops in the ground in the Middle East or in the Ukraine, I don't know whether it's going to be an exchange of some kind.
By the way, I'll just tell you this.
I'm quite familiar.
I'm no expert, but I'm quite familiar with nuclear-type weapons.
The first one, people have to understand, we said often Hiroshima and Nagasaki was an atomic bomb.
That was splitting the atom.
The ones that they came up with after that, We're called thermonuclear, which is a combination of splitting atoms, which is fission, and fusion, which is a multiplication factor that makes this bomb explosion a thousand times more powerful.
We now use thermonuclear weapons.
There is no such thing as a tactical nuclear weapon.
That is a joke.
I laugh every time I hear it.
It's like the old mythology of Pandora's box.
Once you open that, look out.
I don't think anybody understands the graduation and power of these bombs.
And that's a frightening thing to me.
Well, and of course, we've had a lot of indications of this.
You look at Jen Stoltenberg, I think, the NATO commander, head of NATO. He's stepping down, and they've got a new guy they're putting in there, Mark Ruta, who was the guy that was prime minister in the Netherlands trying to shut down all the farms and the farmers.
They organized and threw him out, so they moved him to NATO. But you've got all these different European nations, but especially the U.K., Talking about reviving a draft and doing this, even though that's unpopular, doing it as they're coming up to an election.
And then the same thing here in the United States.
And the United States are not only talking about automatically registering you in the draft, but now you've got a Democrat saying, let's draft women.
And this is one of the things that this here's a meme that was used years ago.
This was a guy that they convicted and want to send to prison because he put up some joke memes during the 2016 election saying just text your vote to this or show up on Wednesday or whatever to vote.
The same things were being done on the other side to Republicans, but they came after this guy, not after the person who was doing it on the other side to Republicans, and want to put him in jail.
One of the memes that he put up is this one I've got up on the screen right now.
A woman who was laying on the ground said he died for his country.
She's in the military, like an Arlington Cemetery or something.
He died for his country.
Now it's her turn.
And then down on the bottom there, it's Hillary Clinton's logo.
And hashtag draft our daughters.
They're actually doing that now.
Yeah. That's what they want.
Well, of course, the Republicans are saying we're not going to do that.
But you've got Democrats have introduced that bill.
So when you look at the fact that not only are they, A, bringing up the draft, but they are also trying to extend it.
Because they're worried that they're not going to have enough people.
They're going to extend it to women as well.
And so all these things are indications.
And then you had... The reason I mentioned NATO before was because the guys currently there said, oh, yeah, it's no problem for us to fly jets over Russia.
Oh, really? That's not a problem?
That's not a provocation?
That's not taking it to the next step?
That's where they are right now.
So, yeah, when you say that something's going to be happening, if it's done right before the election...
Yeah, maybe that's part of their calculation to take us to war because people are not happy with what they're doing, but they keep pushing this.
It's a relentless, iterative process to push us into World War III. Yes, I believe there's a push.
How far this is going to go, I don't know.
I'll just say this, that it's quite interesting how all of these LBGXYZ people and people like Ruta, who was trying to close all the farms down, how they are so behind all of this.
If somebody can't connect the dots and draw a conclusion that there is an agenda, Behind this, that's being pushed by people, then they need to go back to school.
I think a probable situation, I feel this is quite probable.
I earlier told you, I'm one of probably a handful of people that's ever witnessed a thermobaric explosion.
Let me explain to people what a thermobaric is.
It is not nuclear. It is simply something the Germans were working on at the end of World War II. One of their secret weapons, and thank God they did not get the thing functioning, and delivery systems, because this weapon...
I'll just give you an idea.
I saw this thing drop.
I was probably 800 yards away from this thing.
And the pilot told me over the radio, he said, watch this, mate.
And he disappeared.
His jet disappeared into the clouds.
And he came down almost, probably a 70 degree angle, released this thermobaric bomb.
Wow. A thermobaric bomb is a very low flashpoint, highly flammable mixture of chemicals, primarily fuels.
And what happened when he dropped this bomb is usually the procedure in most of them.
Now the Russians have made huge strides with thermobaric weapons in the last decades.
But the thermobaric bomb, once it's dropped, a small explosive charge blows the sides off of the thing, like a clamshell, and it distributes.
You can literally see this.
I watched This mist of highly flammable fuel spread out for hundreds of yards.
And then the bomb has a lanyard hanging on it, in other words, a long rope, and it's got a weight on it.
And that weight, as soon as it touches the ground, releases the tension on the rope, and it triggers the main explosion, which then ignites all of this fuel mist that's over hundreds of yards.
Wow. I've seen a lot of explosions.
I've never in my life witnessed anything like this.
There were actually two of them.
The first one was kind of a crump sounding, and the shell sides came off the thermobaric weapon.
Spread the fuel, and then the main charge ignited all that fuel.
It actually sucked the wind 800 yards away towards it.
It was drawing all the oxygen out, and it needed it to ignite this explosion of the fuel.
It created a mushroom cloud.
I couldn't believe this.
But the light from the explosion was so intense, it was like a bright star.
Now, people talk about the Russians using retaliating if they get hit inside.
I think right now what they're doing, the Ukrainians have a limited number of missiles.
Most of them have a range probably maximum of 300 miles.
And they've got to be launched inside of Ukrainian controlled areas.
I think they're limited in these.
I think the Russians are going to let them expend them.
The replenishment of them is going to be a problem because they're completely...
They're oversophisticated like most American and NATO weapons are.
Yeah. So I think what the Russians, if they do retaliate, will probably widely announce they're using a thermobaric weapon.
These things have...
I've never seen a lot of them set off, but I saw the one.
And I can just tell you, it almost mimics a small nuclear weapon explosion that I've seen in training films in the Air Force.
So that's a possibility.
Whether... The West is going to say it is a nuclear weapon being used.
I don't think the Russians want to open Pandora's box.
I don't know. What's your take on it?
Well, you know, when we go back and we look at what happened with Syria, for example, that was every time, and it was three years in a row that they did this, right?
And the last one they did was the first year of Trump.
It was in 2017.
And every time you would have a city that had been under constant bombardment, and the Syrian government was about to take back this Syrian city, We're supposed to believe that they dropped chemical weapons.
And it was debunked every one of those times.
And people, you know, eventually you get eyewitnesses that are there and other testimony.
But it took a while. And, you know, they would show even the spent canisters and stuff like that.
But it took a while for them to debunk that.
It made no logical sense whatsoever that they would conduct this conventional warfare, get right up to the point of winning, and then do the one thing...
That would bring in troops on the ground.
It was obviously a narrative to bring troops in on the ground.
So it becomes an information war, just like it was with Syria.
And they nearly got what they wanted out of that each of those times.
Even in Trump's first year, he kind of followed up on it and sent some missiles in.
But then it was shown that it was the White Hats who had claimed that it was...
A poison gas that was dropped on them and that type of thing.
So, you know, who knows? It's really going to be...
This is why I think the key thing is information.
Because when you have a war, the first thing that goes is the truth.
And it's difficult for people to get through that fog of war and know which side is telling them truth.
Typically, both sides are lying about everything.
And so it's very difficult to sort that out.
And if they really want to push it hard, they'll just use that as an excuse and go in because it takes a while to debunk these types of issues.
So I think it's very plausible they might do something like that.
I also think it's very interesting.
You talked about how overcomplex our systems are.
I think when you look at things like the M1 Abrams and all these other high-tech, very expensive pieces of equipment that we're sending over there, oh, that's going to be a game changer.
There's no way that they can counter that.
And yet they do.
They're very vulnerable.
You see now the modern state-of-the-art tanks that are being put in by Germany, and presumably they'll do it with the M1 Abrams.
I haven't seen any of them with it on.
Maybe they've got it on.
But they're driving around.
They look like a mobile chicken coop, you know?
They put this really crude netting and like a chicken coop and everything on top of the tank.
It looks like a mess, but that's what they have to do.
They call the Russian ones the turtle.
Yeah, exactly. They've got the same thing.
Yeah. But, you know, what has happened?
I mean, you know, with every war, you begin it fighting the tools from the last one, and then you find out everything's really changed.
And so the thing's changed. That is the drone strike, and that has really kind of turned into kind of a stalemate trench warfare.
Troops can't move because the drones will go after them directly, but also after the tanks.
You know, when you're talking about a troop or the tanks, it's very easy to change it.
Yeah. It's really hard to tell where this is going to start.
I don't like any of this because once you start a war, everybody's got this attitude.
Oh yeah, we're going to win this thing.
It's going to be a cakewalk and everything.
You always hear that at the beginning of wars.
Nobody knows which way it's going to go.
And everything changes.
Yeah, people here have to understand, if it progresses from any kind of a strike by the Russians in Europe to them going really overboard...
And striking something in the United States.
When I went through nuclear training, it was like bend over and try to kiss your butt goodbye.
It was under the MAD doctrine, which stands for Mutual Assured Destruction.
It was insanity.
It still is insanity.
They've got enough weapons to turn this planet into...
Black and cinder revolving around the sun.
I don't think anybody is that crazy.
I don't know. I see things being done.
You say information war?
Good God. I mean, we've been told from day one the Russians are being defeated.
The Russians are being defeated.
The Russians are pushing all over that place now.
They've learned from their mistakes.
They did get I have quite a few casualties to start with because the Ukrainians are...
Well, I speak of the late Ukrainians.
The Ukrainian military, the Ukrainians are fighters.
And they're pretty ferocious fighters, but they're no longer around.
Five, six hundred thousand of them killed.
But if people start to get scared over this, they have to realize it is quite simple.
I'd like to go into this in a little bit.
Just the 710 rule and the inverse square law when it comes to nuclear weapons and detonation.
So unless you're in a fireball or the blast area, It's a matter of doing a couple of simple things.
And you can survive.
And you won't have any ill effects from it.
Depending on how far you're away from the blast area.
But generally speaking...
People should...
I've got a whole section in Surviving Nuclear War with what you have, and people go to www.civildefensemanual.com.
I've got an entire section in there.
It's free to read, but it'll give people a pretty good idea.
It doesn't have the 7-10 rule in, but it's got basic information.
Yeah. Get in the middle of your house. And let me say this, you know, it's important for people, you put that there, that's very important, and it's free for people.
So you've also got a chapter from your books about water, and that is also free.
And so if people look at those two things, you're going to see the depth and the breadth of information that Jack's got in these things.
But those are also two things that you really do need to know.
Yeah. Yeah, it's basically the A to Z of how to survive without this modern, technical, power-driven, electrical infrastructure that we live in.
And it's a matter of, like, walking through a desert.
If you're walking 50 miles through a desert, and a waterhole is 25 miles away, you need to get to that waterhole.
And it's a matter of surviving long enough...
To continue on with your life.
And I don't see...
For one thing, people get confused.
They think, oh, if we're getting bombarded...
I don't know what the Chinese would do, but I know the doctrine of most militaries And nuclear exchange is, A, they're going to set off an EMP, a series of them.
Electromagnetic pulse event I'm not going to go into, but it's too complex.
But the second thing they'll do is hit military centers, communications and power generation hubs, military manufacturing and logistics centers.
They're not out to kill everybody in the city of New York or Los Angeles.
If there's a facility there that's manufacturing, it may get hit.
If there's an Air Force base next door, it may get hit.
If there's a, like the Yermo Marine Corps Depot or the Twelly, which fuels all supplies for everything but the Marine Corps.
Those places may get hit.
But the bottom line is they're not out to kill the citizenry.
But you have to, you know, people have to evaluate what's around them.
And that's going to give you pretty much a survival factor to tell you whether you're going to be in a blast or a fireball area.
And of course, if they take out the infrastructure and most people haven't provided anything for themselves, they don't have to kill everybody.
Everybody will wind up killing each other, fighting over food and things.
That's such a valid point.
Everybody seems to forget that.
If the electrical grid goes down...
We're in big trouble.
Our internet went off where I live for two hours.
We had a transformer blow.
Of course, everybody's freaking out in the neighborhood.
Oh, the Russians have attacked.
You know, like that movie.
Remember that movie with Peter Usinov, The Russians Are Coming?
I always laugh at that movie.
They portray Russia as, I'm no apologist for them.
Like I say, there's some pretty brutal people in the gangs that they have, and that kind of shows me what they're like.
But I think the long and short of it is, people think that Russia is the Soviet Union that we fought in the Cold War.
It's no longer that.
It's totally changed.
That's right. I don't think they have aspirations to take over Europe.
I mean, I was thinking, why would they want to?
They've got every third world drag in the world coming into Europe.
I mean, they must have enough problems at home, the Russians.
Why would they want to take on all these third world migrants, you know?
Well, if you stop and think about it, they've got the largest landmass, and they're right next to China, which has the largest population.
And I think they're worried...
About their backdoor.
I mean, they don't really need any more land.
They've got more land than anybody else does right now.
And, you know, I think when you look at the Ukraine thing, I see it as NATO aggression going back eight years and this internal civil war that was going...
The maiden revolution.
And it's been proven.
The intelligence agencies of the West were involved in that.
Yes, yes. And even in Ukraine, we had one guy, he's now been kicked out because he was very candid about everything.
You know, he got kicked out when he said, yeah, that...
The Russians didn't target that apartment building.
It was a cruise missile that came in and we hit it and then it veered into this apartment building.
So they kicked him out. But he was unfiltered in what he had to say.
And he came in with the Zelensky regime, which campaigned on ending the war.
And he said, no, there's not going to be any end to the war.
As a matter of fact, he said in three years we're going to be at war with Russia and in three years they were.
You know, it was 2019 he said that.
So there was this, everybody understood on both sides where this thing was going for quite some time.
Well look, we did the same thing.
If the Russians or Chinese moved missile systems that would deliver a nuclear weapon, add nuclear weapons into Mexico, I guarantee you, the border would get controlled pretty quick.
In fact, we'd be probably running tanks over into Mexico.
That's right. We would not put up with that.
And you know, Colonel McGregor...
My theory is proven by the Cuban Missile Crisis.
We didn't put up with them.
And so, what Russia is doing, I think, is for the benefit of their security.
Again, I'm not an apologist for them.
There's a lot of things I... I like about people all over the world.
There's things I don't like.
But I've had interactions.
I've got a couple of guys that were Special Forces guys in Afghanistan, the Russian Army, I know.
And they're great guys to talk to, you know, but pretty brutal characters, too.
Yeah, yeah. Well, you know, as Gregor said, if you think that Ukraine can beat Russia, that's kind of like saying if we had a war between Mexico and the United States, that Mexico was going to win.
That's just not going to happen.
The size of the place, the resources, the imbalance that is there.
And so, you know, it's become a proxy war.
But you mentioned at the very beginning and you can refer to it again now that the Cuban missile crisis and you know What people didn't realize for maybe about 15 years Or maybe longer. I think it came out in the 80s Maybe 20 years after it happened.
That there was this other thing that was happening.
We had put missiles in Turkey.
Turkey and Italy.
We actually had... One of the versions of the V2 German rocket was the Jupiter missile, and they had nuclear-tipped ones in Turkey right across the border.
Yeah. And, of course, a typical American politician, Kennedy says, we stared the Russians down and they blinked.
They didn't really blink, you know.
That's one of the reasons Khrushchev got removed was the deal he made and the long and short of the thing was they took those missiles and those nuclear weapons out of Turkey and at the demand of the Russians and they didn't really blink, they just did a trade-off, you know.
Yeah, that's right and that was kept quiet.
On our side for quite some time.
And so, you know, in a sense, this is very much a repeat of that.
Of course, as you pointed out, Biden is no JFK and Putin is no Khrushchev.
But, you know, we've put this military stuff close to them now with Ukraine.
So they're making a show of bringing their sub to Cuba and to Venezuela to launch rockets from it as well.
It's a show of force to say this is what we can do.
Yeah. That's a dangerous, dangerous situation.
Yeah, it is. When you get to nuclear weapons, it's not far from a soldier having a rifle and being in a war and shooting the enemy and getting around people that are armed or disarmed.
There's always a potential to pull that trigger.
That's right. Because he's been doing it.
That's right. If you let the nuclear box, Pandora's box, open...
And take out the tactical nuclear weapon and use them.
Look out. Nobody knows how far this is going to go.
And of course, our...
People in Washington, D.C. and elsewhere that are important really have no skin in the game because they've got provisions to protect these people for long periods of time.
Americans don't have that.
The Russians just had a 44,000 person about three months ago civil defense exercise When's the last time you've heard our civil defense?
There really isn't anything to speak of.
It's FEMA. No, it's nothing.
They can't tie their own shoes.
There's an interesting book I read.
I've talked about that several times.
It's called Raven Rock.
The U.S. government's plan to save themselves and let the rest of us die.
Talking about... What they had done during the Cold War when we had mutually assured destruction, they were going to assure that all of us died, but they were going to go into the underground bunkers and things like that, and got into a lot of detail about it, talking about these different places. We had one close to where we lived in North Carolina that was an underground AT&T facility. So there was a lot of these different things that were spread around,
but yeah, you're right, they really don't care about us.
And when you started talking about this, like giving a rifle to a soldier, the thing that came to my mind was these guys in Washington are kind of like some guys never touched a gun before, and you hand it to them, and he's waving and rounded everybody in the room without any muzzle control, right?
You know, and that's really what's going on with our foreign policy.
I mean, it's like we've handed a bunch of rifles to the State Department and the Pentagon and they're just waving it at everybody in the world, you know, to see where this is going to go off.
Well, let's hope if anything catastrophic like this happens that there's enough of us left to have the capability to run the cement trucks over and fill their air vents for You know, I don't envision a world being run by politicians,
period, but especially who we've got in charge now, and those people running a government now are not going to relinquish power, in my opinion.
They've gotten where they've gotten, as far as they've gone, and I do not think...
I think they're kind of like somebody having their house foreclosed on and deciding to light a fire in and burn the thing down as you're walking out the door. I think that's the extent that these people will go and I don't even think they know how dangerous this situation is.
I agree. We have five or six times as many aircraft.
We have a lot of F-15s and 16s and delivery systems for nuclear weapons.
But if they put those in Poland, I'll guarantee you the Russians are not going to wait.
They will probably do something to take those air bases out.
They will not let that threat.
Because they're seeing these people as totally...
Illogical, unreasonable, literally insane directives and decisions they're making.
You know, put yourself in the Russian military.
I think Putin is probably fairly reserved in what he's done.
I've heard that some of the military officers wanted to overthrow him over this other group that had the opinion, let's slowly...
Kill off the Ukrainians and we'll take...
We don't want to provoke a war.
I just don't think they're going to be able to avoid it.
Yeah, it truly is insane.
And, you know, I think that you talk about the fact that the Russians have civil defense drills and things like that.
Nothing here. They went through...
Their experience in World War II is very different than the American experience.
And because so many millions of them died in that war, that's the kind of memory that lasts.
You know, we don't really remember World War II in this country much.
It wasn't on our soil, and the people who fought it now for the most part have died.
And so there's a bit of an understanding of maybe our fathers' or our grandfathers' war.
But it's very different when you have that kind of mass slaughter on your own soil.
That persists for several generations.
And so they have a very different perspective on this, I think.
Correct. Correct. I think that the Russians are willing to sacrifice people.
The amazing...
To me, it totally blows me away.
I like to study military tactics.
And we have a conventional...
We have a set of conventional tactics to fight a Russian invasion of Europe The Russians We have always, but they, especially now with technology, use what's called the ISR. It's Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance.
They pinpoint every square inch of 25 miles in front of them for drone, artillery, missile strikes, Anything that gets in that 25-kilometer range, they have three layers of defense.
Every one of those layers is basically pinpoint-targeted For heavy, heavy bombardment.
This is why the Ukrainians just get cut to pieces.
They'll lose 5,000, 6,000 people in a day because they say, okay, yeah, we broke through the Russian lines.
No, they broke through the first tier of defenses.
And the Russians don't let them get any further than that.
They decimate them.
Decimate is one out of ten.
They obliterate them.
And our NATO advisors can't seem to teach them anything but...
What the conventional tactics of a Cold War were for an invasion of Russia.
It just blows me away.
But this is where military stick in the mud and junior commanders say only what they know the senior commander wants to hear.
So it's just a misdirected effort.
But I just...
I'm just assured that eventually, as far as I'm concerned, the Ukraine has already crumbled.
They just haven't closed up shop yet.
They've still got the lights on.
Yeah, yeah. And a lot of people were saying that from the very beginning.
It's like, you know, this mismatch that is there is doomed to failure.
And yet, it appears that the NATO forces are just going to use that as an excuse to directly engage the Russians.
I think that's where this is headed.
Well, you know, there's an interesting article.
Let's talk a little bit about individual preparation.
Again, you've got the chapter about how to prepare for a nuclear war in the aftermath of that if you're not in the direct blast zone.
But I was kind of curious to get some of your response to an article I saw that I thought was kind of funny because it was in the UK.
And they were saying that only about 15% of the British people do any kind of prepping.
And so the Telegraph got a hold of somebody and said, well, tell us what we need to do.
And of course, the first thing that you talk about is that you got to have water.
Nowhere in this do they mention water at all.
Instead, they say, well, you've got to have about three days' worth of canned food and things like that.
You've got to have a winter sleeping bag, a warm, waterproof coat.
And I'm looking at this and it's like, what are they talking about?
A flashlight, you know?
Stuff like this. Yeah, that's right.
I like this one. A three-in-one survival whistle.
A whistle so that you can...
Who are you going to call?
Exactly, who are you going to call?
Yeah, Ghostbusters.
For one thing, I don't want to insult anybody in English, but I married an English woman and a British woman, and I've always said that the English make good subjects, not citizens.
We Americans, I really do believe that we almost have something in our genetics That gives us such a ferocious independence.
It's passed on since the days of the 1700s.
Since we set foot in this place, it's just a survival mode.
I would like to tell people the simple rule is this.
You better have some water, number one, if you're going to survive.
Okay, I'll give you a scenario I would do in my house.
If there was a nuclear attack and we had winds drifting this way with fallout, number one, the nuclear weapons that I worked on, the thermonuclear weapons, were what were called the dirty bombs.
They were very inefficient.
They were a huge blast.
They left a lot of radioactivity around.
I call the new ones, I don't laugh, but I call the new ones environmentally friendly or green bombs.
Because they have been engineered to be very precise.
They put a big bang out and they don't leave a lot of waste around.
However, if you were to have an attack somewhere around you and you're outside of the fireball, which...
Forget it. You're toast.
It turns you into a cinder.
The blast area is going to irradiate you.
That's usually about 15 to 20 miles from a target.
If you're outside there, you're going to end up having southwesterly winds carry fallout.
The simple thing I would do in my house, I've got a large front room.
I would close all of my windows.
I would close all my doors.
I would have enough water, which is one gallon per person per day, for about four days in my house.
I would put it in five-gallon buckets or in a bathtub.
You want to stay, though, in the center of the house.
Here's the other thing people don't realize.
The first time in probably 100 years...
Our water system is as frail or as fragile as our food system.
We depend on it being pumped to us.
We don't have wells like we used to have.
Most people don't.
So if you've got a large room, and you get in the middle of it, and you have some sleeping bags, maybe a few games for the kids to play, Off to the side, a covered pail to use as a toilet.
Put a plastic bag inside of it and a cover on it, and you can change the plastic bags if it gets bad enough.
But you need to have food for about four days.
You need to have water for about four days.
If there are four people in the family, you need 16 gallons of water.
One gallon per one day per one person.
That's called the rule of three.
Mm-hmm. Staying in the center of your house does this.
Plugging the doors with blankets.
If you've got enough tape, do it.
But turn your HVAC system off.
The air outside your house is going to be contaminated.
If you keep that outside of the air inside your house, what you have happen is the radiation will come through a window.
You don't have to have shielding like they say.
It helps if you've got a basement.
Excuse me. I mean...
You don't have to be in a lead-shielded room or concrete-shielded room.
It helps to be in that.
But if you're in the middle of your house, a physics principle with nuclear weapons comes into play called the inverse square rule.
Which means this.
If you have a thousand Rankins, that's deadly, outside your house.
It comes through one foot.
It diminishes every one foot 25%.
So instead of 1,000 Rankins, one foot inside your window in your space, there's no radiation that's come in there.
It's just that the level coming through drops to 25%.
A further foot that it goes, it drops to another 25%.
So 1,000 Rankins is deadly.
250 Rankins over a period of time will kill you.
It's also a time-related thing, but just the simplicity.
One foot inside, 1,000 drops to 250.
Another foot, it drops to 62.5.
Another foot, it drops around 16.
Another foot, which is a total of 4 feet.
If you're further than 4 feet away from your windows in the center of a room with no air movement from the outside, you're basically...
In about the same level as an x-ray would give you.
Now, you don't have to stay there for months like everybody thinks.
You can stay there probably two days.
Here's what else comes into play.
With nuclear explosions, there's something called the 7-10 rule.
Which means this.
Every... Every...
Hold on a minute.
I forgot one. This is also diminishing over distance.
Diminishing over time.
Every one hour...
Say you had fallout of a thousand Rankins, which is deadly.
If you walk out and stay in an hour, you're so irradiated that...
And irradiation is like invisible bullets going through your body.
It literally causes a hemorrhage inside.
But if that thousand Rankins is out there for one hour, after one hour it drops to...
Seven-tenths of what it was.
And it continues to go down for every hour thereafter.
So there's two factors, time and distance.
And if you stay in the middle of your house and stay there for two or three days, the radiation level...
There's factors involved in this I don't want to go into But the radiation level will generally be safe Maximum one week, but I would say four days I don't know if any place in this country would get hit that bad But guarantee yourself one thing Before there is an all-out attack on the United States of any kind They'll set an EMP off And that EMP will kill everything that's electronic Mm-hmm.
Our electrical system will go down.
Our water system will go down.
So if you're inside that house, at least four days later, you most likely are going to be able to walk out with your wife and kids and generally be safe.
That's because the... That's because the radiation is decaying and the half-life is there.
And I have a question as we're thinking about that.
You say in general four days, you know, as kind of a rule of thumb, has the type of radiation that they use, has that changed?
Because different radioactive materials have a different half-life.
Or is that still just, you know, kind of a general rule of thumb?
We don't know exactly, I guess, you know, what kind of radiation are going to be exposed to, what kind of radioactive elements.
But I guess, you know, four days at that point, that decay is going to be neutralized, right?
Yeah. Look, people have to understand one thing.
This is not like Chernobyl.
If you have a radiation leak...
It's like a container of gasoline getting tipped over.
That's a radiation leak.
If you have a nuclear explosion, it's like that pail exploding.
If you're far away from the explosion, all you're going to have is carbon and water from the explosion most likely in the air.
An explosion and a radiation leak are two totally different things.
Chernobyl, yeah, maybe 20,000 years they can get back into that place because it was a leak.
The explosion basically consumes...
Much of the energy from the interaction of the U-235, U-238, exchange it, it's eliminated in the explosion.
The point being this, the stuff is going to drop all over outside your house, but it's going to go away.
Mm-hmm. And that's really important.
I think that's what a lot of people don't really understand, because you do think about that, you know, with Chernobyl.
I remember they had the Top Gear crew, you know, drove through there, and they're looking at the radiation that's still really very strong there.
And that's what people don't realize.
It's not going to be this persistent thing in an explosion like we see with Chernobyl, and that's important, I think.
No, and if you go into the blast area, it's going to be high radioactive there.
The fireball, the fireball actually is probably a mile to two miles.
The fireball is the only area that Radioactivity will be fused into water molecules.
Otherwise, outside there, it doesn't attach the water molecules.
It attacks the impurities in the water model.
But people confuse Chernobyl with a nuclear explosion.
Two totally different things.
Like spilling a can of gasoline versus it exploding.
When it explodes, you're going to have shrapnel from the can, and you're going to have a blast effect, but you're not going to Have any gasoline left.
That is really important.
And again, you know, people need to try to do what we can, but there really isn't much that we can do to influence these politicians.
They're influenced by the amount of money they're making.
And we just had another thing come out of another.
And this is John Solomon, who really is careful about his research.
He says he just found another $120 million that the Bidens got out of Burisma.
You know, there's just so much there.
It's just this cesspool.
And so, you know, we're not really, I don't think we're going to be able to influence anything to do this.
We've got prayers. That's, you know, it isn't the last thing that we do.
It's the first thing we do to pray about this.
And that's really about the only way that we're going to influence the outcome of this.
But it's important to prepare.
But I tell people to listen to you.
I listen to the radio coming home on a radio station I listen to.
And it's the syndicated news.
And we're talking all about the Georgia indictments against Trump.
Trump is a criminal.
And now you're telling me $120 million coming out of corruption money.
I'm a tooth and eyes guy.
I would like to propose...
That they take 10 billion of this money they're sending to the Ukraine or Israel and fix Americans' teeth and give them vision care.
What happened to our great Obamacare system that was supposed to take care of all of that?
I saw the prettiest lady the other day, I won't say where, but she was in a store and she was very conscious about the fact she had a tooth missing.
And I didn't say anything to her, but...
I know she can't get it fixed because I know what that stuff costs.
It's thousands of dollars. That's right.
Fix America's teeth.
Yeah. Give them vision care.
That's what we need to do. I mean, we're giving $160 billion to...
Oh, they're not going to do anything to help us.
They're looking at how they can shut down our food supply.
I mean, you know... How do we come up with an excuse so we can kill all the cattle?
I mean, it's just crazy what they're doing.
We don't have to talk to any of these Americans again.
Listen to them. They are laser-focused on harming us, and that's both parties, and that's everybody in Washington.
That's why I say, you know, our hope is in God, and where we work needs to be at our local level, I think.
And certainly, we all experienced that during 2020.
We know that it was either better or worse, depending on your local government.
It is truly always interesting to talk to you Jack and again folks if you want to see what he was just talking about that chapter is available for free.
You can also see the chapter on how to make sure that you've got water that's going to last.
That's also available for free.
Those are two of the key things especially in the world that we live in right now.
But that'll give you an idea of just how thorough his work is in Civil Defense Manual.
CivilDefenseManual.com.
It is a great resource.
I had somebody contact me and said, yeah, I got this, and it was worth more than ten times what I paid for it.
So I agree with that.
I've looked at this, and everybody that I've shown it to is just amazed at how thorough and extensive it is.
And it's great advice, because it's not just about physical stuff.
It's also about relationships.
And you're not going to make this as a Lone Ranger.
You need to have that community that's there.
Thank you so much for joining us, Jack.
Appreciate it. Thank you.
Thank you. Well, that's it, folks, for today's show.
Thank you for joining us. Have a great weekend.
And we'll talk to you, hopefully on Monday.
Thanks for watching.
The common man.
They created common core to dumb down our children.
They created common past to track and control us.
Their commons project to make sure the commoners own nothing.
And the communist future.
They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary.
But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God.
That is what we have in common.
That is what they want to take away.
Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation.
They desire to know everything about us while they hide everything from us.
It's time to turn that around and expose what they want to hide.
Please share the information and links you'll find at TheDavidKnightShow.com Thank you for listening.
