	You're listening to The David Knight Show.
	As the clock strikes 13, it's Wednesday the 24th of September.
	you Actually, the 25th.
	Well, we're going to take a look first today at War.
	We got into it yesterday at the very end of the show.
	We're also going to take a look at what is happening across our society as there is a war on the families as well as individuals.
	We know that they're coming after us individually with vaccines and all the rest of this stuff.
	But the literal war on the family and people are surrendering out of shame.
	Out of shame to stand up to their own government.
	And if we don't stop these public schools, they will destroy not only our families, but our physical homes as well.
	And Maine, as they continue to escalate the prices, the fees for the property taxes to pay for the schools, the local official says, well, you're just going to have to get a reverse mortgage to pay for it.
	Yeah, you'll own nothing.
	You'll own nothing.
	We'll be right back.
	Well in the Red Sea, as we are looking at the buildup of a new energy crisis with a new Middle Eastern war, five different fronts Israel has opened up.
	And we see this in the Suez Max tanker explosion.
	Take a look at this.
	Praise God!
	Look at the death and destruction we're doing.
	What a wonderful religion of peace.
	And yet, these are the Houthis, who we have been funding the head-chopping Saudis, doing this to them, and of course then they replay this and they play heroic music, which is not up to the level of John Williams.
	I'm surprised they didn't just...
	Copy them.
	Do they care about copyright?
	Of course not.
	But, you know, this is a vicious war that has been going on for quite some time.
	Saudi Arabia attacking the Houthis, Yemen, and again, I'm not interested in figuring out who fired first or going back over a history of this stuff.
	And the American government is certainly not interested.
	They just want to have more war everywhere.
	Everywhere!
	Let's pick aside every conflict we can sell weapons, maybe into both sides sometimes, but at least, if not to both sides, we can give weapons to the Saudis, to the Ukrainians, to the Israelis, all the rest of the stuff.
	The Houthi rebels launching missile and drone strikes on merchant vessels in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Oman, and the U.S., with all of its military might, appears to be Unable to protect any of this stuff, or unwilling, who knows whether they want this to happen.
	As I pointed out yesterday and played a little bit of the video, and I'm not going to play the whole video, I'm just going to show you the video here.
	This has been put out by Russia showing a scale model of London and the Devastation that would be there.
	Just to try to bring people to their senses.
	There used to be a time when we sensibly were concerned about not having war.
	Especially not having a nuclear war.
	And as these people crow, oh look at this, we've crossed one red line after the other with Russia.
	And they haven't been able to push back significantly.
	Well, you know, it may be that they don't have that great a military with conventional forces.
	But you keep pushing them.
	And you keep attacking them existentially, and they will use what they do have.
	If it's going to be an existential question for them, they will pull the Mutually Assured button and do something like this.
	As I talk about in this, and they explain why this would happen, what happens at the epicenter, people are dead before they even know it.
	Because the explosion goes so quickly, it outpaces even the ability of their nerves to transmit what is being felt to the brain.
	And then outside of that, people die more slowly.
	As you go further and further out, people die more slowly.
	And then they point out that because of the extreme heat waves, you're going to have all these secondary, tertiary, many other areas.
	Explosions are going to be happening everywhere.
	Set the entire city on fire.
	Westminster and 850,000 dead in a simulation of London being nuked.
	Yeah, you better stand up and say something about peace, because there's absolutely no concern about any of this.
	As a matter of fact, they want to keep pushing over these red lines, knocking chips off of shoulders and all the rest of this stuff, daring them to do this.
	It is an insane brinksmanship.
	And at the same time this is happening.
	Russia is getting more aggressive as well.
	Japan fires at Russian jets violating its airspace as World War fears explode.
	Moscow's planes violated Japan's airspace multiple times.
	Three times over a two-hour period.
	Japanese jets intercepted the Russian planes and then fired flares as a warning.
	They didn't fire live ammunition.
	Russian planes violated Japanese airspace north of Ribon Island three times between 1 p.m.
	and 3 p.m.
	local time.
	Tensions globally are surging as China is repeatedly accused of violating Taiwan's airspace.
	Now Russia is violating Japan's airspace and at the heart of this is a dispute over territory even between Japan and Russia.
	China wants Taiwan And Russia says that these Northern Territories, as they're known in Japan, are not Japan's Northern Territories.
	They said they belong to Russia!
	In February 2024, Japanese Prime Minister Kishida So his country remains fully committed to negotiating sovereignty over disputed islands known in Japan as the Northern Territories.
	Former Russian President Medvedev responded, We don't care about the feelings of the Japanese concerning the so-called Northern Territories.
	They are not, quote, disputed territories, unquote.
	They're Russian, he said.
	And so again, this is yet another flashpoint that we see.
	The Philippines as well.
	We've talked about that.
	So many different flashpoints all over the world and it may evolve into one giant flashpoint.
	Again, Occupy Peace this weekend.
	Gerald Cilenti's having the rally there and you can go to OccupyPeace.com.
	You can find where that is and what time and get all the details.
	It's free to show up.
	It's like a street festival.
	Speakers stand up there to show your support for peace and hope that it gets some press coverage.
	If not, the mainstream media, maybe in the Alternative media.
	But alternative media doesn't seem to be interested in anything except Trump and la la.
	So that is sucking all the oxygen out of every other discussion, every other issue.
	But these issues are not going to go away.
	And it really isn't going to make that much difference, whoever gets elected, if we don't speak out and stand up to this.
	So, meanwhile, Israel has a war on five fronts.
	And we got the U.S.
	sending even more troops to the Middle East.
	This is everywhere.
	Everywhere.
	U.S.
	sending more troops.
	Pentagon said Monday that it is sending additional troops to the Middle East after Israel significantly escalated the bombing campaign in Lebanon earlier in the day.
	Major General Pat Ryder said he wouldn't say how many troops the U.S.
	would send to the region.
	I'm not going to comment or provide specifics.
	But there are currently about 40,000 U.S.
	military personnel scattered across the Middle East.
	We've got some in Syria that Trump put there without telling anybody, you know, to take the oil.
	We've got to take the oil in Syria.
	We've got to overthrow the government in Syria so we can have the oil, like we overthrew the government in Iran and now the mullahs are in charge there.
	Now we've got to come after Iran, right?
	It never ends.
	This is our government, our CIA.
	It never ends with the wars and the coups.
	According to Lebanon's health minister, the Israeli bombardment that began Monday has killed at least 492 people, including 35 children, 58 women, and has wounded 1,024.
	Aretz reported on Monday that the U.S.
	supported Israel's actions in Lebanon, but currently objects to a potential ground invasion.
	The strong support from the U.S., including a constant flow of weapons shipments, has emboldened Israel to escalate in Lebanon and elsewhere in the region.
	It's anti-war.
	Just as we've got Zelensky coming to Pennsylvania and going around signing bombs and, you know, send more of these to us.
	Well, Trump, the world's best salesman right there, Zelensky, what is he selling?
	War.
	War.
	Of course, Trump sold us poison, right?
	My beautiful vaccines!
	Take my beautiful vaccines!
	These people want to kill us?
	With every one of these politicians, they're aligned with this globalist depopulation agenda.
	Well, Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin, actually he's the arms merchant, Lloyd Austin, from Raytheon.
	He was there for so long they had to change the law in order to bring him back into the government.
	Arms merchant Lloyd Austin expressed his support for Israel's right to defend itself.
	But again, nobody else has a right to defend themselves.
	The U.S.
	has not threatened to withhold any support if Israel continues to escalate the situation.
	We are determined to deter any regional actors from exploding the situation or expanding the conflict.
	So, you want to stop Netanyahu from expanding the conflict?
	No.
	Meanwhile, as we send more troops, undetermined number, only 70 out of 1100 ultra-Orthodox Jews have complied with the draft orders to the Israeli army.
	That's 6% support.
	Why should we support them?
	Now, these are people who believe that God has given them the land.
	These are people who believe that God will give them the land, not that Netanyahu will take it.
	They don't support the wars, they don't support the secular government.
	The question is, why do Christians in this country support that secular government?
	These are the ultra-orthodox.
	Since Tel Aviv issued the first batch of draft orders to the Haredi sector last month, you've only had 70 of them show up to the induction center to be drafted.
	Draft orders began going out last month.
	After the High Court of Justice, or Supreme Court essentially, ruled that ultra-Orthodox men are eligible for service and they must be drafted into the military.
	Previously, the Haredim avoided conscription by enrolling in yeshivas and obtaining repeated one-year service deferrals until they reach the age of military exemption.
	And so, In response to the draft orders, the community of ultra-Orthodox Jews has held several protests saying that they would rather die before enlisting.
	So I guess we'll have to die for them, right?
	We'll have to die for Netanyahu.
	On Wednesday, around 100 Herodim clashed with Israeli police in occupied Jerusalem.
	I've shown you the pictures, protesters, and now the police are brutal to them.
	These ultra-Orthodox, the government there hates them.
	They hate the government.
	Then again, it was not a majority.
	A big factor of this, folks, this is not God working miraculously.
	This is Netanyahu making political moves in order to stay in power.
	When you go to war, everybody goes behind the leader, even if the leader is wrong.
	And when you go to China, you still see all the stuff up about Mao, even though he killed What is 80 million of his own people?
	Who knows exactly what the numbers are?
	Even though he came after his own people, he and Stalin still revered in the countries even though they purged their own people because they're strong leaders, because of war.
	It's this perverse thing.
	Lincoln, one of our most revered presidents, Who killed more Americans than anybody else because of his greed for power.
	And this happens with Lincoln, with Mao, with Stalin, with all these people.
	And of course, they all know that.
	That's why Netanyahu is doing this.
	They all know that if you've got a foreign enemy, or if you create a foreign enemy amongst your midst, right?
	Oh, those people are terrorists.
	They're outlanders.
	They're outsiders.
	They're against us.
	You're either with us or against us, said George W. Bush.
	Protesters are seen blocking a street near a military base, clashing with police officers who tried to disperse them.
	In one scene, one of the protesters was heard calling the police Nazis.
	The attempt to draft thousands of Herodim into service comes as the Israeli army faces a severe manpower crisis after 10 months of continual shelling in Gaza.
	So I guess we'll now send in the Americans who are fighting for them.
	We're going to take a quick break and we'll be right back.
	♪♪♪
	Making Sense, Common Again.
	You're listening to The David Knight Show.
	Well, your tax dollars at work.
	work.
	This is coming from Zero Hedge, and it's a local paper there in San Francisco, as they show cops dressing up in inflatable chicken costume to catch speeding drivers.
	Yeah.
	My question is, if they're trying to catch speeding drivers, shouldn't they dress up as Roadrunner?
	What he's doing is, he's not actually trying to catch speeding drivers.
	He's trying to catch drivers who go through the zebra crossing, while the chicken is trying to cross the road to the other side.
	Frankly, if I saw that guy on the side of the road, I would not think that he was even necessarily trying to get to the other side.
	He looks like somebody who's all dressed up in a stupid costume in order to sell something.
	Except he's not really selling anything.
	He's handing out tickets.
	Massive amounts of tickets.
	Whenever they do this, they hand out Between $12,000 and $16,000 worth of stuff.
	30 to 40 citations.
	Up to $400.
	So, okay.
	It's a real take.
	You see, in a city where violent crime is exploding, where crime in general is exploding, where big box retailers who are funded by Wall Street can't even stay open because of all the shoplifting.
	The cops are chickening out.
	They're going to give people tickets for these zebra crossings.
	And look, the zebra crossings, the government ought to be fined for setting up zero zebra crossings.
	I think they're very dangerous.
	Travis said he doesn't even think San Francisco has any zebras.
	Your mic is way down though.
	Um, yeah, it's, uh, They don't have any sense, do they?
	But when you set up these zebra crossings, it gives pedestrians a false sense of protection, right?
	Many of them would just, oh, got a zebra crossing, I'm just gonna walk through the street, it's up to the cars to stop, right?
	Well, you've got the right-of-way, but you may wind up being dead right.
	And a lot of people are just looking at their phones, just gonna step right out into the street.
	All right.
	They have these things all over the place in Gatlinburg, but Gatlinburg, when you're going right down downtown Gatlinburg, Tennessee, it's really like a street fair.
	And, um, you know, nobody drives fast there and, and everybody, the sidewalks are packed and people will step up, but you're going to really watch out.
	Even if you're driving along like 10 miles an hour, you never know.
	Somebody's just going to walk up there and just step right into the street.
	Cause Hey, it's a zebra crossing.
	I'm fine.
	These things are a bad idea, an accident waiting to happen.
	But again, these cops don't care about crime.
	They only care about ripping people off with these fines that are out there.
	So again, they're going to get 30 to 40 citations, up to $400 a piece, and we're looking at $12,000, $16,000 in a day.
	We're looking at $12,000, $16,000 in a day.
	Good job!
	Good job, let's do that again.
	And they've done it over and over again.
	After the police performed this exercise at the same crosswalk previously, somebody with a sense of humor put up a chicken crossing sign nearby.
	So, all this is happening while homicides in San Francisco have gone up by 83%.
	83%, nearly double.
	Overall, violent crime went up 4%.
	Nonviolent crime, like shoplifting, is shutting down major big box stores.
	But this is what, I showed this yesterday, and this is what really concerns me, because this is what is coming.
	You know, the cops walk in, once they get us out of our cars, finally, you know, this is a big dream, nobody owning cars.
	Once they get us out of their cars, they're just going to come up to people and say, your identity papers, please.
	Yeah.
	Like occupied France or something?
	Uh, open up your phone.
	I need to be able to see into your phone.
	Let me look, see if you got anything in there that I could be offended by.
	If I'm offended by anything in there, I'll call that hate speech.
	And in Ireland, you can go to jail just for having this something that somebody else put up on your phone.
	That they find hateful.
	Now, if you post it, you go to jail for five years.
	If they find it on your phone, a year.
	If you refuse to open up your phone and let these tyrants scroll through your personal effects, well, that's a £5,000 fine in Ireland.
	Yeah, it never ends, does it?
	They will always have time to come after the people who aren't doing anything to find a crime, while they ignore the actual crimes that are being committed out there.
	So, you know, we're protected against that type of thing.
	That's happening in the UK, right?
	We would never have that here in America, because we've got the Fourth Amendment.
	That protects the people's right to be secure in their persons, houses, papers and effects without a specific warrant, talking about crime, specifically mentioning the things and the places and the reasons why you're looking and so forth.
	Yeah, we got the Fourth Amendment, so we don't have to worry about that.
	Well, the Fourth Amendment doesn't apply.
	And the Supreme Court Even under supposedly conservative and textual-based, literalist Scalia said no.
	He made the argument that the Fourth Amendment doesn't apply with the TSA.
	Well, if it doesn't apply with the TSA, they're going to find exceptions everywhere as they look at it.
	You got a cash-strapped zoo in the European Union.
	As a matter of fact, it is in Norway.
	I'm sorry, Finland.
	Finland.
	Their largest zoo is going to have to return the Chinese pandas.
	I wonder if they'd accept some cops dressed as chickens in return.
	Because the pandas must be really expensive.
	You know, they just eat.
	They got a very selective diet.
	They're into greens.
	Primarily bamboo, I guess.
	And remember, it was back in May that we showed this Chinese zoo.
	I mean, even the Chinese can't afford to keep pandas in bamboo.
	Feeding them and all the rest of the stuff.
	Because back in May...
	We had these Chow Chow dogs that the zoo had painted up to look like pandas.
	Everybody knows they're not pandas.
	And people are laughing about the fact that they're not pandas.
	But of course, you know, the dogs are kind of cute.
	And we'll just go along with the fantasy.
	We do that all the time, don't we?
	We just play along with the fantasy.
	So I don't know what the deal is with the pandas, why they are so expensive.
	I do know that they have a 15-year lease with China.
	The zoo pays an annual fee to China of about 1.1 million dollars.
	Oh, okay.
	So there's that.
	Plus the cost of bamboo.
	So I guess these pandas have turned into something of a white elephant for the zoo there.
	The largest privately owned zoo got these pandas back in January of 2018, nine months after Xi Jinping visited the country and signed a joint agreement of protection for the animals.
	Uh, so they're gonna, I guess, um, Finland wants to protect pandas, but they don't have any.
	Okay.
	Oh, I'll loan you some pandas for a million dollars a year.
	So you can protect them.
	I thought it was kind of funny.
	The name of the zoo is the Atari zoo, the video game, except it's spelled a H T a R I. I imagine it's still pronounced Atari.
	Uh, they've had financial difficulties because of lockdowns.
	And the lockdowns, they said, have changed people's patterns.
	They don't go to the zoo.
	I guess maybe they don't like to be reminded that they themselves were locked up, you know.
	Yeah, they locked us up like zoo animals.
	I don't think I want to go to the zoo anymore.
	Maybe they have a new empathy for the animals that are locked up, since they were treated like animals.
	By their government, just like our government under Trump treated us like animals.
	Well, while all this is happening, we have some of the wonderful people that are being brought in.
	Our new replacements are coming in, and they're very busy replacing buildings as well.
	We've got six arson attacks on European churches in one week.
	That's about one a day.
	They're burning the churches down left and right.
	Now I wonder what group of newcomers, wonderful newcomers, would have it in for historical Christian churches?
	Don't they realize that nobody in Europe goes to the church buildings anymore?
	But that's not all it's about.
	They've got to burn these things down so they can build their new mosques, right?
	The Observatory on Intolerance and Discrimination against Christians in Europe noted that over the past several weeks, Europe has seen a shocking number of arson attacks on historic churches.
	In the last month, at least nine such anti-Christian arson attacks have taken place, with six of them occurring in the week ending September 2nd.
	So, in Ireland, for example, a 27-year-old man, they don't say where this 27-year-old man came from, was accused of charges of attempting to set fire to three different religious buildings, including two Christian churches.
	September the 1st, an arson attack in France largely destroyed the historic Church of the Immaculate Conception.
	120 firefighters fought the blaze for several hours before bringing it under control.
	But the building has been destroyed.
	Police identified that perpetrator.
	You know, the Irish people don't want to, the Irish government wants to say, it'd be racist to say anything about these people.
	But in France, they identified this person as an Antifa radical who previously shared anti-Christian pro-Islamic state content.
	Okay, so he's Antifa and he's Muslim.
	On social media.
	The man had previously attempted to set fire to 15 Christian churches.
	But, of course, the cops there are also chicken to do anything about it.
	So, you know, this is number 16.
	Number 16.
	And he tried 15 times.
	Finally, on the 16th try, he was able to burn down a historic church because the police aren't going to do anything.
	Italy was not spared arson attacks.
	Even in Sicily, they had a church that was burned down there.
	Netherlands had three such anti-Christian attacks in the past couple of weeks, and on and on.
	They're literally burning down our society, burning down our culture.
	And that's the purpose.
	That's the purpose of the mass migration.
	And we're not talking about people who are coming here because they want jobs.
	They're coming here not because they want freedom.
	Not because they want jobs.
	They want free stuff.
	It's the welfare magnet that's the issue.
	And it's the magnitude of the number of people that are coming in that is the issue.
	There will be no way to assimilate these people.
	There's a great deal of hatred and animosity.
	As a matter of fact, we've seen this in the past.
	Cuba released its prisoners.
	The Mariel Boatlift.
	I remember when I was still living in Florida.
	And it was deliberate.
	You don't think that Venezuela is doing deliberate injection of criminals into our country?
	Of course they are.
	And our government is complicit with it.
	Like most Americans, you are not aware that the largest release of a reactor occurred in the early 1960s, says a listener.
	Demi, this is from John.
	Thank you for correcting that to me.
	I was not aware of that.
	So the largest release from a nuclear reactor occurred in the early 1960s over the San Fernando Valley of L.A.
	The chief engineer physicist finally, on the site rather, finally got Freedom of Information Act permission to publish the information about the event.
	His testimony was recorded in 2008 by the History Channel's Modern Marvels of Engineering Disasters, episode 50.
	Uh, I would like to tell you the full story if you want to receive it.
	It says, please reply to the email.
	Yeah, I'll, um, I'm open to any more information and corrections additions to this stuff because nuclear is going really fast.
	And as I said, when I talked about Microsoft going back to three mile Island, you know, they had two reactors there.
	One of them, I guess is beyond being fixed.
	The one that had the meltdown, but the other one is going to be restarted.
	And I said, when I talked about it, I said, they're going to do it at warp speed.
	They're going to forget all the safety.
	So let's just get this thing back online.
	And while I, here it is, uh, two days later, nuclear is back in the Pennsylvania.
	Governor Shapiro is pushing for fast track.
	That's what he calls it.
	Fast track reopening for a three mile island.
	Warp speed, nuclear reactors.
	What could possibly go wrong?
	The energy generated by the reactor enough to supply about 700,000 homes will instead be used to power Microsoft data centers that will then spy on more than 700,000 homes, be used to surveil us, to propagandize us, to censor us, You see, you'll have no electrical power and you'll have no political power.
	That's why they're greasing the skids for this.
	We're going to give them whatever they want.
	As a matter of fact, you got Sam Altman demanding that he be given government subsidies.
	OpenAI pitched the White House on unprecedented data center build out.
	He said the U.S.
	should build five gigawatt data centers.
	He met with White House officials.
	He wants them to pay for it.
	And they will.
	They will.
	And I'll tell you, it's not going to be.
	Trump will pay for it as well.
	Trump, la la, they'll give them a blank check.
	Trump's already done it with pharmaceutical companies.
	He's already said, we've got to have AI.
	Oh, this is the future.
	AI.
	Well, AI is the future.
	Your future is also big brother slavery.
	And you got these big tech technocrats like Larry Ellison.
	Oh, we're going to have surveillance everywhere and you're going to be on your best behavior.
	And so will the police.
	So will the police.
	You won't need to have the police dressing up like a chicken in chicken suits.
	No, they just have AI spotting you and automatically writing your tickets for every possible infraction until you just say, okay, I'm out of the car.
	I'm out of the car.
	Insurance goes up every time the AI gives me a ticket.
	And it's giving me a ticket for everything.
	It's constantly monitoring everything that I'm doing.
	You took that turn too fast.
	You braked too quickly.
	You accelerated too quickly.
	You went two miles over the speed limit.
	And we're telling the insurance company and all the rest of the stuff.
	Constant surveillance.
	That's just one area.
	And of course, constant surveillance and what you eat, what you're allowed to go to.
	So we'll have no electricity either.
	Again, this is going to provide enough power for 700,000 homes, but it'll all go to Microsoft.
	Governor Shapiro wants the reactor to be allowed to come online as quickly as possible, rather than waiting in the queue as if they were an entirely new development.
	And the company there that is partnering with Microsoft, they're the ones who are going to actually own Three Mile Island.
	And Microsoft has signed a 20-year lease to take all of the power, all of the power, And yet, this is what the company says.
	Adding megawatts to the grid during this period of tightening supply and demand conditions will help the reliability of the system.
	They're not adding any power to the grid.
	All the power is going to Microsoft.
	It's not going to the grid.
	It's not going to help reliability.
	When the people in Pennsylvania get cold, they can't Crank up their electricity burning heat pumps, and they're not going to be allowed to burn any fuel to warm their homes.
	It's not being added to the grid.
	It's being added to the surveillance state.
	It's being added for censorship.
	It's being added for propaganda purposes.
	And that's why they're greasing the skids.
	The owner of Three Mile Island is investing $1.6 billion to revive the plant and has agreed to sell all, all of its output to Microsoft.
	For its data centers.
	And then Zero Hedge says, well, you know, we told you that this is going to be the next AI trade.
	You know, we're going to top out when it comes to people buying NVIDIA processors that they're using for the AI, right?
	So the way you make money now is to jump in here and to invest money into the companies that are going to be building nuclear power plants at a rapid rate.
	Well, that may be smart investment advice.
	But I'm not going to buy any stock in Pfizer.
	I'm not going to buy any stock in Moderna.
	That would be blood money.
	And folks, these systems that are designed to surveil, to lie to us with propaganda, and to censor everything that we have to say, that's blood money too.
	The restart of Three Mile Island, specifically to sell energy to Microsoft, to power status centers, will be the most material advancement in this thesis that we first outlined about how you can make money with the next AI trade.
	Yeah.
	People, as the communists said and knew, they said the capitalists will sell the rope that's used to hang them.
	This is kind of a variation on that same thing.
	And then we talk about the out-of-control property taxes.
	Out-of-control because of public schools.
	If we don't destroy and kill the notion of public health and the notion of public education, public health and public education will kill us.
	It'll kill our families, it'll take our homes, all the rest of this.
	That's just public education.
	A Maine mayor He says about property tax hikes, he says, well, you may want to consider to have a reverse mortgage because, you know, he can't think of anything that he could do to possibly reduce government.
	There's not anything at all that is expendable with the government.
	All of the money that they spend on everything is essential.
	What's not essential is your home ownership.
	What's not essential is you.
	You're not essential.
	But the government is essential, and every little bureaucrat there is special.
	And whatever they're doing, no matter how inefficient, or useless, or counterproductive, or tyrannical it is, they have to continue.
	They have to continue.
	So this is South Portland City Council.
	Portland, Maine, not Oregon.
	There was a meeting last month, and the mayor, whose name is Misha Pride, Suggested that elderly residents living on fixed income may want to consider reverse mortgaging their homes to manage their tax burden.
	Here's what he had to say.
	And it's really unfortunate.
	I'm really sad and my taxes are going up too.
	So is his salary.
	Seeing as our property values are so high, seniors may want to consider a reverse mortgage.
	I know it's an ugly word, but there are, I'm just saying, I know it's horrible, but it's sort of a last resort.
	Yeah, sort of last resort.
	I mean, you know, if you've got a mayor who refuses to control costs, then you're going to lose your home.
	And it's not really his salary as much as it is the schools.
	It's the cost of the schools that are happening there.
	So they're going to get you out of your home.
	The question is, is it going to be all at once?
	You know, you got behind your property taxes.
	Well, we'll just take your home just like that, right?
	Or will you instead take out a reverse mortgage and gradually lose your home?
	So you want to do it fast or slow?
	That's your choice.
	We're going to take your home and we're going to do it with property taxes.
	You will never own your home and now you're not even going to be able to afford it, especially if you're a senior on a fixed income because they will not fix anything that's broken in the government.
	In response of a shift of the tax burden from South Portland's commercial properties to residential properties.
	See, that's the other part of it.
	Why is it going up?
	Not only is the cost going up because of schools and other government programs that they will not pull back on, but they're then shifting the tax burden from commercial properties to residential ones.
	Why do you think that's happening?
	Because they got pressure from the commercial properties, as Gerald Salenti has pointed out for so long.
	The lockdown has busted commercial properties.
	It's not just in New York City, all over the place.
	So these people have commercial property, they're struggling.
	And the mayor and all of them are looking and say, well, we're going to lose the commercial property.
	And then you've got the banks saying, and we're holding the loans.
	And so the banks and the big businesses come in and say, I get your property taxes somewhere else, get them from the people.
	And so we'll get them from the people until homeowners can't afford it anymore.
	Right.
	Government is a parasite.
	This is parasitical.
	But, you know, parasites will kill the host.
	It's what they do.
	They don't look at the big picture.
	They don't look at things long term.
	And neither do these parasites and government.
	They have a program called the Senior Property Tax Relief.
	So they said, well, we'll put $50,000 more into that.
	Well, that's not really helping people.
	It's income.
	People who are elderly, who have low income and everything, it's set up to provide them financial assistance.
	The average benefit for 2024 was $264.
	Oh, that's going to help a lot, isn't it?
	Government giveth and government taketh away.
	You know, blessed be the government.
	You can't think of a single thing to reduce spending.
	And he can't think of ever taxing these commercial properties, right?
	Gonna shift the burden from them to the residences.
	And then at the state level in Maine, now both of these were sent to me by Tony, not Tony Artiman, but another Tony, so thank you Tony for this.
	Another level, a Maine Democrat leader, scoffed at the state government, this is the state government of Maine, this is the Democrat leader that was there, scoffed at lowering property taxes.
	Then people find out that she's not paying her taxes either.
	To the extent she's got liens against her home because she's not paying them.
	When you look at these situations, a lot of these people, we talk about why are the Democrats and many, many, many Republicans as well, why are they coming in like parasites to destroy our society?
	Well, some of them think that it's not going to apply to them.
	And it won't apply to some of them.
	Some of them will be made whole by being minions of the system.
	Others are going to be taken down by this and they're just too stupid or apathetic to care.
	And so, former House Democrat leader Maureen Terry scoffed when then-Representative, a Republican, Billy Bob Falkenhayn, Falkenhayn, Billy Bob's a Republican, and Maureen was the former House Democrat leader.
	Well, the Republican, Billy Bob, proposed a 2021 bill to increase Maine's homestead exemption to $50,000 on the basis that, quote, taxation is theft, he said.
	Well, we can see that now.
	They're going to steal the homes.
	They're going to steal the homes.
	The bill would have increased Maine's homestead exemption from $25,000 to $50,000, thereby lowering the amount of property taxes many people in Maine are required to pay.
	As he was introducing the bill, that woman that you see up there, scroll it up again.
	Scroll it up again.
	Yeah, there she is with her rainbow stuff and her pink glasses.
	Future's so bright.
	We're all through rose-colored frames.
	So that woman right there could be seen in a Zoom recording of the committee hearing, because this is back in 2021, everything's being done by Zoom, because of the lockdowns, you know, where the animals in the zoo.
	She could be seen on the Zoom recording sneering, making faces, and laughing, as if the idea of helping to reduce property taxes was too ridiculous for them to even consider.
	Well, her own property taxes have now come for the $350,000 home that she owns in Gorham.
	According to the Registry of Deeds, she was hit with a large municipal lien for unpaid property taxes in 2021, the very year that she's laughing about this stuff.
	Four months, as a matter of fact, if she laughed off the suggestion, property taxes were too high.
	They took action against her in 2022.
	For $2,480 in unpaid property taxes.
	Again in 2022, as she was campaigning for a seat in the main House of Representatives, the town once again was forced to take action against her over a large unpaid property tax bill.
	At that point in time, they filed a lien of $3,500 against her property.
	And at the same time, she had more than $3,500 in unpaid property taxes.
	She had applied for and received more than $4,000 in taxpayer funding to buy campaign materials.
	Isn't that interesting?
	To actually give you money to buy yard signs and bumper stickers and campaign buttons and all this other kind of stuff.
	And her husband is now running for office.
	And her husband is, he's running for office this year.
	And he's also getting free state money to buy yard signs and bumper stickers and all the rest of this stuff.
	They call these candidates, if they take government money, they call them clean candidates.
	Isn't that interesting?
	Oh, yeah, I guess you agree not to take, um, outside money and you're going to let the state pay for your campaign.
	So you're clean.
	I think they're dirty.
	I think they're running the stuff off of stolen money.
	I think taxes are theft.
	Uh, campaign finance records indicate that he's received more than $7,500 in taxpayer cash for his campaign.
	Uh, but, um, as I pointed out in this thing, there's trouble on the horizon for this family.
	Because even though they're not paying their property taxes on time, their property taxes are about to go up big time.
	In June, the town they lived in voted in favor of a $53 million school budget.
	I love the fact they call them bonds because you are in bondage to the public schools.
	And it's going to cause property taxes in the area to increase by more than 9%.
	And just wait until the lawsuits start coming in to all these different public schools, not just in the Democrat states.
	It's going to be everywhere.
	The lawsuits are going to come in because of sexual abuse by teachers, but also because of the school districts itself gaslighting and grooming minors.
	And separating them from their parents and harming them.
	When these kids grow up, a lot of them, as some of them already have, are going to file suit for what the schools are doing to them right now.
	And guess what?
	That's going to be put on the taxpayers.
	as I pointed out yesterday, small town, a couple of them now, two towns in Oklahoma where the towns didn't have sufficient insurance, they were underinsured.
	They get multi-million dollar judgments against them.
	One of them, of course, was about sexual assault, but the other one wasn't even about sexual assault.
	It was about hazing, hazing, and the football team.
	And so they've got insurance, but the insurance only pays like a million dollars for this And the rest of the stuff is applied to the taxpayers.
	And in one of these towns where they just got a seven and a half million dollar judgment because of sexual assault, it's going to be a thousand dollars added to the tax bill of every person with a home for several years.
	You think all these people can afford it in a small rural town?
	No.
	So I said, our public schools are destroying our kids, they're destroying our families, they're destroying our society with what they teach and do.
	But they also are there to make sure that we will never own property.
	And as a matter of fact, they're going to make it completely unaffordable to even pay the rent of property taxes very soon.
	By design, I believe.
	Department of justice has now published a letter by the alleged Trump assassin, which is kind of interesting.
	And Tennessee star jumped on this right away because Tennessee star has been fighting for over a year to try to get the Nashville shooter, the tranny shooters manifesto published.
	And the FBI swooped in and said, no, you're not going to put that stuff out.
	We don't want to copycat shooters out there.
	We're going to keep all that stuff secret.
	We're going to do that for the tranny killers.
	Because I want people to see how they have been gaslit and groomed by the schools and by other things.
	But then when it comes to this Trump shooter, they immediately put it out.
	Immediately put it out!
	Where does this double standard come from?
	We're seeing that all the time with our government, aren't we?
	Double standard on everything.
	The letter was released publicly in the manner, despite the FBI, which is the primary investigative branch of the Department of Justice, previously strongly advising the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department against the release of, quote, legacy tokens, unquote, left by the Covenant school killer Audre Elizabeth Hale, who was a biological woman, but thought she was a man.
	Like a JoJo, I guess, from the Beatles song.
	Audrey was a woman, thought she was another man.
	During the attack where she claimed the lives of six, the Tennessee Star obtained a portion of the police department's documents related to the Covenant investigation early in the year, including May 11th, 2023 FBI memo.
	They referenced legacy tokens they warned the release could lead to unintended consequences.
	And the judge has gotten really nasty with the people there at that newspaper, the Tennessee Star.
	Problem is, that judge has got to deal with the precedent that was set by the Pentagon Papers.
	These things were released by a police officer.
	If this judge wants to go after a police officer, they're telling the truth about what was going on with this tranny shooter in Nashville.
	That's one thing, right?
	You can go after the person who steals the documents and everything, but after they're released to the press, as we saw, the precedent of the Pentagon Papers supported by the Supreme Court.
	You can't go after the press for reporting what was given to them.
	You give them this stuff, and they can report it, and there's nothing that that judge can do except to bluster and to threaten.
	If she does anything else, they're going to win a big judgment against the city of Nashville.
	Which is long overdue for many big judgments as leftist as they are.
	Meanwhile, when you look at this, Bill Barr, Trump's AG, George H.W.
	Bush's AG, and George H.W.
	Bush's right-hand man at the CIA, says that the Department of Justice should not have released this letter of the Trump assassination attempt suspect.
	He said there's no reason why they should have released this letter.
	Allegedly penned by the suspect of the alleged second assassination attempt.
	He said, and he basically quotes what the policy is.
	They told Fox news that the DOJ should not have released a note because it contained a claim from Ralph that he would offer a large sum of cash if he failed in his attempt.
	Barr said the letter attempts to rouse people in incendiary terms to take action against Trump.
	There's no apparent justification for releasing the information at this stage.
	It served no purpose other than to risk inciting further violence.
	Well, there you go.
	It's got one purpose, just as he said, to incite further violence.
	You see the, uh, tranny killers thing.
	It was not about inciting violence.
	It was her diary of insanity, her diary of how, uh, she had manipulated and, uh, by the schools and by the psychologists and all the rest of these people.
	It wasn't there about inciting hatred, but he's out there saying, Hey, I'll give $150,000 to anybody.
	And where does he get all this money?
	Like I said, this guy is flying all over the world and being interviewed by all these media companies and Ukraine and everything.
	He was a roofer, a roofer.
	How does he get a fairly large home in Hawaii?
	Anyway, um, I'm not going to go down that rabbit hole and, um, keep looking at that.
	I don't trust any of these assassination narratives that are out there.
	And, uh, frankly, if these people don't care about wars that they're dragging us into, I don't care about their assassination games either.
	A huge Tesla fan has said that he's been shadow banned on X on Twitter after he complained about his defective cyber truck.
	He puts out Elon Musk, please fix this.
	Boom.
	And now he is shadow banned.
	And again, as I've said before, this is why X is as bad or worse for me than it was before Musk took it over.
	I have a lot of problems with what Musk does, and I don't have any problems telling people about the problems that I have with things.
	I mean, I'll, I'll say if he does the right thing and stands up to somebody, I'll congratulate him for standing up to a theory Bretton.
	When Thierry Breton tries to get involved in the election, and then they pushed Thierry Breton out.
	But that was a bigger story than Musk standing up to him.
	Remember when Musk first bought X?
	Thierry Breton, this EU censor-in-chief, I like to call him conspiracy theory.
	His actual name, his first name is Thierry.
	T-H-I-E-R-R-Y.
	Conspiracy theory.
	Remember when Musk first bought Twitter?
	Conspiracy theory came to him and said, there's people out there who are saying nasty things, and you're going to shut them down.
	We got the DSA that's coming, the Digital Services Act.
	And you're going to obey that, right?
	And Musk is literally bowing to him.
	Yes, yes, I'll do that.
	Yes, yes.
	And so I said, well, you know what?
	She's going to do anything that they want.
	Then he plays the man.
	And he says, I'm going to stand up to conspiracy theory, Bretton.
	Well, they took him out because it was obvious that he was so full of himself.
	He's going to try to interject the EU into an American election.
	That's not a good look.
	So they removed that guy.
	But when this all happened in Brazil, Elon Musk puts on a brave face and he changes out his lawyer and everything.
	And now he's completely reversed and caved all this stuff.
	Just as I pointed out yesterday, the other free speech billionaire, the other billionaire savior of the first amendment, Durov did the same thing.
	They both cave.
	They're not going to protect your free speech.
	And they'll shut your free speech down if they don't like what you have to say either.
	That's what Musk does.
	Just like Lala, just like Trump, if you say something they don't like, they want to censor you.
	Right?
	Lala came after Musk said, well, you know, he's letting the speech out there on his free speech platform.
	Uh, he's violated his privileges and we're gonna take away his privileges.
	And Trump says, I don't like what ABC did to me and the debates.
	Well, nobody does, but, uh, it backfired on ABC.
	People could see the hypocrisy of that.
	Uh, but he said, no, they, they, uh, were unfair and, uh, they've got a license and I want to take their license.
	And Musk wants to shut you down.
	If you say something that he doesn't like.
	None of these people, not Musk, not Durov, not Lala, not Trump, none of these people care about the principle of free speech.
	They want to shut down anybody and everything that they dislike.
	So this particular fan has made his Cybertruck his entire online persona.
	In spite, as Futurism says, in spite of being absolutely screwed by Tesla several times now over this cyber truck, he's already received two subsequent cyber trucks that turned out to be absolute lemons.
	It's on his third lemon.
	It's just a coincidence.
	I know it.
	I guess.
	I guess Pfizer is not the only one that does boosters, right?
	Keep sending them in another booster.
	Uh, he says, I post all of my, now he says he's shadow banned.
	He said, I post all my videos to YouTube, Instagram, Tik TOK, and they get a decent amount of views, but I post those same videos to X and they barely get 100 views.
	It's like zero reach.
	Yeah.
	Join the club.
	And he's upset because he said, you know, I paid for this $8 a month thing and that's not helping at all either.
	Yeah.
	Join the club.
	You know, it's interesting.
	As I said, I'll, I'll look at a video and somebody will get 4,000 views because it shows the number of views that people say.
	And that's just, if you scroll through your feed or something, right?
	So I know that my videos are not pairing on feed because this person who has got, um, uh, less than a thousand followers.
	Gets 4,000 views on a thing.
	I supposedly have 136,000 followers on Twitter, and I get 100 views.
	Now how is that?
	Well, it's obviously not even being put on their feet.
	And I have people telling me that all the time.
	He has a long track record of bounding between gushing about Tesla and complaining that they're refusing to help him when his truck breaks down.
	Sounds like Alex Jones and Trump.
	He loves me.
	He loves, he loves him.
	He loves him not.
	He loves him.
	He loves him.
	Not, you know, that type of thing.
	Uh, so when Trump refuses to help when actually it causes problems, Oh, he's a bad man.
	You know, or actually when you got, uh, you're hoping that somebody else is going to come along and replace Trump.
	Anyway, um, the, uh, trucks that he's received so far suffered from a charging cable that refused to disengage.
	It got stuck.
	Or longer than 30 or 40 minutes to top up his car, evidently, right?
	I'm not seeing anybody drive off yet.
	You do see people with the, uh, they get, they're filling up with gas and they forget and they drive off and you see the pictures occasionally of somebody that's got a, got the hose stuck into their car and they're dragging it down the road.
	I don't know what happens if you do that with one of these charging stations.
	Does something explode or catch fire?
	Oh, okay.
	You kind of think so.
	But anyway, he couldn't disengage the charging cable.
	He had a sagging headliner trim, a barrage of red blinking error messages.
	And then he got locked out, locked out because everything is under electronic control.
	I got a friend who's got a Tesla.
	He loves his Tesla.
	And, uh, and I, I enjoy driving it, but he got locked in his car one day.
	Because it's all electronic, there's nothing mechanical.
	It's just like the air vents, right?
	You can't control the air vents by just, you know, touching them and moving them.
	That's too hard.
	No, we've got to have a touch screen and multiple menus in order to redirect the airflow.
	Talk about reinventing the wheel and making it square.
	What they've done with this stuff.
	Anyway, he got locked in his car.
	He had to fortunately had his cell phone with him and he could call customer service and they could unlock it when they did.
	Anyway, Tesla has done the bare minimum response off and leaving him stranded for weeks on end.
	But even after being treated like dirt, Lamar MK has been adamant in his Tesla fandom, just like the Trump supporters.
	We're never going to give up.
	They're so invested into Trump or into Tesla, they're never going to.
	Most recently, he claimed the Cybertruck represents the most significant innovation and technological advancement the world has seen since the introduction of the iPhone.
	Futurism says, needless to say, that's a harebrained assertion.
	Given the failures that he's experienced personally, uh, nevermind his growing reputation as a failure.
	But then he goes on to say, given this situation, he says, I'm questioning the value of my premium subscription as it doesn't seem to enhance the exposure of my posts.
	Referring to his $8 a month subscription, uh, uh, subscription service.
	Uh, my content performs very well on other platforms.
	So the issue isn't the quality or the appeal of my videos.
	It's just, they're hiding it.
	He said, I guess they don't like me, lol.
	Maybe I'm just being too honest.
	That's the same conclusion I've come to.
	Maybe Musk doesn't like me.
	Maybe I'm just being too honest.
	That's the way the world works, isn't it?
	Well, before we take a break, there was an excellent article on Mises.org And I agree with most of it.
	I would change one thing here that I think that they missed, a couple little things here, but it's called the Battle of the Confederate Monuments from Mises.org.
	Various justifications have been advanced by those removing or destroying Confederate monuments to explain why they deem it necessary to dismantle the Confederate heritage.
	For example, the memorial to Zebulon Vance in Asheville, North Carolina was demolished on grounds that it was a painful symbol of racism.
	You know, they did the same thing in the town we used to live in, in Pittsboro, North Carolina.
	They had an old, one of the oldest, I think it is the oldest, maybe the second oldest town in North Carolina.
	And they had a courthouse that was in a roundabout, which again, is unusual today.
	And they had, up on a giant pedestal, they had a Confederate soldier.
	And a nearby UNC Chapel Hill, they also had a Confederate soldier that had been there for a very long time.
	They called him Silent Sam.
	And both of those have been removed in the last couple of years as part of this Marxist purge of history.
	And in either of those cases, they're not to a particular person, they're to a monument to the soldiers.
	As a matter of fact, Silent Sam was there at the Emergency of North Carolina Chapel Hill.
	They call themselves the Tar Heels.
	And they were called the Tar Heels because during the Civil War they stuck in place and they refused to move, kind of like Stonewall Jackson.
	But now the Tar Heels have greased the skids and they're on a slippery slope.
	And they got rid of these statues to commemorate the sacrifice of the people who were defending their homes from invasion, which is what this was about.
	And the typical Confederate soldier didn't own slaves.
	As a matter of fact, some of the Confederate soldiers said, rich man's war, poor man's fight.
	Now, you can make the case that perhaps this guy, Zebulon Vance, maybe he did own slaves.
	But the average Confederate soldier didn't.
	They were fighting, as you remember, even in the PBS version of history that was done back in the 1980s.
	And Ken Burns did that.
	Even in that, they quoted the Union soldier asking the Confederate soldier, why are you fighting us?
	They said, because you're here.
	You don't belong here.
	You invaded us.
	And so, when you look at this, and one of the reasons why this hit home was because here in the park, in the Great Smoky Mountains, the highest point in the park is called Clingman's Dome.
	No more.
	They've now given it an Indian name, which I don't know or care what it is.
	I'm not going to be using that Indian name.
	It's Clingman's Dome.
	But they had to get rid of it, because Clingman's Dome, Clingman was after the war, he was in the Civil War, and of course he fought for the South, he was in the South, he fought for the South, and then he became a surveyor, and anyway, he was the one who measured the height of Clingman's Dome.
	And so they called it Clingman's Dome, named it after him.
	Now they're going to name it after some Indian name for some plant or something like that.
	But that's not really what this is even about.
	If we focus on the Civil War, we miss what the real picture is.
	There is a Civil War that is going on right now.
	It is a war over our society, over our culture, over our history, over our families, over our values.
	And the last thing that people do, and this Civil War has been going on for quite some time.
	We've had silent weapons for quiet wars.
	We've had propaganda, psychological warfare, the deconstruction of everything as these Marxists have quietly marched through the institutions and taken them over.
	That was a strategy of Antonio Gramsci, founder of the Italian Communist Party.
	The man that Pete Boudiguet's father made it his entire career to worship this guy and write everything about Antonio Gramsci as a professor at Notre Dame, and then sent Boudiguet to study under a Marxist professor, Sackvon Berkovich,
	at Harvard who has made it his life story to find fault with America and blame everything that's wrong with America on the Pilgrims and that line, which now they don't want you to pay attention to.
	That's the purpose of the of the 1619 project.
	Forget about 1620 and Mayflower.
	No, no, no.
	We're going to focus on 1619 and Jamestown.
	We're going to now, after criticizing and deconstructing the Christian foundation of America, we're now going to completely ignore it altogether.
	And that's the stage that we're at.
	Now we're at the stage where they erase history.
	This is what happens when they win.
	When they win, they come in and they remove the monuments.
	And when they want to take over your area, they burn your churches down, they take down your monuments.
	That's what's going on right now.
	We're in the middle of a Civil War.
	And it is interesting to go back and look at the history, because we can learn something from it when we look at the history of the Civil War.
	And the lies that were told then, and the lies that are told now about the Civil War.
	More recently, in February 2024, Mississippi legislators resolved to replace Confederate monuments on grounds that they, quote, honor the legacy of two slave owners who actively worked to maintain the white power structure of their day.
	Now, they were fighting for their freedom, and as I've pointed out many times, what was, if you don't understand what happened in 1861, You're not going to understand the kind of time that we're in right now.
	They were in a fourth turning.
	About every four generations, the institutions change.
	Sometimes you get a really big one.
	And it was a really big one, and it happened to many different countries at that period of time.
	Italy had a civil war that was exactly the same time, 1861 to 1865.
	It did not involve slavery at all.
	What it was about in Italy and what it was about in America was the same thing.
	It was about an industrial revolution.
	As part of the industrial revolution, the previous economic power and political power of agrarian centers was being replaced by industrial powers.
	And so whereas you previously had the wealth was being generated by the agrarian areas, and you had a very decentralized, several different areas that were their own power center.
	The purpose of the Industrial Revolution was to take that power away from those people and to give it to the industrial companies and to create a centralized nation-state.
	That was something that was very important to the rising industrial powers because they wanted to have protectionism.
	And so protectionism, the consolidation, centralization of political control, And the creation of the nation state for that, that was what these wars were about.
	And they happened in Italy, they happened in Germany, happened in the United States.
	In the United States, they went back and added a different narrative to it and said, no, we were, we were fighting to free the slaves in the same way that when the ATF came after Waco and eventually got tired of waiting and, uh, you know, they attacked, they had the media there to watch them attack.
	And then after they got tired of waiting, they just burned the whole place down.
	But they said, well, we're here because this Waco cult, these Branch Davidians are abusing children.
	Well, that's not the scope of the ATF.
	They're not there to protect children.
	That's not their brief.
	And so to show they want to protect children, they burned them alive, right?
	And they created that justification after the fact.
	They had different motives, and it's quite obvious that the motives of Lincoln were very different.
	As a matter of fact, he even stated that.
	And Mises points that out as well.
	The question that arises is whether the justifications for erasing Confederate history from public view are coherent, and whether the reasons advanced have sufficient moral clarity.
	The question is more important because, as David Livingston argues, Donald, rather.
	David Livingston.
	Donald, I presume, I guess.
	I presume David, I guess.
	But it's Donald Livingston.
	What it means to be an American, both for Americans and foreigners, is largely determined by one's attitude toward the war to defeat Southern Independence in 1861 to 1865.
	He said the 1860 dismemberment of the Union by peaceful secession was morally sound, and that the Norse invasion to prevent secession and to create a consolidated American state was morally unsound.
	Secession was not always justified, but for libertarians it is presumed to be morally justified unless compelling reasons for the contrary exist.
	Look, our country was born out of secession.
	The American colonies seceded from Great Britain.
	And the federal government was created by the states, and it became the tyrant.
	And we're going to see the same thing happen with the United Nations.
	We better understand that we're in a period of time here, like the Industrial Revolution, where this revolution, this technocracy revolution, It's also going to involve them seizing the levers of political control, merging with those politicians who want to have a stronger, more centralized super state.
	That was the same thing that was happening in the 1860s here in America, in Italy, and other places, same thing was happening.
	And it is a global thing that is happening right now, a fascist merger between the economic powers, the private, corporate economic powers, and government to completely restructure society.
	That's frequently what happens during the fourth turning.
	It's what's happening right now.
	And if we don't understand how that happened in the 1860s, we're not going to understand how it is happening right now.
	Livingston shows that the institution, slavery, although it was wrong, okay, the reason it offered is that slavery was wrong, well of course it's wrong, right?
	But there's other ways to resolve it.
	I've talked about how William Wilberforce, a committed Christian, spent his entire life stopping it.
	He stopped it in England, where its economic strength was far greater than anywhere else.
	First, he stopped the slave trade.
	Then, before he died, they stopped slavery.
	And they compensated the slave owners in the Caribbean.
	It cost them less to free the slaves that way.
	Then the Union spent on ammunition to kill people.
	Because that Civil War was not about slavery.
	It was about the Industrial Revolution and the creation of the nation-state.
	And we're in a similar time right now.
	So Livingston says that even though slavery is wrong, The institution was a feature of the United States as well as of the Federal Constitution.
	It was embedded in the Constitution when the Thirteen Colonies seceded from the British Empire.
	Slavery was an inherent part of their economic, social, and legal framework.
	He points out we must acknowledge that slavery was a moral stain on the seceding American colonies, all of which allowed slavery in 1776, as well as on the seceding southern states, all of which allowed slavery in 1861.
	But Lincoln said in his first inaugural address that he didn't intend to interfere with slavery in the states where it existed, and that he believed that he had no constitutional power to do so.
	Again, the lies are the tellers, just like the ATF.
	As a matter of fact, even during the war, he even offered to allow slavery to continue in perpetuity if the states would come back under his rule.
	And when he did the Emancipation Proclamation, he only freed slaves and the states that were not under his control.
	Keeping slavery, which did exist, and states under his control.
	But just like the ATF, Sherman burned the area to the ground, just like they burned the Waco compound to the ground, over a supposed justification.
	He goes on to say, iconoclasts who destroy monuments argue that the Confederacy was against our shared values.
	But two opposing sides of a war patently do not have shared values.
	They are, by definition, at war over these contested values.
	The truth about the war for Southern independence is, as General Forrest said in his farewell address, the war naturally engenders feelings of animosity, hatred, and revenge on both sides.
	He understood the importance of peaceful coexistence even in circumstances where values differ strongly, and he exhorted his men at the end of the war to, quote, cultivate friendly feelings toward those with whom we have so long contended, and heretofore so widely but honestly differed.
	You see, this is the spirit under which, even as the Congress passed the Insurrection Act, that the Democrats wanted to prosecute against the January 6th people.
	It was Johnson, Andrew Johnson replaced Lincoln, who pardoned all of the former Confederate officers and soldiers because he did not want to have the war continue.
	Forrest did not want to have the war continue.
	When you've had enough killing, you'll say, we're going to stop the payback.
	We're going to leave you with this.
	This is why when you look at what is happening now, you look at what's happening in the Middle East with Israel, look at what is happening with the provocations on both sides in Ukraine with Russia.
	People don't want peace.
	They want war.
	And this is all being fed by political and economic interests.
	They're trying to globally realign everything.
	They want to create a global governance.
	They don't want to create nation-states.
	This time, this is about a global technocracy.
	It's not about an industrial revolution and, you know, competing nation-states.
	No.
	This is about a global governance, a technocracy that is at war with all of us.
	And we need to understand this is an attempt You know, removing these statues is just a visible attempt of these Marxist colonizers who want to erase our foundation.
	They want to erase the foundation of our statues, but also of every remnant of our society must be removed.
	And this has been going on for quite some time.
	And he does point out, even though he misses some of the, you know, the bigger issue, I think, of what is happening here as a fourth turning then, as a fourth turning now, he misses the bigger issue.
	He does see this, he says, they're never going to be satisfied with taking down this statue.
	There's always going to be something else that they have to remove that is evidence or trace of the preceding civilization that they seek to replace.
	Nor will the grieving iconoclasts feel better about history when all the monuments are gone.
	Far from being mollified and appeased, they will only gear themselves up for more destruction.
	After the monuments fall, they'll move on to disputes over flags, over songs, over stories.
	I would say over genders, right?
	You know, when they come after us with their pronouns, this is not- you use their pronouns, they'll find something else to subject- to put you into subjection to them.
	It'll always be something else.
	Okay, you're using my pronouns.
	Now you do this.
	There can be no appeasement to this.
	He says this is the inexorable path of destruction.
	And of course, when we look at this, the schools are taking the lead.
	They're taking the moral foundations.
	They even have to destroy your gender.
	The schools are a tool to bankrupt you.
	To make sure you don't own your home?
	Schools are a tool to make sure that you have no say-so or control of your family?
	In his essay, The Nationalities Question, Murray Rothbard said, Honest Abe attacked the South.
	He says, since these separate states voluntarily entered the Union, they should be allowed to leave.
	And from that perspective, it could be argued that the Confederate cause was just.
	The destruction of Confederate symbols illustrates the enduring importance of this debate.
	So you may think that it's not important.
	They think it's important.
	You need to ask yourself why they think it is so important to do this.
	They're not content to just take these things down.
	They're setting up a new order.
	They're tearing down the existing order.
	There's lessons to be learned about this tyranny of the Civil War, but don't miss the fact that we're in a Civil War right now.
	We're in the late stages of a Civil War right now.
	We're going to take a break.
	We'll be right back.
	So, uh, I'm going to be doing a little bit of a commentary on the game. And I'm going to be doing a little bit of a commentary on the game.
	So, uh, I'm going to be doing a little bit of a commentary on the game. And I'm going to be doing a little bit of a commentary on the game.

	You're listening to The David Knight Show.
	you As I watch that, I can really identify with that movie.
	The Jimmy Stewart character in Shenandoah.
	Caught in a war that he doesn't want to be involved in.
	Despising both sides, as I do.
	Just wanting to be left alone.
	Just wanting to have peace.
	And the destruction that comes to his family and his life, even as he tries to stay outside of this thing.
	We're all going to be drawn into this.
	It's inexorable that we are going to be drawn into it.
	Anrokfen, Assyrian girl, thank you very much.
	I appreciate that tip.
	Thanks for continuing to expose the evil perpetrated by the governments of the United States of Assyria and the ultimate evil king of Israel, Netanyahu.
	Yeah, yeah.
	As a matter of fact, Trump, sorry, Travis, Travis said, called you Trump.
	I don't know why that happened.
	Anyway, Travis, I'm old, had put up, it's not a just war, it's just war that's happening everywhere.
	That's right.
	Everywhere.
	On Rockfan, IRS Machine Guide.
	Thank you very much.
	That's very generous.
	I appreciate it.
	I'm going to pay my age tax for the chat room.
	Well, you know, I talked earlier about this idiotic thing at the zoos where in the Chinese zoo they painted the chow chows to look like pandas.
	And you know, you gotta say, there's gotta be something about it.
	These are the smallest pandas I've ever seen.
	And unlike most pandas, they can bark.
	So, you know, we'll just laugh and we'll go with it.
	We'll roll with it.
	The people are laughing about that, but look, it's just as absurd what we see happening and being done to us on the pharmaceutical side.
	For example, if you take a look at Nevada Supreme Court ruling against the family of a man who died after the hospital swapped out ivermectin for remdesivir.
	Yeah, you know, just like they swapped out those painted chow chows for pandas.
	And we know this kind of stuff is going on, don't we?
	And isn't it amazing that the state Supreme Court there in Nevada dismissed a lawsuit against a hospital, two of its doctors, who stopped treating a COVID-19 patient with ivermectin, and instead they gave him remdesivir.
	Why would they do that?
	Money.
	Money.
	Remdesivir is very expensive.
	Ivermectin cost virtually nothing.
	Trump could have made that available for free.
	Instead, what he did was he gave the ventilators to the rest of the stuff so they could make a lot of money and charge the government.
	Trump wasn't worried about saving the government's money.
	He wasn't worried about saving people's lives.
	That wasn't what the lockdown was about.
	The lockdown was conditioning.
	The lockdown was a test, a test of compliance.
	The family sued the hospital and the doctors for negligence and wrongful death, alleging that the doctors and hospitals were aware of scientific evidence supporting ivermectin's effectiveness, but instead they made treatment decisions influenced by politics and the media.
	They also alleged, and by money from Washington, they also alleged that by failing to consult with the family or his family physician about treatment decisions, the doctors and the hospital violated their rights to informed consent.
	And you know, yesterday as we talked to Scott Sherriff, he pointed out that in Wisconsin, they have it codified into law there that informed consent doesn't matter.
	You can violate informed consent.
	You know, they just, they can do whatever they want.
	And that's a violation of, that law is a violation of the Nuremberg Code.
	The Nuremberg Code, the fundamental principle of the Nuremberg Code was that they experimented on people.
	In violation of their informed consent.
	They executed people who did that.
	Our government executed people who did that.
	And now, our government, whether you're talking about Wisconsin or you're talking about Nevada, they say, well, we don't care about informed consent.
	Just put it right out there.
	And the government condones this murder.
	The government pays for this murder.
	The Republicans, as well as the Democrats, pay for this murder.
	The court ruled That the PrEP Act that was put in by George W. Bush in 2005, the PrEP Act barred the family's claim against the hospital because the PrEP Act grants immunity from liability for any covered person, any claim of loss caused by arising out of or relating to the administration or the use of an individual or a covered countermeasure.
	So because of Trump's emergency order, Because of the emergency order of Alex Azar, his big pharmaceutical CEO they put in as head of HHS, who did it in January.
	Trump did it then, releasing the money in mid-March.
	But because of their emergency orders, now the PrEP Act put in by George W. Bush, Uh, said, well, anything that we give you, as long as it is an official thing, you know, we, we, uh, say remdesivir is a standard of care and the ventilators are the standard of care.
	Even if they kill people, you can't sue them.
	Even if we know that the so-called standards of care are going to kill people, you can't be sued.
	And if we violate your informed consent, we don't care.
	They said it includes drugs, vaccines, and devices.
	So, it includes vaccines, it includes drugs like remdesivir, it includes devices like ventilators.
	Anything that the FDA authorizes to treat people.
	And of course the FDA means that you're free to do anything.
	Free to do anything.
	And, you know, just make money.
	Free to do anything to make as much money as you want.
	In Canada, in Alberta, Canada, they are moving in a different direction.
	The premier there, I think is what they call the governors in that province, she's making it clear that they're not going to allow people's informed consent to be violated again.
	One of the amendments we are making to the Bill of Rights is to reinforce the right of every Albertan to make their own choices regarding the medical treatments they receive.
	This includes ensuring that every individual in our province who has the mental capacity to do so will have the right to decide whether or not to receive a vaccination or other medical procedure.
	In recent years, we've seen the challenges and hardship that can arise when that right to bodily autonomy is not adequately protected.
	It is my firm conviction that no Albertan should ever be subjected or pressured into accepting a medical treatment without their full consent.
	For me, this addition to the Bill of Rights is about recognizing that in Alberta, we believe that individuals have the right to make informed decisions about their own bodies without fear of undue pressure or interference by government.
	The amended Bill of Rights will also strengthen property rights.
	Another cornerstone of living in a free and democratic society.
	The amendments will ensure that no Albertan can be deprived of their property without due process of law and just compensation.
	This is a reaffirmation of your right to own and enjoy the property that you've worked so hard for.
	There will also be an amendment to make clear that in Alberta, we respect the right of individuals to legally acquire, keep and safely use firearms.
	For many Albertans, firearms are critical to their livelihood and way of life.
	I personally feel that law-abiding firearms owners have been unfairly targeted by our federal government for decades, and it is my hope that these amendments will better protect the rights of our farmers, ranchers, hunters, and sport enthusiasts going forward.
	I'd like to show that in my view, these amendments to the Bill of Rights are not just legal changes.
	They are a reaffirmation of the values that make Alberta one of the freest jurisdictions on earth.
	They are about protecting our rights, our freedoms, and our way of life.
	We are sending a clear message that in Alberta, the rights of individuals are paramount, and that government must respect those rights at every turn.
	As your premier, it is my duty and my honor to stand up for your rights.
	I believe deeply in the principles of individual freedom and personal responsibility that have guided and built this province for generations.
	Thank you for your trust and commitment to the values that make Alberta the amazing province and beacon of freedom we have become in the world.
	Not so much America anymore though, right?
	Why is it that we can't have any politicians, Democrat or Republican, say that?
	Say what you just said.
	That's so fundamental.
	Yeah, we're going to stand up for your informed choice.
	My body, my choice, right?
	No, no, that only comes to killing your baby, which is not your body.
	These people don't care anything about your body and your choice, your informed consent.
	And of course, in America, we have civil asset forfeiture, where they can take your property without even charging you with a crime, let alone finding you guilty.
	So she's talking about that.
	And then firearms?
	Yeah, we don't have anybody who's got a commitment to that either.
	You know, Lala wants to take all your firearms.
	She said she kind of piggybacked that on the precedent that was set by Trump.
	We said, well, I can ban whatever I want.
	Trump banned the bump stocks.
	He banned the pistol brace as well.
	And then he got opposition from the NRA on that one.
	And he pulled that off in December of 2020.
	And then immediately Biden put it back on.
	Not a lot of people paid any attention to the pistol brace ban of Trump.
	They paid attention when Biden did it.
	Hey, Trump does it.
	He's our guy though.
	He's just playing 4D chess.
	Why can't we have any of these politicians say, you know, we got it wrong.
	And we're not going to do that again.
	And here's what we're going to do to correct it.
	So it doesn't happen again, because they got it wrong in Alberta, the previous premier that was there, got it wrong.
	And so now this is, I forget her name.
	I think it's Danielle Smith.
	Is that correct?
	Look that up, Travis, see if you can find that.
	I think it's Danielle Smith.
	But anyway, she's trying to set that right.
	You know, I'll never forget, and I played the clip several times.
	I don't have it today to play for you.
	Luke Rudowsky, he's doing a broadcast with Tim Pool and Laura Loomer.
	He says, why can't Trump just say that he got it wrong and we're going to fix it so it doesn't happen again?
	Tim Pool, I'm so sick and tired of hearing that.
	It was so four years ago.
	I don't care.
	Yeah, it is Daniel Smith.
	Danielle Smith.
	Thank you.
	He says, I don't care.
	I really don't care.
	That was so four years ago.
	And yet this is a guy who can't stop talking about the election.
	That was four years ago.
	And then Laura Loomer says, I don't care.
	Anybody gets that.
	You get poisoned by these people.
	That's on you.
	I didn't take it.
	I didn't get poisoned.
	Oh yeah.
	She's got all different problems.
	She's a walking example of the insanity they have.
	So when we look at what is happening now, See, the parents are now going to be allowed to give their kids nasal flu vaccine at home.
	And this is a flu shot that they're going to do as a spray.
	This flu shot had previously been withdrawn by the FDA in 2016, but now we're under all new management.
	Now the FDA says all these pharmaceutical companies are free to do anything that they want.
	We're not going to ban anything.
	They took this formulation off as an injection in 2016, eight years ago.
	Now they're going to allow it to be used as a nasal spray and parents can administer at home.
	In the same way that You can abort your baby with a pill at home.
	Now you can abort your child with a nasal spray at home.
	Isn't that great?
	Boy, they really support parents having a choice to harm their kids, don't they?
	That's the only choice they support for parents is to harm your kid.
	You can give them a nasal spray flu shot, though we know it's harmful.
	Or you can abort them with a pill.
	They really don't care.
	Parents can now give their children ages 2 and up at home a nasal flu vaccine that the FDA withdrew in 2016, but now the FDA says you're free to do anything.
	You know, we look at this.
	Home abortion.
	Home injection.
	The FDA hates children.
	The FDA hates us.
	They're trying to kill us.
	Why aren't we trying to kill them?
	Why aren't we trying to kill these bureaucracies that are predatory?
	The EPA wants to ban cars.
	Now they want to ban power stations.
	Why aren't we killing these agencies?
	Why don't we have anybody even talking about that?
	We got a few people who will say, let's get rid of the IRS.
	Let's get rid of the income tax.
	They're not one or two of them.
	I mean, it used to be none of them would say that, but nobody is talking about these agencies that threatened our very existence.
	That threaten the lives of our children?
	Think of the t-shirt.
	Government is revolting.
	Why aren't you?
	And government is revolting not just in the sense that it is disgusting, but our government is revolting against the Constitution that they swore to uphold.
	They know they don't have the constitutional authority to do this.
	Lincoln knew he didn't have the constitutional authority to do what he did.
	That doesn't stop them from going to war with us.
	So it was stopped eight years ago because it was ineffective and because it was associated with a large number of injuries that were reported on their VAERS system, the Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System.
	AstraZeneca's FluMist vaccine.
	That sounds wonderful.
	FluMist.
	FluMist.
	It got FDA approval.
	You're free to do anything.
	Late last week for at-home administration.
	Making it the first take-out flu vaccine.
	It doesn't need to be provided by a healthcare provider.
	They got the drive-thru.
	We have drive-by shootings.
	Now you can go drive-thru, mass murder the drugstore and just grab this and do it at home.
	Over-the-counter.
	No problem at all, I guess.
	What an insane government we have, isn't it?
	And it's insane that we don't do anything about it.
	Claire Robinson at Children's Health Defense has an article cutting the crap on gene editing.
	Four myths that are used to gaslight the public because the EU and in New Zealand as well, they're coming up with things saying, if we do gene editing, we're not going to call it genetically modified, even though we're modifying the genes, we're not going to call it that.
	We're going to relabel it.
	If you're just modifying the genes, And you're not implanting in the genome, you're not taking something from another animal, you know, to create what's called a chimera.
	Because that's the whole thing, you know, the DNA is the code of all living things, both plant and animal.
	And so you can take genetic sequences from an insect and you can add them to a mammal.
	You can take genetic sequences from a plant and you can add them to a human.
	You know, when I was, I guess in anticipation of this, they were passing around when I was a kid in elementary school, all these, what do you get when you cross a this with a that?
	You know, there's all these jokes about that.
	I guess they were just preparing us, right?
	Well, now they actually do.
	It's called a chimera.
	And that's different than selective breeding.
	So now what they're saying is we're going to call it precision breeding.
	If we don't, we're not going to add to the genome some DNA from another plant or another animal.
	As long as we just go in and mess with the genetic, the genes, we're not going to call it genetic modification.
	We're going to call it precision breeding.
	Well, I don't know, but how much do you have to mess with it before there's not really much difference between you creating a chimera?
	And when you mess with it, what are the consequences?
	Are the consequences really going to be any different?
	Ultimately, it can mess it up so much.
	This is why you had the Washington Post put out a couple weeks ago.
	I didn't cover all the detail of it.
	It was ridiculous on the face of it.
	But the Washington Post had something like a 30-page article that they didn't put behind their paywall.
	They wanted everybody to see it.
	And it was about Bill Gates' fantasy of re-engineering the stomach of cows.
	I'd like to re-engineer his stomach.
	I can't stomach the guy.
	But re-engineering the stomach of cows and doing it genetically.
	What could possibly go wrong?
	These proposals would remove safety and checks and labeling from a new generation of GMOs.
	We'd refuse to call them GMOs.
	It would violate scientific knowledge as well as democratic principles.
	They don't want our informed consent.
	They don't want us to be informed and they don't care if we consent.
	And so, in an excellent and fully referenced article aptly titled, Let's Cut the Crap on Gene Technology, molecular biologist Professor Jack Heinemann, himself a genetic engineer who makes extensive use of gene editing, says society should be asking itself why it needs to trade the security of its GMO regulations for unsecured promises from the speculative vision of genetic engineers.
	Billionaires like Gates, who doesn't know anything about medicine.
	He doesn't know anything about genetics.
	He just knows he wants to kill people.
	He just wants depopulation.
	And he wants money.
	And so, this guy is a genetic engineer.
	This is what he does for a living.
	He says, why are we trying to keep this secret?
	You see, that's the real key.
	When you look at the 1986 Vaccine Act, and the fact that they are going to give Legal immunity to people who are injured by their products, you have to say, well, why is that necessary?
	Who are they trying to cover up?
	Why are they so afraid of this happening?
	And as Reagan signed it, Reagan said, well, we have to do this, or the vaccine companies are going to be out of business.
	And it's like, oh, is that because their products are garbage?
	Because their products are harming people, but they'll be out of business?
	So you have to protect them from legal liability?
	Once you see that, Then you have to say, well, what's going on here?
	And that's what this genetic engineer says.
	He says, why are we covering this up?
	Why are we refusing to tell people what it really is?
	Heinemann takes apart four myths that advocate for deregulation, promote to justify their aims, and then accuses them of gaslighting the public.
	For instance, regarding the argument that countries that don't deregulate will miss out He writes, the United States provides the counterfactual, he says, it has the most permissive laws, and it has the largest number of commercialized GMOs.
	Yet, it has only commercialized 11 GM crops in 30 years.
	Nearly all GM production is only three crops, corn, soy, and cotton.
	And two traits, herbicide-tolerant and insecticide-producing.
	Yeah, when he's talking about that, he's talking about what Monsanto, now Bayer, does with glyphosates, right?
	We have engineered plants that are not going to die with our glyphosate poison.
	And then we've also engineered plants that are going to produce insecticide themselves.
	Glyphosate stuff.
	And so that's the only two traits that they have done.
	And they've only done it for corn, soy, cotton.
	He said, GMO agriculture is used on only about 15% of U.S.
	agricultural land, with other GM organisms and traits contributing approximately 1%.
	He said, we've missed out on crop losses to dicamba drift and to glyphosate-resistant weeds.
	But not access to drought, heat, flood, or salt-tolerant intrinsically higher-yielding crops.
	In other words, you know, we have, when we talk about dicamba drift, that's another one of these pesticides, and I talk about the drift because it oversprays.
	When they spray this on, it drifts quite a bit, and it contaminates and pollutes and poisons other land where people are trying to grow product that is GMO-free.
	And so he says, the only thing that we've done is to do these two things that are herbicide, you know, I'll genetically create a plant that's not killed by my poison.
	And then you'll have to buy that plant from me every year.
	See, that's why they did it.
	And he said, instead, they're not even looking to create plants that are resistant to drought or to heat, to flood, or to salt.
	They don't care about that.
	Because, see, the whole purpose of the glyphosate poisoning is to make people, make all the farmers rent their seeds from them every year.
	Every year you've got to buy these seeds from them again.
	It's all a cynical planned obsolescence, if you will.
	It's about trying to get a monopoly.
	It's about killing people, if you have to, so that you get them to be repeat customers.
	The same model that the pharmaceutical companies have.
	They don't want to cure disease.
	They want people to have chronic illness that they have to treat all the time.
	And if your medication can create more chronic illnesses, all the better.
	We'll have some more pills and things for you to take.
	And so that's what they're doing.
	He said, look, we have the least regulated thing and we have the largest number of commercialized GMOs And yet we've only commercialized 11 GM crops in 30 years.
	He says it's not regulations held GMOs back as much as it is a lack of useful or significant benefits.
	And I would say also the unwarranted risks.
	But now they are going to escalate this, and of course the FDA will, you know, just as they do for drugs, they will say for food, you're also free to do anything you want.
	We'll be right back.
	Welcome to the show.
	Let's talk a little bit about what is happening with the economy, and especially what is happening with gold.
	First of all, U.S.
	consumer confidence has plunged to the worst numbers in three years because of inflation and because of other things, even as the media is telling us everything's just wonderful.
	It's going to be kind of interesting to see how that plays out in the election if you believe it's going to be determined by actual counting of votes.
	And I'm pretty I'd say I've moved beyond agnostic on that to the other side, but let's just assume that it is going to be the narrative that the votes are actually going to decide this election rather than some people in some closed rooms.
	But as Americans continue to grapple with high prices and shaking labor market, consumer confidence index had the steepest drop since August of 2021.
	What was happening in August of 2021?
	We were looking at No jab, no job security.
	People are not very confident about what was going to happen.
	They're trying to weigh whether or not they're going to lose their job, lose their career, because they're not going to take this vaccine that's being coerced on them.
	And now things are in the same situation.
	So regardless of what happens with an election, regardless of whether or not people's votes are counted, You're going to see that they're voting in terms of where they want to put their money right now.
	Prices are still up more than 16% over the past three years as the job market shows signs of weakness.
	Well, again, the Fed is rigging everything.
	They rigged the inflation numbers.
	They rigged the jobs reports that we just saw.
	Oh, you know, we told you that there was a million jobs, more than there really were.
	But we're telling you the truth this time.
	You know, we told you that the last report.
	But this report, you can believe us, right?
	And they always do that.
	So, reactions.
	These are the people who looked at the consumer confidence.
	Said, well, people reacting to fewer hours, slower payroll increases, fewer job openings.
	See, that's what people see.
	And they say, even if all of that is not true, because the media is telling you that the labor market remains quite healthy, that we got very low unemployment, we got few layoffs, and we got elevated wages.
	So you're going to believe what they're telling you or what you see with your own eyes?
	Though the Federal Reserve cut interest rates by half a percentage point on Wednesday, Consumers will not reap the benefits immediately.
	It may take quite some time, especially if somebody's going to, you know, the credit card companies are very reluctant to lower the interest rates.
	And so are the, you got to refinance your mortgage.
	That's going to take months for that to happen if you did something like that.
	So what are we seeing as a result?
	We're seeing gold surging to new record highs.
	It got up to 2680 yesterday.
	Remember, it wasn't just last month that people said, well, you know, I think it's going to go up to 2,700 sometime in the beginning of 2025.
	We're most likely going to break 2,700 before the election, I'm guessing.
	It jumped to a new record high on soft data slump, as well as stocks and bonds dump and pump, says Zero Hedge.
	And Goldman Sachs is saying that gold buying on our desk has been relentless and silver is starting to move as well.
	Tony Aardman saw this coming for quite a while.
	He said, big problem is going to be having access to stuff and making sure, you know, once the mania starts and it hasn't even really started yet.
	Mania hasn't even started yet on the gold stuff.
	And so, something remarkable happened to the price of gold in early 2022, around the time of the Ukraine war.
	Having previously tracked gold ETF inflows into the tick, the price of gold then suddenly disconnected and exploded higher, even as paper gold, as some called it, slumped.
	And that was the big cue to me that something was amiss.
	So you can pull this up, Travis.
	This is the article, Goldman Commodity Traders, because I want to show people this chart.
	What happens is they charted out the price of paper gold, the ETFs, and of physical gold that's being sold.
	And as I point out, you know, these things are going up and down, but they're going up and down and sink.
	There's maybe a little bit of a lag on the paper gold price and that type of thing.
	But then that's it.
	Now look at that over to the right hand side.
	And then when the U.S.
	weaponized the dollar against Russia after the Ukraine war, now these things are going in opposite direction.
	Physical gold goes straight up and paper gold is going down.
	And that's continuing.
	And the gap is getting wider and wider.
	And so then he says, um, now after two years of this, it's finally happened.
	Attempts at brute price manipulation of gold, uh, via the ETFs, trying to use a paper goal to bring down the price of gold.
	Evidently it has finally ended.
	Gold is at all time highs and the ETF, the paper gold, uh, flows are finally turning positive.
	And so he says, while gold did correlate very closely with ETF holdings in the years prior to the Ukraine war, since then gold has completely lost all correlation with ETF holdings, as you see in that chart.
	Instead it's been correlating tightly with another data series, managed money, hedge funds, that type of thing, the net futures.
	So again, all of these ETFs and these derivatives, this is what caused the mortgage crash and everything.
	These are fictional things and manipulable things and they're not real.
	Yeah, get real estate or whatever.
	But even if you get real estate, they can still manipulate the price of your home and the real estate with these ETFs and cause it to crash and that type of thing, which is, you know, the concern with all this stuff.
	But if you got gold, you're hanging on to it.
	You already own that.
	You don't have any counter agreements to it like you did.
	That's what caused the problem with people's homes was that, you know, by dropping the value of the mortgage, dropping the value of the house, they got it below the value of the mortgage.
	People were underwater.
	They didn't have anything.
	If you buy gold, you own it.
	That type of thing is not going to happen.
	And so why is this happening?
	Well, a big part of this is the Central Bank of China.
	Their buying was the biggest driver behind gold's physical decoupling with paper holdings.
	Interestingly enough, of course, You know, GLD and these other paper things, many of them are coming out of Shanghai.
	Supposedly, reserves that are being held at the Shanghai Gold Exchange are supposed to back up this paper gold.
	Well, there's a lot of fraud.
	Meanwhile, while they were selling people paper gold, that they didn't have any gold to back up, most likely, the Central Bank of China was actually grabbing as much physical gold as they could.
	So where things get really interesting is that the ETF flows are now turning positive, and when combined with continued central bank buying, combined with record Indian gold imports, and when he says positive, he means that they're actually, the ETFs are actually buying gold now.
	So you've got central banks buying a lot of this Indian gold.
	Indian buying is up, combined with unprecedented demand for physical gold in the U.S.
	No wonder gold is hitting new all-time highs day after day.
	He said, but that's just the beginning.
	Another reason why gold is set to soar is the Fed's recent recalibration.
	Where Powell launched the easing cycle with a jumbo rate cut, which gold clearly thought was unnecessary.
	Hence, sending gold surging.
	And of course, if you look at the price of gold going back about a year ago, it's gone up about 40% in the last year.
	So what's going to happen at this point?
	Well, there's an interesting article by Adam Sharp.
	He says, metal mania will start soon.
	He said, I've had at least a half dozen Uber drivers pitch me on suspect investments.
	For a while, it seemed like every tip came for free and had invariably horrible picks.
	And this is kind of the, I forget who it was that said it, but they were talking about the stock market crash in the 1920s.
	He said, um, you know, once, once the taxi drivers are giving you tax or investment tips, you know, you've peaked out at the market, right?
	Well, he's saying I've had all kinds of stuff, uh, pitched to me by Uber drivers, but he says, I've never had a driver or a barber for that matter, pitch me on gold and silver.
	Despite the fact that gold regularly breaks out to new highs, we really haven't yet seen any signs of typical retail mania.
	So what he's saying is, you know, the public hasn't really caught on to what's going on, isn't paying attention to that.
	When they start paying attention to that, that's when the price is going to start skyrocketing.
	When it becomes, when everybody says, you see what's happening with gold?
	I mean, it's gone up 40% in the last year.
	But he thinks that when that is going to happen, he said, if you look at, first of all, he went back and he said, well, it's not just that I haven't had anybody Pitching this to me, but he said if you go back and you look at Google searches, you see that it's kind of bounced along in terms of Google searches for gold and stuff like that.
	It hasn't really changed over the last year.
	People are not looking for it.
	And he said he thinks that what is going to happen, so you know there's not really any retail interest, there's a lot of interest from central banks and others trying to get into it, kind of on the wholesale side.
	He said he thinks where the mania is going to kick in is when gold hits the psychological barrier of $3,000.
	When it gets to $3,000 or close to it, as soon as it tips over, remember it was a big deal when gold would flirt for longest time with $2,000.
	And again, those kinds of psychological barriers are real.
	Because people look at that and say, well, I don't know.
	I haven't seen it that high.
	It's the same reason that when you price something, instead of pricing it at $20, you put it at $19.99, right?
	People are more likely to buy it at $19.99 than if it goes to $20.
	And so when you look at that, people say, well, it's getting pretty expensive.
	Um, so I don't know, maybe that's at the top.
	I'm going to wait.
	And so it'll slow down when it gets to something like that.
	And then after it crosses that barrier, just as we saw when it crossed and stayed over 2000 for a little while, then all of a sudden people's like, okay, they're not paying attention to those other digits to the right of the number two.
	And so, um, Nassim Talib.
	It was the guy who wrote the book The Black Swan.
	He's somebody who has a lot of respect.
	Michael Meharry said, he's saying that people aren't seeing the real de-dollarization yet.
	So they're not really seeing what's going on with gold.
	They probably won't pay any attention to that until it flips over the 3,000 number.
	And they aren't really paying any attention to what's going on with the dollar either.
	Harry says, de-dollarization might seem like a wild conspiracy theory, but it is happening.
	Countries worldwide are trying to limit their exposure to the greenback, and the dollar's clout is slowly ebbing.
	Nassim Tlaib, best known for his book The Black Swan, said people are not seeing the real de-dollarization in progress.
	He pointed out the global transactions are still generally labeled in dollars, quote, as an anchor currency, unquote.
	But he says this.
	He says, but central banks, particularly BRICS, have been storing, that is, putting their reserves in gold.
	And then Meharry says, in other words, the dollar still serves as a primary medium of exchange, but more and more countries are turning to gold as a store of value.
	And as author Richard Turin puts it, the U.S.
	will tout the U.S.
	dollar's high percentage use in trade All the way to the bottom.
	But look, you know, it's used more than any, I know it's not as much as we had before, but you know, it's still the international standard.
	And they'll keep saying that as it goes all the way to the bottom.
	Well, in Canada, we're being told that the bank of Canada scraps its plan to create a digital dollar.
	Did they really?
	Is this a head fake?
	Well, you can color me skeptical.
	You can color me very skeptical.
	And I'll tell you why in a minute.
	Officials from Canada's central bank said that a digital currency or an electronic loonie, that's what they call their currency, the loonie.
	I think ours is loonie too, isn't it?
	Loonie tunes, yeah.
	Will no longer be considered after years of investigating and bringing one to market.
	I mean, they even took out a trademark for their digital currency.
	But now they have changed their mind, have they?
	Yeah, you believe that?
	I've got a bridge I can sell you.
	Instead of using resources to create a digital dollar, the central bank said that it will instead look at evolving the payment processes in Canada.
	Okay, so maybe they're going to do it as a backdoor at first, right?
	To say that they're not going to do their own currency doesn't mean that they might not hitch it on top of something else like Ethereum or something like that either.
	Most Canadians don't want a digital dollar, as previously reported by LifeSite News.
	This is a LifeSite News article.
	A public survey launched by the Bank of Canada to gauge Canadians' taste for the digital dollar revealed that an overwhelming majority of citizens want to leave cash alone and not proceed with a digital version of national currency.
	The conservative party is also looking to gather support for a bill that would outright ban the federal government from ever creating a CVDC and make it so that cash is kept as a preferred means of settling debts.
	As a matter of fact, conservative leader Pierre Polyvair has promised that if he's elected Prime Minister, he would stop any implementation of a digital currency or of a compulsory digital ID system.
	Now, you know, politicians are slippery, and politicians will say anything to get elected.
	But he's got more credibility than Trump, who doesn't really seem to understand the connection between a digital ID and CBDC.
	You know, he's just, you know, tell people, tell people this, you know.
	Yeah, no CBDC.
	I mean, what is CBDC, he says, right?
	Well, you might ask Jared Kushner or your Treasury Secretary, Steve Mnuchin, who were the first ones to float that idea.
	That was then also picked up by the Biden administration.
	It's just professional wrestling.
	But this is what makes me even more skeptical about all of this.
	And it's the fact that the politicians, again, they're lining up by political party.
	You've got the conservatives just saying we're anti-CBDC, we're anti-digital ID.
	And Mark Carney, Is being set up to replace Trudeau, uh, and to bring in the great reset.
	Who is Mark Carney?
	Well, this was a guy who ran the central bank of Canada, the bank of Canada.
	He ran that from 2008 to 2013.
	And then he went from running the, from running Canada central bank, he went to England and ran the bank of England from 2013 to 2020.
	This is a guy who is one of the ultimate insiders.
	And there's an excellent article on Last American Vagabond, breaking this all down by Matthew Errett, says in September 2013, he said, I found myself spearheading a campaign to break up the banks of Canada and shed light on the incoming bail-in legislation that was being set up to loot depositors' accounts.
	To launch that campaign, I made a short video with a colleague where I warned that a certain creepy figure named Mark Carney "...have been deployed by the highest echelons of the financier oligarchy centered in the city of London to oversee the controlled disintegration of the world economy and the transition to the new depopulation-oriented world order." Yeah, the techno-feudalism.
	He said, "...today Mark Carney, a darling of the central bankers and self-professed eco-warrior..." That's what he calls himself, an eco-warrior.
	Eco Warrior Banking has been named chairman of a new task force for the economic growth of Canada, where he will work closely with fellow Oxford ideologue and finance minister, Chrystia Freeland.
	Both of them have strong ties, of course, to the World Economic Forum.
	Chrystia Freeland, the one who made the banking moves against the trucker convoy that was pushing back against the lockdowns.
	She seized their bank accounts and things like that.
	She was instrumental in doing that.
	They want to oversee a transition of the economy into a green, decarbonized hellscape, he says.
	But, you know, they're not going to push the CBC yet, because they've got an election to win, right?
	They don't want to alienate the population.
	They want to bring it in through a backdoor.
	They want to bring it in slowly.
	People have now awakened to what this is, so they're going to have to do it from the inside, and do it with chaos, and they'll do it iteratively, as Fauci explained to us, how these people operate.
	They'll have to be very quiet about it.
	By the way, this is very interesting what Mark Carney did.
	This is a Canadian, and he became the first non-British governor of the Bank of England since it was created in 1694.
	That's pretty amazing.
	First time they've had somebody who's not British run the Bank of England.
	And he did it for seven years, from 2013 to 2020.
	Then he comes back to Canada to work with fellow Davos acolyte, Chrystia Freeland, as an eco-warrior.
	And we all understand, just as we've been talking about this week, with the UN Pact for the Future, that is 100% Being sold about the climate emergency.
	Yes, it's got all kinds of stuff there about planetary emergencies, and they can use that for the germ games if they want to bring that back out.
	But their central thing is still about the UN 2030 agenda and its sustainable development goals, right?
	So all that's all justified based on eco fear.
	And so this eco-warrior is trying to exploit the eco-fear.
	He was put in as the first non-British governor of the Bank of England since it was created in 1694.
	Oxford-trained Canadian technocrat.
	After training for four years as a Goldman Sachs investment banker, Where his activities helped to fuel the bubble that nearly brought down the world economy in 2008, Carney was brought into the governorship of the Bank of Canada to take on the role as a clean, conservative-minded Canadian central banker who's just going to be navigating through the chaos that his former employers had helped to create.
	Yeah, just same thing they did with Mario Draghi, by the way, who also worked for Goldman Sachs.
	They bring in these guys, they call them technocrats.
	Actually, in Greece, and that was one of the things that Nigel Farage, when he first got attention, he stood up in the European Parliament and said, how dare you, in the country that gave us democracy in Greece, how dare you remove the elected person and put in a technocrat?
	You know, a banker, a Goldman Sachs banker, Mario Draghi.
	And that's exactly what they did.
	So he's supposedly the guy who's bringing in a clean, conservative view of this.
	It was at this time that Carney became a member of the Rockefeller Foundation's Group of 30.
	He became a foundation board member of the World Economic Forum.
	And he became a leading participant at Bilderberg and Davos events.
	While still Bank of Canada governor, Carney was handed the keys to the Bank of International Settlements Financial Stability Board.
	The Bank of International Settlements, the Central Banks, Central Bank.
	These are people who transferred the gold, much of the gold, after World War II.
	And he was handed the keys to the Bank of International Settlement by fellow Goldman Sachs man Mario Draghi in 2011, where he managed global derivatives regulation.
	In other words, weaponizing it for the great taking.
	This truly is amazing what is happening here.
	The fact that he's working with Chrystia Freeland and again that's why I don't believe that they're moving back away from the central bank digital currency there.
	Calling for a new hierarchy of values which will shape the new system which Carney and Freeland, both of them Oxford-trained technocrats and both of them connected to the World Economic Forum.
	They believe it'll come online in short order.
	In an April 2020 interview on the post-COVID economy, Carney stated, quote, the great test whether this new hierarchy of values will prevail is climate change.
	And so again, look at that.
	Look at what is happening at the UN.
	The justification for global governance still is hanging on the eco fear.
	And he characterizes himself as an eco-warrior banker.
	The Carney-Friedland Great Reset Task Force for the past several years, they have both been laying the groundwork for a new system of measuring value aimed at reducing both national sovereignty and the nation's physical capabilities to sustain human life, while simultaneously doing grave damage to the environment.
	That's what this is all about.
	It's all about the eco-fear that these people are pushing.
	Well, the problem with Carney's Great Reset Vision is that, writes Matthew Errett, is that value is tied not to the rising of living standards.
	Value is not tied to human creative reason.
	Values not tied to national productive powers of labor that characterize the creative growth of human civilization for the past several centuries, but rather on the opposite of that.
	You see, what they value is the destruction of all of those things.
	Replacing value on reducing human activity, reducing carbon footprints, reducing traces of any human activity on earth, and reducing human.
	That's what this is about.
	It's not only being celebrated, but it's being financially incentivized.
	The deindustrialization of the West is the penultimate solution these people are pushing at, and financially incentivizing the deindustrialization of society, which is the next step to depopulation and tyranny, which is really the ultimate goal.
	So no, I don't think that them moving back from CBDC is real.
	I think what they see is that they've got to be more subtle and secretive about it.
	They have to bring it in by back doors.
	They can't be in your face about it because now people have taken notice of it.
	So meanwhile, gold has soared to new heights because of all this economic and geopolitical turmoil that we're seeing everywhere.
	And when you When you look at where it is at, I said before, one individual said, I think the retail, the public's mania over gold, metal mania, because there'll be gold and silver and a lot of other things as well.
	He says, I think that's going to kick in when it hits $3,000.
	Well, Ryan McIntyre says all roads lead to gold and prices above $3,000.
	Yeah, it's up 40% over the last year, but I think it's going to go quite a bit more.
	So, if you want to try to protect yourself from this planned takedown, deindustrialization, from the kind of economic and geopolitical chaos that we've got, if you want to have something as wealth protection on the side, go to davidknight.gold.
	that'll take you to Tony Ardiban, his Wyse Wolf Gold.
	You can go there, you can buy gold and silver, you can gradually start accumulating it and price averaging it out.
	You can sign up at a different level with his wolf pack and every month you can say, well, I wanna get 50 or $100 or whatever.
	And he'll send that to you on a regular basis.
	And as part of that big buying group, it's now well over a thousand people, that also gets you a group buy discount.
	So again, that's the information.
	That's what's happening.
	Make sure that you take advantage of that.
	We're going to take a break and then we come back.
	I've got a lot of comments that have come up here and when I catch up on some of those.
	And we're also going to take a look at what is happening with the families.
	Because again, we don't understand these existential threats that are coming at us.
	It is, I don't, when I look at this, I'm really, we're looking at a storm that is heading up our way.
	And I'm not supposed to get here for another couple of days, but we're already seeing some early effects of this.
	And there's nothing, anything, not anything that I can do to redirect that storm or that hurricane, right?
	But if we see it coming, we can tell people and they can take some action.
	They can get out of the way or they can, you know, put up boards on their homes or sandbags or whatever.
	If you see something that's coming, you can do something about it.
	But if you don't even see it, you're going to get blindsided.
	That's when, you know, when they didn't pay attention to the weather, they didn't pay attention to the hurricanes.
	That's when you had massive casualties in Galveston, Texas.
	At the turn of the 20th century, because they didn't see it coming.
	All of a sudden, hurricane is right on top of them.
	They weren't watching.
	And so that's what we're trying to do here.
	I'm trying to, I'm not, I'm not capable of changing the weather.
	I'm just telling you about the storms that are on their way and that you need to prepare.
	And one of the ways that you prepare is get some gold.
	That's one of the preparations that you need to do.
	We're going to take a quick break and we'll be right back.
	♪♪♪
	In a world of deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.
	You're listening to The David Knight Show.
	Besides preparing for gold, if you want to prepare for hurricanes, I mean this actually has some advice in it for natural disasters, as well as man-made disasters, as well as A literal war against us, or war within us as they're trying to bring in competing groups.
	CivilDefenseManual.com, two printed volumes of this, covers how to organize with your neighbors in a wise way, as well as to make sure that you got access to water.
	To food and many other things.
	If you want to get a sample of this, if you want to learn how to protect your most important asset that you need, which is your access to water, he's got that there as a free chapter that you can look at.
	That'll give you an idea of the depth of information, the wisdom that you can find in Civil Defense Manual.
	But learn about how you can provide water for yourself.
	And that's there for free.
	And if you see that, I think you'll want to get the rest of the information that's there.
	On Rockfan, Handy says, Great, I guess we'll be getting a lot of sick kids on the ambulance this fall.
	Yeah, we're talking about the parents being able to give flu shots at home through a nasal mist.
	And this was a flu vaccine that was taken off the market eight years ago.
	Not effective, but very dangerous.
	So now they're going to do is a nasal spray to be administered by parents at home.
	A rumble AP rumble seat.
	They've been doing the slow kill construct for decades with a Vax while manufacturing disease and profiting from suffering.
	Absolutely.
	On rumble.
	Don't frag me, bro.
	Musk being the first trillionaire soon coming up soon as an attempt to portray him as the next counter to Bill Gates of hell.
	Don't take Bill's brain chip.
	Take mine.
	Because I'm on your side.
	We must have the most powerful AI to fight their AI and so forth.
	Yeah, it is amazing.
	You know, we've got to get out of this mindset that we need a billionaire savior who's going to do everything for us.
	We have seen, along with the predictive programming, everybody talks about the predictive programming of things like Terminator and other things like that, or Contagion, you know, let's tell people about, get people afraid of, you know, popularize the idea of what's going to happen so we can use that against people.
	But nobody ever talks about the flip side of that predictive programming.
	They show you the horrible things that they're planning to do.
	But then, don't worry about it because we've got one person who's going to defeat the entire system, right?
	And that is the predictive programming that is there with every one of these predictive programming movies.
	The predictive programming that one person is going to save everybody.
	And I'm absolutely convinced that that's why everybody piles in behind Trump or behind Musk or whatever.
	Because of that predictive programming from Hollywood, no matter how bad or what the situation is, you got one guy who's going to come up against the system and defeat it single-handedly.
	Don't be a sucker.
	Don't fall for that.
	Rumble.
	Your hope does not lie in a politician.
	Your hope does not lie in laws or other things like that.
	Just as Scott Sher was saying yesterday.
	He said, yeah, a lot of people are saying, well, you know, hopefully you can win and maybe you can get something and we could call it Grace's loss or what happened to your daughter doesn't happen again or you're going to win a lawsuit against these people.
	He's trying to just publicize what they're doing.
	And to wake people up.
	And he says, look, our help is not going to come from a corrupted demonic justice system or corrupted demonic government.
	Our hope is in Christ.
	And no matter how dark things get, I like this analogy too, the white pill, right?
	If you're saying, well, you're just so pessimistic about what these people are doing.
	Yes, I am.
	And you can say, well, it's kind of black pilling.
	Well, no, the white pill is Christ.
	And even though we are going to go through these types of things with the other people around us as our nation is judged, and of course we do have some responsibility for that as well, because for the most part Christians are afraid to stand up and speak out because they're ashamed to.
	You know, don't say anything about this.
	As a matter of fact, coming up here, I've got a story here where you've got a coalition of Muslims and of Jews who are pushing back against the LGBT grooming of their kids, but the Christians aren't.
	They're not really involved.
	And the only group that's really involved is a group of Eastern Orthodox Christians who migrated here.
	But everybody else is so beaten down, so ashamed of, you know, standing up and saying anything.
	There was a saying in Japan that the nail that sticks up will be hammered down, or the nail that stands up.
	And that's what these people have seen over and over again, and they're afraid of that.
	Well, it's good that it says that you're either going to be hammer or anvil, right?
	And we can look at this and say, well, you know, if Christ is your foundation, you're not just a nail, you're an anvil.
	They're never going to beat you to death.
	Never going to beat you down.
	You have to have that kind of mindset.
	On Rumble, Sheely A, the bigs get the newly printed fiat first.
	They buy the hard assets.
	The stock market goes up.
	So does inflation.
	You lose, they win.
	That's right.
	They've always got the inside track.
	But again, there is still an opportunity for you to pursue the things that really matter in your life.
	And you still have an opportunity I think to do something about the gold before it goes crazy, because, you know, if you do something about it now, you're not going to be the last person in.
	That's the way the stock market is, right?
	You don't want to be the very last person to jump on the bandwagon.
	You know, you can get a little bit further if you get in the earlier you get in.
	On Rockfin, Steven Caspar.
	You have two choices in the next election, bad and very bad.
	That's right.
	Well, actually, you got choices of evil and evil.
	I don't vote for evil.
	Brian Deb McCartney replying Steven Caspar, dumb and dumber was already taken.
	That's right.
	Dumb and dumber.
	Yeah.
	So what is happening with our families, for example, right?
	You know, society is made up of families.
	If the families are taken apart, society can't stand.
	And that's true of our institutions as well.
	It's even true of things like churches, right?
	Churches are made up of a collection of families.
	The families are rotten and not working.
	Well, the church is not going to work.
	Your society is not going to work.
	Nothing is going to work.
	That's why they're focusing on the family.
	That's why they want to destroy the family, because they're trying to destroy society, as I said before.
	A father has now turned in his 10-year-old son to the police after his son allegedly threatened to shoot up a Florida school.
	Well, I think that should be taken seriously.
	But seriously, does this father not have any way to discipline this 10-year-old son?
	Yeah, he should have done it 10 years ago.
	He should have started this program.
	But I think at 10 years, it's still not too late.
	You don't have any relationship with your child to the extent that you can't understand what it is that you can use to teach him.
	Whether it is going to be some, you know, what kind of a punishment you can do for that.
	Even corporal punishment, like a spanking.
	You can't figure out what to do to discipline your 10-year-old child except to call the police on him?
	How pathetic is that?
	And that's what we're seeing in the schools as well.
	You know, you used to have corporal punishment, which as a parent, it'd be one of the reasons why I wouldn't want to put my kid in a government school.
	I don't want somebody spanking my child who doesn't love them.
	I'll do it myself.
	Out of love, right?
	As the Bible says, what parent that loves their child does not chastise or discipline them?
	That can include up to spanking.
	It's really not necessary.
	If you do it early, it's not necessary to do very much of it.
	Just so they understand that there's some consequences that can be had with things.
	But if you send your kid to school, the school's not going to discipline them for you.
	The school will call the police.
	And I've had a problem with that as well.
	Is it a better situation to have a dean of boys that starts out the school year, as they always did when I was in school, showing us their paddles?
	Explaining how they drilled holes in them to keep the wind resistance down so that they could go faster and sting harder?
	You know, make sure you don't get to know me better, you know, they would always say.
	And it's like, okay, I got the message.
	Sometimes a word to the wise is sufficient.
	Some of my friends had to actually go to the school of hard knocks.
	Whether they do it, apply it to the behind, right?
	Instead of, you know, doing something that's really going to injure the person.
	Something that's going to hurt but not injure them.
	But again, that's the school administering corporal punishment.
	Now they don't do that.
	Now what they do is they call the police and police come in and put a kid in handcuffs.
	Is that better?
	How does that fix anything?
	How does a kid learn anything like that?
	How is it better to give a kid who has behavioral problems, to give them a pill?
	Rather than to, you know, put him on Ritalin, rather than to teach them some self-discipline.
	These structures that we're using here are making the situation worse.
	And when I see that a father has turned in his son, wow!
	Turn him in after he made a threat to shoot up a high school on Snapchat, authorities announced Friday.
	And again, I wonder if this father, who obviously doesn't have a relationship with his child, Does he understand if the child is just really just mouthing off or is he serious about and capable of doing something like this?
	I mean, we all get frustrated and we all say things like that.
	And now you see it in terms of politicians, in terms of Lala and Trump.
	They want to take everybody, you know, you say something like, well, we're going to fight this thing.
	Oh, you're going to fight.
	Okay.
	We're going to, you're dangerous.
	You're violent.
	We're going to have to treat you as if you're dangerous and violent.
	If you use language like that, we've always had language like that.
	And now we have to treat all language as if it is an actual threat, and not just bombastic rhetoric or something.
	Was that the case with this child?
	Does his father know him at all?
	So, we're going from government is big brother, to government is big daddy, aren't we?
	We're going to raise the kids, going to be the father, we're going to provide, you know, what the family needs.
	We don't need men anymore.
	We've got big daddy is going to come in.
	He's going to give all the welfare, the food, the housing, and all the rest of this stuff.
	Who needs a father?
	Who needs a provider for that?
	And government is going to be called whenever we've got a discipline issue as well.
	Well, at the same time, you got a California city that is suing the state of California because the state of California is trying to get between the parents and the children.
	And that's what they're doing all the time.
	Taking away parental rights.
	They're destroying the family.
	The government is coming in and typically over LGBT issues.
	A new law allows schools to keep secrets from families.
	If you send your kid to school now, You literally have abandoned them to the state, and they are making no bones about it.
	So, do you want to have, as a society, we just start thinking about this, do you want to have taxpayer-funded public schools, or do you want to have families?
	That's the choice.
	Because there's absolutely no doubt about it that the public schools are weaponized to destroy the families.
	And the financial aspect of it is weaponized to destroy your home.
	You'll no longer have a home, as I pointed out earlier.
	Oh, sorry, we've got to raise the taxes again.
	Hey, you can't afford the taxes?
	Okay, take out a reverse mortgage for whatever equity you might have.
	We'll make sure you own nothing.
	Don't worry, when you own nothing, we'll put you on a universal basic income, we'll give you some welfare, we'll give you some kind of basic housing or something like that, but you're not going to be allowed to own anything.
	And it's going to be us or the Marxist school system.
	Because the Marxist school system is set up not only to take away your family, not only to destroy the family, not only to take away your home, but it is set up to breed Marxists.
	They refer to you as the breeder.
	But they're the ones who are producing Marxists.
	You can't have both a physical home and public schools.
	You can't have both a family and public schools.
	You better make your choice.
	Which side are you going to be on?
	While this is the first of its kind law in California, and doesn't prohibit teachers from sharing identity information with parents, it prevents schools from requiring them to do so.
	So it gives them the option to hide this.
	Teachers in public classrooms, from preschool to high school, will have the sole discretion on whether to share this with parents or not.
	In August, the City Council of Huntington Beach voted to express opposition to the Safety Act.
	It's always about safety, isn't it, when they destroy us?
	Well, I tell you, you see something, when they start talking about safety, you better take the safety off of your gun, metaphorically.
	A city of nearly 200,000, Huntington Beach, had previously passed an ordinance that required educators to inform parents if their children wanted to identify as the opposite sex as school.
	The regulation directly conflicts with the new state law, the city argues, and so there's a lawsuit over the Safety Act, and again, The absurdity of this to say, well, you know, they can tell the parents, but they don't have to tell the parents.
	Well, they're typically the ones who are doing the gender grooming.
	So, of course, they're not going to tell the parents.
	The lawsuit contends that the so-called Safety Act violates the 14th Amendment, which guarantees the rights of parents to make decisions about the education and the medical care of their children.
	It's not clear to me what in the 14th Amendment does that.
	As a matter of fact, I think that we need to have a simple parental rights amendment.
	As I pointed out, you know, 15 years ago, I was doing videos about that.
	And, you know, there's a parentalrights.org still is there.
	They've got a very simple, very short amendment that just lays out what parental rights are.
	And how they are superior to the claims on children, and it stands in direct contradiction to children's rights.
	You can't have children's rights and parental rights.
	It's only going to be one in control.
	And the UN began all this children's rights stuff, and it's now been adopted by state governments, by courts everywhere.
	So, in another example of this, A federal appeals court is looking at a group of parents who are asking now the Supreme Court, because of the failure of the lower court, because of the failure of the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals, to do the right thing.
	These parents are now going to appeal it to the Supreme Court.
	What are they asking for?
	They're asking to be able to exempt their children from the LGBTQ mandates in government schools, public schools, based on religious grounds.
	This is against our religion, and we should be exempted from this religion that you're pushing out, the religion of LGBT, which is a religion.
	Instead, the appeals court, the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals, has said, even though this was done once, And the parents won.
	They said, no, that's just a one-off.
	It's kind of like we did for the Amish.
	That doesn't apply to everybody.
	It only applies to that small group that's right there.
	A wealthy suburb of Washington, D.C.
	pulled off a coup last year.
	They united Muslims, Christians, and Jews against the school district.
	I don't see the groups of Christians except not American Christians.
	It appears to be Christians who have recently emigrated here.
	They pulled off a coup, this group, against the school district for its decision to not notify parents of children as young as three that they would be exposed to Pride storybooks, along with sex workers, kink, drag, gender transitions, and elementary age same-sex romance, and to let them opt out of the instruction.
	Well, here's how you opt out of a situation like that.
	You take your kids out of school and you educate them yourself, or you put them in a church school or a private school or something like that.
	The government schools cannot be trusted to abide by any of this stuff.
	You get an agreement with them, that's no better than the oath that they take to the Constitution and then violate every aspect of the Bill of Rights.
	These people cannot be trusted.
	The Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals sided with Montgomery County Public Schools in May, deciding not to issue an injunction against the practice challenged by parents of these most religiously diverse county in the United States, they said, in a case that prompted dozens of friend-of-the-court briefs.
	But now what is happening is they have another case, and They said, first of all, parents Tamer Mahmood and Inas Barakat, Jeff and Svetlana Roman, Chris and Melissa Persak, as well as parents associated with Kids First, are now asking the Supreme Court to evaluate the Fourth Circuit's reasoning.
	That no one was forced to change their religious beliefs or conduct in violation of the 1972 SCOTUS precedent of Yoder.
	The ruling demotes Yoder into an Amish one-off.
	That is difficult to apply elsewhere because of the unusual degree of separation from modern life that the Amish religious faith compels.
	And it forces parents to accept that public schools will disrupt their kids' religious development.
	You see, they're trying to claw back even the educational freedoms that the Amish won long ago.
	As I pointed out, they were there at the very beginning with educational freedom.
	And so they're now trying to claw that back.
	The petition was filed September the 12th, but the docket shows that it hasn't prompted any Friend of the Court briefs as of September the 20th.
	Nearly two dozen attorneys, generally led by Virginia's Jason Mirarez and Jewish groups, supported the parents of the Fourth Circuit, and the Council on American-Islamic Relations led protests for them.
	Christians seem to be silent.
	What is going on with this?
	The opposition movement was largely driven by Muslim and then also by Ethiopian Orthodox parents.
	And the board members in response compared them to white supremacists and xenophobes.
	Well, the Muslims and the Ethiopian parents are not white supremacists.
	And they're not afraid of strangers from the outside, because they are the strangers from the outside that have come in.
	But you see, this is why Christians are silent, right?
	They throw the usual insults at them.
	White supremacists, xenophobes, and everything.
	Oh, I don't want to be called hateful.
	Oh, that would hurt my Christian witness with people.
	They're afraid of the labels.
	They're afraid of the shaming.
	They're more afraid of the labels and the shaming than they are of what's going to be done to their children.
	It's just pathetic.
	So, these people have recently come in and said, no, you're not doing that to my kid.
	Well, good for them.
	Somebody's got to stand up and do it.
	There is a war on ordinary families.
	This is from American Reformer.
	It says, this is a review of a book written by Tim Carney called Family Unfriendly.
	How our culture made raising kids much harder than it needs to be.
	Well, I think that's the understatement.
	It's not that it's unfriendly.
	It's not that these are unintended consequences.
	It was targeted.
	That was the purpose.
	He says, in 2013, when my wife was pregnant with our sixth child, we decided it was time to retire the hand-me-down minivan we'd been driving and decided to get a more roadworthy vehicle.
	So one sunny day, I drove onto the lot of a major dealership near my campus and I got out to browse.
	When the smiling salesman walked up and asked if he could help me find something, I told him I need a vehicle that would seat eight.
	He paused, he frowned, he confessed, I don't think we got anything on the lot that will seat eight people.
	So just like that, I became another casualty in America's war on large families.
	We ultimately ended up with a 15-passenger van.
	The war on large families takes its toll on families like mine.
	God ultimately blessed us with seven children in numerous ways.
	Occupancy restrictions, car seat regulations, similar governmental measures function effectively as a tax on children.
	Even more pernicious are the anti-family norms promoted by media in the corporate world, child-free public spaces, and ringing about alleged irresponsibility of having children in the midst of the climate catastrophe, they say.
	And the readiness of concerned citizens call the cops on parents of children who are playing unsupervised.
	Well, you know, I've known families who had a lot of children like that.
	And they talk about how a lot of places, especially in Democrat areas, people come up to them and try to shame them, try to lecture them.
	You have too many kids, don't you realize what's going on?
	All the rest of this stuff.
	And it is very challenging for them.
	There was recently an article about how the minivan is so uncool.
	It is like the sign of how you've been enslaved to your family.
	That's the way it's being sold.
	You know, not that children are a blessing from God and not, you know, having how wonderful it is to have all these different kids and this diversity.
	What's being sold is, oh yeah, you're just enslaved.
	You've got to drive this minivan.
	Look, I mean, I drove a minivan for quite a while, and I hated driving it.
	It drove like a minivan.
	It was really an awful car.
	And I like sports cars, and I like handling, but I liked even better hearing my kids sitting right behind me cackling and having a good time.
	That was much better than any ride I could have in a sports car.
	Also, I'm just going to say, if you're above 21, 22 and still caring about being cool, grow up.
	What are they going to think of me?
	What are they going to think of me?
	Grow up.
	Very good.
	It's time for Travis to engage his dad bod and all the rest of the stuff.
	He's sounding like a dad already.
	That's great.
	A couple months away from the kid arriving and he's already there.
	That's good.
	Well, I thought this was interesting.
	Mark Driscoll, I mean, I've got my issues with Mark Driscoll, and of course we had that back and forth.
	We were speaking at a thing more recently and other things in his past.
	But this is kind of interesting because at the church that he's got now, they put up a sign that says, Jesus Christ 24, like a campaign sign, right?
	And the city sent him a letter.
	He's in Seattle, Washington.
	And so he puts up this sign up front that says, Jesus Christ 24, instead of Trump 24 or La La 24.
	The letter said, we're now receiving complaints regarding a temporary sign that was erected adjacent to the church.
	This sign does not appear to be a political sign.
	So what did he say?
	They say, no, it is political.
	After sharing a partial copy of the letter and an image of the sign on social media, he said, the government asked us to take down our Jesus 24 sign.
	My response?
	We will not comply.
	We will multiply.
	So then he announced that everybody in the congregation could receive a free sign, and he urged his congregation to consider voting according to their faith, not according to partisan politics.
	He said, as you're choosing your political leader, make sure you choose your eternal Savior.
	In the spring, he urged Christians to approach the 2024 presidential election with sobriety.
	He said he found neither Biden nor Trump attractive candidates.
	Yeah, again, is it bad or, you know, bad or worse?
	Dumber, dumber?
	No, it's evil or evil, folks.
	That's the other thing, too.
	You know, focus on, yes, you have been given the opportunity to have a say.
	And the biggest say that you have is in local government.
	So why don't you start with those people who told you to take the sign down.
	Instead of focusing on the presidential election, focus on those people who said you can't put up a sign that says Jesus 24.
	Get them out of office.
	And you've got a better chance of getting them out of office than you've got getting in the person that you want to have, or the lesser evil that you want to have.
	You don't have much say-so, even if the elections were honest.
	You have virtually no say-so in who the president is going to be.
	Virtually none.
	But you do have much more of a say the closer you get to yourself, right?
	And make sure that you understand who's really going to be the head of your family.
	It's not going to be Trump or Elon Musk.
	It's going to be Jesus Christ.
	That's what he should be telling his people.
	Fix your family first, right?
	And that really should be the meaning of Jesus 24.
	Focus on Christ as king, not as a presidential savior, or even who the local city council or school board is going to be.
	Do it first with yourself.
	He said, I would like somebody who is younger, he'd said before, but they're both in the flesh.
	We have a Democrat that's in the flesh.
	We've got a Republican in the flesh.
	Now, let me tell you something.
	These are satanic minions.
	They're not in the flesh.
	The demons are in their flesh.
	I mean, that's really what's happening with these guys.
	And just to, you know, when we look at the weak, useless state of what the official Church is, Church of England, one of the best examples of this, They're under fire because they put out a job description for somebody who's going to be, you know, super woke, DEI type of person, and they're going to pay them about double what they're paying the parish priests.
	And so this created a lot of pushback.
	First of all, for even having a position like that, and then for paying them twice as much as they do the parish priests.
	But there's another angle to this.
	First of all, what are the woke qualifications of this?
	This is for the Diocese of London and the Church of England.
	They want a job, the job title is Head of Racial Justice Priority.
	They need to be telling people about God's judgment and Christ's grace, instead of focusing on racial justice.
	She's saying focus on racial justice.
	You're trying to get payback rather than forgiveness, right?
	Do you want forgiveness from Christ for what you've done, or do you want revenge from these other people?
	That's the whole problem from a Christian standpoint, is that this whole thing about racial justice is punishing people, first of all, for things that they didn't do.
	Secondly, it's all about this get-even mentality.
	That's not Christian at all.
	That's not what we're called to do.
	Get even?
	Get retribution?
	No.
	Vengeance is mine.
	I'll repay, says God.
	And Jesus has paid.
	So if you can't leave the things that were done to you at the cross, you're not going to be able to leave the things that were done by you at the cross either.
	So they've got all of Christianity wrong.
	They want to foster a culture within the Diocese of London built on love, fairness, equity, justice, collaboration, integrity, but not on Christ.
	You need to have a track record of delivering successful outcomes in relation to equality, diversity, inclusion, DEI, in any other order, and in culture.
	Many ways of working within large, complex, challenging institutions.
	So they're going to pay this person $88,000 compared to the average priest's salary of $42,000.
	And so, in a pushback, people are writing things.
	A Catholic priest said, salaries like this are an insult to hard-working and often undervalued clergies.
	Another one said, Well, he said the Diocese of London has a five million pound deficit.
	In other words, they spent five million pounds more than they've got, and now they're going to have this new office that pays more than they would have with two priests.
	He said diocese can't waive deficit riddled accounts at parishes, demanding over a hundred thousand pounds in parish share, and then pull this kind of salary out of nowhere.
	So he's pointing out, look, you're bankrupt, number one.
	Number two, you're going to these smaller diocese and saying, get your contributions up.
	You got a deficit here, right?
	So you got to send in more money to the denominational control or whatever, while the denominational control is out there creating a DEI officer that is going to make twice as much as these guys that tell them to go out and drum up the contributions here.
	It's just a business.
	See, that's the bottom line.
	It's just a business to these people.
	They're haggling over the money stuff.
	They're haggling over the position and all the rest.
	They don't care.
	They don't believe any of this stuff.
	And they really don't care.
	The U.S.
	Army admits that over 9,000 soldiers were trained with slides that call pro-lifers terrorists.
	That's what we're headed up against.
	And if you can't stand up and stand against your children, being groomed sexually in schools, being taught race hatred, being used in these struggle sessions, turned into little Marxists, if you can't and won't stand up to that, Well, guess what?
	They're going to call you terrorists not just because you're pro-life.
	They're going to call you a terrorist because you're pro-biological, because you say there are two sexes.
	That's what they're going to come after you for.
	We're going to take a quick break, and we'll be right back.
	Here's a little song I wrote.
	You might want to hear it in your pod.
	You'll owe nothing.
	And be happy.
	Ain't got no cash.
	Ain't got no car.
	But 24 booster shots in your arm.
	Oh, nothing.
	Be happy.
	You can't even buy it in the store because of your low social credit score.
	Owe nothing.
	Be happy.
	You'll owe nothing.
	And be happy.
	Be happy and eat the bugs.
	They're doing what?
	In the place they named after me?
	Good thing I have The David Knight Show to keep me informed on the plots of these traitors.
	Making sense.
	Common again.
	This is The David Knight Show.
	On Rumble, Marky Mark, thank you for the tip.
	Thanks to government out-regulating large engines and cars, a large family won't be able to get a van or a large SUV to hold a lot of kids.
	That's another attack on the family.
	Yeah.
	Lock them up.
	You'll own nothing.
	You'll be happy.
	You won't be outside and you'll be happy too.
	You'll be inside, going nowhere.
	You'll own nothing.
	You'll do nothing.
	You'll go nowhere.
	He also writes, you can thank easy divorce laws for family breakdown as well.
	Moreover, you can thank women for filling For filing 80% of those divorces, and the church has a greater divorce rate than the world does.
	Men have noticed that we're walking away from marriage and family.
	David's bridal was just the first casualty.
	The company, the largest one, selling wedding dresses and things.
	Any society oppressing men like this one deserves to collapse.
	Well, that's why we need to take the initiative on this.
	It really is difficult.
	It's not just that women have taken the initiative on the divorces.
	But there's also an article saying that, for the first time ever, men have become more religious than women, because they really are pushing the focus of this attack on the family is really focused on women, as I've said for the longest time.
	They are now focusing them on their career and on themselves, and not on their children, not on their family.
	That is so unnatural.
	That is a complete reversal.
	of the way society has always been.
	It's always been the husband who is more focused on the outside, providing and that type of thing, bringing things back, and the nurturing of women.
	That is in our nature as men and women.
	And that is the path to a more fulfilled life, but they don't want that.
	On Rockfan, Wes Robertson says, Parents are at fault for every furry trans kid out in America.
	Weak, limp-wristed, pathetic Gen Xers who live vicariously through their children.
	Well, we saw that in spades, didn't we?
	With that Tim Walz signing where he brought people in.
	They had that little child there, six years old.
	And the local press that was there was all excited about the fact that they were doing everything to continue to gaslight these kids, and puts the microphone in this six-year-old boy's face, and he's all dressed up like a girl, and it's like, so you tell us about it.
	Are you trans?
	He doesn't know anything.
	He can't talk.
	He doesn't know.
	This whole thing about gender stuff, it's not coming from him.
	It's coming from these parents.
	They want attention.
	They want to be there, interviewed by the press.
	They want to be invited to Tim Walz's presentation there.
	They're like stage mothers for these unfortunate kids who become child stars.
	Or they're like the parents who say, my kid's got cancer when they're not sick at all, so they can have the Munchausen by proxy thing.
	That's what it truly is.
	Jason Barker, are we outsourcing our parental responsibilities that young now?
	Yeah, evidently they are, Jason.
	Good to see you.
	If you were the parent of a three-year-old that winds up with strangers who are reading LGBTQ content, then you probably should not be a parent.
	Well, you have abandoned responsibility as a parent and you abandoned your child to the state really is true.
	Let's take a look at what is happening with tech.
	I thought it was kind of funny.
	I could not find clips of this online, but John Mulaney was hired to do an AI event to do comedy there.
	And he wound up roasting this company, which is Salesforce.
	I mean, Salesforce and they bring in 45,000 people and they're all focused on how they're going to get rid of a Salesforce.
	They don't want a Salesforce.
	They want to replace everybody with AI.
	And so he looks at this and he says, um, He starts attacking what the essence of this thing is.
	They hired him for us.
	A 45-minute set.
	And again, I haven't found anything yet.
	I imagine some of these things are going to surface eventually.
	But during his 45 minutes that he's doing a comedy routine, Mulaney skewered the AI industry for its willingness to give up human agency.
	Often fundamentally flawed chatbots that are feeding users purported information about current events or work advice or even medical diagnoses.
	He says, if AI is truly smarter than us and tells us that we should all die, then I guess we should die, right?
	And, you know, quite frankly, this is what concerns me.
	I mean, he's making a joke of this, but that really is going to be what happens when people think, well, AI, it's not biased at all.
	An unbelievable amount of money building bias into the AI.
	It's incredibly biased.
	Are they going to look at it and say, well, it's completely right.
	It's expert.
	I completely trust it.
	I'll do everything he says.
	It says to kill me, kill myself.
	I'll do it.
	And we've seen this over and over again with people who are dependent, who are so trusting And Google Maps, for example, one of them that I saw that was a road out, said road is out, the bridge is out, and all this kind of stuff, but Google Maps told them to keep going, and the guy drove, and their car went over the edge.
	Killed his wife, he was severely injured, because he's just, you know, following whatever the computer tells him to do.
	And somebody put up a meme.
	They're holding up in front of the camera, they're holding up Google Maps, which tells them to go straight ahead.
	Straight ahead, it's a body of water.
	But yeah, people will do that.
	That's why AI is going to be so powerful.
	It'll be an expert.
	It'll be more believable than Fauci is to these people.
	So he said, let me get this straight.
	You're hosting a future of AI event in a city that has failed humanity so miserably, San Francisco.
	I wonder if he noticed the cops dressed up like chickens.
	He should have brought them in and let them do the comedy routine here.
	And he says, this is some of the vaguest language ever devised has been used here in the last three days of this conference.
	The fact that there are 45,000 quote-unquote trailblazers here, that couldn't devalue the title of trailblazer any more than it already does.
	You can't have 45,000 trailblazers all there.
	And of course, the point is that Salesforce is there to get rid of the humans, to not have a Salesforce.
	They're going to upsell people with AI.
	You also thank the crowd for fundamentally changing the world for his almost three year old son.
	Ensuring that he will quote, never talk to an actual human again, unquote.
	Instead, a little cartoon Einstein will pop up and give him a sort of good answer and probably refer him to another chat bot.
	He said, and then began to talk about the hallucinating stuff.
	And then they use an anecdote about himself and his son.
	He says, we're just two guys who are hitting wiffle balls badly and yelling good job at each other.
	He said, and that's kind of the same energy that we've got here at Dreamforce of the Salesforce people focusing on AI.
	But as I pointed out earlier, you know, we look at Sam Altman, you know, he's demanding a subsidy for energy.
	You know, where's my subsidy to get my own personal nuclear power plant so I can create this massive machinery of surveillance, propaganda, and censorship, right?
	There he is with Washington.
	Yeah, where's my money?
	I need my money.
	And he'll get it.
	He'll get it, whether it's Trump or whether it's Lala.
	He might even get it from Biden before the two of them, either one of them, gets in.
	But he also, as he's holding court and talking about The amazing future that is coming.
	He invents a new unit of time, says futurism, when he talks about his promises.
	And so he's talking about how the future is going to be so amazing.
	Our grandparents would think this is all magic.
	This is something we've heard over and over again.
	You know, Arthur C. Clarke had the famous quote.
	He said, technology that is sufficiently advanced is indistinguishable from magic.
	And he actually got that right.
	I would say it's indistinguishable from sorcery.
	From evil, from the pharma-kia.
	Technology is sufficiently advanced, becomes evil.
	Just like when your entire focus of your life is on money and the love of money and the love of technology and all that, that's evil, becomes evil.
	And it's put to evil uses.
	But the bigger the promises started to sound, he started talking about magic.
	He said, we're going to have things like, we're going to fix the climate.
	Yeah.
	It's not going to change at all.
	We're going to fix it.
	It's going to be just fixed.
	It's going to be really hellacious.
	Establishing a space colony.
	And this is one of the things that he actually said.
	The discovery of all physics.
	We're going to know everything.
	We're going to become god-like.
	When will all this happen?
	Well, he says a few thousand days.
	And so they laugh at that and they say, a few thousand days is very vague on that.
	But when you start talking about thousands of days, you're talking about years.
	2,000, 8,000 days maybe.
	Well, we're talking about then 5 to 21 years.
	This is kind of a new unit of time.
	We're going to get this done in a few thousand days.
	It's possible we might have superintelligence in a few thousand days.
	It may take longer, but I'm confident that we'll eventually get there.
	You see, this is kind of evolution in reverse.
	The evolutionists will tell you that time is the magic wand.
	Right?
	And if you've got enough time, anything and everything will happen.
	You will know all physics.
	You can set a chimpanzee in front of a keyboard, and the chimpanzee, through a succession of random keys, given enough time, will type out Shakespeare.
	No.
	No.
	No, that'll never happen.
	As a matter of fact, the probabilities will stack up and it'll be even more or less likely that it'll happen.
	And so what these people are saying is that in the future, We're going to have godlike artificial intelligence.
	All we need is a few thousand days.
	Just a few thousand days.
	Thanks for joining us.
	Have a good day.
	A few thousand, as a matter of fact.
