	Thank you.
	Thank you.
	Using free speech to free minds.
	Music.
	You're listening to The David Knight Show.
	That's the clock strikes 13.
	It's Thursday, the 7th of November, year of our Lord 2024.
	Well, we're going to take a look at some of the rumored changes coming from the Trump administration, as we've now had Lala painfully admitting defeat.
	And it was painful for her.
	And so we're going to play a little bit of the back and forth, not so much of liberal tears, but we're going to take a look at hatred and lawfare.
	And how it's going on both sides.
	What are the chances of Trump being pardoned?
	What are the chances of Trump giving pardons?
	And is he going to listen to people like Bannon who wants to escalate the fight just for revenge?
	We'll talk about that.
	We're also going to talk about crime that is now going to be punished again in California, smart cities, and what is happening with TSMC, the largest, if not the largest, semiconductor company in the world, moving to Phoenix, the clash of cultures, neo-feudalism.
	We've got a lot of things to talk about.
	about we'll be right back well i want to say before we began i want to thank everybody for your prayers uh Travis's wife and new son are doing great.
	He was born, we're not really sure what time.
	What's that?
	11.
	Oh, okay.
	So his birthday is yesterday?
	Oh, okay.
	11.27 p.m.
	And just before midnight.
	So he's 11.6, not 11.7.
	But they're doing great.
	And so thank you so much for your prayers.
	We really do appreciate it.
	We're all very happy about that.
	Let me talk about it.
	People who are not too happy about what this week has delivered.
	We'll start out with Sunny Hostin on The View.
	And it's an interesting clip because she starts calling everybody else racist.
	And this is what they do.
	This is what all of these people are doing.
	Everybody's a racist because you didn't vote for Lala because of her race.
	And so they just project these values onto everybody else.
	Here is Sunny Hostin.
	I'm surprised at the result, but I'm not surprised.
	As a woman of color, I was so hopeful that a mixed-race woman married to a Jewish guy could be elected president of this country.
	That's her qualification.
	I think this was a referendum of cultural resentment in this country.
	Yeah, it doesn't have anything to do with policy or competence or anything like that.
	It's all about DEI. And people, in a sense, she's right.
	It is about resentment of your racism, your DEI values.
	Why is Sunny Hostin there?
	Because she's a black woman, quite frankly.
	Would she be there for any other reason?
	No.
	And you can say that about all these people on The View.
	It's all identity politics that they're playing.
	That's what they live by.
	That's all that they see.
	To them, you're nothing but your skin color and your imagined gender, right?
	And that's what people are pushing back against, and rightfully so.
	She's wearing all black, and she says that she's worried that her daughter will now have less civil rights than she does.
	I'm worried about that, too, because I watched Trump do lockdowns, saw the Biden people do mandates.
	I've seen both of them putting out censorship and speech rules, surveillance and police state, pushing us into wars, crippling debt and taxation.
	And those are things on which there's no difference between them.
	You know, when you look at the fake pandemic and all the rest of this stuff and all the kill shot that's going out there, there's no difference with either party, not just with Trump or Lala.
	This is a selection, folks.
	Whether or not you think the votes were counted honestly.
	It was a selection.
	They selected Trump.
	They pushed him in.
	We'll talk about what's going to happen now with all these made-up criminal charges.
	Everybody understood they were made-up criminal charges.
	It was outrageous what they were doing.
	And it made Trump into a martyr.
	They selected him.
	He didn't have to talk about his past administration.
	He didn't have to defend what he had done.
	He didn't have to talk about the vaccine.
	He was able to escape all debates, all challenges.
	And of course, she never stood for election.
	You know, this is the first time that she ever ran for president, really, and got a vote.
	She dropped out before the first votes were held in 2020.
	She was selected, too.
	It was incredibly phony.
	And so, yeah, in a sense, Sonny Hostin is right.
	I think a large part of this was a pushback against what she represents.
	DEI. This kind of meritless racism and sexism.
	And everything they see is racism and sexism.
	She said this.
	Black women tried to save this country again last night.
	Did they?
	What we do not have is white women who voted about 52% for Trump.
	Uneducated white women, in my understanding.
	And you have Latino men actually voting more for him.
	She sees everything along racial lines, sex, gender lines.
	It's just amazing.
	What a disgusting person she is.
	And I think Americans have had it with this nonsense.
	Really had it with it.
	Very hateful person, quite frankly.
	She said, so why do you think uneducated white women voting against reproductive health freedoms, and why do you think Latino men voted in favor of someone who is going to support a majority of his community?
	So, another one also dressed in black and in mourning.
	So, yeah, reproductive freedom, it's a license to kill.
	It's not about reproductive freedom.
	You don't have the freedom to kill anybody.
	Never should.
	And to talk about uneducated white women, are these the white women that didn't get a degree in gender studies or something at a university?
	Does that make you educated or does that make you indoctrinated?
	What a bunch of nonsense.
	And it's true.
	In a sense, not education.
	But the unfortunate experience of having gone to college and paid a lot of money to be brainwashed into all this nonsense like her.
	I don't think white women like being called uneducated white women, said Alyssa Farrah Griffin.
	Also in black.
	They're all in black.
	It was morning.
	Morning in America with a U. Whoopi Goldberg refused to even mention Trump's name.
	He's the president.
	I'm still not going to say his name.
	And then you've got Nancy Pelosi, who is seen at the concession speech, you know, holding back the tears there barely.
	Just before the election, she had this to say.
	Now, remember that Nancy Pelosi is 84.
	She just got reelected.
	I mean, she's doing fine.
	Mentally, let's say, except for the distress of losing the election.
	She shows no signs, really, I guess, of cognitive decline, except that she's saying that Trump is showing signs of cognitive decline.
	I don't think he's going to be able to finish the term, so forth, right?
	He's six years younger than her.
	He could finish the entire term and still be two years younger than her, but she just ran for re-election at 84.
	Good morning.
	Wonderful to be with you again on this weekend before the election.
	I think that what the ex-president just said is a further indication of his cognitive degeneration.
	You saw recently when he was talking about whether he chose electrocution or being eaten by sharks.
	Something's very wrong there.
	And it also is diminishing the power of the press, which is the guardian of our freedom in our country.
	So I think people who might be thinking about voting...
	Freedom of the press?
	She talks about that?
	...that he can't last as president for four years with his brain deteriorating at the rate that it is, and it's clearly evident.
	And they may be voting for President Vance, which would be a horrible thing for our country.
	You're right.
	Our family has experienced the violence.
	Where is Nancy?
	Where is Nancy?
	Coming into our house, violating the sanctity of our home, the safety of my husband, looking for me, echoing what was said on January 6th in the Capitol.
	Where is Nancy?
	Where is Nancy?
	Was coming up to punish me for what I had said about Donald Trump.
	I don't know.
	Can her eyebrows get any higher?
	That's what I want to know.
	How many facelifts does it take to get your eyebrows halfway up to your hairline?
	But, yeah, kind of, again, projection, isn't it?
	The racist calling everybody else racist.
	And the lady who at 84 just got re-elected.
	And she's showing a little bit of signs of cognitive decline, I think, there in that interview.
	Talking about how old Trump is.
	And then you've got Fetterman.
	Fetterman, who has had really pretty much a recovery since he first got elected.
	I mean, he was out of it.
	But he was going to go on with Jon Stewart.
	And then this happened.
	Whoops, that didn't happen.
	Okay, well, we don't have that clip.
	He canceled just 30 seconds before he was supposed to come on.
	And Jon Stewart was, oh, well, then this happened, and he's making a joke of it, but he doesn't know what to say.
	I looked it up.
	I thought, how long?
	I've never watched his show.
	I've never seen one of his shows.
	I've occasionally seen a clip or two of it.
	How long is his show?
	He's got to carry this without a guest.
	I've looked it up.
	It's a half-hour show.
	Come on, it's little baby things.
	You know, you do a half-hour live show?
	Try a three-hour live show.
	And you just have to roll the punches.
	And I looked it up.
	22 minutes is actually the amount of time that he's actually on air.
	The rest of the time is commercials.
	And that's pretty much par for the course.
	You know, out of each hour on typical clock, which is what I had when I was at Infowars, there's only about, you know, a third of the time it's going to be commercials.
	So, yeah, it was tough.
	Tough for Jon Stewart.
	So sorry for him.
	I didn't know his show was live, frankly.
	And then we go to Joe Scarborough.
	And he said, the loss by Lala shows that black and Hispanic men have race issues and misogyny.
	And of course, his co-host is Mika, was dressed in black as well.
	So Lala has race issues and misogyny for black and Hispanic men.
	They will never learn.
	They'll never learn.
	And maybe we will never learn.
	Because how do we get people like this?
	And how do we get people...
	The astonishing thing is that anybody would vote for Lala.
	Or Trump.
	Right?
	But the astonishing thing is that there's absolutely nothing there from her.
	She even plagiarized...
	I've never seen that before in a campaign.
	Where he says, I'm not going to tax waitresses tips.
	And she says, me neither.
	And I've never seen anybody as camera shy and as shy of being interviewed either as Lala.
	We all know why.
	But people would still vote for her because of racism, because of identity politics, because of DEI. And if we're going to stop that, folks, we're going to have to stop the pubic schools.
	It's time that we stop giving them money.
	It's time that we stop churning this stuff out.
	And I mean, it's not just, you know, K through 12.
	It's also especially, especially college.
	But that's where this all began a couple of generations ago.
	You would only get this stuff if you went to college.
	Now they're pushing it down to K through 12.
	And nobody's getting an education.
	Now on the other side, you've got, as deranged as these people are, You have other people on the other side that are delusional and dangerous.
	3D chess.
	Dangerous, delusional, and deranged.
	Steve Bannon does another one of his vengeance tour things.
	And he wants vengeance.
	And he's pushing for this publicly.
	I just want to remind you, though, of what was said in 2020.
	On October the 31st, to a group of people, I played this earlier this week, to a group of people who were, he was telling them what was going to happen with the 2020 election.
	More of our people vote early that count.
	Theirs voted male.
	And so they're going to have a natural disadvantage, and Trump's going to take advantage of it.
	That's our strategy.
	He's going to clear himself a winner.
	So when you wake up Wednesday morning, it's going to be a firestorm.
	We're going to have Antifa crazy, the media crazy, the courts are crazy, and Trump's going to be sitting there mocking and tweeting shit out, you lose.
	I'm the winner.
	I'm the king.
	And he'll be all over.
	He'll be going, where's Hunter?
	Is Hunter on a crack pipe?
	I mean, no.
	He'll be...
	Because then it doesn't matter.
	Remember, here's the thing.
	After that, Trump never has to go to a voter again.
	He's going to fire Ray the FBI direction.
	He's going to say, fuck you.
	How about that?
	Because he's never going to...
	He's done his last election.
	Oh, he's going to be off the chase.
	He's going to be crazy.
	Also, if Trump is losing...
	By 10 or 11 o'clock at night, it's going to be even crazier.
	No, because he's going to sit right there and say they stole it.
	I'm directing the Attorney General to shut down all ballot places in all 50 states.
	It's going to be enough.
	He's not going out easy.
	If Biden's winning, Trump is going to do some crazy shit.
	Yeah, that guy is some crazy excrement himself.
	You know, he just came back from jail.
	I think you can say that he's maybe even worse now after spending some time in jail.
	Why did he go to jail?
	He went to jail because he was too stupid to plead the fifth.
	And I mean stupid.
	He was absolutely boneheaded stupid.
	Alex Jones had the same situation.
	What did he do?
	He went and just said to every question, I plead the fifth.
	I plead the fifth.
	That's all you have to do.
	Bannon didn't know that.
	Or did he want to be a martyr, right?
	Oh, now he's got street creds because he went to prison because he was stupid, right?
	A little bit too much hubris there, Steve.
	And fortunately, we didn't have Trump doing what he was pushing him to do.
	And I hope Trump doesn't go off the chain and go crazy listening to people like Steve Bannon again.
	A lot of this stuff is just for audience.
	You know, just like Alex tears his shirt off and all this other kind of stuff.
	A lot of it is just hubris and professional wrestling garbage.
	But he's still at it.
	This is what he just said.
	You stole the 2020 election.
	You've mocked and ridiculed and put people in prison and broken people's lives.
	He said they were going to claim it was stolen even if it wasn't stolen.
	Everything is getting swept out.
	Biden's getting swept out.
	Kamala Harris is getting swept out.
	MSNBC is getting swept out.
	The Justice Department is getting swept out.
	The FBI is getting swept out.
	You people suck, okay?
	And now you're going to pay the price for trying to destroy this country.
	And I'm going to tell you, we're going to get to the bottom of where are the 600,000 votes?
	You manufactured them to steal the...
	Isn't that amazing?
	He's still going back four years ago.
	Go back a couple of months before that and say, we're going to get to the bottom of what happened with this lockdown and pandemic.
	You want to do that, Steve?
	You shill.
	You Goldman Sachs grifting con man.
	And he's been convicted more than once of being a con man.
	It's just disgusting to see this guy.
	He belongs in jail.
	He has grifted his own supporters.
	He and Guo, just like Alex did, just like Trump did, quite frankly, with January the 6th.
	But he still wants to go back and look at the elections.
	We can either have a backward-looking vengeance, or we can look ahead.
	Yeah, you do need to get rid of the FBI. All of it.
	You got RFK Jr.
	out there saying, well, we need to take a look at the CIA. We need to get rid of a few people here and there.
	No, get rid of it.
	Get rid of it.
	Just clean it out.
	Start from scratch if you think you need something like that.
	I don't think you need something like that, quite frankly.
	We need to be a bit more transparent.
	Yeah, I know.
	You're going to say that I'm naive.
	I'm not naive.
	I think we lead from the front.
	I was a good guy.
	He's not these backstabbing spooks.
	And every time you create an agency like this, you had, you know, Truman created the CIA, created the NSA with an executive order.
	All that stuff happened right after World War II. And I think he thought he was moving against the FBI, which he said was trending towards the Gestapo.
	And yet, you're not going to stop one Gestapo agency by creating two other Gestapo agencies.
	Even if you pretend that they're going to be foreign only.
	That'll never be the case.
	And so, this is a guy who is saying in 2020, we're going to lose and we're going to say that we won.
	And he's still doing that.
	And he's still demanding more of that.
	And he's still trying to focus everybody backwards.
	Backwards.
	So, he says, yeah, Trump is a good man.
	Why didn't this good man...
	Pardon the January of the Sixth people.
	He wants to talk about how January of the Sixth people were there.
	Well, again, he put them, he used the January of the Sixth people as a shield.
	He could have pardoned them, but that would have increased his jeopardy.
	So he let them go to jail.
	He let them twist in the wind.
	So what happens to Trump's criminal and civil cases now that he's been re-elected?
	So I wanted to get CNN's take on this, because they're going to be the most hostile to it.
	And again, the media is so divided.
	You can either get sycophants or you can get critics.
	I'd rather, in this particular case, see the most critical eye.
	They said, never before has a criminal defendant been elected to the nation's highest office.
	Just as an ex-president has never been criminally charged until last year.
	Does that mean anything?
	Everybody discounted that because that is absolutely meaningless.
	And we all knew it.
	They made a martyr out of him.
	As I said before, it was part of the selection process to do that to him.
	And if they had done it once...
	And it had turned him into a martyr, then you could say, okay, well, they really, you know, in the words of George W. Bush, they misunderstood what would happen here.
	But they didn't misunderstand.
	They kept doing it again and again and again, and they knew exactly what they were doing.
	And you had Democrat operatives saying, you're making a martyr out of him.
	I was saying it as well.
	Everybody knew that was the case.
	You had DeSantis, who was, at the very beginning, He decides that he's going to try to focus on the issue of CBDC. He holds a 20-minute conference, Stop Digital Big Brother Money, where he had the signs and all the rest of the stuff.
	He talks for 20 minutes about the evil of CBDC, and then opens up for questions.
	The first question is, what about Trump?
	Are you going to allow them to extradite him to New York?
	And it was just all about Trump.
	And all this political persecution.
	So as of Wednesday, Smith, Jack Smith, is in active talks with the Justice Department leadership about how to end the federal cases against Trump.
	This is CNN talking.
	A DOJ official familiar with the discussions told CNN, Drudge has got articles saying there's a lot of pressure that is building on Biden to pardon him.
	That would be a very smart thing for Biden to do.
	That'd be a way for him to go out on a high note, but it's also going to be necessary for him to protect himself.
	That'd be a real insurance policy to keep Trump from coming after the real crimes and the real obvious crimes of the Biden family.
	And he's mentioned this before.
	He said, they're the real crime family.
	And if you look at what Hunter Biden was doing, what Joe Biden was doing in Ukraine and many other places with China and so forth, there is a ton of real crime that is there.
	And I don't want to see this developing into a tit-for-tat type of thing, kind of setting up a precedent that if you lose the election, you get prosecuted.
	Maybe the way that we don't have that happen is to have a better class of people.
	You know, they're not sending us their best people when they get to the ballot.
	We get a bunch of criminals and grifters on the ballot.
	Maybe that's the problem.
	But still, you know, if Trump does go against him, that's going to be the issue.
	So Biden, for his own personal benefit, to be remembered as somebody who took the high road, but also to protect himself from prosecution, needs to pardon Trump.
	Will he do it?
	I don't know.
	So they go through the different things.
	You've got state charges in New York.
	What do you do about that?
	Well, Trump is scheduled to appear in New York courtroom November the 26th.
	He had his conviction earlier this year on 34 counts of falsifying business records.
	Again, just obvious nonsense, obviously political persecution.
	Trump's attorneys are expected to enter a filing in the coming days arguing that as president-elect he is entitled to the same constitutional protections as a sitting president.
	And should be protected from any action by state prosecutors.
	And so, you know, they can't full-on pardon him with that, since it's a state charge, but they can argue that.
	And again, the question is, what is Leticia James going to do?
	She's one of the most corrupt politicians anywhere in the country.
	She came after people left and right that didn't live in New York.
	Oh, maybe somebody bought your product here in New York, as she did about silver.
	She did that to Infowars.
	She also did it to Jim Baker, who was selling like a silver toothpaste or something like that.
	And we all know that silver kills infectious diseases.
	It's wonderful.
	She tried to pretend that wasn't true.
	Try to come after them for fraud.
	And, you know, in his defense, Alex never said that silver toothpaste was going to cure a flu or COVID or whatever they want to make up.
	I mean, that's just ridiculous.
	Anyway.
	They had federal cases in D.C. and in Florida.
	Trump's election victory is poised to have the greatest impact of the two federal criminal cases brought against him by Smith in Washington, D.C. and in Florida.
	Trump, when he was asked about what he would do, he said, will you pardon yourself?
	Will you fire Jack Smith?
	He says, oh, it's so easy.
	It's so easy.
	I would fire him within two seconds.
	And so then CNN says, what can Trump fire Jack Smith if elected?
	Because more than a half dozen people who are close to the special counsel's office or other top Justice Department officials previously told CNN they believe Smith doesn't want to close up shop before being ordered to do so or before being pushed out by Trump.
	Under federal law, he must provide a confidential report on his office's work to the Attorney General before he leaves the post.
	Did you get that TPS report, Ed?
	Yeah.
	Could you do that by this afternoon, please?
	Georgia's RICO case.
	This is the one that is really scraping the bottom of the barrel.
	This is where Fannie is.
	Fannie, be tender with my love.
	Hinges on whether Fulton County District Attorney Fannie Willis, a Democrat, disqualified from prosecuting the matter after her prior romantic relationship with her fellow prosecutor.
	She's comically corrupt.
	You know, Letitia James is obviously corrupt.
	She is comically corrupt.
	This case is effectively on hold while the appeal court decides whether or not to disqualify her.
	That's how bad it is.
	If she is removed, sources told CNN they think it's unlikely that another prosecutor would want to take up the case and effectively go away.
	It was all just politics.
	And again...
	You have to look at this stuff.
	Were there motivations to, you know, career and attention and fame?
	Or was this part of the selection?
	And then there are civil suits facing Trump.
	A civil fraud case in New York brought by, again, Letitia James.
	$454 million in damages.
	And I think the clock is ticking on it with interest as well.
	Trump lost two defamation cases to E. Jean Carroll.
	In 2023 and 2024, a federal jury found him liable for sexually abusing her, subsequently defaming her.
	Two juries awarded her $5 million and then $83 million.
	A federal appeals court heard Trump's appeal to dismiss the first Carroll verdict in September.
	They have yet to issue a decision.
	A state appeals court heard arguments in Trump's efforts to dismiss the Letitia James $454 million civil fraud judgment against him.
	In which a judge found that he, his adult sons, and his company fraudulently inflated the value of Trump's assets to obtain better loan and insurance rates.
	This is also nonsense.
	Absolute nonsense.
	I'm not so sure about the E.G. and Carroll thing.
	I mean, based on this, that is a bit credible.
	But this other stuff, certainly there was no fraud.
	Right?
	The banks didn't complain about any fraud.
	Nobody lost any money either.
	You know, you can lose money and there not be fraud.
	They didn't lose money.
	Trump is also still facing civil lawsuits brought by Democratic lawyers and others over his role in January the 6th.
	Well, Politico kind of sums it up this way.
	Trump is due to be sentenced in three weeks.
	It probably won't happen.
	Probably won't.
	Reason says Trump has many grudges.
	And look at that long list there.
	And those are big grudges.
	No president has ever come into office carrying as many grudges on his shoulders.
	And Reason says now he's got a chance to act on them.
	In his second term, the former and future president will have more freedom to follow his worst instincts.
	This is from Jacob Sollum.
	And he said back in 2016, after Trump was elected and then...
	He said, if there is an advantage to electing a preening, petty, thin-skinned, whiny, vindictive, vacuous, mendacious, boorish bully to the White House, it may be that he prompts a reconsideration of the absurd hopes and the cultish veneration that surrounds the presidency.
	And I a thousand percent agree with this.
	I read the op-ed piece from Lou Rockwell that was spot on last week.
	And he said, you know, the biggest problem is the presidency and this cultish veneration.
	That's the phrase that Jacob Sollum used.
	You know, the idea that all of our problems must be solved by government and that the president can solve all of our problems.
	And that is the biggest problem that America faces, is that ridiculous belief, that servile belief, that socialist, collectivist, passive, vicarious belief.
	So, he said, at that time, he said, I suggested a ridiculous president would encourage Americans to take the presidency less serious.
	Did Biden encourage us to take it less seriously?
	These people are saying, who's running the country?
	Then he's out there saying, I'm not only running the country, I'm running my campaign.
	See how mentally competent I am?
	Well, whether or not you're mentally competent, you're constitutionally incompetent if you think that you're running the world and the campaign and the country and all the rest of which is what he said.
	We don't elect presidents to run the world.
	We don't elect presidents even to run the country.
	Was Trump any better?
	No.
	Can we finally learn that lesson and move on to pay attention to our lives and our community and our family and our state and the things that really matter instead of being so obsessed with Washington and especially with the presidency?
	Jacob Selim said, well, that didn't quite work out as I'd hoped.
	It didn't discourage people from venerating the presidency.
	Trump was predictably ridiculous as president.
	The comedy turned into a tragedy by the end of the term.
	By the end of the term?
	No.
	Because he starts talking about January the 6th.
	It turned into a tragedy when Trump locked us down.
	What is it?
	Nobody left or right, or even libertarian, wants to remember what happened in the spring.
	We've never had anything like that.
	And you might want to pay attention to the fact that everybody was doing the same thing globally.
	Does that look like a conspiracy to you?
	It looks like a conspiracy to me.
	And I'm not going to support somebody that's part of a globalist conspiracy.
	And Trump was.
	He did exactly the same thing that everybody else did.
	And so did Biden.
	Both of them are part of the globalist new world order.
	Every bit as much as any Bush or Clinton or Obama.
	Perhaps even more so.
	They did it right in our face.
	And all these people who write, whether they are conservative, liberal, libertarian, they want you to forget about all this stuff.
	I'm not forgetting about it.
	But, you know, just move on.
	Just move on.
	It never happened.
	And we can now flush it down the memory hole.
	You know, there's a lot of stuff that's happening in terms of the Internet Archive.
	Boy, it's been under attack for many, many months, and it's still not working now.
	And then you've got Google flushing stuff, as they always do, and you've got Alexa flushing stuff.
	There's about five or six different places where the Internet has been archived.
	All those...
	Are being shut down.
	No longer operating.
	But who needs the internet when you've got all of the political media telling you that nothing happened until January the 6th in Trump's term.
	Nothing really unusual, right?
	Well, Jacob Sullivan says Trump is still angry.
	He said if we win and when we win, we're going to prosecute people that cheat on this election.
	Well, good.
	I think that is a crime.
	It should be prosecuted.
	Now, you know, we were told by Steve Pachenik that they'd already sent out 20,000 National Guard two days after the election.
	They were already arresting people.
	Is this another one of those fictional pieces?
	I will appoint a real special prosecutor to go after the most corrupt president in the history of the United States of America, Joe Biden, and the entire Biden crime family, he said, in a June 2023 rally.
	I will appoint a real special prosecutor to investigate the Biden bribery and crime ring.
	This is why he said, a Biden pardon of Trump may be necessary for Biden to save himself.
	I mean, he's a real criminal with this stuff.
	Trump is angry also at Mark Zuckerberg.
	I know we should not have any schadenfreude here, but in his 2024 book, Save America, Trump complained that Zuckerberg steered Facebook against me during the 2020 election.
	He said we're watching him closely, and if he does anything illegal this time, he's going to spend the rest of his life in prison.
	You see how much Trump is like Lala?
	You know, we need to take away Twitter and we need to put Elon Musk in jail.
	Trump wants to do the same thing to his perceived enemies.
	They want to talk about how free speech has been saved?
	And I see this all over the place.
	No.
	Trump is angry at everyone who supported his second impeachment in March of 2023.
	He said the committee's members should be prosecuted for their lies and, quite frankly, all uppercase treason.
	Uppercase treason.
	Yeah, that's the worst kind of treason, you know.
	Trump declared Liz Cheney should go to jail along with the rest of the unselect committee.
	Trump has said that Smith, whom he accuses of illegally leaking to the press, should be prosecuted for all uppercase misconduct.
	Trump is more justifiably angry about his 34 felony convictions in New York, says Reason, Jacob Selim.
	He thinks Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg, like Smith, should be prosecuted for leaks.
	Trump is angry about New York Attorney General Letitia James' civil fraud case against him, which resulted in a staggering and puzzling, says Jacob Selim.
	$364 million disgorgement order, but now, you know, I think even the 454 is a low figure because they keep adding interest to it.
	Trump said that both James and the judge, Arthur Ingeron, quote, should be arrested and punished accordingly.
	Trump is angry at news organizations for covering these and other controversies in ways that made him look bad.
	He said they're, quote, enemies of the people.
	Is Trump serious about any of this, he says?
	Glenn Beck said, well, if you're president again, he said in August of 2023, will you lock people up?
	His response was, the answer is you have no choice because they're doing it to us.
	Now, I would agree with that if he says you would have no choice because we have to have an honest government.
	But you notice what he's focused on.
	You have no choice because you're doing it to us.
	This is nothing more than tribal warfare.
	This is not about having a justice system.
	That it's fair and equal.
	This is not about punishing people who have weaponized the Justice Department.
	This is about weaponizing the Justice Department against your enemies.
	That's the problem.
	That's the big problem.
	And so, you know, Trump is out there in his acceptance speech.
	They say, I want to start a war.
	I want to end the wars, you know.
	Well, I don't know.
	I think he was talking in the context.
	I don't know if he was talking about, they say, I want to start a war.
	I don't know if he was talking about domestically.
	But it certainly sounds like he wants to start one domestically.
	And so even though we don't have this fight over when the election is going to be decided, it's interesting to me.
	That they're able to figure out the votes for president and for senate and for governor, state legislatures for the most part.
	I mean, Arizona's a mess.
	They don't know what's going on with any of the races.
	Here we are, you know, two days after the election, they still don't have any answers.
	But it's hard for me to believe that there's that many close congressional races in the House.
	They can't decide.
	I think there's a rigging process that they're trying to pull off there.
	Already, the Republicans have flipped six seats, and the Democrats have flipped two seats.
	So it's a net of four so far for the Republicans.
	They're a lot closer, but they're not there yet.
	As I said yesterday, nobody had called it, but as of even Tuesday evening, they were still saying, same people have said that there was a We're also saying that the Senate would be won by the Republicans.
	We're also saying that the House would be won by the Democrats.
	Same margin, 66% to 70% chance that that would happen.
	I haven't seen them update those odds.
	I said when I looked at it, I could see why they were saying that, because most of the places that had not put the results in were mostly Democrat areas.
	But it's amazing to me to see how many jurisdictions have only counted 50% of the votes, 60% of the votes.
	And yeah, if you've got a close election, you still can't call it at that point.
	But how in the world can they not count?
	How does it take them two days to only count half of the ballots?
	When I was a kid, they had the results right away.
	We didn't wait days, weeks for this kind of stuff.
	Did they not see this coming?
	No.
	We're going to have to count.
	What?
	We've got to count the ballots?
	Oh, we better get started right now.
	It ended yesterday.
	Anyway, getting back to the warfare here.
	Sean Hannity said, people are claiming you want retribution.
	People are claiming you want what has happened to you done to Democrats.
	Would you do that ever?
	Trump said, well, what's happened to me has never happened in this country before.
	You will use a system of justice to go after your political enemies.
	That's what he said.
	I would have every right to go after them, he said, although I know that you want me to say something so nice, but I don't want to look naive.
	And again, it's important to hold these people up to the standard.
	It's important to at least have the decency to pretend that you're doing this to support the rule of law, not for a personal vendetta.
	But he won't do that.
	I mean, he doesn't have any problem.
	As a matter of fact, he probably would prefer this to be seen as pursuing a personal vendetta because that empowers him.
	He would probably rather not have it be seen.
	As a rule of law.
	Because it makes him look like a tough guy.
	Mafia figure.
	Will Trump's angry, vengeful rhetoric amount to anything?
	There are several reasons to think that it might, says Jacob Sullivan.
	During his first term, Trump was restrained by calmer, more experienced officials who pushed back against hot-headed proposals, such as yanking broadcast licenses from news outlets that offended him.
	He's still talking about that, but he was talking about it back then as well.
	And shooting protesters or migrants in the legs, according to John Kelly, Trump's second chief of staff, his former boss did not even comprehend the idea that his subordinates had a higher duty than obedience to his will.
	Now, John Kelly certainly hates Trump.
	And so a lot of people are going to discount a lot of the stuff that he has to say about it.
	And I don't know if it's true or not.
	The question is, why do so many people who work closely with him hate him so much?
	But isn't this clearly what we see in the fact that he is, as Ty Cobb, his former lawyer, said, a deeply wounded narcissist who is incapable of acting except in his own perceived self-interest or out of revenge?
	And the idea that he doesn't even have an idea that his subordinates have a higher duty than obedience to him personally, that is out there for everybody to see about Trump.
	That pretty much characterizes his personality.
	This time around, Trump is apt to rely on advisors who are less inclined to question his instincts, says Jacob Sollum.
	Maybe Trump will give up his grudges and let bygones be bygones in the interest of bipartisan comedy.
	Not C-O-M-E-D-Y, but C-O-M-I-T-Y, getting along.
	And it might be professional wrestling comedy.
	But that would require self-restraint, charity, and considered judgment qualities that he has rarely demonstrated.
	Except with Hillary Clinton.
	Although I'm not sure that that was done because he rose above the occasion, but perhaps because they knew a great deal about him and Jeffrey Epstein.
	That might be the only thing that will restrain him, is his connections to Jeffrey Epstein and the people who know him well.
	I'm going to take a quick break because I've been going for about 43 minutes.
	And when we come back, I want to talk about what's going on with the January 6th people still being arrested.
	Some of the people who were set free by the Supreme Court, re-arrested by the Department of Justice.
	Yeah, there needs to be some prosecutions for this stuff.
	These people don't need to just lose their jobs.
	They need to be prosecuted.
	They should not have.
	Prosecutorial immunity when they weaponize their office like that.
	To me, what the Department of Justice is doing is absolutely no different than a cop who, you know, use excessive force, kills somebody in an unjustified manner for an unjustified reason.
	They need to be held responsible for that.
	But we are not doing that.
	We're not doing that to the police.
	There's not even any calls for him to do that to the Department of Justice.
	So, you're going to allow this to happen and you're going to get the same thing that we got in California.
	People can just come in and steal stuff and we'll never do anything about it.
	If there is no punishment, if there is no deterrence, they'll just keep doing it over and over again.
	And the same people will keep doing it over and over again if you don't lock them up.
	We're going to take a quick break and we're going to be right back.
	The common man. .
	They created common core to dumb down our children.
	They created common past to track and control us.
	Their commons project to make sure the commoners own nothing.
	And the communist future.
	They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary.
	But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God.
	That is what we have in common.
	That is what they want to take away.
	Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation.
	They desire to know everything about us while they hide everything from us.
	It's time to turn that around and expose what they want to hide.

	Thank you.
	North American House Hippo, thank you very much for the tip.
	Says, I've decided to move to the Twilight Zone, David.
	It's something I would never have considered, but actually it makes sense.
	I found a nice little cottage in Willoughby.
	Remember that one?
	That was actually one of my favorite episodes.
	I felt like I moved to Willoughby when we moved here to Tennessee, quite frankly.
	Carlos Rex, thank you very much for the tip.
	Yona Anawodi says, if you can't stop breaking the law, just get elected.
	Ha!
	That's right.
	Why didn't Al Capone think of that?
	He'd make all these crimes go away.
	I'm running for office.
	And all your crimes become classified and no one else ever has a need to know or a way to know.
	That's right.
	Yeah, it's kind of hard.
	Just like we've got this revolving door.
	Between big pharma executives and their positions at HHS and FDA and CDC and things like that.
	We have this revolving door between criminals and politicians.
	It's really hard to tell where one ends and the other one ends.
	But Handy says, if I wanted to just make it personal, Trump made me a felon overnight with a bump stock ban.
	Yeah.
	Sure, it's stupid, and it's an expensive novelty, but it's just a gun stuck.
	That's right.
	And you can, as people point out, you can achieve the same type of thing, connecting it to your belt and just having something that makes it bounce back and forth.
	Yeah, it was a stupid idea, and what's really bad was the fact that the NRA really didn't care.
	And so then Trump did it again.
	Trump also put in the pistol brace ban that conservatives conveniently forget about.
	He also did that by executive order.
	The difference was that the NRA opposed him when he did the pistol brace ban.
	And so when he was fighting over whether he should stay and trying to decide whether he should stay in the White House, he removed that in December of 2020.
	He put it in in 2019.
	He removed it in 2020.
	And then Biden put it right back in.
	The Gun Owners of America, though, opposed the bump stock, opposed the pistol brace.
	They were consistent on principle.
	Just remember that.
	Not the NRA, but Gun Owners of America.
	And it's important to understand, you know, we've got several different gun rights groups, and they're good or bad in different ways, just like we've got a lot of different pro-life groups.
	That's how you get things done.
	You have people who form around an issue.
	And that is far, far more important to get people, even if, you know, I understand that, you know, there's a lot of grifting and stuff like that that goes on in these things.
	But only when you organize around a central issue are you going to get really something done, I think.
	Not so much around the politicians.
	They can put pressure on the politicians.
	And if you've got enough pressure on the politicians, even the ones that are not with you will move.
	But if you're only focused on the political party, And if you're going to become a cheerleader for the politician, you'll never get anything that you want.
	It's going to require special interest organizations there.
	All right, let's talk about the January 6th protesters and prisoners, because we all hope to see them pardoned as soon as possible.
	And to just show how the Biden so-called Justice Department never gives up, they're still arresting people.
	The weekend before the election, they were out there arresting more people, charging them with January 6th.
	And here's somebody who went to jail and was freed because of a Supreme Court decision, rightfully set free.
	And now the Department of Justice is trying to put him back in jail.
	Freed January 6th, protester says that the Department of Justice is trying to put him behind bars again.
	This is coming from LifeSite News.
	His name is Leo Kelly.
	I don't see anyone at the DOJ upholding justice these days.
	Do they even have a loyalty to what that agency's purpose is for, he said in a phone call this week.
	By the way, so many of these charges are conspiracy.
	Shouldn't the people in the Department of Justice be charged with a conspiracy?
	Because that's exactly what this is.
	This is a conspiracy to use their office to To punish political dissidents and people that they don't agree with.
	It is a conspiracy.
	Send them to jail for conspiracy.
	Americans are betrayed by Congress, betrayed by the judicial branch, betrayed by our local governments, our mayors, and everything.
	What are we supposed to do, he said.
	Well, what he doesn't mention is that they were also betrayed by Trump.
	They were betrayed by Trump, by Alex, the Stop the Steal thing where they grifted them, sent them off on a fool's errand.
	There was nothing to be accomplished on January 6th.
	So I told everybody, it's going to be loaded with agent provocateurs who will do things and blame you, right?
	What a surprise.
	Kelly was sentenced to 30 months for what was deemed to be a felony for obstructing a governmental proceeding along with six misdemeanors.
	He was not charged with any violence here, by the way.
	You know, we're talking about things like, well, you were trespassing, you obstructed a governmental proceeding.
	Well, guess what?
	We've got a First Amendment that says that you have a right to redress your grievances.
	And if he wasn't breaking stuff or beating people, they don't have a leg to stand on.
	This past June, the U.S. Supreme Court even ruled that the felony charge for many January the 6th prisoners was to be dismissed.
	The felony that was based on obstructing a governmental proceeding.
	The Supreme Court ruled that that's nonsense.
	We always knew that was nonsense, right?
	And even the Supreme Court has sided with that.
	So in September, his dad, Chris, and several other family members called the Minnesota-based prison where he was being detained.
	Shockingly, they learned that he was being released in three hours.
	Yeah, don't bother to let you know, but it was good news for them.
	He told LifeSite on Tuesday during a phone call that his son should have been freed in June as he had acquired credits toward an early release thanks to Trump's First Step Act, the bill that was signed during the first Trump administration.
	He should have been released as soon as the Department of Justice threw out the felony also.
	The Bureau of Prisons was probably in a panic to get rid of him because it is false imprisonment.
	He was sent to jail for a made-up felony that has been thrown out by the Supreme Court.
	And he was still there.
	So when they saw the court decision, they said, let's get him out of here.
	The AP, however, Associated Press, Associated Propaganda, propaganda associated with the Democrats and the global governance, the AP picked up his story.
	They said the Federal Bureau of Prisons mistakenly released an Iowa man from custody, and they cited a Justice Department court filing that said that he was free due to a, quote, misinterpretation of a court order, unquote.
	But Kelly's father said there was nothing mistaken about his son's release.
	He said after the Supreme Court's decision, the appeals court told the Department of Justice to, quote, not burden us with these cases to review.
	Just tell us which ones you're going to drop the felony charges on.
	So they gave the list to the appeals court and Leo's name was on it.
	They now want a re-sentencing.
	But he doesn't have a felony, only misdemeanors.
	And he's already served a year.
	And so the maximum that he could have served in prison for all of these misdemeanors was a year.
	And he's already served it.
	They made up felony charge.
	Those weaponized prosecution, political persecution by the Biden Department of so-called justice has been thrown out by the Supreme Court.
	But they're still trying to put him back in jail.
	Isn't that amazing?
	That's why it's not enough to just fire these people.
	They'll come back in another future Democrat administration.
	You've got to punish them and make an example out of them.
	It appears that the local officials understood the implications of the lack of a felony, so they let him out, he said.
	The D.C. prosecutors seem to be blaming the local authorities for releasing him, so they want a resentencing hearing.
	But again, the felony is gone, and there's no point in resentencing because the maximum he could have served for the misdemeanors was a year, and he's already done that.
	What the government is trying to do to me pales in comparison to the injustice that was done to our Lord on the cross 2,000 years ago, said Leo.
	God is my defender, and my quote-unquote mistaken release was not a mistake.
	Liars will always lie.
	He said the law was used as a weapon against us.
	Our government is corrupt and lawless right now.
	America needs to repent, to humble itself, and to turn from our wicked ways so God will heal our land, he said.
	Trump's victory is a step in that direction, but there's more to be done now.
	Well, We look to God for forgiveness, but we look to government for justice.
	They should not be bearing the sword in vain.
	Their job is to make sure that we have a justice system, not political vendettas.
	And as I said before, my concern is that Trump is not going to be, you know, even if his motive is a political vendetta, he ought to have the decency to, and as a leader, He ought to try to at least pretend that what he is doing is to restore the rule of law.
	But I think he'll go the opposite direction.
	Because I think he'll want to be seen as somebody to be feared.
	I'm a big man.
	I'm a tough guy.
	I'm the biggest mobster on the block.
	More than 1,200 Americans have been charged with breaking the law in Washington, D.C. on January the 6th.
	Trump may issue pardons.
	Well, I hope he does.
	And, of course, LifeSite News also talks about, what about these other political prisoners?
	You know, the ones that are pro-life?
	There's a lot of them as well.
	Not 1,200, but they've gotten very severe sentences for violating this FACE Act.
	And the FACE Act stands in violation of our free speech as well as our free exercise of religion and conscience.
	That must be stopped.
	And yet, do you see that as a priority for Mike Johnson and the GOP when he was there?
	I tell you, I look at this, I want the Republicans to win the House because I want them to be held responsible.
	If they've got all three branches of government, they don't have an excuse.
	And so it's either put up or shut up at that point, right?
	But if they lose the house, it's going, oh, we can't do anything because Hakeem Jeffries won't let us or Nancy Pelosi won't let us and all the rest of this stuff.
	There'll be a little bit of truth to that, but for the most part, they're going to use that as an excuse.
	So I hope they get all three.
	But we've got to stop this kind of persecution against free speech.
	As Barney would say, we've got to nip it, nip it in the bud.
	Except it's not in the bud, it's taken root.
	And so, in September 2023, the president-elect, that's referring to Trump, promised to review the case of every political prisoner unjustly persecuted by the Biden administration and to sign their pardons or commutation on day one.
	And that doesn't just apply to J6ers either.
	So they said, today LifeSite News is calling on President Trump to remember his promise and to set the captives free.
	Marxists and Stalinists and the administration got a Washington, D.C. jury to convict five pro-life activists who are now facing up to 11 years in prison for a simple act of protest.
	And Trump said that.
	During a speech in 2023, he was referring to pro-life activists.
	I'm going to read off all their names, quite a few of them, under the FACE Act.
	On the day of Trump's speech, pro-life rescuers Joan Andrews, Bell, who is 74, Jonathan Darnell, 40, Gene Marshall, 72, were all found guilty of the same charges in connection to their involvement in the same rescue.
	On the day that he made that speech, they were found guilty, sent to jail.
	One of the convicted pro-lifers, Lauren Handy, has discovered the remains of roughly 100 aborted children, including five extremely late-term babies from a discarded box in Cesar Santangelo's facility, and reported to the Washington, D.C. Police Homicide Unit only days before she and her fellow pro-life defendants were arrested.
	You see?
	The GOP never talked about that either.
	They allowed the Democrats to portray themselves, oh, we got all these women who are going to be victims of these abortion laws or anything.
	They don't have any victims.
	They're imaginary victims.
	We got real victims of homicide.
	And when you report the homicide, what do they do?
	Well, they arrest the whistleblower.
	They arrest the person who reported it.
	Just like Lala Harris came after David Daleiden of the Center for Medical Progress when he exposed the trafficking in body parts.
	And then, as part of this ordeal that he's been going through for 10 years, practically.
	I think it started in 2015.
	As part of this ordeal that he's been going through, in discovery, they found out that the U.S. government was one of the big customers of Planned Parenthood, Fauci in particular.
	Telling them to murder for hire babies.
	Give them, you know, take the baby out.
	It's got to be alive so the organ's not damaged.
	We schedule this so we can cut the baby into pieces, take the parts, put them on ice, ship them out to Fauci so he can create humanized mice.
	That's the level of our government.
	I don't ever talk about Nazis.
	They're nothing compared to our government.
	And, of course, the GOP doesn't want to talk about that.
	They don't want to talk about Lauren Handy finding all of these late-term babies.
	We've seen the pictures.
	They've put them out.
	But the Republicans won't talk about it.
	Trump won't talk about it.
	They pretend that never happened.
	And so, as a result, you know, it keeps going on.
	Oh, yeah, we've got this albatross of abortion around our neck.
	Well, you know what?
	Why don't you hang some of the dead babies around the necks of these Democrats, right?
	LifeSite News published a petition in March 2024 asking then-candidate Trump to do the following.
	Four things.
	One, grant a full pardon of all charges and convictions of the arrested pro-lifers.
	Immediately release them, protect them from any attached penalties.
	Number two, pledge to defederalize prosecution of pro-life rescuers.
	And by the way, let me just insert here, nobody was harmed with any of this stuff.
	It's just like these protesters on January the 6th.
	That's a common thing, right?
	Don't you dare...
	Talk about me or to me or what I'm doing or I'll put you in jail.
	That's the Biden administration's response to this stuff.
	Number three, never allow any Department of Justice or FBI employee who had anything to do with pro-life persecutions to ever hold a job in federal law enforcement again, including agents who conducted raids by obeying orders, quote-unquote, and showing themselves unfit to wield such power.
	Well, I think you need to add another thing.
	I think you need to say, prosecute them for their abuse of power.
	I don't think they deserve immunity.
	I really don't.
	12 June 1776, thank you very much for the tip.
	Glad to hear things are turning for the family.
	Thank you very much.
	Yes, me too.
	The way to right the wrongs is to turn the light of truth upon them.
	I agree.
	North American House Hippo, the J6ers, at least some of them, may be pardoned, but the government employees who tortured them must be brought to justice.
	Yeah, let's not forget about that.
	There's a lot of torture that was going on.
	Medical treatment denied to people.
	Very vicious, sadistic torture is being done there.
	It's like the Stanford experiment where they made two different groups of people, prisoners and everything, and it just does that to people.
	It's amazing.
	And as he said, and there's no hope in hell that that will happen, that they will be brought to justice.
	That's right.
	Andromeda One, thank you very much for the tip.
	Congratulations for your new grandson.
	God bless him and all your family.
	Thank you.
	And God has blessed us tremendously.
	We're going to take a quick break and we will be right back.
	We're going to take a quick break.
	We're going to take a quick break.
	We're going to take a quick break.
	We're going to take a quick break.
	We're going to take a quick break.
	You're listening to The David Knight Show.
	you And he says, you know, maybe your baby was born on 11-7 if you claim your time zone.
	They're in a central time zone.
	Maybe we should do that.
	Make his birthday easier to remember.
	Like 7-11.
	Of course, that's not going to mean anything to him.
	I imagine all 7-11 stores will be gone by the time he's old enough to pay attention.
	Yeah, there we go.
	Two birthdays.
	Let's talk a little bit about what happened in California.
	Californians vote to make crime illegal again.
	MCIA make crime illegal again.
	And this is a big turnaround and long overdue.
	For a decade, California has been suffering from these Soros district attorneys and from a law that was put in and supported by Lala Harris to not lock up people.
	Who have committed less than $1,000 in terms of shoplifting and things like that.
	Not even the Wall Street big box retailers who essentially have access to unlimited funds as long as they can keep the happy stories coming.
	Not even they can withstand this.
	Crime has been bad in California.
	Since Proposition 47 was passed in 2014, voters took the word of then-San Francisco DA George Gascon and California Attorney General Lala Harris and passed Prop 47.
	And these, as this person calls it, BJ Media, Victoria Taft, calls them Soros-inspired chaos agents, and they absolutely are.
	That was the purpose of all this stuff.
	But isn't it interesting to contrast Lala Harris, who decides that she's not going to lock people up for crime, But she will, and of course, consistent in that, she's not going to lock up anybody at Planned Parenthood for doing murder for hire.
	But she'll lock up the whistleblower who exposes it, right?
	George Soros' Open Society and the Ford Foundation were the ones who were behind this Prop 47.
	It magically redefined felonies, making them misdemeanors.
	In the same way that, you know, they invent felonies to lock, you know, obstructing an official proceeding.
	Oh, we're going to make that a felony, and we're going to lock people up for years with that.
	But anyway, for real felonies, they made them misdemeanors.
	And instead of spending money on prisons for the state's ever-increasing number of criminals, the state reckoned that it would save money by not building prisons and by fast-tracking criminals back into society.
	Crime spiked, but the researchers told the increasing number of crime victims to settle down.
	The crime weight was actually going down, but everybody saw the opposite.
	Even the Wall Street chains had to leave San Francisco.
	You can walk into a store, you can steal $950 worth of goods, and you cannot be punished.
	And if anybody tries to stop you, they get punished.
	Organize gangs of thieves walk into stores and steal thousands of dollars worth of goods because they know that no one will stop.
	This is an old story because this has been on now for nine years.
	It took people in California nine years to stop this.
	And they've had multiple efforts to try to recall Gascon and the...
	Chaz Boudin or something, who was raised by Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dorn at the Weather Underground while his parents were serving time in jail.
	Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dorn raised this radical.
	He was one of these Soros district attorneys.
	He was in San Francisco.
	They were able to recall him the last election, but George Gascon was able to finesse out this recall thing in L.A. last time.
	Not this time.
	This time he got recalled.
	He only got about a third of the votes.
	Two-thirds of the people wanted him out in L.A. And the local district attorney in Oakland, same thing.
	She only got about a third of the votes.
	Two-thirds of the people want her out in Oakland as well.
	And then they had a proposition to amend or to replace Proposition 47 to make shoplifting and things like this a crime again.
	And to make real crimes real crimes again.
	So we've seen the retail theft gangs.
	We've seen knockouts on the streets of Chinatown, says this PJ Media article in San Francisco.
	Luxury store lootings.
	And laws transformed stores into museums of food.
	Don't smudge the glass.
	Just look at the food behind the glass and you have to call somebody to unlock it.
	Walgreens has chained up the freezer section, tweeted one person.
	Workers said that normally shoplifters clean out all the pizza and ice cream every night.
	And they usually hit 20 times a day.
	20 times a day.
	As long as you don't take more than $1,000 per visit, you can just keep coming back.
	So they put chains on the freezer.
	And you've got to call an employee to undo it.
	And this was July of last year, 2023.
	Now it's ten years later, and it's taken millions of dollars, thousands of man-hours, and multiple attempts to exterminate this ridiculous set of laws.
	The place has become a ghost town in many areas because of this.
	Will these businesses come back?
	On Tuesday, voters took a decisive step toward sanity by passing Proposition 36.
	Under this change, crime will be illegal again.
	MCIA. Make crime illegal again.
	Oh, we should make the CIA illegal, too.
	Let's do that.
	Acts of theft will be combined to reach the threshold requiring punishment.
	And addicts will be incentivized at drug court to go into treatment.
	But it's a start.
	LA voters also made a big move getting rid of George Gascon and again the other person.
	By the way, they tried to get Lala to back Proposition 36 and she refused to do it.
	She still, after 10 years of this, she still supported it.
	And again, we can see what she does in terms of coming after whistleblowers and innocent people.
	So that modification to make shoplifting a crime again was approved by 71% of voters.
	You still had a third of voters in California who don't want to prosecute crime.
	Isn't that amazing?
	New York Times called the race soon after the polls closed, despite California's notoriously slow vote counting.
	Yeah, they still haven't figured out who they're going to send to Congress for the most part.
	It was vigorously opposed by Democrats like Gavin Newsom, and when he realized that he was on the losing side, that three out of four people were against him, he shut up.
	Lala Harris refused to endorse it.
	And, you know, Gavin Newsom is also coming out.
	I just saw that he's out there now trying to get attention again.
	Now that the presidency in four years is kind of open.
	He wants to run again, so he immediately comes out and he goes, federalism is the most important principle of our government, and we are the United States of America, and we're going to stand on our state sovereignty and all the rest of this stuff, right?
	It's so funny to see them do that kind of stuff.
	Anybody who's a conservative says that, oh, you're some kind of a neo-confederate.
	You want to push us into a civil war.
	Well, when Trump got elected, my program started in July of 2017, and already, for the first six months, the liberals in California were going nuts.
	We've got to get out of the United States.
	And so they'd already created several organizations to try to secede from the United States, not just to nullify.
	But to go to secession.
	And so that was my first guest on my program was somebody from California as part of a secession movement.
	And I said, how can I help you?
	Like for you to go, if you can't, and I had a lot of conservatives in Orange County and other places, don't do that.
	I said, well, if you can't control these people, you're all going to have to leave.
	You either leave California if you can't control it, or we need to get California to leave us.
	But he's now trying to put himself back and get some attention about this.
	And we talk about this.
	It's not about states' rights.
	States don't have rights.
	Corporations don't have rights.
	People have rights because we're created in the image of God.
	And people create governments to protect those God-given rights.
	And then you have institutions that are created by government.
	The federal government, unfortunately, was one institution that was created by the states.
	It's been cursed ever since.
	But corporations are created by the state.
	Corporations don't have rights.
	They have privileges.
	Governments that are created by people made in the image of God have powers.
	They don't have rights.
	And, of course, they were careful to specify that in the Tenth Amendment.
	They said powers not delegated to the central government are retained by the states and by the people.
	So people have powers.
	They have rights.
	States only have powers.
	So she refused to endorse it.
	But again, Oakland, LA, they kicked them out.
	They had kicked out this guy.
	And her name was Pamela Price, the one that was in Oakland.
	They kicked them out before.
	Let's talk a little bit about smart cities.
	China hopes to roll out its smart city model along as a model to BRICS nations.
	And this is from Exposenews.com in the UK. And they said, if you think that BRICS is some kind of a counter-opposition to the New World Order, to the UN's plan for global governance and all the rest of this stuff, you're sadly mistaken.
	Because the BRICS countries, Russia, China, fully on board with CBDC. Fully on board with social credits.
	Fully on board with censorship.
	Fully on board with smart cities.
	They embrace all of this stuff.
	Just as they embrace the pandemic.
	BRICS is not there as some system to be embraced as an alternative.
	They're as bad as Western countries and in many ways worse.
	China's approach is a little bit different from the Western models.
	Unlike Western models that emphasize data privacy and public participation, China focuses on rapid, large-scale implementation.
	That's not expose news.
	They're quoting the BRICS Info publication.
	Well, that is...
	Unlike Western models that falsely promise data privacy, the people who are putting out these smart cities or the so-called freedom city that Trump was talking about, they're not about data privacy.
	They're not about getting your feedback and public participation.
	But the interesting thing about it is that China and Russia don't even pretend.
	See, that's the difference.
	You know, the Western countries, they don't want to get the pushback.
	So they pretend that they're doing these things, when in reality they're acting exactly like the Russians and the Chinese, but the Russian and Chinese are shameless about it.
	Where did this all begin?
	Well, it began in 2010.
	They started talking about all this stuff, the UN 2030 Agenda, smart cities, and all the rest of this stuff.
	It went public in 2015, but it had its origin back in 2010.
	This is a UK publication.
	They're talking about it from the UK standpoint.
	It was also pushed very heavily by the Marxist mayor of Paris.
	And so, both in Paris and in the UK, they were pushing this.
	It was a think tank in the UK, Forum for the Future, proposed the concept of a planned-opolis, one of four scenarios of megacities on the move.
	The report was a collaboration between Vodafone, FIA Foundation for the Automobile and Society.
	Isn't that interesting?
	How dishonest of them.
	They don't want an automobile.
	These urban planners have said over and over again, the guy who was the CEO for Lyft was, you know, propagandized, indoctrinated as an urban planner in college, and he said, cities are the best invention that man has ever had, and cars are the worst invention, and we've got to get rid of them.
	We don't want to have any urban sprawl.
	We don't have any suburbs.
	We've got to concentrate everybody so we can control everything efficiently, right?
	So, They call for a highly controlled, regulated environment where the government has planned citizens' lives to ensure efficient use of resources and activities.
	Isn't that what you want, right?
	Now, of course, that didn't begin in 2010.
	Actually, Patrick McGowan came up with that idea, I guess, in 1967 with a prisoner's village 57 years ago.
	But it was predictable.
	We could see the impulses.
	We know what humans are like, right?
	This is all coming from the heart.
	And so we know what people who want power, we know what they crave.
	And so all you have to do is just say, well, okay, when they get better tools, how are they going to try to use those tools against us for wish fulfillment of ruling over us and tyrannizing us?
	And just remember, as we're thinking about the next Trump administration, just remember how fanatically he pushed 5G. And remember how he was so concerned that Huawei, the Chinese company, not be involved in that.
	Why is that?
	Because it's about surveillance.
	And as soon as you say, well, 5G is about total surveillance, you're a conspiracy theorist.
	Well, they know that it's all about surveillance.
	That's why they didn't want the Chinese as part of it.
	It's all about surveillance.
	So, Hangzhou's city brain system is what they call it.
	The city brain system.
	It has reduced traffic congestion by 15%.
	In Shanghai, smart grid technology has boosted energy efficiency by 10% and cut carbon emissions by 15%.
	See, it's just like Hitler.
	They make the trains run on time, right?
	And the trains are nice and clean.
	Clean trains running on time.
	Isn't that worth everything?
	All of your freedom and dignity?
	Yeah, just put everybody in chains and starve them.
	It'll be great for the metrics that we've got here.
	Think about how everything will be on time then, when you don't have all these messy people trying to get on a train.
	Exposé News comments and says, you know, the effectiveness of public services seems to relate in their writings.
	They call this responsive and coordinated governance.
	A euphemism for centralized control and tyranny.
	A survey by McKinsey, going back to the BRICS publication, a survey by McKinsey found that 80% of residents in Chinese smart cities are satisfied with their quality of life.
	Exposé News says, do you expect them to say anything other than that?
	The place where they're ruling and lording over them with the social credit scores?
	I'd like to have your opinion on something.
	It's like, oh, please don't ask.
	I mean, it's compared to you talk about people being shy.
	You know, we got shy Trump voters out here.
	They want to vote for Trump, but they don't want to tell anybody they're going to vote for Trump because they'll get hated on.
	Well, imagine you're living in Shanghai.
	You're likely to get Shanghai'd right out of there.
	Compared to other BRICS countries, China's proactive engagement in foreign partnerships has allowed for rapid growth, making it a model for nations seeking to expedite smart city development.
	The question is, to what purpose, right?
	Is production and growth, is that what fulfills us in our life?
	Is that the meaning of life?
	No.
	I think the founders of this country got it right when they said it's all about life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
	And the pursuit of happiness was not just hedonism.
	They had a much higher level of happiness.
	They were talking about pursuing virtue.
	They were not as childish as contemporary Americans are.
	But I mention that because I want to go back to this gigantic factory city.
	That is being built by this Taiwanese semiconductor, giant semiconductor company out of Taiwan, being built in Phoenix.
	And I talked about that.
	I said, you know, they've put $12 billion into it, that company.
	They've also gotten $12 billion in matching grants and subsidies and everything from the federal government because of part of this CHIPS Act.
	And it's a very interesting example of where they want to push us and are we going to allow ourselves to be cogs in a factory and are we going to allow this paranoid government of ours to rob us blind on things that are doomed to failure because that's what's happening with this thing it is a A situation that is going to fail.
	The guy who started, and just as a little bit of background, TSMC is one of the Taiwanese semiconductor manufacturing companies.
	One of, if not the biggest semiconductor manufacturers in the world.
	It was founded by a guy named Morris Chang, who is now 91 or 92 years old.
	He's retired, but he's still, like, one of the most revered people in Taiwan.
	He worked for Texas Instruments for 25 years.
	He left in 1983, the same time I left.
	No relation.
	Ha, ha.
	I was not important to the company at all like he was, and I'm sure he didn't know who I was either.
	He didn't leave because I left.
	He left because he could see a couple of things happening, and I saw those things happening, even as an entry-level engineer.
	First of all, with their state-of-the-art memory chips, they could not successfully get them manufactured in America.
	They didn't have the kind of discipline with the American workers that they did in Japan.
	And so the Japanese front ends, as we called them at the time, fabrication centers, were producing pretty much nearly 100%.
	They were charitable, some of the people said, well, 50%.
	But it was closer to 100% when I was there of their output.
	And so he looked at that, number one.
	Number two, he saw that Texas Instruments was moving into calculators and other things like that, and away from fundamental semiconductor manufacturing.
	And that was his specialty.
	He had been with them for 25 years.
	And so he left and he moved to Taiwan.
	He was originally from China.
	He wasn't from Taiwan, but he's from China.
	He goes to Taiwan.
	He gets involved as a consultant to government to try to get industry built up in the semiconductor thing, and they wind up funding TSMC. The Taiwanese government is still the largest shareholder in the company, although the majority of shares are owned by people, foreigners, outside of Taiwan.
	Still, they have a massive investment in it, and it is a massively important company for Taiwan.
	One third of their stock market value is this company.
	It's very profitable.
	It's very important.
	It is the fabrication unit for NVIDIA. As well as Apple and a lot of other companies.
	You see a lot of companies that design chips like NVIDIA don't actually do all the manufacturing themselves.
	What they do is they design the chip and then they send it out to a company that specializes just in semiconductor manufacturing.
	So fast forward to 2020.
	He has left the company two years earlier, but now the people who are running the company in 2020, after the lockdown, the Pentagon and the US government starts to get kind of paranoid about the fact that they've got supply chain issues that they created.
	And so they start looking as to how they can onshore some of this stuff, because these are the chips.
	You know, they are so large that in terms of their footprint and what they manufacture, that this is one of the concerns that people have in terms of China invading Taiwan.
	If that happens, we don't have chips for the jets.
	We don't have chips for all kinds of things, not just consumer stuff.
	But military stuff.
	And so that's why the government put together the Chips Act and started throwing tens of billions of dollars at these various companies to try to get them to start manufacturing in America again.
	And so what TSMC has done is they've taken essentially a smart city approach.
	We're going to create a smart city, and it is a very, very authoritarian corporate culture that they have created there.
	And so this is an article from a publication called Rest of the World.
	And they talked to a lot of people who had signed on to work for them and, you know, this experience.
	And, of course, as they made the determination that they were going to come to America, they hired a bunch of American engineers.
	And they said, we want you to come to Taiwan to learn the business.
	We're going to teach you here so that you can do this when we open up the facility.
	And so a lot of them have been doing this now for three or four years, and this thing has continually been delayed.
	Currently, they're thinking it's going to be in place in 2025.
	So in this particular story, they don't talk so much about the smart city aspect of it, which, again, it's more like these factory cities that you would see in China that Foxconn would open up, that they would put the suicide nets in.
	That's the problem with it.
	It's a very, very structured, authoritarian, abusive corporate environment that people in Asia are used to working with.
	They like to abuse people, publicly abuse them.
	They have people working 12-hour shifts.
	They decide that if something breaks down in the middle of the night, they're going to call you up and you're going to come down right now.
	You're not going to wait until the morning to fix it.
	And they brag about that.
	They say, that's part of our success.
	And it is.
	But is that really what our life is about?
	We're going to continue this on the other side.
	We've got Tony Arterman joining us, and we've had a lot of things happen in the wake of the election with finances, and so I wanted to get Tony on to talk about that.
	We've seen big changes in the stock market, in crypto, in gold and silver.
	So we're going to take a quick break, and we have Tony Arterman joining us.
	We will be right back.
	We will be right back.
	Thank you.
	We will be right back.
	Thank you.
	Liberty.
	It's your move.
	And now, The David Knight Show.
	all right welcome back and joining us now is tony artaban of wise wolf gold tony has given me a website davidknight.gold isn't that great to have a dot gold website after your name and if you go there that'll take you to wise wolf gold you can get gold silver you can join wolf pack and you can gradually save and average out your dollar costs and so we're going to talk about what has happened In the wake of the election,
	we've had a lot of big moves in the stock market, the crypto market, gold and silver, that type of thing, and yet has anything fundamentally changed?
	Joining us now is Tony Arterman.
	Thank you for joining us, Tony.
	Always great to be here, David.
	It's crazy what we've seen.
	We had the stock market Dow Jones went up 1,500 points to a record high after Trump won the election.
	You know, we saw before this, I remember Drudge trying to make a case that Lala was going to win.
	And he was saying, well, there's one outlier.
	You know, even though all the CEOs and all the editors of these liberal newspapers are running away from Lala and running to Trump, he said the stock market is doing really well.
	So that says that those in power, they anticipate this to continue.
	So that usually means that you're going to have the incumbent win.
	Well, she wasn't the incumbent.
	Trump was more of an incumbent.
	And so they're looking at this and they're thinking that this is going to be good for Wall Street.
	Tell us a little bit about your perspective on the stock market thing before we get into crypto and gold and silver.
	Sure.
	Well, I want to say from last week when we spoke and, you know, prior to the election, wanted to discuss the outcomes, whether it was a Harris win or a Trump win.
	And today I get to know how it feels to be Gerald Salente all the time because I called it last.
	Here's the headline on Kitco.
	Trump's victory spurs Bitcoin surge to 76,000 all-time high in the stock rally while gold and silver tumble.
	And that's what I said I thought would happen if it was a Trump selection.
	There would be a downturn in the precious metals markets temporarily because what that is, it's nothing...
	about the fundamentals of that market or that it's overpriced.
	It's people selling off their positions to get into cash and then buy into the stock market.
	And because it's a psychological threshold that was crossed with a Trump victory, because it signals a lot of things that are going to be different than in a Harris administration.
	And again, it may not even be policy, but it's the perceived changes.
	And that's what's going on.
	It's all psychological.
	I mean, Trump's not president.
	He cannot affect policy.
	And that's it.
	I mean, that's just a psychological move.
	And plus, what he's discussed with Bitcoin is what, you know, with the Nashville conference that I attended and RFK Jr.
	being, you know, in the periphery of his administration, that's driving that as well.
	But...
	Fundamentals, David.
	Again, you can get very wealthy dabbling in stocks.
	There's many examples of that, and I know people that do.
	I don't get into that side of the business because I don't believe that they're...
	Projections of profits or what they show equals wealth, you know, because they can always paper over it.
	That's the thing about stocks.
	You can always increase the amount of shares just like you can with the fiat currency.
	And so much of that, I mean, is hidden.
	You know, like the people that held Lehman stock or Enron or something like that or World Comp.
	I mean, they got burned and it looks good on, you know, temporarily.
	But again, it follows these trends that aren't necessarily built on anything.
	It's just a perceived value.
	And that's what happened after the Trump win on Tuesday.
	Yeah, I got burned very bad in the stock market with a dot-com crash on the I looked at it, and it's like, well, I'm not betting on any of these companies.
	It really is a bet.
	But I thought, well, I'll go with the real big manufacturers of the switching circuitry, because we know that the Internet's going to be there, right?
	But they all went down.
	I mean, Intel, everybody went down.
	It wasn't pet.com that went down.
	It was everybody.
	Because they built up the expectations.
	We're going to see the same thing happening with AI, I think, as well.
	But yeah, it is a betting market.
	And we saw one of these whales that was betting on the election.
	And I think he put in like $50 million and he made like a $25 million profit or whatever.
	But it is a bet.
	And that's really kind of what these guys are doing.
	It's kind of the same thing that this whale did to make a lot of money.
	And it's kind of the...
	The madness of crowds and this kind of contagion that is going through there.
	Because I think, Tony, what are they kind of betting on?
	Well, they're kind of betting on that Trump is going to lower taxes and he's going to do this and he's going to do that.
	And what's going to happen with that?
	That's going to be feeding the deficit more.
	It's going to be more inflation.
	Right.
	So, you know, that's when you look at the inflation stuff, it's really the hedge against that is not necessarily the goal of the stock market.
	The hedge is really gold against that type of inflation or crypto, if you look at it that way.
	And I think the crypto thing that you went to the Nashville conference, As you pointed out, where Trump was there and RFK Jr.
	was there.
	And they were talking about crypto and the fact that maybe we'll even have some of that as keeping that in reserve, have the federal government buying that.
	So I think that's a big part of what is happening to crypto right now.
	Well, I think the big story really is what Larry Fink of BlackRock wants.
	I mean, really, at the end of the day, the most successful ETF launch in history was BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF. I talked about that right in January when it was announced it was going to go through, and I said, now watch the price of Bitcoin.
	I think Bitcoin was $35,000 or $37,000, whatever it was, back in January.
	And I said, this is going to change the game because now you've got these big institutional players.
	It at least accelerated the timeline for Bitcoin.
	Anybody who's been in Bitcoin a long time knows that Bitcoin will stand on its own.
	But if you really want to drive the price and drive scarcity, that's what you'll do.
	So I really think that those proposals, maybe not so much from RFK Jr., but from Trump, or those are coming from other places.
	Those aren't coming from Trump's mind.
	I remember when he was talking in Nashville.
	It's like he was reading it for the first time because when he came across the, he said, and Bitcoin finally surpassed the market cap of silver.
	And he goes, wow.
	Like he's like he read it the first time.
	I don't think his mind is on Bitcoin, but definitely there's a lot of people backing him that have showed him what they plan to do.
	I don't oppose that.
	I mean, as long as you can still hold your private wallet, private keys, all the rest of that.
	I don't recommend buying ETFs, but I think that's really, to get to the point, that's the fundamentals behind what's driving Bitcoin.
	This perceived, you know, shift in what the administration, you know, the friendliness to Bitcoin, as you've seen, like the Biden administration was totally anti-crypto.
	And as a matter of fact, the Trump administration wasn't very friendly either, you know, the previous one.
	I think, though, with these new proposals and what's been discussed in Nashville, there's a lot that's going to happen in Bitcoin.
	That's something to watch.
	But again, it's not coming from policy, necessarily.
	It's coming from BlackRock.
	And that is a big, significant difference between the two of them, and that is their attitude towards crypto.
	As you pointed out, they were not friendly towards crypto in the Trump administration, and you had Jared Kushner and Steve Mnuchin start to talk about how they're going to do central bank digital currency.
	Of course, that's a competitor to crypto.
	And then with the Democrats, they went full-on war.
	And we're going to stop this.
	We're going to intimidate people.
	Don't make yourself an exchange for people to get...
	Enter out of this, and you're going to shut your bank down if you get into this type of thing.
	I mean, it was already full-on war, and it was going to accelerate.
	And so when Trump took the opposite approach, and then when he wins, that is really juicing this thing at this point in time.
	As I look at the CBDC, the Western countries, especially the Five Eyes, the U.S., U.K., Canada, New Zealand, Australia, have pulled back on their push for CBDC. I think they're not giving up on it.
	I think they're just trying to do it by stealth, and I think they're going to outsource this.
	And I would not be surprised if they do something like I played yesterday, a clip from Elon Musk.
	He said, I think I can make half of the world's financial system.
	It's exactly the same type of thing that Zuckerberg was trying to plot with Libra.
	Except I think Musk is smarter about it, and he might actually be used by them to put in a de facto central bank digital currency, digital money, global IDs, and stuff like that for a while, and then after people get acclimated to it, then they can just take it over.
	I don't know, but that's kind of the path that I see happening with that.
	I think you're right.
	I think it'll come through corporations.
	And now that we have, you know, kind of a clear view forward, we're no longer in the election process.
	It is interesting.
	You step back and you wonder, you know, these CBDC plans, you know that they were going full tilt towards that.
	And how do you get there?
	I mean, in order to build something back better, you have to destroy it first.
	I mean, I look at what they've done not doing anything about the petrodollar, weaponizing the dollar all around the world, just to...
	I mean, the ubiquitous sanctions and going full tilt into that, even though when it's hurting dollar utilization and increasing de-dollarization worldwide, it just made me think, okay, you've got a plan here.
	We're going to destroy the dollar, and people are going to beg for something different or something stable, and that would be a central bank digital currency.
	and you know you could get your credits loaded up or you just give your biometric data and all the rest and you sign up for this this new wallet so that's what i was thinking i'm not sure now i mean you may be right this with the um the corporation links and uh you know the silicon valley paypal mafia link to this new administration we have to watch that very closely that the technocracy uh really knows no party and then that's that's That's the cue here.
	They don't recognize party.
	They use both establishment parties, the duopoly, for their own ends.
	So that's what we still have to be very cautious about that.
	And the timeline may have changed a bit, but it's still coming.
	CBDC will be a reality.
	You know, the World Economic Forum wasn't wrong.
	Ninety-seven percent of countries have adopted CBDC. Some form of a plan for central bank digital currencies.
	So, yeah, this is a change for sure.
	This result on the election is going to change some things.
	But ultimately, all that's still on the table.
	De-dollarization's still on the table, David.
	All the fundamentals.
	People forget Trump printed 40% of all the dollars ever made.
	It was Biden said, hold my beer, and he doubled it.
	I mean, so I see, you know, again, we have a history.
	We already know what a Trump administration looks like.
	And, you know, when he ran in 2015, 2016, he ran against the stock market.
	He ran against the Federal Reserve.
	He said, we got to audit that.
	We got to look into that.
	And, you know, it was vague, but he ran against it.
	He said the stock market's a bubble.
	And then when he was elected, he said, look, greatest stock market of all time.
	That's right.
	You know, and I think that's the issue is that the stock market's built off of debt.
	And its ties to the central bank and how much liquidity it can get and the lowering of interest rates, which is inflation.
	All of that is inflationary.
	And I think Trump will push more of that.
	I mean, it'll look good on paper.
	Your 401k might look good for a little while.
	But the fundamentals of that is that the currency is losing value.
	And I don't think that these companies are sound, a lot of them that are seeing these rallies right now.
	Oh, I agree.
	Yeah, that's the difference between the approach of the two.
	You know, the Democrats will come on you straight ahead, right?
	And so Biden, back in 2022, he's saying, okay, I want everybody in the swamp, you know, everybody that's all the agencies that are under the executive branch, one of these four areas.
	He's going to redesign the financial system.
	We're going to figure out how law enforcement is going to force it on people.
	We are going to write the code, and we're going to tell people how we've got to do it to save the environment, right?
	And then all of a sudden, they look at AI and it's like, oh, wait a minute, we've got to think about number four.
	We're going to have to pivot a little bit here because this energy thing is not working out for us.
	And then they realize that people know what they're going to pull.
	And so they're going to step it back and they're going to do it iteratively, as Fauci said, right?
	Step by step.
	And that's the danger of the Republican approach.
	They always get this stuff in.
	You know, the people will say, oh, we've got a Republican president now, so I'm not going to buy any guns.
	And so they stop buying guns.
	When a Democrat gets in, they buy the guns.
	And then it's the Republican who comes in and says, we're going to take the guns and do the due process later.
	We're going to start doing gun control by executive order.
	So they always run this stuff in.
	Sometimes it's a frontal attack.
	Sometimes it's just in the, you know, they get people's trust and they exploit that trust and get people to go to sleep.
	And that's the key thing.
	That's why I want people to realize that.
	This agenda that they've got is not going away, and none of the fundamentals as you were talking about in terms of deficit and money creation and all the rest of this stuff, de-dollarization, none of that is changing under Trump any differently than it would have been under Biden, except that people are going to be kind of pacified and not really paying attention as much because it's going to be coming from Trump, I think.
	Yeah, well, count me out of being pacified on any of that stuff.
	I pretty much saw what was going to come, and it's this rally in the stock market, gold and silver take a dive for a bit.
	But it all comes back.
	It'll come back because the fundamentals are still there.
	There's something wrong with our currency.
	There's something wrong with our policy.
	You know, and if there is a massive change, a sea change geopolitically by the Trump administration, that could move things.
	I don't see that happening.
	I mean, you know, the personnelist policy, last time he hired everybody who didn't vote for him, so I don't know.
	I mean, will he bring some sort of ease from the tensions geopolitically with, you know, things like Russia and Ukraine?
	Will he actually stop that?
	Will he slow down our accelerated path to World War III? I hope so.
	I hope I'm wrong.
	But I think, you know, again, Central banks are buying gold at a record pace.
	That will continue because the dollar is losing purchasing power.
	And in order for the government to function, David, I mean, all these plans, all these things that they want to do, neither candidate in this election ran on fiscal responsibility or balancing the budget or anything that would have been talked about in the 1990s.
	It would have been out front, by the way, in the 1990s, and they would have shown the debt clock and everything else.
	They stopped doing that a long time ago because the numbers are so bad.
	It gives up the game.
	I mean, literally, if you have a brain at all, if you're paying attention, you go, well, those numbers aren't sustainable.
	Well, no, they're not.
	And so it will stop.
	Eventually, you will have to be, and that's why they float these terms like reset, financial reset worldwide.
	That's what these banks...
	Folks, it's not because they necessarily think that they're going to be a wealthier country.
	It's because they want to have a functioning country.
	These central banks are buying gold because they're going to re-denominate all of their currencies in gold.
	That's what they're doing.
	They're going to reset all these balance sheets and stuff that's been held over since.
	By the way, a lot of the gold that's held in these balance sheets is marked at $35 an ounce.
	It never moved.
	Hmm.
	Because that was the way it was at Bretton Woods in 1944.
	A lot of these countries never rebalanced it and never revalued it.
	And a lot of that's what all this stuff with the BRICS is for, for their cross-border payments.
	What they're doing is they're not setting up a unified currency.
	They're setting up a way for all of them to trade currencies against their gold across their borders and for trade.
	That's really what this is.
	The dollar is already lost globally.
	You know, when the Bank of International Settlements gave gold, you know, tier one reserve asset status, I think it was only a few years ago, that was massive because it had only been currencies and gold got listed and now it's supplanted the euro as number two.
	Number one is the dollar for most held reserve asset.
	Those days are just passing.
	And I think a lot of these countries, especially the central banks that are buying the most gold, see that.
	And that's what's going to change.
	Again, the dollar, a Trump victory, a Harris victory, the dollar's been damaged.
	It's mortally wounded.
	And it's going to have to change in form.
	It has to, just based off of, again, the debasement.
	And Larry Fink, BlackRock, says it doesn't make any difference between the two of them.
	He said, you know, for what we're doing, it doesn't make any difference.
	He knows that it's not going to make any difference.
	And, you know, when you look at when everything starts to crash and we've got all these different derivatives and we've got ETFs and all the rest of this, you know, what does it go back to?
	It's got to go back to something real.
	Well, you know, you could look at things like land, but it's hard for most of us to own the land outright.
	And, of course, with property taxes, you never will.
	Gold, you're not going to, you know, you can actually own that outright, you know, and so it's a different perspective, and of course it's somebody that's really bearish on all of this stuff.
	I think that's where the people who are looking at gold are not seeing a very bright path ahead for the financial aspects of this.
	Got a couple of comments.
	Audi Modern Retro Radio says, Tony's Wise Wolf customer service is excellent.
	I had to switch credit cards, so I re-enrolled using David Knight's promo link, and Tony handled it quickly.
	Well, thank you for letting us know.
	And then for Love of the Road, thank you for the tip.
	He says, please ask Tony if he plans on getting involved with a Bitcoin IRA like he has with a precious metals IRA. Hope he gets that.
	Wolfpack Bitcoin up soon.
	He says, loading, trucking, ATM. I'll listen later, though.
	So, yeah.
	What do you think?
	That's a great question.
	There are some good products out there that are Bitcoin IRAs.
	We get so busy with the gold and silver IRAs, I haven't thought even to link those up.
	That most likely will be an option, though, if we find some way, just like we've done with New Direction Trusts, That's an option.
	The Wise Wolf Bitcoin will be operational soon.
	This kind of stuff, I tell you, the more regulations that they have, it's harder and harder to do any kind of startups.
	You have to have a certain type of banks, and it takes forever.
	With my schedule, it takes three times, four times as much as it used to take me because I can't We can see just how much they have ramped up all these know-your-customer rules and all the rest of this stuff.
	Yeah, because on Rockfin, when people give us a tip, they convert it into their own cryptocurrency or whatever.
	And then I've got to hop out of that.
	I've got to hop into Ethereum, and then from Ethereum into a dollar type of thing.
	And to have to deal with these exchanges, the regulations that are coming out of Washington, to try to shut that down, essentially, with rules and regulations.
	I can't imagine what it's like to be a dealer.
	I mean, you've got to be a big corporation, really, to try to jump through these hoops.
	Maybe that will change under a Trump administration.
	If they're friendly to crypto, one of the key things that they should do is start removing all these arbitrary regulations that have been put in to kind of de facto shut it down, I think.
	Well, I think that is a big difference.
	You know, we talk about the duopoly, and most things are the same, whether it's left or right paradigm.
	I totally agree with that.
	But in this instance, and I think, again, the reason it's so stark contrast It's because of things like BlackRock, Larry Fink.
	With the ETFs, again, with Bitcoin, that's what's primarily driving this policy change.
	BlackRock's going to get their return.
	They made a bet on Bitcoin.
	They're going to get their return.
	And I think with the Just the fundamentals of everything that came out of the Biden administration and Elizabeth Warren.
	They're useful tools against things that are anything free market.
	Nobody would believe them.
	It's the reason that LBJ and JFK could have never opened China, but Nixon could, because he was anti-communist.
	So it's like the perceived free market You know, advocate as people perceive Trump as, but I don't.
	You know, he's, you know, so many crony capitalist moves or eminent domain stuff that you and I would never do.
	But he's come along and back this.
	And for good or ill, I think, and I think for Bitcoin and people that are private holders of Bitcoin or understand, this is going to be a, this is the bull market.
	This is going to be, this is life changing.
	You know, again, if he follows through, even if he's 30-40% into what he said.
	Some of the things that were discussed in Nashville, David, were RFK Jr.
	saying that if he was elected, he would order the Treasury to buy like 500 Bitcoin a day until it reached 20%.
	Of the world's reserves, just like we supposedly have 20% of the world's gold reserves.
	We don't, by the way, spoiler alert, we don't have that.
	But that's what he said that he would do as president.
	And of course, Trump came and had a lot less specific policy rolled out, but he did mention a strategic reserve asset and that he would not move the current Bitcoin that was held over from seizures like Silk Road and things like that.
	You need to give that back to Ross Ulbrich.
	That's right.
	Hopefully he'll let him out.
	But yeah, they just had a Bitcoin Policy Institute just put out a 53-page report about setting up a strategic Bitcoin reserve, exactly what they were talking about at that conference.
	That's right.
	There's a...
	There was a move made after Trump announced that, too, by the Biden administration, kind of answering him.
	They sold off a big chunk of the Bitcoin that it already held because he said he was going to hold it.
	I don't know if you followed that.
	So there was a difference.
	And this may be one of the most underlying differences, glaring ones that actually existed between the two candidates.
	And I think moving forward, it's going to be...
	Bitcoin is in a bull market now and will continue...
	I mean, you might see some pullback.
	And I'm not giving investment advice, but if you don't know about Bitcoin and you take a look at the fundamentals here, really it's about how much supply is there.
	And it's not a heavy supply, especially with the inflows they're doing in these ETFs.
	And they're just buying it up in massive quantities.
	So something to watch there.
	I think the Bitcoin market continues to be bullish.
	Gold and silver will continue to do what they do.
	It just won't be as fast.
	I mean, I think some of the things that were driving the price of gold and silver, gold especially under the Biden administration, was just there was no moves made economically to help anything to bolster the strength of the U.S. economy.
	I mean, we saw moves like just depleting the strategic petroleum reserves and then not refilling them and stuff like that.
	Who's at war with us?
	It's like looting the treasury.
	Yeah.
	Yes.
	Yeah.
	But, you know, one thing that's not going to change, I see this headline from Kitco, Can the U.S. Survive Its Debt?
	The Doom Loop Trap and Golden Dollar's Future Under Trump.
	That's, you know, this debt.
	That Trump escalated is really a doom loop, and I fully expect for him to do that as well this next time.
	I think he's going to do exactly the same type of thing.
	And so, you know, I think, first of all, the debt is crushing, and it's going to continue.
	Once he changed the slope at which it was increasing, Biden kept that going, and I think Trump is going to do that again.
	If not, Set it on a whole new trajectory, a steeper slope.
	And so I think that doom loop is a trap, and I think that the debt thing is not going to change regardless of Trump coming in.
	None of that's going to change.
	It may actually get worse.
	It may actually get worse.
	Yes.
	Again, because Trump is looking to reform or so-called reform, I think what you're going to see is just a lot of bipartisanship and other things.
	The government got bigger.
	Under Trump.
	I mean, there was a huge amount of spending increase, and especially with COVID-1984, it really remains to be seen.
	He's not a fiscal hawk.
	He doesn't see it that way.
	And, you know, his rhetoric has always been that he leverages through debt, and that's what the U.S. economy is built off of.
	I would love to see some jobs coming back, if he's going to be strategic about tariffs or anything.
	Again, we'll just see.
	It's on the table.
	We don't know what's going to happen yet.
	I just have the past to be my guide.
	I know what four years of the Trump administration looked like prior, 2017 to 2021, so I know that.
	Mm-hmm.
	And, you know, the precious metals markets, which gold and silver are money, they're going to continue to strengthen, and they're going to continue to grow in value, or if you want to say value, it's really the loss of purchasing power of the dollar.
	The dollar will continue to lose purchasing power, because that's built into a fake fiat currency.
	Yes, yes.
	And I think a lesson for all of us is take a look at what is happening in China, for example.
	They had this Potemkin wealth.
	They built all these Potemkin villages everywhere, Potemkin skyscrapers, and a lot of people became paper billionaires.
	Now, a third of all the billionaires have lost their billionaire status because of this property market that is crashing.
	So I think that's one of the key things.
	When you look at it, what are you going to do to protect your wealth?
	And as I said before, even with property, you know, the taxes that are attached to it and everything, it has to be maintained like that.
	Whereas if you have gold as kind of a wealth insurance, once you get it, you've got it, that type of thing.
	And so that's what I look at.
	That and trying to be outside of the digital system, that's a real premium for me.
	To be outside of this whole digital system, I got Do Not Obey here says, yes, thank you, Tony.
	Got my package yesterday.
	Happy customer.
	Thumbs up.
	Wolfpack Gold.
	So another happy customer.
	And I've known Tony for a very long time.
	And I've had nothing but good experiences with Tony throughout all these different years.
	And so I really do appreciate what you do.
	So tell us a little bit about what's happening specifically at Wise Wolf.
	Well, I mean, after the election, we saw there was an uptick and there was some liquidity, people selling, as I predicted, because they're going to get out of the precious metals.
	They feel like it's safe to return to the markets, and I hope they do well, and they'll be back.
	That's okay.
	We're buying and selling in whatever kind of market.
	It doesn't matter.
	And the main priority right now is just to make sure we have supply.
	I did an interview with Andy Sheckman from Miles Franklin on the Wise Wolf Golden Crypto Show this week.
	We had a great conversation.
	He reminded me, he said, most people don't understand, but you do.
	If there was massive orders right now placed for physical precious metals, it would break the system.
	There would be no metals.
	That would dramatically change the price structure.
	That's what's wrong.
	That's what we both agreed on, is that there's something fundamentally wrong with the pricing structure of precious metals because the law of supply and demand really doesn't fit here because of the paper, because of the contracts and things that are out there.
	I'm going to release that in the next couple of days.
	It was a great talk.
	But really, that's coming from somebody like Andy, who's been in this for decades with his father.
	And just seeing just about every market, he and I both agreed the number one pressing issue was supply.
	It's the reason I have, I'm in Texas right now, but it's the reason we have the secondary physical location.
	I can't see how I could do a third, but we definitely need supply.
	And that's the thing is just supplying Wolfpack is hard.
	And, you know, we can buy from wholesalers, but to really pass on the savings and things, it's just tough.
	It's tough to get supplied.
	It's tough to get delivered.
	Yeah.
	Well, you've always been able to do it up to this point.
	You've done a great job.
	We've had crazy market for the last month every week, setting a couple of new all-time highs and everything.
	So it is time that we're going to see kind of a buying opportunity.
	I think that's the way a lot of people might think of this if they want to look at it for the long term in terms of wealth insurance and that type of thing.
	But it's always been great talking to you and working with you, Tony.
	I really do appreciate what you do.
	Thank you so much.
	Appreciate you, sir.
	Thank you.
	Thank you.
	All right, folks.
	Oh, by the way, let's not forget that Tony's got a program coming up.
	Thank you.
	You can find me on Rockfin, on the America Unplugged channel, Rumble on the America Unplugged channel, and on my Twitter, at Tony Arterburn.
	You can find me there.
	We'll be live here at 11 a.m.
	Central.
	That's right.
	Right after this program, Tony's program begins.
	You can find him all those different places.
	Thank you so much, Tony.
	We're going to take a quick break, folks, and we'll be right back.
	Thank you.
	ORCHESTRA PLAYS
	.
	In a world of deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.
	You're listening to The David Knight Show.
	I was talking before Tony came on about TSMC and about the U.S. government's desire to onshore them, this kind of production, heavily subsidize it.
	And of course, they're not just doing it with TSMC, the Taiwanese company.
	They're also doing it with Intel and others.
	They're desperate to try to get that kind of manufacturing back into the United States.
	But what was interesting about this article, I think, It was the clash of cultures, the different attitudes towards work.
	And we can pull back and say, you know, Americans have a very different attitude towards this.
	And, you know, who's right on this?
	It's a different culture.
	And I guess it depends on what you want out of life when you look at it.
	So they followed the example of this guy.
	He's a young engineer, Bruce.
	He goes to Taiwan to be trained.
	And he gets there, and everybody is speaking in Mandarin Chinese or Taiwanese.
	And so they can't understand anything.
	They're supposed to have a buddy who goes around with them translating everything, but he says they're working everybody so hard that the translators aren't really bringing them along and telling them anything.
	And it's kind of interesting because I went to work for TI. They were doing, at that point in time, they were trying to get into, that's 44 years ago, They were trying to get into this semi-custom semiconductors.
	Like I said before, they're kind of a fab unit for what TSMC has done is to fabricate semiconductors for Apple and for NVIDIA. Of course, one of our customers is Apple.
	And we would go through this process where we would...
	Do the beginning steps of chip construction, making just a generic array of gates or transistors.
	And then the final customization step would be to route those all together into a custom circuit.
	And so we're trying to sell it to people to replace an entire circuit board and bring it down to kind of a black box.
	I see, which is going to help them in terms of cost and power consumption, but also protect them somewhat from reverse engineering and piracy, which would be very easy.
	If you've got a print circuit board, people could reverse engineer that.
	So that was kind of the business that they were getting into, but this guy who founded TSMC... Saw that TI was really kind of getting out of that business and going more into end products like calculators and other things like that.
	So he founded this country.
	And when I was there, they had people...
	When I began, the group that I was in, we had...
	I was there as the American, and they had somebody from Germany, from France, from the UK, from Japan, all these places where they were going to do business with corporations, and they were all learning the system.
	And...
	And they spoke English to one degree or the other.
	The French and German guy spoke a little bit of English.
	The Japanese guy spoke absolutely no English at all.
	But he never socialized with anybody either.
	He just kept his head down.
	He could read English great.
	He's a great engineer.
	But he didn't socialize with anybody at all.
	But that was kind of what was happening in China when these guys go over there.
	And it was a very difficult situation for them.
	Wearing them down.
	And so as they come back to the U.S., trying to get these things going in the U.S., they brought over a lot of the Taiwanese people.
	And as this, the guy who was running it, Morris Chang, He had told Nancy Pelosi when they passed the CHIP Act, he said this is going to end in disaster.
	When Nancy Pelosi visited Taiwan in 2022 as they were passing this CHIP Act, Chang lectured her on the challenges that the U.S. would face in mastering the microscopic precision required in CHIP production.
	Chang has also since warned about the lack of manufacturing talent in the U.S., how hard it would be for Taiwanese managers to supervise Americans.
	Speaking to the podcast called Vying for Talent in 2022, Chang concluded that the U.S.'s attempts to onshore semiconductor manufacturing would be, quote, in futility and it was exactly what happened they're trying to So it'd be like trying to copy Chinese text into a handwriting recognition program.
	It's not going to work very well.
	But they have combined this with the kind of mentality that is prevalent in Asian societies of just head down and you're working as hard as you can and you sacrifice your private life.
	And that was something that they just could not get the Americans to do.
	And can we blame them?
	I mean, do we really want to work in an environment like that?
	That's what I thought was interesting about this.
	He said when he was comparing Taiwan's competitiveness compared to the U.S., he said, if a machine breaks down at 1 in the morning in the U.S., it'll be fixed in the next morning.
	But in Taiwan, it will be fixed by 2 a.m.
	He said the wife of the Taiwanese engineer would go back to sleep without saying another word.
	But that's not going to happen in the U.S. And should it?
	Is that really what we want out of life?
	Right?
	Managers sometimes applied what they called stress tests by announcing assignments due to the same day or week to make sure that Americans were able to meet tight deadlines and to sacrifice personal time, like the Taiwanese workers did.
	And so they were pushing them to do tasks that the Americans understood were not necessary, which is to see if they would sacrifice their lives to the company.
	Is that really what we want out of life?
	I mean, when I look at this, it's like there's no way that I would have anything to do with this.
	And I imagine most Americans wouldn't either.
	And so they would...
	They would openly insult them and browbeat them in front of other people.
	This is also an Asian thing, pretty much.
	I remember when we adopted our daughter, the family that she was staying with gave her a letter of advice, and we had it translated, and the guy said, always do what your government says, and always do what your, you know, obey, obey, obey, obey.
	We said, well, it's come to the wrong family for that kind of stuff.
	Several former American employees said they were not against working longer hours, As long as the task was meaningful.
	In other words, don't just waste my time.
	I mean, you want to talk about efficiency?
	What about the efficiency of my time?
	And there was absolutely no recognition of it.
	It was a very imbalanced relationship.
	Well, we're going to tell you what to do and you're going to jump.
	And when we tell you to jump, you're going to jump even higher.
	And that is a key part of this.
	Bruce said working conditions didn't improve once they got to Arizona.
	The American workers didn't get any more of a say in how the company was run.
	They found the obsequiousness of their Taiwanese colleagues to be irritating.
	The Americans also resented that Taiwanese colleagues stayed late in the office for no good reason.
	He said, that really makes me angry.
	So they're just doing this to show off.
	And to show that they belong to the company.
	Do we want to live by slavery?
	That's the key thing, right?
	We don't want to live by lies, but we don't want to make ourselves slaves to this kind of techno-feudalism.
	And that's really the mindset from where these smart cities are coming from.
	This is what the corporations want from you.
	This is what Elon Musk demands from his engineers.
	And so, is that really the existence that we want to live under?
	I remember one guy was talking about visiting his child's classroom in kindergarten on a parent-teacher's day or something like that.
	And the teacher was talking about their activities and all the rest of the stuff.
	He raised his hand and he goes, what is the purpose of this?
	You say, purpose?
	I don't know what the purpose is.
	It's like, you don't have a purpose in all of this?
	We never think many times about what the purpose of anything that we do in life is, right?
	Four American employees described TSMC culture as a save-face culture.
	In early 2023, they held weekly English language and cultural classes for the Taiwanese managers.
	A former TSMC staffer who worked on the education program said that managers were instructed not to yell at employees in public or to threaten to fire them without first consulting human resources.
	They would say, okay, okay, I get it.
	I'm not going to do that.
	And then they would go do it.
	Anyway, it's just the culture that they've had.
	Workers started joking that joining TSMC was just a stepping stone to Intel, which was also expanding in Arizona.
	An engineer who has worked at both Intel and TSMC said that Taiwanese colleagues had also asked him about vacancies at Intel.
	You see, just because they're Asian, they don't like to be abused.
	It is something that is expected and pushed in that society.
	This company, as I said, is about a third of the stock market value.
	A massive company and a company that is so strategically important that in Taiwan they talk about it as a mountain that protects the country against Chinese aggression.
	But the TSMC, one person said, one American, was the worst possible place on earth to work.
	He said it was like having a purely authoritarian work structure.
	But it fits perfectly into this smart city thing.
	And they are expanding this.
	Initially, they put in $12 billion, and the U.S. government put in $12 billion.
	They have now upped the ante, but they still don't have it up and operating.
	And so one person said the only thing they need this Phoenix site for is to make sure the U.S. government doesn't turn against them.
	There's always these alternative motives that are out there.
	And I mentioned the culture, and I mentioned the work environment, because I wanted to end up with this story here.
	Gen Z is getting very interested in skilled trades.
	The interest in skilled trades is rising.
	The interest in going to college is falling.
	And that's true of both Generation Z as well as their parents.
	55% of Gen Zers are considering a skilled trade career, up from 12% just last year, including 72% of those who already have a college degree.
	There's a company called Thumbtack that helps people to care for and to improve their homes.
	It helps them to find a skilled tradesman nearby.
	So you get into that, and that's kind of your marketing approach outreach to people.
	84%, they said, of both Gen Zers and their parents expressed high respect for skilled trades.
	67% of Gen Zers, including 78% of those with a college degree, I think?
	The word is getting out that we need to have the ability to not be part of a collective cog.
	That's the problem with these big corporations.
	That's the problem with the big cities as well.
	And if we're going to follow the prescribed path that business wants us to, you go to college and they brainwash you with the DEI, they get you pacified into this corporate culture, and you become a cog in the wheel, or...
	You can start to learn individual skilled trades that are going to give you some level of independence and freedom.
	And that's what people are starting to realize.
	It's a very important contrast, I think.
	Compared with an office job, the trades offer an opportunity to run your own company, to control your own schedule, to pursue a career you enjoy.
	Only 41% of Gen Z reported having any access to trade programs in school, however.
	Gen Z college graduates are seven times more likely to regret attending college than pros who attended a trade school.
	Eighty-three percent of pros would still choose a skilled trade career if they could turn the clock back and decide again.
	Eighty percent of parents agree that learning a skilled trade can be a better pathway to economic security than going to a college.
	However, 77 percent of parents still say they've encouraged their kids to attend a four-year college.
	Because they're trapped in this mindset.
	You know I talked about it briefly.
	The Amish, and how at 13, you know, they stop formal education.
	By that time, they don't mess around with pubic school.
	They've been learning how to do math and reading and all this other kind of stuff.
	And they start an apprenticeship, and they start to learn a skill.
	They then have a job and independence and that type of thing.
	And if we want to have that kind of society, and that really is what makes a strong and resilient country as well.
	It's not being subservient to these multinational corporations or to government and to serve them in their system.
	We've got to think outside of this box that they're putting us in.
	And I think that's one of the most important things that we could pass on to our children and grandchildren is to try to get outside of the system that they have because it is as smothering and as confining as the smart cities.
	Because the corporate culture, even whether or not they have a smart city there in Phoenix, that corporate culture that's been created in Taiwan, it's great for the people at the top to have all these little worker bees there.
	But they don't have a life.
	And we've seen this in the Japanese society.
	We've seen it in China as well.
	We don't want a society that runs on suicide nets.
	We want a society where people have life and liberty.
	And can pursue, independently pursue their happiness When we come back, we're going to take a look at Bill Gates He's working on getting diplomatic immunity in Kenya Yeah, he's kind of buying a country now, more or less We'll be right back Here's a little song I wrote.
	You might want to hear it in your pod.
	You know nothing.
	And be happy.
	Ain't got no cash.
	Ain't got no car.
	But 24 booster shots in your arm.
	Oh, nothing.
	Be happy.
	You can't even buy shit in the store because of your low social credit score.
	Own nothing.
	be happy you will own nothing And be happy.
	Be happy and eat some bugs.
	Using free speech to free minds.
	It's the David Knight Show.
	Well, let's talk a little bit about Bill Gates and about his efforts to enslave us into this kind of techno-feudalism.
	The Gates Foundation has now purchased diplomatic immunity in Kenya.
	One person said, this is a big red flag.
	Under this new status, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and its employees are exempt from legal action for acts that they perform in Kenya as part of their official foundation duties.
	You know, like poisoning people with vaccines.
	And not only that, but they've got a kind of diplomatic immunity.
	For Bill and Melinda Gates, the foundation, its employees, they call them, in the diplomatic community thing, they call them servants.
	That's a good way to describe them.
	Serfs, servants, slaves.
	Under the new status of foundation, its employees are exempt from legal action for acts performed as part of their official foundation duties, injecting people, poisoning people.
	They're also exempt from paying taxes on their salaries.
	And they can own property.
	They're exempt from paying property taxes.
	I wonder how Donald Rainwater did in Indiana.
	Think about that.
	He had a great idea about a terminus point for property taxes.
	You pay 7% when you buy it, 7% of what the market price is.
	That's fair, right?
	Don't keep reevaluating what the market price is.
	And don't keep charging people, raising the rates and changing it.
	No, you charge 7%.
	And you can pay it all up front, put it in your mortgage, amortize it over 30 years, or you can pay it over seven years in equal installments.
	He was running for governor.
	But that was a great idea.
	I really think that's a perfect way to handle that issue.
	But back to this.
	What is happening in Kenya?
	While nations around the world have long treated Bill Gates as a head of state, It's now been practically codified into law in Kenya, wrote the author of The Bill Gates Problem.
	He wrote a book about it.
	His name is Schwab, not Klaus, another Schwab.
	I was going to tell you the story about my friend Bill Gates.
	It's a tell-all book by Klaus Schwab.
	Now, this is a different Schwab.
	He said the decision has raised alarm bells within the country and across the world.
	Because I expect other organizations to do this, maybe in the same country or in other countries.
	Concerns have also arisen that other nations be pressured to follow Kenya's lead and to offer immunity to the Gates Foundation in exchange for continued access to the massive resources that they pour into the African countries.
	The government of Kenya's announcement comes just a week after farmer organizations and religious leaders across the continent called for reparations for the damage that the Gates Foundation has inflicted on African agriculture to its so-called Green Revolution program.
	They say the foundation promotes corporate industrial agriculture at the expense of local practices and African ecosystems.
	And we've seen how this has worked in India, for example.
	Pierre Omidyar, the guy who bankrolled, what's the name of that, Intercept that Glenn Greenwald worked for initially.
	That was bankrolled by a billionaire named Pierre Omidyar, and he had a lot of Indian farmers that were committing suicide.
	Primarily because of the types of programs that Omidyar was putting out and Monsanto where they would take these poor farmers and they would sell them Monsanto GMO seeds that could survive glyphosate and it would kill the weeds and then the plant would rise up and you get a poisoned plant for people to eat.
	But the land was also poisoned.
	And you could not plant any other seeds other than Monsanto seeds.
	And you had to buy them every year.
	And they kept putting the price up.
	And so these farmers had lost everything.
	And large numbers of them were committing suicide.
	Well, Gates is playing that same game in Africa.
	Much of the Gates Foundation investment in African agriculture happens through an organization called AGRA. It stands for Alliance for a Green Revolution in Africa, AGRA. The Gates Foundation is AGRA's co-founder and its biggest donor.
	And it has been given at least $872 million by the Gates Foundation.
	This alliance promotes the use of synthetic fertilizers and commercial seeds controlled by Big Ag and the restructuring of seed laws to criminalize the trading of seeds if they are not certified by Big Ag.
	Think about that.
	Not only do they get you to poison your land and become dependent on it, but if you don't want to go that route, if you're smart enough to avoid that, they will criminalize the sale of other seeds.
	That's what happens when they buy the government.
	They prohibit this stuff.
	And that's what we have to be concerned about with meat and dairy.
	And that's why I talked yesterday about how important these local solutions and state solutions are.
	Just within the last week, we saw six counties in Idaho say we're going to ban this vaccine, this Trump shot, this mRNA vaccine.
	And then we had...
	We had an election where they were talking about marijuana, whether they were going to make it recreational or not.
	And regardless of the issue of marijuana, what you think about it, the principle is that we have a UN agenda, which is what the War on Drugs is.
	And the UN created these schedules, and they put marijuana in as a Schedule 1, saying that it doesn't have any medical use, and yet two-thirds of the states have refuted that.
	They have nullified not only federal law, but the federal law that was slavishly following a UN agenda.
	And we need to understand that principle.
	Don't get hung up on the marijuana issue.
	The principle is nullification, and the fact that you can stop this at the state and local level.
	That's why they would always say, think globally, act locally.
	We can block them locally if we understand what they're doing.
	And when they come in and want to prohibit not marijuana, but meat and dairy, which they have said they want to do, when they come in with a meat and dairy prohibition, we know how we can stop it.
	We've already done it in many different places.
	So the foundation has financial ties to Monsanto, now Bayer, and it pushed those seeds on African farmers, just like they had been pushed in India.
	Kenya becomes the testing ground.
	That is the big concern, and that is the big red flag.
	Because he's bought his way in with this corrupt government, very corrupt government.
	In terms of food sovereignty, as we give Gates these privileges and these immunities, Africa is going to be not food sovereign, not seed sovereign.
	We're going to be slaves.
	Slaves to big corporations.
	You see?
	This is how they get us, through that kind of buying out the government.
	Schwab said the move by the Kenyan government and the concerns raised by critics, quote, get to the heart of the Gates' anti-democratic influence and power, which, at least in Kenya, appears to be reaching all new levels.
	No one ever elected or appointed Gates to lead the world on any topic, says Schwab.
	Yet he's able to buy a seat in the Democratic decision-making table.
	And apparently he can also buy diplomatic immunity now.
	He's got a place, a country, that he can go to live where they won't lock him up.
	What's he worried about?
	He knows very well what he's done.
	Why would you go in and buy a bunch of politicians so that you have legal immunity for what you're doing if you know that you are doing the right thing?
	Gates' massive investment in Africa extends beyond agriculture into public health more recently, into digital ID in Kenya.
	And again, that's not surprising.
	When we look at the things that Bill Gates is focused on, ID 2020, where he wanted to have global ID by 2020, and he'd already started that in India, partnering with the Indian government to put in the Adhar system.
	There was going to be, well, you take a number, take the mark of the beast, the mark of the government, or you're not going to get, in this particular case, not a job or other things like that, or banking.
	These are the poorest people that they leaned on.
	They said, well, we'll give you welfare, we'll give you health care, but you're going to have to take a number, and your child will have to take that number.
	Bill Gates has been working very hard.
	He wanted to have the goal of a global ID by ID 2020.
	He made a lot of strides with the vaccine passports and other things like that in 2020.
	He also has another goal, and that is IA. Immunization Agenda 2030.
	And the subtitle of that organization, if you go to their website, is everyone, everywhere, every age immunized.
	Implied for everything, right?
	Six dozen shots or whatever by the time you get to a young age.
	And then the agricultural aspect of it.
	So he's focused on ID, he's focusing on vaccines, depopulation, and also on food, depopulation.
	That's why it's really key, you know, when we look at the FDA, RFK Jr.
	says, well, we go into the FDA, we're going to need to get rid of entire departments.
	No, you need to get rid of the entire FDA. Food and drugs, okay?
	That is really what Gates is focusing on.
	If you want to kill people, you focus on food and drugs.
	And that's what he wants to do.
	He wants to kill people.
	He wants to control you, to number you.
	But he also wants to control your food, and he wants to drug you.
	Demands to drug you.
	He has the Target Malaria Project in Africa, where they introduced genetically modified mosquitoes.
	And critics say the program is based on flawed ecological thinking, of course, backed by the same agribusiness interests that have been devastating agroecological farming systems.
	Schwab pointed to the widespread criticism of Gates' program to implement mass circumcision in Swaziland and Zambia.
	To curb the transmission of HIV. Well, now, that is interesting because that has been shown to make a big difference in the transmission of HIV. I remember when Dean Adele, talk radio back in the early 90s, he was one of the pioneers of talk radio, one of the first nationally syndicated things.
	He was a doctor, and he just became so obsessed with circumcision.
	He was Jewish, and he hated circumcision.
	It's like, okay, we've heard it.
	Move on.
	You got something else you want to talk about?
	And then they find out, and he had a chip on his shoulder about it.
	He says, so you tell me, did God make a mistake?
	Is that why we got to get circumcised?
	All this stuff.
	It's like, well, they have found that it does stop the transmission or greatly reduce the transmission of HIV. So Gates is correct about that.
	However, it's another one of these things that's been a, let's say, a point of irritation between him and the native population.
	Gates' most wide-reaching investments in Africa have been, of course, with vaccines.
	In April 2013, he said that eradicating polio was his top priority, even though there had only been 19 cases of it worldwide that year.
	Just like the COVID shots, right?
	And remember when you had Trump on with Rogan.
	As soon as Rogan even remotely breached the topic of vaccines, Trump pivoted away from his shots, that he's so proud of usually, and the mRNA vaccine.
	He pivoted away to polio.
	And even though Rogan wouldn't hold his feet to the fire on the COVID shots, He said, well, no, that polio stuff.
	He said, oh, look at that.
	Polio is such a success story of vaccines.
	And Rogan says, yeah, but look at what they're doing in Gaza.
	The only cases that they've got there are polio, what they've inserted there with their vaccines.
	And so that's exactly what happened with Gates.
	We had, in 2013, 19 cases worldwide.
	We've got an epidemic.
	We've got to vaccinate everybody, right?
	Since then, there has been a global explosion in polio cases, which in 2017, the WHO admitted were being caused predominantly by the vaccine itself.
	Gates also promoted the use of a dangerous DPT vaccine in Africa even after it was banned in the U.S. Think about how dangerous this must be if the FDA banned it.
	The FDA doesn't ban anything.
	They give them, as I've said before, FDA stands for free to do anything, they tell the pharmaceutical companies.
	If the FDA banned it, think about how bad that must be.
	And it was bad.
	He did it in Africa.
	So people are on to him.
	They said, look, what he's trying to do is population reduction.
	And of course, the Gates Foundation was always connected to Planned Parenthood.
	The family has always been a part of that.
	In 2009, the Gates Foundation funded tests of experimental HPV vaccines on 23,000 girls in rural India.
	At least 1,200 of them suffered severe side effects, including autoimmune and fertility disorders, and seven of them died.
	Well, hey, look, Fauci would say that's just rare.
	It's rare, right?
	Hey, you know what?
	95% of the people didn't have a problem with it.
	You only had 5% of the people get it.
	It's rare.
	Well, see, that's not the standard.
	That should never be the standard.
	Rare should never be the standard.
	The standard should be, first, do no harm.
	No harm.
	Not 1,200 people out of 23,000.
	No harm.
	The Indian government investigations charge Gates Foundation had committed pervasive ethical violations.
	They had pressured vulnerable village girls into the trial.
	They had bullied parents.
	They had forged consent forms and refused medical care to the injured girls.
	Well, you know, if you go back and you look at 2009, what was happening in Texas with Rick Perry?
	Now, he didn't forge consent forms.
	Now, he didn't have the authority to stop medical care to people, but he would try to push that in in Texas.
	Yeah, Republican Rick Perry was pushing some of the first vaccine mandates for education.
	And it turned out that one of his former staff members, wasn't chief of staff, but a high-ranking staff member, had gone to work for Gardasil.
	So then Perry decided that, hey, we should mandate that for all girls in school.
	Same type of thing.
	Despite Gates' troubled history with the HPV vaccine in India, Gavi, with funding from Gates, announced that it is investing more than $600 million to reach the goal of vaccinating 86 million girls against HPV in low- and middle-income countries, including India, by 2025.
	He just keeps going.
	When word gets out with enough people, he's going to need to have a country that he can escape to.
	And he knows it.
	Gates also funded GlaxoSmithKline's trials, GSK's trials, for its experimental malaria vaccine that killed 151 African infants and caused serious adverse effects including paralysis,
	Seizure, febrile convolutions, and 1,000 out of 5,900 children.
	About one out of every seven.
	14%.
	Is that rare?
	During the COVID pandemic, the Gates Foundation invested in MRA vaccine production and several African producers.
	You know, it's interesting.
	This is coming from Children's Health Defense.
	It's interesting that they ignore the fact that Musk did that with his CureVac.
	Gates invested in MRA vaccine production.
	So did Musk.
	But we must not speak evil of Musk.
	He's going to be a protected individual, just like Trump.
	Earlier this year, Gavi unveiled an ambitious $12 billion plan, including $9 billion in new funding to vaccinate 500 million children by 2030 with existing and new vaccines.
	Why doesn't Gates get a hobby?
	He's got enough money, you know?
	What is it about this guy that he is so incredibly evil that his life's purpose is killing and crippling children and depopulation?
	It is absolutely satanic what he does.
	Earlier this month, Business Daily Africa reported the Gates Foundation will advise Kenya on the rollout of a new digital ID system that they call Maisha Namba.
	And again, this is like what he did with India, with the Adhar system.
	The plan envisions every newborn being assigned a Maisha Namba, N-A-M-B-A, like a number, right?
	A Namba.
	You've got a Namba, which is like Mamba but with an N, which stays with them throughout their life.
	The system will be run through schools.
	Ensuring that every child born is assigned a Masha number.
	So, Gates is already facing a lawsuit.
	They've already said that he has to stand trial in the, I think it's the Netherlands?
	There's one Scandinavian country, I think it was the Netherlands.
	And now we find out that he has bought legal immunity for himself in Kenya.
	Dr.
	Mumba Siraki.
	Said on X, if they meant us well, would they need immunity?
	It looks like we're being sold to the highest bidder.
	Yeah, very much so.
	Well, we're going to take a quick break, and we're going to come back and we're going to take a look at some of the ideas and gossip of what may be happening with the Trump administration.
	We'll be right back.
	We'll be right back.
	We'll be right back.
	We'll be right back.
	Welcome back.
	We had Paleo Armory says 500,000 kids got polio in India from Gates vaccines, and the people ran them out of there.
	Yeah, and it's gotten to the point where in a lot of these countries, when they see these people showing up in the white coats with the needles, they start attacking them.
	He's got to go to Kenya.
	I wanted to thank, before we continue, I wanted to thank some of our supporters who make this program possible.
	Thank you so much for your kindness and your friendship and your support.
	On Zelle, I'm going to talk about the contributions here on Zelle and on Cash App.
	Lisa K. Susan L. Michael L. William W. Kevin M. Austin M. Mary M. George I. Jeffrey C. Manny D. David R. And David R. writes me and says, Cut the God and Jesus grift.
	Otherwise, this show, and I don't know what else he was going to say, ain't going to happen.
	You agree with me or you don't agree with me, I'm going to tell you what I think.
	Honestly, whatever happens to the show, whatever happens to us, I don't operate.
	I can easily read the room, and I know that it offends people, and I'm sorry if it offends you.
	It's not a grift.
	I'm trying to show you a gift, a gift from God, eternal life.
	And so, you know, it's not anything that I profit from.
	I know it gets people annoyed.
	I know it limits the show.
	And I don't care.
	That's all that matters.
	I just don't care.
	I know it's going to get fired if I told people about the grift that Alex was running.
	I don't care.
	You know, you've got to tell people what you honestly think.
	Ralph M., Linda M., Maurice W., Miraldo P. Thank you.
	That's very generous.
	I appreciate that.
	Susan is always a supporter, always there.
	Thank you so much.
	Kevin P., Kelly K., Julie W., Kimberly M. Thank you, all of you.
	This is on Zelle and on Cash App.
	Joseph C., George W., David F., and Chris F. Thank you, all of you, for your support.
	And I think we've got the gas gauge needs to be moved up one more notch.
	Oh, you just did?
	Okay.
	All right.
	Thank you.
	DG8, thank you for the tip.
	David, Trump rightfully threatens to unwoke the military as he plans on bringing in Rick Grinnell, the guy who has traded on the fact that he's homosexual.
	I really, you know, if you go back to the don't ask, don't tell thing, what was wrong with that?
	Why do you need to make it all about what you do in bed instead of what you do in the Army or the Navy or whatever service you're in?
	Make it about your job.
	I really don't want to know about these people's sex lives.
	I'm not asking them about it.
	Please don't tell me about it.
	Let's talk about the woke military stuff, because people are talking about that.
	Let's see if I can find this here.
	Let's start with Thomas Massey, since we were just talking about agriculture.
	There's been a lot of rumors that Thomas Massey...
	Might become Trump's Secretary of Agriculture.
	And there was rumor that was put out by Joel Salatin, who I don't know who he is.
	I say noted farmer.
	I don't know who Joel Salatin is.
	But he put out that he had been contacted by the Trump transition team to be an advisor to the Secretary of Agriculture.
	And he said, my favorite Congressman Thomas Massey from Kentucky has agreed to go in as Secretary of Agriculture, said Salatin.
	And he said there's no better person for the position.
	I would agree with that, because Thomas Massey has been at the forefront of defending these Amish farmers who are doing raw milk, who are raising cattle on their land, and being attacked by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, or in Pennsylvania, actually, I think it's coming from the state.
	Department of Agriculture.
	But Thomas Massey gets it.
	He farms.
	He understands that principle.
	And I pretty much like everything that Thomas Massey has done, except for his endorsement of Trump.
	I don't feel like that's necessary, but hey, if it gets him in the Secretary of Agriculture.
	That would be a good thing to see him in as Secretary of Agriculture.
	Now, what he said, what Massey said was, he said, I stand ready and willing to help the President with any part of his bold agenda to focus on the health and well-being of Americans, but I have received no commitments or offers from President Trump's team.
	Any discussion of the transition is premature, he responded.
	So again, he put that out.
	In other words, I'm ready to do that, but that's not what has happened.
	And so he had to comment because that was put out by Joel Salatin.
	So we'll wait and see what happens with it.
	Again, I think that would be...
	He's going to...
	He's not a guy who is boxed in by...
	The establishment that is there, he's going to say what he thinks about this stuff, and so that would be a very good thing to have him there.
	As I said earlier, RFK Jr.
	says entire departments at the FDA have to go.
	Well, you know, if you're going to follow the Constitution, the entire FDA has to go, quite frankly.
	The FDA has to go.
	The CDC has to go.
	As a matter of fact, just go all the way up to the top at HHS and shut the whole thing down, because all of that All of that is in violation of the Tenth Amendment.
	The federal government doesn't have any of those powers.
	They have not been specifically delegated to the federal government by the Constitution.
	And so they have been inferred as like a general welfare clause or something like that.
	The Tenth Amendment was put in to make sure that people did not infer these things.
	Look at the general welfare, you know, and so forth.
	No, we are not going to infer from that that they have carte blanche to do anything that they want to do.
	That's why they put in the Ninth and Tenth Amendment.
	Said, if we didn't forget anything, we still retain those rights.
	And oh, by the way, if there's anything that you think you should be able to do or you think you need to do, If it's not specifically enumerated, you don't have that power.
	That belongs in the states.
	Everything that is being done by HHS, everything that's being done by FDA, USDA, CDC, all the rest of the stuff, we have health inspectors and we have all that stuff at the state level.
	It doesn't need to be part of the federal government.
	There's nothing magic about the federal government doing it.
	That all needs to be done at the local level.
	And so the entire thing has to go.
	And unfortunately, you know, when you hear this, this is kind of the weak, it kind of tips the hand to me how weak and partial any of these moves are going to be.
	They don't even understand or support the Constitution.
	RFK Jr.
	wants to clear out entire departments in the FDA. They have to go, he said.
	Well, it's not just entire departments.
	But it's the entire thing.
	And it goes above FDA. All the way up to HHS. Everything that's there.
	In terms of...
	Was it DG8, I think, that said that?
	About the military.
	How he's going to unwoke the military.
	So there's some discussion about that.
	The fact that Trump said we're not going to have transgender troops in because it's going to, in his previous administration...
	People need to be focused on the task.
	They need to be focused on what their job is.
	He said they cannot be burdened with tremendous medical costs and disruption that having transgenders in the military would entail.
	That transgender Congress thing.
	Man, woman, I don't know who cares what it is.
	If they don't know if they're man or woman, I don't know if they're man or woman.
	I'm not going to try to jump into it, but first person has been elected of that persuasion, we should say, I guess.
	Because they have persuaded themselves.
	They...
	That they're something that they're not.
	Anyway, he has also talked about the Confederate base names.
	This is something I expect him to see because this would be a dog whistle to the base, something that he could easily do.
	They've been going around changing all of these military bases that were named after Confederate generals.
	You know, when you conquer a country, the approach of the American government has been, you know, when they defeated the South, they put military bases all throughout the South.
	But to kind of appease the people, they named them after Confederate generals.
	Okay?
	That's the history.
	It's been there for a long time.
	But then the Biden administration hates America and hates history so much they went through and decided that they would change the name.
	So Fort Bragg became Fort Liberty or whatever.
	Trump said he's going to rename that base.
	He said, changing the name from Fort Bragg, which was named after Braxton Bragg, was rewriting history.
	Nine army bases that previously honored Confederate leaders were renamed in Congress by a process that was passed in 2021 over Trump's veto.
	So it's not clear whether or not he'd be able to undo that.
	And he has opposition in Congress.
	Troops in Europe.
	Trump may look to move U.S. troops around Europe or pull them entirely.
	Trump pushed to move 12,000 troops out of Germany in 2020.
	But that proposal was rebuffed by Congress.
	How could that be?
	You know, you've got Trump as commander-in-chief of the military.
	What does Congress have to say about that?
	Nobody's paying any attention at all to the Constitution or how any of this is supposed to operate.
	And, oh, Matthew Ronson has got a, let's see, put a tip there so we would see this.
	He said, why are my comments getting grayed out?
	Karen says, it's not me, I promise.
	We don't know why your comments are getting grayed out.
	I don't know.
	Is that on Rumble?
	Do you know?
	Is that on Rumble or Rockfin?
	Where is that?
	Rumble.
	Yeah, I don't know.
	We'll try to figure out what's going on with it, but I really don't know.
	I don't have any idea why that is happening.
	And then other things, like moving Space Command headquarters.
	But as he was saying in the comments, you know, is he going to unwoke the military by putting Rick Grinnell there?
	And again, Rick Grinnell is not dressing up in ladies' clothes, you know, like Sam Brinton or whatever, or Dick Devine.
	But, you know, he makes every time he talks.
	It's not about the military.
	It's not about his job.
	It's about his sexuality.
	Shut up about it.
	We don't care.
	Don't make it about that, and it won't be a problem.
	But they're also talking about, I mean, this is the big reform.
	Are we going to have a Space Force in Colorado, or are we going to have it in Alabama?
	And the people are fighting because they want to have it in their area.
	Are we going to have a Space National Guard?
	What does that even mean?
	You got a Space Force?
	Do you need a Space National Guard?
	Air Force One.
	Are we going to change the color of Air Force One?
	These are pressing issues, folks.
	And it's so important.
	We can be so happy that we've got Donald Trump in place for all of these pressing issues.
	Before we run out of time, I want to talk a little bit about some other people's responses to this.
	Franklin Graham, for example, okay?
	This is, as I'm looking at the delusional stuff, and I've been talking about this, a lot of Christian leaders, oh, they think there's such a big difference on the vital issues.
	And yet there isn't a big difference.
	Franklin Graham compiled a long list of winners from the 2024 presidential election in America.
	Winner, winner, chicken dinner.
	This is from a guy, Franklin Graham, who pushed the Trump shot, who took the Trump shot, who got pericarditis, and still doesn't know what's going on.
	And the other thing about Franklin Graham and his organization is that, you know, they went into New York City.
	That was supposed to be the epicenter of the global pandemic that didn't exist.
	And it didn't exist in New York either.
	And just like that massive 2,500-bed hospital, Army hospital, under a tent, That Trump erected and they showed all the, you know, the massive sea of 2,500 beds.
	They never used it.
	They packed it up and took it away.
	Hospital ship for New York City, another hospital ship for LA. They never used them.
	They went away.
	Franklin Graham sets up his Samaritan purse, sets up, you know, hospital stuff there because, you know, 2,500 beds is not enough or whatever.
	Never used it.
	They went away.
	It's like, why doesn't he say something about it?
	Because he's in on it, you know?
	And again, maybe he's a true believer in all of this stuff, because he did get pericarditis and had to have open-heart surgery for that.
	So he lists all the winners.
	He says it's a win for the family.
	It's a win for the economy.
	It's a win for millions of unborn children.
	It's a win for freedom of speech.
	It's a win for religious liberty.
	It's a win for law and order, for American manufacturing and farmers and all that.
	Okay, so let's look at some of this stuff.
	A win for the family.
	Specifically, in what way?
	How does Trump help the family?
	Does he set an example of what the family should be?
	Does he talk about what the family should be?
	That's your job, Franklin.
	If you're a Christian leader, you need to be talking about that.
	It's not a win for the family.
	This is just generalized nonsense.
	It's a win for the economy.
	In what way?
	In what way?
	What is he fixed in the economy?
	What do you think he's going to fix in the economy?
	A win for freedom of speech, he says.
	No, there's absolutely no difference when it comes to Trump and Lala.
	They both want to censor their enemies.
	They both despise the principle of free speech.
	It's a win, he says, for religious liberty.
	You're talking about the only president in American history to shut down churches.
	And you want to say this is a win for religious liberty?
	He paid governors to do it.
	He shut down churches.
	Well, on the other side, we've got Chuck Baldwin, who many of you may remember, he ran the Constitution Party as a third-party candidate.
	He's a pastor, and he wrote this op-ed piece.
	He said, how I evaluate candidates.
	He wrote this before the election.
	And even though you've got all these people out there hectoring you and saying, well, you're not a Christian if you don't vote, and all this other kind, and if you don't vote for Trump.
	He said, I made a decision decades ago that if I determine that both candidates for a particular race come short of the liberty principles on which my convictions are determined, I will not vote for either candidate.
	I firmly believe that not voting for an anti-liberty candidate, who I know will be an enemy of those principles, is more honorable than voting for such a one.
	I believe every ballot should have none of the above option.
	That's right.
	That's one of the things we always did.
	And the whole idea behind the none of the above is that if none of the above wins, all the people who were above, we have to have a new election, and those people can't run again.
	They're all kicked off the ballot.
	If none of the above wins, you just nullify all these people.
	Wouldn't you like to have had that this time around?
	I know I certainly would.
	I looked at the ballot in Tennessee and the people who were on the ballot, it was definitely a none of the above.
	Besides Trump and Lala, you had a bunch of literal socialists and communists.
	I mean, literally.
	And Greens.
	Same thing.
	Anyway, he says, so, I look at a couple of different issues.
	He said, first of all, the life issue.
	The real test of whether a candidate is pro-life is not his or her rhetoric saying I am pro-life.
	Here in Montana two years ago, the Republican Party had a Republican governor, a Republican supermajority in the legislature, and it was the GOP leadership in the state, most notably the Republican Speaker of the House, that would not even allow a personhood amendment.
	Isn't that such an amazing thing?
	You know, the argument is not whether or not a baby is human.
	The argument is whether or not the baby is a person.
	That was the same argument that was used to enslave black people.
	Well, they're not a person.
	They're not fully a person, that type of thing.
	And it is the same argument that will be used to kill people, maybe to kill you, when you are infirm or you have a stroke.
	Well, their quality of life's not really good.
	They don't really know what's going on.
	They're not a person any longer.
	And so he says on this issue, he said, Harris is obviously radically pro-abortion, but Trump has no real convictions about it either.
	He's not a zealot like she is, but he doesn't advocate for life.
	As a matter of fact, he's run from it.
	You know, that's why I said, give the glory for what happened with the overturning of Roe v.
	Wade.
	Give the glory to God.
	See it as answered prayer.
	Don't see it as an answer from Trump.
	He didn't want it.
	He was surprised by it.
	He ran from it.
	He's been running from it ever since.
	On the Second Amendment, he says, well, you know, Trump claims to be pro-Second Amendment.
	She wants to eviscerate it.
	But, you know, he points out the take the gun and do the due process later.
	He doesn't mention the executive water gun control, but that's there as well.
	Number three, the First Amendment, freedom of speech.
	He said here they're both two peas in a pod.
	They want to censor their enemies.
	On the Fourth Amendment, the Surveillance Society, domestic spying, the police state.
	Here again, virtually no distance between the elephants and the donkeys.
	On medical mandates, he said, once more I find no significant difference between Harris and Trump on the issue.
	It was Trump who first shackled the American people with an executive order.
	The catalyst for the medical mandates for the lockdowns, the rest of the stuff.
	He prepared it.
	He paid people for it.
	On the warfare state, he said the wars against Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Somalia, Ukraine, Iran, ad nauseum, he said here again.
	Very little difference.
	He says, as a matter of fact, remember, Trump murdered the Iranian general Soleimani, who was the political equivalent of America's vice president.
	Remember also that it was General Soleimani who was one of the three Arab leaders who defeated al-Qaeda and ISIS. This is a good point that I've not talked about.
	The U.S. was never at war with al-Qaeda and ISIS. The U.S. created al-Qaeda and ISIS. And we gave them weapons as well.
	As an excuse to fight Israel's wars in the Middle East.
	And so maybe that's why they killed him.
	Because he defeated our surrogates there.
	In the U.S. Congress, there is only one party.
	The War Party.
	And so then he looks at energy, he looks at illegal immigration on the woke agenda.
	He finds very little difference between them.
	And that is the reality that we see as we look ahead for this.
	Again, fundamentally, nothing has changed.
	As he said, you know, we're going to have war for Israel.
	We're going to have war with Iran.
	I think that is going to happen.
	They are absolutely, either of them were owned by Israel.
	I think Trump perhaps will pull away from Ukraine.
	But again, I think that it will be...
	We'll have a war with Iran, which Lindsey Graham and the War Hawks have always wanted.
	We may perhaps continue to move towards a war with China, which they have been plotting for quite some time and could easily be kicked off, beginning with a trade war and with sanctions.
	Amos Poole, thank you very much.
	Thank you so much.
	He said congratulations on the new baby.
	Thank you.
	that.
	The Common Man.
	The Common Man.
	They created common core to dumb down our children.
	They created common past to track and control us.
	Their commons project to make sure the commoners own nothing.
	And the communist future.
	They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary.
	But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God.
	That is what we have in common.
	That is what they want to take away.
	Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation.
	They desire to know everything about us while they hide everything from us.
	It's time to turn that around and expose what they want to hide.
