	you
	using free speech to free minds You're listening to The David Night Show.
	As the clock strikes 13, it's Wednesday the 18th of September, year of our Lord 2024.
	you Well, today we're going to begin with the pager wars, but it's also a war against our free speech that we're looking at.
	We have war breaking out everywhere, and don't you criticize them about it at all, because if you do, you're with the other people.
	There's a war within our country, a war outside of our country.
	Everything is being done to escalate this.
	We're going to take a look This amazing pager war, as well as the war by the elites to monitor everything that we want to do.
	And of course, Larry Ellison of Oracle says, this is wonderful.
	It's going to make everybody behave better.
	The police will behave better.
	You will behave better.
	Yeah, I'm sure that it'll have a great effect on the government and its agents, don't you think?
	We'll be right back.
	Stay with us.
	And let's not forget why they're doing tests on a regular basis.
	I mean, just horrific things that are happening to people being injured, even apart and aside from these new vaccines.
	Just business as usual, the pharmaceutical company, one woman's horrific reactions to a cocktail of vaccines that were given to her all at once.
	We have a war that is happening and is being done by a stealth campaign against us, in the same way they did a stealth campaign against these Hezbollah fighters.
	War preparations build after now it is up to 12 people dead, over 4,000 wounded in Lebanon.
	The Lebanese government has identified Israeli aggression, quote unquote, as being behind the attack.
	And of course there was someone in the Netanyahu administration who took credit for it and then deleted the post.
	The US government has said that Israel did it.
	And Israel's Channel 14 is reporting that senior Israeli military officials are preparing for a third Hezbollah war, which is expected to begin almost immediately.
	They want to kick it off.
	I mean, we've seen situations, haven't we, over and over again about, well, we'll just wait.
	We just know that Iran's going to attack.
	Wait, wait, wait.
	No, they didn't.
	They didn't counterattack after Israel did something.
	So Israel does something else.
	Well, they haven't attacked again this time.
	So let's, let's attack Hezbollah and let's attack Syria unprovoked as well.
	That also happened.
	That got buried because the sensational aspects of the page, because it seems like a rerun, you know, an unprovoked attack into Syria.
	They are trying to create a massive Middle Eastern war.
	That's going to wreak havoc on the globe, economically, if it doesn't spread violently.
	And, of course, at the same time, the U.S.
	government is continuing to provoke and to push war further into Ukraine, using long-range missiles and so forth.
	Uh, look, what is happening with us?
	We know that they're going to attack us, right?
	Or you can go back and if you go back into the history, you're never going to solve this history, right?
	Of who did this first.
	This is a Hatfields and McCoy that's been going on for decades, centuries.
	You're not going to solve this by saying, um, well, we're going to, um, now take the next step and we're justified in it because they attacked us.
	The way you solve this is if you really want peace.
	Then you'll forgo the additional recriminations.
	But when you look at this, to me this is a Pearl Harbor, right?
	The Japanese knew we were going to get into the war, so they attacked us first.
	What do we call that?
	We call that infamy, didn't we?
	The group that provokes, the group that attacks first, that's infamy.
	You know, that was Putin's big mistake.
	Although you can argue that the war had been underway for quite some time, it still wasn't their war.
	There was a civil war.
	A civil war that had been provoked by NATO.
	Russia understood what the situation was.
	It still doesn't justify them invading Ukraine.
	And even though Israel understands what the situation is with Hezbollah, and there's been rockets fired back and forth all the time, if they wanted peace, they would not be doing this.
	They would not be going into Syria at the same time.
	And so, As they're saying, this is something they were carrying around in their pockets.
	And, you know, it's like Pearl Harbor, but this time they're blown off the family jewels.
	Is that a pearl?
	A Hudsonville official said hundreds of fighters had such devices, speculating that malware may have caused the devices to explode.
	Well, mainstream media, and I talked to a Goat Tree yesterday, he contacted me actually, he goes, can you believe this?
	These people are saying, well, you know, maybe they did a computer hack and it caused the lithium battery to overheat and blow up and everything.
	This is ridiculous.
	Of course, we knew at that time, and now it's come out quite a bit, that there was a covert action.
	To sell them these pagers.
	Hey, you got a great deal on these things.
	You want some more, you know, that type of thing that already preloaded them with explosives and they're getting more details about that.
	You look at, and we got pictures of what it did to a desk that it was in and the room, uh, that is lithium batteries are bad.
	They're not that bad.
	Uh, so, um, it's not just the, uh, not just the people that were carrying it, but the people who are around them as well.
	Hezbollah said a number of pagers carried by its members exploded simultaneously at 3.30 p.m.
	It couldn't immediately be determined what caused the blasts, which were spread out across the country in several areas where Hezbollah has a heavy presence.
	Israeli media said Mossad rigged the pager batteries of a shipment that was imported five months ago.
	The Israeli spy agency said, Israeli media, placed a quantity of PETN, a highly explosive material on the batteries of the devices, and detonated them, raising the temperature of the batteries from afar.
	Yeah, you explode, you do raise the batteries.
	Whatever the mechanism is, the bottom line is that these things were booby-trapped before the people got them.
	And it was not simply a hack.
	They did have a way to control these pagers.
	I'm reminded of what a Pentagon official told me not long ago.
	We have let Israel face zero consequences for crossing all of our red lines in Gaza.
	So they're emboldened and they know that they face no consequences for going into Lebanon or going into Syria.
	And of course we went into Syria.
	We went into Syria with Trump.
	What are we doing there?
	Well, Trump said we're going to take the oil.
	And every once in a while you see some American soldiers injured in Syria.
	Nobody really asks why we're in Syria.
	I ask.
	Some other people ask.
	Where was the war declaration for that?
	But, yeah, we're there.
	We're there to take the oil.
	And so, for the U.S.
	government, for the Israeli government, for the Ukrainian government, there are no red flags.
	It's all green flags to go to war.
	Everywhere.
	No restrictions.
	No restrictions.
	So, not in Russia, not anywhere, not Gaza, nowhere.
	We want full-on war all the time.
	Peace talks?
	No, I'm not talking to you about peace.
	We'll do another attack, and another, and another.
	I'm sick of this, quite frankly.
	We have a government that injects us with poison, a government that is fostering war and revolution and coups around the globe all the time.
	And you think you're going to fix it with somebody in the White House?
	This has been going on all my life.
	And it's getting worse.
	And it went on throughout the Trump administration.
	And of course, it's going on through the Biden administration.
	And both Trump or Lala will just be puppets for whatever these people want to do.
	There's reports of civilian deaths in Beirut, including children.
	Some of the explosions happened inside homes.
	Where pagers were on shelves or bed stands.
	We're seeing video online of injuries to their arms or legs, even their faces.
	Now imagine you have situations where, you know, somebody's driving a car and that causes secondary tertiary deaths as well.
	Yeah, the new pagers that the Hezbollah members were carrying had lithium batteries that apparently exploded.
	Again, what a joke.
	And as I said before, Gautri and I were Laughing about what the media is saying.
	He sent this to me, he said, exploding Hezbollah pagers.
	This wasn't a hack.
	It was a pro Intel move.
	So if I were to make the pager of doom, it'd be something like this.
	You make mini Claymore mine grenade, a back plate, molded, hardened C4 explosives or molded det cord, hardened components mounted on delivery system, molded case flies apart like a grenade sequence, electric charge code.
	Say if you got six plus whatever triggers the electrical charge, then boom.
	It says, of course, if I were to do this, it would be illegal.
	It'd be a psychopathic, but it is totally cool for intelligence spooks to do this, isn't it?
	It's so cool.
	And we got so many people out there.
	Ben Shapiro loves it.
	Oh, he's joking about all.
	It's so many people gleeful about, oh, isn't this great?
	And it's great.
	Well, you know, War kills people on both sides.
	I responded to him, I said, yeah, you know, I was, um, lithium batteries are bad, but they're not this bad.
	And I said, just to think, I was thinking about getting a pager and going to old school.
	But he said, well, that's fine, just as long as you don't buy it from a CIA or Mossad agent.
	If Mohammed's coming around offering you buy one, get 1,000 free, you might want to forget that one.
	A Hezbollah official told AP that the pagers were a brand that they hadn't used before.
	No doubt.
	Big scoop there for the Associated Press.
	Uh, they said they got it from a company in Taiwan called Gold Apollo.
	They began heating up and exploding around 3.30.
	This is what it looked like.
	Now here, you've got a woman operating the cashier, the guy standing next to her to her left.
	Boom.
	And it hurt her.
	See, she gets it in the face.
	Um, he's on the ground.
	Uh, here's the guy to market.
	Boom.
	It's him.
	In that particular case, I don't think anybody else was hit.
	And then here's the desk I was talking about.
	Look at the damage done to this desk.
	Bows through the top, through the bottom.
	Yeah, look at that, around the... Blue pieces all the way across the room.
	Look at that.
	Yeah, well, you know, that's... Isn't that cool?
	Isn't it great?
	The bombs and the technology that we've got.
	I mean...
	You know, just because you can do something doesn't mean you should, right?
	There's still a moral issue in all the wars, isn't there?
	Thousands of civilians wounded, nine people killed, 4,000 plus injured.
	Ed Snowden said the attack was indistinguishable from terrorism.
	He said what Israel has done is, via any method, reckless.
	They blew up countless numbers of people who were driving.
	Cars out of control.
	Who are shopping?
	The children who are in the stroller standing behind him in the checkout line, etc.
	Indistinguishable from terrorism.
	And of course there's terrorism when you shoot bombs and missiles.
	And it's been going on for both sides for quite some time.
	Is anybody interested in stopping it?
	No.
	Is Israel interested in escalating it?
	Yes.
	And so is the United States.
	We have to ask ourselves, Hans, are we the bad guys?
	Are we the ones who continue to escalate this?
	Never seeking peace, refusing to come to the table, refusing to even talk about it?
	You know, as I said, at the end of the Civil War, we had the Insurrection Act put in.
	Andrew Johnson said, we're not going to keep doing this.
	We're not going to keep trying to even the score.
	We're going to, I'm going to pardon everybody who fought for the Confederacy.
	We're going to stop it right now.
	Well, that's not the time that we live in.
	Right now, we're living in the time before everybody, when everybody wants war.
	Everybody wants violence if they don't get their way in the election.
	Nobody wants to talk about peace and all these areas where there is actually war.
	We live at a time where everybody wants to escalate.
	I got a clip, I'll show it to you in a moment, a debate.
	In a political debate, six candidates in Brazil.
	One of them picks up a chair, starts beating the other guy live on TV.
	I mean, this is going back to before the Civil War.
	We had, what was the guy's name, Preston Brooks, I think, caned another guy, you know, on the congressional floor, beat him with a cane.
	So, a censored man put up a picture of, says, Israel murdered this 10-year-old girl in their pager attack on Lebanon.
	Ben Shapiro celebrates it.
	He says Hezbollah has been forced to rename themselves Hez-Ah after losing all their balls.
	Yeah, Ben Shapiro, a Jewish John McCain or Lindsey Graham.
	Syrian Girl says the pagers of all doctors and nurses were targeted with one exception.
	The American University of Beirut Hospital.
	And they had asked their staff to replace their pagers 10 days ago.
	Now the American university, as people notice that they, uh, call us to replace all of our pagers.
	Why is that?
	American university of Beirut medical center confirmed the swap, but then categorically denied that they were involved in any conspiracy.
	Sounds just like nine 11, right?
	All these people get the call.
	Don't go there.
	The guy who owned the place who used to go there every morning for breakfast, don't go to building seven, whatever.
	Right.
	I was just lucky.
	He said, I was just lucky.
	Yeah, lucky that you work with the murderers.
	A Lebanese security source, the report says the communication devices were rigged with up to 20 grams of that material, the PETN.
	So I'm not sure what that is, but you know, they've even got a quantity.
	They think they know what was in it, but it was a way that they enticed them to buy it.
	And then the other attack that nobody's really talking about.
	Israel's largest unprovoked attack on Syria in years, and this was six days ago, last week, kills at least 18 people.
	Hans, are we the bad guys in this?
	Have we become the Nazis that we fought?
	Certainly you can say that.
	I think that's true of both Israel and the United States.
	We've even adopted the Mingalas.
	And other Nazi war criminals, they became the basis of our nuclear biological chemical programs.
	And Fort Detrick and everything, you know, they had a, it would put an American officer up at the top, you know, so people didn't see what was going on, but the people were running the show, you know, one or two levels down.
	It's just like with Trump, you know, putting Mike Pompeo up at the top of the CIA, but he's got Gina Haspel, the one who tortured people and lied us into the war in Iraq.
	He's got her actually running the show at the CIA.
	And then, you know, after that doesn't really create much of an issue for anybody.
	I had an issue with it, but that didn't create much of an issue for... Nobody's really talking about it.
	Other than, I guess, me.
	I didn't hear anybody else talking about Gina Haspel.
	Then he promotes her.
	And promotes Pompeo.
	So, just before midnight on Sunday, a little over a week ago, Israel began launching waves of unprovoked airstrikes against Syrian targets in the center of the country.
	The attack was the largest committed by Israel against Syria since 2018, killed at least 18, injured 40 people.
	Despite the hundreds of attacks perpetrated against Syrian civilian and military infrastructure, Damascus has chosen not to respond in years and instead takes its appeals to the United Nations.
	Yeah, I'm not saying that these other people are good.
	I'm just, you know, when you look at Iran and the fact that we shot down their airliner, it was a mistake while we were doing naval drills.
	The same thing that we did with flight 800, TWA flight 800 off the coast of Long Island a couple of years after that.
	But of course, since it happened with another country, they couldn't really deny what had happened.
	Shot down an Iranian airliner, killed everybody on board.
	The Iranians did not unleash a terrorist attack.
	And eventually they got a little bit of compensation.
	Not much, certainly not by our standards.
	But there's different ways to handle these things.
	And yet we get the war propaganda that these people are monsters, we just need to kill them all.
	And that's going to wind up coming home.
	Now what is to stop this type of thing?
	What is to stop an attack on our infrastructure?
	Take it all the way down.
	And the absolute total chaos that would result.
	By the way, you can't stop the CIA from doing what they want to do.
	Trump's not going to stop them.
	Lala certainly isn't going to stop them.
	You can prepare for these kinds of situations, and you should take a look at CivilDefenseManual.com.
	Jack Lawson's got some great advice there, things that you can do to prepare for natural emergencies, for war, for, you know, for the gang warfare that they're bringing into this country at the same time that they're leaving us vulnerable to attacks on our infrastructure.
	And then going around kicking every ant bed that they can in the world and leaving the borders open so they can all come here.
	You know, it's almost like our government hates us, isn't it?
	Yeah.
	Well, you had RFK Jr.
	and Donald Trump Jr., the two juniors, got together and wrote an op-ed piece on the Hill.
	Published it yesterday.
	Trump and Kennedy warn of nuclear war risk.
	They said Washington should open direct talks with Moscow right away and stopped making, mistaking Russia's restraint for weakness.
	You see, that's it.
	We are the world's bullies, the U.S.
	and Israel.
	We go around knocking chips off of everybody's shoulder or telling people not to.
	And we just keep, you know, okay, cross this line.
	Okay, I'm not going to cross that line.
	All right, take another couple of steps.
	I'm going to draw this line, cross that line.
	I mean, we just continually push, push, push for war.
	Never a talk about peace anywhere.
	None.
	They don't even try.
	They don't want it.
	They do want war.
	That's part of the great reset.
	That's part of what this fourth turning culminates in, is war.
	And you have to understand so that you don't get caught up, so that you don't fight for them, so that you don't make excuses for them, like people are making excuses for Trump.
	Don't get caught up in this propaganda stuff.
	See these people for who they are.
	Don't follow them.
	Don't cheer them on.
	So, they said in their op-ed piece, the U.S.
	and its allies, allowing Ukraine to use weapons for long-range strikes into Russia would, quote, put the world at greater risk of nuclear conflagration than at any time since the Cuban Missile Crisis.
	Obviously.
	Obviously.
	The title of the op-ed piece was Negotiate with Moscow to End the Ukraine War and Prevent Nuclear Devastation.
	They said the U.S.
	must focus on finding a diplomatic off-ramp to a war that should never have been allowed to take place.
	But we were the ones provoking it from the very beginning.
	From the very beginning.
	Yeah, Russia crossed the line.
	But it was, you know, our State Department was acting passive-aggressive.
	Right?
	In that regard.
	Doesn't excuse what they did.
	Doesn't excuse it.
	Some American analysts believe that Putin is bluffing and they favor calling his bluff, they wrote.
	These analysts are mistaking restraint for weakness.
	In essence, they are advocating a strategy of brinksmanship.
	Well, I would say that was true of a couple of years ago.
	Right now, this is just war.
	Right now, it's proxy war.
	But what they're talking about is the fact that they continue to push, push, push for the proxy war.
	And everybody knows what that is.
	Both sides know what it is.
	Quite frankly, I think Putin is just waiting to see what the outcome of the election is.
	And to see if Trump wins, if it'll make any difference.
	But as they point out correctly, no American interest is at stake in Ukraine.
	None.
	We don't have any American interest at stake in Gaza.
	We don't have American interest at stake in Lebanon.
	And we don't have American interest at stake in Syria.
	Never did.
	Why do we get involved there in that civil war?
	Well, we know why.
	We have the geopolitical people, the multinational oil corporations and others who are pushing for these wars for many, many reasons.
	The military-industrial complex wants war everywhere all the time.
	It's good for business.
	It can sell more weapons.
	It is madness to risk nuclear war for the sake of the neoconservative fantasy of global full-spectrum dominance, they said in their op-ed piece.
	To de-escalate the Ukraine conflict is, quote, more important than any of the political issues our nation argues about.
	But we have an internal war as well.
	You know, we look at this sneak attack and You know, giving people pagers that go off.
	What about the vaccines that go off on people?
	What about the antibiotics or the... name it!
	All the different drugs that they put out there that are like time bombs.
	And we have, you know, whether it's the CIA or whether it's the FDA.
	You know, they're working with the big multinational companies at war against us.
	Sneak attacks.
	Conducting murder with impunity?
	Let's take a look at the horrific condition of this young girl who was very healthy, went to the hospital for a minor issue.
	They loaded her up with vaccines and this happened.
	Look at that.
	So generally I don't, I don't believe I've got more than three days left.
	My face is getting, uh, On her eyes she said, my head feels like it's going to explode.
	I mean, just look at this.
	It's horrific.
	Her whole face turned purple.
	If you're listening to this and not watching it.
	Big red circles all around her eyes.
	Purple everywhere.
	She's bleeding everywhere.
	And her eyes are swollen.
	She's unconscious there.
	This is where she was talking before she got that back.
	...this question.
	They gave me a meningitis vaccine, a pneumonia vaccine, and the tetanus vaccine all at once.
	Within a few minutes, my body started reacting, and over the past day, it was literally last night that they gave it to me.
	Over this past day, I have gotten a thousand times worse.
	It's on my gums.
	You can't barely see.
	It's on my lips, and of course, my neck.
	It's on my feet, my toes, my back, and the back of my neck, and all over my scalp.
	It's also on my ears.
	It is absolutely the worst thing I've ever been through.
	I originally came in because I suffer from a blood disorder called PNH, paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria.
	I was diagnosed with the blood disorder back in January of this year.
	I have since then moved to California and Really trying to work on myself without getting any treatment for the disease as they wanted to give me a bunch of vaccines and I have never had a vaccine in my life.
	We tend to, my family and I, tend to not do vaccines due to religious preferences.
	We are Christians.
	I have never received a vaccine other than when I was a baby and the certain ones.
	My PNH was getting worse.
	I was having very bad symptoms of it, and I was having unbearable headaches to where I couldn't even stand.
	I was in bed for two weeks and didn't eat.
	I was just trying to wait for all the symptoms to go away at home, but I just kept getting worse.
	The reason why I chose UCI Medical is because I literally live three minutes from this hospital.
	My hemoglobin was at 3.1 when I came in and I got a few blood transfusions and they raised it up.
	They want to do another bone marrow biopsy on me as I had one in January to show that I had this disease.
	They want to perform another one so that they can see what kind of PNH I have but I'm starting not to trust them at all and I believe I will go back to Florida to do that.
	But it's just very hard to leave because I am all the way across the country.
	I'm in California and I originally resided in Florida where my original doctor was.
	I got blood transfusions.
	My hemoglobin went back up to about a 7 or an 8.
	And it goes on.
	She talks about her medical history.
	Poor thing.
	She's suffering from a disease.
	She's desperate.
	She goes in for help and what do they do?
	They load her up with vaccines that are absolutely unnecessary.
	Is she going to contract?
	Is she at risk for meningitis there?
	Or any of these other things?
	How do they even justify something like that?
	Well, I mean, it's simply about the money, isn't it?
	First, do no harm?
	No, that's not part of it.
	But I put these two things together, folks, because they're the same.
	This is the attitude of the people You go back to Paul Ehrlich and the population bomb in the late 1960s that was a precursor, motivator for all the stuff that happened with the Green MacGuffin, the climate MacGuffin.
	First it was going to be an ice age.
	They ran with that MacGuffin for about eight or nine years.
	And then suddenly they flipped it 180 degrees and said, no, we're going to go global warming.
	We're all going to, everything's going to melt.
	All our ice caps are going to melt.
	We're all going to die in a flood, you know?
	And, um, uh, but they still had the same goal.
	And the immediate things that they wanted us to do were all still the same.
	But their ultimate goal was always depopulation.
	They want war.
	And Paul Ehrlich even said that.
	He said, so how do we get depopulation rapidly?
	He said, well, we could do war.
	But that isn't nearly as effective as some kind of a global pandemic would be.
	It's really disease, really coming at us, you know, you've got the war, but you've also got Uh, this, um, this pandemic of vaccines.
	That's what the pandemic is.
	It's not bird flu or impacts or COVID.
	The pandemic is the vaccines and these murders and the white coats are just waiting for you to not see something that they're doing so they can stick it in your back or in your arm, backstabbing, murdering people, doing it for money.
	And the medical industry is no better than the military-industrial complex.
	Perhaps they're worse.
	More devious.
	You know, euthanasia in Canada is really exploding.
	It is now the sixth leading cause of death.
	But of course, that's not counting the deaths from the physicians.
	What do they call it?
	The Atatric Genesis?
	I can't remember what the name was, but it's basically generated by physicians.
	Diseases generated by physicians like that.
	Well, we're going to take a quick break and when we come back, we're going to get into some politics.
	I took a break off of politics yesterday and a lot of people were very upset that I didn't talk about the shooter and all the rest of this stuff.
	Yeah, we can all focus on Trump.
	While the world blows up with bombs and sabotage and poisoning everywhere, right?
	We'll be right back.
	Just a small town boy drinking genetically modified soy.
	This ensures he doesn't co-create.
	Please stop breeding.
	Stop the breeding!
	We are almost 9 billion people.
	Please stop bleeding right now.
	They're doing what?
	In the place they named after me?
	Good thing I have the David Night Show to keep me informed on the plots of these traitors.
	Making sense.
	Common again.
	This is the David Night Show.
	Well, as we look at the second Trump assassination, everybody wants to find out everything they can about this guy.
	And of course, there's a lot of suspicious aspects of it.
	On Breitbart, you have AWR Hawkins, who talks about Second Amendment issues.
	He points out that, oh, by the way, this guy, The gun that he got is illegal.
	He was a felon who was barred from gun possession, but that's not going to stop them from pushing gun control.
	So he was able to buy a gun, even though he was a felon.
	He actually tried to buy a used rocket from Elon Musk, actually, as well.
	On Twitter, yeah.
	I mean, he didn't drive up to SpaceX and try to buy it.
	But, you know, he's a patsy.
	He's a nut.
	But he does have connections to Thomas Crook and others.
	So, I mean, it is a very large web that is there.
	And I could get all involved and all the intrigue and the connections and all the rest of this stuff about what's going on with us.
	We already know what the CIA is about.
	We already know there's different factions within the CIA, within the intelligence community as well, especially in the intelligence community.
	Generally, it's military intelligence versus the CIA, right versus left.
	But the real issue.
	It's what they're doing to us.
	Let's not get so focused on these politicians, quite frankly, that we don't pay attention to what they're doing to us.
	With Elon Musk, he says, I'd like to buy a rocket from you.
	He sent a tweet to him on Twitter.
	I wish to load it with a warhead for Russia's Black Sea mansion, Putin's Black Sea mansion bunker to end him.
	Can you give me a price, please?
	It can be old and used as it will not be returning.
	So again, you know, they can do articles about how he tried to buy a rocket, but the real issue is, how did this guy who was a roofer, roofing contractor in North Carolina, how did he get a fairly large house in Hawaii?
	How is he traveling the world?
	You know, whether or not he actually has connections with these people in Afghanistan or whatever.
	He was in Ukraine.
	He was in Washington.
	You know, how does he get independently wealthy where he can just travel around?
	And, you know, not even hang out in his home in Hawaii.
	Where did he get his gun?
	All the rest of the stuff.
	Well, the response to this from Trump and others is, I think, probably the most significant thing.
	Trump claims that rhetoric was causing him to be shot at.
	And then, at the same time, in the same breath, he comes after the Democrats.
	And you know, we've seen this before when neither he nor Lala want free speech, right?
	Lala was saying when she was upset about Twitter not being censored or, you know, well, he has, he's violated his privileges and his privileges need to be taken away from him.
	You don't have any right to free speech.
	No, not at all.
	And then we saw the same thing from Trump.
	We said the, the ABC, because what they did with the debate, they need to lose their license.
	They need a license for this stuff.
	They need to lose that license.
	They're no different folks.
	They're no different.
	Uh, it's just, it's just the packaging.
	They're two celebrity puppets that have that at heart are not even different.
	Let alone the people who run them.
	They're not different from each other.
	Vote for whoever you wish.
	I don't care.
	But you better focus on what's going to happen with your family, your community, your state, that type of thing, because they are the same.
	And so then, you know, as we all talk about, well, you know, free speech, we don't want to have free speech.
	Everybody's got to start attacking each other.
	Take a look at this.
	This is a debate for a mayor in a town and a televised debate.
	With election rivals to be the mayor of Sao Paulo, Brazil's biggest city, one struggling candidate whacked another with a chair and was expelled.
	It was a debate with six people.
	One of the candidates, who is a TV presenter, Maybe this is something that we'll see in the next presidential debate.
	Maybe ABC or whichever mainstream media organizations, maybe instead of trying to debate one of the candidates like ABC debated Trump, maybe they'll just pick their chair up and come after Trump.
	He's absolutely crazy.
	He had taunted him.
	He said, well, you're not man enough to hit me.
	You know, he's like, oh yeah, well, I got a chair here I can hit you with.
	So, uh, as, as we look at this and you know, the policies and Trump and Lala were supposed to believe are so different from each other.
	And they are going to, one of them is going to save us.
	The other one is just going to destroy the country.
	Well, just take a look at what Trump is talking about in terms, not just of the first amendment, where they both believe that nobody should have any speech unless they permit it.
	You got licenses, you got privileges for that.
	Well, no, we don't have, you don't have to get a license to be a journalist.
	You shouldn't have to, that was being floated by Obama.
	I oppose that.
	Everybody opposes that.
	It's reprehensible.
	But now, you know, if Trump says it, it's OK.
	Trump has suggested restoring the tax break he removed in 2017.
	He capped the deduction that you have for state and local taxes at $10,000.
	And so he said on Tuesday that he'd lift that limit.
	This is so old school presidential politics.
	Where they talk about incremental tweakings of this monster, right?
	The IRS, the income tax, they talk about that.
	You know, 30, 40 years ago, we would talk about abolishing the IRS and abolishing the income tax.
	And journalists would say, you guys just aren't serious candidates.
	Well, now some people talk about it, but not the presidential candidates.
	They'll talk about, well, let's get rid of the tax on tips.
	Let's restore this income tax break here.
	Hey, Donald, you know, the problem is that the Republicans have signed on to this.
	The Republican speaker signed on to 80,000 new IRS agents.
	They're going to give an increase to the IRS that is bigger, seven times bigger than their current entire budget.
	That's just going to be the increase.
	So all of this stuff, folks, it really annoys me to see how stupid people are to think that Trump is going to be better for the economy when he's not talking about the massive army of IRS agents that are there because they want to make sure that you don't own anything.
	He doesn't talk about the Paris climate accord.
	He doesn't get rid of the Paris climate accord.
	He pretends that it was ratified by Obama and he doesn't get rid of it.
	And that for sure.
	It's going to take everything away from you.
	So if you were serious about it, they would at least stop the increase.
	Don't give them the $80 billion when they have an entire budget of $13 billion.
	Don't give that to them.
	And let's not add another 80,000 IRS agents.
	How about that?
	No, no, we'll take the tax off of tips.
	How about that?
	Are you happy about that?
	They play you like fools, don't they?
	They think they were fools.
	Oh, okay.
	Well, I'll vote for that guy.
	Yeah.
	They give you, you know, 10 cents and then hit you with a thousand dollar fine.
	But hey, he gave me a dime.
	And, um, the IRS is going to be the way that Hillary and her ilk come after you.
	You know, a lot of people talking about Hillary.
	Uh, coming out saying everybody that disagrees with her needs to be arrested now.
	And this is the way it is escalating.
	We knew that was going to happen.
	Once the purging started, we knew that it, then they create the hate speech, the hate crimes, then hate speech crimes and so forth.
	And of course they're going to lock us up.
	We've already seen this happening in many other countries.
	Uh, and then when you look at crypto, you know, the crypto, there's a crypto pack that just gave like seven and a half million dollars to Trump.
	And so he's positioning self as a crypto bro.
	But, uh, he had an interview on X spaces and he absolutely had no idea what he was talking about.
	He's making these empty promises.
	He doesn't know what he's talking about.
	He has no intention of doing anything about this.
	Trump's bid to become a crypto bro has gotten off to a bad start as he couldn't answer simple questions during a live X spaces.
	When asked why it's so important for America to lead in crypto adoption, he replied, it's so important.
	It's crypto.
	It's AI.
	Is this any different than Lala Harris, the clip that I played for yesterday?
	She says, AI is so important.
	First of all, it's two letters, A and I. And it stands for artificial intelligence, a very important thing, you know.
	Intelligence is a very important thing, I'm told.
	I don't have any, but maybe someday I will.
	But they're the same.
	They're empty suits.
	They're puppets.
	They're there as a distraction.
	Oh, look, we've got Punchin' Judy here.
	That's a good name for him.
	Punchin' Judy.
	Trump punches Judy all the time and vice versa.
	But she laughs.
	Judy is a laugher.
	Trump is a puncher.
	He says, it's important, it's crypto, it's AI, it's so many other things.
	It needs tremendous electricity capabilities beyond anything I've ever heard.
	He started talking about AI.
	Well, AI is not crypto, but you know, he did say previously that we need to have more workers as he's talking to executives who want to bring in cheap labor to replace Americans.
	Yes.
	Yes.
	Not Americans first when it comes to jobs.
	No, we need more workers.
	And Trump said, because of AI.
	No, AI is designed to take jobs.
	Your stimulus check that you gave people, that was training for universal basic income.
	Try to keep us from coming after them with guillotines, as Bloomberg said.
	So he admitted that his, he told us though, that his sons know all about crypto.
	So that's good.
	He says, um, 18 year old Barron, he says, Barron knows so much about this.
	Barron's got four wallets or something.
	I'm saying, explain this to me.
	He knows it so well.
	And Eric and Don, I have a lot of respect for them.
	When asked direct questions, he changed the topic to AI needing more electricity, or changed the topic to China.
	At one point he compared it to crypto to his granddaughter learning Chinese.
	The, uh, a third person says, uh, several people, uh, talked about it.
	One person says, let's be honest.
	Trump doesn't even know what crypto is.
	He doesn't even know why he's being asked to show for it.
	Yeah, they just send him the checks.
	It's just like what he did with RFK Jr.
	and the pharmaceutical companies.
	Trump's stance on cryptocurrency has evolved since his presidency when he initially dismissed it as a scam.
	A big part of the evolution, of course, was when he made millions of dollars scamming people with those poorly done pieces of art, quote unquote, showing him as the hero of any number of things.
	A guy, Scott Stapp, who is the lead singer for a group called Creed.
	I know nothing about him.
	Do you know anything about them, Travis?
	No, you don't either.
	But he got it right.
	He stopped his concert in the middle of it.
	And I'm not the only person who's saying this kind of stuff, so it's good to see this.
	And so Scott Stapp, a front man for a group called Creed, launched an impassioned anti-establishment speech, says Breitbart.
	During a performance in Texas over the weekend, bringing the concert to a halt in order to urge Americans to stand up for their rights and fight back against the abuses of what he called the powers that be.
	He said, America is a Christian nation built on the Bible and the Word of God.
	They want us divided.
	They want us separate.
	They want us compartmentalized in our little niches, in our own little groups to keep us distracted from holding them accountable.
	He said, we've got to start reminding them what our Constitution says.
	We've got to start reminding them what our Bill of Rights says.
	We've got to remind them that we're a constitutional republic built on the Bible and the Word of God.
	And we're not a democracy, quote-unquote.
	Boy, this guy knows his stuff.
	He said, they start dividing us and programming us in kindergarten.
	He said, my friends, they teach us how to be good slaves to authority.
	It's divide and conquer.
	Everything we accuse nearly every other country of doing, we're doing right here.
	Your civil rights are being violated every single minute of every single day.
	Well, he's exactly right.
	But everybody wants to settle for a substitute.
	Everybody wants the government to control what they're afraid of.
	They want government as a savior.
	And this used to be true only of the left.
	It used to be true only of the Democrats.
	But now Trump, a Democrat, has managed to make this what the Republicans want.
	We'll be right back.
	We've got more politics on the other side and show you what Hillary Clinton wants to do to people.
	We'll be right back.

	I want to thank some of the people who have just sent checks this week.
	David and Joan F., Scott C., Jay Veronica Y., and Margaret Mary T. Thank you very much for the checks.
	I appreciate that.
	And I wanted to follow up because evidently there was still some confusion yesterday.
	I had a listener who said, you've talked about how you have an ad-free broadcast there.
	Well, we're going to make that more clear on Subscribestar right now.
	Uh, what we do is we put up the description of the show each day and we put a link to Rumble, BitChute and Odyssey.
	Those are video platforms.
	I know that Rumble has some ads in it, but we put a link there because, um, we can do closed captioning, uh, on Rumble and, uh, Travis puts up.
	So we have the original broadcast is still there.
	Right.
	And then, uh, that you're watching right now, the live broadcast, but then he posts up again.
	A rumble broadcast that has captions on it because we've had some people who would ask for closed captioning if they're hard of hearing or deaf.
	And then BitChute and Odyssey though I don't believe have any commercials on them.
	But then we have the audio podcast and it says at the end of it That it's unabridged and ad-free, but we'll make that more explicit as well.
	We'll tell people where the places are that have ads and where they aren't on Subscribestar.
	So we really do appreciate that.
	We'll try to make that more clear in the broadcast.
	But again, let's go back to the free speech issue.
	As I said, both Trump and Lala Think that they need to take control and shut down people like Hillary Clinton?
	They all think that.
	They all think that.
	And frankly, if Congress disagreed, they'd do something about it.
	But they don't.
	They all like the fact, as a matter of fact, that the social media people are censoring people.
	Both of them use that.
	Just like both of them use the IRS as a weapon, both of them use these corporations as a weapon against free speech.
	They'll hold hearings and we'll talk about when it is used against them, but they don't want to stop it.
	They don't want to enforce the first amendment.
	Here's the, here's the issue though, right?
	Trump doesn't need to take down ABC news because everybody saw how biased it was.
	And so David Muir, who's the anchor of ABC news, they're paying the price in a marketplace.
	He was like, I don't want to watch that guy anymore.
	He's disgusting.
	How biased he was.
	They've lost 12% of their audience.
	And I don't even think there were that many Trump supporters that even watched ABC news to start with.
	It's pathetic.
	They're in free fall after what they did.
	ABC news is apparently pressing the panic button in the wake of fierce criticism, because not only did everybody see his bias, but there has now been a sworn statement made by somebody who works for ABC news.
	They said that it was in the cards that they were going to rig this to weigh in on the side of Harris against Trump.
	That they had made assurances to the Democrat campaign days before the event.
	Again, now their broadcast is down by 12%.
	ABC News insists that it didn't break the debate rules.
	No topics or questions will be shared in advance with any campaigns or candidates.
	And yet, that is not what this person said under a sworn affidavit.
	Person is still anonymous, but they posted the affidavit.
	Said yesterday, ABC News made a statement regarding the whistleblower affidavit.
	The only thing ABC said was they didn't give questions or the topics to the Harris campaign.
	And look, That's the number one thing that he says there.
	First one of things.
	But these people should know what they're going to be asked.
	If you do any debate preparation, Trump just decided he's just going to wing it and improvise.
	And these are the same types of... You didn't know that you're going to get questioned about abortion?
	That's so unfair.
	I didn't know they were going to bring up abortion.
	He absolutely wasn't prepared to talk about that or anything else.
	He hadn't bothered to inform himself on the issues.
	Why?
	Because it's an identity politics campaign.
	She doesn't care about the issues, except to say, I'm going to do what he's doing.
	She adopts the conservative platform that he doesn't even know about.
	He can't even defend it, won't defend it, except when it comes to abortion.
	And then she pushes in the other direction.
	But everything else when it comes to economic policy, yeah, I'll do that.
	I'll cut the taxes on tips.
	So, the debate topics are the same in every one of these elections.
	That's why the debates are so totally useless.
	There is some value to the debates when they're starting.
	If you got, you know, a half dozen or a dozen different candidates out there, as we saw in the 2016 election at the beginning, it was interesting to see the interplay between these people and to see what things they would bring up.
	But once you get down to just two candidates, It's all boilerplate stuff.
	It's going to be the usual stuff along with, you know, her radical position on abortion, which Trump was absolutely unprepared to defend.
	So this is what the whistleblower said.
	Giving the Harris campaign sample questions to agreeing to give Harris a smaller podium and other arrangements to minimize the size differentials between Harris and Trump.
	That is something that they always do on both sides as well.
	But then the fact checking.
	That it would be done for Trump, not for LaLa.
	And that the Harris campaign gave questions to ABC that were to not be included in the debate.
	Now see, that's different.
	That's different.
	We saw the bias.
	That's why his ratings are down 12%.
	But the idea, they're going to give them things and say, don't ask questions about this.
	Like what?
	Well, about what she did as district attorney in San Francisco or her time as California attorney general.
	That's off.
	Don't ask about that.
	Out of all these accusations, the fact checking of Trump has been admitted to, well, it wasn't admitted to, we all saw it with our own eyes.
	It was pretty disgusting.
	He didn't have the ability to come back to them and say, so you're going to debate me now?
	Like I said, when I showed JD Vance did that, Dana Bash starts countering him and everything.
	Wait a minute, wait a minute.
	I'm happy to come here and answer questions, but first of all, you're not giving me a chance to answer the questions.
	And secondly, I'm not here to debate you.
	You asked me questions.
	I mean, I didn't even like to do that.
	When I have, um, when I have guests, I don't like to debate them.
	I want to find out what they know.
	We'll talk about what they had to say afterwards.
	Just like I would analyze an article or debate that they had with somebody else.
	You know, the interviewer is there to ask questions and you get the, if it's somebody that I disagree with, I mean, there's a guy who worked for all these military industrial complex organizations deeply embedded in the deep state, but he wrote a book about artificial intelligence.
	It really wasn't about artificial intelligence.
	It was about the four battlefields with China.
	Artificial intelligence was strung throughout it, so I got him on to talk about the artificial intelligence aspect of it.
	But I didn't challenge him on, you know, trying to get us into a war with China.
	I didn't challenge him on, you know, his being a part of the military-industrial complex and everything, which is what the ABC people decided that they would do.
	So again, the one-sided presidential debate that everybody saw the bias, and now they are down 12% and a drop.
	So you don't have to take away their license.
	You know, when they're really, really bad, people understand it.
	They stop watching it.
	At one point in the debate, Muir even fact-checked Trump's claim that he was sarcastic.
	I was being sarcastic.
	No, you weren't.
	We watched the tape and all this kind of stuff.
	And it's like, wow, how incredibly petty that is.
	And of course the fact checking that was coming from the woman, I forget what her name was.
	I'd never seen her before.
	I'd only seen, uh, pictures of a mirror anyway.
	I don't, I don't certainly don't watch ABC news.
	Uh, but the woman who, uh, was a fact checking him on abortion, she was just flat out lying.
	Well, Hillary Clinton.
	is back to her usual stuff and she went on to the Rachel Maddow show and of course she immediately tried to burn the country down. This is what Hillary Clinton said.
	She wants to lock you up.
	...and boosting Trump back in 2016.
	But I also think there are Americans who are engaged in this kind of propaganda.
	And whether they should be civilly or even in some cases criminally charged is something that would be a better deterrence because... Yeah, nobody should criminally charge Hillary Clinton for assassinations.
	We came, we saw, he died.
	For wreaking death and havoc around the globe.
	For her cloak-and-dagger corruption everywhere.
	No, no.
	Charges against Hillary.
	Trump doesn't want to lock her up.
	He's just a nice guy, you know?
	Yeah, well.
	So anyway, she says, Trump's politics of hate and division.
	But the U.S.' 's security in danger.
	I'm very hopeful, even optimistic, she says.
	Is there anybody other than Hillary that would attach those two adjectives to her?
	Hopeful and optimistic.
	I'm very hopeful and optimistic that Americans who do not want a continuation of this politics of hate and division will hate Trump.
	That's it.
	You're deplorable, as she says, right?
	The people that she calls deplorable need to move away from all this hateful speech.
	And of course Trump called us non-essential.
	Uh, she said Trump and his demagoguery, his danger to our country and the world.
	Uh, that's what the problem is.
	You know, he was supported by Russia.
	She's still pushing the Russia stuff.
	That's been completely debunked.
	And of course, uh, Russia was a red herring for her.
	She violated national security as well.
	You talk about somebody who's got a rap sheet of serious crimes.
	We're not going back to what he failed to do to protect American lives during COVID.
	See, again, she would have done everything that he did.
	She might have pushed it a little bit too hard.
	She might have been a little bit, you know, over the top of the rhetoric like she was right here.
	If Hillary Clinton had been there, they could have never have pulled this.
	This thing was orchestrated globally.
	That's why Trump was selected in 2016 and not Hillary.
	Because with Trump there, they could push all the COVID stuff better than they could with Hillary.
	Again, everybody stand down.
	It's Trump.
	It's 4D chess, all the rest of this stuff.
	But boy, if it had been Hillary, no way, no way.
	So she said, so we're going back to, you know, this romance with dictators.
	Romance with dictators?
	How about Zelensky?
	How about the dictators that you cozied up to?
	How about the people that you killed with bombs and sanctions?
	It puts innocent lives at risk and puts America's security in danger.
	Boy, if that doesn't describe her foreign policy, Biden's foreign policy, nothing describes it.
	So she says speech has to be criminalized and so does a congressional representative out of Dallas, Jasmine Crockett, but she's making a name for herself as well.
	A real hate speech character.
	They've called for Trump and his supporters.
	They're both calling us domestic enemies.
	I'm not a Trump supporter, but I'm not saying, no, no, not me!
	But yeah, I wind up being an enemy of both camps here.
	Clinton wants those who spread what she calls propaganda, and she knows what it is.
	She wants them thrown in jail.
	I think we noticed that for the last four years.
	People who exercise their First Amendment rights on January the 6th.
	Rotting in jail, tortured.
	Many of them committed suicide.
	Many of them are facing decades in jail.
	And they're proud of that.
	You have a right to peacefully assemble.
	You have a right to redress your grievances.
	I, to this day, don't know what the people were hoping that they were going to accomplish, if anything.
	Alex was telling them, well, we're going to make sure that one way or the other, Biden's not going to get installed as president.
	Well, I don't know how they were going to make that happen.
	It was obvious it was just a trap, but still, what they were doing, the people who were peaceful, who were now being thrown in jail, you know, elderly people who walked up to the police when the doors opened and said, is there a restroom around here?
	Yeah, it's right in here.
	Well, they're looking at years in jail.
	These are people in their 70s.
	So, she accused Trump supporters of making bomb threats and called them domestic terrorists.
	I wonder what she thinks is going on with Israel right now in these pagers, right?
	Well, they didn't threaten anybody, right?
	They just terrorized people.
	Crockett, on the other hand, the Congresswoman, spoke about the invasion of Haitian Biden migrants to Springfield, as the way that the New American phrases it.
	But she said, the city is going through hell because the guy who says he wants to be commander-in-chief is actually bringing that hell to their footsteps.
	No, not in the way that she's talking about it, but of course, as I pointed out, Trump and DeWine had both prepared the way for all these refugees to come in.
	Trump had said, we signed the paper that says that you'll take them, we'll give you cash when they come in.
	They don't sign the paper.
	Well, we won't send them directly into your state, but when they come into your state from other states, you won't have any money.
	So people like Mike DeWine, people like Governor Lee here in Tennessee signed it there at the end of December of 2019 and said, yeah, send us all your refugees.
	And so they want to say, well, because these people are black, it's racist to criticize them.
	But what about the racist aspect of the Biden administration?
	Focusing on a white Christian family.
	Or how about the fact that they completely ignore... See, it's not about skin color.
	It's really more about culture and other things.
	They don't want Christian refugees, black Christian refugees from Nigeria, who are being killed, slaughtered by the tens of thousands by Muslims.
	They don't want to bring them here as refugees.
	They would have their cultural differences for sure, but they'd get along a lot better here in America than the Haitian voodoo groups that are, you know, quite frankly, these people are just amazed that most people believe that animals are being killed and slaughtered.
	Why wouldn't we believe that?
	That is what happens all the time in Haiti.
	And you brought in a community of 20,000 people.
	That's bigger than a lot of cities in America, even in America.
	So Babylon Bee takes on Hillary Clinton.
	Hillary Clinton says the First Amendment is Russian disinformation.
	That's essentially what she's saying.
	First Amendment is just Russian disinformation.
	Created to help crooked Donald Trump with the elections, she told Matt Howell.
	I think it's clear that Trump is in cahoots with the constitutional mimic and his ever-growing march to thwart democracy.
	You know, these people who talk so much about democracy, they don't have a problem with law law being installed.
	She still hasn't done as many press conferences as the guy who is the accused second shooter of Trump.
	He's talked to the press way more than she has.
	He's done way more interviews than she has as the candidate.
	But let's not focus on that.
	Well, Klaus Schwab is calling for the usual.
	How many times is he going to call for a global collaboration?
	It's a collaboration.
	It's not a conspiracy, right?
	What's the difference between a collaboration and a conspiracy?
	To censor us.
	Anybody that they claim is involved in misinformation.
	He keeps beating the same drum.
	The narrative is clearly taken root.
	It's being parroted the world over.
	It is now a global collaboration.
	Well, I guess I'm a collaboration theorist, right?
	Is that okay if I call it a collaboration theory?
	It's not okay if I call it a conspiracy theory, but a collaboration theory, that should be okay.
	The 2023-2024 World Economic Forum report, Schwab continues to lament about the rise of what the group and its executive arms, be they governments or legacy media, choose to consider as mis- and disinformation.
	A global collaboration on this and many other selected topics, and of course we had a global collaboration when they ran the germ game on us.
	And guess who we saw was one of the collaborators?
	That quizzling Donald Trump.
	We'll be right back.
	Excellencies, ladies and gentlemen, your annual global risk report makes for a stunning and sobering read.
	For the global business community, the top concern for the next two years is not conflict or climate.
	It is disinformation and misinformation, followed closely by polarization within our society.
	In a world of deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.
	You're listening to The David Knight Show.
	Well, let's take a look at what they really thought they were going to accomplish.
	We'll take a look at that.
	There's a comic book that's out about January the 6th, and they want to send this around to high school students.
	You know, it's very effective to do that, to propagandize high school.
	You get a lot of bang for your buck.
	It's like buying a politician.
	Well, Jonathan Turley talks about the urge of people like Hillary Clinton, of Congresswoman Crockett, Of La La, and even of Trump, to demonize their enemies.
	Of course, he doesn't mention Trump.
	He only mentions the Democrats.
	But he's written a book called The Age of Rage, Free Speech in the Age of Rage.
	And he says the full title is The Indispensable Right, Free Speech in an Age of Rage.
	He says 26 million Americans believe that political violence is justified, including Hillary, including Crockett.
	And of course, censorship is justified according to La La and Trump as well.
	He says, in my book, I say we've seen an increasing level of rage rhetoric in our political system, for some violent language can become violent action.
	And of course, that picture that's there, scroll down a little bit, that's the caning that happened just before the Civil War.
	And that's really where we are right now.
	He quotes from the book, he says, we're living in an age of rage.
	It permeates every aspect of our society and politics.
	Rage is liberating.
	Rage is even addictive.
	It allows us to say and do things that we would ordinarily avoid, even denouncing in others.
	Rage is often found at the farthest extremes of reason.
	For those who agree with the underlying message, it's righteous, it's passionate.
	And for those who disagree, it's dangerous, it's destabilizing.
	And all that is polarizing.
	But you know, rage sells.
	That's really kind of, you know, been the whole thing that Alex always did.
	Much of it fake rage as he tells people.
	He says, I can just turn it on, I can turn it off, but, you know, I can make myself really angry, I can just turn that on.
	But it really does sell.
	People want to see it.
	He says, it's now common to hear inflammatory language from professors who are advocating detonating white people, quote-unquote, I guess give them a pager.
	Denouncing police, calling for Republicans to suffer, strangling police officers, celebrating the death of conservatives, calling for killing of Trump supporters, supporting the murder of conservative protesters, and other outrageous statements.
	And for each of those, in his article here, he's got a link for when that has happened.
	He's not just throwing this stuff out.
	So he said, while Democrat leaders have condemned the second assassination attempt on Trump, They've continued the unhinged rhetoric of how this might be our last election and democracy is about to die in America.
	Now, I like Jonathan Turley, but did he not notice that same rhetoric all the time with the people on the MAGA right?
	This is what I mean.
	We have two different worlds of media out there.
	Uh, you go to the mainstream media and they will, um, go to the Trump rallies or other demonstrations or whatever, and they'll put the man on the street microphone in somebody's face.
	And you hear them saying this all, well, this is our last chance.
	This is the most important election of our lifetime.
	And it's our LA and now they're saying, this is our last election.
	If our guy doesn't win and the MAGA people are saying it.
	And it's Jonathan Turley is pointing out and others have pointed out who are the right wing media.
	The left is saying it as well.
	There's not anybody that's telling them, hey, both of you think that your whole life depends on who wins this election.
	Chill out!
	It doesn't!
	Because both of these people are the uniparty and they're not going to change the fundamental things about it.
	Both of them are after you.
	Both of them have pushed wars and coups and pandemics and germ games.
	They want to censor your speech, everything.
	Stop with the fantasy politics game.
	It's on both sides, but, um, they don't, they don't hear.
	They only think the other side wants to fight.
	But they both do.
	And again, this is just a symptom of placing all your hope for a better life on what happens in the presidency.
	And these politicians, he said, are playing a very dangerous game.
	That is the dangerous game.
	That's far more important than the speech of saying, we're going to do this.
	The idea that, you know, because look, all of this violence and everything only makes sense in a context of where all their hope is placed on who wins the presidency.
	And if they didn't have that kind of mindset, that wouldn't really have any power.
	And so when you look at USA Today, They focus on the crazy, violent Republicans, just as Jonathan Turley talked about the crazy, violent Democrats.
	And yes, they're both right, but they won't say it about their tribe.
	It's only about the other tribe.
	So here's a headline.
	14% of Republicans would take action to overturn the election if Trump loses.
	A study finds.
	So what is that saying?
	Now in this, they also find that Democrats, Would do that as well.
	But they focus on the Republicans, even though they do mention further down the article that Democrats would do that.
	And they're implying that to take action would be violence.
	Well, why is that implied?
	Why is some kind of a civil war something, a violent civil war, why is that implied?
	Now, you can take a lot of action to contest an election.
	But you have 14% of Republicans who are determined already that Trump has won the election.
	Nearly half of Republicans say that they won't accept the results of the presidential election if their candidate loses.
	Some of them say they would take action to overturn the results, according to data released on Tuesday, says USA Today.
	About a quarter of Democrats said they wouldn't accept the results if their candidate loses.
	Fewer Democrats than Republicans said that they would take action to overturn the results.
	But see, USA Today makes it all about Republicans.
	Yeah, the Republicans, according to that study, were more likely to not go along with their candidate losing.
	And according to that study, more of them were willing to take action.
	But it doesn't mean that either one of these are violent, but they keep pushing that.
	So, you know, it's still minority.
	But as I keep trying to explain to people, the presidential election is not the hill to die on.
	These people, Won't even speak out.
	These people who wanted to go to January 6th and stuff, some of them spoke out.
	But if you spoke out and if you really were opposed, if you really understood that Trump was funding what happened in 2020, why would you support him?
	I was telling people when I was still at Infowars, I said, I'm not voting.
	I'm not voting because I wasn't ruled for the last nine months by anybody that I voted for.
	They all turned the government over to public health bureaucrats who were issuing dictates.
	I said, we've been under medical martial law and it's our elected officials who turned it over to them for no good reason.
	And so I'm not voting for any of these elected officials.
	And I'm not going to vote for the Democrats trying to replace them in Texas either.
	So I said, I'm not voting.
	I don't have anything to vote for.
	Why you, you were, it was just medical martial law, bureaucratic rule.
	So what does the election even mean?
	And these people who wanted to stake their lives on somehow keeping Donald Trump in office.
	It's like, well, why, why he was complicit in all of this stuff, um, medical martial law and medical murder.
	So, um, Again, you have a right to peacefully assemble.
	You have a right to redress your grievances.
	But what was this thing even supposed to be about?
	It made absolutely no sense.
	So we got a professor who is a real piece of work.
	He's a Harvard Law professor.
	He co-authored a graphic novel about January 6th insurrection.
	And he has sent free copies of it to every government high school in Pennsylvania.
	Alan Jenkins, formerly president of the Harvard Social Justice Communication Lab.
	Justice is something that doesn't need any adjectives, so we're talking about Marxism here.
	And his co-author sent out copies of his graphic novel, he calls it One Slash Six, to convey the risks that are facing American democracy.
	He said the forces that led to insurrection, to the white supremacy, to disinformation are all very much still with us, he said.
	And he added that he hopes students will see January 6th as not unlike the 9-11 terrorist attacks.
	Well, it was an inside job.
	Because that's the one thing they did have in common.
	It was a masterpiece of propaganda.
	But the other shooter drop from 9-11 was the lockdown, the pandemic, and the vaccines.
	It wasn't January the 6th, but it was something that was a deceptive scam.
	He said, we think the truth always is stronger than censorship.
	But what is true in his graphic novel?
	Well, actually nothing, really.
	Here's a sample from the first issue.
	He talks about a society controlled by armed militias who take over a TV network, declaring it to be the enemy of freedom.
	Did any of that happen?
	No, no.
	These insurrectionists were not armed.
	At a Patriots parade, a speaker blasts, quote, thugs and criminals from Black Lives Matter, unquote.
	While adherents repeat white nationalist slogans with the phrases, blood and soil.
	Did that still happen?
	No.
	Blood and soil is something they keep trying to put it on a Newsweek or Time cover or one of the headlines.
	And they had to retract it because that's a slogan that the left knows.
	I don't hang around with neo-Nazis or any of that.
	And that's not something that People on the right talk about it all.
	And he also puts in word bubbles, I will not be replaced.
	So the people there are shouting blood and soil as they did on January the 6th, right?
	Never happened.
	Never happened.
	Is this disinformation?
	Well, no, of course not.
	No.
	Dissidents work covertly, avoiding the militia's enforcing curfew while transporting Electoral College ballots, the last evidence of our democracy.
	This guy is not only a liar, he's unbelievably stupid.
	There are no ballots taken with the Electoral College.
	There's nothing physical that happens with any of that stuff.
	I explained that, and when I said, you know, on December 14th, I said, this is just grifting.
	Today, December 14th, I said, the Electoral College results were called in, state by state.
	They didn't meet anywhere.
	They didn't have, they didn't send ballots anywhere.
	They had already sent the stuff, December the 14th.
	There weren't any physical ballots.
	This is as deranged, stupid, and as big a lie as what Steve Pucinich was telling everybody two days after the election.
	To kick off, stop the steal.
	He said, yeah, we got blockchain watermark ballots.
	Total nonsense.
	Oh, they confiscated the electoral college ballots.
	This is being sent to high school students who don't know any better.
	This is pure propaganda from, uh, from this guy.
	It's just, just amazing.
	So, um, I have a couple of comments here on rock fan, uh, Dustin Helm.
	Thank you very much for the tip and on rumble Prince's wrong thing.
	Thank you as well.
	And she thanks us.
	Well, thank you very much.
	On RumbleTeamAirsoft.com.
	Thank you for the tip.
	What is the name of the Christian alternative to health insurance you use, David?
	I have a co-worker whose mom is really going through it, and she doesn't have insurance.
	Prayers and advice would help.
	Well, we've used two of them in the past.
	Samaritan Ministries is one.
	And what was it, Christian Share, Medicare, I think is another one.
	There's also one that has liberty in the title.
	You don't have to be a Christian.
	One of the things that we liked about the Christian things, and my sons still use them, but we're now old enough that we've got supplemental Medicare insurance and that type of thing.
	Well, before I talk about that, just how it works.
	What we like about these Christian ministries, and they had to carve out an Obamacare so that you don't get penalized if you have that instead of health insurance.
	But what they do is they pass you, you talk to them and you get your need approved.
	And then you go and have the procedure, whatever it is that you need done.
	And of course, if it's an emergency procedure, they may handle that as well.
	But they authorize what you're going to do, which is a good thing.
	And then they just get like a fee, a small nominal fee, like a hundred and something dollars.
	I don't know what it is right now because we haven't done it for a couple of years, but it used to be like $150, $170 I think.
	They, uh, they do that for administering it.
	And then what they do is they, uh, give, they publish your need to certain people.
	So if you've got X amount of dollars, then they send it to appropriate number of people.
	Uh, and each month you send your check directly to somebody else.
	And so you can send along a card.
	You can let them know that you're praying for them.
	It's a voluntary ministry.
	They're just coordinating it.
	They get a small administrative fee once a year for doing that.
	And then the payment that you get is directly from people.
	Who have been told what the situation is and they send their monthly share, you know, it's like you think of it as an insurance premium, but they send their monthly share to a particular family and they tell you what the condition is.
	And so both of those ministries are set up that way.
	I don't know how the other one that is set up on a voluntary basis, you don't have to be a Christian to be in the other ones.
	They will ask you, they have a questionnaire that they have the pastor or the church leader where you can sign it, say that, yeah, this person, just to affirm that you are a Christian to have some independent third party affirm that you're a Christian.
	We found that it works really well.
	And what I was going to say, but that I said, well, I'll get to that in a second.
	What we've found since we've been on this Medicare and supplement stuff is that they want to push everything under the sun on us.
	They don't do that.
	If you're a cash patient, you go in as a cash patient and they say, well, um, normally we would do this, this, and this, but it's not really necessary.
	So we won't do that.
	It's like, yeah, that's great.
	And years before all of this stuff happened, before Obamacare and all the rest of this happened, I remember there was a story that was done by the LA Times of all things.
	And they were trying to push government healthcare as a solution.
	So they were critical of the insurance industry and they were critical of how the hospitals were operating and that type of thing.
	But what they did, which was very telling, they looked at cash patients and they looked at people who had corporate health insurance.
	And they said, um, that the people who had health insurance, you know, for their, through their company or whatever, they wound up paying more.
	Uh, when they just pay the deductible, their deductible was more than what the cash patients were typically paid because the hospitals are just ramping it up for the insurance companies, deep pockets, and we will take it all.
	And so that's the way the thing was.
	So you wind up, it saves you from having some unnecessary procedures done.
	a bottom line, and that's a very important thing.
	But the most important thing is that you've got Christians out there who are going to be praying for you.
	And I like the fact that you send your contribution directly to the person.
	So, Samaritan Ministries, I think it's Metashare, but you can find them if you look for them.
	You can Google that.
	We're going to take a quick break and we'll be right back.
	You're listening to The David Knight Show.
	Bye.
	Yesterday I thanked some of the people in Week 1 who helped us in terms of donations.
	I want to, Ansel, let me get to Week 2 donors today.
	I'll go through this real quickly.
	Felicia H, Peter H, Michael P, Sean S, Manny D, Susan L, Linda M, Alex C, Matthew S, Aaron G, Raymond G, Benjamin R, John B, a new supporter, William R, James O, and Robert B, also a new supporter.
	And thank you so much, all of you, and we have Several people on here, I mean, it ranges from $5 to a couple hundred dollars, and the people who are supporting us, it's just amazing to see the same names over and over again.
	Again, we had two of them in the second week, two supporters that were new, but we really do appreciate the continuing support of people.
	If you have a A bank that supports Zelle payments, where you can send money to other people.
	It's free to send that.
	There's no fee to the sender or the receiver.
	And if your bank supports Zelle, you can just use the email for our show, davidknightshow at protonmail.com.
	That's all you need to know to send a contribution if you would like to do that.
	But we really do appreciate that.
	Those are the people who make this program possible.
	Otherwise, we couldn't do this.
	And so, thank you very much.
	I really do appreciate that.
	Let's talk a little bit about what's going on with schooling, because I'm seeing, it's amazing, I have, in the last couple of weeks, I've seen about four different op-ed pieces on four different sites that are targeted towards Christians.
	Whether it's Christianity Today or it's Christian Post or whatever, these are people who are pushing back, as this title of this article says, why I'm pushing back against condemning public school.
	Well, I'm going to push back and I'm going to condemn public school because public school is a Marxist construct just like public health is.
	Both of them are the same thing.
	Public school and, you know, a taxpayer-supported compulsory education.
	Compulsory schooling, I should say, not education, because they're different things.
	Tax-supported, compulsory schooling was a tenet of the Communist Party in the early 20th century.
	And that's what this is!
	How, as a Christian, do you even support the way the government schools are funded?
	With theft.
	Christians, always in the past, education was, before we started doing this in the 20th century, and the past, education was done with private schools.
	If somebody was rich, they would pay for it.
	Or it was done with church schools.
	That was something that Christians supported.
	Or parents did it themselves.
	You go back and look at the founders of this country, go back and look at America in 1776, there wasn't any government school.
	These people were home educated.
	The Wright brothers are home educated, a couple of homeschooled bicycle mechanics who, who beat the guy Langley, who was this, you know, he was kind of the, uh, the Fauci of his day and not, um, that, uh, he was necessarily evil.
	I don't know if he did anything evil like Fauci, but he was as well known and celebrated as Fauci is by the establishment.
	He was head of the Smithsonian.
	All I can say, he couldn't get his plane off the ground, but these bicycle mechanics who are homeschooled could look, that's the way everybody was.
	Everybody was that way.
	Why is it that we've got Christians now who are so hell-bent, and that's really where it's coming from, why are they so hell-bent on pushing people into these government indoctrination centers?
	Just one article after another.
	And so she begins her article, this person is Kaylee Harms, That's her name, actually.
	Not a description of her writing, but Cayley does harm with this kind of writing, I think.
	She begins it by quoting Votibachum.
	He says, he thundered it out this way.
	We cannot continue to send our children to Caesar for their education and be surprised when they come home as Romans.
	Uh-huh.
	Yeah.
	He nailed it.
	He nailed it.
	Render to Caesar what is due.
	But when it comes to your children, render to your children what is due to them as a parent.
	Huge percentages of well-known conservative pundits, she says, echo this sentiment.
	If you love your children, you'll get them out of public schools as soon as possible.
	That's what I say.
	And then you will shut down, if you love your neighbor, you will shut down the public schools.
	You'll stop the theft.
	Most of our property tax.
	You want to know why we can't get rid of property taxes?
	Why you can never own property?
	Because of the Marxist school institutions that are out there.
	And they're not just Marxist.
	It's gone full Brave New World.
	All kinds of debauchery and propaganda now.
	Sexualized Marxist education.
	Why are we paying for this?
	Why do we have Christian writers who are pushing for this?
	So she says, so here's my points.
	Number one, homeschool and or private schooling.
	Let's see who comes after the church is educating kids.
	She wants the government educating kids.
	And she does this as a, you know, pushing this as a professing Christian homeschool and or private schooling are not surefire solutions to the culture wars.
	Um, well, nothing is a surefire solution, but you are, The culture wars are coming at us largely through the institution of education.
	It's these institutions that are waging the culture war.
	And one of the primary fronts on this culture war is the school.
	And so, she says, sheltering kids isn't the same as equipping kids.
	Well, you know, look, just as we don't make Christians, Right?
	We are not capable of making Christians.
	God does that.
	That's what he does.
	But I just have to say, when she says sheltering kids, you know where she's coming from, right?
	Oh, well, you've got to put them out there in the battlefield.
	You've got to have them be salt and light.
	We're going to have a children's crusade to take back the culture war.
	She just said that homeschooling, private schooling are not the answers to the culture war.
	She thinks putting your kids under the tutelage of the people who are running the culture war, embedding them with the enemy.
	That's the tool of the culture war.
	So she wants to fight the culture war with your kids.
	And she talks about sheltering kids.
	Isn't the same as equipping kids.
	Well, are the public school kids sheltered?
	Are they sheltered?
	Are they sequestered?
	Yes, they are.
	They are.
	They're brought into that tribe.
	But this is just really kind of a rehashing of the old socialization argument.
	And as I've always said, homeschooled kids are better socialized and a better mix.
	They don't have this rigid age segregation.
	All the homeschooling kids that I've seen, one thing that, you know, they're not perfect.
	They're all over the place, right?
	And you get all kinds of different results.
	Homeschooling is not a guarantee.
	Not at all.
	I wish we knew a guarantee.
	It's just an approach.
	that is more likely to produce better results and not to lead your kids into temptation.
	But I've seen Christian homeschool kids, I think, are far better adjusted socially.
	They don't have a problem talking to adults.
	They don't have a problem talking to kids that are a year older than them.
	They don't have a problem talking to kids that are a year younger than them.
	And that's not what you see in the rigidly age-segregated, dominated classrooms of the schools.
	She said, Christians are called to take authority, to live boldly, to conquer strongholds, not to wring our hands or roll over and die.
	Well, that's because that's what you need to do.
	You're not called to do that with your kids.
	You're called to do that as a parent.
	So she said, we can run for school board.
	We can join the PTA.
	We can show up at a district meeting.
	And you can be patronized and ignored and arrested even if you get upset about it, or you could take care of your kids.
	You can focus on your kids.
	Christians should not care about the well-being of all kids.
	Christians should care about the well-being of all kids, not just our own.
	Well, that's why I want to end government schools.
	It is a building on fire.
	I like Alex Newman's analogy, you get your kids out of that burning building and then you shut down that fire before it burns down and kills all the rest of the kids and burns down the neighborhood.
	So she says, the carelessness of those who would condemn parents without other options.
	There are plenty of options.
	You're pretending, that she's pretending, that there aren't tons of options.
	There's so many options in the way that you can educate your child.
	You know, by the way, everybody got a taste of homeschooling during the pandemic anyway, to see all these different options.
	Is government-supported schools, though, by tax, the ideal of the communist, how is that an option?
	You know, that's a new idea.
	For a millennium, multiple millenniums, we educated kids completely differently.
	We took responsibility for it.
	We did it with our families.
	We did it with our churches.
	But now, she wants the government to do it.
	This is what has happened to conservatives.
	This is what's happened to Christians.
	Government is your savior.
	And we need Trump to run the government, to make sure that it's going to be our savior.
	She said, some parents make terrible teachers.
	Are you serious?
	Have you seen the teachers on TikTok?
	Yeah, well, you know, what is it that we're trying to teach kids?
	What is the purpose of education?
	Is the purpose of education math and English only?
	Because they're not even concerned about math and English in the schools now.
	Not in the least.
	So, then she starts to get really worked up.
	She calls people who want to raise their kids that God gave them as a responsibility.
	She wants to call those people self-righteous, judgmental Pharisees.
	She might want to look into the mirror.
	I'm not telling people what they have to do, but I'm saying that I don't want Caesar seizing my home, because I don't support these brave new schools.
	They absolutely disgust me.
	And here's an example of where we are with the—oops, I got the wrong thing there.
	When we look at these schools and what they're teaching, It is not just the... Sorry, hang on one second.
	Let's talk about socialization thing first.
	This just came out from a study finds yesterday.
	Growing up alone, shocking number of parents say that their kids have no friends.
	Wait a minute, they're talking about the kids that are going to school.
	Let's talk about that socialization thing.
	How is that working out?
	In the bustling playground of childhood, this is a fantasy about what life was like a few years ago.
	I don't see playgrounds bustling.
	They weren't all that bustling before everything got locked down.
	I don't see anybody out playing in the yards, doing anything.
	Everybody is sitting in their home, watching TV or mostly interacting with social media.
	And so that's why they're growing up alone.
	It's also the fact that most families used to have two to five kids, and now it's down to one.
	That's right.
	That's right.
	There's just not that many kids anymore.
	That's right.
	Yeah.
	They're growing up alone because they don't have siblings.
	They're growing up alone because they're isolated, socially isolated.
	And these are the kids who are going to school, the kids who are going to school.
	are focused more on social media in many cases than they are even on their schoolmates here.
	A University of Michigan health professor did the study and said, imagine being a kid without a buddy to share your favorite video game with or someone to sit next to on the school bus.
	That's a reality for more children than we might think.
	A poll of 1,000 parents with kids between the ages of 6 and 12 years old reveal that 20% of the kids in the government schools feel lonely or isolated during crucial years of social development.
	About 1 in 5 parents cited shyness or social awkwardness as the main obstacle.
	Another 15% of parents pointed to the bullying by other children as a barrier.
	Less than 10% mentioned medical conditions or disabilities as a challenge.
	This has always been there.
	It's always been a part of it.
	But they want to claim that if you go to school, everything is wonderful.
	And that is part of growing up, is learning how to interact with people.
	But they said, well, the big problem is that parents have to be careful about social media.
	Because social media is really where the issues are coming in, regardless of how you educate your child.
	If you homeschool your child, you send them to a Christian school, a private school, or whatever, or if you send them to the government school, what are you going to see for the most part?
	Well, you're going to start to see changes, not just about the people that they're with or the teachers that they're under, But of course, even when they look at entertainment, this is the kind of thing they're going to see.
	Disney's got a new show that's going to be coming out.
	Of course, it's about witchcraft and magic, but it's getting darker and more and more like the real thing.
	And as this Variety reporter was interviewing the women starring in this, this is what they had to say.
	The chemistry between you and Catherine in the first episode, I describe it as law and order.
	That guy is rioting.
	Meets bound.
	Go on.
	You're speaking my language.
	All of that.
	Yes.
	More, more, more.
	Yeah, 100%.
	100%.
	Gayer and gayer as each episode goes.
	Yes, darling, but I can't tell you how.
	I can't tell you anything.
	But yes, it will be a gay explosion by the end of it.
	It's been described as the gayest Marvel project ever.
	Do you agree?
	I mean, I think it's pretty, well, what is the most exciting about it is that that's not exactly what it's about.
	It's so normalized, but yeah, I definitely think it is.
	It's been described to me that Agatha is the gayest Project Marvel has ever done.
	Agree?
	I would agree with that, yeah.
	Why is it?
	You'll see.
	You'll see when you watch it.
	But, you know, I think witches are queer inherently just because we are outcast and, like, set aside for many reasons.
	And I think this show shows a really good representation of different types of people and that we can all use the power we have within to, like, go forth and be great.
	Yeah, it's just about tolerance and diversity, isn't it?
	Well, no, they were pointing out it's all about sex, really, you know.
	This sounds like a combination, and he mentions a bunch of very explicit sexual films, and she says, yeah, it's all of that.
	Isn't that great?
	That's what I signed up for.
	Well, I got a comment here on Rumble from Princess Wrongthink.
	She says, my son's dad passed away when he was five, hit by a drunk driver.
	I'm so sorry.
	And I got custody of my nephew around the same time.
	Homeschooled them both by myself and had to work.
	They're 23 and 24 now.
	Good for you.
	Good for you.
	Thank you for doing that.
	It is possible.
	And there are structures out there.
	More and more.
	We had homeschooling groups where families would get together, kids could socialize.
	We had that.
	All the kids are growing up.
	There's a lot more of that out there now.
	A lot more of it.
	So, this article, the state snatched away my widow's teen daughter, a statue, not mine, but snatched away a widow's teen daughter to transition her.
	This is in California.
	She lost her daughter to the foster care system in 2016 because she wouldn't support the then 14-year-old girl who was then identifying as a boy.
	She said, I lost my husband, but this is worse than losing my husband because I had my rights taken away, she said.
	Years later, the daughter regrets attempting to become a boy, and her mother warns other parents against allowing minors to make irreversible changes to their bodies that the schools will push on them.
	The mother of two, whose husband had died years earlier, was accused of emotional abuse for forbidding her teenage daughters from binding their chest, wearing male clothes.
	Not daughters, just one daughter.
	Her daughter was taken from the family and put into a foster home.
	It was incredibly hard, said the mom, who asked to remain anonymous to protect the privacy of her daughter.
	I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy.
	And it lasted for months before she came back.
	The Daily Signal reviewed L.A.
	County Department of Child and Family Services documentation, which the social worker referring to the then 14-year-old with he, him pronouns and with a male name.
	That's the way they referred to it in L.A.
	They wanted to encourage this.
	They detail the daughter's time in foster care, her accusations of emotional abuse against her mother, and her later renunciation of those claims.
	Again, the gaslighting of gender is a completely new thing.
	The arguments against school have changed so rapidly in the last few years, that when people coming in start using these arguments that I heard that were not substantive, were not true decades ago, that's not even the issue now.
	They clearly don't know what's going on, just as the article I read the other day of a mother whose kids are toddlers.
	And she's trying to imagine what school was like when she was there.
	She has no clue.
	So the mother had to hire lawyers to regain custody of her daughter and to clear her name from abuse charges because that would have disqualified her from working in her career as a Christian counselor.
	After a few months in a packed foster home in a dangerous neighborhood, the daughter asked to come home and admitted to lying about the abuse, saying that she got the idea to accuse her mother of abuse from people online.
	That's why I said social media is the core of this.
	And social media is one of the things that is really, it's not just the teachers and the schools, it's social media that is weaponizing the kids.
	And even if you are homeschooling them today, if you don't control social media, I've seen it happen in homeschooling families.
	You know, she said, well, it's no guarantee that this is going to happen.
	Certainly there is no guarantee.
	You know, what we're trying to do is we're trying to raise kids that are honorable.
	We're trying to raise kids that have a relationship or want a relationship with God, but that is between them and God.
	But if they've got a relationship with social media, That is going to be your biggest obstacle right there.
	And that can come in regardless of the form of your education.
	The mother hired two attorneys to get her teenager back clear her name She said she felt like child protective services was looking for reasons to tear her family apart. Yep It was not about reunification. She said It was more about, what can we do to this family to destroy them?
	They're at war.
	It's the same kind of thing we're talking about the State Department, this attitude to what's going on in Ukraine, or its attitude with what's going on in the Middle East.
	What can we do to escalate this?
	We're not trying to solve any problems here.
	We're not trying to make peace.
	We're not trying to reunify a family.
	We want to go to war.
	After the daughter returned home, she called social workers on her mother a few more times, accusing her mom of abuse for refusing to buy her male clothing.
	The mother received a California Child Abuse Central Index violation for declining to take her daughter to a program at the LA LGBT Center.
	For kids between the ages of 2, 2 years old to 25.
	Because you know the kids at 2 know all about sex and gender and they know they're in the wrong body, right?
	Unbelievable.
	She said, I found that she was connecting with some other kids and her demeanor then became even worse, even more rebellion, even more defiant.
	I made the call and I'm not going to drive you there.
	And that's when the social worker wanted to interview me.
	And because I didn't do that, I immediately got a second hit for emotional abuse.
	I just found it really crazy that they couldn't, could deem that as emotionally abusive, trying to discipline your child.
	The mom said she couldn't have gotten through the difficult time without her faith community, so she left California a few years ago, partially because of how her parental rights were disrespected there.
	Fifteen years ago, I worked on this.
	We could see it happening with the courts and many other places, but now it is being weaponized by the state legislatures, by the governors in states like California, and in states like Minnesota, where Tim Walz Is governor.
	And, um, and this, um, they've got multiple examples of this in California.
	Uh, another person who, um, uh, was attacked in California and then moved to Minnesota and out of the frying pan into the fire, you know, no difference at all there.
	Uh, according to that mother also social media played a huge role in her daughter's decision to become a boy.
	She said that she regrets what she put me through.
	She's sorry that she did it, but she urges other parents in similar situations to limit their child's phone usage, find support system, never give up on the family.
	And so what else do they get?
	You know, we talk about education and again, education is about indoctrination.
	Now it's about political indoctrination.
	It's about gender gaslighting, but maybe the old stuff about reading, writing arithmetic.
	Well, in the UK, arithmetic is out, climate change is in.
	And they do it in the name of protecting the students' mental health.
	You know, when we talk about what is education, it's about values, it's about worldview, it's about other things like that, primarily.
	But we also want to give them the tools to be able to learn, right?
	Education is not about filling a bucket, it's about lighting a fire.
	You're trying to equip them with the tools of learning so they can pursue what they're interested in.
	But you want to do that in a context of raising them.
	with a biblical worldview with values that are going to serve them.
	So they're not to the best of your ability at war with God and rebellion with God.
	One of the goals of the Conservative Party in the UK, they said, was to up the competency in math and English to give kids the skills that they need for the future.
	But they won't even do that.
	They want them dumbed down and dependent on the government.
	And they want to use sex and drugs and Marxism to divide and conquer and to create dependency.
	The conservatives talked about it, but they never did anything about it.
	They had an idea.
	They had a concept, but they never did anything.
	And now the labor unions want to shut down even any talk of doing that.
	And the idea that they came up with, but they never implemented, was for every student, through the entire time they're in school, every year they would be taking a class in math and English up to the age of 18.
	But they never did it.
	And now the labor unions are saying, get rid of that goal.
	Labor unions want to see compulsory testing on multiplication tables for elementary school students scrapped.
	Because, you know, who wants skilled, educated people?
	They might figure out they don't need labor unions.
	And they don't need a labor party, right?
	So the multiplication tables check, as it was called, was an online test that all students between the ages of eight and nine take.
	It was 25 questions on the times table and a three second pause between each one.
	It was introduced in 2018.
	Last year, 29% of the students scored full marks.
	Only 29% could do the multiplication tables.
	But we don't want to do that.
	It could stress out the kids, they say.
	Mastering the times table by the age of nine?
	Doing phonics?
	Screening tests?
	No, they want to shut all that down because they don't want kids who can even multiply.
	Right?
	I mean, how are they going to fool us with the MacGuffins if we can do critical thinking?
	If we can check their numbers.
	If we have some context of being able to analyze this.
	No, no.
	They want people who are dumbed down and compliant.
	Government schools are the institutions to do that kind of social engineering.
	Teachers insist that the tests are unnecessary stressors for children.
	Another unnecessary stressor is homework.
	A secondary school teacher in London said, I'm a teacher and I believe homework should be banned.
	Well, as a former homeschooling parent, I think all studies should be homework.
	But she referenced the state of California, because they're already doing it.
	California is even taking the lead over the UK in terms of shutting down homework.
	And so they're doing this in the name.
	They don't want kids stressed about homework.
	They don't want kids stressed about tests.
	What do they want them stressed about?
	They do want them stressed, by the way.
	They want them stressed about the climate.
	They want them to believe that they're all going to die.
	They want them to believe that there's no point in having children.
	I pointed that out yesterday.
	A 26-year-old who said, I would love to have a big family, but with all the stuff that's coming, the climate change and everything, I just can't bring somebody in.
	And I can't do anything about any of this stuff.
	I have no control over these people.
	That's the reason that the Marxists are pushing this climate stuff.
	Not only so that it empowers them to take us down into a serfdom, poverty, austerity, slavery, but it also gives them a justification for doing all that, for taking control of other people's lives.
	Because those other people who are out there careless and they don't care about their emissions, they're going to kill you.
	They're going to kill everybody.
	Just like the people who don't care about their emissions because they don't wear masks.
	They're going to kill everybody too, right?
	So you've got to control the other person.
	The mask isn't for you, it's for the other person has to wear it.
	So they want to replace grammar with, I guess we could call it climate change scrambling around here.
	We're not saying let's abandon knowledge, but there's an awful lot in these primary curriculum.
	Do we really need primary children to know all about modal verbs and fronted adverbials?
	Don't worry, they haven't got a clue about any of that kind of stuff.
	They don't even know what a verb is.
	They are blissfully ignorant, they're dumbed down, and they'll do whatever your experts tell them to do.
	I said, don't worry about math, just worry about the fact that we're all going to die because the scientists have told us that.
	According to Save the Children UK, 70% of the children are worried about the world that they will inherit.
	So only 29% of them know the multiplication tables.
	But they can't take a critical look at science without that, without being able to read.
	Save the Children in 2022 quoted one child as saying, and listen to this, this is exactly what that 26-year-old said.
	The article I read yesterday, the day before.
	A lot of the time we can feel powerless and out of control.
	Because of things that we can't control.
	The heat waves, the storms really worry me because they are a clear sign of the consequences of inaction or of action by humans.
	They're taught to fear and hate their fellow man.
	They're taught that the solution to all this stuff is to be found in government.
	And of course the conservatives believe that as well.
	They just have a different set of problems.
	They want government to fix.
	And some conservatives think that government can fix the problems by running the schools.
	That's really how we got the school system in the first place.
	We had a lot of people who just felt that, well, we don't want to have church schools out there.
	I don't like what that church is teaching, so we want the government to do it, because I'm going to control what the school teaches, and they're going to teach the stuff that I like.
	And now those conservatives are finding that it doesn't work that way.
	But that's the same thing the 26-year-old woman said.
	I feel powerless and out of control, and we've got to be empowered by the government.
	Climate anxiety, unlike the anxiety you have when you're taking a multiplication test or when you're doing your homework, climate anxiety is good.
	Caroline Hickman of the University of Bath said she identifies herself as a climate anxiety expert.
	And she says the state of alarm is actually a good thing.
	She said, why wouldn't children worry when they look at the state the world is currently in?
	An increase in climate disasters on track to become worse and deepening in inequality.
	They're aware that this is the world that they're growing up in and it seems like no one is taking their concerns seriously.
	How dare you?
	How dare you?
	Right?
	We're raising, send your kids to the government institutions so they can turn them into little Greta Thunbergs.
	Send them there so that they can transgender, you know, gaslight them, telling them they're in the wrong body.
	Send them there so they can get the drugs and the sex for free as they want to do it in these brave new schools.
	And send them there so that you can get them to be cheerleaders for big Marxist government.
	Send them there so that you can divide them by skin color and everything else." She said, children care about the world and what's happening.
	These figures reflect exactly that.
	Their response is natural.
	In fact, their response is healthy.
	This kind of anxiety is great.
	We want to have more of it, she says.
	So, that's the world that we live in.
	We need to take a careful look at it and understand what is really happening.
	I see that Travis has just told me, police have found explosives in a car near Trump's rally on Long Island.
	It just keeps going.
	What's going to happen is, every time they do that, he goes up in the polls.
	So to me, I hope nothing happens to him.
	But for me, this is like the law fair that is being run against him, and nothing is ever as it appears.
	Just understand that.
	On Rumble, Jungle Music, thank you for the tip.
	Hi, David.
	I would love it if you listed the programs you used to make your music.
	My only plus from public school was years in orchestra, and I would like to try my hand at composing something.
	God bless.
	I got to say, that's the only experience that I had in government school that I enjoyed.
	The only one.
	And I arranged it so that in my senior year, six out of seven hours, I was in the band room.
	Even if it meant that I was quote-unquote an assistant to the band director.
	I only took English in my senior year.
	That's why I had it.
	A lot of work to do to catch up to get into engineering, but it was, uh, I was just done.
	I wanted to get out of there as soon as I could.
	And I loved, uh, I love the music stuff and did that a lot.
	But, um, yeah, what I use is, um, somebody had asked me once before about the keyboard I use, and I didn't really think about it at the time when I answered.
	But, you know, there's a lot of keyboards out there that have sounds that are built into them.
	I don't use that.
	I just have a MIDI keyboard.
	All it does is tell the computer what key was pressed and how hard it was pressed.
	And then the rest of it takes place in the digital audio workstation.
	And there's a lot of them out there.
	I had a listener who was very kind and offered me, after I'd been using this other program, he offered me one that was a very expensive program.
	It was a very good program.
	I didn't go with it initially because of the cost.
	I found one that was free.
	It's called Reaper.
	You can use it for free.
	If you're using it for work, you can pay them... I think it was $65 or something I paid them, and then you've got like a lifetime license to it.
	And within Reaper, that's where the MIDI signals go, and then you can get music libraries of the different instruments.
	They're virtual instruments, and as you play the keyboard in different ways, then it plays the instrument in that way.
	And it sounds very simple, but it gets a bit complicated because if you want it to sound realistic, if it's not a keyboard that you're playing, if it's some kind of a wind instrument, Then it becomes a little bit more interesting to make it sound realistic because you have to adjust the, you have to phrase it properly, but you also have to have something, you have to switch back and forth between different articulations for it to get the, you know, whatever, how we want to start the note, how we want to play the note.
	In other words, is it a sharp note?
	Is it legato?
	Is it a long sustained note?
	So you constantly have to do that.
	Some of the programs now are starting to do that.
	Make a guess with that based on the way that you play.
	So there's different ones out there and there's a lot of them.
	I would suggest take a look at Spitfire Audio to get an idea of what these different samples look like.
	They've got a lot of free ones.
	They've got a lot of them that are very good that only cost like $29.
	And then you can go up and you can pay several thousand dollars, you know, for a symphony library.
	So it's got everything from free to that, you know, that's there.
	But they've got a lot of good free resources.
	One of the best places for free resources and, you know, affordable resources.
	So that's kind of the, The thousand foot view of where that is, but it's not in a keyboard.
	You know, it's the just a keyboard combined with the music samples that reside on your computer and and then how you can, you know, and it's just learning how to use those different samples and put them together one line at a time.
	But I do enjoy that and that's the way people were doing it before they started doing the artificial intelligence, but I don't see anything at all of any Any value or interest in that that doesn't hold any interest and it wouldn't hold it for you either.
	Well, our guest is ready.
	We're going to take a quick break.
	And when we come back, we're going to be talking to Aaron Day, who has been on the show once before.
	He's got a rally that's coming up.
	We're going to talk about that.
	But again, we're going to talk about the financial system and how to get independent of it, how to make sure that you preserve your financial privacy and also protect your wealth outside of the system that We both think is going to collapse.
	So Aaron Day is going to be joining us right after the break.
	And we're going to have a day and night look at the different gold, silver and even crypto.
	We'll be right back.
	♪♪
	You're listening to The David Knight Show.
	All right, folks, joining us today is Aaron Day, and he knows a lot more about crypto than I do.
	Of course, he also focuses on gold and silver.
	He's trying to get outside of the system.
	He has a very important message about what is happening with CBDC.
	He believes we've already got it, effectively.
	But he's holding classes on this and meetings.
	Tell us a little bit about that.
	You've got it in a lot of different places.
	I see one's coming up October the 5th, but you've got them all over the place.
	What it's about and where they can find where these different events are, where you do a deep dive into the future of money, sovereignty, and how to battle the central bank digital currencies.
	Tell people where they can find that information and what's coming up.
	All right, great.
	Well, thank you for having me on again.
	And so first I want to start by saying, so I wrote this book, The Final Countdown, and the whole purpose of this book was to explain to people the threat of CBDCs, basically the imminent demise of the fiat dollar, which I think we're seeing in real time.
	And then the back half of the book provides step-by-step instructions as to how people can do what I've done since 2019, which is I exited using a personal bank account in 2019, and I've been living on Gold, crypto, and silver.
	And so this book outlines how to do this.
	What I found was people read the book and said, wow, okay, now I understand what the threat is.
	But I just couldn't take that first step to actually either getting a crypto wallet or even buying gold to take into physical custody.
	So I designed these four-hour workshops, which we're now doing all over the country, to basically go through the book, but then to actually empower people.
	So people that come out of the workshop will have a crypto wallet, will have crypto, will have a gold back, and will hear my full explanation of how I live on these things on a day-to-day basis, how I pay bills, how I do all of it.
	Because this is really the step to... The only thing we can do to stop this central bank digital currency tyranny is to stop musing.
	The dollar.
	We're not going to vote our way out of this, which we could talk about in great detail.
	So on my website, daylightfreedom.org, there is a tab called Empower.
	And Empower lists all of the places that we are looking to host workshops.
	We have three that are scheduled already that we're selling tickets for for the rest of this year.
	Our next event is in New Jersey on October the 5th.
	Then we have one in Omaha on Saturday, November the 9th.
	And then we will be in Nashville on Saturday, December the 14th.
	Oh, and we're going to continue.
	So we're going to continue these.
	I will be doing probably one of these a month throughout all of next year.
	But those are our next next big events.
	And so they've been really successful so far because it really has been helpful.
	But in addition to that, on my website, there's an inform tab and a link to alternative assets.
	And this is an important section because this lists All of the things that I'm currently using on a day-to-day basis and living, you know, outside of the banking system.
	And this list changes.
	So I have to be very clear about that.
	I mean, if you bought my book a year ago, it's out of date.
	And so I have to keep everybody apprised as to what's going on because of all the regulatory issues and changes in technology and everything else.
	So I keep that open and publicly available so that everybody can see the latest and greatest.
	That's amazing.
	You are essentially a financial prepper and you're living the life.
	You're off grid prepper, but financially speaking, that is excellent.
	The final countdown to show you how to get out of the system, how to live without a bank account in a private, having all your transactions private.
	That's amazing.
	And those workshops, I see you got one coming up in Nashville to get somebody from my family to go over there and take that class.
	That's great information because that's the key thing.
	Everybody understands how the tyranny is rolling out of Washington.
	The fiat currency allows them to bribe and blackmail everybody at every level, whether it is state government or local government or whether it's hospitals or whatever.
	They're always bribing and blackmailing people with their cash.
	And that is the heart of the tyranny that is there.
	And it's also going to affect us materially if we are not outside of that system.
	That's very important.
	But you also say that we already are in CBTC.
	Tell us a little bit about that, your position.
	Yes, so when I started this entire journey, you know, I exited political activism in 2018, stopped using the dollar, and then COVID hit, and then all of a sudden I saw friends of mine be targeted by the federal government that were involved in crypto.
	So Ian Freeman, who along with Roger Bear, introduced me to Bitcoin in 2012, Ian was arrested for selling Bitcoin without a license, and I went to his sentencing hearing, and he's now in federal prison for eight years.
	Roger is now in Spain.
	He was arrested and thrown into the same prison as John McAfee for these trumped-up, made-up tax issues from over a decade ago.
	He actually left the United States, Roger did, renounced his United States citizenship in 2014, And they are going after him for this kind of made-up stuff.
	It happened to be three weeks after he published this book, Hijacking Bitcoin, where he explains in excruciating detail how Bitcoin was hijacked by people that were not interested in having Bitcoin as an alternative to CBDCs.
	Basically, they destroyed the use case of Bitcoin, which was supposed to be... Bitcoin was supposed to be digital cash.
	Now it's this There's a door of value that you're never supposed to spend and you're supposed to buy through black rock and there are multiple intermediaries and that is the exact opposite.
	So Roger, who was probably the most influential person in spreading Bitcoin from 2010 to 2015, he actually earned the nickname Bitcoin Jesus.
	So he was the first person to accept Bitcoin as a retailer.
	He was the first investor in Bitcoin companies.
	You know, he probably gave away tens of thousands of Bitcoin, and he was there when this hijacking took place, and he wrote about it, and now all of a sudden his speech is suppressed.
	It essentially went from Bitcoin as a currency to Bitcoin as NFT, right?
	I mean, you know, it's just a collectible thing.
	And that's why you see all these things about, well, this guy got a pizza with a couple of Bitcoin or whatever.
	He paid this much for the pizza and so forth.
	Because initially that was the purpose, was to be currency that people could use outside of the system.
	As you point out, it got hijacked.
	It now became this store of value that's going to be speculated on.
	And all of the The big investment companies pouring into this and the fact that they've now added ETFs on Bitcoin, other things like that, they have completely jumped onto this thing and turned it into a speculative collective, haven't they?
	They have, and one other component to this is that Bitcoin is completely trackable.
	It's on an open public ledger.
	And so a lot of people, I think, early on thought it was anonymous, and it turns out that it's not anonymous.
	And so now the government, the CIA, and others using chain analysis can actually track the blockchain and follow and figure out who is buying and selling what.
	And the problem with this is that means that they can flag One bitcoin and as saying well this this particular bitcoin can't be used it's on a blacklist while whereas this one can be used which means that it's no longer fungible because one bitcoin is actually not the same as another bitcoin they're actually so it loses its fundamental property, which is why one of the things that's happened in the last 120 days or so, since I was on, is I've actually moved completely into privacy coins.
	In fact, I've put that first, privacy first, on the list of criteria. ZANO and Monero are the two predominant ones that I use.
	ZANO is interesting because it's actually built on some of the same technology.
	The developers behind it were actually behind the technology that Monero was built on.
	So these are people that have been in cryptography and cryptocurrency for over a decade.
	But what ZANO allows you to do is also create privacy tokens So, I guess the simplest way for me to say this is, you know, crypto and even CBDCs is tokenized money.
	But money only represents 5% of global assets.
	Everything else, homes, real estate, stocks, bonds, Those are assets that will also be tokenized and so Xano essentially allows you to tokenize these assets in a way that is private and confidential because one of the other things I've learned since I was on your show last is I've really done a deep dive into this great taking and what I've found and I don't know if you've followed that much.
	Yeah, I'm aware of the documentary.
	I haven't watched the documentary yet, but I'm aware of it.
	Yeah, go ahead.
	So the gist of the great taking is we don't own our stocks and bonds in 401ks and there have been a whole bunch of changes to UCC codes at the state level that basically when there's the next financial collapse and there's a bankruptcy, our stocks and bonds in 401ks will end up being owned by the largest banks.
	And it turns out that the CBDC pilots that they've been working on in the United States are also being developed alongside something called a regulated liability network.
	And the idea behind regulated liability network is they want to take our non-monetary assets, they want to take our stocks and bonds and other assets, and apply the same technology that they're applying to CBDCs, so that now all of our assets, not just money, can be programmed, tracked, and censored.
	And so when this financial collapse happens, they'll be able to basically transfer our non-monetary assets with the click of a button.
	And so that's kind of a horrifying prospect, but it's one of the things that I've been studying in terms of what the U.S.
	has been working on.
	And this regulated liability network project Is a project between the New York Federal Reserve, MIT, five of the largest New York financial institutions, the Bank for International Settlements, basically all of the players that you would not want designing a token system for digitizing all of your non-monetary assets.
	Wow.
	So this is pretty frightening.
	So I say Zano because it is, in and of itself, a cryptocurrency that you can use.
	It's a privacy currency, but it also allows you to tokenize other assets and make those assets private and confidential.
	And by the way, it may even be able to be used to make Bitcoin and Ethereum and some of the blockchains that are transparent private.
	So those are the two that I've actually spent a significant amount of time.
	So this has been a big shift for me.
	And one thing that I found is it's very important to educate people on the need for privacy, because I don't know what's happened.
	I mean, I guess this is the indoctrination in the education system that you were talking about before I came on, but young people do not value privacy.
	They don't even know or think to value privacy.
	I think it goes back to, I think they kind of programmed them a little bit with the Big Brother type of TV shows and everything, the reality TV shows.
	A little bit before they started social media and the internet, you know, caught on with the social media.
	I think they kind of modeled for them that, you know, here's people that they don't really do anything or have any particular skills, but you too can be a celebrity if people see everything that you're doing in your life.
	And it's like they want to be celebrities, they want to have a lot of followers, so they're constantly pushing content out about their life.
	They don't want privacy, and they've been trained not to look at it.
	Before we move away from Monero and Zeno, which I've not heard of before, I talked to people who are doing PirateCoin as well.
	What is your take on PirateCoin?
	Have you ever looked at that?
	What's going on?
	PirateCoin is on the list.
	I haven't used PirateCoin, but it's on my list to review, and it certainly seems to fit all the criteria.
	I want to say this, I'm constantly evaluating new things.
	I think PirateCoin will probably be added to my list as well.
	And there are two types of privacy coins.
	There are coins that are privacy by default, which means as the user you don't have to do anything, you don't have to take any extra steps to make them private.
	And then there are coins where you can take extra steps and add privacy to them.
	So Bitcoin Cash, Litecoin, Zcash, these are, I guess I'll call it privacy optional.
	And so, my sole focus is on that universe as a potential solution, because, you know, again, I interviewed Roger about his book, Hijacking Bitcoin.
	Three weeks later, he was thrown in prison, the same prison John McAfee died, and my friend Ian Freeman, others are being arrested.
	So, this is not, and these are non-violent people who have not committed crimes, to be clear.
	These are people that are actually these are these are pro-liberty people that have been promoting freedom and non-violence and these are the people that we're throwing in prison and this is happening over and over again with what happened with the guy with telegram what's happening with these coin mixing services so this is really accelerating and so what people have to understand is the why behind this which is the government doesn't want alternatives to What I'm going to say is already a CBDC system, but that has graduated levels of tyranny.
	And the ultimate form of CBDC is a global digital currency backed by energy credits.
	That is completely programmable, tied to a social credit score, where it's a cashless system, and all cryptocurrencies have been banned.
	That's the highest level, and I've actually created this little CBDC tyranny index.
	That's where they're moving to, but we already have a system today.
	Our dollar today is already digital.
	It's already programmable.
	It's already surveillable in a way that people have no idea how bad this is.
	I mean, people are like, oh yeah, I see these politicians Whether it's Ted Cruz or Elizabeth Warren talk about, well, we have to make sure we don't have financial surveillance.
	And meanwhile, between the Patriot Act, the Bank Secrecy Reporting Act, national security letters where they can actually shut off your bank account and you can't talk to anybody about it, including a lawyer.
	Now we have the IRS working with banks to monitor our financial transactions using And on and on and on civil asset forfeiture, so they're already about and I outlined in my latest article zero hedge article I think 13 different ways our digital money is already being surveilled today So it's actually already as bad as people are worried that it will become in the future Yeah, and that's that's today our money is already programmable
	When we talk about the IRS, you know, it's not just the 80,000 agents that they want to add but it's also the artificial intelligence and And yet we have the politicians who are out there saying, well, we're going to take taxes off of tips.
	You want to vote for me now?
	You know, they're completely, people are completely clueless about how this is being weaponized against us.
	And of course, both parties are fully on board with it.
	Both parties are on board.
	So when you see a politician say, well, we're worried about financial surveillance, and are you worried about the fact that the IRS is already using AI to track all of our transactions?
	Are you worried about the fact that the Bank Secrecy Reporting Act already reports on, I think it's $5,000 or $10,000.
	If you do anything above that amount, it's automatically reported with the government.
	No, I don't see anybody talking about unwinding the tyranny that we already have, and numerous categories of businesses have already lost access to banking services.
	I just shared a post, a tweet yesterday, about somebody who was denied the ability to make a purchase at a gun store with their credit card.
	And there was something called Operation Choke Point 1.0, where many, many categories of businesses have been denied service.
	And we've seen this in the health freedom space, we've seen it in the food freedom space, and on and on.
	And what this should tell everybody is that the money's already programmable.
	And when I say programmable, if you've ever had a health savings account or a flexible spending account, give an example, Optum Bank is the largest provider of health savings accounts and health savings account and Optum Bank, it is a bank, it is a financial institution and you're given a card and you can only buy pre-approved medical items at certain times and at certain locations within certain limits subject to auditing and reporting.
	That is programmable digital money using the existing system.
	There's no big upgrade that has to happen for the tyranny that everybody is worried about to kick in.
	Essentially, the Federal Reserve runs on an Oracle database.
	So money is created when the federal government issues an IOU to the Federal Reserve.
	Federal Reserve then creates that money out of thin air as an entry in an Oracle database.
	That is basically the genesis of money.
	And then the federal government writes checks, pays bills, pays contractors, does whatever they do.
	They write checks and then you deposit those checks into a commercial bank and the commercial bank Creates a database entry out of thin air in an Oracle and Microsoft or Microsoft database backed by the Oracle database entries created by the Federal Reserve.
	This is the existing system.
	So the existing system is digital.
	92% of our money is digital and it's using these centralized databases.
	And so I think people are not largely aware of that.
	And certainly Oracle and Microsoft databases are highly programmable.
	And of course, a big part of the surveillance right now in the current system is the on-ramps and the off-ramps of what is happening there.
	Certainly, we take the money out, but even the know-your-customer rules, they really ramped this up for the sites that you're going to deal with in terms of cryptocurrency.
	And this is the real issue.
	When I talk about the financial system, and you're talking about the fact that we're looking at the end of the dollar reserve, the petrodollar is now Totally dead because Saudi Arabia was a linchpin of that and they're now taking payments and other currencies and they're stashing up on gold.
	Where does gold fit in on all of this?
	You focused on Monero and on Zeno and privacy coins and things like that.
	What about gold?
	Are you using gold and silver on a daily basis?
	I use gold and silver on a daily basis, more gold.
	I always tip in goldbacks.
	I live in New Hampshire, and so New Hampshire is one of six states that goldback actually has physical locations where there are merchants actually actively accepting me.
	So there are 150 Stores in New Hampshire 2,000 nationwide that already take this directly as currency and that initiative is expanding.
	And then I have an account through Alpine where I can buy gold and silver online and transfer amongst gold, silver and gold backs.
	And then I can even transfer gold and silver to a Visa debit card so I don't ever have to store any value in fiat currency.
	Now there is some centralization to that.
	So one of the things that I'm working on, and this is what I think is kind of the holy grail on this, is imagine You take Xano, you take the privacy features of Monero, which is essentially what Xano offers, and now you start tokenizing gold and silver.
	So now people can have a currency that's backed by gold, silver, and goldbacks, but that can be traded with all of the convenience aspects of a private cryptocurrency.
	So to me, where we're headed towards is a multi-asset approach.
	And I think that there's a way to combine privacy, tokenization, and precious metals.
	And in fact, I'm talking to numerous people who have vaults and who are interested in this idea as well, where you can really increase the velocity of the spending of precious metals through tokenization.
	And then, you know, if people have to withdraw the physical metal, then there's probably KYC, AML at that point.
	But then there's an ability to when you're not actually directly pulling out the physical metals to use these privacy tokens for day-to-day transactions.
	So today for me it's a balance of privacy tokens and gold backs and gold and then I'm really excited about creating user-friendly tools.
	Wallets for the consumer that have all of these assets and a point-of-sale system for merchants where the merchant can very easily accept Multiple forms of privacy crypto and gold and silver and can convert whatever they're accepting to the reference currency of their choice so that makes it easier for them to pay to pay bills and have stability with store value.
	So that's the direction this is all headed in.
	That is so important what you're doing.
	Again, the website is daylightfreedom.org and you can click on the button there to find out how to empower yourself to start getting out of this system.
	And that's, you've done a great deal of work on this.
	That's excellent research they've done.
	Let me ask you, what do you think, now there's something that's going on.
	I don't know all the details about it.
	Montana is doing something, I think, with a gold-backed digital currency or something.
	Is that correct or am I wrong about that?
	And what do you think about that if you know about it?
	I haven't heard about that, but I'm involved with the Citizens for Sound Money.
	I know there's a big effort to get states to make gold and silver legal tender, and there are a number that already have, including Utah, which was the first in 2011.
	And I know many other states are coming online, but I have not heard about Montana.
	I'll have to look into that, actually.
	That one's new.
	We just had New Jersey become the 45th state to not have sales tax on gold and silver.
	So even New Jersey!
	I was surprised.
	Of course, the ones that are still doing it are pretty much the usual suspects that you'd expect like Hawaii and things like that.
	But Kentucky was in the mix, and that really kind of surprised me.
	But other than that, the other four were pretty much what you would think.
	But it's starting to catch on.
	There's a lot of people I know here in Tennessee who had Senator Nicely who was very concerned about what was going to happen with a financial collapse, with mismanagement by the Federal Reserve, but also focused on financial transactional privacy.
	And that's the thing that really – so he was trying to set up something that would help local banks.
	You know, they have what they call the state bank in North Dakota, I think it is.
	And that has served them well through the Depression and other things like that.
	But the banking industry really pushes back pretty hard if you start trying to do that.
	And a lot of the banks, small and medium-sized banks, don't really understand that they're on the – the...heh...
	They're about to be cut off.
	And so he was trying to show them how this was going to help them, but they came after him when he started doing that.
	But he's still come through with a lot of solutions, and there's other states that are working on that as well.
	And so I think it's very important for us to understand that it's not just the instability of the Federal Reserve, it's not just their bad policy that is going to have economic consequences for us that we want to escape by being in gold and silver.
	But it's also this privacy aspect that you really focused on, which is so important, and how to actually get out of the system.
	You know, right now, a lot of people are just in the mode as we are here, just trying to collect things that are outside the system, like gold and silver, But not really sure how to use it on an ongoing basis, and how do we connect with other people and make this practical?
	That's what you're showing on your website.
	That's very important.
	Yeah, no, and it really does come down to easy-to-use tools for consumers and merchants.
	And so there's a path to doing this, and so there just needs to be an emphasis and a focus on it.
	And so I know it can happen, because again, I've been living on these things for five years, but the tools need to be made easier to use.
	But there's certainly a huge demand.
	I mean, right now the focus isn't on mass adoption, it's actually getting those innovators.
	All technology and ideas go through kind of an adoption curve.
	You have the innovators, which are two and a half percent, and then you have early adopters, which are roughly 13 percent, and then you have, you know, early majority, late majority, and then laggards.
	And so the point is to focus on the innovators so that, you know, you're not at Too many levels removed from people's understanding of these systems.
	So the people that are in, you know, the Second Amendment space, if gun store owners are already, you know, intimately aware of problems with payment processing, as are people in food freedom and health freedom and these other sectors.
	And so the idea is To put together tools to make it easy for these merchants and then to combine these merchants and make it easy for people to realize, oh, hey, there are places I can actually go to use these alternative currencies.
	And so as we're refining the technology and building out the merchant network, then we can go to the next layer to the early adopters and start expanding it out.
	So it really requires just focus on making sure that we're not trying to go mainstream too early, because the technology needs to evolve for usability and simplicity.
	I guess my big concern when I look at crypto is security because I've covered the stories I forget it was a guy who was a billionaire and because as you pointed out the blockchain is somewhat public he had some guy contact him and say saw this large transaction he tracked it down to find out that it was a wallet that belonged to this guy and he sends him a message and says I see that you just took out nearly a million dollars it's like nine hundred and some thousand dollars he said no I didn't do that He didn't realize that he just had about a million dollars stolen from him.
	And so that's the key.
	You know, when we look at this, and I assume that you address this in your Empower stuff, the security issues of having these wallets, that's one of the things that concerns me about it.
	When you have, when you go digital, there is the capability of being exposed to every criminal all over the earth.
	If they know what they're doing and you don't know what you're doing.
	Talk a little bit about that, the security issues.
	Yeah, no, that is absolutely critical.
	So there are two components.
	One to what you just said is, this is why you use privacy tokens and privacy coins, so that your identity and financial transactions can't be identified.
	Because this has been a problem, right?
	People can, not just the government, but bad actors can trace who's using Bitcoin.
	Who's using Ethereum?
	And then they can use that and try to rob you or kidnap you and literally physically steal your coins.
	That is an actual issue.
	So the first thing to do is to use privacy coins.
	But then within that, there's the issue of how do you keep your privacy coins safe?
	Because the issue with this is, I mean, there's a saying, not your keys, not your coins.
	You know, you have your private keys to your crypto, but there's no customer service.
	If you lose these, if you're hacked or you misplace your keys, then that money's gone.
	There's no 1-800 number to call.
	And so generally what you want to do is you want to keep Most of your crypto in what's called cold storage, where it's not actually on a device that's connected to the internet in any way, shape or form or on a mobile device.
	So you can use hard, there are things called hardware wallets that you can buy that can accomplish this.
	You can also use something called a paper wallet, which is a paper wallet is where you basically have an address that has a private key.
	But that wall has never actually touched the internet so you move your coins to this and it's never touched the internet before and then when you need to use the coins you restore that wallet to a hot wallet that's connected to the internet and then you you spend it so that's another And there's a whole wide range of things, including, you know, you can take old cell phones and completely wipe them and just put your crypto wallet on that and then not have it touch the internet, keep it off until such time as you need to use it.
	And so there's a whole variety of different mechanisms that you can use.
	And then on an ongoing basis, I mean, right now I'm using a wallet called Cake Wallet because I've focused on privacy coins and there aren't many wallets that have that focus.
	Cake Wallet was specifically built originally for Monero.
	They've added other coins, and they are soon to add Zano as well.
	And what I like about it is that it's an open source wallet that has had an emphasis on privacy, but it's also user-friendly.
	There are features in there.
	So when I live on crypto, now fortunately I live in New Hampshire, and there are a lot of merchants that I can go to as part of the FreeState project and actually buy things directly with crypto.
	This isn't the case in most of the country.
	But so often what you end up having to do is to buy debit cards or gift cards.
	So, you know, I bought my kids back to school clothes or I took my kids to see a movie.
	I bought a, you know, AMC gift card using Monero, and then went over to the movie theater.
	So that's often, you know, there's kind of a continuum.
	Just as there's a continuum on the Tyranny Index, there's a continuum on the Freedom Index as well.
	The ultimate scenario is one where we're all using privacy coins peer-to-peer with no intermediaries, and that's where you want to ultimately get, but we're not going to get there today.
	So for right now, you might have to actually buy gift cards, buy debit cards, But I like CakeWallet because it's the easiest, it has a bunch of built-in functionality, it's open source, and it has a focus on privacy coins.
	But I still only leave in a live wallet a month's worth of operating funds, because you just assume that something could still go wrong for whatever reason, because certainly there are hacks
	going on every day but once you really look at and understand and consider that yeah the Federal Reserve runs on an Oracle database and your local bank runs on a Microsoft database and I think I think it was in 2017 there was something like 1.5 trillion dollars of economic losses due to Database integrity issues and hacks and everything else and that number is on the way to 10 trillion.
	We just had the social security database breach or whatever a couple of weeks ago and I think most of this year most of the major services including Microsoft and others have had data breaches and so the existing system is unsafe.
	These cryptos at least offer a Yeah, yeah.
	Trillions of dollars of leakage coming out of these things.
	What global commerce runs on which are these centralized databases that can be hacked and manipulated and changed?
	Yeah, yeah trillions dollars of leakage coming out of these things again Oracle and Microsoft That where they've got their databases now Let's talk a little bit more about what you kind of touched on there in terms of the details of how it works You talked about how you transfer some of the stuff into a debit card that you can use, you know, to go buy stuff at retail, people who are not participating in that.
	So, tell us a little bit about how that works.
	I mean, is that something that is available to people outside of New Hampshire?
	I mean, how do you convert that Monero to a debit card that you can take to the movie theater?
	That's available to everyone.
	So it's actually built into the Cake Wallet.
	It's something called Cake Pay.
	And so right from within the wallet, you will see there are hundreds and hundreds of participating merchants.
	I mean, anywhere from Delta Airlines to AMC.
	And so this isn't anything exclusive to New Hampshire.
	Basically, most companies have their own gift card program.
	So I mean, I use this to, I got my kids some clothes at Old Navy.
	The list of merchants is quite impressive.
	I mean, I think I even saw it, I don't know if it was on there, but somewhere, you know, you could get a, you could buy a vacation to Sandals using gift cards.
	So I believe you could use Monero to buy a Sandals gift card.
	I mean, this is what I'm going to do.
	I'm about to go to Argentina to a crypto conference next month, Bitcoin Cash Conference.
	And I mean, this is all going to be done.
	I'm going to buy my plane tickets to Argentina using gift cards.
	So anybody can do this.
	You don't have to be in New Hampshire.
	And it's not even limited to the United States either.
	So it's a pretty convenient solution.
	And again, this isn't the peer-to-peer direct experience that we want, but it is still it's a workaround and something that Works pretty successfully.
	And in fact, you don't have to buy, you know, when you go to like, if you go to Walmart or Target, you'll see they have the gift card aisle, right?
	And you can buy gift cards with cash, but they're in denominations 5, 10, 25, 50.
	But typically with these gift cards through cake pay, you can actually specify the exact dollar amount.
	So I think I got a $238, you know, old Navy gift certificate or something.
	So is that a gift certificate that you have a digital format on your phone that they can scan or something?
	Yes.
	Okay.
	It's a digital gift certificate.
	There is an ability to, so there are layers of this, and I go through this in my workshops as well.
	So the kind of, the Cakewalt and Cakepay is the front line of Doing retail transactions, then I use other services for different debit cards.
	So there's a debit card that you can buy, just a flat, you can buy a Visa debit card or a MasterCard debit card right from within this Cake Wallet.
	But those cards are digital only and they're usually only accepted at merchants that are digital only.
	So I have separate debit cards that are actual physical.
	I have a crypto.com debit card that's a physical debit card.
	That's the same thing.
	I still, you know, I transfer crypto through the card and it's a physical card.
	And now that can be used anywhere Visa is accepted.
	So I have a long way.
	I'm sorry.
	So can that physical card then be re-upped digitally?
	Is that the way that works?
	Do you want to do that?
	Yeah, and it usually only takes, it usually only takes, you know, maybe 30 minutes or so for the process of uploading it and having it all be verified.
	But yeah, it's, uh, so, so, and I've had other cards now, this is part of the, I mean, I want to call it.
	Gamification of my life living on crypto because as things have changed I used to use something called a BitPay card for years.
	For three or four years I used BitPay and then all of a sudden they severed their relationship with their financial partner on that and so I received seven days notice that in seven days I can no longer use that card.
	So now I actually have A number of debit cards, most of which I don't use, but I keep in reserve in case something happens to crypto.com or something happens over here.
	I'm not in a situation where I don't have any ability to pay bills.
	And then behind the scenes, I'm obviously, I'm focused on trying to work with merchants that take crypto directly.
	So that would be my preferred model.
	And all of the rest of this is just, you know, kind of Kind of an interim solution and ways of working around the system as it is.
	But it's not that hard.
	Again, the Kik Wallet solution, and this is something I've actually just started using in the last couple of months, is the easiest.
	It's the easiest to onboard someone because within one wallet you can have multiple coins, including privacy coins.
	You can buy crypto within the wallet.
	You can buy gift cards and debit cards within the wallet.
	And so that's the most attractive thing.
	Because when I'm doing these workshops, a lot of times I'm onboarding people that have had no experience with crypto at all.
	So if I'm giving them 20 different tools, it's going to get a bit lost on them.
	Right, right.
	So the cake wallet is a piece of cake to use, right?
	It is a piece of cake to use.
	And at daylightfreedom.org, there's an inform tab and under that there's alternative assets.
	And this lists all of the things that I'm currently using today, including gold backs and my, uh, UPMA account, which is the account that I have where I can fund and buy gold and silver and transfer gold and silver also to a visa debit card, which is a physical debit card, uh, that works wherever, uh, visa is, is accepted.
	And I also have something on there called spritz finance, which I want to talk about as well, because one of the big pushback, when I say I live on crypto people like, Oh yeah, right.
	How do you pay your electric bill? How do you pay your mortgage?
	How do you do some of these basic things? And, and it turns out spritz finance is a solution for that. You, uh, you connect spritz finance. And so I, I put in my Verizon account and my Verizon account number, and then literally I pay directly through spritz using crypto.
	And you can do this with auto loans, student loans, mortgages, electric bill, all of it. And it has, um, almost, it has most of those types of most of the large vendors that you would think to pay. So, so on this page and in the workshop, I teach people the whole range of how you can begin the first step of, of not using a personal bank account.
	And then hopefully we can all start working together to get more adoption so that, so that we're dealing with crypto on a peer to peer basis, even without these intermediate services or, or gift cards or debit cards.
	Yeah, yeah, take it back to its original intention.
	How are the fees?
	Are they comparable to the types of things that you would typically see?
	These intermediaries?
	Yeah, the fees are actually minimal.
	The fees are actually, in fact, I don't even know that there are any fees with the gift cards, come to think of it.
	Because, I mean, when you buy a gift card, usually the business model for gift cards is people usually buy gift cards and there's a certain amount that never go redeemed.
	So you don't usually pay an additional fee for that, because they have worked into the business model the fact that people won't actually redeem a large amount of the value.
	So that hasn't been much of an issue.
	And there are no fees with the BillPay service, for instance.
	I'm not paying extra to use my crypto to pay my Verizon.
	Bill, where you get fees, and the challenge still remains with all of this, is in acquiring crypto in the first place.
	And with these privacy coins, there's only one exchange, Kraken, that I think you can even buy, Monero.
	And most of the crypto exchanges are going to be moving away from privacy coins, so you ultimately have to buy some other coin, and then you have to use a service To convert your transparent coin to a privacy coin, which I also outlined.
	And so there is somewhat of a transaction fee involved with that up front to get it involved with these assets in the first place.
	And so that's probably the area where you have the biggest fee generation.
	Yeah, so you got to make a couple of hops and you're going to have a fee at each of those hops there.
	You know, you talk about there's really only one exchange that's working with Monero and Xano and these other privacy coins.
	And I guess that's the other part of it.
	It's really, you know, the vulnerability is the on-ramp and the exit ramp there.
	You know, at that point, what do we, you know, what is the, when we look at what They're likely to do.
	I would think that they're going to start attacking these sites like Kraken and so forth.
	Are they located outside the United States?
	How vulnerable are they to pressure and attacks from the United States?
	I think there are four major exchanges in the U.S.
	They're all being sued by the SEC.
	Most have already gotten rid of privacy coins.
	I think Kraken will ultimately probably stop offering Monero as well.
	So I think that we can count on that happening.
	And by the way, that's a bipartisan affair.
	I think there are a lot of people that get worked up over Trump is going to be the savior on crypto, and I've actually read the legislation that the Republicans in the House have drafted, and none of it is pro-freedom, none of it is pro-privacy.
	It all gives more control to the banks, and it all adds more reporting.
	So there's no Republican win from the standpoint of privacy or even really self-custody.
	Either way, we're going to get more regulation, more reporting, and This is Cynthia Loomis, a senator from Wyoming, who puts the Bitcoin laser eyes in her profile picture and who everybody thinks is this pro-crypto person.
	She is explicitly against privacy and explicitly against everything that's not a transparent blockchain.
	So this isn't going to get easier.
	It's only going to get worse, which is why I think people getting into these privacy coins and starting to use them in a parallel economy as quickly as possible is the right way.
	Because again, they want to ratchet up the tyranny.
	So they want to take the existing digital system and they're going to move to ban cash.
	They're going to move to add more programmability.
	This is just kind of baked into what's going to happen.
	Privacy coins are really our only way out.
	And certainly gold and silver as well.
	But unless gold and silver can be spendable and actually used, I mean, there's gold and silver sure is a hedge for the collapse of the dollar.
	But at the end of the day, if you have to buy a loaf of bread or you have to engage in commerce, you know, there needs to be a spendable version of these things.
	And so this is why I think the merger of Privacy coins or privacy tokens and precious metals is probably going to be a huge win for all of this.
	But no, time is not on our side.
	I mean, there are other things that people can do with, you know, VPNs and other things I'm not necessarily going to talk about here, but you can go about acquiring these things, not within the United States.
	But the U.S.
	is really not competitive already with exchanges.
	And this even varies.
	The state of New York is horrendous.
	You have to have a bit license.
	It's almost impossible to buy crypto in New York.
	We've really shot ourselves in the foot on this.
	And of course, I think CZ, who is the CEO of Binance, is still in prison.
	I think he gets out of prison in a few days.
	He's serving a four-month prison term.
	So the U.S.
	has been horrible on this front.
	Now, ultimately, you want to get to the point where people are actually earning money in crypto, right?
	This is the way to go moving forward, when people are actually using this, not just to Buy and sell things, but people are actually earning money in crypto.
	And I know people that have been doing that for a while as well.
	A friend of mine here in New Hampshire, in the Free State, has been living on crypto since 2015, and he actually gets paid in crypto.
	He only works on projects where he gets paid in crypto.
	So there's a, again, it's a process, it's a continuum of how we get to where we need to be, which is people using peer-to-peer cash and earning in peer-to-peer cash.
	Well, that's why it's so important what you're doing, because when we look at it, if people don't own guns and they've never been around guns, it's very easy for people to tell them, well, we don't want to have anybody having guns, right?
	And the same thing is true in terms of driving cars.
	You know, we look at what is happening, the younger generation is not driving cars that much.
	It's going to be very, they're doing that on purpose or making it difficult for them, so that if they don't have cars, they're not going to really see the need of it.
	That's why it's very important for you to get people to start to see how to safely use this stuff and start to adopt it so that it's not something that they know about, something that they value.
	And if you start to get a big community of people who know how to use it and value it, then at that point they will start to push back and defend it.
	Right now, what you see happening with these politicians, politicians are out there trolling for voters and they're trolling for donors.
	And, you know, Trump just got seven and a half million dollars from, you know, crypto political action committee.
	And yet he goes on and he talks about he doesn't know anything at all about it and he doesn't care anything at all about it.
	And that's true, as you point out, of Ted Cruz, any of these people.
	They jump onto it because it's a political position, but at the same time, especially coming from the conservatives, they're going to say, well, we've got to have visibility on everything that everybody's doing, you know, because of drugs or because of whatever issue they want to attribute this to, as if that is something that can only be done with crypto, as if it's not being done with the current financial system and cash and all the rest of this stuff.
	So, it is a troubling thing, and I guess the question I have is, you know, when you get down to just, you know, only Kraken that is doing the privacy coins, is, you know, what is, you know, as you point out, the walls are closing in on it.
	What does the future look like with that?
	How do we get into that system if they close down the last one?
	Well, so again, you can buy a transparent coin.
	I use a service called Exalix, and there's another one coming up called ChangeNow, where you can go onto an exchange and you can buy whatever, Bitcoin Cash, or you can buy a stablecoin, and then you can use these other services.
	And that are not based in the United States and you can swap your transparency coins.
	It's, I mean, it's always an arms race.
	It's always staying one step ahead.
	I will say the Cake Blog is going to have a feature where you will be able to buy, I believe, Monero and Zeno directly within the wallet using a credit card or a debit card.
	So it's, but this is why I keep this part of my website up to date because these services are Continually changing and we just have to acknowledge that it is absolutely a race.
	There's something that's being built called confidential layers, which is going to be an ability for people to take their existing Bitcoin and Ethereum and do what's called bridging essentially into Xano so that they can make their transparent coins private.
	So again, it's a constant race and it's a constant battle for innovation.
	Of course, the whole point of crypto to begin with was peer-to-peer digital cash.
	So even the idea of exchanges is kind of, you know, overblown, right?
	I mean, it used to be that early on in 2012, we had local Bitcoin meetups here in New Hampshire.
	I mean, people would get together in person.
	This is, that's actually how this stuff started is people meeting physically in person and exchanging these things, cash and crypto and all of that.
	That's how this started.
	And then there was something called local Bitcoins that was created to help facilitate that.
	Even that was shut down.
	And so, um, and what they do is they go after you for being in a money So if you came to me and said, Hey, I'd like to buy some Zeno from you, uh, you know, here's a thousand dollars of cash.
	I can't do that because I don't have a money transmitter license.
	And that's why, you know, my, my friend Ian is in prison for eight.
	Eight years.
	So you can't even do the person-to-person stuff.
	So it's constantly staying on top of new technologies and solutions and ways of working around this.
	But there is no doubt that regulations... No one is proposing a regulation that makes exchanges easier to use or that lessens the reporting burden.
	No one.
	There's not a piece of legislation that does that.
	That's right.
	Yeah, yeah, and that's the key.
	You know, the other part of it is not just keeping abreast of the technology, but keeping abreast of the regulatory environment so that you don't get trapped like your friend Ian.
	And Guard Goldsmith knows him and I think works with his radio station up there.
	Also in New Hampshire, he's got Liberty Conspiracy is a guard's program, but it is a crime what they've done to him, a crime what they've done to Ross Ulbrich, and it is a real, you know, when we look at this, that really, that's when they pull the veil back and you see what these people really are.
	You see how much they hate free speech, how much they hate privacy, how much they want to control and track everything that we do, and it truly is amazing.
	Once you start to look at these issues, you start to realize what vampires they literally are.
	It's just incredible, isn't it?
	It is incredible.
	And a lot of what they try to do, and you touched on it earlier, is they try to make privacy.
	Oh, you're using a privacy coin.
	This must mean you are a drug dealer or a money launderer or a terrorist.
	And the reality is, you know, I use privacy coins because I know they're going to go after, you know, my ability to buy red meat or raw milk or to, you know, buy gas and drive more than 50 miles in a week.
	We know where this is going.
	I mean, the end goal of this, again, is it's an energy credit-based digital currency tied to a social credit system.
	So, using privacy coins now so that the behavior that you're doing today that is legal
	Doesn't become illegal and and then you find yourself in the dark market just get ahead of that curve because it will affect all of us and and that is and that is I will tell you that is a big issue is we need to focus on selling privacy and in particular for young people there's a Cato survey that 33 percent of Gen Z I believe are okay with surveillance cameras in the home federal government surveillance cameras in the home to monitor for domestic
	Abuse, so we have a we have a really big disconnect.
	We have older people understand privacy, but aren't necessarily as tech savvy, but the younger people are tech savvy, but don't value privacy.
	So in order to get to where we need to be, we've got to make the tech easier and we have to make people understand the importance of privacy as a fundamental right.
	That's a great way to put it.
	Yeah, yeah, we got a lot of people.
	I think that young people haven't read Orwell's 1984.
	I think we got a lot of parents haven't read Brave New World.
	I like what you said about the fact that you got the older generation values privacy, but they don't know how to use tech to get it.
	The young generation understands the tech, but they don't care about privacy.
	That's the key thing.
	And they're coming for us.
	Not only have they laid this out, that we're going to control what you eat, what you do, and all the rest of the stuff, but we're also seeing this applied already politically.
	We've seen Nigel Farage, for example, debaying It's not just Operation Chokepoint coming after the gun stores and everything, but we've seen it come after him.
	We've seen them debanking AFD people in Germany.
	If you are their political opponents, they come after you with everything, but especially that.
	That's the way they're going to shut people down is through the financial system.
	So that's one of the reasons why we've got to have financial privacy.
	Just the same way that they're coming after speech, they're going to come after that type of privacy as well.
	It's very vital, and so I really do appreciate what you're doing.
	Again, tell people where it is.
	It is daylightfreedom.org.
	That's Aaron Day's website there.
	A ton of useful information there.
	Click on the Empower button and you can also find out where he's got these different in-person, what do you call them, presentations, classes or whatever?
	Workshops.
	Okay.
	And he's got one coming up October 5th in New Jersey.
	You mentioned the middle of December in Nashville.
	Where was the other one going to be?
	The other one is in Omaha on November the 9th.
	That's great.
	Yeah, that's an excellent thing, and he's living the life right now.
	Right now, he's off the grid financially, and he can help you to start to transition to that.
	It's very important.
	Use your freedom or lose it.
	And, of course, the key thing is having the knowledge of how this system works.
	Thank you so much for joining us, Aaron.
	Appreciate it.
	Thank you for having me.
	We've got about a minute or so.
	Anything you want to say?
	I would just say, because I was just at an event with 300 people over the weekend, and people, you know, look into hijacking Bitcoin.
	Consider buying this book, Hijacking Bitcoin, because so many people are misled about Bitcoin, and they're buying the narratives from, you know, pre-2017, when it was hijacked.
	They're buying this idea that this is free to money.
	And if this is the way out of CBDCs, and in reality they're walking their way into a surveillance asset that's been captured by BlackRock and captured by the banks.
	And so it is not the answer to the problem, it's actually becoming the problem.
	And the person who literally wrote this book is not able to talk about it right at the time when he should be able to.
	You know, you should be interviewing Roger Ver right now, not me, but you can't because he's stuck in Spain.
	And by the way, I will also say the IRS is coming after crypto in a big way.
	I believe the biggest, I learned this weekend, one of the biggest areas of hiring is in this crypto area.
	So, and again, they're not doing it to get their fair share.
	They're doing it to shut down so that they can add the tyranny to our existing digital dollar.
	Oh, yeah.
	Absolutely.
	Yeah, it's an army of IRS agents that both the Republicans and Democrats want to send out, and all they do is tease you with these little trinkets.
	I'll cut the taxes over here.
	While this army of IRS agents is coming in, which is the most insidious thing, it really makes me angry.
	I got a comment here.
	Thank you, Aaron.
	I appreciate that from Guard Goldsmith.
	And thank you, Guard.
	I appreciate that.
	He says, I've been listening, David and Aaron, and I want to thank you.
	Pull that back up, Travis.
	I can't see it.
	Thanks for your excellent work and dedication to truth, peaceful interactions.
	Thank you for mentioning Ian Freeman.
	God bless.
	Yeah, that's who Gardner's working with.
	Thank you, folks.
	And by the way, if you want to get gold and silver, don't forget Tony Aardman.
	He's set up davidknight.gold.
	You can get gold, silver, large or small quantities.
	You can also start to accumulate that gradually.
	And he's got a lot of different ways.
	You know, you can get the goldbacks.
	You can get the little chiclet things that you break off gold or silver.
	You can get the group buy discounts with Wolfpack.
	That's davidknight.gold.
	Take you to Tony Aardman.
	Thank you so much for joining us.
	Thank you, Aaron.
	Appreciate it.
	Let me tell you, the David Night Show you can listen to with your ears.
	You can even watch it by using your eyes.
	In fact, if you can hear me, that means you're listening to the David Night Show right now.
	Yeah, good job.
	And you want to know something else?
