As the clock strikes 13, it's Thursday, the 24th of October.
Dear of our Lord, 2024.
Well, today we're going to begin by taking a quick look at politics as the predictions of James Carville come into view, along with other people.
I'll tell you what I think is how this is breaking, and of course, if we look at James Carville...
He's kind of the equivalent of Jim Cramer when it comes to politics.
You can kind of use him as a contraindicator.
But we're going to take a look at that.
We're also going to take a look at technology.
You know, money is no object when it comes to...
Climate fear, right?
Because we call atmosphere.
They're now talking about grinding up diamonds and putting them into the atmosphere.
I mean, you know, spare no cost.
Who cares if it costs trillions of dollars?
We're all going to die if we don't do it.
We'll be right back.
Stay with us.
James Carville, three reasons I'm certain Lala Harris will win.
Well, that means that you can bet that Trump is going to win.
This guy, like I said, is the Jim Cramer of politics.
Forget all of these op-ed pieces that you see places, all of these polls and everything.
I think the real harbinger is to watch with the people who are connected, the people who know how they're moving around.
And with the exception of...
Bill Gates, who is a dyed-in-the-wool depopulationist, pretty much everybody is switching towards Trump.
So I think, you know, the rats are jumping on board the ship as you start to look at this stuff.
So he says, can Kamala Harris win this thing?
He says, all these people are asking me, can she win it?
Are we going to be okay?
And of course, they do have reason to be concerned.
Here's one example of it.
A presidential song for anyone.
One Nation Under a Groove by Funkadelic.
One Nation Under a Groove.
Getting down just for the funk of it.
Can I get it on the...
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Why does she have this vibe?
She always seems to be drunk.
You know, the only time I ever saw women like that was when I was in a band.
You know, I didn't hang around typically places where people were drinking.
She got that drunk vibe about her.
I can't sing either.
She comes across as like a six-year-old, not 60s.
So, why would they be concerned?
They have nothing to be concerned about.
Here's another example here of Lala.
So you know how those lids on the Starbucks cups, they're white, right?
And so if you wear lipstick...
They get all over the lid, and so then I find myself in meetings if I'm the only woman, and that's kind of it.
So I keep taking the lid off and having my cup out so that I don't have that big lipstick mark on the lid.
So I said, can we do something about the color of the land?
So that was that conversation.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Yeah, I guess we could say, kind of like Seinfeld, this is a campaign about nothing.
It's just about nothing.
Of course, you know, the real problem with those lids, they're white.
If they weren't white, we wouldn't have this problem.
We need some lids of color.
Well, he gives us three reasons, Carville does, as to why he thinks that this is going to go their way.
He says, Mr.
Trump is a repeat electoral loser.
This time it'll be no different.
And he points out that in 2018, because usually in the midterms, it always goes to the other, you know, have a shift to the party that is, you know, when you've got a newly elected president, it shifts to the opposite party.
But that shift in 2018 was, he said, a landslide for Democrats in a midterm election, the biggest one since Watergate.
And then when you look at 2020, he lost that.
Yeah, I think he did.
I know a lot of people don't believe it.
The same people that are urging you to go vote again don't believe the outcome.
Whatever.
And then in 2022, Another one, right?
And you look at the people that he picked and things like that.
Of course, he likes to say, well, yeah, he signed on to all these people that were sure if our winners and as if he had anything to do with that.
No, the people that he picked, people like Blake Masters and people like Dr.
Oz handed the Democrats the Senate.
But so it makes the case that Trump is a repeat electoral loser.
Well, what about Lala?
She didn't even stand for election, right?
I mean, this is somebody who, when she ran for president in 2020, she was consistently polling way less than 1%.
She went to the debates, and she couldn't handle the debates.
She dropped out before the first caucus in Iowa.
And so she didn't get any votes at all when she ran for president in 2020.
And she didn't get any votes this time either.
She was selected and put in place.
Then he goes on to say money matters and Mrs.
Harris has it in droves.
Well, she does have more billionaires funding her than even Trump does.
And we should all be concerned about the fact that elections always are and always have been an advanced auction of stolen goods, as was said a century ago.
But nothing changes with that.
And of course, when Trump won in 2016...
He spent less money than Hillary Clinton did.
As I pointed out the other day, she wound up raising something like $600 and something million and she spent about $400 and something million.
So I don't know where that other $200 million went.
What do you think?
Anyway, and then his third big reason is it's just a feeling.
This is why I say he's the Jim Cramer of politics.
My final reason is 100% emotional.
They are constantly told that America's too divided, too hopelessly stricken by tribalism.
See, that's why I think Trump will be selected.
I think they want that division.
I think they want that tribalism, and nobody feeds it.
I mean, that's his intuition right there.
To me, that is the number one reason why I think that they will pick Trump.
For the tribalism, for the division, and because he will reassure the people who would normally have the safeties off of their weapons that everything's going to be just fine.
He's in charge.
He's 40 chests.
And no matter how bad it looks, you'll have the MAGA media telling everybody, it's 40 chests.
Don't worry.
You can take the shot.
It's just sugar water, right?
So one of the people who was instrumental in taking out Lala, probably the most instrumental person, Was Tulsi Gabbard and she's just announced her switch to the GOP. As I've said many times, the GOP has become the Democrat Party of my youth.
These people...
Think about this.
We got...
We're the big heavy hitters in the Republican Party on the presidential side.
Well, we got Trump, Democrat.
Ran as a Democrat.
First time he ran.
Always was a New York Democrat.
Friend of the Clintons.
Friend of Epstein.
Anyway, we got Trump.
We got RFK Jr.
We got Musk, who was always a Democrat.
We got Gabbard.
Democrat?
World Economic Forum young leader?
I tell you, it's a good thing that our hope does not depend on the presidency, isn't it?
Because there isn't anything to hope for there.
It's a pretty hopeless situation there.
So, you know, when we go back and look at Tulsi Gabbard, she was a pro-life Democrat when she first started RUN. She realized that wasn't going to get her anywhere, so she became pro-infanticide.
And she was rewarded for that deal with the devil to become a congresswoman from heavily Democrat Hawaii.
So, so much for her principles.
Meanwhile, this is another indication that I think people behind the scenes understand the selection is in for Trump.
The LA Times owner has blocked endorsement of Harris.
Ooh.
So most of the people there in the LA Times are Democrats, and they really want to endorse her.
But the owner, the owner says no.
You think this guy's connected?
He is one of the most significant insiders, and he's going to have intel as to who the selection is.
You know, why would he block this?
Why would he go against all of his staff?
For two decades...
They've done Democrat endorsements in that heavily Democrat state, heavily Democrat city of L.A. His executive editor is Terry Tang.
His name, the owner, and I had not noticed this before, so I looked to see, who is this guy?
The owner of the L.A. Times is a guy named Patrick Soon Xiong.
Where's this guy coming from?
Well, it turns out that he is Asian.
His parents are Chinese.
They immigrated to South Africa way back when China was invaded by Japan.
They left the country and they went to South Africa.
His background, how he became so rich, is he's a biotech big pharma bro.
Yeah.
And he's also become a venture capitalist for artificial intelligence.
And he is the owner of Of the LA Times.
Now, Carrie Tang is his executive editor.
She is also Chinese.
Taiwanese, specifically, but both of them are Chinese.
His decision to block the endorsement of Harris will be seen as a major blow to the vice president, as the LA Times is the most prominent newspaper in her home state of California.
Now, it may be that he is doing this.
Another possibility is not that he's got the inside...
Scoop that fixes on for Trump.
But I think that there is, and Newt Gingrich just talked about this, he said he thinks that there's a real push to try to undermine her.
Biden doesn't like her.
The Obamas, I think, see her as somebody they'd like to get out of the way to clear the path for Michelle Obama to run the next time.
Because that'll be an open presidency, right?
And so, you know, whoever runs in four years from now, assuming we have a country, if the globalists aren't able to pull off their 2030 agenda, we'd still have a country.
And if that's the case, they want to have Michelle Obama running again.
And I think that's the case with a lot of them.
So that may be what is behind this.
Then we also had the book drop from John Kelly, who says that Trump is a fascist and believes that fascism would work better than the American democracy.
Well, it's no question that John Kelly despises Trump.
And part of this is, when you look at it, what does it tell you about Trump the man?
That everybody who worked for him despises him.
All these people that he put in his cabinet, I mean, they have come out hardcore.
Pushed him to the other side.
Pushed Matt Drudge to the other side.
All the rest of the time.
I mean, it's the people who know him.
Really don't like him.
And so, this is not in defense of Trump.
Because I do think that he is authoritarian.
But if you look at his definition of fascism, I think it's interesting.
In an interview with Anderson Cooper, John Kelly said, well, looking at the definition of fascism, he says, why do you call him a fascist?
Well, if you look at the definition of fascism, it is a far-right, authoritarian, ultra-nationalist political ideology, and a movement that's characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, and belief in a natural social hierarchy.
Okay, so nothing in there about the economic side of fascism, and of course, we know the economic side of fascism, Was retaining private control until the very end, as Adolf Hitler said.
He said, Stalin's got it wrong.
You know, the communists want to come in and take ownership of everything.
He said, they don't know how to run anything.
So he said, I'll let the people who know how to run it, run it.
They'll run it for my purposes.
And then I'll take it over at the end when I get everything that I want.
And it was far right, and it was nationalist.
And on the communist side, they pushed the idea of internationalism.
And so those two things are a little bit different, okay, between them.
It's a distinction.
But when you talk about right or left, when you talk about ultra-nationalist or ultra-internationalist, because remember their anthem was the international, right?
When you talk about that, that's just the way they sell it.
Both of them govern exactly the same.
They are both authoritarian, both totalitarian, whether you're talking about communism or fascism.
And to stress that, I would just say the movement is characterized by...
Now, think about this.
Does this apply to the communists as well as to the fascists?
Does it apply to Lala and Biden?
Dictatorial leadership?
Yeah, look at the executive orders.
Every one of these presidents, every time, is doing more and more executive orders.
And, of course, he kept all these horrific executive orders from Trump, who was very authoritarian with his executive orders, and added more of them to him.
How about centralized autocracy?
Yeah, that applies to both of them as well.
Militarism.
Yes, yes.
We kept all those seven wars that the left put in.
Right?
And then we wound up in Syria somehow as well, right?
People don't want to talk about that from Trump.
And then forcible suppression of opposition.
Oh, you can chalk that one up in spades to Biden and Lala, can't you?
And then belief in a social hierarchy that they have for themselves.
You see, there's not really much difference between the two of them.
They can use these labels and these names, you know, fascist, communist, or whatever.
And they are all totalitarian.
Now, we also have major election forecasters.
Trump says Trump will win on November the 5th.
One of the models shows an electoral land side.
This is coming from the New American.
Just remember, remember the 5th of November.
Gunpowder, treason, and plot.
Nate Silver says, Decision Desk HQ The Hill and Qantas Insights forecast, along with real clear politics average polls, all show Trump a likely winner.
The most lopsided forecast came from Qantas Insights, which predicts that it is going to be a landslide in the Electoral College, not just that there will be a win.
Related to all this, we see the alliance between the Labor Party in the UK and Lala Harris.
Now, how is this allowed to continue on?
Why is this not foreign interference?
And, of course, this goes back a long ways.
If you go back and you look at 2016, there was, as I talked about, the London-Langley Axis.
Brennan, people like Gina Haspel, who Trump eventually put in as, you know, when he became president, he put her in charge of the CIA. Now, the first couple of years, he had Pompeo in as the supposed head.
But she was number two, and she was running the whole thing.
And then they just moved Pompeo to another spot.
Well, became public about the fact that she was running everything.
The woman who lied us into the Iraq War with lies about weapons of mass destruction based on torture.
She covered up the torture.
She destroyed the evidence.
Trump made her head of the CIA. But there was this big conspiracy, all the stuff about Russiagate and everything is tied to London.
So the Democrats have been allied with London.
They've been allied with Ukraine for quite some time.
This is war.
Musk responds to a bombshell kill Twitter plot.
Involving UK advisors to Lala Harris.
You see, it's not just that they are sending over workers paid for by the Labor Party.
But now internal documents have been released that show that this is the number one thing on their agenda was to kill Twitter.
The UK's Center for Countering Digital Hate.
This is a disinformation operation from the British government.
And so he retweeted the report and said this is war.
Internal documents from the Center for Countering Digital Hate.
His founder is a British political operative, Morgan McSweeney.
Boy, this guy sounds like a mustache twirler, doesn't he?
Morgan McSweeney.
He says it shows the group.
Plans in writing.
They've got it in writing.
This is not, well, somebody told somebody and I have it with a good source.
No, they've got the document.
It shows in writing they want to kill Musk's Twitter.
That's what they said.
So the documents obtained by the Disinformation Chronicle and Racket show that this disinformation organization from the UK is hyper-focused on Musk.
Kilmusk's Twitter is the first item on the template of its monthly agenda.
And again, it is a disinformation ally of Keir Starmer's Labor Party.
It adds to the legal questions about its non-profit status, non-profit tax-exempt status in the U.S., Because according to the IRS, this organization could lose its special tax status if, quote, a substantial part of its activities is attempting to influence legislation.
Yet CCDH's third item on its annual priority list is to trigger EU and UK regulatory action.
I don't know what the number two is.
First one is kill Twitter.
The next one is to trigger regulatory action to suppress free speech.
And so...
They should not be able to have tax-exempt status as a 501c3 organization.
In the last two months, Washington Post and Politico, among others, have run a series of features about British advisors from Labor Together.
That's their campaign thing.
And how they want to rescue the distressed political damsel that is the Harris-Waltz campaign.
See, they see it's got a lot of problems as well.
I mean, if she's doing so well, and she's got so much money, and she's so popular as the mainstream media is putting it out there, why does the Labor Party have to help her?
Politico casts McSweeney as the election mastermind who helped Keir Starmer defeat leftist Jeremy Corbyn to become head of the Labor Party.
No political operative in the Western Hemisphere is more in demand than Starmer's Rasputin.
Regularly hailed as a genius, Much like Rove, the McSweeney reputation is built more on mudslinging and character assassination than insight into voter needs.
As a matter of fact, whether we look at the right or whether we look at the left, it's the same thing.
Michael Keaton said, you know, they don't care what you want.
They're laughing at you.
Well, this mustache twirler McSweeney certainly is.
It's all about character assassination and mudslinging.
Does that kind of sound like Trump and Lala both do that kind of thing?
They all do it.
Karl Rove, known for doing that.
But here's what Michael Keaton said.
Michael Keaton Hey, hi, Michael.
You know, for some of you folks who, guys mostly, I guess, who are thinking about attending a rally with Musk and Trump, They don't really respect you.
They laugh at you behind your back.
They think you're stupid.
They don't want to hang out with you.
They have nothing in common with you.
They're not your bros.
And I'm telling you, when Trump years ago, I guess, said, I could shoot somebody on Fifth Avenue and they'd still vote for me, basically what he's saying in parentheses is, these people are so stupid, they're so dumb, they'd still vote for me.
They have no respect for you.
Trust me.
Yeah, well, you know...
The people, my people are so smart.
And you know what else they say about my people?
The polls.
They say, I have the most loyal people.
Did you ever see that?
Where I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn't lose any voters, okay?
It's like incredible.
Well, you know, Keaton's right about that on the Trump side.
Well, he doesn't see as he thinks that Lala cares about him.
He is a comedian, you know, initially.
And that is funny to think that either side cares about you.
That is laughable.
Yeah, he's so close.
He's so close to getting there.
What's the matter?
And again, so many of the people on the right are so close to getting it as well.
So the CCDH organization, this disinformation propaganda censorship organization of the UK, Was also a character in the Twitter files, notably organizing a letter from state attorneys general to the platform seeking to ban the so-called disinformation dozen over telling people the truth about COVID. And, of course, that included people like RFK Jr.
And, you know, it is the disinformation dozen, the people who will actually tell you the truth.
About what is happening.
And I guess, you know, the number one reason they want to kill Twitter is because he's exposed what they're all about.
So, in an interview with Just the News, which is going to be a Trump organization, you know, again, I can't find anybody who's even-handed with this stuff.
Everybody has turned into cheerleaders one way or the other.
Sad.
Trump said he is open to reparations fund for victims of crimes committed by illegals.
Well, there you go.
There's his reparations.
How about that?
Now, that is, the reason he says reparations instead of restitution is because the reparations are going to be handed out by the government.
It's not going to be restitution that is done by the criminals who committed the crime.
And I think that is an important thing that is really missing from our so-called justice system.
Justice is a key thing that is missing from our justice system.
But other than justice, what is missing is a sense of restitution.
You know, people look at Mosaic Law, Law of Moses, eye for an eye, tooth for tooth, that's barbaric.
It's like, no, if you look at all of the other legal codes at the time, it was, first of all, it was moderating it.
It's like, well, okay, somebody, you're not going to do more damage to somebody than they did to you, so it's about keeping a sense of proportionality.
But the other part of it was that it had restitution, which meant that it was far better than our system.
You know, if you harm somebody's livestock or something like that, you have to pay them back.
And if it's done willfully, maybe you pay them back more than just the livestock.
But you pay them back.
You don't pay the state in terms of a fine.
And the state was not going to lock you up in a prison.
They didn't build prisons then, right?
They weren't going to put you in a jail cell and have the people that you victimized pay for your upkeep.
No, that wasn't.
That's not just, is it?
And so, we can talk about reparations, and it isn't that he's using this word just to troll Lala over the racist reparations that she wants.
And again, if you're going to have people pay for the sins of their ancestors centuries ago, then of all people, she should pay the most.
And now she's got billions of dollars.
So why doesn't she put up a fund?
Because her father bragged about the fact that they owned slaves.
Not about skin color.
How many white people, as I've said before, how many white people immigrated to this country, let's say in the immigration waves of the late 1800s and early 20th century from Europe?
They never owned slaves.
But her family did, and they're proud of it.
So why doesn't she pay reparations?
Well, after spending hours comforting families victimized by murder, rape, and other border crimes, the former president told Just the News that he's also open to creating a federal compensation fund for Americans harmed by illegal immigrants let into the country.
So, they make it sound like this is coming from him.
And yet it isn't.
It's coming from them.
On Tuesday, asked Tuesday whether he was open to implementing the concept of voters on November 5th return to the White House.
Trump answered without ambiguity, I am.
So they ask him, would you be open to doing this, this, and this, and this?
Yes, I am.
Oh, well, look at this.
It's like it's his idea or something.
It's not his idea.
He's just telling them what they want to hear.
He doesn't care about you or your problems.
And this is just the news, putting this out there as, oh, look, he wants to do it.
No, he doesn't want to.
He just says, sure, yeah, of course I'll do it.
It's an empty promise.
Politicians make them all the time.
And that's where the clip from Keaton really should come in.
They laugh at you.
They think you're stupid, and so does just the news.
This is something that, A, was his idea, and B, he's going to actually do something about it.
It wasn't even his idea.
But I do think that we ought to make criminals pay.
And I don't think they ought to pay the government.
They ought to pay the victims.
What's the matter with our system of justice?
Again, there should never be any fines to this.
When you look at these gangs, for example, These gangs that have been created and weaponized by drug prohibition.
The failed war on drugs has gone on now for more than 50 years and has only given us more dangerous and concentrated forms of the drugs that it was supposed to eliminate.
By the way, I don't know if I talked about this or not, but somebody sent me an email and said, well, you know, what about gold?
You know, you say gold, but...
Can't they outlaw and confiscate that?
Well, you know, people didn't turn in their gold.
I mean, people did turn in their gold.
They didn't send SWAT teams around, kicking doors down and getting gold.
I mean, you might look at that and say, well, maybe they would do that today, the kind of government we have today.
Nevertheless, how has that worked out for drugs?
Has drug prohibition stopped drug use?
You think gold prohibition is going to stop the use of gold?
Yeah, they'll go around.
When they find it, they'll steal it or whatever.
But, you know, not...
I don't know.
Does it have a smell to it like the drugs do?
Can they train dogs to smell gold?
I don't think so.
It's going to be kind of harder for them to do something about that.
But you look at the gangs.
That's another aspect.
First of all, you know, you look at prohibition.
What does it do?
It gives you a more intense form of whatever it was that you were trying to prohibit.
That happened under alcohol prohibition as well.
Second thing is it corrupts law enforcement and government officials, the justice system, everything is totally corrupted by it.
We've had that in spades.
But the other thing is that it creates these gangs.
We've had Al Capone, stuff during alcohol prohibition.
Look at all the drug gangs.
You know, these MS-13, this Venezuelan prison gang.
These are all people running drugs.
Well, when the government catches them, right, what does the government do?
Well, it confiscates, I don't know, millions, hundreds of millions, billions, I don't know how much money he had, from El Chapo.
By the way, it doesn't do anything to HSBC, Hong Kong, Shanghai Bank, right?
It doesn't do anything to them.
They had set up The private window just for the Sinaloa drug cartel because they had so much cash to count.
They were like, nobody else can get any business done.
Give them their own window so they can bring in all the drug money and we can count it for them, you know?
And so nothing was done to HSBC. But they confiscated all the assets of El Chapo.
And they confiscated them.
They kept them.
They didn't distribute it to people who were victimized by gang violence, people who were harmed by the drugs that they sold.
No, the government keeps it.
There's no restitution in our system.
There ought to be, but there isn't.
And you have, in the name of the war on drugs, they go around and they confiscate without even charging people with a crime, let alone finding them guilty.
Civil asset forfeiture is steal your car, your home, your cash.
Do they give that to him?
No, they keep it themselves.
You see, what we have here, the government and the police departments and law enforcement have become, with the war on drugs, they have become just another gang.
They have uniforms and titles and weapons.
They're just another gang out there stealing from you.
That's what the government is in general, just another gang.
So this idea that you're going to get reparations, For victims of crimes committed by illegals.
Trump wants to talk about that.
Hey Trump, what about reparations or restitution to the people who have been harmed by the vaccine that you're so proud of?
You want to do something about that?
He doesn't care a thing about you folks.
Your life is cheap.
And he could shoot a million of you to death with his vaccine.
And you'd still vote for him, wouldn't you?
Because you're doing it right now.
It's just amazing.
This world we live in.
To me, I look at that, and that, to me, is even more strange than the trannies out there, right?
I mean, all this, you know, sexual obsession and possession, demonic possession, I understand that.
I just can't understand the cognitive dissonance of people who know what these vaccines are about, And the dishonesty and the grifting of people like Wayne Allen Root and Alex Jones and many of his others who say, Trump, stop talking.
Stop taking credit for the vaccine.
We all know how bad it is now.
Stop talking about it.
And that went on for years.
He kept talking about it.
And he'll still do it if somebody brings a subject up.
He'll still brag about the vaccine they used to kill people.
No reparations for that drug.
No reparations for that crime.
The crime committed by the federal government against its own people.
This is why I cannot support him or any of these people.
Before we go to break, Karius Rex, thank you for the tip.
I appreciate that.
And Marky Mark in New Jersey, Dave, IIRC at one point in 2020, Lala polled well.
At one point, she was at 12-15%.
What did her end was a CNN debate where Gabbard flamed her.
After that, Lala's campaign died out.
Well, yeah, I mean, it died out because she was less than 1% at that point, but she might have been up high.
You know, again, I don't really care about polls.
They can rig these polls any way they want, but...
That may be true.
I didn't go back and look at that.
I'm not saying that.
It probably is true.
I imagine you got that right.
Still, she had tanked so badly, and I think it was Tulsi Gabbard, that she had tanked so badly that she had been exposed as a fraud.
And she's now been exposed as a fraud by Brett Baer and many others, right?
And everybody knows that there's nothing there.
A campaign about nothing.
It's a Seinfeld campaign.
And she can try to laugh everything off, but there's absolutely nothing of any substance there.
I think everyone understands that.
And I think there's a lot of people in the Democrat Party that want to get her out of the way because they want to have an open election in four years.
And, you know, Michelle Obama would definitely like to be the first female president.
So I think that Obama and all of his influence in the Democrat Party is kind of pulling back.
M. Sellers.
I had a grassroots nonprofit knock on my door yesterday.
It wasn't MAGA. Nicest guy going door-to-door confirming our votes for the locals running.
That's the way it should be.
Good, good.
That is the way that...
That's what we should focus on.
That's really good.
And I bet, if it's a grassroots non-profit, you can let me know.
I bet that was focused on an issue.
Or maybe a couple of issues, right?
At the grassroots, that's what people are about.
And not necessarily about the party.
Well, we're going to take a quick break and we will be right back.
We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
you - Making sense.
Common again.
You're listening to The David Knight Show.
Diamonds are forever They are all I need to please me They can stimulate to tease me Yeah, well, they're now talking about putting diamonds in the atmosphere in order to save the climate.
And they're forever.
They're going to stay up there forever, right?
Scientists propose shooting $200 trillion.
$200 trillion.
See, this is how you own nothing.
Just turn everything over to the people who are going to save us.
The people who are selling atmosphere, F-E-A-R. Just turn everything over to them, and it'll all be okay.
Give them everything.
Give them all your money, $200 trillion worth of pulverized diamonds into the atmosphere.
Well, this is the basis, of course, yet again, of a climate model.
And they said, you know, as they look at this stratospheric aerosol delivery, they evaluate a lot of different things, but here's a newsflash for them, right?
We've been told that we have to turn over everything to our overlords because of carbon.
Carbon.
What is a diamond?
Hmm.
I don't know.
And, you know, look, they don't know the difference between carbon, between carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide.
And they don't even bother anymore.
They just say carbon, carbon, carbon.
You got a carbon tax.
Can I pay my carbon tax on diamonds?
Yeah.
They'd let you.
Because it's all about whatever they can get from you.
Can they distinguish a gas from a solid, even?
I don't know.
But, you know, this is treated as an aerosol because of the other things that they were talking about.
It's not a gas, but it's an aerosol.
The other things were solid substances that pulverized and injected that they modeled.
Spending decades grinding up something, approaching a quadrillion dollars worth of diamonds into dust, and then dispersing them into the atmosphere.
Is this another grift from De Beers?
You know, they're in a lot of problems here.
They just have this monopoly on diamonds.
And now people are making synthetic diamonds, not just something like cubic zirconium.
And so they kind of lost their monopoly on that.
Maybe this would be some way they can get back into the business in a big way.
So, contrary to what you might think, such an audacious idea wasn't conceived by some science fiction writer huffing fumes, but by researchers performing rigorous scientific exercise.
No, I think the first thing is true.
Sci-fi writers.
Sci-fi writers.
That's what these climate scientists are.
They're sci-fi writers.
They're writing research grants.
And it's pure science fiction.
And they're getting paid tremendously well, unfortunately.
And then the breathless fear.
The value lies in seriously weighing all of our options as we stare down the barrel of near certain climate doom.
That's right.
The sky is falling.
And I really love that.
They put atmospheres.
Atmosphere.
That's the way we ought to always talk about climate change anymore.
It should always be atmos-fear.
That's really good.
I'm going to keep that.
Sure, it would take 45 years of non-stop injections, and it would cost nearly $200 trillion, all the wealth on Earth nearly, right?
But the intervention would be enough to keep us just under the 2.7 degree warming threshold.
Well, they said we can't do that.
They said they evaluated not just diamonds, but sulfur and a lot of other aerosols in a 3D climate model.
Wow, that's impressive.
You mean you did this on a computer?
Oh, wow.
And you did 3D? Can you do 4D modeling?
Can we get you to...
Well, actually, the vaccines are now being modeled...
On computers, they call it in silico.
You know, they talk about in vitro, that's in a glass, right?
In vivo, that's when they put it in a body, and they do in silico.
Well, that's a computer model, and now they're taking it another step.
We're just going to have artificial intelligence design your next vaccines.
Forget about Skynet having to create Terminator-style robots.
They could just kill us with their designer vaccines.
That's what the people running this whole thing is.
Anyway, they got a 3D climate model, so you should be very impressed.
Are you impressed?
I'm not.
I think it is, you know, when they look at this, they said, well, you know, it's $200 trillion, but it would be just enough.
You know, no price that we pay.
It's too much.
They're not going to pay it.
We will pay it.
No price that we pay is too great to save us from their atmosphere.
Or the atmosphere, the fear if we've caught the fear from them.
So it's 3D models and have simulated effects of using diamond sulfur and many other aerosols.
Paying particular attention to how they coagulated or clumped together and how long they lasted in the atmosphere.
A process known as sedimentation.
So, too much coagulation causes heat to be trapped in the spots.
Particles need to remain diffuse for the whole plan not to backfire.
That's according to their assumptions in their computer model, right?
Is it right?
We don't know.
They haven't done any real science on it.
A computer model is not real science.
Real science is you've got a theory and you go out and you measure it or you reproduce this or whatever.
It needs to be reproducible.
It needs to be measurable.
These are computer models.
As a matter of fact, the computer model that was used to shut everybody down by Trump and Fauci...
From the Imperial College of London, you couldn't reproduce it.
Even its own model was not reproducible.
How is that science, right?
It wasn't based on anything that they had observed or measured.
And as the University of Edinburgh pointed out, when they ran this Imperial College of London simulation with the same inputs, every time they ran it with the same inputs, they'd get a different answer.
Well, that's not a scientific model.
Nothing scientific about it.
It's not measurable.
It's not reproducible.
The pulverized diamonds really shined.
They did not clump.
They also stayed airborne, with the added bonus of resisting being turned into acid rain.
Sulfur, on the other hand, was the second worst of all the candidates because it tended to clump a lot.
But sulfur is basically free, so that's what they're going to use.
It clumps, turns into acid rain, doesn't stay airborne very long.
But let's use it anyway.
You know, this could ignite the atmosphere and kill us all.
Let's do it anyway.
This war with Russia, as they said in 2022, there's about a 50% chance that it'll set off a worldwide nuclear war.
Let's do it anyway.
Sulfur remains our best option, even though it wasn't the best option.
It was the second worst option.
We can readily examine the effects on a large scale by looking at volcanic eruptions.
Oh, you mean natural weather?
Mm-hmm.
Yeah, if it's a land volcano, you get the sulfur that's put up there and stays up there for a while, cools things off.
On the other hand, if it is an underwater volcano, it puts up water, and that Hunga Tonga thing was underwater, and And it increased by 15% the water vapor, and the water vapor is like 99% of the atmosphere.
CO2 is only 0.4%.
So you take a 15% increase in greenhouse gases, and so we had a small increase in temperature.
So what?
We're all just fine.
It's interesting to explore these other materials, they said, but if you ask me what's going to get deployed, it's going to be sulfate.
Well, what about aluminum and the other things?
Aluminum, barium, things like that, they're already injecting up there with chemtrails.
Oh, they don't mention that.
But we're continuing to chip away at the huge question marks around the deliberately tampering with our climate.
They have a group called the Alliance for Just Deliberation on Solar Geoengineering.
Just.
Whenever you see that there, right?
Like social justice.
But, you know, when they look at this and they say, well, all of this, is this a tacit admission that the sun is responsible for our climate?
Yeah, I think so.
And yet they are still obsessed with CO2. This is why I had our guest on the other day, because he's talking about the benefits of CO2. I mean, he even thinks that it's warming.
He doesn't think that it's man-made, but he thinks the climate is warming.
But he said, hey, that's fine.
You know, CO2 is great.
But they are determined to get rid of it.
And so they have come up with a substance out of the University of California in Berkeley.
Half a pound of this powder can remove as much CO2 from the air as a tree.
So the problem is the tree does other things.
You know...
The tree provides shade, but most importantly, these plants absorb CO2 and give off oxygen.
It was a system that was designed by somebody much wiser than the Berkeley scientists designed by God.
And so, you know, when you get more CO2, the plants grow more, and they grow faster, and then they release more oxygen, and it's a self-regulating system there.
Symbiotic.
But no, if you put out this stuff, what it's going to do is just take CO2 out of the air.
And we need CO2. We need CO2 in the atmosphere.
What is really concerning is how hell-bent these atmosphere people are in terms of trying to geoengineer CO2 out of the air.
We need that 0.04%.
But they're talking about this powder.
The powder could be deployed to the kinds of large-scale direct air capture plants that are starting to come online to reduce the amount of carbon in the atmosphere.
Again, is this diamonds?
Is it CO2? Is it CO? Carbon monoxide?
Keeping the concentration of atmospheric carbon dioxide below 450 parts per million is necessary to limit global warming to 2 degrees.
And you know that?
You so wise in the ways of science.
You know that exactly how?
Oh, by your computer models.
That's right.
By superstition and ignorance.
That's how you know that.
That is not science.
Even if we stop emitting CO2, we still need to take it out of the air.
And we don't have any other options but to take it out of the air.
This is crazy.
This is crazy.
But you can see this coming as Bill Gates turned on trees.
Oh, trees are bad.
First you paid me to plant trees.
Now we've got to get rid of the trees.
We've got to cut them down.
They're opening a door into a new family of approaches, said one of these people.
No, what they're doing is they're opening Pandora's box.
The person, I thought this was interesting.
The person who put this together at the University of California, Berkeley, a chemist working on his Ph.D., The guy's name was Zuzu.
It was actually Z-I-H-U-I. So the first name may be Zahui Zhu, but I just call him Zuzu.
Because, you know, every time they grab some CO2, an angel gets his wings.
Did you know that?
These people.
You just need to laugh at them.
Ridicule is the most effective weapon, folks.
And these people, what they're telling us is laughable.
And it's time for us to start laughing at them.
The Pentagon, meanwhile, wants to flood social media with fake AI people.
Well, why not?
Because, you know, the internet was designed by the Pentagon, right?
DARPA, within the Pentagon, the Defense Advanced Research Projects people.
DARPA, a psychologist in the 1960s, J.C.R. Licklider.
The Intergalactic Computer Network, they shortened it up to internet, and it became practical in the 1990s, and then all the spook organizations jumped into it.
CIA even created its own public venture capital firm.
But if you look at the other venture capital firms, they had CIA and NSA people all over the boards of those venture capital firms.
And so, the Pentagon created social media, so why wouldn't they want to flood it with fake AI people?
It's been a psyop from its inception.
And that's what this is all about.
It's about that, and it's about surveillance, and it's about propaganda, and it's about censorship.
And that's what AI is.
The internet was about that, and that was their ultimate goal with the internet.
And their ultimate goal with AI is surveillance, censorship, propaganda.
Pentagon-operated AI personas might be coming to an internet forum near you.
As The Intercept reports, a wish list put forward by the Joint Special Ops Command, JSOC, reveals the agency's interest in using generative AI to create fake online internet users.
Look, it's already there.
It's already there.
They pay people.
To be fakes.
They paid people to be bots, and now they can just weaponize this with artificial intelligence.
And this is why they are going to move heaven and earth to make sure they've got enough power requirements for AI. If that means that you don't have anything, if it means that they've got to temporarily ignore all of their atmosphere, they will do that.
Despite the U.S. government's persistent warnings that deepfakes and other AI-generated content will deepen the misinformation crisis and lead to a muddier information ecosystem for everyone, that's what they're doing.
See, it's deepfake for me, but not for thee.
These, by the way, they want to crack down like Gavin Newsom did.
They want to crack down on jokes and satire.
But they can do whatever they want.
They're serious about this stuff.
JSOC explains that it's seeking, quote, technologies that can generate convincing online personas for use on social media platforms, social networking sites, and other online content.
It shouldn't be hard to do something that's more believable and more loomer.
The solution, they said, should include facial and background imagery.
Hopefully not with that level of plastic surgery.
Facial and background video and audio layers.
JSOC wants their agents to use this capability to gather information from public online forums.
The internet...
Facebook, social media, I think, they've always been about creating a permanent record.
They've always been about total information awareness from the very beginning.
It's always been about creating a life log on you.
That was what they call their project, and then, you know, shut it down, Facebook opens up.
JSOC wants to provide its special ops teams with technology to create sophisticated, bespoke AI deepfakes, capable of convincing social media users that they're the real deal for the sake of information-gathering efforts.
It's all about surveillance, lies, and censorship.
Or you can say propaganda.
SPC. The DOD's continued focus on AI as a way to level up its digital surveillance and its influence efforts.
Propaganda is a noteworthy development in the approach to online intelligence operations by these people.
They have no problem with it.
The Intercept reported last year that the Pentagon expressed interest in deepfakes as a means of improving and expanding influence efforts run by the DOD's Special Operations Command.
In 2023, they wrote that they sought, quote, more encompassing, disruptive, unquote, technologies that were larger in scope than the tools they had then.
Just like Fauci said, we got to do it from the inside.
We got to do it with disruption.
And we got to do it iteratively.
And that's what they're doing.
And then this is a left-wing rag that doesn't really have too much problem with it.
So they say, well, you know, Project 2025, a blueprint for a Trump presidency penned by dozens of his close allies, salivates over the prospect of using AI to expand surveillance and spying efforts.
Again, it's amazing to me that they just keep going back to this Project 2025.
He's denounced it.
I think the Heritage Foundation fired some of the people, put that stuff together.
But I was not aware.
Maybe this is true.
Maybe it's not.
They're talking about using AI to expand surveillance and spying effort.
But of course, we all know that's what AI was for.
It doesn't matter whether the left or the right is in power, the Republicans or the Democrats.
It doesn't matter who's in power.
They're going to use AI to surveil you, to censor you, and to propagandize you.
This is another issue, another area where they're both in agreement.
Oh, you've got to do it to keep people safe.
You've got to do it for national security and on and on.
They said, well, this is going to lead to a society where it is increasingly difficult to ascertain truth from fiction and muddling the geopolitical sphere.
Do you not realize that we're there already?
Yeah, of course, we don't have that problem now, do we?
An intern has been fired by TikTok for sabotaging its AI model.
Now, they didn't give the name of the intern, but I think it was John Connor, or maybe Sarah Connor, I don't know.
Because as I said before, it's the AI models and this other stuff, not, you know, the Terminator robots, it's the AI models that are far more dangerous.
We need a John Connor.
We need a Sarah Connor who are going to blow up these AI models.
So, good for them.
This intern maliciously interfered with the model training tasks.
Good.
ByteDance, the owner of TikTok, fired an intern who apparently screwed with the company's AI projects.
The social media firm has confirmed that the unnamed commercial team intern, you don't have a first name made, the last name's just Connor, was terminated in August after he missed, so it's got to be he.
It's not Sarah.
It's got to be John.
I messed with the ByteDance AI models.
The intern involved maliciously, interfered with the model training.
We were putting together our own lies and he put in another set of lies.
How about that?
It is weapon.
It is a weapon.
They're weaponizing this AI against us, folks.
While the company did not say which AI project or projects the intern sabotaged, it could be one of at least 11 that it operates.
While the statement sounds plausible enough, commentators on ByteDance's posts are, as ours notes, calling BS on it.
They said the malicious code was used to deliberately sabotage the training for several months.
For several months, but said that it didn't harm anything else.
They said it just was several months of research in vain, but did not affect the main product line.
Well, keeping that in mind, take a look, and I'm going to jump over here to this thing, Karen.
This is in news.
And I want to go to the last article in here.
This is coming from Mark Andreessen.
Who is one of the big billionaire venture capitalists.
They call him a billionaire investor.
Well, he's a venture capitalist who pours money into these tech firms.
And he said that the fight over AI censorship is going to be the most important fight we have for the next 30 years.
You see, that's where this is.
That's all I say.
This is where John Connor and Sarah Connor need to focus.
The AI censorship wars, he said, will likely be the biggest political battle over the next three decades.
They asked him in the interview, what's your take on censorship?
Where are we culturally?
And what's AI's role going to be in either breaking us free of censorship or using that to really tighten things down?
And he said, well, I'm 100% pro-free speech.
He says, I don't want terrorist recruitment, you know, any more than anybody else.
But should people be able to talk about their politics online without getting censored?
100%.
Full range of expression, of course.
That's the American way, so I'm 100% on that.
He said, the internet companies ran into a variety of externally and self-inflicted situations where they ended up being a pervasive censorship machine for a long time.
That was fascism.
That was a public-private partnership, by the way.
The most dramatic change of that is Twitter before and after Elon bought it.
By the way, he said, we're a proud member of the syndicate that bought it along with Elon.
And so I am very thrilled about that.
Well, I thought that was interesting.
I didn't know that.
And I also didn't know that he was involved with Substack.
He said, we're also, by the way, the main outside investor in Substack.
Which I think has done a spectacular job navigating through this.
They're a small company, so when pressure is brought to bear on a small company, it can really have an impact.
But the team there has done a fantastic job navigating to a real freedom of speech position.
And as a consequence, Substack now has the full range of views on all kinds of topics in a really good way.
So the good news is we have two case studies, Twitter and Substack, where this has gone really well.
The other ones are more difficult, he said.
And I think the internet social media censorship wars were the preamble to the AI censorship wars.
I think we call it the clone wars.
Because that's what AI does.
AI just clones information from people.
We call this the clone wars.
The AI censorship wars.
He said, I think the AI censorship wars are going to be a thousand times more intense and a thousand times more important.
He said, AI is going to be, I think, the software layer that controls everything.
It's going to be the software layer that basically tells us everything.
It's going to be the software layer that teaches our kids.
It's going to be the software layer that we talk to every day.
And you know, as I think you know, there's already AI censorship.
This is where the war is, folks.
The spiritual war, the battle between good and evil, is not between Republican and Democrat, Trump and Lala.
It's not in Washington.
It's on the internet.
It's in your mind.
It's the battle between truth and lies.
And if we don't hammer this into our kids and grandkids, that they should not trust this information, we have to push really hard on critical thinking.
We have to push really hard on this tribalism.
We have to push really hard on, well, this is science, or this is coming from a computer, or this is coming from an authoritative source, so you should believe it.
If we don't push back on that, we are lost already.
And I'm not very optimistic when I look at the political system out there, when I look at the Christian leaders out there, I'm not very optimistic about this at all.
The AI censorship wars.
It wants to control everything.
It wants to be the software layer that tells us everything.
Do not trust it.
Do not trust it.
He said the AI censorship conflict is already underway.
The war, the information war around AI is already underway.
By the way, the same people who are pushing so hard for social media censorship now have shifted their focus to AI censorship.
A lot of the actual censors, and this is Mark Andreessen.
He's an insider in the venture capital, Silicon Valley.
He knows what's going on.
A lot of the actual censors themselves who used to work at companies like Twitter now work for the AI companies.
Just take those people that Elon Musk fired and put them into an AI company to train the AI. So there's been a direct transfer of lessons learned, and now it's being applied at a larger scale.
And I think this is going to be a giant fight.
I think it is just starting.
I believe it's possibly the most important political fight in the next 30 years.
It's even more important than that.
It is a spiritual war, folks.
It is a battle for your mind.
It is a battle for your soul and your spirit.
And you better pay attention.
You better take it seriously.
Meanwhile, Trump's Truth Social has got a lot of palace intrigue going.
You've got people who are talking to the New York Times.
At least three senior Truth Social employees have either been fired or pushed out as complaints about the firm's CEO, former GOP Congressman Devin Nunes, have reached ahead.
News of these departures comes after reports of a so-called whistleblower letter from staff disgruntled by Devin Nunes' leadership.
Truth, social employees were irked by the ex-Florida congressman's insistence on, listen to this, hiring foreign workers.
Yeah, how does that work?
You think he's Mr.
Maga, right?
The guy, this so-called conservative Republican, these people, they have absolutely no problem.
It's just like Mike Johnson, isn't he?
So Devin Nunes.
Hiring foreign workers, they said, which goes against Trump's America First ethos.
The New York Times insider sources have detailed a portrait of a firm in serious disarray amid a majority owner's attempt to return to the White House.
Sources said Nunes rarely shows up in person to the Truth Social headquarters in Sarasota, Florida, that the CEO has not formally addressed staff in two years.
Given that he was only appointed in late 2021 and that the company has only existed since February 2022, that's a pretty bad record.
I mean, they've been around for two years and he hasn't shown up for two years.
Is he here?
Well, he may be doing something.
He's just not addressing the employees.
The employees also allege that Nunes put too much stock in advice from unqualified members of the inner circle.
Truth Social denied the New York Times claims and said that it was part of the paper's jihad against the truth.
And against fact-based reporting.
Well, time will tell.
We're going to take a quick break and we'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
You're listening to The David Knight Show.
Bye.
Thank you.
We have a, this is an interesting headline here.
Grizzly 399.
Famed Yellowstone area bear killed in a Wyoming car accident.
I saw that and I said, I didn't know bears drive.
I didn't.
PBS dubbed this bear the most famous grizzly in the world.
It was not driving at the time.
It was instead hit by a car.
And so, we see a lot of, if it bleeds, it leads.
So, we have a passenger aboard a Royal Caribbean cruise full of Taylor Swift fans.
Falls overboard.
Now, so much about that.
Taylor Swift cruise.
What in the world is that?
And this is somebody who was 66.
But, of course, I'm not much of a surprise because Taylor Swift is always falling for the wrong guy, isn't she?
And then we have a suspected drunken driver arrested after passing Harris's motorcade the wrong way in Wisconsin.
Are they sure this wasn't Lala?
I just played for you this song.
She always seems like she's drunk.
Did they have her do a breath analyzer?
Did they have her walk the line?
55-year-old Milwaukee man in custody after he performed poorly on a field sobriety test.
I imagine he's not going to drive for a long time.
He made them feel threatened as well as being a drunk driver.
And then more serious news, we have the IRS unveiling new federal income tax brackets for 2025.
Now, they only gave one example, and that is the top bracket.
Single taxpayers making more than $636,000, and they raised that from the top bracket being $609,000.
So what they did was actually, at least for that bracket, they adjusted it about 4.5%.
And so I don't know.
You can look at that and make your guess as to whether or not that is...
Reasonable in terms of the kind of inflation that we've seen or not.
Meanwhile, this is even more ominous.
We have Janet Yellen saying that they're going to close the budget deficit with IRS enforcement.
Oh, wow.
This is going to be very expensive to us.
This is going to be like grinding up diamonds and injecting it into the atmosphere, isn't it?
Last year, the IRS estimated the size of the tax gap at $668 billion in the tax year of 2021.
And so at the very least, they're hoping that artificial intelligence and an army of IRS agents is going to be able to squeeze nearly a trillion dollars out of you.
Look, I don't know where they're coming up with this.
Of course, the difference is going to be between the annual deficit and the cumulative debt of $35 trillion.
But I mean, the deficit that they're running now is at the rate of a trillion dollars every 100 days.
And yet, if you look at it for the most recent period, it did that in about 20 days.
So, you know, when we're looking at this, sorry, did half a trillion in 20 days.
So, if you take that out to the 100-day level, we're looking at the deficit of 2.5 trillion every 100 days.
Not one trillion every 100 days.
So where did she come up with this 668 billion?
I mean, you know, they had a deficit of nearly that in just 20 days, in the last 20 days.
And the key thing is, and this is what we should be concerned about, but again, these candidates are not even talking about it.
You know, Lala copied Trump's Tax break for tips, right?
But that has absolutely nothing.
Nobody is going to do anything in terms of the 80,000 agents that are going to be hired and giving the IRS a budget that is seven times what its current budget is.
Current budget, $13 billion.
They're going to give it another $80 billion.
Okay.
It's insane.
And so that's what they're going to use.
So Yellen was asked by Fox in an interview about how the U.S. can persuade other countries to continue to buy U.S. debt.
And she said, by making sure that we stay on a sound fiscal path and one that doesn't require deficit reduction over the coming years.
Well, how are you going to reduce the deficit?
You're going to cut spending?
You're going to raise taxes?
No, I think we can just squeeze more out of people using artificial intelligence and an army of IRS agents.
This is really ominous.
I told you yesterday about the fact that, well, played the clip.
U.S. Congresswoman said the IRS is looking at everybody's bank accounts.
They don't have a search warrant to do it, but they're in there looking at everybody's bank accounts.
Well, that's just the preliminary.
They're getting in there to do it, then they're going to feed all that stuff into the artificial intelligences.
That kind of data mining and correlation and everything that artificial intelligence can do, that's what they're preparing to do.
She then went on to explain that the Biden-Harris administration has taken several steps aimed at lowering budget deficits by giving the IRS the resources that they need to close what is estimated over the next decade to be a $7 trillion tax gap.
That means that they're going to ruthlessly enforce another $7 trillion.
Very concerning, considering the fact that it was the IRS that created...
The legal fiction that there is a difference between laws passed by Congress and rules passed by the bureaucracy.
And if it's a rule, rather than if it's a law, they have to follow the Constitution.
But the unelected bureaucracy can create rules for which the Bill of Rights offer no protection.
That's what they want to tell everybody.
It's a lie.
But that's the prevaricating lie that they tell everybody.
So, with the IRS, you are guilty and you have to prove that you're innocent.
They can punish you before they even have a determining factor.
They can confiscate money before they even give you a trial in their own court by their own people.
They write the rules, their legislature, their judiciary, their enforcement arm, all in one.
Totally unaccountable.
A law unto itself.
And yet, that was just the first agency to do it.
They're all doing that now.
They're all doing it now.
But this is, I think, this is going to be, you know, we talk about artificial intelligence, the surveillance, the propaganda, the censorship.
That is a big threat.
The other part of this big threat is how they're going to use AI to surveil you and to feed that over to the IRS. And so you're going to have the artificial intelligence that's going to say, well, this is the amount I think that you owe.
Good luck trying to get that reversed.
You call up and it's like, the people that they hire, I don't know anything.
I can't help you with that.
I don't know this.
There's a lot of money that is owed under our tax laws to the Internal Revenue Service that isn't being collected, and we're beginning to remedy that problem, she explained.
And Trump isn't going to help you on this.
I mean, he created, made the problem much, much bigger with the spending, and neither is Lala.
She's more than happy to do that.
The Republicans will pretend that they don't like this type of thing, but they will do absolutely nothing to help you.
And so, when we look at what is happening, and we've talked about this in many different ways, I was just talking about how Walgreens and CVS and Rite Aid, you know, these brick-and-mortar stores, they're still struggling.
A lot of it is due to what happened four years ago, but in their particular case, there's also this insurance structure that is robbing them blind, even the big-box retailers.
But when we look at the restaurants and individuals, even if it is pretty wealthy franchise owners who are still individuals, but they're not like the mom-and-pop restaurant that starts out from scratch, even they're having difficulty staying in business.
Denny's is going to close 150 restaurants over the next year.
And they are also going to reduce the menu.
Denny's will be reducing the menu down from 97 items to 46 items.
So your Grand Slam breakfast, you're going to have a limited...
In May, Red Lobster closed over 100 locations in the U.S. And we've got restaurant bankruptcies that are piling up.
TGI Fridays may be next.
Who knows?
Maybe they'll put out their bankruptcy on a Friday.
600 locations in 55 countries, including 233 in the U.S., and they will file for bankruptcy protection soon, in the coming weeks.
And so there's a long list of large chains.
Going back decades, they said, this year is set to come in second only to 2020 for the number of restaurant chains and operators declaring bankruptcy.
Who was president in 2020?
Seems like most of the conservative media can't remember who was president.
They can't remember who said to mom and pop retailers and restaurants and everything, service businesses, you're not essential, shut down.
And they stayed shut down.
Destroyed them.
All of these superstitions.
Well, you can only have, you know, you can't have more than 20% of your capacity.
Well, of course, that shuts them down because they would always do most of their business on a Friday or Saturday night.
And if they can only get 20% of their business on those busy times, they can't stay afloat.
Look at all the games they played with them.
You know, you've got to have people outside.
You've got to have people go and drive through.
They struggle with this stuff.
They got behind if they didn't close down right away in 2020.
And that was the year that most of them bit the dust.
But even the ones who were able to survive Trump's lockdown when he made Fauci president.
Even the ones who were able to survive that are now going under.
Well, one person who's not going under is the billionaire widow of Steve Jobs.
You know, it's amazing when these people always think back to Fiddle on the Roof.
Octavia says, if I were a rich man, they'd think I really know.
Well, a lot of people think that way, right?
And the people who think that way, for the most part, are the people who are rich.
They think they really know.
And this woman, who did absolutely nothing to accumulate that money, she's living off the coattails of Steve Jobs.
She bought the Atlantic, which is really far left.
And she's talking about her social agenda crusade.
Yeah, one generation that makes the money, another one that spends it for their own fantasies, or in this particular case, you know, the surviving spouse.
Lauren Powell Jobs, widow of Steve Jobs, said she purchased the Atlantic to create narratives that she thinks will build a more just and equal society.
She was sitting next to Lala Harris.
When she described her agenda to control what information people should have access to.
This is the mindset of these wealthy people, and I really do find it concerning how now the people, they kind of always remain in the back, and you do have a lot of these billionaire investors, of course, remaining in the back as they donate tens or hundreds of millions of dollars to these two candidates.
And yet, they're now coming out in front because they just know better than you what you should be doing.
It's amazing.
Well, Mad Mim, thank you very much for the tip.
I'm very pleased to say that Dr.
Shiva made right in for Missouri.
Bottoms up movement is the way to fix the problems.
I agree with that.
And I like what Dr.
Shiva is doing because he's running for president to tell people that the presidency is not going to fix your problems.
Right?
And I 100% endorse that message.
I really do like...
See, that's what it ought to be used for.
That's why I talk about politics here.
It's to tell you that the presidency is not going to fix your problem.
Yeah, you should be interested in politics because politics is interested in you, whether you are or not.
And you should understand where the threats are so that you can do things that are going to be effective.
And it's not effective to think that you've done your job and you go down and you check a box for president.
But that's all they want you to do.
And they want you to be so hyper-focused on that that you don't see all the real things that you could be doing that are going to make a difference in your life outside of politics.
And all the things that you could be doing with your family, with your community, with all these other things, they don't want you to see that.
And so Shiva does.
And so he's trying to educate people, not trying to fleece them, you know, as Trump does, and all these politicians do.
Send me your money.
So I absolutely agree with that, and I think that's great.
I don't know if he's on a write-in in Tennessee.
If you know, let me know.
I don't even know what the write-in is, but whether they count it or not, I'm going to write something else in there.
I looked at the ballot, like I said, when I had Joel Skousen on.
I said, yeah, there's a Green Party.
There's two people who are kind of independent, but they identify as communists, literally.
They all made the ballot.
And then there's Lala and Trump, and it's pretty sad to see that.
If it wasn't down-ballot stuff I was interested in, I wouldn't even bother to show up.
But, you know, and when you talk about the Constitution Party, I had Joel Skousen on.
You know, I thought that maybe Randall Terry, you know, I'm all in favor of him running ads.
You know, Joel Skousen didn't like that idea.
I think that is true.
You know, when you say, well, it really offends people.
Well, they should be offended by polling, you know.
People don't know what abortion is.
You need to show them what that is.
I know they get offended by it.
It gets people very angry to see babies ripped apart.
So don't rip babies apart.
Right?
And you won't have to get angry about that.
But you should never become so anesthetized that it doesn't make you angry to see that happening.
See, that's the truth.
If people see the truth, they have a visceral reaction to that horror.
And I think that needs to be shown to people.
I don't think we ever need to run away from the truth.
Yeah, I would focus more on the positive message of this is a baby.
This baby could survive.
We were just talking about it, Travis and his wife.
Their baby is already bigger than my daughter's baby was when she was born earlier this year.
I mean, this year we're going to wind up, God willing, with two grandbabies.
And so, he's already bigger.
So, you know, at this point, he'll probably survive on his own.
But, you know, how in the world...
And we need to show people the reality of babies...
In a positive way.
But we also need to show them what a horror abortion is and never run from that.
But, you know, I've reached out to Randall Terry.
He doesn't respond to anything.
It's kind of crazy, the whole thing.
So he's not running any ads.
Didn't even manage to make it on the ballot in Tennessee.
I don't understand that.
I mean, it's...
There must be something else, because I think that, unless I just don't think it's an important state to be on because it's so rabidly Trump, I mean, it's like, you know, 75% Trump, and you drive up and down in the Gatlinburg area, the Pigeon Forge area and everything, and it's like, there's one Trump store after the other, and it's like, oh my.
People would tar and feather me if they knew I was.
But, yeah, so I don't know what's up with that, but I do like the message of Dr.
Shiva.
High Verbal says, bottom has fallen out of the diamond market.
The only way is to dump their diamonds.
Put them in the atmosphere.
The merchants cooked up this atmosphere scam to sell their rocks to the government.
Yeah, that's right.
Sam Miller, 123.
Teachers are already struggling to keep the kids from using AI to complete their schoolwork, and it's already everywhere.
Yeah.
For Love of the Road, thank you for the tip.
It says, Lala is giving away the Heritage Foundation, PDF, at TrumpsProject2025.com.
I couldn't find where it pushes for jailing people over abortion.
It's just fear-mongering BS from the liberals by the looks of it.
That's why this other thing, too, about the surveillance stuff and everything and using AI, I seriously doubt that's in there as well.
I mean, I just don't know the people at Heritage Foundation even think much about AI. They're not really kind of forward-looking.
And when all this stuff was happening in 2018, And Trump didn't support Infowars as they were being deplatformed, as I was being deplatformed.
He did nothing about it.
He had a Rose Garden meeting and he brought in the Cato Institute, biggest libertarian think tank, and he brought in Heritage Foundation, the biggest conservative think tank.
They were all like, well, hey, you know, corporations can do whatever they want.
If a corporation wants to kick you off the public square, they can do that.
Well, that's not what the Supreme Court said in 1946.
It disgusted me to see how the Heritage Foundation, and it's like, you know, don't you know, Cato and Heritage, don't you know that this censorship is coming from the government, we said at the time?
And then when the Twitter files came out, they go, oh, you mean that came from the government?
Who knew, right?
Well, Trump knew, that's why he didn't have anybody who was censored there.
He had people who were going to tell you, well, corporations are like people.
Corporations can do anything they want.
No, corporations are creatures of the government.
Of all things, they operate by privilege.
People are created by God, not by government.
And because we're created by God, we have inalienable rights, but not corporations.
And these corporations should have been given the death penalty if they did that type of thing.
Angela Oswald, thank you for the tip.
Curious, which Christian leaders, past or present, who have influenced your walk with Christ?
I would like to start listening to some, but disappointed with the direction they are leading Christians.
Well, I'll just say this.
When I was talking to...
When we were talking about career and things like that, and I mentioned Os Guinness when I was talking to David Bonson, and I thought David Bonson, I really, I've got a tape of him debating an atheist.
He was brilliant.
But he was only like, you know, in his early 40s when he died.
He always had a heart issue or something like that, and he died suddenly.
So, David Bonson, who I interviewed, that was his father, Greg Bonson.
If you are curious and are...
Kind of leaning towards God, but maybe you're still an atheist and you got questions about it, you should hear the debates by Greg Bonson.
I'm sure you can find them somewhere on the internet still.
They're pretty famous.
I like that a great deal.
And then, you know, there are things from C.S. Lewis that I like, but I don't endorse all of his theology.
You know, you have to look at these things with the Bible as a standard.
And so, from that standpoint, I would recommend the Bible, first and foremost.
You know, read the Bible.
You can read some other stuff there, but always check it against the Bible and make the Bible your primary resource.
And I would recommend things like the book of John, Isaiah, I've always found to be a really wonderful, uplifting book, and Psalms and things like that.
But there's just...
Yeah, so much wisdom there.
And sometimes it's helpful to see people distill things like that.
But, you know, when you, when all of the, I'm reluctant to talk about people because every time you talk about, and the atmosphere that we live in, The Christians can behave very much like the Black Lives Matter people, you know?
You got a statue up of some guy who was being honored because he did something honorable and something that laid a foundation of good into Western civilization.
They'll go back and they'll find something in his life and say, tear his statue down, right?
And Christians do that all the time with somebody that you pull out.
For example, I talk a lot about George Mueller.
And I think it'd be good for you to go back and look at his diary because the purpose of his diary was not to tell you some theology, but it was about the reason he kept the diary was because he wanted people to see that God was alive and present in his life and still acting today.
The Bible is not some dead book.
From millennia ago.
It's alive.
And it tells us about a living God.
And you could see that in his faith.
Now, you can go back and you can look at, you know, George Mueller.
He was one of the Plymouth Brethren, which was pushing Darbyism, which I don't agree with dispensationalism from a theological standpoint at all.
But his Christian life that he was, you know, we don't have to have perfect theology.
You know, error that we have in our theology, just like sin that is in our life, God is constantly purging that, and we're never going to get things 100% right, do things for exactly the right motivation, even if we do the right things.
And we are many times going to have the wrong theology.
We'll be proud about our theology, even if we've got the right theology.
So I don't discount George Mueller, because he was part of the Plymouth Brethren, and I don't like Darby's theology.
And so you can learn from his experiences.
And what you can learn from his experiences...
It was how God was active and present in his life because of that detailed diary.
So things like that I would suggest that you look at.
But always, you know, I don't say just keep an open mind and just say, well, nothing matters.
It does matter.
Whenever you have an error, it has consequences.
But, you know, his eschatology that he got, his dispensationalism, did not affect at all what he was talking about in his life.
And so he had a very close walk with God.
Everybody could see that in his life, in his diary.
And, you know, we should all have such a close life, such a close walk with God.
Now we're going to take a quick break.
And do we have Tony?
Oh, okay.
We haven't connected the establishment with him yet?
Okay, so before we go to break, and we are going to go to break here in a moment, Amos Poole, thank you very much.
That is very generous.
Thank you so much.
And Angela Oswald, thank you for the tip as well.
Curious, that's the one I just read, who said she was disappointed in the direction that many of these people are leading Christians.
And again, like I said, C.S. Lewis, he's got some wonderful insights and some other things, but, you know, he's not infallible.
And so I would just say that about all of these people.
But there are things that you can learn from them.
Just make sure that the Bible is your standard.
That's the key thing.
Well, we're going to take a break.
And again, thank you very much, Amos.
I really do appreciate that.
We're going to take a break, and we will be right back.
We're going to take a break.
We're going to take a break.
We're going to take a break.
Well, Japan has dropped a bombshell, exposes a 4900% spike in heart failure for the people who got the COVID vaccine.
Scientists have discovered the risk of heart failure surges by up to 4900%.
We're talking about 50 times, essentially, folks.
After a person receives a COVID injection, the explosive discovery was made by a team of Japanese researchers at Yokohama General Hospital.
They found the risk of myocarditis is 20 to 50 times greater after receiving the shot.
And that's why I guess it is now a household word.
You know, we're supposed to believe, as Fauci said, it's rare.
Well, if it's rare, how did myocarditis and pericarditis, which are unheard of, have they become household words?
As I said before, I remember the first time I saw them, I had to look up.
How do I pronounce that?
They calculate reporting odds ratios.
And 95% confidence intervals for the odds ratio was 95%.
Confidence interval was also 95%.
And the association between the vaccines and myocarditis and pericarditis based on data from the Japanese government's Vaccine Adverse Event Database.
We've known this from day one.
We can see this was happening in December of 2020.
The inflammation of the heart internally, myocarditis or pericarditis, the perimeter of it.
The team analyzed official data from April of 2004 to December of 2023.
So over a 20-year time period, they saw this go up by a factor of 20 to 50 times.
The risk for most cardiovascular events is reduced after COVID-19 vaccination.
Wait a minute.
OBS and all these other types of things.
It's amazing that these corporations and government can do that type of stuff to us.
Then they talk about, well, how do you get the fluoride out?
And again, you know, when we look at this, it never made any sense that you would ever medicate anybody for anything through the water supply.
Even if it was known to be safe and effective, it's not going to be safe or effective If the dosage isn't right, if the dosage is too low, it's not going to be effective.
If the dosage is too high, it's not going to be safe.
That's the case if something is really good.
Well, there was a lot of research for a long time showing the fluoride was not good for us.
And that even if it was, why would you put it in the water supply?
Why?
Even if it was evenly distributed, do you really want a baby to have the same amount of fluoride that a 200-pound man gets?
None of this made any sense.
But when they start talking about how to remove fluoride from water at home, and this article goes through a lot of different things.
It said, well, you can have reverse osmosis system.
That'll filter out about 84% of the fluoride, or you can have activated alumina filters, which is really good.
Berkey's PF2, they said, can remove up to 97%, requires no plumbing or electricity.
However, there are concerns that small amounts of aluminum may be released into the water, and these alkaline conditions, under alkaline conditions, these filters may leach harmful aluminum fluoride complexes.
So again, you know, an issue with that.
But this is the one that I thought was interesting.
We're talking about bone char filters.
They said bone char is another distinct option for filtering fluoride from drinking water made from crushed animal bones heated in a kiln.
Under low oxygen conditions, bone char naturally absorbs fluoride and other contaminants, such as heavy metals, making it an effective filtration tool.
Bone char's ability to trap fluoride raises an important question.
If animal bones can absorb fluoride so effectively, What impact might fluoride have on bones in our own bodies?
Well, we know that.
It's called fluorosis.
You can see it.
That's why I don't even buy that it's good for our teeth when you look at fluorosis.
But again, one of the most effective ways to remove it out of your water is to put animal bones in because the bones suck up fluoride.
Fluoride doesn't belong in our medicine.
It doesn't belong in our water unless they're trying to harm us.
So it said 99% of fluoride lives in the bones, they said.
So I don't know, when we're looking at the harm from levofloxacin and these other fluoride-based antibiotics like Cipro, maybe that's the issue.
Maybe it's in the bones, which is what is happening.
Children living in areas with high fluoride levels and drinking water experience more bone fractures, especially in the arm and elbow.
Bone char filters work through absorption.
However, its filtration lifespan can be unpredictable.
It can vary with fluoride levels, and it requires regular monitoring and replacement.
So, you know, there's not a good solution, except to just stop putting it in the water.
That's the key thing.
They said even filters claiming to remove 98% of a contaminant may be insufficient if the contaminant levels in the source water are particularly high.
Again, you know, look at how they have freaked out, and I think rightfully so, with the lead pipes, right?
It does have an effect on IQ, but we knew the same thing about fluoride.
Why would they pay so much attention to lead everywhere?
And completely ignore the fluoride.
Well, now we know.
Well, Tony is ready.
We've got Tony on the line, so we're going to take a quick break, and we will be right back.
Stay with us.
Stay with us.
Stay with us.
ORCHESTRA PLAYS
ORCHESTRA PLAYS
Thank you.
.
Thank you.
You're listening to The David Knight Show.
Well, welcome back, and we're glad to get Tony on.
We had some problems with the Zoom link that we sent to him, and Karen's been running back and forth, doing a great job, Karen, getting all this stuff together.
So, we got Tony on, finally, and I really did want to talk to Tony, because this has been a busy week.
I mean, besides the stuff that's been happening with gold now for several weeks, hitting all-time highs and everything, bricks is going on as well.
And, of course, Tony has Wise Wolf Gold, and he has set up DavidKnight.gold that will take you to Wise Wolf. He will help you to get gold or silver, small or large amounts, and he has something that is really unique.
And you can sign up for that and decide that you want to save X amount of dollars per month.
He's got several different levels there starting as low as $50 a month.
And you can start accumulating gold and silver on a gradual, regular basis.
And at the same time, you get a group buy, the power of a group buy as part of that group.
He's got over 1,000 people in there.
Maybe it's a lot more than that now.
I don't know.
But So joining us now is Tony Arterman of Wise Wolf Gold.
Thank you for joining us, Tony.
Glad to get you here.
Always great to be here, David.
Good to see you.
Good to see you.
What's going on with bricks?
I mean, the stars are realigning here, aren't they?
There's a rebalance of power geopolitically across the globe, and as the dollar wanes, BRICS grows in power and influence.
You see Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, now Saudi Arabia, and other periphery nations meeting in Russia.
Vladimir Putin is calling for a cross-border payment system to supplant the SWIFT system that's currently dominated by the West and the United States, really, with something called the BRICS Bridge.
And again, it's not about the BRICS coming up with their own currency.
I think that's a little misleading.
I think it's really about what I've been saying is cross-border payment systems.
They're about the resetting of commodity prices, especially in gold.
That's why you see them continually buy so much gold.
We're breaking all these records with central banks ordering gold.
The United States is not buying gold.
Canada is not buying gold.
The West in general is staying out of that.
And I think you're seeing all that power and influence Drift towards the BRICS nations.
This is going to be the trend.
De-dollarization continues, David.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Of course, I saw this other thing about BRICS pay.
They said they've had it around for a while, but they've tweaked that.
They put out some videos about that.
Also, they're moving, you know, Putin and, of course, China took the lead in all this stuff in terms of CBDC and things like that.
So...
It's not like they are some good guys over there.
It's just that you've got these different power centers that are there that are rising up and making big leaps with the BRICS nation as more and more people are coming over to them.
And now they've already busted the petrodollar.
Saudi Arabia, you know, who had supported the U.S. dollar, And helped to make it the reserve currency for cross-border payments for commodities and everything with the petrodollar.
Now they are everybody, you know, the Chinese and the Saudis and the Russians are accepting a payment and their native currencies are on gold.
That's right.
And of course, the BRICS bridge system that Vladimir Putin is talking about would be utilize blockchain token technology to do that.
And it could be backed by gold, could be other commodities, whatever that nation is rich in, but it'd be cross-border payments and settled in real time.
Just trying to get away from the Western system.
I saw something that Trump said, I think this last week, and he said, if I see a country that wants to dump the dollar, I'll just call them up and tell them that I'll put 100% tariff on whatever they send into our country.
And I thought about that.
I'm wondering, did he not get the memo that whoever's running this country is giving up the dollar?
It's a controlled demolition of the dollar.
We didn't stop the Saudis from drifting away from their 50-year agreement with the petrodollar.
We've weaponized the dollar.
There is no wisdom.
And now you talk about Janet Yellen earlier saying they can close the funding gap through through raising taxes.
That's insanity.
You know, you quote the I mean, just looking at real time, it's not it's no longer a trillion dollars every 90 days.
It's Like you said, it's like $2.3 trillion.
That's right.
It's the amount of money that Donald Rumsfeld lost at the Pentagon every month.
There's something else going on here.
I don't think it's just economics.
I think this is a plan that's being carried out, and the leaders of this country completely abandon it.
I don't think there is any strategy here.
John F. Kennedy, I think he wrote a book sometime when I think he was in Congress.
It was called Why Britain Slept, I think, and it was about appeasement and the lead-up to World War II. It's very similar.
It's like the sleep at the wheel is what I'm watching.
There's nothing going on in the West other than just self-sabotage, but it looks to be on purpose, David, as we see.
You and I were talking off-air.
There's something interesting going on geopolitically.
It's not in the headlines, but...
Saudi Arabia and Iran are set to hold joint military exercises in the Red Sea.
This was supposedly brokered by China.
And so the resetting of the grand chessboard worldwide is going on, and we're still playing, I think, an outdated game that's losing.
And that's surprising because we all think, so many people think that Islam is monolithic.
But there are two different strains of Islam.
You know, the Saudis are Wahhabists, and the Iranians, what are they, Shia or Sunni?
Shia.
Shia, yeah.
And so, you know, that's been a part of, that's why the Arabs are fighting each other, right?
Is because of these different strains of Islam.
And the fact that they would bridge together and become allies over that, that is very unusual.
Again, there's something, the Saudis, with the lapse of the petrodollar agreement, the 50-year agreement with the United States, the Chinese filled the gap and had proposed a petroyuan, which is supported by Russia.
These things start to make more sense to me.
You know, we look at the passing of the U.S. dollar and the hegemonic dominance of U.S. military in the Middle East.
And somebody's filling that role.
That looks to be China.
And, of course, Russia in that periphery.
So there's something else going on here, and it has to do with our currency.
And it's on the chopping block of being used and utilized.
And these other countries want away from the system, especially the SWIFT system of payment settlements.
So this is huge.
Well, weaponized by Biden, and what is Trump's thing?
Trump wants to bully everybody, right?
You better not do this.
I'm going to, you know, like you said, 100% tariff.
You know, you're going to build your factories here.
You're not going to be able to import your products and anything.
That kind of thuggish intimidation is just going to accelerate the decline of the influence of America, I think.
But getting back to Iran and Saudi Arabia, the Yemen war.
I thought the Yemen hoodies, weren't they supplied by Iran?
I mean, they've been fighting all this time, and here it is.
The proxy war.
Yeah, I know.
I mean, we were backing the House of Saud in Yemen, and the Iranians were backing the Houthi rebels, right?
And I mean, this is something that's been, it's genocide.
So now what happens?
Does peace break out there with Yemen and Saudi Arabia?
I mean, that's crazy.
And, of course, we oppose Iran mostly because of their ties to Russia.
If you go back, historically, even the Yalta Conference was held, and it's Iran.
And that's Churchill, Stalin, FDR. The big power moves that were made, that's...
This is going back decades and decades, going back to the end of World War II. The periphery and the influence of Russia in Iran was massive.
And that's the whole point of Operation Ajax and overthrowing Mosadek and all that in the 1950s.
The first overthrow done by the fledgling agency that is known as the CIA that was done in 1951, I think.
They've got such a great track record, don't they?
Look at the monster they created, you know?
From MKUltra to Operation Ajax, it's all good at the CIA. This is something that we're watching, I think it defies logic.
The whole thing's being reset, old lines are being redrawn, and again, there's a sleep at the wheel.
There's something up with our policy.
Well, I think there is, in the West, there is an active sabotage that is going on.
And you can see it with energy, which includes the oil stuff and everything.
But you can see it with what they're doing to our grid.
You can see it with what they're doing to manufacturing and everything.
It's a deliberate policy.
Of starvation of energy, starvation of food, moving manufacturing to China.
These people are traitors that are running our countries.
And it's not just America.
It's all the Western countries.
They have betrayed their own people.
And if you start talking about doing things for your own people, if you're Canadian and you start talking about helping a Canadian politician, you want to help Canadians, or an American politician wants to help Americans, or a German politician wants to help Germans, oh, you're a fascist.
You're an ultra-nationalist.
These are the kind of labels that are thrown out there.
But the people that we have in charge in all these different countries, they hate us.
They're trying to destroy our country just like they were part of the depopulation agenda that was going through.
So...
There's no question that's happening.
But then there's also the other issue, and I guess we should maybe take some dark joy and some schadenfreude.
When Powell cut rates by an emergency 50 basis points, did he expect that yields would be 50 basis points higher a month later?
That's the headline.
In other words, they're pulling all these levers and all these tricks and everything to try to get things going, and a lot of the stuff that they're trying to do It's not actually working.
And it's backfiring.
And so, you know, that is an element of hope, I think, that these people are not capable of necessarily of pulling off their schemes that are there to harm us.
That's right.
Well, that's another reason you continue to see gold hit new all-time highs.
And I can't even track any.
I think it's like 35 times in the last nine months.
This continues to break all-time highs.
Value in the marketplace.
I mean, how do you find value in a marketplace?
How do you find value in a world where it may be the GDP to debt may be a parity?
It may have reached that, where you have, you know, about $350 trillion in debt worldwide, maybe, you know...
Possibly 400 trillion in assets, and I don't even believe that because most of that's based off of currency and fake currency and markets where you and I both know a lot of these companies aren't profitable.
Wall Street is a joke compared to what it was 50 years ago.
There is no...
There's no sound accounting anymore of anything.
This is not based off of production or not based off of profit.
So who knows anymore?
I mean, the unintended consequences of lowering the interest rates 50 basis points, that's what it is.
You don't really know.
It's not...
The market's asking for inflation, and that's what's so unhealthy.
They're asking for the cheap liquidity injection, and that's what's continuing to drive the purchasing power and purchasing strength of the dollar down every time they do that.
And yeah, there may be a short uptick in the economy, and I think that's why they did it so close to the election.
You were talking about James Carville earlier in the show as you opened up the show.
He's famous for saying it's the economy, stupid.
And going off of the existing regime, the existing administration always does okay if the economy's sailing along.
Look at Clinton in the 90s.
And I think that's one of the reasons why they pulled this card.
It's hard to tell anymore, though.
You have some great analysis on what are the powers that be won out of this election.
It's hard to tell.
They definitely did that.
They lowered the interest rates.
It was more than most analysts thought.
It was supposed to be 25.
They went to 50.
But the unintended consequences, because of the underlying weaknesses in our financial system, I think they didn't really see this coming.
They're It's not exactly the smart set that runs the levers of the Federal Reserve.
And see, that's the thing.
When they start pushing the buttons and putting in the control rods and stuff like that, and completely opposite things happen.
We had the interest rate for homes went up.
So when this kind of stuff starts happening, it's like, whoa.
But I just thought of something.
When you talked about James Carville and his It's the Economy Stupid, it's interesting that that was not one of his three points that he made.
I wasn't saying, yeah, she's going to win because, look, is the economy stupid?
No, it's just she's stupid.
I mean, that's why I don't think it's, who knows?
It's stupid.
It's really stupid.
I thought that the third thing there that, you know, well, I think it's going to be Lala Harris because, you know, Trump has divided everybody.
I think it's going to be Trump because I think that's exactly what they want.
Right.
But, you know, you were talking about the entire world economy, $400 trillion maybe.
Oh, you could take, and you said, well, it's probably not that much.
Who knows, we might still be able to get the $200 trillion so that we can grind up diamonds and put them in and save the world.
The World Bank has lost track of $41 billion handed out for climate ideologies.
And you're talking about how, you know, the control of this stuff is...
Nobody knows what's happening with it.
They said the people were trying to analyze this, and that's about 40% of what they've spent on climate giveaways.
And they said, we looked at this stuff, and it's incredibly complicated, but it also doesn't add up.
And they don't even have any way as complicated as they send them this tremendous amount of information, kind of like trying to hide a needle in a haystack, right?
So they send them a haystack of information, But then they look at it and they say, well, as complicated as all that is, it doesn't even address 40% of your stuff, and you don't have any answers for that.
It's all just, we've reached the point of such corruption and chaos, I think.
And I think that's really, everybody's starting to understand that.
That's why, as you point out, we've had so many changes in gold.
Where is gold today?
What's happening?
Let's check.
Let's check in real time.
You can always check gold prices by going to wolfpack.gold.
I have a live ticker.
Let me pull that up.
Let's do wolfpack.gold.
I just checked it earlier.
It was 27, let me see, 2733.71.
And it got up to like 2760 or something like that earlier this week, I think.
Yes, silver's down just under $34.
It's $33.70 as of this broadcast.
But there's pullbacks, there's profit-taking.
The mere fact that we're in the $2,700 range is bizarre to me, given the fact that we're still...
We're still inching along, and I don't think a lot of the damage has caught up to this economy yet.
I mean, we know what went on prior to 2020, David.
You and I talked about it, and then the massive currency creation there in the last quarter of 2019.
We're really going 2020 and beyond.
The basement of the dollar, the damage that's been done, and we are still floating on that.
You know, they chose quantitative easing.
Yeah.
Over real austerity and other measures to cut things and dig into what would balance something out or have any sort of lasting impact.
So I'm still waiting for the reverberations to hit.
I don't think they have hit.
I don't think that we've seen the true impact yet of the dollar debasement.
I think that will start showing up as de-dollarization continues, the loss of the petrodollar, more countries dumping the dollar, getting into gold.
As we've seen, too, I've mentioned before, the euro was just supplanted by gold as the second reserve asset held by central banks.
It used to be, you know, gold was way down there on the bottom of the list, and now it's supplanted the euro, and what's next is the dollar.
I think really gold is the world's reserve currency.
And what these other nations like BRICS are working on, David, is they're working on a way that these countries can have cross-border payment systems, not necessarily a dominating currency together, but just a way that they can trade amongst themselves.
And, of course, the gold will be the currency, I think, of the future when it comes to dealing with nation to nation.
I don't think it'll be the dollar.
I agree.
And it's not going to get any better.
You know, one of the reasons you got Lala and Trump is because regardless of whichever one of them is put in, it's going to continue down the same path with Lala.
And Trump is maybe even going to accelerate it by using by weaponizing and threatening people.
That's only going to accelerate the trend away from the dollar as cross-border payments and things like that.
But we're seeing from the IMF, I just talked about the World Bank and how it's become this massive organized theft ring.
The IMF chief economist says the battle against inflation is almost won, according to Newsweek.
Ha!
Now, this is the same Newsweek that back in 1979 said we're going to be out of oil and gas by the mid-80s and everything.
So now Newsweek is telling us that the battle against inflation is almost won.
That's a serious idea, isn't it?
If it's coming from them, it's probably exactly the opposite.
Well, we finally beat the common cold, too, David, and...
Well, what we've done is we beat to death the different economies.
They're talking about China's economic growth being down maybe only about 5% a year or whatever.
But Germany has zero, zero economic growth.
I mean, you know, we're looking at these guys have created stagflation.
Or as Gerald Slenty calls it, dragflation.
And yet they're declaring victory.
China went down from 5.2% to 4.5%.
Great.
But the Eurozone is expected to only grow at 0.8%.
So China's allowed to grow five times faster.
And I think that the Eurozone is actually contracting because they're losing all of their ability to manufacture anything.
That's right.
They don't have the...
China has such an advantage in terms of energy costs.
There's no way they can ever compete with them.
That's going to be a bigger factor even than the slave labor and the currency manipulation and the piracy and all these things that have been part of the China price.
Now we've got energy that is going to be five to ten times cheaper than everybody else is using.
It's crazy.
Well, I think you hit the nail on the head.
It all comes down to production.
You have a productive economy.
Of course, in the Asian sector and places like China, they make things.
They produce things.
And that requires energy.
And there's labor.
And of course, there's resources.
It creates a different type of economy.
It's what the United States was built on.
It was manufacturing and production.
We were the manufacturing marvel of mankind and also known as the arsenal of democracy.
You can look at the history of what we used to supply, what we used to produce, what we used to export.
And that all stopped in the early 70s as soon as we went off the gold standard, started running trade deficits.
We never ran a trade surplus again.
I think that history will show that that was on purpose, that things were shifted away from this hemisphere, away from the United States, away from the West, to, again, set up what we're looking at right now in this 21st century, which is a China-dominated, Asian-dominating which is a China-dominated, Asian-dominating economic system run through places like the World Economic Forum and Bank of International Settlements, the globalist system.
Because they use the Chinese model, as you point out all the time.
You have to get away from the United States with its pesky constitution, its Bill of Rights, and its history of Western civilization and rule of law, property rights, all those things.
You've got to get away from that.
And I think that's what's happening.
We're literally...
I mean, there's a controlled demolition happening.
Not only happened as first starting in our manufacturing, and then it's going into our currency, which I think will be the final thing that will take the United States from being a world's dominating superpower.
That's the...
That's the commercial that the World Economic Forum ran, by the way, in 2016.
That's how it started.
It said, imagine a world where the United States is no longer the world's lone superpower.
It's an interesting proposition and question.
If you look at the United States spending seven times more than the other three or four countries combined underneath its arrivals on military budget, how would it lose that status?
Well, it would lose the status by losing the world's reserve currency and financial domination that we've had.
And it looks like everything that we're looking at, this is accelerated.
Yeah.
Well, like you said, you know, how did we win?
Well, we won because we were the arsenal of democracy, because we had a vibrant economy.
We could outproduce the other side.
We could outproduce weapons when it came to that.
And so after World War II, we had organizations, first the Bilderberg group, which met at the site of the last victory of Nazi Germany on the 10th year, and it was on the 10th anniversary of that last victory.
And they turned it to economics.
They realized that it was the economic foundation that was a path to global domination.
Same thing with the World Economic Forum, as you point out with Klaus Schwab, who was You know, we're going to transcend with economics.
We, on the other hand, after World War II, we decided that we are going to dominate the world by building weapons instead of building our economy.
So, you know, they learned from us and we got the wrong lesson from them.
We brought over the Operation Paperclip.
I think we brought over not only the people who were involved in biometric, biological crimes and chemical warfare and things like that, we also brought over their geopolitical ideas and made that the foundation of our country instead of the way that we were set up before.
But as we look at this moving out, it's really, we're seeing yet another bank failure.
This is First National Bank of Lindsay.
I don't think it was associated with Lindsay Graham, but who knows, New York.
You know, all wars are bankers' wars, so I would imagine that Lindsey Graham's got to be somewhere connected to some kind of a bank anyway, but this is another one that has gone belly up, and of course, FDIC insured, but just another...
Example of what I think is going to be happening quite a bit.
There's no specifics about this.
They just said they shut them down because of false and deceptive records.
I think we're going to see an avalanche of this stuff after the election.
And I guess a word of caution to people would be make sure that you don't have too much money in the banks.
And even if you've got gold and silver, you might not want to have it in the bank deposit box.
No, I would recommend never having gold and silver in a safety deposit box in a bank because it's controlled by the FDIC and other federal regulatory agencies.
And if you get into any sort of trouble or...
I just caution against it.
There can be liens that you don't know about, there can be judgments passed against you, and then that box can be seized.
That's too much risk.
If you're going to do something and go into the private sector, there's a lot better options than using your bank.
Look at that place in LA or something where the FBI went in and they said, well, you know, there's a couple of places here that I think they were dealing with illegal drugs, so we're going to seize everybody's boxes.
A lot of people legitimately had gold and silver and things like that.
They just took everything from everybody.
No, it's terrifying, I mean, to think about.
You've got to do some research.
We use, I mean, for the IRAs, we use some very reputable storage places like IDS and other things that are with Dill and Gage at the trading floor in Dallas and then all over the country.
But there's, you know, Miles Franklin, Andy Sheckman, those are people to talk to about storage.
I don't do that.
I don't offer that.
I think that's a whole other realm that I'm actually just too busy for.
I don't think I could take on any more projects right now.
No, but you're absolutely right on the bank failures and being exposed that way.
And it will be after the election.
I think regardless of who wins, a lot of things that were put on pause as to not affect outcome or to see what was going to happen.
A lot of the things that were kept in stasis, I think, will be brought out post-election.
So that's when you really got to pay attention here, especially going into first quarter 2025.
So much is on the table.
David, we're halfway through this decade.
And you and I both know that the goal here, Agenda 2030, this is the milestone.
And 2020 opened up with a bang, you know, with the assassination of Soleimani by Trump.
The hashtag was World War III.
I remember because I was hosting your show.
And I thought, wow, we're just going to open this decade right up here with, you know, no holds barred.
This is right out of the gate.
And of course, right after that, we had...
COVID-1984 and the lockdowns and all of that that came afterwards.
So we've been on a steady pace for Agenda 2030.
Make no mistake about it.
So it will ramp back up after the election.
It will.
And regardless of who wins.
People, I said, I don't understand how the MAGA people excuse Trump going to Davos January 20th of 2020.
And then within a couple of months, he locks the entire country down.
And within 10 days, his HHS secretary declares a global health emergency when nobody has died.
Right.
So, I mean, you know, anybody else, they would have said, look at that.
He's, you know, he's doing what Davos wants him to do.
But for him, he gets a pass.
It's amazing.
This is the article that I was talking about in terms of the acceleration of The U.S. national debt Adds $500 billion in accrued interest in just three weeks, as net interest costs are $882 billion.
So, I mean, you look at this and it's just a straight up, it went vertical in terms of what it added.
So, it's truly amazing, and the ability to even be able to service this debt, and of course, anything that you got in a bank account, Janet Yellen, artificial intelligence, and 80,000 IRS agents are going to be sniffing around to confiscate everything.
It's just amazing to me to see what's going to be happening in the next couple of years.
Oh, I think everything's accelerated.
They're going to use their fiscal shortfalls as an excuse to go after people.
And they won't go after the uber-rich.
They're going to go after the middle class.
And this is a calling to make sure that there's going to be two classes in the country, the haves and the have-nots.
That works best in the communist system.
That's their playbook.
It'll be, you know, I think something that Bill Cooper talked about is a one-world totalitarian socialist government.
That's what they want.
Yeah.
It's plain to see that's their politics, and that's their goals, and they've told you what their goals are.
They'll go after whatever's decentralized.
They'll go after the smaller things, and I don't think they're necessarily going to be successful.
Me neither, David.
I think there's a lot of people that are onto this that are moving away from centralized systems.
They're skeptical of the financial system.
That's wonderful.
I think crypto's done a great job educating people on that.
Crypto, in my opinion, is really being tested right now.
You know, Bitcoin's being tested.
Is it an asset that you want to keep in times of uncertainty?
That's an open question.
I like Bitcoin.
I buy some every day.
But as we move closer into the 2030 agenda, more and more I look at precious metals and say, well, I'm glad I've got...
This is a gold coin.
This is from 1848.
This is still money.
This is a British sovereign from 1848 that I'm holding in my hand.
I've had it on my desk.
It's worth about $600 or maybe more right now.
And then that's been money for a very long time.
So it will continue to be money.
For the rest of history, as long as there's human beings.
So I think there's something that is very, you know, as far as smart to be outside of the system when it comes to the digitized world and the things they're bringing in and the economic uncertainty, having something outside of counterparty risk.
And so I'm precious metals first and crypto second.
Yeah, yeah.
And they have no...
They have no answer for how they're going to get to fiscal sovereignty, right?
Or sanity.
You know, as Janet Yellen's only answer is, oh, we're going to squeeze people harder with the IRS. When you look at this, they had $500 billion in just three weeks.
So that's a half a trillion dollars.
That means that they're now going at the pace, if they keep this up, that pace is $2.5 trillion for every 100 days.
They're accelerating this insanity.
It's bad enough that we're doing $1 trillion every 100 days.
Now this is at the pace of going $2.5 trillion every 100 days.
And the only answer is to...
Ramp up the IRS? This is kind of like, I was talking about the national sale, about property tax.
And, you know, the response of Doug Burgum up in North Dakota, well, you know, we're just going to take it somewhere else.
There's no idea that they could ever reduce anything that the government's doing or that they could even do it more efficiently.
No, we'll just have to grab more taxes from somewhere else.
These people are never going to fundamentally change.
That's why we need to start looking at getting out of this system parallel measures.
And I think certainly the best things you can do financially parallel is to get into gold and silver.
And it's a hedge, not just with all the crazy geopolitics and the crazy resetting of the financial system globally.
But also because their intention is to surveil and to control everything that we do through CBDC. So that has not changed, in my opinion.
I think that is the key reason to start accumulating gold and silver is because of CBDCs.
And even Russia's talking about doing that.
You know, China took the forefront of that.
Everybody is going to be doing that.
So that's where you need to get outside of that system, I think.
Just because BRICS is opposing the United States Western system of economic dominance doesn't mean they're good.
It doesn't mean they're the good guy.
It's like Stalin or Hitler, right?
Just because my enemy is not necessarily my friend.
They might be a co-belligerent for a short period of time, but they're not our friend.
And for the record, I don't impose the dollar system if it's done right.
I think it could be stable payments.
I think the way it was set up after Breton Woods was fundamentally sound until we started debasing our currency in the 1960s and taking the silver out and running the Vietnam War, the guns and butter, and all that stuff.
I think that's what really...
It made it unsound, of course, going off the gold standard.
But I think Americans are better off now that they can own gold.
You know, 1974, Gerald Ford made it legal for you to own gold with his executive order, which has been great.
So be your own bank.
And necessarily, these governments are going to continue to do what they do, which is they're going to take a currency, they're going to...
You know, use it to, they're going to inflate their way out of any issue that they have, whether it's the welfare, warfare state, it's going to debase the purchasing power.
That's just what they do.
It's going to be unlimited.
So you ought to have something that is outside of that system and that is finite.
And that's either, you know, something like gold, silver, or Bitcoin.
Tell us a little bit about what's going on at Wise Wolf now.
How is the Wolf pick going on?
There's a lot of volatility with that.
How is that?
There's so much volatility.
We had to take it down.
There was so much volatility.
The price is just whipsawing, and then the price is going up.
So it's just temporarily down because what had happened is we're trying to do it with no fees, with no credit card fees.
So you have to do the payment through our checking system.
And just lining that up with people's picks on that was just harder.
So I'm going to have to find a way to do it in real time.
So we're working on that.
That's just something we learned from the first round of it that we couldn't do it in the way that with these prices, they're not stable.
We're continuing to, they could go down for some profit taking and then you just see a lurch forward and that is making it very difficult like just to stay ahead of that and I've been doing this for the Wolfpack memberships itself like just finding the product now is getting harder And finding the smaller product is getting harder, the fractionalized stuff.
We will do it.
And this is an excellent challenge for me.
I enjoy the challenge.
But we've made all the Wolfpack members our priority.
So anything going on in Wise Wolf, that all goes into Wolfpack first.
So it's been an interesting time staying ahead of these prices.
And this is the new normal, by the way.
Well, you always said it was going to take off like this, and the problem was going to be finding product.
While we're there now, most bullish people were saying $2,700, maybe January, February of 2025, or something like that.
And it's already kicking off.
I think we're going to be in for a wild ride, and it's going to be very difficult.
That's going to be a challenge to get that stuff through there, I think, yeah.
Yeah, I think definitely 2025, $3,000 gold, easy.
And I think that's just based off of the dollar strength waning more than anything.
And central bank gold buying continues to outpace.
It's not slowing down.
And that's only like a 10% increase from where it is right now.
That's a good thing, 10%.
But, you know, in terms of what we've seen over the last year or so, and nothing has fundamentally changed in spite of what Newsweek says, or the IMF chief economist said that.
It's really changed.
It's only getting worse.
So you've got a program.
Remember Gerald Ford's campaign?
You know, it's going to whip inflation.
Whip inflation now.
You should sell those buttons.
That's probably, that metal right there is probably worth something in terms of satire, you know.
You can't whip inflation with fake currency.
That's right.
You just can't do it.
You've got to have stable, sound money to whip inflation, and you're not going to be able to do it with fiat.
That's right.
That's right.
Well, tell us, your program is going to be immediately following this one today?
Is that correct?
Oh, yes, sir.
Arterburn Radio Transmission.
You can find us over on Rockfin on the America Unplugged channel.
We've got the Rumble channel as well, America Unplugged.
That's where I broadcast with Billy Ray Valentine and the legendary Don Jeffries every Saturday.
And my Twitter, or x at Tony Arterburn, I'll be live there.
So go check us out.
We'll have an hour of, we'll see what I can come up with to talk about.
I'm sure it'll be interesting.
Good news.
Oh, I'm sure it will be.
It's always interesting.
You always do a great job.
And thank you so much for joining us.
Thank you for supporting the program.
Thank you very much, Tony.
Appreciate it.
Oh, absolutely.
Thank you, David.
Appreciate all you do.
Thank you.
David Knight.
I'll take you to Tony's Wise Wolf.
Thank you, Tony.
We're going to be right back, folks.
Folks stay with us.
They created common core to dumb down our children.
They created common past to track and control us.
Their commons project to make sure the commoners own nothing.
And the communist future.
They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary.
But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God.
That is what we have in common.
That is what they want to take away.
Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation.
They desire to know everything about us while they hide everything from us.
It's time to turn that around and expose what they want to hide.

Well, we have FX Zero Rec.
Did you guys also have a fluoride lady at school?
No, we didn't have one.
Here in Swarabia, we have had a designated lady that swings by elementary school every week to force children to take fluoride tabs.
Wow.
Wow, we walked out of the pediatrician's office when he tried to push that on our kids.
That's amazing.
No, we didn't have that kind of stuff.
We didn't have a dare when I was in school.
That abomination came after me.
That's amazing.
That's amazing.
I guess, did the fluoride lady, did she have fluorosis on her teeth?
Was it like all eaten up and everything?
Taking those fluoride tabs?
LT Oracle of Truth David Publix also offers $20 for flu and COVID Vax.
I also found out through a manager that the pharmacy is their most profitable department.
Yeah, I bet.
Well, you know, when I was talking about Walgreens and CVS, I said it's like three quarters of a trillion dollar business, except they're being squeezed by the insurance companies on that kind of stuff.
And, you know, if you can get people to come in to get their prescriptions, then, you know, they can sell them groceries.
And that's really where the brick and mortar Walgreens and CVS are falling short.
They're just don't really, they're not stocking the store.
Why do you call it a store?
Well, because you've got to put stuff there, you know?
You store things there so people can buy it.
They don't do too good a job with that.
I do want to briefly say thank you to some of the people who have sent contributions by mail.
I want to acknowledge this because it's hard for them to know.
If it got through, Gonzalo and Susan M., David and Anne-Marie N., David and Joan F., Stephanie K., Jeremy W., Joyce H., Phillip and Kelly M., Paul G. from Oregon, Mark C., Jackie and Fred U., William G., thank you so much for your support.
And Jackie and Fred also wrote this.
They said, Good news.
I've finished paying a loan off.
I can now double the amount of your monthly check.
Thank you so much for doing that.
I really do appreciate it.
And they've been faithful supporters for a long time.
I hope this helps.
Fred and I are continuing to pray for Whistler and for all of you through these trying times.
Thank you so much, especially for that.
And for those of you who don't know, he's been injured by fluoride-based Antibiotic.
Stay away from those things.
I mean, they keep changing the names and, you know, tweaking the formulation so they can keep in it.
But we've known for 45 years, Cipro and these other things, the horrific injuries that they do to people.
Permanent injuries in many cases.
So we're praying it's not going to be permanent.
And he is able to get up.
He's not in constant pain now.
So there's been an improvement.
So thank you for your prayers with that.
There's been an improvement that he's able to get up, but he can't do much of anything.
And if he tries to even walk down the stairs, he did that the other day, and he got tremendous long-lasting pain in his wrist and his knee.
So you take it very easy with him.
The tendonitis is one of the things that this poison does to people.
And it is poison.
Absolutely it's poison.
Let's talk a little bit about fear.
Because I mentioned this yesterday.
I said, why do you have these Christian pastors out there who are putting in a spirit of fear into people about this election?
So we don't need to fear this.
We ought to look at it objectively and everything.
But we need to set the standard of morality high.
We need to set the standard of Christ high.
And we don't need to yoke ourselves to these corrupt individuals.
And they'll apologetically say, well, you know, nobody's perfect.
Well, most people don't brag about...
That's one of the things I said about Trump from the very beginning.
I said, you know, for the longest time, I had said, you know, what is it about the LGBT people?
Well, they have their pride parades.
I said, they're proud of their sin.
I said, people don't typically parade their sin, and they're not typically proud of it, but these people are.
And I even used the analogy.
I said, do you have adulterer parades, you know, that might wind you up in divorce court?
But, you know, when Trump came on the scene politically, I said, well, I guess I have to change that analogy because he is somebody who is proud of his adultery, right?
He parades his immorality like the LGBT people do.
And that's a big problem.
Why would you ally yourself to that?
And, you know, you have the Christian churches who will criticize, the conservatives who will criticize the liberal Christians who attach themselves to LGBT and elevate and worship LGBT, and yet they do it with Trump.
And the two of them are both proud of their sins.
But it really comes down to fear.
And I saw this on World.
It says, are conservative Christians driven by fear?
You know, you got a lot of the so-called leaders tell you to vote out of fear.
And a lot of these leaders were also telling you four years ago, like Al Mohler was telling you to take the vaccine out of fear.
And do it because you love your neighbor and so forth.
All these different things.
Well, the question is, you know, should Christians be looking to Christ as their leader?
Because if you're looking to Christ as your leader, you don't have fear, right?
Why would you fear?
If you really see yourself in his hand, what would you fear?
If Christians ever, and I say Christians at large, right?
If the church at large Begins to see itself in the hand of Christ.
If they see Christ as their leader and their protector, that's going to make a big difference.
But if they don't, they have to keep quiet.
They have to not rock the boat.
They're ashamed of their faith, and they live in fear.
And it's being sold to them by these people who have thousands of people show up every week to their building.
And, or they run seminaries like Al Mohler, and, you know, they've got to toe that line.
Or they want to have connections to politicians.
You know, they want to be seen standing next to Trump or praying for Trump or whatever.
You know, you stop and think about it.
Christ said, those who are not sick don't need a physician.
If you think you've got everything handled and you don't need any forgiveness, you're not going to get forgiveness.
And, you know, you see that with Trump, don't you?
I've played for you the clips where Frank Luntz and Jake Tapper, of all people, talked to him.
Don't you think you need forgiveness?
You say that, you know, you kind of nod your head to the Christians and so forth.
No, I don't really think I need any forgiveness.
I really don't think I need any forgiveness.
That is the most dangerous position.
Where are all these people who are praying for him?
Do they really love him?
If they won't tell him, That he does need forgiveness?
And where he can find forgiveness?
You got all these pastors like Paula White and this Hispanic guy, Maldonado or something, was it?
The guy who has six homes, a private jet, $120 million in terms of his net assets and all the rest of it.
Does he talk to Trump and say, you know, you stand condemned before God and And the only way that you're going to stop that condemnation is through Christ.
They've never given him the gospel.
These people stand next to him.
They make a big show out of praying for him.
They hate him.
How could you do that over and over again?
I'm a spiritual advisor, says Paula White.
How could you do that over and over again?
You don't tell him the gospel?
What they're doing is they're feeding his greed because these people are greedy.
Paula White and these other prosperity gospel preachers are just all about the money, and so is Trump.
And they just, you know, they just grift off of each other.
They have nothing to do with the gospel.
They have no hope to give him.
And they are trying to put that spirit of fear in you.
And it's not just the prosperity gospel people either.
There's a lot of these Baptist conservative preachers out there who are doing it.
I said the Archbishop Vigano, who is a conservative in this politics, he's doing that as well.
And so this guy says, you know, talking about fear, he said at times, it seems like the media is obsessed with the fears that conservative Christians supposedly possess.
And with that, he's talking about how they always call us transphobic or homophobic or this.
It's always a phobia there, right?
So he says, well, you know, they have a Christianophobia, Christianophobia, maybe.
I think we just need to stop with all the fraudulent psychology, all the Sigmund Freud.
Freud is a fraud.
Let's stop with all the phobia stuff.
Let's just understand we've got nothing to fear but God.
And if you fear God, He is a merciful God as well.
But it has been argued that these fears have turned Christians into monsters, made them afraid of women, motivated their voting, and led them to become intolerant.
Scholars have argued that conservative Christianity has created a culture of fear.
And they've called conservative Christianity the religion of fear.
Well, I've got to say, you know, when you look at these people who are telling you you've got to vote for Trump, what are they doing?
They're telling you that out of fear.
They're trying to gen that fear with people.
They even accuse Christians of fearing that they are declining and thus need to increase their fertility.
He says, as I studied Christianophobia and He said, I realize that the academics have a powerful motivation to focus on negative characteristics with Christians, particularly white evangelicals.
It's not simply that certain academics seek to portray Christians in a negative light, but it's also the fact that they are hesitant to see the same negative traits among other groups, particularly groups that they're a member of.
You can always see the moat in the other person's eye, the log in the other person's eye, the splinter, and you don't see the big one in yours.
But these people are full of fear, aren't they, on the left?
They have the atmosphere of global warming and CO2. They have Trump fear, just like a lot of these conservative Christians are pushing the fear of Lala.
Well, these people push the fear of Trump.
When it became apparent that Biden was highly unlikely to win re-election, it was not merely the tone of disappointment, but it was a sound of desperation, and it was also the sound of fear.
And I say that, you know, he says, ah, look at this, and I see that they have a lot of fear, and they can't see their fear.
Can we see our fear?
You know, they were afraid with Biden there.
It's collapsing.
He's not going to win.
Everything is lost.
Are we seeing the same type of thing on our side?
This is what was the basis of the grift of Stop the Steal and Trump's Save America was the fear.
Got a lot of people into a lot of trouble unnecessarily.
I said there's no reason to go there.
I said it's going to be a trap.
They trap us with fear.
They destroy us.
They use depopulation shots on us because of fear.
We should not have fear like these other people, but I see that same type of fear that he sees on the left about Biden.
I see that same type of fear on the right being sold by people who should be Christian leaders.
Do we believe that those who lament about the end of democracy?
See, both sides are saying this.
And if we're not careful, if we don't push back against this fear, this fear is going to be used to create a civil war one way or the other.
That's why they're doing it.
The fear that their political or religious group is going to be left out.
Well, I just have to say that as Christians, we're not given a spirit of fear.
So if you've got a Christian leader who is selling you fear, then they're not selling you Christ.
They're selling you something else.
They have a spirit that is opposed to Christ.
That spirit of fear is coming from Satan.
It's not coming from Christ.
And these politicians, wannabe politicians, who are standing up in front of these churches and telling people you've got to vote for Trump, You've got to vote.
Or it's a sin.
They're selling you a spirit of fear.
They're not giving you a message from Christ.
They're giving you a message from Satan.
What is it that political progressives fear?
And how might that fear be manifested in their actions in our society?
He said, my recent work points to a distinct source of fear for political progressives, and that is conservative Christians.
They fear Christians.
They don't fear God.
They fear Christians.
Well, he says Christians can say that they have a right to fear the larger culture as well.
Ultimately, I cannot determine if the fear within progressives is higher or more consequential than the fear within Christians.
As I said yesterday, it's repeated over and over again in the Bible, fear not, fear not, fear not.
Why?
Why?
Because God rules.
God rules even when we have totalitarians in place in our society.
God still rules.
And even when the wicked succeed, God rules.
I ask the question in Psalms so many times.
Why do the wicked prosper?
Why do they succeed?
Well, we take solace in the fact that God is in control.
And that he sees what is happening.
So let them fear.
We don't have that spirit.
If we have that spirit, you better cast it out.
And you better stop paying attention to these people who are pushing that fear.
But at the same time, there are things that we need to do.
Why not focus more on what we can do something about?
You may not be able to keep the politician that you fear out of office, but I'll tell you what you can do.
You can keep Disney out of your house, right?
You can keep some of these things away from your kids.
This is an excellent article from The Center.
It's time for Christian parents to completely abandon Disney for good.
You see, there are things that you can actually do that really will make a difference, a bigger difference in your life.
And this is an excellent article talking about Disney.
It says, the war on children is real.
And Disney is on the front lines waging war against them.
And let's be honest, everybody knows that Disney's own sexual revolution isn't just a weird little rebranding in order to stay relevant in the modern cultural zeitgeist.
In other words, they're not following what is there in the culture.
They're setting the culture.
Disney has become a full-fledged weapon of the left, carefully constructed to shove queer theory and homosexual propaganda right into the minds of children.
Disney has completely abandoned the concept of entertainment.
It's now a school of indoctrination.
Gone are the days of wholesome, family-friendly stories with clear moral foundations.
Today's Disney is sending up a relentless barrage of sexual confusion, designed to make children not only accept, but to celebrate.
The radical redefinition of gender and of sexuality.
And what's even worse, Christian parents, of all people, are blind to see it.
Disney's strategy isn't just about adding a token queer character here or there.
No, they've positioned themselves as cultural warriors.
Openly determined to normalize this perverse homosexual agenda.
Just look at their loud and proud endorsement of pride nonsense and their open hostility towards laws that defended parental rights like those in Florida.
Because if you don't want parents to know what you're doing with the kids, you are by definition a groomer.
By definition, you are a pedophile when you're talking to them about sex and you don't want the parents to know.
You know what you're doing is wrong.
That's why you don't want the parents to find out.
They have abandoned, Disney has abandoned the family-friendly persona that built the company into what it is, and it's become a megaphone for the sexual revolution, a transformation that ought to make any Christian parent sit up and take notice.
Disney isn't just betraying the values that they once pretended to stand for.
They're actively working to dominate the world with its own sexual ethics.
You know, just stop and think about it.
And this is, we see the same thing happening really with the public schools as well.
People want to see the public schools or they want to see Disney as what it was that they experienced.
And, you know, the public school that I experienced, we had kids bringing guns to school for target practice and things like that.
We didn't have mass shootings.
And we didn't have metal detectors and we didn't have police officers there and all the rest of this stuff.
We didn't have all this gender grooming, the sexual grooming of kids.
None of that was there.
But it's there today.
And you better realistically look at it.
If you're a parent, if you're old enough to be a parent, you can't imagine what the schools have become.
That's why we saw the big explosion in homeschooling after parents were able to see what was going on in their kids' classroom.
Always, they would dismiss it in the past.
Well, it's not happening in my kids' classroom.
Oh, yes, it is.
And when you look at Disney, I remember growing up how Disney used to do great things about history.
You know, Johnny Tremaine, other things like that.
Davy Crockett, you know, he loved Americana.
And they were wholesome stories that had heroes in them and taught about American history and all that kind of...
Very different than what you saw in Hollywood, the rest of Hollywood.
The rest of Hollywood had been taken over by these perverts who...
Just listen to what Shirley Temple said about MGM. When I left Fox, I went to MGM for one picture.
Thank goodness, only one.
And when I got there with my mother...
We were separated.
She went into the office of Louis B. Mayer, and I went into the office of Arthur Freed.
And he was going to talk to me about a movie he wanted to put me in.
I'm 12 years old, you know.
And I thought he was a producer, but instead he was an exhibitor.
And I'd never seen anyone naked before, except myself.
So I had no clue about what was happening.
So it struck me so funny, I laughed at him, and I laughed uproariously.
I had tears, you know, and he got infuriated.
And he said, out, out, out, go!
Did you tell your mother?
Well, I went down.
I was very quiet.
I went down and met her in the lobby of the administration building.
She came out very quietly from Louis B. Mayer's office, and we walked hand in hand silently to the car, which was unusual.
We got in the car driving home.
I said, Mom, you won't believe what happened to me.
And I told her what happened, and she got kind of quiet.
She said, Well, you don't know what happened to me.
And Louis B. Mayer wasn't as bad as Freed was to me, but he came on to my mother.
And so we both decided that we didn't like MGM much.
It was better at Fox.
And it was better at Disney, right?
You know, there was a time, like I said, you know, Walt Disney would do magic and stuff like that, you know, fairy tales and things like that, and a lot of people criticize him for that, but I think he was using it as a plot device, but then it became, you know, now it's become a big deal.
You know, now it's all about, oh, let's do incantation.
I mean, it's literally into the witchcraft stuff, openly.
You could argue whether or not that was their intention before, but there's no question that's their intention now.
That was Shirley Temple, of course, talking about what Hollywood was like.
It was always that way.
You know, the big Hollywood studios.
That's why Disney was very different.
And you know, it actually, I think, got better from a moral standpoint when Walt died and his brother Roy took over.
They went through a period of, I guess you could say, artistic decline, but it was actually more wholesome.
You know, there's a period of time we had Kurt Russell doing these movies like the computer wore tennis shoes and stuff.
It's kind of silly stuff.
But, you know, you also had Roy did his version of Robin Hood, and it was all about, it's kind of like an anti-government tax rally.
That's where these guys were coming from.
You know, Hollywood was not American.
Hollywood was always anti-American.
It was filled with a bunch of immigrants who were communists, and they really did not like American culture.
And they made it pretty clear that they wanted to move against it.
Frankfurt School and others like that.
But Disney was different in that respect, but now it's not.
He says, here we are with Christian parents still flocking to Disney World, still signing up for Disney Plus, and filling their homes with Disney-branded garbage.
This isn't just naive, it's complicity.
By dragging their kids into this sewage, which is, now you can, there is no question that that's what Disney is today.
Like I said, with Walt, you can look at some of the magic stuff and say, well, I don't think we want to do that.
No question that's where it is today.
These parents are willingly offering them up to a culture that is grounding in the excrement of sexual depravity.
And by the way, you know, when you look at it, it was Roy's daughter, I think, is Abigail Disney.
I think she's Roy's daughter.
He sends her to the best schools, and she comes out as a Marxist, right?
You see this open over and over again.
You know, the two of them really reflected Main Street USA at the turn of the century.
That's Main Street USA where you enter Disney World.
That's not what she grew up in.
This is a culture that not only rejects God's design for human sexuality, but actively spits in his face.
This isn't just bad parenting.
It is negligence at best, treason at worst.
Disney's commitment to this radical agenda runs deep.
It's not about a single film or a character.
This is systematic, deliberate campaign to groom children into embracing sexual chaos.
Disney is molding an entire generation's view of sexuality, one subtly placed scene at a time.
And trust me, they know exactly what they're doing.
It's all about desensitization through mind-melting them with constant exposure.
They know exactly what they're doing, just like, you know, the MGM guys knew what they were doing with Shirley Temple.
You say, if you look at movies like Lightyear or Elemental or Inside Out 2, they're nothing more than Trojan horses or the LGBT agenda.
A casual same-sex kiss here, a non-binary character there, it's all part of the plan.
Yet Christian parents shrug it off, pretending these moments are just part of the story of an otherwise good movie.
But let's be honest.
Either they're blind to the manipulation or worse, they just don't care.
Many Christian parents still just don't get it or don't care.
They've let nostalgia for the Disney of their youth cloud their judgment.
In the same way that people let nostalgia for the school that they attended as a child cloud their judgment of what the schools have turned into.
How could the same company that gave us The Lion King and Beauty and the Beast possibly be leading their children into spiritual danger?
Well, that is the clever trap.
It's crystal clear.
Parents are commanded to train up their child in the way he should go.
And that doesn't mean handing them over to Disney to be disciplined into the sexual revolution or to take them and drop them off at a government grooming center that we call public school.
Letting your children be shaped by Disney's twisted worldview or the schools is an abdication of your God-given role as a parent.
This isn't about being overly strict or paranoid either.
It's not about fear of them either.
You either understand what's going on, you accept what's happening, or you just are blindly walking through this in a fog.
It's about recognizing the very real battle for the hearts and minds of children that Disney has picked a side.
It's just not God's side.
Like I said about that rich pastor, mega church, MAGA pastor.
He said, this is a battle between good and evil.
And I said, he doesn't even know...
What battlefield he's on.
He's on the wrong battlefield and he doesn't know where the war is.
This is where the war is.
It's not in the presidential election.
The Disney of today is not the magical wonderland from your childhood memories.
It is a battleground run by militant queers whose mission is to win over your children to their side.
It's ideological warfare.
With fairy tales and catchy tunes as the Trojan horse.
Disney isn't just selling entertainment.
They're selling a perverse worldview that is sugar-coated for easy consumption.
Yet it rots the soul-like decaying teeth.
Yeah, a spoonful of sugar helps debauchery go down, right?
So, on the other hand, another movie that just dropped, a good movie.
Let's talk about what is positive.
There's a movie that just dropped.
It's called Average Joe.
It hit theaters October 11th.
This is the first I saw of it.
We don't keep up with what's going on in the movies anymore.
Haven't been for years, really.
This is about an ex-atheist prayer fight that led to a harrowing battle and a monumental win for religious liberty.
And, of course, this is Joe Kennedy.
The average Joe is Joe Kennedy, the high school football coach, that was fired for praying silently on the 50-yard line.
And he took that fight all the way to the Supreme Court and won.
He took a stand for God publicly.
He took a knee in prayer.
And he refused to bow to their tyranny.
And it was tyranny.
It was in defiance of the Constitution.
And the Supreme Court agreed with that.
But it is what it is.
Whether he won in the Supreme Court or not, he was still right.
And that's what we have to understand.
Whether or not we went in the Supreme Court, we're still in the right if we bow our knee to God.
You don't have to bow your knee to the Supreme Court.
The movie follows the release of his book last year.
The book was called Average Joe, One Man's Faith and the Fight to Change a Nation.
Both projects touch on his seven years in a legal battle with a school district in Washington State, which ultimately led to the 6-3 Supreme Court ruling in Kennedy v.
Bremerton School District in June of 2022.
I'm surprised it's that long ago.
Yeah, that's more than two years ago.
I thought it happened more recently.
A decision that upheld his right to pray after games and found that the government should not punish private religious acts like prayer.
He said, I wanted everybody to see from the beginning where I came from.
He said, the home that he was born in, he said he was born as an unwanted pregnancy.
And he grew up in foster homes.
He said all of that.
The backstory to see what led me to be the guy to stand up for what was right and what has happened since then.
His life hasn't been easy as he was in the foster care system and he struggled with anger during his earlier years for being abandoned by his parents.
Before prayer became his anchor, he was an atheist, and he had no interest in anything eternal.
He said, it was really my wife.
I was failing as a husband.
He said, everywhere I went, I seemed to just wreck people's lives.
Amid all this turmoil, his wife, Denise, who was a Christian, started to rub off on him, he said.
With his life disintegrating in front of him, he had to make a decision to continue on the same destructive path or to embrace faith.
I said, I finally looked at this with her.
He says, as things were rapidly falling apart, I had no other place to turn.
I fell onto the altar and I kind of made a deal with God.
I said, God, if you give me my wife...
I'll give you my life.
That commitment struck and transformed his marriage, and beyond that, it led him to tackle the years-long legal battle that eventually expanded religious rights for all Americans.
I didn't know that God was really going to use my life like he did, he said.
And he said the path that led to the Supreme Court battle was an intriguing one with the central components taking form after he found himself entering high school athletics.
Reflecting back on the coaching job, he said it really was a God thing.
I didn't know anything about football, he said.
I had just gotten out of the Marine Corps.
I didn't want to do anything.
I thought I was retired.
I was out on a run one day, and the athletic director pulls up alongside and started a conversation with me.
He found out I was a Marine, and he said, have you ever thought about coaching?
At first, Kennedy said he wasn't interested.
But the athletic director kept pursuing him, something he now believes was likely divine intervention.
He said, eventually I watched the movie Facing the Giants and those Kendrick guys.
He said they put a hurting on my heart and God just spoke to me and said, hey, this is your calling.
And that's where it all came from.
I accepted the job of being a coach and took it right out of the movie to give God the glory after every game.
His decision to play on the 50-yard line after games became the impetus for his legal battle.
He said, when they told me I couldn't do it, I couldn't understand that.
Something so simple as a prayer, and I didn't want to create waves with the school, initially he was told to stop praying with the players, so he complied.
And he never prayed with his team again.
But he didn't stop his private prayer on the 50-yard line after the games.
And that became a problem for the school.
You know, just like these people who silently pray outside abortion claims.
Oh, you can't do that.
He said, they told me I could no longer do that because people could still see me in public praying.
Well, that's where the rub came in.
They finally gave me a letter of direction that said I needed to choose between my faith and my job, and I was going to be put on suspension until I complied with the school district's policies.
That was a no-win situation.
No American should have to choose between their faith and their job.
After losing his job, he fought back and he eventually won.
He ushered in the situation that he believes is truly beneficial for all.
He said the great thing about the Supreme Court is that they opened it up, and we have more religious liberty now than we've had in the past 50 years.
Because 50 years ago, we had people who came in, like the current organization Freedom From Religion, That's not what the Constitution says.
It's a free exercise of religion.
And you're free to do that regardless of whether you work for the government.
Regardless of where you are.
You could be at a school.
You could be in front of an abortion clinic.
You don't ever lose those God-given rights to worship God.
Michelle Obama, thank you very much for the tip.
I appreciate that.
It says, peace be with you and your family.
Thank you.
AAP, Rumble Seat, Disney has allegedly become openly weaponized against kids.
Don't pay or buy into having your children mind-controlled and groomed.
Yes, take control.
That's right.
Take control.
Don't be passive.
Don't think you're doing something by being so laser-focused on the election.
All that will do is make you fearful.
And Sue Friedman, thank you for the tip.
Have a good day, David and family.
I'm a long-time listener.
I pray for you and your family daily.
Thank you so much.
If Travis and his wife are preferring not to have their baby be issued a birth certificate and social security number while at the hospital, all they have to do is tell the hospital that they've not decided on a name.
Oh, that's good.
I'll pass that.
Thank you, Sue.
I appreciate that.
If you don't provide a name, they can't issue a birth certificate or social security card.
That's good.
The David Knight Show is a critical thinking super spreader.

Financial support or simply telling others about the show causes this dangerous information to spread farther.
