	you you
	Using free speech to free minds.
	You're listening to The David Knight Show.
	As the clock strikes 13, it's Thursday, the 10th of October, Year of Our Lord 2024.
	Well, today we're going to take a look at Milton.
	As I said yesterday, one of the key issues that we always have with this is the fact that we have people who are hyping this to the nth degree, and that gets people to stay in danger's way.
	But fortunately, we don't know, well, we don't know Exactly what the damage has been, but fortunately it came down extensively and came in in a much different area than they said.
	So we're going to take a look at that, and we're going to take a look at both the left and the right, pushing panic about weather.
	No weather like this has ever happened before.
	This is the most important election of our lifetime, and on and on.
	But a new study, a couple of studies have come out, looking at plastics in your brain.
	Interestingly, they come through the nose.
	I wonder how that could have happened.
	Who knows? That's what we'd say, right?
	We'll be right back. Well, Marjorie Taylor Greene is still being attacked by the mainstream media for saying that there was such a thing as geoengineering.
	And, of course, we all know that there is.
	The question is, was that involved in what happened with Hurricane Helene?
	And so, as she's being attacked, she puts out a post and says, yes, they can control the weather.
	Here is Obama's CIA Director John Brennan talking about it.
	Anyone who says they don't or makes fun of this is lying to you.
	By the way, the people know it, and they hate all of you who try to cover it up.
	And, of course, Brennan and others hate us as well.
	It's kind of a mutual thing.
	Here's the clip that she put up.
	Another example is the array of technologies, often referred to collectively as geoengineering,
	that potentially could help reverse the warming effects of global climate change.
	Thank you.
	An SAI program could limit global temperature increases, reducing some risks associated with higher temperatures and providing the world economy additional time to transition from fossil fuels.
	This process is also relatively inexpensive.
	The National Research Council estimates that a fully deployed SAI program would cost about $10 billion yearly.
	As promising as it may be, moving forward on SAI would also raise a number of challenges for our government and for the international community.
	On the technical side, greenhouse gas emission reductions would still have to accompany SAI to address other climate change effects, such as ocean acidification, because SAI alone would not remove greenhouse gases from the atmosphere.
	On the geopolitical side, the technology's potential to alter weather patterns and benefit certain regions of the world at the expense of other regions could trigger sharp opposition by some nations.
	And as with other breakthrough technologies, global norms and standards are lacking to guide the deployment and implementation of SAI and other Yeah, of course, this is nothing new.
	He's there, by the way, at the Council on Foreign Relations.
	And if you say that these people are subversive globalists, well, then you're a conspiracy theorist, right?
	Yeah, they are. And so is the CIA. The CIA were the people who are always pushing this idea of peak oil,
	of fossil fuels, you know, they were the ones pushing this narrative, I'm sure, behind the
	scenes to Time and Newsweek, who foolishly said in 1979, we're going to be out of oil and gas by the
	middle 1980s. And so we got to have something else. We got to have power. Now they're not saying you
	got to have power. They're saying you don't need power. You're not going to get power. Artificial
	intelligence is going to get all the power. We're going to pretend that nuclear energy is clean,
	and doesn't have any issues. And we're going to let these corporations build it themselves,
	and do it as fast as possible.
	No concern about safety, right?
	But look, the issue has been, and I talked about this over a decade ago, they used to have, and still do, have annual geoengineering conferences.
	And at one of them, I remember reading on air the paper from a paper that was put there, and they said, well, of course, and this is a decade ago, we know we can modify the weather.
	The question is, who gets to control the thermostat?
	And I joked about it. I said, you know, that's the issue between men and women.
	It's always too cold or too hot.
	And I said, you know, and that's exactly what he said much more recently.
	Who gets to control the thermostat, essentially?
	Here's the deal. Maybe we could keep our cars and SUVs, and maybe they could get rid of HAARP, right?
	Would that be a good trade-off?
	You see, the reality is the media is weaponizing this more than the Pentagon is, quite frankly.
	They're weaponizing the weather.
	That's what the green agenda is always about, is weaponizing the weather.
	And now I'm starting to see it on the right, because now everything that happens, everything that's unusual, anything that can be perceived as an anomaly, whether it is an anomaly or not, now you've got the right-wing people out there saying, it's geoengineering.
	They're putting this up just like the other people.
	As soon as there's a storm, if it's hot, if it's cold, if it rains, if it doesn't rain, that's climate change.
	And now the same thing is being done by the right because they can grab headlines with it.
	The left pushes man-made climate change.
	The right is now pushing geoengineering.
	Well, I just got to say that fortunately, if...
	Well, I mean, it did hit some other people, but I think it hit a less populated area.
	And there have been casualties in the area where it landed, so I'm not trying to minimize that.
	But the reality is that if they were steering these hurricanes...
	They need to work on their steering ability, okay?
	It's kind of like the Tesla self-driving cars.
	You can see that it came in down around Brandon.
	Brandon, I'm sorry. Yeah, Brandon.
	It's dark Brandon now.
	It's... Power outage.
	But it went into Bradenton rather than into Tampa.
	And of course, one of the reasons that...
	And it also de-intensified.
	So when it hit, it was 120 miles per hour.
	And so that made it a Category 3.
	And it landed about 70 miles south of Tampa.
	One of the big issues was that if it came into Tampa, it did a great deal of damage.
	Of course, higher population center there.
	But if it damaged the port of Tampa, that was a critical part of the fuel infrastructure for the entire state, coming in by water through Tampa Bay's port.
	And so from that standpoint, when we look at it, it has a significantly further south track.
	It's going to miss Orlando in terms of the eye of the hurricane.
	And it is now diminished as of 5 o'clock this morning when I checked.
	It was 85 miles an hour.
	So it's down to a tropical storm.
	It's no longer a hurricane.
	It was still over land, I believe, about to head out into the Atlantic.
	And so maybe Walt Disney put in a call to the Pentagon.
	But in terms of dollars, in terms of the number of people that were exposed to this, and in terms of the intensity, all of it was much less than they had said.
	And, as I said, growing up in Florida, I heard this my entire life.
	You know, this is going to be the worst storm we've ever seen.
	It's going to directly hit us and all the rest of the stuff.
	And that's not to minimize what happens with it.
	But they always would overhype it.
	And it would always lose steam just as it was getting to the coastline.
	In most cases, it would.
	Or rapidly lose steam here.
	And so, you know, we were hearing stuff like, this is forever going to change the coastline.
	This is going to cost hundreds of billions of dollars.
	This may cost as much as we sent to Ukraine and all the rest of this stuff.
	You will, if you stay in your home, that will be your tomb.
	That's what the mayor of Tampa was doing, a Democrat.
	But anyway, they were even saying, when it was out in the Atlantic, and it was oscillating back and forth to class, category four and category five, we're going to have to have another category.
	We've got to have a category six, this type of thing.
	And so the hysteria from both the left and the right about this, And again, it does not match the hurricanes that we know about 150 years ago.
	Or a century ago.
	That type of thing. So the climate change thing is not true.
	And then the next part of this.
	Okay, this is in the anticipation of it.
	The tornadoes that were coming in.
	And the tornadoes are very serious.
	As I said, we went through...
	So many hurricanes near and far when I was in Florida, but the most devastating thing to us personally was a tornado.
	I never saw anything like that.
	And it hit our house at one point in time.
	We were hit by a tornado. Now, this was put up.
	I took a screenshot of this because you need to see what was said by somebody named Concerned Citizen.
	I don't know who this person is.
	This is an anonymous account.
	And they said, two tornadoes.
	Picture of two tornadoes. Yeah, that's right.
	And it's been reported that multi-numerous tornadoes today across Florida estimated at over 50.
	When has this ever happened before?
	And they put up a video.
	And notice, and this is what I really appreciate that Twitter has done.
	This is one improvement that Elon Musk has made, even though I'm shadow banned.
	This community notes here.
	Readers added this context.
	This is not even a video of tornadoes formed by Hurricane Milton.
	This is a video of a storm in Nebraska in 2014.
	When has this ever happened before?
	Well, it happened in Nebraska in 2014.
	That's when it happened before.
	Look, tornadoes are frequently spun off of hurricanes, and they can be the most damaging aspect of it.
	But everybody, all the conservatives, and again, the geoengineering people, and they're not saying that geoengineering is a fraud.
	It absolutely is not a fraud.
	But when you come in and you've got people, I don't know who this is.
	This is an anonymous account. Are they some kind of a, you know, false flag troll?
	You know, that happens.
	That's a real thing with anonymous accounts like that, especially the ones that are promoted by the social media accounts.
	Concerned citizen. Is that a CIA account?
	Yeah. What is that?
	I don't know. Put your name out there.
	We have seen this type of thing before.
	Unfortunately, if you go back and look at Hurricane Andrew that went through a homestead, it was horrific.
	And it was primarily a wall of tornadoes before the hurricane.
	That was in 1992.
	And one of these quotes that is put into the article that was put up by W&D, W&D trying to tell you this is geoengineering, this is, we've never seen anything like this before.
	They become as ridiculous and as over-the-top as the climate change people on the left.
	One person says, I've lived in Florida for 36 years, and I've never seen anything like this.
	Have you? Well, if you lived there for 36 years, 32 years ago, in 1992, Hurricane Andrew hit.
	There are many, many tornadoes, as I said.
	I went through Homestead and that type of thing.
	The most expensive, by far, A hurricane that had hit Florida at that point in time.
	And that was four years after this person moved there.
	So I don't know what the deal is.
	But when has it ever happened before?
	Well, in Nebraska, 10 years ago, that was where that picture came from.
	You see what I'm saying? Let's stick to what's real, folks.
	All of this climate change and geoengineering is a distraction from FEMA. FEMA needs to be what we focus on and what we shut down and cut off.
	We've got to focus on the institutions, not on the histrionics.
	It's hysterical people on the left and right.
	And then this. We've got friends from college.
	One of them has really veered off to the extreme left.
	Because of a lifetime as a teacher in government schools, and it has really radicalized her.
	And so yesterday, she was all about DeSantis, DeSantis, DeSantis.
	This is criminal. It's almost as if he had engineered this storm.
	And actually, he did a lot to prepare for it.
	But I said, if you want to criticize government's role in the storm, just take a look at how the road is jammed.
	And how people can't get out of there.
	And part of the problem is that the government, all governments, don't want to build roads anymore.
	And it's become so corrupt and so ineffective and impotent in their road building stuff that they can't build anything anymore.
	The whole process has become such insider corruption that they can't and they won't build roads.
	And so imagine if they had had adequate roads.
	And I mean, where typically you're not near capacity, which is the situation in Florida and these arteries that are like this.
	Those roads are very 75.
	They've been down there for quite some time, and I imagine it's a lot more crowded than it was last time I was there.
	But it was near capacity.
	They should have expanded it.
	But they don't.
	And so one thing that they did as a testimony to this is that they opened the road shoulders so that they have wider facilities.
	But how about putting some money into the infrastructure of our roads?
	And they don't do it because they all know, Republican and Democrat, that the plan is to make sure that people don't have private vehicles.
	Think about the fact that if we didn't have private vehicles, we talked about this yesterday.
	What are you going to do?
	Worst case scenario, as Jason Barker pointed out, you know, your electric vehicle.
	And I said, yeah, it brings all new meaning to range anxiety, doesn't it?
	You're trying to get out of an area because you think something's coming.
	And you don't have the range to get out of there.
	The gas stations were closing down, especially around those areas right there at the center.
	About 70% of them were closed on Tuesday, had no gas and that type of thing.
	But that really would not be that big a difference issue if you didn't have to sit in traffic for so long.
	If you could get to where you wanted to go, that would alleviate a lot of that.
	And of course, as I pointed out, this has been a long-term known problem, as Joel Skousen pointed out in his book, Strategic Relocation.
	He said, be careful about Florida.
	You know, whenever there's some kind of emergency or something, you're going to be stuck in there.
	Because there's only a few major highways going north and south to try to get out of there.
	And so, you know, that's the road capacity is something you criticize the government for, but that's not what she's criticizing.
	She's all about the green agenda, the LGBT and other things like that.
	Milton reached a maximum intensity of 180 miles per hour when it was out in the water.
	That's not unusual. The part of the issue is that we have so much monitoring equipment and we can monitor it so far out and for so long.
	That helps to get people afraid.
	And they're erring on the side of caution.
	I understand that. But when you've gone through a lot of these different storms, you see two things, as I said.
	You see it being overhyped by the weather people.
	The government then jumps in and makes mandatory evacuation issues, orders, and things like that.
	And then you wind up with FEMA and other government agencies that stop you from getting back to your home.
	All these people left their homes.
	I mean, these neighborhoods are empty.
	Is it going to be looting?
	How are they going to get back?
	Because what I've seen in the past, on the coast of North Carolina and other places, after FEMA really gathered strength like a hurricane, FEMA keeps people from going back to their homes.
	So, you had the mayor, Jane Castor in Tampa.
	I can say without any dramatization whatsoever, if you choose to stay in one of those evacuation areas, you are going to die.
	Well, fortunately, she was wrong about that.
	DeSantis did quite a bit of preparation, as a matter of fact.
	He brought in utility workers and linemen in advance to restore the electricity, so we'll see how quickly that happens.
	The moral of the story of all this stuff is don't believe the weathermen.
	Especially don't believe them when they start talking about what the weather is going to be like years from now, decades from now.
	That is something I have harped on, no pun intended.
	For many, many years, these people who can't predict the weather are telling you what's going to happen decades from now.
	And now that they've been lying to us for 50 years, we have a long string of failed prophecies from these people.
	And we ought to take them outside the camp and stone them rather than listening to them.
	But anyway, the preparations that were done, and again, I'm not criticizing him for doing this.
	You have to be prudent if you didn't do it, right?
	Over 50,000 linemen, the largest staging of utility workers and linemen in advance of the storm at any time in American history.
	And this is what DeSantis was able to put together.
	So... We've signed an additional 600 ambulances currently in operation, helping in the effort.
	The National Guard is deploying 6,000 Florida National Guardsmen, as well as another 3,000 National Guardsmen from other states.
	They have 34 search and rescue aircraft, 500 tactical vehicles, including 180 high-water vehicles.
	This is the largest Florida National Guard search and rescue mobilization in the entire history of the state of Florida.
	And again, 50,000 linemen, some of them from as far away as California.
	So send them up to North Carolina and Tennessee, because I think that there's certainly going to be things that need to be done there.
	But with that number of people, they should be able to accomplish that, I think, fairly quickly.
	So Lala Harris, who wants to have all eyes on her, and that includes the eye of the hurricane.
	She's got to put herself at the very center of everything.
	And even though nobody was asking for her opinion, she called in to CNN to whine about DeSantis.
	Not even about DeSantis, but about Trump and his dangerous involvement in all of this stuff, right?
	She said she doesn't like the fact that he's criticizing FEMA. Which she thinks is just great.
	So she called into CNN. She bashed Trump for his comments about FEMA's response to the storms.
	She said this is dangerous.
	His speech is dangerous.
	His speech is unconscionable.
	Anybody who says that, folks, is dangerous.
	Unconstitutional and unconscionable.
	She said it'll mislead desperate people to the point that those desperate people would not receive the aid to which they're entitled.
	Wait a minute. You're saying because Trump criticizes FEMA that these people aren't going to get the aid?
	Why? Is FEMA going to get its feelings hurt and walk away?
	You're not going to do anything, are you?
	You're out there talking about how you're giving $157 million to Lebanon?
	And bragging about the fact that $750 to the people who are there.
	As I said, the mayor of one of those towns that was wiped off, face of the earth, his daughter applied to get that.
	They wouldn't give her the full $750.
	They gave her $300. He said, this doesn't even cover the groceries she lost in their refrigerator.
	She goes on to say, it's dangerous.
	This is dangerous. And this gamesmanship has got to stop.
	Yes, it does. She's the one who's doing it, as a matter of fact.
	Dangerous for her to criticize speech.
	Dangerous for her to try to gaslight us with lies about what's happening with FEMA. It's not Trump that we're listening to.
	We're listening to the people who are there.
	And so it'll be good when she is removed off of the scene in 30 days, I hope.
	Anyway, she said, let's let the folks who are on the ground do the work that they need to do right now in real time.
	That's right. You keep your FEMA people away from them, okay?
	That's the way that happens.
	Where was FEMA, by the way?
	Did they do any preparation for Milton like DeSantis did?
	In fact, yesterday I talked about the fact that some of these Christian missions, they drive from a long way, they knew that the storm was coming in somewhere, and they set up a camp that was north of where, quite a bit north of where they thought it was going to hit, and had everything ready, so as soon as the storm passed by, they went right in.
	Why didn't FEMA do that?
	So these Christian volunteer societies did that.
	DeSantis didn't do that.
	Or did that, but FEMA didn't do that, right?
	So the Christian societies do it.
	DeSantis does it. They prepare in advance.
	They stage this stuff nearby.
	Not FEMA. Not FEMA. When asked if Congress should return to Washington to pass more funding for disaster relief, Harris responded, FEMA has what they need right now.
	Sounds just like Biden.
	The two of them flying over the area, shutting down rescue missions, coming back.
	Well, what needs to be done about this storm?
	Storm? What storm?
	said Biden. Oh, oh, oh, that storm.
	They've got everything they need already.
	And they're very happy.
	Well, you want to talk about something, somebody that's dangerously out of touch.
	So Biden... Is criticizing Trump because it's all about gamesmanship.
	It's all about politics, and that's what they're projecting onto other people.
	And going after Marjorie Taylor Greene, because she talked about geoengineering, she responded, and this is in AOL, Doesn't even mention that clip of Brennan.
	They talk about, that she wrote on Twitter, on X, yes, they can control the weather.
	But they fail to mention that she put a clip in there of John Brennan saying that.
	That's how dishonest they are.
	Biden says that Ron DeSantis has his direct number.
	Again, undercutting Lala Harris, who is so desperate for attention.
	She's calling into people.
	Let me read this script that somebody wrote for me.
	Let me read this over the phone to you.
	I can't handle a personal appearance because that just gets a bit too dodgy.
	As a matter of fact, if we look at what happened with her on 60 Minutes, everybody is talking about this clip.
	But it seems that Prime Minister Netanyahu is not listening.
	Well, Bill... The work that we have done has resulted in a number of We're not going to stop pursuing what is necessary for the United States to be clear about where we stand on the need for this war to end.
	Oh yeah, we've got to be clear about where we stand, so let me do that again, okay?
	And the problem was that 60 Minutes put out both versions.
	They put out one of the versions in the first version.
	It's part of their promo, I think, and the second one came out as part of the actual interview, so everybody's saying, we'd like to see the transcript, see just how much you have edited this.
	Trump was wise not to go on with him.
	It was obvious that CNN was laying in wait for him, just as CNN tried to rig the debate, the vice presidential debate.
	But again, Biden says, DeSantis has got my director.
	DeSantis can handle this, right?
	DeSantis, in terms of Lala's whining about the fact that, I tried to call him and everything.
	It's like, well, go call CNN. They'll put you on.
	I'm not going to put you on. No, but he said, I didn't know that she had called.
	I'm not sure who they called.
	They didn't call me. Biden's got my number.
	She doesn't. Their characterization of it was something that they did.
	It wasn't anything that anybody in my office did in terms of saying that it was political.
	She says, my approach is about new ideas, new policies that are directed at the current moment, and also to be very honest with you, which she never is, right?
	My focus is very much on what we need to do over the next 10, 20 years to catch up to the 21st century.
	That's what she said on September the 13th.
	And then this week when she went on The View, they said, what would you have done differently than Biden did the past four years?
	Well, nothing comes to mind.
	I don't know what to say.
	See, Lala is not just a liar.
	She's a stupid liar.
	That's the best kind, because it's pretty obvious what they're doing.
	So, again, she goes on with The View.
	And tries to blame Trump for what is happening with FEMA. And she gets hammered by everybody, except the people in The View.
	She said, Trump puts himself before the needs of others.
	I feel that he, fear that he really lacks empathy.
	Duh. Whoever said that Trump's got empathy for anybody?
	That's the most narcissistic politician you've ever seen in your life.
	Of course he doesn't have empathy.
	That is beside the point.
	It's your FEMA. That you're out there bragging about.
	You're bragging about sending $157 million to Lebanon while you give $750 to the people in the area that's hit.
	So, one person said, in today's dose of unrivaled stupidity, Lala blames Trump for the FEMA failure with Hurricane Helene.
	She directed the FEMA funds to pay for the illegals.
	That's Citizen Free Press.
	Another person comments and says, why is Lala blaming Trump for FEMA's response to the hurricane?
	Trump left office three and a half years ago.
	She's on the view instead of helping people who are impacted by this.
	And if I was going to blame Trump for something to do with FEMA, I would blame him for not getting rid of it.
	FEMA is unconstitutional.
	We never had FEMA until 1978.
	We don't need FEMA. I was 23 years old before FEMA ever existed.
	Went through a lot of hurricanes.
	We happened to manage it without having somebody block us out of our homes.
	And people who want to stay behind and ride out the storm only got much worse because of FEMA high-handed efforts.
	So she did the same thing.
	She went on with Colbert. Have you no empathy, man, she said, for the suffering of other people?
	How arrogant.
	How she is projecting this.
	You want to talk about empathy?
	So they open up and have a beer there on Stephen Colbert's program.
	You know, I guess they could maybe have her dress up like a hypodermic needle.
	No, that was men with hairy legs that they did that.
	After they did the cartoon stuff.
	What a pathetic...
	Cheerleader this guy is.
	Of everything evil, I can't stand Stephen Colbert.
	There are so many things that are funny about the Vax, as in weird and strange and scary, right?
	But that's not funny.
	Ham-fisted propaganda that gets people injured and killed is not funny, Colbert.
	Let's also not forget that while Americans are begging for help, she appeared on a sex podcast and then goes and raises money in Hollywood, of course.
	But again, it is appropriate for her to do that.
	She is, after all, a sex worker.
	It shows that even a prostitute can become president in the United States.
	And of course, you know, she is essentially the combination of two of the world's oldest professions, politicians and prostitutes.
	And being a prostitute first actually helps you a great deal with your politician profession.
	It's almost a kind of training, isn't it?
	Meanwhile, we got hotels in Florida and Georgia starting to raise their price yesterday from $95 to $700 a night.
	Isn't that amazing? And some of these were in Gainesville.
	I looked at this and it's like, Gainesville's only 130 miles north of Tampa.
	If they're saying it's coming in in Tampa, I mean, they missed the landing spot by 70 miles.
	So, I don't know what's going on.
	They have, in this particular article from Daily Mail, they took screenshots of a lot of these different hotels.
	Hampton Inn and Suites in Brunswick, Georgia, offered a room Wednesday night for...
	$617. I'm sorry.
	It's small print, and I almost thought that was a question mark.
	But it's questionable to charge those kind of prices.
	I don't know. I just...
	That's what you see happening, and they need to pass that around so people remember that hotel there.
	Lala, meanwhile, raised $55 million in California.
	Well, North Carolinians lost everything.
	And she goes to the people in Hollywood, all of her friends.
	It was, the entrance fee was, said nothing, says out of touch, like a ritzy gala in San Francisco, where the elites come in for an entrance fee of $926,600.
	This is restoration news.
	And then, in addition to the nearly a million dollars entrance fee to see her, if you want a picture with her, $100,000 a pop.
	Well, I don't know.
	You know, you talk about price gouging.
	It couldn't happen to a better way.
	Look, I'd rather pay $1,000 to stay in a Motel 6 than $100,000 for a picture of Lala, with Lala.
	Well, she said as she was there, sounding very much like Dorothian, the Wizard of Oz, who's just had a near miss with a tornado, right?
	It's good to be home.
	It's good to be home, as she clicked her heels in her ruby slippers.
	She doesn't have ruby slippers, but she is bedecked with jewels everywhere else.
	Every time she goes around, she's got expensive jewelry.
	At the same time that Harris was collecting checks in San Francisco, Asheville was completely underwater with debris, fallen trees, cutting off countless North Carolina towns from help.
	Where is the empathy?
	Yeah, you're in charge here.
	Oh, so you're going to go fundraise.
	At least 64 deaths.
	The current toll is now over 200.
	Untold millions without power or cell service.
	Yeah, empathy.
	She goes fundraising.
	As an elderly Asheville couple and their seven-year-old grandson swept off a collapsing roof by the currents leaving behind his mother, the family's sole survivor, she said, my grief is unfathomable.
	Georgia Governor Brian Kemp described the carnage in western Georgia as looking like a bomb went off.
	But Lala was too busy whisking off to sunny L.A. and a bevy of Hollywood actors awaiting her there to comment.
	Oh, by the way, she had a lunchtime special.
	I guess it's like the early bird special.
	If you wanted to go for lunch, it wasn't $926,600.
	You could get in for a mere $250,000.
	I guess that's where the elderly...
	Hollywood celebrities go to that one, the early bird special.
	At the same time, Helene's torrential downpour was just beginning to subside.
	By that time, the picturesque towns of Chimney Rock and Lake Lure, 35 miles from Asheville, had ceased to exist.
	But Harris was doing public photo ops for $100,000 apiece.
	She's literally put illegal aliens above Americans, steering over a billion dollars away from FEMA emergency service to migrants illegally crossing our wide open borders, says Restoration News.
	And of course, North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper is no better.
	Another Democrat. He's done very little to help people.
	Actually, DeSantis had already sent up Florida National Guard to help people.
	And then where is Hollywood?
	The people who are giving $55 million to Lala getting their pictures taken with her and so forth.
	Well, Hollywood is not anywhere to be found.
	Totally AWOL on Hurricane Helene.
	And in this article from HollywoodN2.com, they contrast this with what happened in the wake of Katrina.
	Katrina had massive casualties, about 1,400 people who died, but they heavily politicized that.
	That's his idea.
	He says, I think that was heavily politicized.
	If these people really cared, don't you think they'd contribute a little?
	But they're not contributing anything.
	And you look at what happened in the wake of Katrina in New Orleans.
	Hollywood took less than a week to officially respond to that crisis in 2005.
	Scores of musicians and Hollywood celebrities, according to NPR,
	rallied to raise funds for those impacted by the natural disaster.
	You had a concert for hurricane relief.
	Can be best remembered for Kanye West's race-based attack on George W. Bush.
	Hollywood's charitable efforts extended to the corporate level as well, in addition to the multiple telethons and fundraising events.
	Media companies like Disney, DreamWorks, GE, parent company of NBCUniversal, NewsCore, Fox News, Revolution Studios, Sony, Time Warner, Viacom, All of them were matching contributions to charitable organizations.
	So where is Hollywood this time?
	When they point out you've got country music superstars Luke Combs and Eric Church have announced they're going to have a benefit concert for people who are victims of Hurricane Helene.
	Dolly Parton, as I mentioned before, had contributed a million dollars of her own money and a million dollars from her corporations.
	And Morgan Whalen wrote very large checks.
	I don't know the amount that he wrote.
	They said, compare that to all the musicians who were responding to Hurricane Katrina.
	You had Green Day, Beastie Boys, Pearl Jam, Harry Connick Jr., Wynton Marsalis, Tim McGraw, Faith Hill, Bono, Kelly Clarkson, Neil Young, The Foo Fighters, Mariah Kelly, Paul Simon, Garth Brooks, Diddy, Jay-Z, Patti LaBelle, and on and on.
	That's just a partial list, and I didn't even read the full partial list that they have.
	Didn't read the full partial list.
	some of the big-name actors Who came out to help people after Hurricane Katrina?
	Sean Penn Brad Pitt John Travolta Morgan Freeman Jamie Fox Oprah Winfrey
	Matthew McConaughey Richard Gere Mike Myers Claire Danes Leonardo DiCaprio Chris Rock again
	That's just a partial list why the mass of disparity between that?
	catastrophe in this one well
	Hollywood into said First of all corporate media is trying to downplay the
	hurricanes aftermath because they don't want to embarrass Biden and Lala
	you But they wanted to play it up to come after Bush for political purposes, as we would see for the speeches that they would make.
	And then the other reason is that it's even more sinister.
	Any outsized hurricane relief would draw attention to the feckless response from FEMA and the Biden administration.
	Mayorka said FEMA is out of money, even though they continue to feed and house illegal aliens.
	Biden's tone-deaf response.
	Oh yeah, they're very happy.
	What storm? Imagine if Bush had said something like that.
	And yet, the mainstream media doesn't even talk about it.
	Well, Disney contributed a lot of money.
	People were suspecting that Disney might face a $200 million hit.
	As I said, it seems to have diminished significantly by the time it hit shore and rapidly diminished after that.
	And so they dodged that one.
	They were talking about how it might face a $200 million hit, but that did not happen.
	And... Then there was also projections yesterday, before it was hitting, said Milton could trigger a $175 billion worst-case damage scenario.
	Always, everything was the worst, the worst, the worst case, and maybe even over the top of the worst case.
	And that's what I say. The media and the politicians and the weathermen, they always exaggerate, and it makes it More dangerous, especially when you have situations, and I think, you know, the situation with Helene, as well as with Hurricane Fran, when we were in North Carolina, you know, having watched the media and the weathermen cry wolf for so long, I looked at this and was like, we're so far inland, that's not going to be anything.
	And yet because we had about as much rain as the worst case scenario on the coast of Florida got out of Milton, we had about that much rain with Fran, even though we were all the way inland around the Raleigh area, and it caused trees to come down all over the place, even though there wasn't that much rain.
	So you never know what it's going to be, and we still don't have any information about...
	What is going on with that?
	And we hope, again, we've kept our prayers.
	Grammy for God, hope that she made it through this.
	She may not have any power, right?
	You've not seen any comments from her.
	Okay. She may not have any power, but pray for her and the other people in the way of this hurricane.
	And we can be glad that these scenarios look like they're not going to be a situation.
	Nevertheless, as they're talking about all of this money, You have an article from Vox saying just how doomed is home insurance?
	He says it's not just the people before this happens that say we're going to have $170 billion worth of damage or something like that.
	But the insurance industry will use everything to raise rates just like they do with cars.
	They're always looking for some excuse to raise rates.
	And so this is an article from Vox talking about the poor insurance company and how they just, you know, I'm sure they don't want to raise rates at all, but they just have to.
	It's going to be harder than ever to insure your home.
	Another reason to get you out of your home, just like car insurance is a reason to get you out of your car.
	And there's a partnership between the government and the insurance companies, especially when they're required.
	And of course, I don't think that they have insurance requirements for your home, but if you've got a mortgage, as most people do, it's going to be required by your bank.
	So whenever you've got something that is a requirement like that, whether it's a vaccine or whether it is insurance, whether or not you want it or whether or not it's any good, price is going to skyrocket.
	Because they're going to use any excuse to raise the rates.
	Their greed is just like the pharmaceutical companies.
	It has no bounds.
	And, you know, we're not looking, when we're looking at this, we're not looking at insurance rates taking off because of climate change.
	We're not looking at it taking off because of hyperinflation.
	This is hypergreed they're really talking about.
	Florida homeowners already pay the highest rates on average, more than $10,000 per year, well above the national average of about $2,400 per year.
	U.S. home insurance rates jumped 11.3% on average over the entire United States.
	Do you think these insurance companies are on the verge of going out of business?
	Of course not. I mean, they took a big hit after the Trump shots killing people.
	That's like a once-in-200-year event.
	I mean, we're more than three standard deviations away from me, and what's going on with this?
	It must be, we know that nobody is dying if they get the vaccine.
	And even though these deaths, said the guy with the insurance company in Indiana, One America, he said, even though we're being told that these excess deaths are not COVID, There are all kinds of other things, like blood clots and heart attacks and stuff like that.
	We know that it's COVID. Even though they're saying it's not COVID, we know that it's COVID. And the other thing that we know is that nobody dies if they get the vaccine.
	Therefore, I say, and this is what the guy actually said.
	It's unbelievable. Therefore, we know that the people who are dying are dying of COVID, and there are unvaccinated people who are dying of COVID. So we need to push people to get vaccinated.
	Make that a requirement for insurance or something.
	Some Floridians have seen their rates hike as much as 400% over the past five years.
	So do you think this is hyper greed?
	I do. I do.
	And of course they're going to cover for them and they're going, if they say anything about it in their article, what they do is they talk about, well, it's just climate change.
	Just one of the effects. See how climate change is going to affect you?
	We've got a lot of comments here.
	I want to read these comments. LTE Oracle of Truth says, I'm in the St.
	Augustine area, and DeSantis was in front of this storm all week.
	He's done an outstanding job.
	The main problem was all the gas stations ran out of gas during the evacuation.
	Yeah, I mean, nobody has done this kind of forward staging.
	It wasn't done by the federal government.
	It wasn't done by FEMA. I mean, you can trust the fact that he's got 50,000 people out there just to work on power, 600 ambulances and all the rest of this stuff.
	When a week after what happened in Asheville and surrounding areas, FEMA hadn't done anything.
	Nothing. A week later, he was doing all this stuff a week before.
	The progress retort.
	Thank you very much for the tip.
	I sent you an email this morning and coded in Dennis Kucinich's campaign manager to set up an interview.
	Dennis has assisted with my local endeavors and his congressional campaign.
	Can you scroll that up Karen? His congressional campaign is centered around peace.
	Yeah, I'd be interested to talk to him.
	And I know that he worked significantly with Gerald Salenti with that.
	And he's worked in the past with Ron Paul.
	So I'll take a look at that.
	Thank you. Yona Anawodi says FEMA is an extortion racket.
	All of government is. All of government is extortion and protection.
	And if you don't want their protection, they're like organized crime.
	No, no, you got to be protected from me, right?
	You want to make sure your legs...
	I don't want you to break your leg, so you better pay me.
	It's an extortion racket for preferred vendors, and it fights to prevent any aid or assistance from unpreferred vendors.
	That's what we've seen as well in the past.
	Yeah, it is... That's a big part of why they shut this stuff down.
	But, of course, you also have people who are caught up in this bureaucratic mindset of, I'm in charge here, right?
	Like the little deputy sheriff.
	And so there's that aspect of it, which makes it even worse.
	But it's also corruption and the preferred vendors.
	And we've had people say, no, you're not allowed to bring this stuff in.
	You don't have my permission.
	You don't have my permission.
	You're not on our preferred vendors list.
	It's been that way for years. Corruption is going worse with each storm.
	Absolutely true.
	And shame on Trump for not doing anything to shut it down.
	Or any of these previous presidents.
	You know, Reagan could have shut it down and should have shut it down.
	All of the assistance that you're going to get from government, all of this could be handled with just block grants of money.
	Right? Can you scroll that down?
	Let's see. M Sellers, did y'all see where they're allowing some through traffic in the Smoky Mountains National Park?
	But there's now checkpoints, and the big rig trucks must travel at night.
	I did not see that. Yeah, that's one of the interesting things about the Smoky Mountains National Park.
	And it is visited by more people than, it's about four times, a little bit more than four times the number of people that visit the second and subsequent top ten.
	So it's because of its close proximity to a large part of the population.
	But it's also one of the earliest parks.
	And so there's a public road that runs through it.
	That's why they can't charge people for coming into it.
	So it has always been free until the Biden administration the last year or so put some guy in that decided that he's going to block off where people park.
	And you're going to have to have pay and get a ticket in order to, you know, a little thing in order to go in there and stop.
	But they can't stop you because it's a public road from going through.
	Now, if we had a decent Republican governor, which we don't, he would have stopped that because it was already an agreement that they would never charge to come in.
	So they're kind of getting around the edges of this stuff.
	But, yeah, they have people who can drive through there.
	Well, we're gonna take a quick break and we will be right back
	Music playing...
	Top, top, top, tempo. Top, top, top, tempo. Top, top, tempo.
	You're listening to the David Knight Show.
	I'm David Knight.
	You're listening to the David Knight Show.
	I'm David Knight.
	You're listening to the David Knight Show.
	I'm David Knight.
	you you
	Let's take a look at some news.
	We have a trial that is going on now where the ATF is trying to extend its jurisdiction.
	Like every other bureaucracy, they metastasize like a cancer.
	Trump gave them a major play for power when he said, yeah, we're going to do this stuff by executive order.
	We're going to do it by the bureaucracy that is 100% under the presidency.
	Yeah, they make it like it's some mysterious thing.
	We are going to drain the swamp.
	Well, the swamp is underneath the White House.
	All of it. But yeah, let's pull that up again.
	So we now have them as they're talking about gun stuff.
	You actually had in testimony, the government lawyer said that, government said that cap guns shoot birdshot.
	Yeah, they actually said that.
	Here's what they said. Justice Alito is talking, well, you undergo a conversion, but before it's converted, it must be a weapon, right?
	And then Preleger says, well, that's right.
	We certainly don't dispute that it has to be an instrument of combat designed and intended to be used in this way.
	And Congress made it clear in statutory history the reason it was there, that term, is because objects out there, toys and tools that have been well-known, non-weapon use, but actually do expel projectiles through the action of an explosive.
	A cap gun is an example of this.
	That's right. Did you know that?
	Did you know that cap guns...
	This person has obviously never had a cap gun.
	What a deprived person...
	Childhood this person has had.
	Never had a cap gun. No cap guns don't expel anything.
	I had so many...
	Cap guns were really big when I was a kid.
	Had so many of those things. There are no projectiles in a cap gun.
	It's a roll of paper, and as you're pulling the trigger, it pulls that roll around, and it's got a little dot of, a very, very small dot of gunpowder.
	You know, when the hammer hits it, it explodes and makes this really neat smell.
	The kids are like, that's really the smell of gunpowder.
	It's great. We've also got an Afghan man arrested by the FBI allegedly planning to attack crowds on Election Day.
	Now, what most of them don't tell you...
	Is that he's not just an Afghan man, he's also a CIA man.
	He worked for the CIA in Afghanistan.
	So, I don't know what's going on.
	I mean, is this one of the situations where the FBI goes out and runs a patsy, sets him up?
	Or is this real and run by the CIA? Either one of these things.
	Could be true. Nasir Ahmad Tahiti of Oklahoma City told investigators after his arrest October 7th that he had planned his attack to coincide with Election Day next month and that he and his co-conspirator expected to die as martyrs according to charging documents.
	He arrived in the U.S. September 2021 and taken steps in recent weeks to advance his attack plans, including by ordering AK-47 rifles, liquidating his family's assets, and buying one-way tickets for his wife and child to travel home to Afghanistan.
	So he might actually be like a CIA plant instead of a patsy by the FBI. Officials say that he also consumed Islamic State propaganda.
	That's probably how they identified him.
	Contributed to a charity that functions as a front for a militant group and communicated with one person who the FBI determined from a prior investigation was involved in recruitment.
	And so he and this unnamed co-conspirator.
	That's kind of interesting and suspicious, isn't it?
	Again, these things are never what they seem.
	When you have the FBI and the CIA involved, who knows what's true here?
	This is like trying to figure out what's going on in a war in the Middle East.
	I mean, nobody's going to tell you the truth about anything.
	After the two advertised the sale of personal property on Facebook, the FBI enlisted an informant last month to respond to the offer and to strike up a relationship.
	It was already on their radar, according to them.
	Because of what he read online and who he's associated with, right?
	Geospatial intelligence and the social media and the internet, that's what it was always designed for, by the way.
	The informant later invited them to a gun range where they ordered weapons from an undercover FBI official who was posing as a business partner of the informant.
	After he was arrested...
	He told investigators that he had planned the attack for Election Day and would target a large gathering of people.
	So, you know, who knows?
	But this is what I think is interesting.
	He worked as a CIA guard in Afghanistan.
	And two sources with knowledge of the matter told this to NBC News.
	This is mainstream media.
	This is not a conservative organization.
	When asked to comment, when NBC asked the CIA to comment, they declined to comment.
	He entered the country in September 2021, about a month after the U.S. military completed its chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan after 20 years of being there.
	So he was working with the CIA, and he comes here and he does this.
	Well, part of what is happening in the aftermath of the hurricanes...
	And of course, this has to do with both hurricanes.
	One in Helene, it shut down Baxter International in North Carolina, the largest IV fluid manufacturer in the country.
	And then adding to that, Braun Medical, the country's second largest maker of IV fluids, announced Tuesday that it would temporarily close two of its facilities in Daytona Beach, Florida.
	Those are going to be opening up right away, I'm sure.
	Daytona Beach was quite a bit north of where the hurricane went.
	But nevertheless, I thought this was interesting because of the concentration of infrastructures.
	One of the problems when you've got everything controlled by just a handful of corporations...
	Part of the consolidation of everything leads to this, kind of what we're seeing around the mines that are in North Carolina as well.
	Now, that is there because of the geographical location of these resources.
	But you have other things like that that have happened.
	I remember years ago, and I mentioned this last week when I was talking about lithium mines, how there were floods in Thailand, and all of a sudden the supply of hard disk drives dried up, got very expensive, and that lasted for a few months because most of the world's supply of hard disk drives was made in this one little area of Thailand.
	Who knew? And then when that flooded, that happened.
	So this is, again, another example of how vulnerable our infrastructure is.
	So many things that we take for granted.
	We don't realize just how consolidated the infrastructure is.
	When we talk about infrastructure, we don't realize how dirty it is in many cases as well.
	This is a company called Bruce Pack.
	I've never heard of before. Big meat producer.
	They've now recalled over 9 million pounds of ready to eat meat and poultry because of listeria being found.
	These products were shipped to other establishments and distributors nationwide, then distributed to restaurants and to institutions.
	I guess they don't sell retail.
	Maybe they sell wholesale.
	So 9 million pounds of meat recalled due to listeria contamination.
	And this is not Boar's Head. That's a separate one.
	So it was routine testing, found listeria there.
	And so far, there have been no cases of anybody sick.
	This was ready to eat chicken, was the source of the contamination.
	But we did have, as we have seen with cases of listeria, it can take a while for that to show up.
	Boar's Head, by the way, is facing multiple lawsuits related to death and illness.
	They said it can take up to, it can take one to four weeks for listeria to show up, but it can sometimes present itself in the same day.
	And so Boar's Head is facing big, big lawsuits.
	I don't know if they're going to make it out of this or not, because they've had people who have died from that listeria.
	And we have officials warning consumers to throw out millions of eggs as a recall has been upgraded.
	This is a farm known as Milo's Poultry Farms.
	They issued a recall. They're out of Wisconsin.
	They said there was a salmonella outbreak.
	Again, there have been no deaths.
	65 people fell ill.
	24 were hospitalized with salmonella poisoning.
	The eggs were sold to stores and restaurants in Wisconsin, Illinois, Michigan, over the summer.
	But the cost of eggs, as I said, has increased 147%.
	Since Biden took office, he's done a great job getting his eggs.
	We got eggs coming out.
	We just took to people who were collecting supplies for relief and everything.
	We took 84 eggs down.
	We still got all over the place.
	But anyway, the cost of eggs have gone up 147 percent.
	And a large part of that, which I don't see in this article from Breitbart, Is all of the bird flu nonsense that is happening.
	And one bird flew over the cuckoo's nest there in Washington, D.C. as they're shutting everything down unnecessarily.
	Well, one person who doesn't have to worry about the skyrocketing cost of eggs is Michael Jordan.
	That's right. Take a look at Air Jordan and what it looks like now.
	He's got a private jet.
	This thing is very impressive and very expensive.
	He just took delivery of a brand new 2024 Gulfstream.
	This is a G, for those of you who are out there shopping for one.
	This is a G650ER. 22 seats.
	$7,300 per hour to fly.
	It'll cost about a million per year in fixed expenses.
	It requires a flight attendant.
	Flying 400 hours per year, the annual budget of $3.9 million before debt service.
	That's Michael Jordan there.
	And as I look at this, it makes me wonder...
	If his unpleasant experience flying with Karen and I had anything to do with this.
	I think I've told this story before.
	Maybe not. When I was looking to move back to the East Coast, I had some job interviews, and they flew me in.
	First, the company I was interviewing with in Florida flew me in, and then Data General flew me up to Research Triangle Park to do a job.
	So we went through Atlanta.
	And what had happened was the ACC tournament had happened, and everybody, that was the year that NC State and Jim Valvanna won the tournament.
	They were the underdog, the Cinderella tournament.
	Everybody was so excited about that.
	They were there in Raleigh.
	But, of course, Research Triangle Park, you've got Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill.
	And in those three cities, you've got NC State, Duke, and UNC Chapel Hill that...
	That he played for. Well, they had been picked to win because they had Michael Jordan and they unexpectedly lost.
	And so they had to book in the last minute and fly commercial, of all things.
	And so we were on that plane and they came in and they asked everybody to move if you had an aisle seat.
	And so Karen and I got split up.
	And these guys came in.
	I can understand why they get their own private jets if they can afford them because their legs were all over the place.
	I mean, they had to sit on the aisle and have these long legs and they're sticking out of it.
	It was really comical.
	And I got moved back and the guy that I was sitting with says, well, it's Michael Jordan.
	I said, who's he? I had no idea who he was.
	And, you know, this is, I didn't follow sports.
	I didn't follow college basketball.
	He was still in college. And he says, you don't know who Michael Jordan is?
	Because this guy is going to be unbelievably rich.
	And I said, well, that's nice, you know.
	I didn't care. And so Karen is seated in a different place and the lady comes by with some drinks and Karen, she gave Karen something and said, no, I want that other thing.
	So the stewardess gets kind of flustered and is going back and forth and trips over some of the legs that are out in the aisle and spills, what was it, was it coffee?
	No. Coke.
	Spills Coke all over Michael Jordan.
	All over his back, okay?
	And, I mean, these guys were expecting to win the tournament.
	They didn't win the tournament.
	They got packed into this plane and are flying in cramped, not commercial even, well, it was a commercial flight, but, I mean, they're back in...
	Not even in first class or anything.
	I don't even know if the plane had first class.
	You would expect that he might blow up.
	Especially because so many of these sports guys are prima donnas.
	And he was so incredibly nice and understanding about it.
	That was what amazed me.
	That was what impressed me. I didn't care about the basketball stuff.
	I thought, well, that's a lot of character there.
	Karen eventually wound up teaching management organizational stuff at 4 Corporation, and his brother took one of her classes, and she said he was just the nicest guy as well.
	But that's our...
	Michael Jordan's story.
	And I guess after that experience, he's willing to buy this incredibly expensive jet just to avoid that again.
	And then we have this.
	We have a museum worker mistakes a beer can artwork for garbage and tosses it in the trash.
	Roger Scruton would not be surprised.
	Roger Scruton has talked for so long, well, he's dead now, but he did talk a great deal about the loss of beauty in art and architecture.
	Now we have art that is literally indistinguishable from trash.
	The people in the museum say, well, we don't blame the person who's cleaning up.
	It does look like trash.
	But who knows how much this stuff costs.
	Hand-painted cans created by a French artist in 1988.
	Picked up as garbage and tossed into the can.
	French artist Alexandre LaVey, a piece titled, All the Good Times We Spent Together.
	It's displayed in the museum showing what appears to be nothing more than two empty beer cans to the naked eye.
	You know, just like Lala and Colbert left them or something, you know, after her interview.
	So, yeah, you have to be a very sophisticated, elite aficionado to really discern the fact that this is not just beer cans, but it's really fine art.
	For those, the rest of us...
	It just looks like a can of duff beer, doesn't it?
	So, can you spot the elite art involved in all this?
	The person, as a matter of fact, at the museum said, well, in a way, it's actually a testament.
	To the effectiveness of his art.
	Then it would be mistaken for trash.
	Speaking of trash, and having trash opposing as some kind of artwork, the Amazon's version of the Lord of the Rings series, which Travis...
	Travis really wanted to go. I said, well, you know, the thing debuted a year ago.
	I said, yeah, but they've just done another season of it.
	Let's go back and watch the first one.
	And, you know, we'd seen the reviews about how woke it was, but it was just unbelievably bad.
	Now, one of the people who is putting this show together for Amazon says that this take on the Lord of the Rings is really about climate change.
	Amazon's Lord of the Rings, the Rings of Power streaming on their site is now claiming, the showrunner is, that the Tolkien classic is about climate change.
	McCay one of the rings of power showrunners compared the destruction of
	the dwarf city of Khazad-dum to climate change the producers have chosen to make
	the fall of the dwarf kingdom and Khazad-dum also known as Moria a more
	protracted event the fight over the subterranean city will stretch from
	season 2 which has just ended and to season 3 and Tolkien's original works the
	fall of the city is not described as having fallen over a long stretch of
	It is just said to have fallen to the monstrous dragon known as the Balrog, whose fiery wrath caused the dwarves to flee their great city.
	But the guy said this.
	He said, it's a thing where, you know, how do societies fall?
	Usually it's gradually and then all at once.
	Where do you get that idea from?
	Yeah, that was Ernest Hemingway.
	He said, you know, in his novel, I think it was Sunil also says, it's a really rich guy who lost everything.
	He said, how did somebody have that kind of money like you had?
	How did they go broke? And he says, well, gradually, then suddenly.
	And we've talked about that a great deal.
	And he is right. That's what happens to civilizations and empires and things like that.
	It really does. But that's not what happened in the book.
	Just another example of how they want to reinterpret it.
	And then, of course, when he says that the gradually, suddenly thing, or he says all at once, he says, if you want to use climate change as a metaphor, climate change is not an event.
	Climate change is a process that ebbs and flows.
	It's always headed in a dark direction.
	No, it's just lies that come and go that have never been, none of it has ever been proven.
	He said, I think a kingdom as great and as powerful as Khazad-dum does not fall in a moment.
	But maybe this guy's career will.
	It should, anyway.
	The fall is a product of many disasters over time, just like his career.
	And so, yeah, it is.
	They actually have a quote here from Tolkien.
	We used to always, and that's one of the reasons I think Travis wanted to go back and look at it.
	I used to always get the family together, and we would read The Lord of the Rings every fall.
	Tolkien hated the idea that his book was about metaphor, but it's filled with Christian metaphor.
	I mean, it just comes out of him.
	And it may not have been conscious, but it's unconsciously all over the place.
	Perhaps more effective than C.S. Lewis, who did it intentionally.
	Tolkien said, I didn't do any of that stuff as an allegory or metaphor or anything.
	I don't like that.
	I didn't do it. Well, you can see it all over the place.
	These people are consciously putting stuff in to push their religion, which is climate change.
	He unconsciously put it in with his Christianity.
	So... As they point out, it was nothing like the fall of a society.
	It had absolutely no parallels to climate change.
	As they quote from The Lord of the Rings, Thus they roused from sleep a thing of terror that flying from thing Gordom had lain hidden in the foundations of the earth since the coming of the host of the West, a Balrog of Morgoth.
	Duran was slain by it, and the year after that, Nain I, his son.
	And then the glory of Moria passed, and its people were destroyed or fled far away.
	Not climate change.
	These people who do the climate change, they just can't help lying to us, can they?
	The entire production has been replete with virtue signaling about diversity and race issues, as we pointed out.
	And by the end of season one, the billion dollar production had lost 63% of its audience.
	Is that all? They lost Travis and me about 15 minutes into the first episode.
	I can't believe that they had 34% of the people still sticking around at the end of the first season.
	And it's gone down a sharp drop-off after season two as well.
	Well, you know, one of my big criticisms when we talked about it was just how bad the music was.
	It was all a very bad imitation of the Lord of the Rings movies.
	And I said, you know, one of the things that really bothered me about it was Howard Shore had a great soundtrack.
	And there are recognizable, many recognizable leitmotifs in the music, themes.
	They, you know, were melodically interesting themes, and they were attached to different places or characters and things like that.
	And this person didn't do anything like that at all.
	It's just kind of fake, nondescript sounds that are there.
	They're kind of orchestral and kind of, you know, they'll have choruses that are singing or something like
	that.
	You know, film music is becoming like those beer cans in the museum.
	And a bad imitation, something that is ugly.
	This was sent to me by DocuGarden, as a matter of fact.
	And this is from a guy who does a lot of videos about music on YouTube.
	He's got a big following. I don't even know how to pronounce his name.
	I don't know if it's Rick Beto or Beato or whatever, how he pronounces his name.
	But he does have interesting videos.
	I've seen them from time to time.
	And this was sent to me.
	He said, you know what?
	I was talking to my young daughter and said, what is the...
	I'm thinking about that. Who is the most famous musician of all time?
	See if you can figure it out. You know, I've been thinking about some of the videos I've made recently where I'm comparing, you know, let's say the Taylor Swift versus the Beatles based on that New York Times article or contemporary music versus music of the past.
	And I thought, you know...
	All this stuff of trying to compare who's bigger, is Taylor Swift bigger than the Beatles, and comparing music from 60 years ago to music today is really kind of ridiculous.
	There's a person whose music is far better known than anyone from the Beatles or the Rolling Stones or Led Zeppelin or Jimi Hendrix to Taylor Swift to Beyonce to The Weeknd to Drake to Kendrick Lamar put together.
	You're probably thinking, what?
	No, there's someone whose music is known in every culture in the world, in the United States, all through South America, all through Asia, all through Europe.
	This person's music is known by more human beings than any musician's music ever in the history of human beings.
	And you're like, come on, Rick, give me a break.
	So I'm out walking with my daughter Layla yesterday, my 11-year-old, and I said, listen to this.
	So as soon as I started playing that, Layla's like John Williams.
	Who doesn't know John Williams?
	Everyone knows John Williams.
	Who doesn't know Star Wars?
	I know people that have never seen a Star Wars movie.
	None of them. And know that theme.
	That theme is ubiquitous.
	It is everywhere. And it's been everywhere since 1977.
	Just that theme.
	If you just think about this...
	🎵 Everyone knows that theme.
	Yeah, it is interesting, isn't it?
	Yeah, he has great themes, amazing orchestration.
	He really is a musician, unlike the MTV generation, where they get somebody who's attractive and have them dance while they've got auto-tuned stuff in the back.
	That's not even music, folks.
	John Williams is going to go down as one of the greatest composers of all time, no doubt about it.
	Back in college, even before he did the bulk of his work, there was a guy that I knew that was in a music class, and he was saying that at that point in time.
	He said, who is the best 20th century composer of serious music?
	He says, John Williams, without a doubt, when you look at it.
	It's not just how popular he's been because of what he did for the movies.
	And of course, we're not going to see movies that are going to be as popular as they were because you don't have that kind of artistry anymore in the soundtracks.
	I always go back and look at the tribute that Steven Spielberg paid to him about E.T., which I was not fond at all of that movie, but I did like the soundtrack.
	And so he shows the picture of E.T. flying on the bicycle, and he shows it silent.
	And then he plays it again with the music of John Williams, and it was like, whoa!
	That just made the whole thing come alive.
	You look at the careers of Steven Spielberg, and people like George Lucas were made by John Williams.
	So we're going to take a quick break.
	Here's a little bit more John Williams.
	I'm going to do a little bit of a more advanced version of this.
	Defending the American Dream.
	You're listening to The David Knight Show.
	Well, and thanks to DocuGarden, Subscribestar subscriber, who passed that clip along about John Williams.
	Appreciate that. And thank you for supporting us on Subscribestar as well.
	Folks, if you'd like to know how you can help us, that is a very important part, base of our support.
	Subscribestar helps us to know kind of where our budget is.
	And so we really do appreciate people who have supported us.
	And if you want to know how you can support this show, we don't put it behind a firewall.
	But we do have, if you go to thedavidknightshow.com, you can see the links to various places where you can support us on Zelle, on Cash App, and Subscribestar, and other places.
	So we really do appreciate your support.
	Let's talk a little bit about masks.
	This whole masquerade and all the masketeers that are out there.
	A new study has found that we have a tremendous amount of plastic in our body, especially in our brain.
	It is focused in the frontal lobe of our brain.
	And they found a great deal of it in nasal passages as well.
	I wonder what it could be.
	What have people been putting over their noses lately?
	The gold report here.
	Yeah, it's exactly what is happening.
	Microplastics are tiny shards of plastic anywhere from around five millimeters wide to just one nanometer wide.
	More specifically, they've been found in the brain and the frontal cortex, the part of the brain thought to be responsible for higher human functions, such as abstract thinking, creativity, decision-making.
	Which tells us folks that the mask wearers are never going to figure this out.
	It's too late. It's too late.
	That's why I guess you still see some of the people still wearing these things.
	Professor Matthew Kampen...
	Author of the study told media that the concentrations of plastics that he and his team discovered were around 4,800 micrograms per gram, meaning that they constitute about a half a percent of the brain.
	He noted that over the past eight years, the amounts of plastics researchers have been finding have increased quite considerably.
	Now, here's the interesting thing.
	They do this study, and they go back, they said, well, we compared it to brain samples from 2016.
	I wonder why they went back to 2016.
	Why not back to 2020 or something, right?
	Why not do some intermediate stuff?
	Well, they only have, their data point is 2016 and today.
	And I guess maybe when they sent Igor in to get the other brains, he dropped them or something.
	I don't know. I'll be normal here.
	Compared to autopsy brain samples from 2016, that's about 50% higher.
	So, they're not doing this every year.
	Again, we got a data point in 2016, another one in 2024.
	They also observed that the most common type of plastic found was polyethylene, widely used in the packaging of all kinds, both hard plastic, soft ones, such as those used in bags.
	A few months passed, and then another study came out with a possible answer to the question of how plastics manage to enter the brain via the nose.
	Who knew? The nose!
	New research from the University of Sao Paulo and the University of Berlin.
	They say the discovery of microplastics both in the nose and the olfactory bulb located at the base of the brain.
	Researchers found that the most common plastic in the nasal passages was polypropylene.
	Like polyethylene, it's used for packaging, food storage, both hard and soft plastics.
	And so one of the professors who did the study...
	Said, well, I think this is because people are breathing while indoors.
	You shouldn't do that, by the way.
	You know, you should only breathe when you're outdoors.
	But what do we do when they lock us indoors and tell us to put on a mask?
	How many times did Karen and I drive past a couple that were in a car with the windows rolled up, husband and wife, and they both got masks on?
	And we were riding in a convertible with no mask on.
	Breathing within indoor environments could be a major source of plastic pollution in the brain.
	No, that's not what changed in eight years.
	Has there something happened in our environment, you know, that has changed everything so that you would now all of a sudden start accumulating plastic in your brain and your nose and your olfactory bulb?
	No. The research team also noted that the plastic fragments that they found were quite large.
	Some of them had a diameter of 10 microns, from which they concluded that the level of smaller nanoplastics which enter the human body is much higher than was previously thought.
	So the study mentioned higher concentrations of plastics also correlated with lower sperm counts.
	Now, everything that the globalists do is targeted towards population reduction.
	And so this article from the Gold Report says, it's the masks, stupid.
	Yeah, it really is.
	Between 2016 and 2024, there was no particular comment on why those years were chosen, but without wondering whether there could be some reason why, from the years 2020 onward, people's brains might suddenly be filling up a plastic via the nose, as the other study mentioned earlier noted.
	Oh, yeah. Yeah.
	So, if she floats, she's made of wood.
	Who are you so wise in the ways of science to figure that out?
	Fortunately, yet another study, published in a quite obscure journal, Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, in April of 2024, set out to examine the potential of face masks for the content and the release of inanimate toxins.
	Hmm. This was quite an extensive piece of research as it reviewed 1,003 studies covering surgical, textile, and N95 masks.
	Researchers were very concerned at their findings.
	They said most studies, 63% of them, showed alarming results.
	With high micro and nanoplastics release, exceedances could also be evidenced for volatile organic compounds, xylene, acryline, and PFAs, things like that.
	So, you know, again, we didn't know.
	I mean, we saw when all this stuff was happening.
	We saw people who were frantic about all this stuff.
	We could see how they were getting acne over their face, where the face mask was.
	And I talked about it at the time.
	I said, you know, this is the reason they call them face diapers.
	Because your body eliminates waste through your mouth as well.
	And they're dirty diapers that you're wearing all day.
	And you're getting a diaper rash on your face.
	Well, they say here, plenty of scientists knew that already, but they didn't tell you.
	The study conceded that masks do have their uses when it comes to filtering out large particles of dirt and other items that people don't want to inhale, but concluded that the risks of wearing them were considerable enough to be weighed against any benefit.
	Risk and benefits.
	Risk and benefits. There's no way...
	No way that it is going...
	They're telling us that the viral particles, which they were never able to isolate, but they're telling us that these viral particles that they imagine have a size that is so small, as I pointed out, the correct analogy is to say that you're going to put up a hurricane fence to keep out mosquitoes.
	And they say, well, no, it's because it's attached to spittle particles and that type of thing.
	It's like, well, that doesn't work either.
	Because, as a study in New South Wales of 2002 showed, that after people wore these things for 20 minutes in a medical environment, that's what they were studying.
	They found that about half of the doctors and anything didn't even wear them during surgery.
	They didn't believe it was effective.
	But to those who did, after about 20 minutes, the mask became saturated.
	And as a result...
	They would push out spittle particles that were smaller.
	Those smaller particles would travel farther than they would have normally and remain airborne longer
	So none of it made any sense from the very beginning according to our data
	They said they also carry risk these masks do depending on the application a risk-benefit analysis is necessary
	You're being exposed to potentially harmful toxins which pose a significant health risk
	Especially as the toxins are right up against your noses and mouths
	Undoubtedly mask mandates have been generating an additional source of potentially harmful
	Exposition to toxins with health-threatening carcinogenic properties at population level with almost
	zero distance to the airways They cited numerous other studies Most, if not all of which, have received no media attention.
	I've never seen anybody talk about this 2002 study anywhere.
	Alternative media either, in New South Wales.
	They've drawn similar conclusions with regard to a long list of toxins found in face masks of all kinds.
	And by the way, that study in 2002 didn't exist in a vacuum.
	And the reason that came up was because New South Wales, when they first came up with a SARS outbreak in Hong Kong and places like that, everybody started wearing masks in Asia.
	The Australian government there in New South Wales had a massive fine.
	So don't you tell anybody this is going to protect them against SARS. And if you do, something like $100,000 Australian dollars, if you sold these masks, that's why the masks say it's not going to protect you from anything, right?
	There's a reason for that. There's a precedent for that.
	It goes back to 2002.
	All this stuff was based on what they knew was a lie from the very beginning.
	They also noted that such close-up and prolonged exposure to the toxins in the face masks could cause bacteria to multiply and encourage antibiotic resistance.
	And of course, you can see it as plain as the acne on their face.
	They pointed out that the dead space between the mask and the wearer's face is extremely
	unhealthy environment, even without the added presence of toxins and plastics.
	Humans inhale emissions from a mask at a nearly zero distance.
	They swallow water droplets originating from the moist dead space enriched with mask ingredients.
	By the way, one of the other studies was talking about the fact that as you're breathing in
	the air, same as that other study said, look, you're pushing out the particles that are
	smaller, remain airborne longer, travel farther.
	Same thing is true in reverse.
	As you suck the air in, all of these toxins and everything are getting smaller, and it travels farther and deeper down into your lungs.
	So it's bad for both exhaling and inhaling, both for other people as well as for you.
	They stress the difficulty in breathing through a mask leads many people to breathe through their mouth instead of their nose, which deprives them of the immune protection of the nasal passages.
	Meanwhile, widely read medical journals such as the British Medical Journal are still pushing studies on the benefits of wearing face masks.
	They will never stop lying to you.
	Never. Do we have Tony?
	Is he going to join us?
	Okay. Guard Goldsmith.
	Good to see you, Guard. Liberty Conspiracy.
	You can find him on Substack as well as on Rockfin and Twitter Monday through Friday in the evenings at, I'm trying to think, is it 6 o'clock?
	I think. Here it says, Darth Vader's theme is a mashup of Tchaikovsky's Slavic March and Holst.
	Yeah, Mars, the planets.
	Yeah. Yeah, that's right.
	But, you know, he's not totally original, but, you know, you can look at the influences of a lot of different composers over a lot of different things.
	And we've got Tony who is ready for us, so we're going to take a quick break folks, and we will be right back
	the common man They created common core dumbed down our children
	They created Common Past to track and control us.
	Their Commons Project to make sure the commoners own nothing.
	And the communist future.
	They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary.
	But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God.
	That is what we have in common.
	That is what they want to take away.
	Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation.
	They desire to know everything about us while they hide everything from us.
	It's time to turn that around and expose what they want to hide.
	Please share the information and links you'll find at TheDavidKnightShow.com Thank you for listening.
	Thank you for sharing.

	All right, joining us now is Tony Arterman of Wise Wolf Gold, and Tony has kindly set up davidknight.gold.
	That'll take you to Wise Wolf and let him know that you came through us.
	It's a great place to get gold and silver.
	Now is a great time to accumulate gold and silver, as we've been talking about.
	We're going to talk a little bit more about that now, what is happening economically.
	And, of course, Wolfpack, which is something unique that Tony offers.
	It's a large buying group that helps you to get a discount.
	And also, sign up for a fixed amount each month.
	It lets you do cost averaging and gradually save and gradually start to get outside of this fiat system.
	Thanks for joining us, Tony.
	It's great to be here, David. Good to see you.
	Good to have you on. You know, I saw this the other day, and I mentioned this to you when we were off-air.
	Babylon Bee said, Ron Paul has decorated for Halloween by putting up the spooky national debt counter in his front yard.
	Someone said, I have trouble walking by his house alone anymore.
	I almost fainted when I saw the $35 trillion a couple hours ago this evening.
	And it's added even more while I've been standing here talking.
	It's scaring all the neighborhood kids.
	Well, they're the ones who are going to have to pay for it, aren't they?
	That's exactly right.
	It's the looming, demonic ghost of Christmas future.
	Like a Christmas carol, you know.
	That's the final ghost, the ghost of Christmas future.
	And, you know, you look at statements from people like Dick Cheney.
	Remember the deficits don't matter?
	Remember that statement back, I think, circa 2004 or so?
	One of the pioneers of modern monetary theory, right there, Dick Cheney.
	Who knew that he was such a genius, right?
	We're going to test all of the Keynesian models.
	We're testing that right now.
	I mean, we've been in an experiment, a live experiment since 1971 when we went off the gold standard, free-floating fiat currency.
	The lifespan of those currencies is generally 26 years.
	We've doubled it because we're the world's reserve currency, but again, every week we come on, we talk about de-dollarization, and that's happening rapidly.
	We're losing that status, so that won't go on forever.
	Yeah, yeah, that's right.
	And, of course, since we weaponized it, it isn't just – I think things are going to accelerate because after Biden weaponized our financial system against his enemies – they're not my enemies, but against his enemies – since he did that, they have been very focused on coming after our financial system because that is the federal government superpower.
	It's how they manipulate us here domestically, and it's how they manipulate things globally.
	And so that is, you know, these people understand how vital that is to American power, and they're going to do everything they can to shut that down.
	I talked yesterday about somebody who went through Hyperinflation in Lebanon and what a horrific experience that was from a personal standpoint.
	I'm afraid we're looking at something like that.
	In that particular article, the guy who wrote it was a Bitcoin aficionado.
	But, you know, gold and silver, that is a physical way to get outside of a fiat system.
	as he pointed out, and as you said so many times, all fiat systems are essentially going
	to go to zero at some point in time.
	It's just a question of when.
	Yeah, 2022 seems to be the tipping point.
	If you look back through the timeline, Russia invades Ukraine.
	You can argue, if you know anything about history, that it was provoked.
	That's what NATO wanted, the Western powers wanted.
	As soon as they did that, the West moves with even more sanctions and seizing Russian assets.
	And that saw the dip of the ruble, and the ruble dip for a while looked like their currency
	was going to break.
	And then all of a sudden they made some announcements.
	One, their finance minister said they would no longer take dollars.
	They said it was candy wrappers.
	And then they said they were going to back the ruble with so many grams of gold or some
	sort of gram gold system where you could turn it in for that.
	The ruble rebounded.
	And after that, really, you saw the massive acceleration in de-dollarization, which went
	from like 55% of global usage down to like 42% of global usage for the dollar.
	And it was very quick.
	Cross-border payments increased using gold, using crude oil.
	Since then, we've seen Saudi Arabia join BRICS, the United Arab Emirates, Ethiopia, several others,
	and there's like 25 other countries that are in the periphery to join BRICS.
	And that's because of the sanctions that were placed on countries like Russia.
	But it's like 40 different sanctions on 36 different countries.
	That's probably increased since I used that figure.
	I've been throwing it around for 18 months, so it's probably increased since then.
	And we've given billions and billions of seized Russian assets to Ukraine.
	This is supposed to be settled in an international court, and they're supposed to be due process.
	That's all out the window.
	So the other countries took notice, and that's why they're forming these coalitions.
	Even inside BRICS, which, you know, India and China, not friends.
	No, that's right. You know, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
	I think the bullying by the United States, the weaponization of the dollar has major blowback and the consequences.
	We lost the petrodollar recently, which you and I have discussed.
	It didn't get a lot of coverage.
	It should have. If Saudi's not going to exclusively take payment in the dollar, that's it.
	It's done. And they've started taking payment in other currencies.
	And so the petrodollar is dead.
	And so is Biden's policies.
	You know, the Biden cartel, with their sanctions and things like that...
	Russia responded, as you point out, by taking payment in gold.
	And then they said, oh, by the way, we will cut prices by 30%.
	And they still wound up making a lot more money, an additional $300 billion more than they would have made over a very short period of time, because the price of oil skyrocketed because of the U.S.'s actions.
	So they could cut their price dramatically.
	30% take payment in gold instead of American dollars and still have a windfall profit.
	And essentially the same thing has happened with natural gas.
	Even though they blew up those two pipelines going into Germany, there is still more natural gas coming from Russia than it is from the U.S. It has been an absolute failure.
	Everything that the American empire has done has failed militarily and economically, and yet it's going to have tremendous blowback on us domestically.
	The rest of the world isn't buying what we're selling.
	Buy and sell under our system.
	If you deviate, we punish you, and you have to use this debt-ridden US dollar that we continue to expand the money supply with to pay for our bloated empire.
	The rest of the world said no.
	And that's what BRICS is all about.
	And you really see, I think, the underlying current, and what doesn't get talked about a lot, is the massive move to commodities.
	Just in general, whether we're talking about gold or silver, crude oil, energy, copper, mining, all of this...
	And that's what the Belt and Road Initiative really was about, you know, natural resources.
	But that's what the other countries are doing.
	They're moving towards commodities.
	We continue to try to dominate, you know, hegemonic dominance with the U.S. dollar and the American military, and that is waning.
	It's really happening faster than I thought, David.
	I thought we had some years and years left.
	I don't think we do. I mean, especially after losing the petrodollar, and there's something to that.
	Because nobody put up a fight in Washington.
	There was no, like, summit, or can we fix this, or, you know, an extension, or anything.
	It just literally just let it lapse.
	And you see the rest of the world, they continue to grab up, you know, commodities.
	And that's really, in the face of what's happening with fiat currency worldwide, and especially the dollar, there's just a change.
	There's a change on the horizon.
	I think these other countries, obviously, they know that they're running the simulation.
	Yeah. Well, you know, all these Western countries that kind of collectively comprise NATO, the Group of Seven, and all the rest of them, you know, the U.S. is nothing but a kleptocracy anymore.
	They wanted to steal all the Russian stuff, and even the European countries said, no, no, no, we're not going to disconfiscate all that.
	We'll take the interest that's being earned and give that to Ukraine, but we're not going to take all those hundreds of billions of dollars out of that.
	But you know the criminal US government as we have seen with all of these European countries
	is weaponized against its own people and against its own system. You can look at it and say this doesn't make any
	sense unless you realize what the bigger agenda is for the globalists
	and that is to take down Western civilization to return us back to some kind of a feudal system that is
	under the technocracy.
	That is what makes sense.
	That's why they're not doing anything to try to stop this, and that's why you need to get out of their system.
	They're pushing everybody towards a system of austerity, poverty, and total surveillance and control.
	That's why I like to have something that's physical, like gold and silver, that's outside of their system.
	We have to have a little bit of that, at least.
	Can't get 100%. Oh, 100%.
	Yeah. And I think where we all get in trouble is we have normalcy bias.
	All of us do. I don't care how much you know about this or how much you research because you've got muscle memory from living in the decades past.
	Unfortunately, all that's off the table and we have to be a lot more nimble, have the ability to adapt faster.
	You know, my friend Charlie Robinson wrote a book called The Controlled Demolition of the American Empire along with Jeff Berwick.
	I've read that book and I mean very astute, very prescient because it was written a few years ago and just see the acceleration of everything going on with the American empire, the American dollar, the American economy.
	And so, you know, we have to channel our Buckminster Fuller who said people cannot get out of the way of what they don't see coming.
	It doesn't look, you know, if you're following mainstream, it just seems like, well, you know, the stock market continues to be all-time highs and, you know, we've lowered interest rates.
	So, you know, there's cheap money out there and happy days are here again.
	I think what we have is that they continue to inflate these bubbles larger and larger.
	There was an interview up on LewRockwell.com with Doug Casey.
	He said the same thing.
	At the end of the day, just continue to inflate this bubble so that when it pops with all of these metrics and models based off of earnings and all these things that I don't think are real, when that pops and when it collapses in on itself, We're going to see a real problem economically here in this country.
	It's probably going to start in the periphery and then it's going to come home.
	And a lot of those dollars will be repatriated.
	We'll continue to lose purchasing power in the dollar.
	That's just a given. And again, the world's moving to commodities and we're still pumping up the stock market.
	I think there's going to be a reckoning sooner or later.
	Yeah, and when you look at it, you talk about, I don't believe these things are real.
	Just take a look at the jobs report, which is supposedly the basis for them saying, well, even though the Fed cut interest rates, we're going to raise mortgage rates.
	Actually raise mortgage rates. How do they justify it?
	Well, you know, we've got this Bureau of Labor Statistics I think the L doesn't stand for labor.
	I think it stands for lying.
	And the Bureau of Lying Statistics.
	The people who told us that, just told us, that they had inflated the report by over 800,000 jobs, the second largest false report that they've ever had.
	And of course they're always doing it as a false report and revising everything the next quarter to make trends look good.
	But they put out this jobs report and Wall Street is so excited about all of it.
	Zero Hedge says if you look at the jobs report you find that there's a record surge of government workers.
	So it's not even real growth.
	This is parasitic growth, and it's a record growth of government workers, if that's even real.
	You know, they can lie about that and put that in there.
	But that's what they're lying about.
	And now, you know, banks raise the interest rates yet again, even though we've got this big spread in which they're As the Fed drops their interest rates, they keep raising the rates that they charge other people, and then you've got Wall Street all excited about this.
	It's absolutely fake to try to get people to think that Bidenomics works, and it's all just a stack of lies.
	It's absolutely amazing that it's having this effect.
	Maybe they'll bring back, wasn't it FDR had the NRA, the National Relief Authority, or was it agency?
	I forget which one of the A stood for, but that's where they just had all these shovel-ready jobs.
	And they increased the money supply because Franklin Roosevelt said, turn in your gold and we'll replace it.
	We'll give you this $20.
	Turn in your $20 gold piece.
	We'll give you $20 in fiat currency.
	Yeah. Yeah. And then they sold all the gold, or they got rid of it and went to Basel, Switzerland, and they raised the price of gold from $20 an ounce to $35 an ounce.
	So that's what happened to the money supply in 1933 into the Great Depression.
	How'd that work out? Well...
	It didn't...
	Again, they...
	I think that's what the lessons learned by governments and Keynesian modern monetary theory is, we'll just inflate our way out.
	If you don't understand, especially now, that it's not even technically backed by anything like it was technically backed by in 1933 to 1971 was gold.
	The dollar is going to lose massive purchasing power in all of these moves, these austerity moves, because they're going to have to keep, remember what Bloomberg said, we've got to figure out a way to keep them from taking us to the guillotine.
	They know that they have to do something because there's going to be a massive loss of wealth here in the West.
	We're talking about FDR having shovel-ready jobs.
	I think that's basically what's going on with these government workers.
	And you know what? They're shoveling, don't you?
	Government workers, sort of, most on record.
	And we've never seen anything like that.
	And so...
	You know, when you look at what is happening as these things are starting to come back, there are things that are solid.
	There are ways that we can make some preparations outside of this.
	And just as we see with the weather storms, these kind of financial storms, the wars, and also, you know, going back to what is happening with CBDC and other things like that.
	Russia, Israel, others are still manically pursuing this cashless society, CBDC, but
	you talked about Russia and the fact that they're looking towards silver now more.
	Talk a little bit about that.
	This is a, I think this is a major story that, again, I find all these little stories.
	I go, wow, I can't believe this is in on every network.
	The Jerusalem Post put it out.
	Russia is set to boost silver reserves and major precious metals strategy shift.
	Russia shifts its precious metals strategy, adding silver to state reserves alongside gold, platinum, and palladium.
	By the way, they're buying all of those things, not just silver.
	But this has not happened in a very long time, David.
	If you read the history of precious metals like I do, at one time, China was really the world's leader in silver.
	I mean, Mexico produces the most, but China was the world's leader in silver.
	They imported it.
	They used it as currency.
	It was very big. And then, of course, after the communist takeover, a lot of that went out the window, and even gold was banned for a long time in China.
	I mean, they still wanted it at the government, but it was banned by abuse of the people and used in the economy.
	So this is a major shift, in my opinion, They must be looking, obviously looking at the future, like a lot of us look at, you know, just the metrics of silver itself.
	It doesn't make any sense the way it's priced right now.
	I mean, just given geologically, historically, even the market caps of gold and silver don't make any sense.
	It takes what 85 ounces of silver to make one ounce of gold.
	You go and look at another metric, which I think is even more interesting,
	which is about 824 million ounces are mined in silver this year.
	So that's what it's estimated.
	That's down 1% over last year.
	So, you know, and most of silver mining is, uh, it just happens to be that
	they're mining copper and they pull silver, they're mining gold and they
	pull, so they're not going just after silver so that, and it's so, it's so
	cheap that it's not profitable to mine.
	So you have a certain amount that hits the market every year, but what's been happening year after year is you have hundreds of millions of ounces that are deficits.
	So it's estimated this year it's going to be over 200 million ounces again.
	The deficit.
	So everything that's ordered on the market, they have to take 200 million ounces out of the above ground supply.
	It's not coming out of new mining or new refining.
	So there's a reckoning happening.
	Even that article talks about that.
	I mean, just over and over again, you see the repetition that something's off about the silver market.
	So it looks like Russia is positioning itself to To reap the harvest of that.
	I mean, not only is, of course, there's the green aspect or whatever you want to call it with, you know, being used in solar or electric cars, EVs, all that stuff.
	You know, silver is the most thermoconductive metal.
	It's also used in, well, the military-industrial complex.
	We talked about 500 ounces being in each Tomahawk missile, but it's used in medicine.
	It's just across the board, silver has so many uses, and it's super cheap.
	So I think, you know, if I'm a sovereign wealth fund, that sounds...
	Like a good idea to me, Russia's leading the way.
	What say the US? How's our reserves doing?
	Is the government doing anything in the realms of precious metals?
	It doesn't look that way. Yeah, when you look at what our governments are doing, you know, the U.S., the U.K., European governments, they are not doing anything that is to the advantage of their people, unlike Russia and China.
	I mean, they're trying to make themselves more powerful militarily, geopolitically, economically, even though they're making some really bad decisions like we see in China.
	They're still trying to do things in their own interest, if not in the interest of their people, certainly in the interest of the The Central Committee that has got a vested interest in all of it.
	But our government has absolutely turned against us.
	It's kind of interesting to see that Poland now has more gold reserves than the UK. Again, Poland is not really a part of this globalist takedown thing because it's a fairly young government that just got out of...
	After the Cold War, they got out of the...
	From under the thumb of the Russians.
	And so they're starting to move in that direction in terms of being puppets of the globalists.
	But they are proud of the fact that they've accumulated more gold than the UK has now.
	That truly is amazing, isn't it?
	But of course, the UK has the most expensive energy in the world.
	They've shut down their manufacturing.
	The country that got wealthy off of the Industrial Revolution is just eviscerating itself.
	Politically, this is happening to them.
	Yeah, well, Poland knows a thing or two about crisis.
	It knows about world wars.
	It knows about economic hardship.
	So, of course, I think they navigate towards gold.
	You see these are really interesting metrics.
	You know, the dollar supplanted the British pound sterling after, you know, World War II. And something Gore Vidal said that the British Empire and Great Britain basically became an aircraft carrier for the United States of America.
	But that's what happened.
	You know, it was the 19th century.
	The gold standard was the British really held that title as being, you know, the world's reserve currency.
	That's really what you went to. And it was a...
	The gold standard really served, I think, to bolster the Industrial Revolution and sound money and budgeting.
	I think there was a lot of stability that was brought by the gold standard, and really all that went off the rails with World War I. A lot of governments, especially England, you know, made it stop trading in gold.
	You couldn't, you know, get your notes redeemable in precious metals anymore.
	Other countries followed.
	They tried returning to the gold standard, you know, after World War I. And Winston Churchill, he was chancellor of the Exchequer, and that blew up in his face.
	It was another political failure.
	They just couldn't do it. They'd expanded their money supply.
	They couldn't match it to their reserves of actual wealth.
	So again, they were really in decline after World War I and then not being able to go back on the gold standard.
	And eventually it was the United States that supplanted their currency.
	You know, the British pound sterling was right up until 1939 going into 1940, as you know, was really used more
	than the dollar.
	And now that was supplanted.
	So, interesting to see history move.
	And I don't think, you know, we talk every week about the BRICs and I don't know that they're going to come with some
	unifying currency.
	I just think all these countries are decentralizing and using commodities.
	And now we have new, you know, sophisticated cross-border payment systems.
	The dollar is just being phased out.
	I mean, like it or not. I don't like it, by the way, because I love my country.
	I think people that... They don't know better, and I think it'll hurt them that something's being done to their currency.
	It's going to be a horrific transition, but on the other end of it, if we can break this superpower of the Federal Reserve and their fiat currency, that would be something that long-term would benefit Americans, I think.
	But as Brian and Deb McCartney point out, going from a debt-based economy to an asset-based, and that's why they're making these disasters.
	In order to steal resources.
	And I think that's true.
	I mean, we look at all the stuff and how they've leveraged it.
	Even in Poland, as they said, you know, symbolically, we've passed what the Bank of England gold is and said that's always been kind of our point of reference.
	And our goal is to have 20% of our currency reserves in gold.
	And we're just about there.
	So I guess the question is, what do they know?
	And what?
	Why are they doing that?
	And why aren't you as an individual doing that type of thing?
	You know, we look at what the central banks are doing.
	These are the people that got the fiat currencies everywhere.
	And they're moving away from all that stuff towards gold.
	Maybe we ought to do that individually as well.
	I think it's a good idea.
	If you look at those who control the world's wealth, I mean, that's what they're doing, and they're not telling you to do that.
	Always watch what they do, not what they say.
	At the same time that these central banks and the banksters are accumulating record amounts of gold, We're good to go.
	You know, again, whatever your phrase du jour, you know, to describe the, you know, controlled demolition or them knowing before everything crashes, I think they've run the simulations and the math.
	And, you know, we talked about $350 trillion worth of debt worldwide.
	Is there $350 trillion worth of assets really?
	I mean, they estimated it's $400 or whatever.
	And then I look and I see the market cap of gold is $16 trillion.
	David, that doesn't make any sense.
	I mean, I'm not an economist, but how can you have hundreds of trillions in supposed wealth when the market cap of gold is $16?
	That doesn't make any sense.
	I think what you're looking at is there's going to be, again, they say they call it a great reset.
	They're going to reset all currencies and commodity pricing.
	And that's what the U.S. is in store for.
	I don't know what that means for the dollar, but it doesn't look good.
	Yeah, and of course, you know, the great taking and all this leverage of derivatives and all the rest of this stuff.
	I mean, look at what happened in 2008.
	Those derivatives were really weaponized against us.
	Paleo Armory. So silver is the way to go.
	I can't afford that much gold at a time anyway.
	And silver outperformed gold from 2008 to 2011 anyway.
	And it will this time, too.
	The supply of silver goes down every year.
	That's what you were saying. There's just an article on Zero Hedge about silver...
	Could be huge, they said.
	Yeah. Silver just mathematically doesn't make any sense.
	And again, I don't give investment advice.
	I just look at history. I'm telling people, you know, geologically, it's 17 ounces of silver to one ounce of gold.
	That's geologically estimated.
	History shows us 10 to 20 to 1 maximum, all the way back to the Egyptians.
	So even the Romans, the Greeks, the British Empire, even the American, we're 16 ounces of silver
	to make one ounce of gold.
	Now it's 85 ounces.
	But here's another tell.
	If you actually look at the market cap, which I just mentioned of gold,
	it's 16.4 trillion or whatever it is.
	Silver's 1.4, so that's 16.
	So Hamilton had it right, after all.
	I got Alexander Hamilton, that's what he pegged it to at the end of the 18th century.
	So I think we're looking at a reckoning.
	So I think it's across the board.
	It's not just precious metals.
	I think all commodities, the way that we've been pricing and what truly represents wealth in the world is what I'm interested in because I see so much of it built on hype and fake and fiat.
	It's hard to know. You can still use a lot of that fake stuff to buy real things, at least for now.
	That's what I'm looking towards, David, is a pricing reset.
	I don't know when it's going to be, but...
	That's the trend, especially with news like Russia using its silver as a reserve asset.
	Well, and of course, you know, the other part of this that we've never seen before is CBDC and the surveillance state.
	They made no secret about the fact that they intend to watch everything that we do and control everything that we're allowed to do and to purchase and so forth.
	That in and of itself is something that we've never seen before.
	When you look at gold and silver, all of the economic pointers are pointing to instability for the long term.
	But we've never seen that kind of stuff with the CBDC that we've seen before.
	So you've got to have something as a hedge, not just against the financial unrest and this house of cards that they built, but you've got to have some kind of a hedge against what they're trying to enact, the surveillance state.
	And, you know, this kind of mark of the beast type of system.
	That really is, to me, the overriding thing when I look at all this stuff.
	So right now, silver, rather gold, I don't know what silver has done this last week, but I know that gold has gone down in the low 2600s now, I think.
	And again, these things go up and down, but all the fundamentals show that, you know, Welcome to my show!
	And that, you know, they're seeing a steady trend up.
	You see much more manipulation and volatility if you look at gold priced in dollars.
	But if you look at it in these other foreign currencies, it's a much more consistent upward trend than even we've seen in the dollar.
	But the fundamentals are there everywhere, it seems like.
	Oh, absolutely. I mean, it's across the board.
	I've mentioned before, there's 52 times more currency on Earth today than when I was born.
	It's probably increased. That's a metric from 24 months ago.
	So this is only going to get worse.
	And basically gold against every fiat currency, gold wins over time.
	And, you know, there was a period, I think, that I think.
	to 1999 it was like a dead space for gold and silvers because of the, you had
	Reaganomics, you know, the dollar dominating the world, there was the
	collapse of the Soviet Empire, there was a lot of, you know, globalization that was
	happening. What is it, Frank Spookyama said that he wrote the book
	as the end of history, like the liberal democracy had triumphed and all these
	markets were raging at the dot-com bubbles and gold and silver were flat.
	I mean, I think Warren Buffett took silver for a while and then, you know, decided not to go full Hunt family and leave that alone.
	He probably got the call.
	Don't do that because it exposes What's wrong with the dollar?
	So they didn't go anywhere. And, you know, after the opening of the 21st century and especially 9-11 and the global war on terror, all the stuff that moved to make the Chinese most favored trading status, opening the WTO to them on December 11th, 2001.
	We've just seen a massive decline in the dollar.
	That's really what this is all about.
	It's about money velocity, usage of the dollar, and purchasing power.
	We used to back that up with our markets.
	The world's just taking notice.
	2009, David, the net purchasing of gold by central banks wasn't zero, but it was as close as you can get to it.
	They weren't buying.
	They were stocking their reserves and their banks with dollars.
	And now you fast forward to 2024, gold is second.
	It used to be the dollar, and that was about 70%, and then it was the euro.
	And then way down the bottom, precious metals, gold, commodities.
	And after Basel III, when the Bank of International Settlements made gold a Tier 1 asset again, that's when everything changed and central banks started buying gold at a record clip following 2009 and the Great Recession and TARP funds and all that.
	Ben Bernanke said they wouldn't do that again, whatever.
	It's massively printed into oblivion.
	So that's the trend.
	If you want to look at the trend line, the trend is a race towards who has the gold and commodities and value in a world of fiat.
	And that's where I'm going.
	I'm not sticking with the fake.
	Oh, absolutely. Yeah, it's it's Privacy is important and you know physical is important and
	You know when we look at The house of cards that they've created it truly is amazing
	and it is all about Eviscerating the West and empowering China. That's what the
	globalists have been doing Since Kissinger opened up the path of them and they've just
	been a steady progression iteratively moving in that direction whether it's energy
	manufacturing and all the rest of stuff and of course Energy is going to drive the manufacturing if they've got
	it at a big advantage, but even in China They are getting very concerned and you've got articles
	talking about the China doom loop So we're looking at some very uncertain times and we know
	what the long-term trend is We can't predict the price any given point, but we know
	what this trend is going to be pretty pretty clearly Tell us a bit about what's coming up you get your programs
	gonna be following immediately following this one on Thursday
	Tell people about that and give us an idea of what's happening with
	with wise wolf gold Yeah, every Thursday, Arterburn Radio Transmission.
	I used to do a daily show, and I can't do what you do.
	And I filled in for you one time, and I remember telling you, like filling in on your show, it's like, I'm going to borrow your car.
	It's a Cadillac. I'll bring it back.
	It's even nicer than when I borrowed it.
	I fill up the tank with gas.
	I clean it. And that's how I handle your show.
	My show, if you want to come watch it, it's like the Dukes of Hazzard car.
	We get a new one every week.
	I crash it. We'll see what happens.
	But yeah, I've got... It's parapolitics and precious metal, kind of a hodgepodge stream of consciousness, and it's been fun.
	I try to be consistent with it.
	So yeah, come check us out at 11 a.m.
	Central Time on Rock Fan on America Unplugged Channel.
	And you're on Twitter as well, right?
	Yes, on Twitter, at Tony Arterburn.
	You can find me there, and go find me on Facebook and friend me.
	You know, I'm... I got a little meta blue check marks.
	Maybe it'll make it harder on them to cancel me.
	I don't know. I've had it for years.
	Go find me over there.
	It's a good place to network for now anyway.
	I haven't been bothered that much in the recent years.
	Please do that.
	We stream over there. I have a really cool announcement.
	It's only half of the announcement.
	Next week I'll have something even cooler.
	But we have a new setup on Wolfpack.
	And so if you go to davidknight.gold and you just hit the tab that says join Wolfpack You'll take you to wolfpack.gold.
	I wanted to thank Yekka.
	Yekka is who works for me.
	She's my head trader. She put together, and this has been my idea for a while, is two separate tiers.
	So one is for gold, one is for silver.
	That's how we're starting. It's called Wolfpix.
	Okay, it's just called Wolfpix.
	And what it is, is every morning we set the price of gold and the price of silver.
	And if you go on there, it's no fees, free shipping, so you can't use a card, but you have to basically give us an email.
	We send you a payment link for a check.
	But we set the price of gold to the most competitive we can do it.
	We look across the board at all our competitors.
	We set a set price in the morning, and then we take it down in the evening.
	And the same thing for silver.
	So if you want to get the best possible...
	Now, we don't know what that's going to be, because a lot of stuff comes into the shop.
	I might buy a bar. I might buy a coin.
	You could get a graded American Eagle, as long as it's a...
	As long as it's a specified, I want one ounce of gold, Tony, or I want, you know, it's a minimum of 10 ounces of silver.
	So if you lock the price, like right now we just set the price at $35 an ounce on silver, silver bullion.
	You could get American Eagles. You could get sovereign coins.
	We don't know. We're going to fill those 10 ounces.
	With free shipping, now you can go all the way up to $10,000.
	So it's a way for you to lock in trades like the best possible deal.
	And then we take the prices down in the evening and reset them in the morning.
	Sometimes we may not, it may be too volatile to even list it.
	But it's one of the ways that you can, kind of a surprise too.
	It may be a bar.
	It may be two bars.
	It may be something that I have to fill your order to give you an ounce.
	That's what I'm going to do. So it's a way that, because we buy so much from That's cool.
	I like what you do. You're constantly thinking of different ways that you can help people.
	And so now, in addition to Wolfpack, we've got Wolfpick.
	On a daily basis, setting a price for gold and silver based on the kind of things that you're bringing in in terms of buying gold and silver from people.
	That's a great idea. I really like that.
	Well, I've got a comment here, but we'll talk about that when I come back.
	It's not about gold or silver.
	Always great to have you on, Tony.
	And again, folks, right after this show, you can find the Ardaman Radio Transmission and join Tony there.
	And he's going to...
	Talk to you some more about politics and about metals and all the rest of the stuff, and that's something that we really need to focus on, especially when we look at how this is a plan.
	This is a plan to take everything down, so you've got to try to get outside of their plan.
	It's not like they're just incompetent.
	No, they're unfortunately a bit too much competent combined with their So it's always great to have you on, Tony.
	Folks, go to davidknight.gold, and I'll take you to Tony Arterman's Wise Wolf.
	Thank you, Tony. Appreciate it.
	Thank you, David. Folks, we're going to take a quick break, and we'll be right back.
	Here's a little bit of Lala for you.
	Let me tell you, The David Knight Show, you can listen to with your ears.
	You can even watch it by using your eyes.
	In fact, if you can hear me, that means you're listening to The David Knight Show right now.
	Yeah, good job.
	And you want to know something else?
	You can find all the links to everywhere to watch or listen to the show at TheDavidKnightShow.com.
	That's a website.
	And DJFS says, shoot, I just checked on another device and your likes on this video are not being shown.
	It says, zero after two hours of the show, and I already liked it.
	Everyone liked the show right now.
	I appreciate that.
	It is, you know, that's the frustrating thing about this.
	It really is. There's so much headwind in all this stuff.
	You know, people talk about, well, you know, the government is conspiring to do this and conspiring to do that.
	That's been my life.
	Yeah. It's to watch the government conspire to shut me down every which way they can.
	So I really do appreciate those of you who like the show while it's live and other things.
	It is interesting to see the different things that they will go to.
	Again, I have offended some of the powers that be, and I take that as a point of honor.
	Let's talk a little bit about what is happening.
	Interesting stuff is happening with the Trump Bibles.
	And also with homeschooling.
	And I mentioned this the other day.
	These homeschool moms, I keep seeing these articles brought up over and over again.
	They have a lawsuit that's going on because Arizona decided that they were going to give subsidies to people to homeschool.
	And I have always advised people to not take that money.
	Don't take the money.
	It always comes with strings attached.
	It always does.
	And so I've always said the argument when we were doing homeschooling, everybody said, well, you know, we want to do sports or we want to do band or whatever, and we need to have state money for this.
	I said, don't do it. They're going to put standards and other things like that.
	So they were getting money from the government for pencils and for books and things like that, and now the government wants you to tell them and to justify, you know, books, especially, you know, the pencils, flashcards, and erasers.
	They were using it for that, but...
	They want to know what your curriculum is, and they're going to set in judgment of that.
	And so one of the mothers who's suing said, the government is changing the rules and putting impossible burdens on me.
	Never saw that coming, did we?
	That's what they always do.
	All of a sudden, we have a government telling us what we can and cannot teach.
	It's because you took the bribe.
	And I just mentioned this not to criticize them, but that's the nature of government.
	When are people going to realize? I've had this argument with people about Trump and his bribery as part of the lockdown stuff.
	People don't understand that's how the government operates.
	Trump understands that. He's now making promises.
	I will withhold their money if they don't do what I want them to do.
	They always throw the money out there, they get you hooked on it, and they pull it back.
	We've seen Obama do it, Biden do it, Trump do it.
	They all do it. So...
	I've also talked about the fact that the state of Oklahoma has decided that they want to put Bibles in all of the schools and have teachers teach it.
	And I have also been adamant about the fact that this is something that I think is just too important.
	It's too important to outsource the raising of your children, the education of your children, especially about the most important things.
	What is an education for, as a matter of fact?
	I've talked many times about Earl Dabney, who after the Civil War, he said, you look at the government schools in Massachusetts, he said, I blame the Civil War on them, largely.
	You know, the kind of, they were used as social engineering.
	And he said, how are we going to have government schools?
	Government school, by its nature, if it's going to try to educate people, is going to be getting involved in the free exercise of religion.
	Because an education is not simply about reading, writing, and arithmetic.
	It's not about any kind of technical information as much as it is about establishing character and all the rest of the stuff.
	If you go to the homeschooling conventions as we did 30 years ago...
	I began looking at it then.
	I guess it's still the same way.
	You can go back and you can find all the textbooks and things like that that were being used by parents, by their associations of local school boards and everything.
	They were all based around character.
	They were all based around the Bible.
	They were based around Christianity.
	But that was what they were focused on.
	And so I'm not trying to purge Christianity out.
	I'm trying to purge government schools out.
	And you need to not entrust the most precious things that you have, your children, and their souls and their minds, to the kind of people that we've seen running these institutions.
	The institutional corruption is just beyond belief, and I can't believe that people are still buying into it.
	Having said that, it gets even worse when you look at what is happening in Oklahoma.
	This is coming from Reason Magazine, and they point out that the guy who is the head of schools there, Ryan Walters, strict stipulations make it clear that he's steering Oklahoma schools to purchase not just Bibles, but Donald Trump's Bibles.
	Oklahoma's push for Bibles in schools comes with a Trump-sized price tag.
	And so, when you look at his specifications for the Bible, well, first of all, he came in.
	This is Oklahoma State Superintendent of Public Instruction.
	And he is a big supporter of Trump, Ryan Walters.
	And he says, every teacher, every classroom in the state will have a Bible and will be teaching from the Bible in the classroom.
	How do you feel about that?
	Seriously, do you want somebody that has a completely different understanding of the Bible teaching your children?
	Do you want people who have animosity towards the Bible as so many of these teachers we see on TikTok do?
	Do you want them teaching your kid from the Bible?
	I mean, what we would do is I would teach my kids evolution and Because I would want them to understand the controversy, and we would teach both sides of it, and we'd say, here's why this is true, and here's why that is false.
	And you know the teacher's going to be doing that with the Bible there.
	We need to shut down public schools.
	It's an idea that has failed.
	But this kind of harkens back to its creation.
	As public education was created, it was created by a lot of people who said, well, we've got a lot of families out here who aren't teaching Christianity to their kids, so we're going to do it in the schools, and we're going to make these kids so that we're going to have a more moral society.
	And we're going to have people who are ready to work in the workforce.
	We're going to prepare them for the corporations.
	We've heard that at the very beginning of this.
	That was a stated intention.
	And yet exactly the opposite has happened.
	We've got people who can't tie their shoes.
	And we've got godless schools that are grooming kids sexually and all the rest of the stuff.
	It's like Straight Out of Brave New World by Huxley.
	And so I think that is a fundamentally bad idea.
	But then, at September's Oklahoma State School Board of Education meeting, Walters requested an additional $3 million.
	So the total he wants is $6 million for Bibles.
	And their new King James Version Bibles is what he had to say.
	But then when the bids opened up last week for 55,000 Bibles, it went back to the King James Version.
	Now, for those of you who don't know, the King James Version has been around for a very long time.
	There is no copyright on it.
	The only cost that you have is the cost of printing on it, really.
	You don't have to pay anybody for it.
	Any of the newer translations, including the New King James Version and all the other translations, have copyrights still associated with them.
	You might have a translation that is owned by, for instance, Zondervan, one of the Bible publishing things.
	And so that is a part of the cost.
	But if you're going to go to King James, the price should go down.
	But he specified, changed it from New King James to King James, and then he added this.
	It must include copies of the U.S. Pledge of Allegiance, the U.S. Declaration of Independence, the U.S. Constitution, and the U.S. Bill of Rights.
	Oh, and it must be bound in leather or leather-like material.
	Well, as Reason pointed out, there's only one Bible that fits all those specifications.
	There's only one Bible that has got all of those political documents added to it.
	That's the Trump Bible.
	And so the Oklahoman reported on Friday that none of the 2,900 Bibles carried by Mardell Christian Bookstore meet Walter's qualifications.
	But the Trump-endorsed God Bless the USA Bible fits the bill like a grift-lined glove.
	A second Bible that fits the request for proposal was also identified as the We the People Bible that is endorsed by Don Trump Jr.
	Oh, the Jr., the grifter in training, right?
	Isn't that amazing? And that's available for $90.
	And you can get the Trump Bibles for $60.
	Of course, if you want a signed one from Donald Trump, it'll cost you $1,000.
	So, what are they going to be paying for?
	Well, the superintendent's request is for $6 million to buy 55,000 Bibles.
	That breaks down to $140 per Bible.
	So what you could buy from the Trump Bible website for $60, Oklahoma is going to pay $140 for that.
	And Walters thinks that he's come up with a way to send Trump his share of over $3 million of taxpayer money.
	Yeah, he really has the best interest of your children at heart, doesn't he?
	He just wants to teach them all about Jesus, but no, it's all about sending money to his Messiah.
	This is disgusting.
	And this is what we see all the time from these politicians.
	Like I said, you want to mix politics with religion, you're going to wind up with politics.
	Don't let other people teach your children the most vital things.
	You know, it's far more important.
	It was a big thing when we were homeschooling our kids.
	People get these bumper stickers.
	I have an honor student at such and such a school, right?
	I said, well, we need to get one made up and say, I have an honorable student at, and we had to have a name for our school.
	I have an honorable student at the name of our school.
	Isn't that really what we're trying to, what good does it do To have somebody who has absolutely no moral character but is very smart and highly educated, that just makes them more dangerous, doesn't it?
	Do you really want your child to be like that?
	Former Oklahoma Attorney General said this RFP may violate state law.
	It appears to me that this bid is anything but competitive.
	The special binding, for example, and the inclusion of government documents will exclude almost all bidders.
	Except for one. Oh, yeah.
	I wonder what he had in mind.
	Who knows what these guys were up to.
	I think it's pretty clear. Well, then it gets even more interesting.
	Because it just came out yesterday that Trump has had his Bibles printed in China.
	Ha ha ha ha!
	And this is amazing on a number of different levels.
	The people who are talking about this in politics are saying, well, he's always criticized China.
	You know, we're losing all of our manufacturing to China.
	Well, that's one aspect of it.
	But the other aspect of it is in China, the Christian persecution that goes on there is absolutely astounding.
	But again, just like Donald Trump, the Chinese Communist Party doesn't have any principles when it comes to money.
	They'll do anything, right?
	They'll still continue to imprison Christians.
	They'll still use them for organ harvesting, removing the organs while they're alive, as they do so many other political and religious prisoners.
	But they'll make money shipping out Bibles.
	The estimated cost of three shipments from China was $342,000, which would mean that the Bible costs less than $3 each to manufacture in China.
	And that is not surprising at all.
	I mean, people give away King James Bibles.
	You get one that's got a cheap binding on it or something like that, people.
	You know, you can pick those up retail very, very cheaply.
	And so the idea that he'd get these Bibles printed, use King James Version, that is, he doesn't have to pay for that.
	It's only the cost of the printing.
	Get it printed in China, where the cost of printing is extremely low.
	The minimum price for the Trump-backed Bible is $60.
	Putting the potential sales revenue at about $7 million.
	But of course, it's going to be twice as much as that for Oklahoma.
	More than twice. You can pick up a Trump Bible that cost him $3.
	You can get it for $60.
	But hey, if it's filtered through his pal, his supporter in Oklahoma, well, he can sell that $3 Bible for $140 to the suckers in Oklahoma.
	Elmer Gentry comes to mind.
	Some kind of a hustling door-to-door Bible salesman, if it couldn't get any worse.
	This Bible is a reminder that the biggest thing we have to bring back in America and to make America great again is our religion, says Trump.
	Well, what is his religion?
	There's a real question about that.
	I don't think his religion is my religion.
	Pretty much everything that he does is condemned for followers of Christ.
	And I don't think he believes Christ is the Messiah either.
	I don't think his family does.
	He was just this last week.
	He was going through rituals and praying to a dead Jewish Messiah, the Shabbat Lubavitch guys' Rabbi Schneerson.
	They think that he's the Messiah and that he's coming back.
	And Trump was there offering prayers and things on October the 7th.
	So our religion, I don't know what our religion is when he says it, but Trump didn't say where the God Bless USA Bibles are printed, where they are, or what they cost.
	And again, if you want to get a hand-signed one from Trump, it'll cost you $1,000.
	They also have a new version of the $60 Bible that memorializes the July 13th assassination.
	And, you know, picture of him, I guess, and the phrase, the day God intervened.
	That's on the cover of the Bible.
	For years, Trump has castigated Beijing as an obstacle to America's economic success, slapping hefty tariffs on Chinese imports, but hey, maybe not on his Bibles.
	But the issue that AP is not going to talk about, of course, is the Christian persecution that's been going on by the Chinese Communist Party.
	They don't really care about that at all.
	They'll occasionally say something about Muslim persecution, but they're not going to talk about Christian persecution.
	Tim Wildsmith, a Baptist minister who reviews Bibles on his YouTube channel, said he quickly noticed the signs of a cheaply made book when the God Bless USA Bible arrived, wrapped in plastic inside of a padded mailer.
	He said it had a faux leather cover.
	Words were jammed together on the pages, making it hard to read.
	He also found sticky pages that ripped when he pulled them apart.
	And there was no copyright page or information about who printed the Bible.
	Of course, there's not going to be a copyright page on a King James Bible.
	I was shocked by how poor the quality of it was.
	It says to me that it was more about the love of money than, he said, the love of our country.
	Well, Bibles aren't about the love of our country.
	They're about the love of Christ. Florida is threatening a local TV station with prosecution over a dangerous pro-choice ad.
	And again, folks, look, I'm all about the Bibles.
	I don't like to see this kind of thing being done.
	And I'm all about protecting life.
	But the state of Florida, the Florida Department of Health, sent a cease and desist letter to a Florida news station.
	After it aired an ad that claimed that women with cancer would be unable to get abortions in the state.
	Now, this is patently false.
	But this article from Reason points out that that doesn't matter, does it?
	I mean, do we really, you know, we can look at this and the state can make a case that this is false.
	But false claims are the staple of political ads, aren't they?
	We always have one side saying something and contradicting the other, and it's rare if one side is telling the truth.
	Usually they're both lying.
	But the remedy to bad speech or to false speech is to have more speech, to have true speech.
	It's not censorship.
	And this is a problem that I have with DeSantis.
	Look, he's done a great job with a lot of things.
	He's done a great job with the storm preparation, as I mentioned.
	But boy, does his administration have no understanding whatsoever about the importance of free speech.
	He enacted censorship laws and hate crimes and stuff like that, signed it in Israel because he's looking for money when he did that.
	And now we have the Florida Department of Health coming after this advocacy group that is pushing for abortion.
	And again, the issue is important.
	But if we lose our ability to be able to have free speech, if we're going to have government minders who are going to say, you can say this, but you can't say that.
	And they're saying that now.
	They're talking about, well, that's dangerous speech, what you're saying about FEMA. You better shut up.
	Or pick any topic, right?
	I mean, this has been my life for the last eight years.
	Can't say anything about this.
	I don't like what you're saying about that, so we're going to punish you.
	And it's going to get to the point very quickly.
	It's already ramping up.
	We're seeing this happen in multiple nations, in Australia, in the UK, others where they are locking people up now because they don't like your speech.
	It's not just kicking you off of social media or off of broadcasting.
	It's not even at the point where they're going to give you fines.
	They're going to actually lock you up, put you in jail because of this.
	So there's this metastasizing tyranny of free speech that is going to affect everything.
	And it's going to keep us in the long term.
	It's just like when we talk about nationalizing the abortion laws.
	In the long term, what it's going to do is prevent you from helping to save the lives of babies.
	Because what we're talking about here is a totalitarian government.
	The ad produced by the advocacy group Floridians Protecting Freedom depicts a woman discussing how she was diagnosed with terminal stage 4 brain cancer while 20 weeks pregnant.
	In order to start treatment to prolong her life, she needed an abortion.
	The doctors knew that if I did not end my pregnancy, I would lose my baby, I would lose my life, and my daughter would lose her mother.
	Florida has now banned abortion even in cases like mine.
	Amendment 4 is going to protect women like me.
	Well, they responded and they said that's absolutely not true.
	The department's letter says that to the news station, says you can't air this ad because its content is false and dangerous, therefore subject to the Florida law banning sanitary nuisances.
	Sanitary nuisances?
	Do you see how this is going to be weaponized for things like vaccines and other germ games?
	We got laws against sanitary nuisance.
	And so you got to shut up.
	Wow. Wow. Anything that threatens the health or the lives of individuals.
	Now, that means all of what I have to say that they don't like.
	I mean, I got kicked off of Vimeo because of misinformation about vaccines.
	Now, I'm telling you the truth about vaccines.
	And if they don't think it's the truth, they ought to come out and say what they disagree with.
	They won't even say... What they disagree with.
	And I know what they disagree with.
	They disagree with the fact that I criticize the pharmaceutical companies.
	They disagree with the fact that I talked about how they have bought the media.
	And they have. And they bought the people who censored me as well.
	Vimeo. But if you don't agree with what I have to say, then fine.
	You know, you've got a big platform.
	Why don't you put something out there and say what I got wrong?
	But they won't even specifically say.
	You're just not allowed to criticize the pharmaceutical industry.
	And I do more than criticize them.
	I call them what they are.
	Murderers. They're absolutely murderers.
	They'll do anything for money, and they love harming people because that's what the government wants out of this agenda.
	The department argued that because Florida's abortion law allows for abortions to prevent serious risk of, quote, physical impairment of a major bodily function, Caroline would have, in fact, been able to get an abortion under Florida's law.
	So yes, they are lying.
	But I don't want the government shutting down somebody because they are lying.
	Look, if you've got remedies for defamation and other things like that, they can sue them for that.
	Other people can sue them for what they have to say.
	But government censorship should never be allowed under any circumstances.
	As Reason said, even if it were clearly true that Caroline would have been able to obtain an abortion under Florida's law, and it is true, the state can't simply force a broadcaster to take down an ad, especially when it's political.
	That speech is squarely protected by the First Amendment, even if, as the state claims, it contains false information.
	Certain kinds of false speech fall outside the First Amendment's protection, like defamation and fraud.
	But what they're talking about here...
	It's saying, well, you have a speech that is false and dangerous.
	It is a sanitary nuisance that threatens the health or the lives of individuals.
	Wow. Reason says the Supreme Court has been clear that the First Amendment doesn't give the government free-floating power to suppress speech merely based on its judgment that it is false or misleading.
	You see, that's the problem. The judgment of whether or not something is false or misleading has to belong and reside with we the people, not they the government.
	That's the difference between freedom and tyranny.
	Just that simple. If they're going to be the arbiters of what is true and pretend that they have to protect us from lies that we can't figure out, this is easily, easily shown to be false.
	And it is easily shown that this approach is being taken by yet another Florida agency, It's going to ultimately lead to tyranny.
	They're already doing this. Typically, the state doesn't do it.
	Typically, what the state does is they're doing it directly.
	In America, they do it through surrogates, through social media, through search engines, through YouTube, and things like that.
	That's typically how they operate.
	And so you see, at the same time, DeSantis, for a reason that I would agree with, to try to protect the baby's lives, is saying you can't lie about what our pro-life law says.
	We have USA Today saying anything about Hurricane Paz and FEMA response spurs dangerous misinformation.
	USA Today is saying this is dangerous, and you can't say anything about what FEMA's doing.
	You see? They're going to gag you over this now while they push on climate change?
	Officials leading the recovery effort have had to fight more than just storm damage.
	Falsehoods and conspiracy theories about FEMA have spread widely online.
	Poor FEMA. Did you realize that the true victims of Hurricane Helene are FEMA? I wish we could wipe FEMA off the map.
	I wish we could sweep them away in a flood of public anger.
	That's what I'm trying to do.
	I'll tell you what my agenda is.
	My agenda is to just flush them down the river, that toxic waste that we call FEMA. But these efforts, FEMA's efforts, says USA Today, are being complicated by false claims that the agency is not helping people That they don't have the money to help, or that they're getting in the way, or, and listen to this, to say that people affected by the storm are only getting provided $750 in assistance.
	That was said by Lala.
	So now you're telling us that Lala lied?
	USA Today doesn't really understand the consequences of their propaganda.
	That's the logical conclusion, is that Lala lied.
	If it's not just $750, well then, I guess she lied to everybody.
	And essentially she did, because there was one mayor who was being interviewed on Fox News, Sarah Carter.
	And he said, yeah, this is an insult, $750.
	And he said, and then my daughter, who lost everything, they would only give her $300.
	And he said, that doesn't even cover the food that she lost in her freezer.
	So this USA Today article says, well, here's some of the hurricane-related claims that USA Today has debunked.
	You know, that HARP was used to control the path of the Hurricane Helene.
	Our rating is false, and so forth.
	You know, it is not possible to control weather.
	Well, I guess the CIA Director Brennan disagrees with you.
	Why don't you call Brennan a liar?
	Why don't you call Lala a liar?
	The Biden administration spent FEMA hurricane relief money on illegals.
	False, they said. Well, I tell you, I don't need government to come in and shut down USA Today.
	I know they're liars.
	I can look at this stuff and I can look at what the people on the ground are saying.
	I know what the experience is.
	I know what's been reported. I know what their own politicians and CIA people have said.
	USA Today is lying to us, but I'm not calling for USA to be shut down.
	I'm calling for them to be ignored.
	Just like I do some of the alternative mainstream media.
	It's like, just ignore what Alex is telling you.
	I'm not calling for him to be shut down.
	Just ignore it. Because he's misleading you.
	And so are these people as well.
	And in Australia, up to five years in prison for what they would call hate speech.
	And they've now redefined it.
	It used to be the hate speech in Australia.
	Was to hate somebody because of race and religion.
	Now what they have added to race and religion is any speech that they would consider to be hateful about gender identity, sex, sex characteristics, sexual orientation, and on and on. So if you don't use their pronouns, you could literally go to jail.
	This is why what DeSantis is doing in support of pro-life, these principles and these structures matter.
	And the end does not justify the means.
	Offline, these laws will apply to both public and private interactions and conversations.
	This is a rewrite of the Racial and Religious Tolerance Act.
	And why not? Because they've really got a new religion, don't they?
	That's what this truly is about.
	It's about their new religion.
	Well, Kirk Cameron is urging Christians to vote their values for a spiritual comeback.
	Don't you remember that in Acts where Peter stands up and says, repent and vote?
	For the salvation of your soul, right?
	I don't remember that being in there.
	And maybe I have to go back and check the Greek.
	I don't know. I don't think that's there.
	I don't think that's how we have a spiritual comeback.
	Look, and I like Kirk Cameron, and he's been very good in terms of exposing what's going on with this drag queen stuff.
	I don't want to criticize him too much.
	But it's not about the voting, folks.
	It really isn't. It's about our kids.
	It's about schools.
	It's about taking responsibility for our lives.
	Get over this obsession that is shared by him and so many big preachers and religious leaders and all this stuff.
	They are so focused on politics and they're missing what needs to be done with themselves and with their family.
	Kirk Cameron is urging all Americans of faith to vote their values.
	Well, that's not what I intend to do.
	That's why I won't vote for either Lala or Trump.
	I'm not going to vote for evil.
	I'm not going to vote the lesser of evil.
	There's good and there's evil.
	There's not 52 Shades of Grey or whatever that movie was, right?
	Is it 50 Shades? I don't know what it was.
	But, you know, it's black and it's white, okay?
	It's not all these shades of gray.
	There's no moral ambiguity here.
	It's pretty clear. And I could look at this stuff and I could make some kind of a judgment on it if we didn't have the things that happened in 2020 with the lockdown.
	The closure of churches. And so now I see these people who've fought the lockdown orders, who fought Fauci, who hate the vaccine, who fought the vaccine mandate.
	Now they're pushing for the people who created all this stuff.
	The lesser of two evils.
	And we got people out there.
	We got a group called Evangelicals for Lala.
	Boy, you talk about an oxymoron.
	But he says, I believe with all my heart, says Kirk Cameron, that it is and that God did not create us And rescue us through the gospel to be cowards.
	Well, I agree. And Kurt has been very bold in terms of standing up to these people.
	He's done some very effective things.
	But I just think that if you really understand what's going on in Washington, you're going to see that you're wasting your time.
	You're wasting your time.
	You're looking at the wrong thing.
	He said, we have to realign the nation with heaven's values.
	You're not going to do that.
	That's not within your power.
	You can realign yourself.
	You might have enough influence on your kids, maybe.
	Not always. You can't even reliably influence your kids.
	I've known so many people who have been strong Christians who have worked so hard with their kids and they don't go in that direction.
	You know, this is something between them and God.
	God has a hand in this.
	You can pray for it, but you can't realign even your own children, let alone the nation, with heaven's values.
	What we can do is we can be unashamed in declaring what heaven's values are.
	That's really what the evangelical is about.
	It's about a proclamation.
	It isn't about winning the argument.
	It's about speaking the truth.
	And what a reproach it is to Christians to line up behind either Trump or Lala.
	That's a reproach to Christ.
	I would never associate the Lord Jesus Christ with either of those two people in any way, shape, or form, let alone say that this is how we're going to restore the nation to Christian values.
	He says, in the words of Noah Webster, every civil government is based on some religion or philosophy of life.
	Absolutely. Absolutely.
	Everything is downstream from your worldview, from your religion.
	Everything in your life, everything in the society.
	He said America is a foundational religion that was Christianity.
	And he said it was sown into their hearts for two centuries through the home and school, public and private.
	Well, no, actually, I think it's sown into your heart by God.
	And it's not home and school.
	It's parents taking their job to school their own children.
	When you walk with them in the way, when you walk with them in the way, you teach them the principles.
	You point out what is happening and make that relevant.
	See what's happening over there? See what's happening in society?
	The Bible has spoken about this, and we understand what that's about.
	That's what you've got to do with your kids.
	He says our foundation needs to be biblical, moral, and spiritual values.
	Well, again, don't compromise those out of fear.
	Don't compromise those out of partisan loyalty.
	You see, the philosophy of life that your children are going to be getting in school is going to be a Marxist philosophy.
	It's going to be a fear of climate change.
	It's going to be the debauchery of LGBTs.
	It's just, when you look at what people are doing, here's a good example.
	Billy Graham, Evangelistic Association, is threatening to sue.
	Again, they don't like speech.
	Just like DeSantis, we don't like, you're lying about our pro-life ad, and we need to protect babies, and I agree with all that stuff.
	They are lying, and we do need to protect babies.
	But they're going to intimidate the radio station and tell them, no, you can't say anything that might put somebody's life at risk or something like that.
	Whatever the public health people are claiming.
	I just read it to you. But, no, we don't want to have that system.
	And we don't want to have a system where the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association is threatening to sue evangelicals over an anti-Trump ad.
	And I'm going to play this for you.
	What it amounts to is you have...
	They took these evangelicals for Lala.
	I think we could call them Lala-jellicles.
	They have absolutely no idea what their religion is, who they're following, what the Bible teaches.
	If they're supporting Lala, they're Lala-jellicles.
	They're clueless about what's happening.
	They're just as clueless as she is.
	But what they did with this commercial...
	It's actually pretty good. They took a short little statement that was made, part of a sermon where Billy Graham is preaching, and he's talking about, you know, Christian values and stuff like that.
	And what they do is they have him say something, and then they have Trump doing exactly the opposite, okay?
	Saying exactly the opposite.
	And, you know, when I look at that, so the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association wants to sue to take that down.
	And I'll tell you the basis of why they say they want to sue after I play this for you.
	But it truly is crazy.
	But you must realize that in the last days, the times will be full of danger.
	Men will become utterly self-centered and greedy for money.
	My whole life I've been greedy, greedy, greedy.
	I've grabbed all the money I could get.
	I'm so greedy. They will be proud and abusive.
	You've called women you don't like fat pigs, dogs, slobs, and disgusting animals.
	Uncontrolled and violent.
	I'd like to punch them in the face, I'll tell you.
	They will be treacherous, reckless, and arrogant.
	I am the chosen one.
	Loving what gives them pleasure instead of loving God.
	You know, I'm automatically attracted to beautiful.
	I just start kissing them.
	It's like a magnet. Maintain a facade of religion.
	But their lives deny the truth.
	Have you ever asked God for forgiveness?
	That's a tough question.
	I'm not sure I have.
	I don't bring God into that picture.
	I don't. Keep clear of people like that.
	Okay, well, you know, what's wrong with that?
	See, what needs to be done is we need to expand that and have Billy Graham say those true things, then have the Trump quote, and then the Lala quote.
	And the next one, he says something, and then you have Lala, and then you have Trump.
	Both of them are completely at odds with Christian values.
	Now, my question for the Billy Graham Evangelistics Association is, Are you backing away from the truth that Billy Graham was saying there?
	And I'm not a Billy Graham supporter.
	I mean, Billy Graham thinks he bought into this stuff of wideness and God's love type of thing.
	Same stuff that you're hearing from the Pope, for example.
	You know, oh yeah, everybody's going to heaven.
	I don't believe that, frankly.
	And I'm not going to give people that kind of false assurance.
	But look, what he was saying there was absolutely right.
	So, do they not like the fact that somebody is putting out what Billy Graham says, right?
	Or they don't like the fact that they're criticizing Trump?
	Look, there's a lot more that you could put in there about Trump to bolster each and every one of those things.
	I mean, they didn't show him partying with Jeffrey Epstein.
	They just said, yeah, I see beautiful women.
	I'm just going to go over and kiss them.
	And they let you do that because you're a star, right?
	But they said, well, you can't show this because it is copyright infringement.
	No, it's not. It's fair use.
	It's fair use. They're commenting on what he has done.
	And so are you ashamed of the truth that you're, you know, that Billy Graham is the Billy Graham Association ashamed of the truth that Billy Graham is saying there?
	Or are they just trying to support somebody who is the antithesis of everything that Billy Graham is promoting in that clip?
	The person who is the epitome of everything that Billy Graham in that clip is telling us we have to watch out for in the last days.
	Could have gone on and said lovers of self.
	I mean, that sums it all up pretty much for these politicians.
	It's a $1 million ad campaign from the La La Jellicles.
	I think that's not all true of their sex worker candidate.
	Two ways the school complex muzzles parents and students.
	This is from Mises.org.
	Look, you know, the Billy Graham Foundation, in my opinion, ought to be fighting the public schools and public health.
	Instead, what they're fighting is free speech.
	Instead, what they're fighting for is Trump, right?
	Man, I tell you, this is why when I say you mix politics with religion, you wind up with politics.
	Let's not talk about the fact that Trump is doing all of those things.
	Their response to the Billy Graham Foundation, if they don't like that and they like Trump, what they ought to do is they ought to just do one with Lala, not one with Lala and Benedict Donald.
	They could do the same thing with her.
	It'd be very easy. I think the ideal thing is to put out a commercial that shows both of them for what they really are.
	I object to all this because they appear to be trying to set Trump up.
	As some kind of a moral leader in everything they do.
	He's anything but that.
	He's immoral as a leader.
	Even if he were to hit the right policies.
	And you can't trust him on those policies.
	I said, when he started doing the stuff that he was doing in 2020, I said, what do you expect from somebody who has thrown out three women and bragged about it?
	And we saw him do that to everybody that was in his cabinet, pretty much.
	Bring them in. Oh, this is the best person in the world for this or that.
	Flattering them over the top, then throwing them out and mocking them endlessly after he does that.
	And that's what he always did with his wives, but that's what he always did.
	That's what he did in 2020 with the Constitution.
	And I said, do you think that somebody who won't pay attention to the oath that he took for his wife, you think he's going to pay attention to the Constitution?
	Just as unfaithful to the Constitution.
	He divorced the Constitution in 2020.
	And from a secular standpoint, I can't support him.
	From a religious standpoint, I think these people are a reproach to support him.
	Assyrian girl says, and they'll be teaching humanism from the Bible, not God's truth.
	That's right. Just imagine the twisted mess that'll pour out of those teachers.
	Like today's kids who can't speak, can't read, everyday English will understand King James English.
	That's right. I was asked the other day, this is Mises, I was asked the other day why parents and students don't have more to say in their education in the government system.
	And my reply was simply because that's the goal.
	You have surrendered your kids to the state.
	What do you expect them to do?
	You think they're going to ask you?
	You think, just like FEMA wants your input?
	Like FEMA wants you to be allowed to protect yourselves and your neighbors?
	No, you don't have my permission.
	Get out of here. You can't do this.
	You've got to do that. That type of thing.
	The system exists to perpetuate itself, just like FEMA. And to propagandize large numbers of children each year so they believe and pass on to their children the myths that permit government predation.
	The system and those in it have to quash individuality, says Mises.org.
	But even more importantly, they don't say this.
	They're there to quash your spirit, your connection to God.
	That's what they're there to quash.
	You want those people teaching your kids Bible?
	I don't want them teaching my kids anything.
	They can't even teach math and reading.
	Phonics, they can't even do that.
	Over time, the system has expanded to include more than 80% of the children in the United States.
	This public school system.
	It is an abomination.
	Just like the public health bureaucracy, the public school system is an abomination.
	Marxist totalitarian central government at its worst.
	These public systems.
	80% of the children in the U.S., 3.2 million teachers, 97,568 schools, an average of over 500 students per school, and nearly 1 trillion, trillion with a T, in tax funds each year.
	Why you can never own your home.
	And it's only getting worse.
	As kids are bused in from other countries for a free education at your expense.
	At the expense of your home.
	A behemoth, such as the one that is metastasized in this country, has innumerable ways to muzzle both parents and students.
	But two primary methods ensure compliance and uniformity in the system and its graduates.
	Compulsion and bureaucracy.
	Because again, going back to the 1920s, one of the planks of the Communist Party was to have compulsory school funded by taxes.
	They understood this. What do we have to do?
	We have to transcend this in our parallel society.
	It's just that simple.
	Going back to the very first article again, do not ask these people for money.
	Don't make that Faustian bargain.
	Or that Faucian bargain.
	So this is from the center.
	America's days of Noah are here.
	After 5,700 American children are mutilated in four years.
	Just think about that.
	I mean, when you look at just that one aspect, isn't that enough to disqualify sending your kids to school?
	Isn't that enough to disqualify the entire public school community?
	Over 5,700 American children have undergone gender-affirming body mutilations between 2019 and 2023.
	2019, 2020, that was under Trump.
	Two years of Trump, three years of Biden.
	Irreversible, permanent, body-altering operations like mastectomies and genital reassignment.
	Let's talk about that.
	mutilation. Children who aren't even old enough to make responsible decisions
	about basic aspects of life. They can't vote, they can't join the military, they
	can't go to school, field trip without parental consent, but they're being
	thrust into life-altering surgeries by ideologically driven medical system. They
	just had some detransitioners kicked out of the Pediatricians of America
	conference. No, we don't want to hear it. Get out. I'm gonna make money mutilating
	children, sterilizing children, and all the rest of this.
	Destroying their lives.
	A lot of these kids, you know, the genital surgery is so crippling.
	A lot of them have committed suicide.
	What's even more terrifying is the fact these children are being used as guinea pigs in what can only be described as a perverse, unholy sex experiment.
	It's everywhere and it's scary.
	But, you know, the evangelicals are fighting over Trump and Lala, aren't they?
	Right? The Billy Graham Foundation is not concerned about this.
	It's concerned about getting Trump in the White House.
	How pathetic these institutional Christians are.
	The scriptures are very clear that the binary distinction between male and female is not arbitrary, but foundational to God's design.
	Yet, in rebellion against God, we now see a nation willing to amputate the sex organs of five-year-olds in a futile attempt to erase God's design.
	The entire notion that minors who can't consent to vote or drive should be given the authority to decide to butcher their own bodies is pure madness.
	Where is the church on this?
	The ERLC holds conferences about racism and white supremacy, but they can't be bothered to hold a conference about facing the greatest evil according to scriptures that hit our planet since the days of Noah.
	Where is the Passion Youth Conference that John Piper loves to talk about?
	Where is the CRU? They used to be called Crusade for Christ, but now we can't talk about Christ or Crusade, so they call it CRU. These children are not being affirmed in any meaningful sense.
	They're being sacrificed on the altar of political correctness and adult sexual fetishes.
	But, you know, let's fight for Trump or la la.
	This is why we have the kind of society that we do.
	This is more than a cultural issue.
	This is a spiritual battle.
	And the churches and these institutions are just as AWOL as FEMA.
