	In a world of deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.
	It's the David Knight Show.
	As the clock strikes 13, it's Monday, the 18th of August, year of our Lord 2025.
	I'm here today in studio with Travis, and we're going to have a new format today.
	We're also going to take a look at many things that are being presented to us as new, but perhaps not new.
	We're going to take a look first at the summit between Trump and Putin.
	What can we glean from the gossip that is coming out of the mainstream media?
	And of course, there's many issues in terms of mainstream news.
	We're seeing effects of illegal immigration and people who are given commercial driver's licenses, who can't read or speak English with tragic results.
	And in the UK, multiple reports about how they're getting closer and closer to civil war.
	This is what is being fostered.
	We'll be right back.
	Stay with us.
	Well, it's great to be back, and I want to thank all of you before we begin.
	I want to thank you for your prayers.
	I want to thank God for what he has done.
	It was a difficult and depressing time, actually, for me.
	And all the letters of encouragement were a big help, even though I didn't have the ability to really respond at that point in time.
	It took me a while before I could type again.
	I can now type.
	Now I'm really snowed with things.
	So just let me thank all of you collectively rather than individually.
	So we had, over the weekend, Travis, we had a summit in Alaska, and we're going to try to sum it up.
	And it's difficult to do that because at the center of this, you have politics and international competition.
	Geopolitics always turns into ego politics.
	And the fog of war always makes it very difficult to find out what is really happening.
	And so right now we have a couple of people like Putin and Trump meeting together.
	It's all about egos and political parties.
	And I don't think we can trust a thing that is coming out of it.
	But we'll talk about a few of the things that are being pushed out.
	Of course, there's going to be another meeting today.
	You're going to have Zelensky and his backers in the EU are going to come to try to save him from another confrontation like he had in the Oval Office.
	That was one of the best things I saw that Trump did.
	You're a small man.
	Just get out of here.
	Quit whining.
	He has been.
	I would love to see Lindsey Graham in a situation like that.
	These perpetual warmongers who care nothing about the lives of the people that they are sacrificing are so full of themselves.
	And it is really kind of good every once in a while to see one of them get his comeuppance.
	But of course, he's going to have a large entourage of people from the EU supporting him because this is their war and they're trying to drag us into it, trying to drag us into a global war.
	So I hope whatever happens and whatever egos are massaged or have to be massaged, I hope that it ends up in peace.
	If the price we pay for peace is massaging the politicians' ego, so be it.
	So it's kind of interesting when you look back and forth at all the gossip of this stuff.
	NPR put out an article which is really comical.
	And it was featured by Drudge.
	And they were just about to faint that some important documents had been printed out on the hotel printer and left for other people to discover.
	And they did discover it.
	And they contacted MPR, National Propaganda Radio.
	And when I saw the headlines, it's like, ooh, I wonder what they got.
	You know, what kind of discussions did they get from this?
	And when you go to the article, you can actually see the documents that they got.
	It's the menu for what they're going to have for lunch.
	Top secret stuff.
	Yeah, I mean, for years, Travis, we had NPR excusing Hillary Clinton and her email server that was exposing all of these communications between her and foreign leaders that are born above top secret.
	And of course, the Russia Gate thing was a red herring to distract people away from the substance of it.
	But here we are, they freak out over a lunch menu when they swallow the camel of her secure documents whole.
	It's pretty ridiculous.
	What we did learn is that it's actually a very nice lunch.
	And they had creme boulet for dessert.
	Karen was so envious.
	She had that at a cruise, and she loves creme boulet now.
	That's her favorite thing.
	And then you had Hillary Clinton, who was, oh, the White House mocked all this.
	So this so-called investigative journalism.
	That's why nobody trusts NPR and why we're shutting them down.
	Yeah, we probably should preserve them as exhibit A of how media can go wrong, how government media especially can go wrong.
	I don't know.
	It was.
	See, if they were smart, what they would have said is we've got some secret documents here and we want our funding back.
	Exactly.
	Yeah, you guys are.
	You can release the funding or we release your menu right now.
	Yeah.
	Surf and turf, although they gave it fancier names than that.
	It's flex mignon.
	So the yeah, the creme boulet, they haven't creme.
	And then Hillary Clinton was complimentary to President Trump.
	Imagine that.
	Perhaps this had something to do with it, the fact that they have just discovered documents showing that they had shut down 19 different Clinton Foundation investigations during the Biden administration.
	You know, I had Travis Charles Ortell on a couple of different times, and he is investigated the Clintons from a financial standpoint.
	And he was saying during the first Trump administration, why don't they just launch an investigation of her?
	Because she hasn't filed the basic paperwork for these things.
	She's not in compliance with what these charitable foundations have to do.
	And she had exposure all over that.
	Well, it turns out that perhaps there were some that were being done before the election.
	This all happened during the 2016 election cycle.
	So this is actually before Charles Ortell and I were talking.
	And they had not complied with any of the reporting functions.
	They had not complied with the proper construction of their foundation.
	And of course, we all know that the foundation was heavily involved in some very dodgy child trafficking down in Haiti after the natural disaster there.
	But now they have found newly declassified information showing that this was all shut down by Sally Yates, who was the deputy AG during the Biden administration.
	What a surprise.
	Isn't it?
	This is, of course, the Clinton Foundation gets a pass.
	Clinton herself gets a pass on violating national security.
	The FBI's own internal memo proves that multiple FBI field offices were investigating Clinton for pay to play and for bribery revelations that were contained in Peter Schweitzer's book, Clinton Cash.
	So he takes a victory lap there saying, I told you so.
	And he did.
	And of course, many of us were talking about that as well.
	A lot of it based on his investigation, but also Charles Ottell was very deep in all this stuff as well.
	So anyway, when you look at the way that they strained at Nats with Trump and swallowed the Clinton camels hole, it's amazing.
	And they point this out, talking about Trump paying off a porn star.
	Of course, that was a defining moment for his character, wasn't it?
	As if he needed another one.
	I mean, the First Wives Club and all the rest of this stuff and the way he ditched his wives, hanging around with Jeffrey Epstein, those are also defining characteristics.
	It's kind of interesting to see how all this Jeffrey Epstein stuff is blown up when the Trump cult was so eager to explain away all the porn star pavements and other things like that.
	It really brings into question just how can they not see him for who he really is.
	Yeah.
	Do you think he's not the type of guy that would hang out with Jeffrey Epstein?
	Do you really think that?
	What makes you what in his life points to that?
	Explain it to me.
	Yeah, they look at this as if this Epstein connection is some kind of huge outlier.
	It's like, no, it is right in line with his entire life.
	Everything that he's doing.
	It fits his pattern of behavior.
	Yeah, it absolutely does.
	They also pointed out that as many as 40 state Democrat parties were taking money and channeling it to Clinton, which is something of an election violation as well.
	So they are teeing up for a lot of lawfare.
	And I think it's justified.
	As I said before, certainly if you wanted to come after the Democrats for corruption, it is a target-rich environment.
	I'm just concerned that it not be seen as personal revenge for Trump.
	But that's precisely what he wants it to be seen as.
	Trump doesn't want people to fear the Constitution.
	He wants people to fear him.
	And that's the problem because what that's going to do is foster an environment where the winner seeks to lock up the loser like some third world country.
	That's what we become-a third world corrupt dictatorship with nuclear weapons, isn't it?
	Yeah, well, it also speaks to the fact if he gives justice, he's just doing his job.
	But if it's seen as this petty revenge, people be like, oh, it's only because it's Trump.
	No one else is going to do this.
	It gets to feed his ego more.
	That's right.
	And it's also to say, you know, you better back off of us once we're out of power, back off of my family, that type of thing.
	So what happened in the summit, we don't really know.
	There are some reports that, of course, they're not going to talk about a ceasefire.
	It's going to be peace or nothing.
	So it's going to be war and peace, no ceasefire in between.
	And what Putin is proposing publicly that's been leaked out is he says, you let us have control of the Donbass region, and we will freeze the front lines in southern Kherson and Zaporizhia.
	And there will be no more, there's no domino theory, is what he's trying to put out.
	Essentially, NATO has used Ukraine as a cat's paw in a passive-aggressive way, continually moving towards Russia.
	And that's a large part of what the Democrat coup in Ukraine was all about.
	And when all this Russia gate stuff was happening, we talked a great deal about the DNC connections in Ukraine, Chalupa, and many others, and how heavily the DNC was involved in the inner circles around the people who were doing the coup.
	And this is something that was planned for quite some time.
	I thought it was always interesting, and I've mentioned it many, many times.
	You've probably heard it before, that Sergei Arestovich in 2019, Zelensky was elected on a campaign of we're going to have peace.
	They started a civil war.
	They did not want to let the eastern areas of Ukraine remain with Russia, which was the preference of the people there.
	They wanted to break away.
	They wanted to secede, and they had a right to do that, a human right to do that.
	Instead, what they decided to do was to shell the civilian populations there and have a war that at that point in time in 2019 had already been going on for five years.
	So there was Ukrainian TV, and I played the clip many times.
	I won't play it again today.
	I'll just sum it up real quickly.
	The reporter asked Arestovich, who was the Zelensky administration representative, what the chances were for peace.
	Because remember, they had been engaged in a civil war that was initiated by Kiev for five years.
	And he said, oh, it's not going to happen.
	He said, instead, in three years, and this is 2019, he said, in three years, we're going to be at war with Russia.
	She said, that's horrible.
	And he says, yeah, we will be havoc.
	We'll be devastated.
	But the good news is we'll get into NATO.
	So this stuff was all planned from the very beginning.
	They even had the timing down as to what it was going to happen.
	Some of you may die, but that's a sacrifice I'm willing to make.
	Exactly.
	They don't care a whit about the Ukrainians.
	And at the very beginning of this, you had analysts in neutral India saying, military analysts saying they're going to fight them to the last Ukrainian, but they have no chance of winning.
	And now what we're seeing in the mainstream media is they say, well, Trump is setting up Zelensky to fail.
	The Ukrainian people were set up to die.
	We're seeing the world's first self-inflicted genocide.
	Yeah, yeah.
	Well, not the first.
	We've had many politicians who have thrown their people under the bus in the past.
	But the thing that I thought was interesting about this was that Putin said, well, even, you know, we don't want them in NATO, but we'll even give you kind of Article 5 protections, which Article 5 of the NATO Compact or whatever the thing is, says that if one of us is attacked, all of us are.
	It's like three musketeers, all for one and one for all.
	Anyway, he said, we will allow that to happen.
	But then the question becomes, because some of the news media reports indicate that there may be American troops involved to protect that.
	We hope that we don't get stuck in some kind of a quagmire like that.
	But nevertheless, if Putin puts that on the table, I've said all along that all of this nonsense about this being a domino theory, especially in the British press.
	Oh, this is it.
	You know, this is just like Hitler.
	He's going to next, he's going to come for France.
	You know, all the rest of this nonsense.
	I think that's absolute nonsense on the story.
	Also, at this point, France might be so lucky.
	Yeah, would they actually be worse off than they are with Macron?
	Who knows?
	These dictators are starting to look more and more alike, aren't they?
	So this is being portrayed by the mainstream media as a total cave-in and betrayal by Trump.
	But the question is, who's being betrayed?
	Is NATO and their geopolitical goals being betrayed?
	Are the people of Ukraine being betrayed?
	They were the ones who were set up to fail, to be killed, to be sacrificed on the geopolitical altar or the ego-political altar.
	Putin has demanded that Ukraine withdraw from the Dnetsk and Buhansk regions as a condition for ending the war, but told Trump that he could freeze the rest of the front line if his core demands were met.
	Now, Zelensky doesn't want to have any of this.
	He and the Europeans are saying, we're not going to trade land for peace type of thing.
	No.
	They want the land just as much as anybody else.
	The question is, what's in the best interest of the people that they were there to govern?
	Nobody looks at that kind of calculation, do they, Travis?
	I mean, it isn't, you know, you're there as a leader.
	If you are a legitimate leader, you are looking after the welfare of your own people.
	I think by that definition, we don't have any legitimate leaders in the West.
	Nowhere, U.S. included, do we have people like that?
	Anyway, there's going to be a meeting today in D.C. Zelensky and all the usual suspects from the EU are going to be showing up as well.
	And so the big question mark that we don't really have any details over are exactly how does this Article 5 protection that is going to be extended to a non-NATO country, how does that exactly work?
	But by floating that out there, what he's essentially saying is that we'll guarantee that there's not going to be an attack.
	And he promises that they're going to pass a law that will make invading Ukraine illegal.
	I'm sure that will stop him or any other.
	That was the problem before, right?
	We just didn't have a law in place that prevents Ukrainian invasions.
	If only we had a law that, let's say, protected free speech in the United States of the UK, wouldn't that be wonderful?
	We all know nobody ever violates the law.
	Ukraine is now an invasion-free zone.
	Yeah, and then who enforces that, right?
	So they said, Witkoff is saying Russia has agreed to enact a law that would not go after any other European countries and violate their sovereignty.
	The Russians agreed on enshrining legislatively language that would prevent them from, or that they would attest to not attempting to take any more land from Ukraine after a peace deal, where they would attest to not violating any European borders.
	I don't think it was ever really about that.
	If you go back and look at history, we don't even know where these places are on the map, let alone the history of it.
	But I thought it was interesting.
	I mentioned at the very beginning of this, you had the British defense minister say, we beat the Russians in Crimea once before, and we can beat them again.
	It's like, why were the Russians in Crimea when you fought them in the 1800s?
	It's because Crimea and the Ukraine were a part of Russia as long as America has been a country.
	And it's only a recent invention that Ukraine got its independence from Russia after the breakup of the Soviet Union.
	And a lot of hard feelings there because of things like the Holotom War.
	It's not to say the Russians treated them well, but they did have them as part of their territory going back to Catherine the Great.
	And so, plus, it's a very important port that is there, but the people are tied linguistically, culturally, religiously to Russia, many of them, regardless of how they were treated.
	So, a European coalition is looking to set up a force to police any future peace in Ukraine.
	But the question is, when NATO does anything, is it really going to be the United States that is doing it?
	We'll see how that works out.
	There's no details about how it's going to work out.
	And, of course, most of this stuff is just speculation at this point.
	And Rubio is trying to be poetic.
	He says, you know, we're not quite there yet.
	We're on the precipice of a peace.
	We're not on the edge of it.
	Maybe he should go back and get a dictionary.
	But I do think progress was made towards one.
	So he's trying to be Churchillian, I guess.
	You know, this is not the end, but it is the beginning of the end or whatever, I guess.
	Marco Rubio is not even half the man Winston Churchill was.
	And I mean that literally, basically.
	Both vertically and horizontally.
	My comment before all this was, if Zelensky is not there, what can Trump and Putin really do?
	If Zelensky says no, what does it matter?
	Well, I saw a headline this morning that a Russian tank just went because war is still ongoing.
	Russian tank just went into battle flying an American flag.
	So I guess we could send weapons to Russia instead of to Ukraine.
	Maybe that's the move.
	Maybe we fund both sides.
	That way, whoever.
	That's what we usually do, right?
	We were slipping on our game here.
	Yeah, we could go back to the way we usually do it, funding both sides.
	No, it could stop tomorrow if he would stop giving weapons to Zelensky.
	I mean, the EU can't really keep this stuff up.
	They're moving now from, after collapsing their economies with the Green New Deal, and they don't really have a manufacturing base.
	Now they're going to go into massive Keynesian debt in order to try to create a military state, Germany especially.
	So as I said before, we've got the usual suspects that are going to be showing up today.
	We're going to have Macron is going to be there.
	You're going to have Fred Mertz.
	Taking a brief break from suing Candace Owens, I see.
	You're going to have Fred Mertz in Germany.
	And we're going to have maybe even Ricky and Lucy will show up.
	I don't know.
	But they're all going to show up as moral support for Zielensky.
	And it'll be interesting to see if Trump has the backbone to stand up to all these people, I think.
	It's still an open question.
	So many people are going.
	You have Ursula fond of lying will be there.
	Kier Starmer will be there.
	And then in addition to that, you're going to have Mark Rutte, the guy who was the prime minister of the Netherlands, but he tried to destroy all the farms in the Netherlands, and they organized against him and kicked him out of being prime minister.
	So then NATO hired him.
	That should tell you where NATO is in terms of concern for their own people.
	It's a revolving door of these people.
	They get thrown out one place and they just pop right back up somewhere else.
	That's right.
	So it'll be kind of interesting to see what happens.
	And we should know a little bit more today after this meeting in Washington.
	There may be some good sound bites that have come out of it.
	European leaders also fear a repeat of Zelensky's last visit to the White House, which was a total disaster for their side.
	So they're trying to prevent that from happening again.
	And after that, if you remember, there was a temporary cutoff of American aid for the war effort.
	Trump then started it back up again.
	That's why I say the guy is, he may go complete taco on us with this always chickening out.
	Kir and other allies stand ready to support the next stage to end the war.
	The reality is, is that they know what Zelensky is.
	They're just haggling over the price.
	The man is a prostitute willing to kill his own people.
	And one of the things that they could do is pay him to go away and live on the French area in one of the many chateaus that he's got.
	All right.
	How many dresses do we need to buy your wife before you'll leave Ukraine alone, Zelensky?
	Yeah.
	So von der Leyen, fond of lying, Ursula said, with regard to any territorial questions in Ukraine, our position is clear.
	International borders cannot be changed by force.
	They can only be kept by force.
	When the people want to exercise their human right to self-determination and political independence, you can bomb the people To rubble as Ukraine did for five years.
	I'm just curious if she's ever looked at history before, because borders have changed quite a bit throughout history, and it's almost always been by force or because of force.
	That's right.
	That's right.
	So they're talking about maintaining these borders.
	And of course, Kiev wanted to maintain their border by force against the people who wanted to be independent of them.
	So I don't know.
	How about maintaining borders by peace when you have no chance of winning?
	That's really the question that's before them at this point.
	So again, as I said at the very beginning, you see these articles.
	This is coming out of the Express in the UK.
	It's a tabloid paper there.
	And they are evidently heavily tied to the government there in terms of pushing out propaganda as they did through the pandemic.
	Now they're doing it for war.
	So the Express headline is, Trump is setting Zelensky up to fail.
	Yeah.
	Well, that is old news, actually.
	Zelensky set the Ukrainians up.
	Zelensky would never want to be president that gives a fifth of his country to a bully, said a former British Army officer, part of their military industrial complex.
	But he would sacrifice the lives of all of his people in a lost cause brought about by refusing self-governance and secession, says David Knight.
	That really is the spirit of 1776.
	Trump knows there's zero chance of a workable peace deal being agreed when Zelensky visits the White House on Monday.
	Former Defense Committee Chairman Tobias Elwood has warned.
	And the Ukrainian president is being set up to fail by his U.S. counterpart, who was himself manipulated by Putin during their high-profile summit on Friday, said the ex-British Army officer.
	He's probably making a lot of money at a defense contractor right now.
	But he's probably somebody who's got a lot of blood on his own hands.
	Didn't Putin pull off a fast one?
	He got the red carpet treatment, a handshake with the American president.
	Oh, that's big stuff, isn't it?
	I'm sure he'll never wash that hand again.
	This is the kind of stuff these guys are willing to, I would say, willing to die for, but no, they're willing to kill you for so they can get these kind of honors.
	But he's really looking at this.
	This is a bureaucrat's dream that he gets a red carpet treatment and gets to shake the hand of the president.
	Then somehow Putin walked away without even agreeing to a ceasefire, let alone a deal.
	He said, well, the offer on the table that Trump is putting together, there's no chance Zelensky can agree to it because it is appeasement, says this warmonger.
	So we have, as I said before, the ego politics where they care nothing about anybody, just about their perceived place in history.
	I don't think history is going to be kind to any of these people, however.
	Yeah, they haven't been doing not a good job, to put it mildly.
	Zelensky has been a monster willing to sacrifice every last Ukrainian simply to enrich himself.
	That's right.
	It's one of the most blatant pieces of corruption regarding war I've seen in my lifetime.
	Yeah.
	And everybody knew that Ukraine was incredibly corrupt.
	I mean, even Bill Gates said it was the most corrupt country on earth, but he's not the only one.
	It's politically ranked.
	People would rank the most corrupt countries on the planet.
	Ukraine would always be right near the top.
	That's right.
	The question is, how much of that corruption is filtering back to our own congressmen who are cutting the checks to Ukraine?
	That's always the issue when you look at it.
	Well, when we come back, we're going to take a look at some general news, things that are happening in terms of the Second Amendment.
	Interesting turn about the Second Amendment in D.C. now that Trump has taken it over.
	We're also going to talk about the death of the small farm and many other things.
	We're going to talk about the – We've got lots of comments before we go anywhere, though.
	Oh, yeah, let's take a look at that.
	Can you read the comments?
	No, I've got the comments over here.
	I think it's a little bit too far away for you to read.
	We're going to have to work on some of these things here in the new studio.
	By the way, I hope you all like the new studio.
	I do.
	And I really want to thank Lance and Karen for the hard work that they did over the weekend.
	Travis was involved in it as well.
	It was majority Lance and mom, though.
	Lance did so much work.
	Yeah, and physical work as well as organizing it.
	And we're really happy with what they've done here.
	This is a room that we're in that is very long and narrow.
	And now it feels so much larger because I'm oriented in a position so that I can see the length of the room when I look over towards Lance and the booth over there.
	And so it feels much more spacious here.
	It's a very great design.
	Thank you so much for doing that.
	And for getting all the electronics connected and everything so we can get two people in here.
	Okay, let's see.
	We got New World Order is Bad 1984.
	Thank you very much for the tip.
	He writes, good to see you, David.
	I'm so happy you're back.
	Been waiting to tell you about how I used to be a Trump sucker proxy up until 2024.
	Now I've repurposed my Trump sign says targets of the range.
	Well, good for you.
	Good for you.
	Yeah, we need to hold people accountable for what they do.
	And I think that once you see it, you never go back.
	And that's the key thing.
	DG8, thank you for the tip.
	It says, great to see you back, David.
	Blotin gifted 10 subscriptions to the David Knight Show.
	Thank you very much.
	I guess that's on kick.
	Yes, thank you.
	Yes.
	And North American House Epo, good to see you there.
	We're going to talk about some transportation issues down in Florida where you are.
	He says, I was pleasantly surprised to hear William McKinley come up during the discussion last week.
	It reminded me of why Buffalo is one of my favorite cities.
	It gave America two presidents and took one back.
	It also gave us some spicy wings as well, didn't it?
	That's my favorite thing about Buffalo.
	That's right.
	Talking about political wings, we have buffalo wings.
	Knights of the storm, thank you very much.
	I appreciate that.
	Good to see you back.
	Please pray for our friend Mel, who lost her son yesterday.
	I'm so sorry.
	He was only in his 20s.
	It was very sudden.
	Well, I'm sorry to hear that.
	You know, I got up this morning and looked to see if there was any news updates about the war in Ukraine or anything like that.
	And I saw a very touching story on Drudge Report that was a mainstream article about a guy who lived in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, pretty much close to where we used to live.
	And he was somebody who had been, who had worked in hospice.
	They said usually people can only handle hospice for about five years.
	This guy had done it for 33.
	And he was a former hardcore atheist.
	You know, grab you by the lapels and tell you there is no God.
	Now he's no longer that.
	Unfortunately, he doesn't know the Lord Jesus Christ, but he has come into kind of this spiritual thing.
	But he had some amazing tales about people at the end of their lives.
	And it truly is amazing what we see.
	And we don't hear as much of that as we used to because of all the pharmaceuticals that they give people at the end of their life.
	I just have to say that there's every reason to be filled with hope.
	And so I certainly hope that Mel has that hope.
	I hope that her family knows about her child.
	I hope that they trusted in the Lord Jesus Christ.
	That is, you know, there's an interesting book, by the way.
	You know, you see these near-death experiences, and they appear to be all over the place because a lot of them are interpreted by the people who have them.
	And yet, there is a guy who has a church in Austin.
	He's a large church.
	He used to be an engineer.
	And he started getting interested in these near-death experiences.
	And he wrote a fairly long book that I've read.
	And he said he thought it was a very good evangelical tool that God has handed us at this point in time.
	Because he said, if you look at these accounts, if you just get the people to tell you what happened and not put the interpretation that would come from their religion or their culture, he goes, it fits perfectly with what the Bible says.
	It doesn't contradict it.
	And so it's a very interesting book, something to think about, because that is a day that is coming for all of us.
	Brandon Bennett, thank you very much.
	He says, welcome back, Night Commander.
	Well, thank you.
	And DG8 says, David, I voted for Trump in 2016.
	It was like giving a middle finger to Lion Ted, Lil Marco, Barr, Hannity, Levin, Shapiro, and Lindsey Graham.
	Now that's who MAGA is.
	He was the snake that he claimed.
	Yeah, that's right.
	You know, when you look at all that, all these people who are such hardcore MAGA, Trump has now become the establishment GOP.
	And, you know, it was, again, it was an anti-establishment move.
	And when I looked at it, I thought, well, you know, he is so counter-cultural.
	Maybe he'll shake things up and it'll be good.
	And it is good to shake things up.
	But he's done it in a very divisive way.
	I think he is the accelerationist at the end of this fourth turning that they really want to have in there.
	And we're going to talk about that more when we come back.
	One of the main and possibly only reason they dislike him is he dared to even pay lip service to the common American people.
	Yeah, that's right.
	Just even paying lip service to the American people, I think, is a threat to them.
	That's part of the reason they don't like him.
	Not that he accomplishes anything, but just reminding them that, hey, you're a voting bloc that deserves to be served and catered to.
	Well, he said the right things about a lot of different issues.
	The problem is he did the wrong things.
	I mean, who would have thought when he presents himself as a populist for the American people that he'd be capable of doing things that he did in 2020?
	You know, when look at the first three or four years of Trump, it's like, okay, we've got this tax cut.
	It's very disappointing.
	It's like a typical Republican tax cut for the big guys and so forth.
	And hopefully some stuff will trickle down.
	But, you know, you can try to look at it in this positive light.
	And a lot of other things that were not done in terms of sealing the border and things like that.
	But that's kind of par for the course in politics.
	And I learned a long time ago not to expect too much from him.
	But when he did what he did in 2020, there's no way that can be explained or forgiven.
	That was the end of the line.
	Locking us down, a kind of medical martial law that showed that he was a part of not just the deep state in Washington, but a part of the global establishment and set himself up as a leader of all that, developing the vaccine, all the rest of this.
	This had been planned and practiced, as I've said, many, many, many times since 9-11.
	So he showed his true colors with the so-called pandemic.
	Karen Carpenter, 27, thank you so much.
	Wonderful to see you, David and Travis.
	Beautiful new studio, a day to remember.
	What a great demonstration of teamwork the Knight family is.
	Well, thank you so much.
	I appreciate that.
	Guard Goldsmith, good to see you, Guard.
	Liberty Conspiracy.
	David and Travis, he says, thank you for the tip.
	He says, David and Travis have created something great.
	What a combination.
	Beautiful set, great insights.
	Congratulations to all.
	Well, I'd say it's, as I said before, it was Karen's design and it was Lance's implementation that made all this stuff happen.
	So I really give the credit to them for the studio.
	And I really do like what they've done here.
	Yeah, they did a great job.
	Yeah.
	Again, it was almost all them, Mom and Lance.
	So pass your thanks along to them.
	Yes, yes.
	Star Barkley, what Dave just said is why Khrushchev gifted Crimea to Ukraine.
	The shared culture, the language, 300 years of unity, but not anymore.
	Yeah.
	DG8, thank you for the tip.
	He says, so the globalist political parasites will be gathering in D.C. This is all a staged show.
	They don't even respect us enough to tell us the truth.
	I agree.
	So we don't know at this point what they're going to do.
	There'll probably be some entertainment videos that will be released about the back and forth between them.
	But again, you know, what their real plans are, we won't know.
	We'll have to watch it unfold.
	Dougalike, thank you very much for the tip.
	He says, so glad to see you back in action, David.

	Your election was rigged because you have mail-in voting.
	He said mail-in voting every election.
	He said, no country has mail-in voting.
	It's impossible to have mail-in voting and have honest elections.
	Who did the mail-in voting, Donald?
	He said, you won't be able to do that so much.
	You started that.
	That's how he got it.
	He said, and if you would have won, we wouldn't have had a war.
	You'd have all these millions of people alive now instead of dead.
	And he said, and you lost it because of mail-in voting.
	It was a rigged election.
	But mail-in voting, Sean, the politicians, I think I'm going to make it a big, I know the answer is that Jimmy Carter, years ago, along with Scoop Jackson and some others, they've had a committee, respected people, good committee, Jimmy Carter, good guy.
	You know, he's a good man.
	And the conclusion was you can't have mail-in voting.
	We have mail-in voting.
	It's so dishonest.
	They send stuff.
	Some people get seven ballots.
	Look at California with that horrible governor they have.
	He's one of the worst governors in history.
	He's incompetent.
	There's an older person like Jimmy Carter.
	They send out like 38 million ballots.
	Some people get five, six, seven.
	But Vladimir Putin, smart guy, said you can't have an honest election with mail-in voting.
	And he said, there's not a country in the world that uses it now.
	Oh, I would love to see election reform.
	We have to do it.
	I don't know why we're not doing it.
	I don't know why you did it.
	You're the one who's responsible for that.
	But not strongly enough.
	I mean, they've got to want us strong because it can't be honest.
	It goes through a postman.
	It goes through somebody else, somebody else.
	You know, when you go to a really well-run voting city, you go in, you have to hand a card, a picture, or this, or that.
	You don't have everything perfect.
	You get sent back, go get it.
	It's really, it's very hard to do something fraudulent with a vote.
	Paper ballot.
	Mail-in voting, they give you boxes of stuff.
	You have no idea where they came from.
	This mail-in voting, you can't have a great democracy, republic.
	You can't have it.
	Well, maybe that's why we're going to end up with a community as mayor in New York.
	I don't know.
	He probably is very happy with mail-in value.
	But you can't have a great democracy with mail-in voting.
	I have no doubt that Putin told him that.
	I have no doubt that Putin knows exactly what Trump wants to hear and flattered him to the nth degree.
	Who knew that this was going to be a problem?
	Yeah?
	Well, you know, in 2016, I talked a great deal about the issues that we knew at that time with electronic voting.
	And it wasn't something that just happened in 2016.
	It had been around for a long time.
	I'd shown videos of people coming in from a computer science class.
	A guy comes in with a couple of students, and they take over and rig a voting machine very quickly and easily to give them whatever results that they wanted.
	We also had local questions about what was happening in Texas.
	And we had a person who was running for office and was trying to get the records and found out that the State Board of Elections there in Texas, run by a guy who used to work for the Rose Law Firm.
	Does that sound familiar?
	That's where Clinton was and hung out.
	It was brought in by Republican Rick Perry in order to run the elections there.
	And this is before he even started taking the loose negotiates.
	I don't know what the guy was thinking.
	Anyway, we know he's just part of the system.
	But yeah, I went to talk to that guy, and he agreed to the interview we were down in the foyer there.
	And as he starts to come down the steps, he sees me and he goes, oh, not doing that.
	And he goes back up.
	But anyway, I said the problem was going to be electronic voting because this guy had, since he became the head of the Board of Elections, he had told everyone, the counties, to ignore the Texas Constitution that says that they have to keep a record of all these electronic votes.
	He said, destroy all that after the election.
	And that's why this person was running for local office was part of our lawsuit.
	She couldn't get discovery because everything had been wiped clean, memory hold.
	So I said in 2016, I said the next election in 2020 is going to be a hacking contest between the Democrats and Republicans because they're both into this.
	They both rig it.
	I was wrong.
	And I had to say in 2020, I was wrong.
	I said, no, now it's going to be this mail-in stuff.
	And everybody knew that.
	Even Bill Barr said it.
	Remember that?
	He even said this is going to be completely rigged.
	And it was Trump who did it with this phony pandemic.
	And now he claims that it was done to him.
	Such a helpless little victim, isn't he?
	He locks down the entire country, destroys your business.
	Trump most affected.
	This is, no, how could this happen?
	You did it, sir.
	You're the one that allowed it to happen.
	And I believe, I said it at the time, and I still believe it.
	I think he's part of the globalist elite.
	I think that he, this is a deliberate tag team to turn this over to Biden so that he could escalate it with mandates and other things like that, and they could distance themselves from the vaccine mandates that, you know, the vacc that Trump is still so proud of, his mRNA vaccination.
	I think it was a globalist tag team thing.
	This is professional wrestling taken to a professional level.
	It really is.
	And I think that he is there as the accelerationist.
	So with all that as a background, I don't really know what's going to happen with the Ukraine war.
	I hope the killing stops, is all I'll say.
	But I don't trust any of these people.
	Now he claims he was the victim, even though he was the president.
	And I think completely convinced.
	If only there was somebody with enough power to have done something.
	If only there was somebody that wielded executive authority that could have changed things.
	And then we look at another difference between Trump version 1 and Trump version 2.
	It's like two different people, right?
	He's reinvented himself.
	So now he's taking over D.C., threatening to take over other cities as well, and kind of a boil-the-frogs martial law.
	And as part of what he's done in D.C., you have the MAGA media and the MAGA Trump sucker proxy media is out there cheering what he's done because now he's making it easier for people to get concealed carry in D.C. D.C. has fought anybody being able to protect themselves.
	They fought that tooth and nail for the longest period of time.
	If you remember the Heller decision at the Supreme Court, that was a police officer, Heller, who was prevented from carrying when he was off duty.
	And he sued and won.
	The Supreme Court said, no, this is an individual right.
	Well, of course it's an individual right.
	Everything, you know, the last couple of amendments, 9th and 10th Amendment, is talking about the fact that the government, the federal government, should not interpret various passages in an expansive way as they have done with the welfare clause and supremacy clause and other things like that.
	You don't have any power unless it's explicitly given to you.
	But all the rest of the amendments, the other eight, are all about individual liberties.
	And so, of course, the Second Amendment is about that.
	But now he is, this is a headline from the Gateway pundit.
	Trump is slashing wait time from months to days amid the crime crackdown.
	So now we're supposed to believe that Trump is pro-Second Amendment.
	The guy who set a precedent of gun control by executive order, one that was Lala Harris, as dumb as she is, she immediately jumped on that and said, I'll give them 100 days to enact my gun control, and if they don't do it, I'll do it by executive order.
	That was when she was running in 2020.
	And that campaign didn't last very long either.
	She's good for about 100 days, one way or the other.
	That's all you can stand her for.
	That's right.
	But so Trump, who was the first president ever to do gun control by executive order, to say, take the guns and do the due process later.
	Now he is a champion of gun rights, according to the MAGA press.
	He doesn't care enough about the Constitution, folks, to even bother to read it.
	He's just like Biden when Biden talks about the Bill of Rights, you know, the thing.
	You know, Trump is the same way with the Constitution.
	He says, yeah, it's this.
	And of course, he's in his office, and I don't know if he played that video or not, but he points to the Constitution.
	He's got press there and he says, and then we have our wonderful, wonderful Constitution.
	What a great thing that is.
	And he says, it just brought us all together.
	And it's like, well, no, it's the principles that are in there you have completely ignored.
	But this is what you have when you've got somebody who doesn't have a foundation, who doesn't have principles.
	He's like a ship without a rudder.
	And so he can be doing gun control by executive order the next day.
	He is out taking over a city under martial law and then saying, and now we're going to get rid of some of the paperwork for gun carrying.
	It's just, he's all over the place.
	It's amazing.
	He's vacillating just like he does with the tariffs and the MAGA minions are cheering him on.
	The Trump administration, federal takeover, Washington, D.C., is making the streets safe and empowering law-abiding citizens.
	And, you know, this has always been what the globalist elite have said, people like Henry Kissinger.
	He said, we're going to arrange things so that people are begging for a totalitarian government.
	And so, you know, they can make things bad enough that people will beg for a strongman dictator to take over everything and throw out the rule of law.
	That is the pattern that is here.
	Just wait, Gateway Pundit, until the Democrats do what Donnie is doing right now and see how much you like martial law and throwing out the Constitution and the rule of law and letting law enforcement, so-called law enforcement, do whatever they want.
	You know, when you don't care about the laws, what does law enforcement mean?
	It's nothing but force at that point in time.
	So Gateway Pundit said Trump announced on Monday that he's taking federal control of D.C.'s Metropolitan Police Department, authorizing the use of National Guard troops to solve the, quote, public safety emergency, unquote, in the nation's capital.
	Now, the two sides are coming back and forth, Travis, and they're saying, well, you know, the Democrats say crime is down by 30% or whatever.
	Yeah, statistics.
	I don't believe any government statistics.
	Washington, D.C. is a mess.
	They've actually changed the way they report crimes and they're not actually sending the reports in on certain specific types of crimes.
	Yeah, not surprising.
	That's exactly the way I expect them to manipulate this stuff.
	And so all the statistics can be manipulated.
	But the reality is that you can't trust either side on this.
	And we do not want to have the federal government federalizing police.
	This is something that John Birch Society got right when I was a child.
	They were talking about do not support your local sheriff, right?
	It became a slogan as opposed to stop federal policing.
	This is a long-term move that has been going on now my entire life.
	And now it is really starting to come to a head.
	And Trump has the audacity to threaten other cities, not just Washington, D.C. So I just say, you know, wait until you get somebody like Hillary Clinton in and wait till you see when she takes over law enforcement how she uses it.
	It'll be something like what we see in the UK happening right now.
	And he has the audacity to call it Liberation Day in D.C. Yeah, liberation from the rule of law and the Constitution.
	That's what he liberated us from.
	Liberated himself, liberated the people that are there.
	They don't have to show their face.
	They don't have to give ID.
	We've got masked men.
	There was an article in San Bernardino that just came out about a family that was in a truck and evidently they were Hispanic and so they were pulled over by ICE because they see a bunch of Hispanics in a truck that figured they're going to get illegals.
	But these people said, we want to see your ID.
	You got a warrant for that.
	You know, you're wearing a mask and all the rest of this stuff.
	He claimed that you're federal agents, but they were videotaping the thing.
	And they told them to get out of the car.
	They refused to get out of the car.
	So as you can see, the videotape, the cops, so-called quote cops, quote unquote, started smashing the windows of the truck, at which point the driver stepped on the gas to get out of there.
	And they said, oh, and you hit two of us.
	But nobody was taken to the hospital.
	Then the other cops started shooting the car, shot the car up, but they got away.
	And suddenly they called up the local police and they went to their house.
	The only person that was arrested was the driver who sped up and ran away from the stop.
	Now, what does that tell you, Travis, about whether or not these people were illegals or not?
	Do you think that they would have taken them into custody if they were illegals?
	Yeah, I think that might give you a clue into things.
	These people have not been shy about just rounding people up and shipping them off immediately under the slightest pretense.
	Yeah, so I mean, you know, they would have arrested these people.
	ICE was itching to get these people.
	Evidently, they were bona fide.
	He's bona fide.
	Yeah, they say in the film, what was the name of that film?
	Oh, Brother Rarta.
	Yeah, yeah, we laugh about that all the time.
	Yeah, I'm bona fide.
	I got my papers here.
	So, yeah, law enforcement has been liberated to do as they please.
	Isn't that great?
	Aren't you happy about that?
	This is another scenario where whether they have the right to do something to you, they definitely have the force to do something to you.
	Yeah, it's not about right and wrong.
	It's not about the rule of law.
	It's just about brute force and what they can do.
	Generally, once the cop tells you, you know, step out of the car, if you do anything but comply, you're going to end up worse off.
	You can fight them in court later on, potentially get a judgment, but you have to be alive to do that.
	That's right.
	They will take any opportunity, any excuse they can to use excessive force and sometimes the most excessive force possible, which is straight to lethal.
	That's not the time to have a government confrontation.
	There are times to do it and times to not do it.
	Yeah, that makes you don't want to be a martyr for this kind of thing.
	Yeah, as much as it depends upon you, be at peace with all police officers.
	Wasn't that in the Bible somewhere?
	Anyway, so let's take a look at how the small farm is getting liberated.
	The death of the small farm is the death of Roll America.
	Well, you know, what they really need is protection from the U.S. government.
	It's big ag and it's the USDA and big pharma that are the problem and big chemicals.
	And it's kind of interesting to see how RFK Jr. has taken a pass now on pesticides because pesticides was something that he always was focused on.
	And now there's a big move in Washington to grant legal immunity to, I guess we could call them big pests.
	I mentioned this on internet.
	I think I told you, but when my wife and I were driving down to Texas this last time, this giant bilbern on the side of the road, I saw, stand up for glyphosate.
	Contact your senator now or something.
	Just who is doing this?
	Who's reading that billboard?
	They're like, you know what?
	Yeah, we need more pesticides.
	We need more glyphosate in our food.
	I just don't have enough.
	But yeah, they're now angling for the kind of legal immunity that was given to the pharmaceutical companies a while back.
	And RFK Jr. has now gone silent on that.
	And so it's big ag.
	It's the USDA.
	It's big pest.
	Big pest, if you roll it all together.
	So they're destroying small communities as we move more and more toward the go big or go home.
	This is from the Epic Times model.
	Thousands of acres of the same monocrop managed by one or two people on a tractor that is spraying chemicals.
	And of course, they're not even driving a tractor.
	They've got it on self-driving using GPS.
	And they don't own the tractor.
	John Deere owns the tractor.
	Yeah, it's a 21st century version of sharecropping where you don't get a share.
	All the shares go to the stakeholders, right?
	What used to be 20 or 30 small farms, each with a household and a family that supported the local restaurant, gas station, feed store, and veterinarian who serviced a few counties, is now being replaced by a single sprawling operation with no animals, no neighbors, and no community, just chemicals.
	And soon robots.
	Well, this reminds me of it.
	We mentioned this, the movie Silent Running with Bruce Dern years and years ago.
	It's kind of interesting because it was The special effects for the spaceships were done by the guy who, not long after that, did Star Wars.
	And it was kind of done with models and things like that.
	They didn't have computer-generated images at the time.
	But in that, it was kind of all inspired by a kind of eco-fanaticism and fear-mongering that, you know, dirty mankind was killing all the forests and everything.
	So it was a last-digit ditch effort.
	What they did was they took some of the forests and other things like that and put them on large spaceships with big glass enclosures and I think so they could get sunlight and went out into space to kind of preserve them until they could get the world cleaned up enough that they could bring back these things.
	And Silent Running is about Bruce Dern, who is kind of this hippie astronaut who goes native.
	He gets a call.
	He is the sole person looking after this big forest that is there.
	And he's got some of these little robots that are real cute.
	They kind of waddle around like ducks.
	And that's what brought it up because you had the NVIDIA CEO at a presentation showing had that little robot come out.
	That was from Disney.
	I have that video on the deck if you want me to play it.
	Yeah, yeah.
	Go ahead and play that so people can see the little robot.
	I almost played.
	It's going to be so cute when it waddles up with a death ray and vaporizes you.
	Droids are different than other robots I've tested because they're designed and trained by Disney to be cute.
	And that is a surprisingly big deal for the future of robotics.
	These droids aren't autonomous.
	They're operated using this controller.
	But I'm not telling you exactly how to do that.
	The way that it responds comes from its training.
	Using ducklings as inspiration, the engineers created a bunch of animations that told these robots how to walk or jump or dance.
	Then they put digital versions of the robot into a simulation where they're rewarded for performing those movements and sticking as close as possible to the original animations.
	After the robots get tons of reps in the digital world, they upload the training to real prototypes.
	And finally, they're ready to go out into the real world.
	See more of Disney's coolest texts go up there on your face.
	Those things are vicious.
	Yeah.
	So, yeah, and when you look at that, it is those things have much more rapid movement than the droids in that movie day because the droids in that movie were actually midgets wearing a box and their feet were in there.
	But they were cute.
	And so to spoil the plot for you, he gets this call from the president, and it's like, you know, we can't afford to pay for these things anymore.
	I don't know where they were saying the paychecks.
	He's up there.
	And so we want to.
	He checks in the mail.
	He's up.
	We don't have delivery servers left.
	Anyway, so he tells them to blow up all these different ones.
	And all the other people are doing it, but he determines that he's going to go silent and he's going to run for it because he's going to save the forests.
	And, you know, they got John Baez singing and all the rest of the stuff.
	But I liked the movie was really bad, by the way.
	Yeah.
	He tried to make us watch it at some point.
	I tried to make you guys watch it because I remembered I liked it when I first saw it.
	I thought, you know, I could see through all the eco nonsense that was there.
	But anyway, that's probably what they want on the family farm.
	You know, they want one Bruce Dern and a bunch of robots and a bunch of chemicals, and that's it.
	You know, you take the food that they offer you.
	Over the past decade, about 140,000 U.S. farms have vanished.
	And that's not just those farms that have collapsed.
	It's also the entire ecosystem that they support.
	All the small businesses in town, diners, auction barns, schools, vets, feed stores, all of them felt the blow.
	I wonder how much of that happened, Travis, during 2020 when Trump locked everything down.
	I mean, it was Main Street America that took the big hit from his lockdowns.
	Wall Street didn't feel it at all.
	Yeah, most of these farms don't operate on huge profit margins.
	They're generally just making it.
	If they are, yeah.
	The economic destruction radiates outward.
	Every boarded up business is a ripple from a missing farm.
	Despite this, small farms are often treated as quaint, inefficient, and economically irrelevant in the modern food system.
	But numbers tell us a different story.
	Globally, farms that are under two hectares, about five acres, produce about 30 to 34 percent of the world's food, while they use only 24 percent of agricultural land.
	In other words, that's efficiency.
	Just to break in with a story, I took my wife out for her birthday dinner on Saturday, and we have this restaurant that's nearby that's nice.
	We like to go to it.
	And basically, everything they serve on the menu is locally sourced from local farms.
	Everything.
	And you can't have that sort of relationship.
	You can't know where it's coming from if you're getting it from whatever major corporation.
	But they were able to sit down and say, oh, yeah, actually, it's this guy.
	He lives, you know, a few miles down the road.
	Him and his family come in and they drop off our produce.
	He's got, you know, three kids.
	You know, they're telling us this story about where the community.
	Yeah, that's right.
	You know, oh, he quit his job and he grows mushrooms full-time now, and his kids help him on the farm.
	It's like, oh, wow.
	I think that's one of the best career opportunities out there.
	I would say, don't learn to code, learn to grow, because you're going to have to feed yourself and you may be able to make a living feeding other people as well.
	You know, that's really important because I just saw another article about how restaurants are really jumping into synthetic salmon now in a big way, you know, to make it look like it's real.
	You know, you know, when you're going to a restaurant like that, that you're getting real food.
	There's a really big bodybuilding channel on YouTube, and it's hosted by a guy named Jeff Nippard.
	He does a very science-based breakdown of bodybuilding stuff.
	And recently he tweeted: as soon as synthetic meat becomes where it tastes like real meat, that's all I'm going to eat.
	That's all I'm doing.
	And it's just, I cannot think of anything more horrifying than eating this little thing.
	Well, you know, a lot of the bodybuilders are not really health aware.
	No.
	This guy prides himself on being all-natural.
	He says he doesn't take steroids and all that stuff.
	I can't say one way or the other.
	But most of these bodybuilders, like you said, they're taking steroids that are monumentally unhealthy.
	Or they're abusing things like creatine or something.
	Not to say that creatine is inherently bad, but you can abuse anything, right?
	Taking massive doses of all kinds of different steroids or even just taking too much testosterone.
	Yeah.
	It becomes extremely unhealthy.
	And just carrying around that level of mass is bad for your heart.
	It's the same.
	Well, it's not quite the same, but it's very similar to as if you were just massively obese.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	One of our friends years ago was heavily into bodybuilding.
	And then he had a back injury and he couldn't work out.
	And it all turned to fat.
	And that was one of the things, if remember, Tad helped that we interviewed the lumberjack in Washington State who had lost his retirement.
	His retirement was the forest that he had set aside for his retirement and the negligence and mismanagement of the federal government had caused a force, a wildfire, to go out of control and destroyed his land.
	It literally went up in smoke.
	Yeah, and that was one of the things he was saying.
	He said, you know, lumberjacks don't live that long.
	He said, we work so hard and we have so much muscle.
	When we stop working, it all just goes to fat and it, you know, really takes out.
	Part of it is just you, when you're working very hard, you're burning a lot of calories.
	You get used to being able to eat a certain way.
	Like, oh man, I can eat as much junk food as I want.
	And since I'm burning this many calories, it doesn't matter.
	I'm chopping down trees all day.
	I can afford to eat, you know, Twinkies and ding-dongs all day long.
	And then you stop doing that and you're still eating Twinkies and Ding-Dongs, and you can't afford that anymore.
	That's right.
	Well, you know, as they were saying, you know, when you look at this, small farms provide a lot of jobs, but they're also efficient in terms of land use, in terms of resources and other things.
	And that's really what this article is about.
	It shows the bad approach, but also shows a more positive approach.
	As they were saying, if they look at about five acres, they produce about 30 to 34% of the world's food while using only about 24% of the land.
	So if you expand that to about 12 acres, then it goes to over 50% of the world's food.
	They said small farms matter because they produce food where it's eaten, keeping supply chains short and resilient and keeping the food fresh.
	That was one of the things we did back in the day when we were competing in video contests.
	We did a thing about locovores, people eating locally and finding food locally.
	We used to do that.
	We used to go up to Virginia and pick apples.
	Carter Mountain Apple Orchard, in case anyone is curious.
	That was really a nice experience.
	We really love that.
	The eggs from down the road, the beef from the rancher that you know by name, employ more people per acre, and they keep the profits circulating locally.
	While most of the farms we've lost are small family operations, the fight to save rural America isn't just about acreage.
	It's also really about the approach to all of this.
	It's not the size of the farm that determines the value to a community, but the farming practices that it uses and the relationships that it sustains.
	And so they have a story about a very successful, very large farm in Georgia that has done just that.
	1,250 acres.
	Will Harris has done this at a farm he calls White Oak Pastures in Bluffton, Georgia.
	His family has had that since right after the Civil War, 1866.
	In the mid-90s, he made a radical break from industrial agriculture.
	Replaced chemical inputs and confinement feeding with rotational grazing, diversified livestock, and on-site USDA inspected processing facilities.
	White Oak Pastures is now one of the only farms in the country with separate abattoirs for red meat and poultry.
	To make this transformation, he took a big risk.
	He borrowed $7.5 million against the family land.
	In other words, he literally bet the family farm on this, but it paid off.
	He did this back in 2008.
	And now his farm is zero-waste, closed-loop agricultural ecosystem where nothing goes to waste, and grass-fed meats, eggs, organic vegetables, and byproducts like hides are turned into artisan goods and compost.
	His regenerative practices have rebuilt topsoil, captured carbon, and sparked a local economic revival.
	If these people were genuine about all of the environmental and climate issues that they have, they would be pushing for something like this.
	But they're not because they're using it as MacGuffin to gain control, to impoverish and to enslave us.
	That's their real purpose in all this stuff.
	You can see how they hate farmers no matter where they are.
	We talked about earlier, was it the Dutch guy in the Netherlands?
	Mark Ruta, yeah.
	Yeah, who all he wanted to do was crush the small farms.
	And he was allied with Bill Gates.
	You know, Bill Gates.
	He's going to do the food with lab meat.
	And then Mark Ruta had married into a family that was a very, very large, owned a very, very large corporation.
	It was about food distribution.
	So they were going to grow in a lab the food and then monopolize the distribution.
	That was what it was all about.
	It was never about the environment.
	Today they employ about 180 people at White Oak Pastures, making it the county's largest private employer.
	What was once a dying ghost town now has a general store, a restaurant, lodging, and an event center because one man chose to bet everything on a different way forward.
	His example proves that it's not scale that matters, it's the soil health, the humane treatment of animals, the jobs created, and the way the farm integrates into the life of the town.
	And you know, Travis, remember, I interviewed that guy, he's in America, and he gives classes to people about how to do more natural farming.
	And he was inspired by a farmer from previously Rhodesia that became Zimbabwe when the Marxists took it over.
	And he said some of the farmers fought him.
	He said they died.
	Many of them just decided to pack up and leave.
	This guy was a Christian, and he decided that he would stay and show them how to run the farms because the Marxists and their mob, when they took it over, they didn't have a clue how to grow food.
	This guy did, and he had a natural way to farm that he had already developed.
	He was not getting the kind of yields that he needed.
	It was actually killing his farm to use these new petrochemicals and these contemporary agricultural techniques.
	And as a Christian, he just asked God, he said, show me a way to do this.
	And he said, God brought to his mind that natural way.
	He looked into the forest and he said, look at this, it's Africa.
	Things are just growing everywhere.
	Why is it on my farm with all the care that I'm putting into this, all the work and all the expensive chemicals?
	Why aren't the plants that I'm trying to grow prospering?
	Everything else around here is prospering.
	And so it was kind of a more of a natural approach that he took to it.
	And he was extremely successful, and he decided he would stay.
	And even though they took his farm away from him as a Christian, you know, he basically not only gave him his shirt, but he gave him his cloak also, as Christ said.
	And he showed them how to farm.
	And he used it as an opportunity to give them the gospel and to basically defang these Marxists, right?
	These people want to kill you.
	You turn them into Christians.
	That's the way you defeat Marxism.
	And so this guy in America got to know him, and he's showing people how to do that in America.
	Look, folks, we can rebuild from the ground up.
	We really can.
	And what it takes is a regard for your fellow man and other things.
	We could even see that in somebody like Henry Ford, who is not a model of a Christian sacrifice, but he knew that he wanted to have cars that his employees could buy, right?
	But do you see that with Musk or with Bezos or any of these people?
	Yeah, how many of his employees do you think are going to get to go to Mars?
	How expensive is that flight going to be?
	Or can they afford to buy a Tesla?
	They really don't care.
	Or when you look at the robots, right, they want to cut the throat of their employees.
	They don't want to lift them up.
	And they're going to cut our throats with robotics.
	That's the way they're going to do this.
	So, as I said, the wake-up call is already ringing, boarded up Main Street, closed auction barns, veterinarians having to relocate to cities, feed stores shuttered, schools shrinking.
	Food has been a weapon in almost every war in history.
	Without control over our food supply, we surrender control over our future.
	And of course, when we were talking about Ukraine earlier, it's probably one of the best, well, best known examples of food as a weapon in the Halamador.
	But of course, it's being used in Gaza now as well.
	This is what Trump accelerated in 2020.
	And when I say, you know, what is it that government can do, government can go away.
	It's the USDA that is stopping people from being able to do the food processing on their own farms.
	And it's the USDA, especially under Trump.
	Brooke Rollins personally approved the mRNA vaccine for chickens.
	So now you get industrially produced chickens.
	You get it from chickens that have been vaccinated with mRNA.
	This is the alliance between the big pests, as we call them.
	Meanwhile, you have the Prime Act is now coming up again.
	This is something that in the past was initiated by Thomas Massey, if you remember, in response to the USDA raids against a Pennsylvania Amish farmer.
	And he put out the Prime Act last year.
	Now, they don't give him credit for this on the conservative press.
	They want to cheer Marcia Blackburn.
	And good for her, she finally introduced a good bill after many, many very bad bills.
	She introduced the Genius Act.
	She's introduced this, what is it, COSHA?
	COSA.
	COSA, yeah.
	COSA to sneak in ID in order to use the internet in the name of protecting children.
	So she's all about digital ID everywhere, especially in the financial system.
	But here she's working with Angus King and Rand Paul.
	These three senators introduced last Thursday.
	A guy named Angus working on the Prime Act is pretty good.
	Better watch his back, right?
	So anyway, they've introduced the Prime Act.
	And I guess we're not in for any ribbing about that.
	The act attempts to give states the power to allow interstate distribution of custom slaughtered meat to consumers, restaurants, and grocery stores.
	Well, it's not just the interstate distribution.
	The USDA was coming in and shutting this down, even if it was within the state.
	And the problem that I have with this is that the Fed never had the power to do this.
	They've got this whole thing backwards.
	They're assuming that the USDA was doing what it was authorized to do.
	What they need to do is not protect this.
	They need to shut down the USDA.
	We don't need the USDA at all.
	All agricultural oversight and concern about food quality and inspection, that can and should be done locally and at the state level.
	The federal government should have no involvement in that.
	And under the Constitution, it has no involvement in that.
	Show me in the Constitution where that power was delegated to the federal government by the states.
	It's nowhere to be found.
	And the 9th and 10th Amendment, if the senators wanted to read it, makes it clear that they don't have that authority.
	Now we operate from the standpoint, the federal government can do whatever it wishes unless it is expressly prohibited.
	That is exactly the opposite of what the Bill of Rights said.
	The Bill of Rights said that they don't have the power to do anything unless expressly delegated to it by the states and the people.
	And so this is, I hope that from a pragmatic standpoint, I hope they get something like this together, but it just shows how far we are from getting anything solved politically because they have the Constitution exactly backwards and upside down.
	Blackburn's press release notes that many states don't have many USDA certified facilities, which leads to farmers and ranchers having to transport their animals across the state or to other states.
	Processing procedure becomes more expensive and time-consuming for both farmers and ranchers.
	If you remember, I forgot the guy's name in Pennsylvania, the Amish guy.
	But he was saying during the pandemic, as they locked everything down, he couldn't book any time at the approved slaughterhouses.
	So he started slaughtering them there locally, and he's doing it naturally.
	And he said, you know, when they put them on these feedlots, they're not giving them the best quality food.
	They're giving them a lot of GMO stuff and everything.
	His customers much preferred to have the locally grown, locally slaughtered beef.
	And they knew what was going into their food at that point in time.
	But that's the whole point.
	The USDA is a big part of the problem.
	And just to give states the freedom to allow this is still not the issue.
	The USDA is one of the biggest problems we have with our food supply, they and the FDA.
	They're asserting themselves where they're not needed, wanted, or have the authority.
	But what aspect of government doesn't do that at this point?
	I know.
	I know.
	But again, when you look at the massive amount of money that we spend in Washington and they're doing things for which they have no legal authority, there's no more legal authority for the USDA than there is for what Trump is doing in Washington, D.C. with the police.
	They just do whatever they please.
	It's becoming more and more obvious, isn't it?
	In Tennessee, Blackburn said the second highest grossing farm commodity is beef.
	She said the states, farmers, and ranchers shouldn't be held back by federal government red tape from selling their safe and fresh meat in the community.
	By passing the Prime Act, she said, because they're not going to challenge the Leviathan, we can kind of carve back some of the power that Washington has assumed.
	Isn't that great?
	Anyway, the way that's reported with the Tennessee Star, they say House members who bring a companion bill are Chelsea and Thomas Massey.
	They have to put Thomas Massey in there.
	They don't want to feature him prominently because they want to support Trump and not Thomas Massey.
	I want to support our food and our farmers.
	I don't care about Trump.
	This is not the first time they write that the Prime Act has been introduced in Congress.
	In 2023, the Prime Act was introduced in the House.
	They won't tell you it was introduced by Thomas Massey.
	Isn't that interesting?
	But it never made it to the floor.
	Why would that be?
	I don't know.
	Anyway, Goldman Sachs is now saying America's egg supply has likely normalized after a supply shock.
	Who shocked the supply chain?
	Again, the USDA did that.
	And it only stopped because Brooke Rollins, this political hack, has approved an mRNA vaccine.
	And that's what they were after in the first place.
	They wanted to have a faux crisis.
	So they had an excuse to create an mRNA vaccine to inject all of our food with.
	If they can't get you to take it directly, they'll just inject it directly into your chickens or cattle.
	Yeah, that's right.
	Pork.
	And of course, the pharmaceutical companies can make a lot more money because there's a lot more chickens and pork and beef and everything.
	If you take a look at all of the farm animals, if they can inject them and do it on an annual basis, I mean, you know, they try to treat us like cattle.
	They talk about herd immunity, but they're not going to get all 300 million Americans to take an annual vaccine, but they can get, you know, 600 million farm animals to take it annually because they can get the farmers to do it.
	It's a real cash cow.
	That's right.
	So Goldman Sachs thinks that the nation's egg supply has likely normalized.
	Well, if you call having mRNA injected into your eggs normal, then I guess we could say that's the case.
	But just like Trump's policy, it said the reckless policy of running a PCR test, and if you get one positive, you kill millions of birds at a particular facility.
	They called that reckless.
	Well, yeah, that's right.
	But it was just like all of Trump's COVID policies.
	They were all reckless.
	And so were Biden's.
	The two of them, again, are operating off the same script.
	It's all professional reckless.
	We got this little dude out of here.
	It says you've got a virus.
	It says it.
	So now we've got to kill all the elderly people.
	Put them in a home.
	We're going to kill them.
	We're just going to kill them.
	So now they're saying, well, we're going to leave you alone with eggs for right now because now we have been able to inject our poison into it.
	Even as the egg market stabilizes after recent supply shocks, it's still wise to have backyard chicken coop and take part of your food supply into your own hands, right?
	Zero Hedge.
	Boy, that is especially true, especially when you look at the fact that these mRNA vaccines, and when you go to tractor supply, they're proud of the fact that the chicks that they sell you there are injected with mRNA for bird flu.
	And it's like, okay, we'll go get them somewhere else.
	As a matter of fact, we found another supply place and Karen got the name of the people and called them up and they said they began with like have a blessed day or something.
	They were Christians.
	I said, oh, we would never put that in our chicks.
	And it's like, good.
	So I went back and got our chickens there.
	Trump, meanwhile, is launching what some have termed a Manhattan Project.
	It's one of America's largest companies is set to be nationalized.
	This is from the Daily Mail.
	I have said for the longest time that Trump is a New York City Democrat.
	He has all the hallmarks of a New York City Democrat, including his friendship with Epstein.
	And what this is, is, again, we are becoming more and more like a third world banana republic with nuclear weapons.
	That's what third world banana republics do.
	They nationalize industries.
	What is the company that he wants to nationalize?
	It's Intel.
	You know, Lance, you and I were talking about this the other day when we talked about the competition between NVIDIA and AMD.
	I didn't realize that these two Taiwanese companies, AMD and NVIDIA, were essentially owned by the same family or the cousins or something like that.
	You knew about that.
	Yeah, I believe the CEOs are cousins.
	It's the same family that owns both of these two major graphics card companies, the first and second.
	And people get real tribal about which one they like.
	You know, people are real into AMD.
	That's the best value.
	Or no, NVIDIA is the way to go.
	Well, Trump is getting real tribal and nationalistic, and he's even going to take over this business.
	We talked about this, I think you talked about last week or something, the fact that he starts criticizing the CEO of Intel and said, this is a guy who's got connections to the Chinese and all the rest of the stuff.
	So now he's talking about nationalizing it after he throws this guy under the bus.
	He's got connections to the Chinese.
	Does Trump not understand where Taiwan came from?
	Well, you expect something like this from a professed socialist like Mam Donny or whatever.
	This guy's running for mayor in New York.
	And yet, look at this.
	This is Trump, supposedly the arch enemy of that and the polar opposite.
	And yet, it's Trump and his Republicans who are now going to push the nationalizing of a large company like Intel.
	It's just amazing.
	They'll do whatever Trump wants to do.
	And again, Democrat Don from New York City is acting just like the socialists, as you would expect.
	So the company that they're concerned about, TSMC, which is Taiwan's semiconductor and manufacturing, that was started, as I pointed out before on the show, started by a guy who was an engineer at Texas Instruments.
	Texas Instruments wanted to move away from semiconductor manufacturing.
	And so after he had worked there for like 30 or 40 years, he went back to Taiwan, where he was from, and went to the government, got some seed money from the government there, and he created TSMC.
	He's like in his 90s now.
	And it was very successful.
	As a matter of fact, it's really Taiwan has so much state-of-the-art chip manufacturing there.
	That's why the U.S. is so focused on keeping China out.
	But whatever happens, if China were to invade Taiwan, if they were to take over the semiconductor fabrication centers there, again, they would use that as leverage against the U.S. Now, the other alternative would be for the Taiwanese to use that as a poison pill and blow them up, which again shuts down the world supply.
	So either way, it doesn't look good.
	Either way, you need to have some semiconductors here, but you're not going to get this if Donald Trump starts running Intel.
	The government should not be running these corporations.
	Instead, if they were to get out of the way, there would be more of an incentive for private people to take a risk, just like that farmer did in Georgia.
	We don't need the government taking over and running farms.
	You need people who have an incentive and a vision to take it over and run it.
	I don't even agree with the achievement.
	They tell me Intel makes ships.
	I said I'm more of a laisseman myself, but you know, do each their own.
	Yeah, you wouldn't know a semiconductor from a potato chip bag.
	Anyway, both Biden and Trump threw billions of dollars at TSMC to open up an American plant in Phoenix, as I talked about that.
	It's been a real culture shock, especially because the American engineers said they were kind of iced out of any discussions.
	The Taiwanese engineers are very clickish.
	They would speak in their language instead of English.
	And then when they came to the U.S., a lot of the engineers said, well, we got finished with our work.
	And these guys who are Taiwanese would just hang around afterwards, virtue signaling about how they don't have a life except for the company.
	Their entire life is devoted to the company.
	They said, when we're done with our work, we want to go home.
	So it's kind of created a real cultural issue.
	I don't see that working very well.
	I don't know what's going to happen with Intel.
	Intel had weathered the semiconductor stuff.
	When I was working for Texas Instruments, they were having a lot of trouble getting manufacturing done.
	All of their production was coming out of Japan.
	The American production facilities that we had in Houston were not producing much of anything.
	And I think it's one of the reasons why they wanted to get out of the business.
	But the Japanese and some others got into memory chips, RAM chips at the time.
	And it became a commodity market.
	And so it was Intel that started doing microprocessors, and they were very, very profitable because they had a niche that was based on innovation rather than on getting the cost of manufacturing down, which is what happened with memory chips.
	And it's part of what I think soured TI on that whole thing.
	But when the government is going to actually nationalize an industry, and who didn't see this coming?
	I mean, that's the next obvious step when you get in so much subsidy from Washington.
	Trump is there picking winners and losers, rewarding his pals and contributors with big contracts and all the rest of the stuff.
	That crony capitalism is going to naturally evolve into nationalized industries.
	And that is going to, we're going to become like China in order to defeat them.
	We're not going to beat them at their own game.
	We've always beaten these centrally planned nationalized economies by having a free economy that allowed for innovation.
	Anyway, former the they said this feels like the Manhattan Project.
	And you know, I've got a review of the book that was done by Alex Karp of Palantir.
	Palantir is on the news now on a daily basis.
	I've been talking about this for a long time.
	And if you want to see something really scary, get Alex Karp's book, The Technological Republic.
	And I did get that book, and I've been reading it.
	And he constantly refers to the Manhattan Project and the Atom Bomb as being the pinnacle of American history.
	That was when government was really strong.
	That was when government was in union with corporations.
	I think, well, you know, Alex, we got a word for that.
	It's called economic fascism.
	That's what you're promoting.
	And of course, what is really disgusting and scary is that the guy who is part of this, you know, he's allied with Teal and the Technocrats, and of course with Trump, he is a bigger warmonger than Lindsey Graham, if you can imagine such a thing.
	And this is a guy who is sitting there watching and analyzing each and every one of us with his spy software.
	And he just wants government to be involved in everything.
	And he wants us to be involved in every kind of war.
	And so here you have people talking about this nationalizing of Intel.
	They call it a Manhattan Project.
	This is a bit off topic, but of course, Palantir CEO and Palmer Lucky are going into business together to create a new crypto wallet currency.
	I forget exactly what it is.
	They're calling it Erebor.
	You know, they've got Palantir and Durrill and now Erebor.
	People pointed out Erebor was the area that was looted and sacked by Smaug the Dragon, which is a very strange thing to call the banking system thing you're working on.
	They kind of tip their hand, don't they?
	I always thought that that was a real hat tip with Palantir.
	And of course, they embraced the Tolkien symbols and all that stuff very heavily in their corporate culture and talked to people about it.
	It was very intentional that they would make their surveillance and data mining company that they would name it after a crystal ball that was designed to surveil people and even to look inside of them.
	Yeah.
	I think it works on multiple levels because Aragorn, as the true king, has the authority to look into the Palantir.
	He's allowed to use it without it corrupting him.
	He has the physical and mental fortitude to do it.
	And I think that's how they see themselves.
	Oh, we have the right to do this.
	We're strong enough.
	We can do it, and therefore we must.
	Oh, yeah.
	What emerges from Alex Karp's book is amazing how elitist this guy is, how statist he is, how fascist he is, how warmongering he is.
	And I've got something I'll be putting up on Substack about it.
	Anyway, stack.com forward slash the David Knight Show.
	Yeah, they say it's every bit as important as the space race was in order to take over these companies.
	You know, I guess my question is: well, why can't we just fake it again?
	How important was the space race exactly?
	You're going to have to quantify that.
	Why don't we fake this whole AI thing?
	You know, a lot of people used to say we're not.
	Yeah, they've done that.
	They've been caught doing that many times.
	But when they say, yeah, this is AI watching everybody pick up stuff in the grocery store, the convenience store, and totaling up what they're doing.
	And it turned out that it was an army of underpaid Indian workers.
	So people started joking that AI stood for actually Indians.
	Well, the other one that just happened where there was a coding group that tried to pass off their projects as done by an AI agent.
	And it was just a massive amount of Indians.
	Maybe that's why we're getting less scam calls.
	Maybe they're all taken up, you know, pretending to be AI right now.
	Well, I don't know.
	AI starts asking for your credit card number.
	You know, something's up.
	I don't know if Trump nationalizes Intel.
	Who's he going to get to run it?
	Peter Navarro?
	That's one thing that Musk got right.
	He is dumber than a psychobricks.
	Anyway, Alex Karp thinks that the atomic bomb and the Manhattan Project were the pinnacle of America.
	I think just the opposite.
	I think there's this nader.
	Anyway, he constantly talks about and loves war.
	His book is The Technological Republic.
	I said to you guys, I said, can you imagine the outrage if somebody had written a book called The Theological Republic?
	And yet their religion of technology is of technocracy is just fine and it is laudable.
	And he's got people like Mattis and others, General Mattis, who write the foreword to his book.
	And it is amazing.
	And you can see from the people that are heaping praise on him, you can see how he is connected.
	And of course, he is.
	Peter Thiel and Alex Karp now are kind of the inner core of Bilderberg, like where Kissinger used to be.
	They really are at the center of the elite.
	So Taiwan controls more than 60% of the market in order to power artificial intelligence, defense, and the economy.
	So again, we've got to just nationalize it.
	If it's important, we're going to nationalize it.
	We've already seen this from Trump with the rare earth minerals.
	He's already started pouring massive amounts of money into de facto nationalize these companies if he doesn't do it altogether.
	And the problem that he has, as he's saying that he's going to put 100% tariff on any computer chips that are not manufactured in the United States, as he wants to shut down rare earth minerals, the problem is like a petulant child.
	This dictator doesn't wait until there's a domestic alternative.
	He's just going to shut it down now and tell people to bootstrap using what after he takes away their supply chains.
	It's actually idiotic.
	And it's one of the reasons why we can see that people of this mentality cannot run the companies that they nationalize.
	This has always been a hallmark of Marxism.
	It's why we were always able to transcend the Marxist authoritarian countries because they had the hubris to think that they could run these different industries.
	That was one of the key insights, I think, that Hitler had over Stalin.
	Both of them call themselves socialists.
	Both of them were totalitarian.
	Both of them wanted to own and run everything.
	The difference between them was how they were going to come into it.
	And Hitler said, Stalin took over all the industries and thinks he can run them.
	He says, I'm going to let these guys run it until we get to the end.
	Then they basically slit their throats and take the business.
	It's a smarter way to do it.
	But, you know, again, they're not that much different from each other, except in their approach.
	Trump is actually more of a communist.
	He's more of the Stalinist approach than he is even of a fascist.
	So we'll have to see what happens.
	He doesn't have the good sense.
	Yeah.
	Again, it's going to be another precedent for Trump, a very bad precedent.
	And this comes after two AI companies last week agreed to hand over 15% of their chip sales revenue in China to the U.S. government in exchange for export licenses.
	That was also unprecedented.
	And that was the other two companies run by the cousins, the Taiwanese cousins, AMD and NVIDIA.
	So he hit them with a 15% thing.
	A lot of people are saying, wait a minute, we thought this ban on Chinese exports of these chips to China, we thought that was about national security.
	Now it's all just about the money.
	And yeah, that's really what it is because everything for Trump really comes down to money.
	In the short term, this is fantastic, said one analyst.
	In the long term, wow, this could turn bad in a hurry.
	Yep.
	It's an incredibly slippery slope precedent, said another.
	The deal could pour more than $2 billion into the U.S. government, the New York Times reported, although Trump did not reveal what the money could be used for.
	Again, do we really want to see, is it a win?
	Conservatives, MAGA people, when government grows, do you want to characterize, continue to characterize that as a win?
	I don't see it that way.
	I think it's a big loss when government grows because it takes things away from the rest of us.
	Sources say Trump and the AI companies entered the agreement.
	The president declared that he would impose 100% tariff on imports of semiconductors and chips unless they were built in the United States.
	Again, he's going to lock down manufacturing since it's going to take a time for these things to be set up, even if they are set up.
	As I said before, he's nothing other than a petulant child, a dictator who demands, I want it now, now.
	You know, this is like, he's like Kim Jong-un-un in that regard.
	The two of them are so much alike.
	He always shoots par.
	He always does the exact right thing.
	Yeah.
	Well, there was an interesting thing, you know, when we, this is to, now for something completely different.
	There was a jet that was taxiing down the runway, and they were giving a kind of a reward flight to a recruiter, letting him fly on a jet.
	Somehow, he didn't get the briefing from Q about the ejector seat.
	See the gear lever here?
	Now, if you take the top off, you'll find a little red button.
	Whatever you do, don't touch it.
	No, why not?
	Because you'll release this section of the roof and engage and fire the passenger ejector seat.
	Ejector seat, you're joking.
	I never joke about my work, 007.
	Yeah, well, let's take a look at what happened with an E-Jetson.
	This is the air show where they had this happening.
	He just barely made it out of that.
	Nobody was hurt.
	To be fair, this is actually probably more rare than getting a ride in a fighter jet.
	How many people actually get to re-develop?
	Here it is in slow motion.
	Look at this.
	That doesn't even look real.
	That looks like a special effect.
	Notice how it does them sequentially.
	First it does the backseat passenger, and then it does the pilot.
	I wonder how many billions of dollars it costs to put those seats back in after they've been used.
	Yeah.
	Or is that jet just completely scrapped?
	What's going on there?
	I don't know.
	That was in Westfield, Massachusetts.
	And even James Bond got a briefing on that.
	Evidently, they didn't give that to this guy.
	The passenger was reportedly a recruiting officer.
	The unplanned ejection occurred during what is called an incentive flight, a reward for service members.
	So they put that out.
	There's an incentive.
	You do this and that, you meet these goals.
	We'll give you a ride in a fighter jet.
	He's got the ride of his life.
	You sucker enough teenagers into signing up for this.
	Yeah, that's right.
	So he got ejected.
	Yeah, apparently Q didn't brief him.
	See that red button?
	Do not touch it.
	That's kind of funny.
	You get into, can you imagine getting in the back seat of a fighter jet and you start pushing buttons?
	I had a friend who was.
	What does this one do?
	What does that one do?
	I had a friend who was in the military.
	I was really good friends with both these guys in high school.
	And his brother went to see him when he was in the army.
	And he was in tanks, right?
	And so his brother shows up and he says, would you like to drive this tank?
	Which is like, I would have never said that to his brother.
	And he says, he went crazy, and he started running over trees and everything else.
	But anyway, I guess that's what happens sometimes.
	It just depends on your personality type.
	And then speaking of people who don't really know how to control things, we had a tragedy in Florida, a turnpike, which I looked at this.
	I have no idea where the Florida Turnpike is.
	When I was in Florida, there were no toll roads or anything like that.
	But this is a migrant truck driver from Punjab who allegedly executed an illegal U-turn on the turnpike, and he wound up executing people by doing that.
	Catastrophic collision that killed three Americans.
	We have a video of this.
	No, actually, that's another one.
	Thank you very much for the U-turn.
	That's a different video.
	Here is the U-turn.
	The guy actually had his cab camera actually caught it.
	As you can see, he's turning.
	There comes the car crashing into it, going fast.
	And they cannot slow down in time, and it killed all the people in the car.
	As I point out, this is something that has been happening in a large degree under Biden.
	And of course, it all focuses on Biden and California in this article, except that this guy came into the country in 2018.
	Who was president then, Travis?
	Can you remember?
	Can I get multiple choice?
	I think it could be Trump or Mario.
	It can't be Trump because he protected the border, right?
	No, he didn't.
	This guy came in, but he did get his commercial driver's license in California and doesn't have to read or to be able to understand what is happening with it.
	And this is an article that was put out by American Truckers United because they're being undercut with cheap labor from people who can't speak English, can't read English, and it is a real threat, not to mention the fact that they haven't really had them qualify in the California system as drivers.
	One of the most chilling things about that video is just the lack of any emotion or expression at all on the guy's face.
	Yeah.
	He doesn't, when he sees the car fly into it, nothing.
	Yeah.
	He doesn't put his head in his hands or have any reaction.
	The pictures of him standing around afterwards, he doesn't seem to be distraught either.
	Zero remorse.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, you know, that was, they have the Mansfield bar on the back of the trucks.
	They call it that because Jane Mansfield was decapitated, an actress in the 50s.
	She was decapitated.
	She fell asleep and the driver rear-ended this truck and took off the top of their car.
	But there is no bar on the side, and that's where that truck hit it.
	So I had basically the same effect.
	And so American Truckers United said, we've urged Transportation Secretary Duffy to ban commercial driver's licenses that have been issued to non-citizens and to probe these threats.
	But the inaction persists amid record migrant influxes into the industry.
	So so far, six months in, nothing has been done by the Secretary of Transportation.
	He's now getting a lot of heat, and you can now expect that something will happen, but it had to result in three people losing their lives.
	There are multilingual signs at Walmart and Amazon depots that signal the scale, yet mom and pop U.S. truckers face bankruptcy while migrants fuel fraud and fatalities.
	And, of course, it's all being done for greed so they can make a little bit more money, right?
	They want to, the big corporations and the big companies like Walmart and Amazon, they want the cheapest possible stuff.
	And they will eventually...
	They don't care if you're some third world immigrant that has faked everything working for a fake company.
	Well, of course, they're going to replace everybody as soon as they can with robots and self-driving trucks.
	And you can imagine, you know, you talk about remorse.
	There's not going to be remorse from the AI when it does a kind of move like that guy did.
	It was calculated to be more efficient.
	It will arrive sooner.
	I remember a couple years ago, these guys were testing out self-driving on an 80,000-pound semi.
	And what had happened was the test drivers had switched it off when it was in the middle of a turn in a parking lot.
	And they were going down the highway like this, like a turnpike like this, and they switched the thing back on.
	And it came back up in the state where it was.
	So it thinks it's in the middle of a turn.
	And it does a hard left or whatever across there.
	And they said, fortunately, there wasn't anybody there.
	But again, it would have done exactly the same thing.
	It should have cleared the memory state.
	Yeah.
	It would have done the same thing the Seek guy did.
	The American trucking industry has been gutted by unregulated immigration over the past five years.
	These so-called California drivers put greed before your family.
	The corporations do.
	This is from the American Truckers United.
	And they're absolutely right about that.
	Well, we're going to take a quick break and we come back.
	We're going to take a look at what we're doing.
	We've got a lot of comments before we go to break.
	Oh, thank you for reminding me again.
	Yes.
	Stealth Patriot.
	Thank you very much for the tip.
	He says, welcome back, David.
	You almost have to look with fondness when Biden was president and told an outright lie, except he already had a history of lying.
	You could blame it on his dementia.
	Yeah, you know, when we that's the key thing about Trump, Trump is there.
	They put people like Trump in so they can get away with things that they wouldn't be able to get away.
	They play this tribalism.
	You know, they know that Democrats can get away with certain things and Republicans can get away with certain things and they can't get away with certain things.
	And so that's one of the reasons why they do this left-right stuff.
	It's one of the reasons why we had mail-in ballots, was to get Trump out and to get Biden in.
	Bloatin gifted 15 more subscriptions to the show on KICK.
	That's a total of 25 today.
	Thank you so much.
	I appreciate that.
	And old dude one, thank you for the tip.
	He says, until the people recognize the foundation of reality and pursue right standing with God's standard, America's dissent will continue.
	The battle is ideological.
	Creation versus evolution.
	Origin matters.
	I agree, absolutely.
	Did you mention last week about Answers in Genesis and their Pigeon Forge thing that opened up?
	No, I didn't.
	Well, folks, if you haven't seen it, if you're in the area, stop by.
	I haven't seen it yet, but I just saw it on Friday or Thursday or Friday.
	Answers in Genesis, which does a great job of creation versus evolution, has opened up a virtual reality presentation.
	They've done it here in Pigeon Forge.
	They're going to do another one in Branson, which is kind of like a clone of Pigeon Forge in a lot of different ways.
	And anyway, it's worth stopping by there.
	They do a great job, always have.
	They have engineers that used to work for Universal and Disney down in Orlando, and they do an excellent, first-rate job.
	They make the truth entertaining.
	It doesn't need to be entertaining, but why not make it that way?
	Can greet more people that way.
	Conservative thinker, thank you very much.
	He says, this new set is missing a Nathan Bedford Forest necktie.
	Yeah, we got a place to get that.
	It's from Ryan.
	It's right over there somewhere.
	Oh, we have it.
	Okay, good.
	I saw it last night, and I have to grab it.
	B. Turner170, thank you very much for the tip.
	He writes, welcome back, David.
	Glad you returned in time to host your annual 9-11 show.
	Looking forward to it.
	Well, thank you very much.
	You know, it's interesting.
	Didn't realize it until we did a little promo saying I was going to be back today.
	Didn't realize, but this is almost exactly to the day, eight years after I began my solo show back in 2017.
	It's kind of interesting.
	We didn't plan it that way.
	Skunk Hollow Rose Gardens.
	Thank you very much for the tip.
	It says, peace be with you, David.
	Thank you.
	Audi, Modern Retro Radio, says, keep me in your prayers, folks.
	I talked to the president of my company.
	If he and the former owner don't achieve an agreement regarding transfer of the company, I could be on the job market by December.
	Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that.
	Also, remember, he's got Modern Retro Radio.
	I don't know how the support works on that, but he's got a great radio program there.
	All right, we'll keep you in our prayers.
	So sorry to hear that, Audi.
	Karen Carpenter, 27.
	Very common for people to see their mother or relatives waiting for them at the end of life.
	I've read hundreds of near-death experiences.
	So fascinating.
	Yes, that's true.
	That's one of the things about this atheist that I was talking about earlier.
	He started saying things.
	As a matter of fact, one of the issues, and it was really a well-written article.
	One of the issues was a guy that he visited whose wife had severe dementia and she was totally non-communicative.
	And he was visiting the family and went back because she died and he needed some support.
	And she was incapable of responding to anything.
	She always had her head down and her mouth open and that type of thing.
	And he said that when he went back to console the husband, he said she was talking to angels.
	And he said, I'll be right back.
	And he came back with a bunch of pictures.
	And he said, this woman who hadn't talked for years, all of a sudden he hears her talking and he walks in and she's sitting up in bed, motioning with her hands and talking and all this other kind of stuff.
	And he started taking pictures of her stills and showed them to this guy who was the hospice guy.
	And he was totally stunned by it.
	He said, there's absolutely no way.
	You know, a lot of times when people are very sick or maybe even in a coma, sometimes they'll come to just before they die.
	And he said her body was too badly damaged for that, you know.
	But anyway, she died about an hour after that event.
	And that's something that's very common.
	I have relatives who've had that type of experience as well.
	Little Ford Schoolhouse, good to see you.
	I used to work in hospice, and it is very difficult, emotionally draining, definitely.
	Yeah, I agree.
	As I said, most people only last about five years.
	This guy lasted 33 years, but it changed him.
	It really softened him up.
	NMAX.
	In Minnesota, 80% of deaths were in nursing homes, forced to take the flu shots.
	And CV, yeah, that was the saddest thing about it.
	I remember seeing pictures of them going to a home where they had somebody with Down syndrome who didn't want to get the shot.
	They were screaming and they pinned them down and gave them a shot.
	It's just barbaric what they did.
	Audi, modern retro radio, Trump is bringing up all the classic scandals to make us forget about Trump Stein.
	Yeah.
	Don't frag me, bro.
	Like Stalin said, it doesn't matter who votes, it only matters who counts the votes.
	That's right.
	And does it matter who you vote for if the ballot is so tightly controlled by both the Democrats and Republicans that they eliminate your choices, even within the party?
	And they also eliminate the debates.
	How dare Trump complain about the mailing without ballots when it's based on his lockdowns?
	And you want to talk about rigging elections.
	What about the fact that neither Trump nor Biden wanted to have any debates either within their own party or with each other?
	I mean, they just don't want to shut everything down.
	They're afraid.
	Reminds me of that old saying, you know, better to keep your mouth shut and be thought an idiot than to open it and confirm it.
	And you'll both are like, ah, I better not.
	I think that was Lincoln that said that.
	Yeah.
	It was anyway.
	I find it funny that there's the very well-known saying, it's not who counts the votes, or it's not who votes, it counts, it's who counts the votes.
	And apparently Trump never heard that before.
	He has to, you know, I talked to this guy at Putin, real clever guy.
	He says, mail-in elections, bad idea.
	Yeah, yeah.
	Who could have known?
	I could have known.
	Nobody could have known.
	It's crazy.
	Well, he would know.
	He's somebody who's rigged enough elections in his own lifetime, I'm sure.
	Nice of the storm.
	Crime goes down under Democrats because they don't charge people.
	Yeah, there you go.
	Just let them go.
	We won't count that.
	Audi, Modern Retro Radio.
	Trump is turning the country into a perpetual police state.
	Yes, we have something on that.
	I hope we can get to it.
	There will be military presence all over the country before his term ends for our safety.
	Of course, yes.
	Nice to the storm.
	They don't want you to have weapons of war, quote unquote.
	Yet the police have both those weapons and equipment used in war, and they're getting more and more of it all the time.
	Dougalug says, oh, let's see, where are the Clarkson's farm is interesting as he runs into government regulations, making it hard for him to do his farm to fork plan.
	Yeah, I haven't seen it.
	A lot of people have spoken highly of it.
	Eric Peterson likes it a lot.
	And I imagine that's one of the real benefits from it.
	You know, when you see the obstacles that government puts in people's way when they're trying to earn a living, I grew up with that.
	I grew up watching my dad struggle as an independent businessman.
	And I had two grandfathers who had both had to fight the government to make a living.
	That's the reality.
	And I'm glad that Clarkson is doing that and televising it so people can see what is happening.
	And they're also coming after the pubs.
	And so he's opened up a pub.
	I know a little bit about the program, even though I've never seen it.
	We're going to have to watch that.
	Nice of the Storm.
	It's really good.
	Is it?
	Yeah.
	Yeah, he's always funny.
	Maybe he can invite Piers Morgan to the pub and dump a pint of beer on his head.
	We can only hope.
	Yeah, he famously did that on the Concord.
	He dumped champagne on him or something.
	I think he also might have hit him a little bit, too.
	I know he's just a little bit.
	Maybe just a little bit, yeah.
	Nice to the storm.
	All the pro-Second Amendment stuff in the big, beautiful bill got neutered.
	You still need to beg permission for certain items.
	Yeah, we were told they're going to get rid of the requirements for suppressors and stuff like that.
	They just kind of vanished.
	So, yeah, it was big, but it wasn't beautiful.
	Ironically enough, it was kind of silently removed.
	Yeah.
	Only folks, a Democrat like Democrat Don would call a gigantic omnibus bill beautiful.
	That in and of itself should tell you something.
	Audi, modern retro radio.
	Trump is trying to reestablish credibility again, which will prove to be another grift of deception.
	Yes, the worst is yet to come, folks.
	Stay tuned.
	Nights of the Storm.
	They don't want you to have weapons.
	I think I already did that one.
	With the price of beef, who can afford to be a stakeholder?
	S-D-S-A-H-A-H-A-D-H-A.
	That was a good one, Jason.
	I appreciate it.
	Mem Moore 2244.
	Technocratic feudalism is here.
	It is, and they're going to be rolling it out big time.
	They're going to accelerate it.
	That's Trump's purpose there.
	Trust.
	Remember all the people in his administration who said, I'm here to restore trust in fill-in-the-blank.
	I'm here to restore trust in the FBI by withholding the Epstein documents.
	I'm here to restore trust in vaccines and so forth by doing some show hearings and things like that.
	That's what RFK Jr. said.
	I don't want trust restored in these unconstitutional organizations.
	I want them shut down.
	Centurion Blood said, one thing I can say I like seeing is a lot more mom and pop butcher shops popping up in South Texas.
	Good.
	That's a good sign.
	Don't Frag Me, Bro says, if you want to get inexpensive, good beef, find local 4-H and FAA events, okay, and sponsor kids to raise cows.
	There you go.
	Well, the problem was that in Pennsylvania, they had people who bought shares in the cows.
	That's one of the ways that people get around the government's war on raw milk.
	You buy the cow, and now that's your own milk.
	But they were not having it.
	And it's kind of interesting.
	They were supported by the USDA, but it was actually the state of Pennsylvania that was cracking down on Amos Miller.
	His name just came to me, Amos Miller.
	I believe it was the state of Pennsylvania, of course, probably in cooperation with the USDA.
	About the Disney robots.
	Caboose 888 says, so Disney is part of the military-industrial complex now.
	They get a lot of money.
	I'm sure they could channel some of that research over there.
	And if the military ever wants to have little cute robots to do suicide attacks on the other side, I'm sure they could contact Disney.
	One team to make it waddle like a duck, another team to turn the eyes red and have the imposing movements.
	We could go full terminator bot.
	Also, when it comes to propaganda arm of the military-industrial complex, I'm sure Disney is involved.
	They've done nothing but horrendous anti-family, anti-life propaganda for years and years and years.
	That's right.
	Yeah.
	Karen Carpenter says, my cousin had a farm-to-table restaurant, but lost it during this candid.
	Again, you know, like I said before, how many of these farms got shut down by Trump's lockdown?
	It really hammered the middle class in Main Street America.
	Conservative thinker, I'm seriously considering getting a cow or a couple of goats.
	Get the cow.
	Maybe forget the goats.
	They're high maintenance, I've heard.
	They can get into a lot of mischief.
	Goats are really cute, though.
	Yeah, they can destroy a lot of things.
	Yeah.
	Also, if you're going to get a cow, you need more than one.
	They're very social animals.
	You need at least two cows or the cow gets depressed and isn't very healthy.
	They're extremely social, and you need at least two, preferably more, from what people say.
	Yeah, and you need a couple of donkeys or a great pyrenees or something to guard them as well.
	Yeah, it's a whole thing.
	Starting to get a menagerie.
	It's like you needed this entire skill set to care for these things or something.
	The goats will be easier.
	Yeah, keep the local vet in business there.
	Minuteman Militia.
	Honestly, when I see a commercial truck on the road in Canada, I either stay way back or try to get around him.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, that's always good advice anyway.
	There's one exit in Austin that's by the airport, and it's a lane that you can ride in for a long time, and then all of a sudden it becomes a turn-only.
	And I know that was coming up.
	I would always get away from the lane right next to it because truckers would ride in that lane and they wouldn't know it was coming up.
	And two times it saved my life doing that because they last second just swerve right out of it.
	Yeah, yeah, it's amazing.
	Yeah, it's a difficult thing to drive, and there's so much mass with it that you don't stand a chance.
	I wouldn't drive one.
	Defy tyrants, 1776.
	18-wheeler is sometimes going 80 in the 60 zone here.
	N Max, we must demand these drug and food corps get corporations get prison time, not a slap on the wrist.
	Yeah, I haven't even seen them get a slap on the wrist for this stuff that they're doing anyway.
	Well, we're going to take a quick break.
	When we come back, we're going to take a look at a little bit of the stuff that's happening in the UK because the anger there is really getting dialed up and with just cause over the double standard.
	We'll be right back.
	Stay with us.
	But unlike most revolutions, where the people rise against a real economic oppression, in our case here in Boston, we are fighting for purely an abstract principle.
	It is, however, not nearly so abstract as the young gentleman supposes.
	The issue involved here is one of monopoly.
	The British government will monopolize the sale of tea in our country.
	Tomorrow it will be something else.
	It's your move.
	You're listening to The David Knight Show,
	defending the American dream.
	You're listening to The David Knight Show.
	What?
	What's going on?
	Oh, okay.
	Played a little bit of a clip there of the American Revolution, but it looks like the British are about to have a revolution on their own home territory.
	People are getting so upset with the double standard.
	Their government has decided they want to take everything away from them, and not only that, but they have nothing but contempt for native Britain.
	They are bringing in people from other countries and defending them.
	It's a two-steer-tier standard of justice.
	I've mentioned this on the show a couple times, but there's an account on Twitter that just basically covers nothing but the migrant rapes that happen in England.
	And there's basically a new one every single day.
	Wow.
	Well, in this particular one, this is the police getting a backlash after they failed to arrest an asylum seeker who entered an elderly woman's home.
	And this is, I guess, maybe the asylum he's seeking is an Arkham.
	If you look at this guy, he is truly kind of crazy looking.
	If you look at the expression on his face, he's got his head down.
	His eyes are rolled up.
	His chin is down as he's talking to the policewoman there.
	London Metropolitan.
	He's a stand-up citizen right there.
	Exact type of person you want in your country.
	The asylum seeker housed at a hotel, entered an elderly woman's home without permission, and then the police showed up and drove him back to his hotel and released him without arresting him.
	And this is all happening while we see things like a woman who's silently praying near an abortion clinic.
	She's now been arrested three times.
	She has taken the police to court, and the courts have said, no, this was illegitimate, her arrest, and actually made the police department pay her compensation, and yet they've just done it again.
	They are absolutely going to shut this down.
	The man entered the property through an open door while being followed by a group of men in the street who also walked in.
	Fortunately, no violence was done.
	They claim that no intent can be proven, so he was not arrested.
	But, you know, actually, somebody posted up, they said, well, you know, there's actually a law about this.
	No, in the UK, anyone is not permitted to enter a private house without the explicit or implied consent of the homeowner or occupier, as you would imagine.
	Unauthorized entry into private property is considered trespassing a civil wrong.
	There are some exceptions, such as in emergencies or with a valid legal warrant.
	And I guess we could also include if you are a so-called asylum seeker.
	But anyway, the response was very different for this guy.
	As a matter of fact, this is a video clip of what happened.
	Has just entered a lady's property without her consent.
	These officers have said it's not an offense.
	They're letting him go.
	They're letting him go.
	Officer, how is that not an offense?
	How is it not an offense entering someone's house?
	Regardless.
	She didn't want him in the house.
	He's alive being discretion.
	He's alarmed having discretion.
	You're letting him go.
	They should be ashamed of themselves.
	Next thing you know, they're going to start wearing masks like the American federal cops.
	Regardless, he's done.
	I liked them better when they had their funny outfits on.
	He doesn't need to.
	Yeah, when they're bobbies.
	They've adopted more of an American-style approach.
	You know, you're going to cause a war on the streets.
	You know, you're causing a war on the streets, right?
	Carry guns, wear bulletproof fest driving cars.
	You're causing a war on the streets.
	How are you letting him go?
	And then, of course, America's going to take a few pages from there.
	It's about brutality.
	I'm taking it an offense entering a property.
	Can I have your name with mamma, by the way?
	Do you think it's not an offense entering a property?
	Regardless, if I entered your house with your wife and kids and now, are you going to be angry and want to get me arrested?
	Angry?
	No, but you have to prove intemperance to burglary.
	Same thing when I was black letter law, trespassing.
	Burglary.
	No, they didn't.
	No, they didn't.
	All I done was walked in the house.
	I got done for a tentative burger.
	So you get the idea.
	People are rightly angry about all that stuff.
	Yeah, it used to be, I remember it was a guy, what was his name?
	Roger Williams.
	He had a song about the Bobbies.
	Bobby's on by England swings like a pendulum do.
	He said, Bobby's on bicycles two by two.
	And they used to ride bicycles.
	They used to not carry guns.
	They used to have the tall helmets and everything.
	And they used to be polite.
	Well, they're still very polite, even as they wrongfully arrest people and let criminals go.
	They're still known for their politeness, but all the rest of the stuff is gone by the way.
	Imagine a boot stomping on a face forever, followed by a very polite apology.
	Oh, so sorry about that.
	Stamp, stamp, stamp.
	Yeah, that's basically it, isn't it?
	The response is markedly different toward protesters who are angry about the housing of asylum seekers in the area.
	Three demonstrators outside the migrant hotel questioning why the man was not arrested were themselves detained, including a 22-year-old woman facing multiple charges, such as common assault on a security guard, possession of an offensive weapon, and a fray.
	It was an affray.
	A Section 35 dispersal order was issued leading to the arrest of a 28-year-old man and a 57-year-old woman for breaching their order.
	So we're going to declare an emergency and then arrest everybody who's still here.
	And of course, if you want to learn any more about that, go ahead and put your government issue ID and selfie on the registry of whatever website has this so that the government can see who's looking at it according to our new bills to protect the children, of course.
	That's right.
	Yeah, they will arrest you for what you say about on social media as well, as showing up in the area to protest the migrant hotel that's there.
	The person who objected to his presence gets the book thrown at her while they do absolutely nothing to him.
	As one person pointed out, yeah, this is not your country.
	You've got to understand it's not your country anymore.
	And there you have the police jumping on a woman who's on the ground.
	And that truly is, like I said, that would absolutely be unthinkable.
	It used to be the joke about, you know, what hell was like.
	It was like the British, heaven would be where the British are, the police, and the French are doing the cooking and all the rest of this stuff, and the Germans are doing the music, but hell is where the British do the food.
	Yeah.
	The French run the infrastructure and the Germans are your police.
	But now I think it's where the British are your police.
	They're really trying to say, of course, Britain has put itself at the forefront of this technological takeover.
	People are openly talking about the prospect of civil war.
	The country has had enough, but those in HQ think the answer is a few lines of text, wrote one person.
	Conservative political commentator, Sophie Cochran, said, so you're telling me this demonic-looking man whom we know nothing about, this is this guy right here, can walk into a woman's flat and not get arrested.
	Women are doomed, she said.
	And of course, we see the two-tier justice system in the UK all the time.
	One guy who was a counselor, a leftist counselor who was a part of the Labour Party, got up and called for cutting the throats of mass migration protesters.
	He's now been acquitted of all charges and set free, while conservatives who expressed anti-illegal immigration sentiment and tweets are still languishing in prison.
	As a matter of fact, this guy who got up and he said, we need to cut all their throats and get rid of them.
	They are disgusting Nazi fascists.
	Well, they let him go.
	But a woman who put up a post complaining about the immigration stuff has now gotten 31 months, nearly three years.
	I can play the videos in the article if you want.
	I don't know if this is just going to be some rant from some.
	Yeah, no, we're going to get to, I want to get to some AI before we run out of time here.
	So anyway, this woman got nearly three years and they've taken up a collection on social media to help her and her family.
	On the day of the Southport stabbings, she posted on X, mass deportation now, set fire to all the hotels.
	And if that makes me a racist, so be it.
	Now, you know, the other guy, again, was saying to, was it cut off their heads or something?
	And she's cut their throats.
	And she is saying to burn down these hotels that the government is using to house people.
	So they got her for racial hatred.
	She pled guilty and was given 31 months in prison.
	She should have gone for a jury trial.
	I kind of think that maybe the jury did some jury nullification on the case of this other guy.
	I know Britain is so heavily non-actually English now, she might not get a fair shake even in a jury trial.
	That's true.
	It's so full of foreigners that there's no guarantee.
	Yeah, they're probably the ones who did the jury nullification for this other guy.
	So she got 31 months in prison and they've taken up a collection for her and her family.
	They've gotten more than $100,000 for her.
	While the counselor's words explicitly called for violent acts like cutting throats in a public setting, he walked free after a jury trial.
	She faced swift conviction for a single social media post that did not directly advocate physical harm in the same graphic manner.
	There you go.
	It's all preparation for civil war.
	And as a matter of fact, in Off Guardian, which is a British news outlet, they did an article talking about previous civil wars that they've had.
	And of course, England has had its civil war.
	They did cut the throat of a king that was there at the time.
	But things are getting really bad.
	And he says, you know, part of what happened with that was a massive change in the way land was structured.
	And he said, the parallel to today is that many of the people, the yeomans who were kind of the middle class at the time, they were benefiting from these land changes, and so they didn't do anything about it.
	It was only the poor people who were hurt by that.
	This is one of the reasons why the fourth turnings are usually economic and then become a war.
	And that is what we are racing full speed ahead to right now.
	So they've had their Guy Fawkes gunpowder plot.
	They've had the civil war there between Cromwell and the King and all the rest of this stuff.
	And many people are thinking that that is the type of thing that may happen again.
	The problem is that while there's a lot of frustration, there doesn't seem to be any agreement in terms of principles.
	And again, I don't see violence as an appropriate response.
	I think we need to look at ways that we can go around this system.
	And we need to create our own parallel society.
	And, you know, it's not saying that's easy or even possible, but that needs to be what our focus is on instead of turning immediately to civil war.
	Well, we're going to take a short break and we're going to come back.
	By the way, this is one of the reasons why these people are so hell-bent on doing censorship.
	I would just say, we talked about this a little bit earlier, briefly, D.C. residents are right to protest the unconstitutional police roadblocks.
	This is an article from Reason.
	It said checkpoints for general crime control are illegal and they smack of a police state.
	I absolutely agree with that.
	You know, when you look at Trump's friend Rudy Giuliani, I think was at the center of all this stop and frisk stuff, where if the police didn't like the way you looked, they'd stop their car, stop you, and frisk you on the sidewalk in New York.
	I don't like that so-called law enforcement approach.
	I think that it is lawless enforcement when they do this type of thing.
	But we're moving towards that very, very quickly.
	NBC News and other outlets reported that more than 100 protesters turned out Wednesday to heckle federal law enforcement at a checkpoint in D.C. and to warn drivers about the police ahead, leaving aside the dubious overall legality of the White House's alleged takeover, supposedly about an emergency and an executive order.
	The use of such generalized roadblocks is obnoxious.
	They go on to talk about how the Supreme Court has made allowances for that if these roadblocks are set up as sobriety checkpoints.
	As somebody who's never been drunk, I take exception to being stopped by the police and having to prove that I'm sober to them.
	It's like, you know, I thought we had the presumption of innocence, and that would include the presumption of sobriety unless you see otherwise from me.
	I've never agreed with all this stuff, and it just goes to show how the Supreme Court can throw us under the bus so easily.
	They sharply limited the use of police checkpoints.
	They can't be used as a pretext for general crime control activities.
	They can only be used to harass, they can't just be used to harass the community, which some people are saying is happening here.
	But it absolutely is being used for that.
	It's harassing the community when you do a roadblock and check people to see if they are sober as well.
	You know, did somebody report me as driving erratically?
	Did you see me driving erratically?
	Do you smell alcohol in my breath?
	I've reported when we were in Austin, they were really bad about that.
	I reported on a guy who's perfectly sober.
	And because he talked back to his masters in uniform, they took him down and did a forced, forced blood draw on him.
	I'm sure that the place is very sanitary where they did that as well, the police.
	But SCODIS, back in 2000, in a case out of Indianapolis, said that they said that they can't sanction stops justified only by the generalized and ever-present possibility that interrogation and inspection may reveal.
	that a motorist has committed some crime.
	And yet that's a great deal of what happens with being pulled over.
	You know, it's, first of all, they're doing it for revenue.
	Secondly, it's a fishing expedition to see if they can find something else that's there.
	This is just expanding that.
	Metropolitan Police Department spokesperson said that the roadblock was a quote traffic safety compliance checkpoint.
	They said a focus on car safety would arguably pass muster under the Supreme Court case, but then that raises the question of why federal agents would be enforcing routine traffic stops like that when that's not really what they're there for.
	They're for other things.
	The New York Times reported that the federal agents were running sobriety checkpoints, not vehicle safety checkpoints.
	It's hard to take any of these conflicting explanations very seriously.
	Instead, it appears that it is in keeping with President Trump's general contempt for the people of D.C. He's just interested in a campaign of harassment.
	He's got an axe to grind with them.
	They wanted to lock him away.
	In 2022, a Mississippi Justice Center filed a lawsuit challenging Jackson, Mississippi's use of ticket arrest and tow checkpoints, causing the city to overhaul its policies.
	In 2019, Madison County, Mississippi also settled a lawsuit over police roadblocks that happened to appear predominantly in black neighborhoods.
	And of course, Reason has talked about this a great deal.
	Most news outlets don't.
	Sole asset forfeiture is another issue.
	And when you look at some of the places like Chicago, they target people who are poor.
	They target people who have cars that are worth about $1,000, which is nothing today, because they know that these poor people are going to have to come up with $900 to essentially start a legal process to appeal the theft of their property by so-called law enforcement officers.
	Several New England ACLU chapters successfully sued to shut down Border Patrol checkpoints in New Hampshire in 2023, about 100 miles from the Canadian border.
	The civil rights group argued that the Border Patrol was using the checkpoint to detain and search motorists well beyond its authority and far from its jurisdiction.
	Well, they have repeatedly said that they have jurisdiction 100 miles from the border, and this is what we have to look forward to.
	All of these agencies, just like the TSA, are constantly expanding their reach.
	They're like cancer that is eating into our country.
	During vehicle safety regulations, they're using these as a fig leaf to allow federal law enforcement to harass and investigate drivers, and this should not be tolerated by the courts.
	Well, they shouldn't be allowed, in my opinion, to use safety as a fig leaf either to harass drivers.
	All this is awful.
	But Free Thought Project says, as we mentioned earlier, this is about setting up martial law one city at a time.
	It's how the emergency state operates in the open.
	Well, first you might have a real but manageable problem that is then inflated into an existential crisis.
	Or if it's not a real problem, you can take something like the pandemic, which is totally fictional, and you can then create a fearful emergency out of that.
	If the problem is real, typically if you look at it, you find that it is the government that either created that problem or exacerbated that problem.
	And then they come in with their special protections.
	This is from the Rutherford Institute, John White.
	He said, he starts with a quote from H.L. Mincin, who said, the whole practical aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed and hence clamorous to be led to safety by an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary.
	I quoted that many times during the pandemic.
	Every American should be alarmed by Trump's Liberation Day tactics, his theatrics, and his threats.
	This is no longer about partisan politics.
	This is no longer about wag-the-dog distractions from the Epstein debacle or even genuine national security concerns.
	This is martial law described, disguised as law and order, just like he did.
	Martial law disguised as health protection.
	Why would people ever give him a second chance?
	I mean, that was so clear.
	It was always medical martial law.
	Under Trump 2.0, the descent into outright tyranny is accelerating because, as I said, he is an accelerationist.
	He's there to make this move more quickly.
	They've only got a few years.
	They want to have their new society set up by 2030, and it's 2025 already.
	They've got to get this stuff underway.
	He is their guy.
	It was a time for him to be in place.
	Trump is taking aim at yet another so-called crisis by waging war on crime in the nation's capital.
	Whether the trigger is terrorism, civil unrest, economic instability, or public health, the aim remains the same: expand the reach of the federal authority, justify more militarized policing, and condition the public to accept the suspension of rights in the name of national security.
	And I think the worst of this is yet to come.
	And when we look at the foundations being laid with these ID bills, I think that truly is the case.
	He says these are not isolated decisions, they're part of a coordinated playbook for bringing local jurisdictions under direct federal control one crisis at a time.
	Breaking the police state's hostile takeover of the country and our Constitution into a series of incremental moves, the administration sidesteps the broad public backlash that a single sweeping declaration of martial law would provide.
	I don't even know that that would do it.
	It certainly didn't do it in 2020.
	That was, to me, the biggest disappointment.
	Not so much that a politician would attempt to do it, but that he would get away with it, and that so many people in the media would put their career over the Constitution and support him telling you things like it's 4D chess.
	Don't worry.
	Trust the plan.
	Trust Trump.
	That was the thing that really concerned me in 2020.
	Well, we're going to take a quick break.
	When we come back, we're going to get into AI, and I'm going to let you take the lead on this.
	This is what you guys are really focused on.
	We're going to take a quick break.
	Stay with us.
	be right back.
	You're listening to The David Knight Show.
	All right, welcome back.
	Let's talk a little bit about artificial intelligence, Travis.
	You know, when we look at this stuff, and I think you reported last week about physicians who turned over diagnostic tasks to AI, and they found out that their diagnostic abilities atrophied very, very quickly.
	You know, I've talked about that for the longest time.
	You have London taxi drivers who had to do what they call do the knowledge.
	And, you know, London is fragmented into all these tiny little streets that in the days when people walked everywhere or rode a horse, you know, they'd have a short street and it would change name.
	And then as things kind of got interconnected, they're constantly changing names.
	And so it was a very, very complicated, large city to get around in with all these different names.
	You know, it wasn't like you've got First Street that runs north and south for a long ways, and then you've got avenues that run east and west.
	There are some cities that are like that.
	But, you know, these guys would study for a long time riding a bicycle so they could learn the names of the streets and everything.
	They were evaluated, and they could actually see that their brain, a particular part of their brain, had actually enlarged that allowed them memory in terms of remembering this stuff and also being able to map it out.
	But the converse of that is also true.
	And it reminds me of a movie I saw many years ago.
	I'm sure you haven't seen it called A New Leaf.
	I don't think it would even heard of it.
	Yeah, I don't think that it would hold up today.
	But it's Walter Mathow, who you probably also don't know.
	But he was in the original movie version of The Odd Couple.
	Again, another cultural reference that you wouldn't know.
	Walter Mathow played this guy who sees this woman who is a total klutz.
	She can't do anything.
	She's stumbling, dropping, knocking things over, spilling things constantly, and totally addle-brained.
	But she's got a large trust fund.
	And so he zeroes in on her.
	He's going to marry her for her money.
	And he does that.
	But then in the process of it, you see a transformation as he starts to have to take care of her.
	And he starts to get kind of paternal and he's guarding her and all this other kind.
	And it completely transforms him to have that responsibility.
	But what we're seeing is AI is the exact opposite.
	It is turning us into what she is like, you know, in the movie.
	These incompetent rubes that are incapable of doing anything.
	The sheer number of people.
	Whenever I'm on Twitter now, under every single post, there's someone saying, Hey, Grock, summarize this for me.
	I can't think.
	I think the mental image to have here is the Wally carts with the big fat guy.
	It's like you can see the effects when you remove all physical exercise and just sit back and let machines do everything for you.
	You would wind up like the big fat people in Wally.
	But you're having sort of a mental version of that happening with AI.
	That's right.
	Same thing happens with our brains if we don't exercise.
	As a matter of fact, that was a key part of my physical therapy: they give you things to do to train your hand.
	My hand wouldn't move.
	And that was the issue.
	It was really strange.
	I had the stroke.
	I couldn't get my left hand to move.
	That's how I fell out of the chair the first time.
	It's like I'm thinking, you know, Command C and it wouldn't do it.
	And I kind of look at my hand and mentally I shouted at it, Come on, Control C. You know, I didn't know.
	All right, I'll do it with my right hand.
	I reached over, and then at that point, I fell out of the chair.
	That's when you heard me.
	But Geesebusters, thank you very much.
	That is very generous.
	I appreciate that.
	He says, So good to see you, David.
	Special thanks to Travis Lance and Karen for keeping the show on.
	Yes.
	And they did it without any prodding from me.
	Thank you so much, Travis.
	You know, Travis and Lance came to me, and I can understand because I never had any interest in getting in front of the camera either.
	And it was kind of forced upon me out of necessity.
	And they did as well.
	I didn't ask them at all.
	I knew that they could do it, but I also knew that it wasn't something that they necessarily were interested in.
	So I really do appreciate you doing that.
	So don't worry, we got the show covered and we're going to do it.
	And they just started doing it.
	I really do appreciate that.
	And all three of them have worked so hard, especially to help me as well.
	And I just want to thank all of you for the encouragement, the support, and especially the prayers.
	And I want to give God the glory for this because as we look at this, the things that happened at the hospital did not really help.
	They actually hurt.
	The third stroke I had was induced by the operation that I now, in retrospect, believe was absolutely unnecessary.
	And the damage done to the nerve under my tongue, which is just now starting to come back.
	And the damage that was also done to my vocal cords, all of that was predicated on that.
	After I got through with the actually the second stroke, the first one I think was just a TIA.
	Second stroke, they took me to the hospital.
	And before the doctor came on at a teleconference, I was able to talk and communicate with them.
	So I said, well, there's nothing we're going to do.
	But, you know, they didn't really have anything.
	So we've got a very dangerous medication we could give you, but we don't need to do that.
	Take the risk.
	It's like, good, this guy's good.
	But they don't really have anything there to help you.
	But, you know, they will always try to come up with something that they could do, whether it's going to help you or not.
	First, do no harm should be the approach, but that's not really the approach that happens with it.
	But when I got finished.
	There are all the PSAs about if someone's having a stroke, you need to act real fast.
	You get to get them to the hospital immediately.
	Time is of the essence.
	It's all about speed, speed, speed.
	And that's kind of one of the classic tells of a con is, you know, it's a limited time father.
	I mean, there's more to it, but they didn't have anything.
	Like, we rushed you in, and it's like, my dad's having a stroke.
	And they're like, okay.
	And it's like, all right, we'll do something.
	Fix it.
	Well, they took some images of it, you know, and then they said, yeah, yeah, that's what he's having.
	Okay.
	You know, there are some things that you can do, by the way.
	Methylene blue has been found to be very effective if it's given within, I don't know, you know, 48 hours or something like that.
	But of course, they didn't do that.
	They wouldn't give me any vitamins, anything like that.
	And we did take methylene blue.
	What horrible tasting stuff that is.
	Took it in the liquid format.
	It truly is bad, isn't it?
	It's unpleasant.
	It's not good.
	It tastes very, very strange and bad.
	It was like licking the inside of a dirty shoe the way the way a dirty shoe smells.
	It was awful.
	Also, it just dyes your mouth blue when you're finished.
	It looks like you ate a smurf by the time you're here.
	Yeah.
	I tried that and I tried red light therapy.
	I mean, if it's something that's not going to be harmful, and I think the red light therapy really did help quite a bit.
	And perhaps methylene blue did as well.
	But, you know, I'm open to things that are not harmful.
	It's a good reason to give it a try.
	But I really do appreciate all of your support.
	And I just mention all that and go through this whole thing because it wasn't the hospitals that really helped.
	They harmed.
	And it is God who is capable of healing.
	And part of the healing that is there, again, is using these things.
	I said, you know, use your hand, use your tongue, use all this stuff.
	And that's what AI is trying to do to pacify us, to have us not use all of those things.
	Delta Gold, thank you for the tip.
	It says, glad to see you back.
	God bless you and the work you obviously have been chosen to do.
	You're waking up people.
	Me as an example, both to God and the times that we live in.
	Name is Jezrazai Gronkowitz.
	So thank you very much.
	I appreciate that.
	Chevkin says, as a kid, I wanted to visit England.
	Definitely not now.
	Yeah.
	We went when we were young, and it's just, I've always thought about going back, but now just that England is gone.
	It doesn't exist anymore.
	Well, the England we took you to in 2001 was not the England that Karen and I went to in the 1980s.
	We went a couple of times and we spent a great deal of time in England.
	It was wonderful.
	We didn't have any money at the time, but we did have time before I started my job.
	And so we just went to free museums and things like that all the time.
	And it was great.
	We both had a wonderful time.
	And the people were very nice in the city.
	But when we went back in 2001, it was a big city and it was now, you know, different ethnic groups pitted against others.
	And it was a very, very different feel.
	And we ran into some people that were kind of what you would expect to find in a large city.
	Yeah.
	I got something.
	I think it was the flu on the flight over.
	And so for about a week and a half, two weeks, I was just out of it.
	I was barely conscious, staggering around.
	And I fell on the steps when I was climbing them from coming up from the subway.
	And there was this guy.
	He was obviously in a bad way because he had a broken leg and a cast.
	And my pinky finger just barely grazed his cast.
	And he went ballistic.
	He grabbed me under the arm and dragged me up the stairs.
	And I'm just out of it.
	Like, what's going on here?
	Yeah, we were ahead of you.
	And I remember turning around.
	It's like, how dare this guy do that?
	But yeah, it was just the opposite happened when Karen and I were there in 1980.
	We had a britrail pass, and we hadn't gotten it validated in the proper way.
	We didn't know that we needed to go to the main office and do it.
	So we used it on this trip.
	It was the first time we were using it.
	And this foreign conductor, he was an immigrant.
	He gave us a really hard time.
	And said, well, I can show you our ticket and show you that we just got here.
	I haven't, you know, even if you think that we've been using this from day one, it still would be valid.
	And there was a middle-aged lady who was across the aisle, and she said, see, yeah, leave these young people alone.
	How dare you come to a country like this?
	And, you know, so she just, and he cowed down.
	She was a classic, a classic character, and she really cowed this guy down.
	And we said, Well, thank you very much for standing up for us.
	I appreciate that.
	He said, No problem at all.
	Honor Britain and all.
	We were running into people like that.
	We were running into the people who were there during World War II, who fought the Battle of Britain.
	Those were the people that we were coming across most of the time.
	And they were a different group of people by design that they've done there.
	Audi, modern retro radio, roadblocks and checkpoints are clearly a Fourth Amendment violation.
	You and I agree on that.
	They should not have any kind of a roadblock for any kind of a purpose, unless you've got a situation that they've got to be on the lookout for a bank robber who's just left and he's gone down this road.
	So they're going to stop people and look at him or something like that.
	They've got a reason for that, but not with these other things that they do.
	Audi, modern retro radio, again, thank you for the tip.
	That is very generous.
	And we will definitely keep you in our prayers.
	Thank you for doing that.
	I appreciate that.
	Thank you for your support.
	He said, God has got this in terms of his job.
	And I agree.
	Think of it this way.
	If we'll pray for God's protection for you, he may have something even better for you down the road.
	That's the way we feel about things that have happened to us that looked difficult at the time.
	A Syrian girl, no intent.
	Why would he ever enter another person's house uninvited?
	Yeah.
	But you can't do that without punishment in the country that he came from.
	She said, those cops know that they're doing wrong.
	Look at their body language.
	Yes, they're very sheepish about that.
	And Cecilia 14 says, David, I don't know if you've covered this yet, but they've now approved a flu mist.
	Very dangerous.
	Shedding for 28 days, by the way.
	Yeah.
	They're going to spray it.
	They're going to put it in our food supply and all the rest of this stuff.
	Fidgety guy says methylene blue has a blue label warning from the FDA, the highest warning available for non-prescription drugs.
	Medical studies and rodents have shown that methylene blue causes tumors, liver or thyroid.
	Well, I didn't do that much of it, but thank you for the warning.
	We'll pass that along to people.
	I thought it was a strange thing, but it really did awaken my tongue.
	I think that red light therapy is of all the different things that I did, I think that's my favorite and the one that we could definitely tell made a difference.
	And it made a big difference with Karen's knee and her pain as well.
	Also helps with muscle recovery.
	And if you stop and think about it, it makes sense because vitamin D is something that our body manufactures in response to sunlight.
	And, you know, this is another wavelength.
	And they kind of tuned in a couple of different wavelengths in the near-infrared spectrum that they have noticed are very effective in terms of pain relief and sometimes in terms of healing.
	They can also activate mitochondrial mitochondria in the same way that methylene blue is alleged to have done.
	So that's very important.
	And yeah, there's the claim that it is carcinogenic, which it might be.
	I don't know.
	I haven't done too much research on it.
	But a lot of it is what we saw with the horse medication back with all that, how they want to discredit anything that they can't patent and sell at absurd profit margins and things that aren't going to actually be harmful to get people coming back to the hospitals.
	That's right.
	Yeah, I wouldn't take ivermectin as a prophylactic, but if I had a very bad cold, I think it was probably pretty effective for that.
	And it is something that has been used for 60 years, and people, so it's got a pretty long history on that.
	They were trying to shut that down because people were using it simply because people were using it off-label, meaning that the drug itself had been evaluated for safety, and they'd evaluate it for, they said, for efficacy for certain things and proved it for that.
	However, this is taking that drug and using it for a different purpose than they have tested it for.
	So that was what the big issue was.
	But of course, we know, as you point out, it's about profits.
	So you're always going to see that.
	Bottom line is you need to do your own research.
	Yeah, that's what I was about to say.
	We don't know if it's good or not.
	We all medical professionals, before you take methylene blue, look into it for yourself.
	That's right.
	That's right.
	I also think just, you know, anything, there comes a point where what you're going through may be worse than even the bad side effects that come with some of their horrific drugs.
	Yeah.
	You shouldn't, I think, have the freedom to take some of even these dangerous, awful things that they push on people.
	They shouldn't push them.
	They shouldn't force people to take them.
	The key is informed consent.
	You should know what you're getting into.
	You should be able to have the option.
	If your life is, you know, the quality of life is greatly degraded and you think it's worth it to take some of this stuff, maybe it helps.
	I think that you should be allowed to make that decision, but it has to be your decision.
	And you need to be able to look at the box and say, okay, this is going to do this, this, this, this, this, and this, and then make that assessment for yourself.
	I've always felt that way.
	You know, if you've got something like terminal cancer, why wouldn't they allow somebody to take a drug?
	And of course, that's exactly what they're doing in Japan.
	It's what Mark Hall is, why he's going to Japan to interview them.
	They look at something, they evaluate to see if it's harmful.
	If it's not harmful, yeah, of course you can take it, and you become a data point for us to see whether or not it is effective.
	That is a rational approach, but we don't do that in the United States.
	The pharmaceutical companies are free to do anything, FDA, but not you.
	You get no freedoms.
	That's right.
	That's right.
	Let's take a look at AI.
	We've got AI-powered radar can now spy on your phone calls from 10 feet away.
	Oh, by the way, Brian and Deb McCartney just heard not so good things about methylene blue.
	It stains your organs and deteriorates them after many uses.
	Well, I guess that's good that it tasted so bad because I didn't use it that much.
	You're not going to get addicted to it.
	No, you definitely wouldn't.
	It doesn't do anything.
	Yeah, so there are definitely side effects.
	The thing is, there are also side effects to these other drugs.
	Basically, all of them have pretty horrendous side effects.
	I don't know, maybe methylene blue is as bad as the others, maybe not.
	But it has also been shown to be very beneficial in recovering from a stroke.
	Yeah.
	And there are a few other applications where it does have beneficial uses.
	So don't treat it like candy and take it for whatever ails you.
	But at the same time, I think there are legitimate uses for it.
	Like we were just saying, you're okay with that risk.
	I didn't see anything in terms of a stroke after, you know, after your brain cells have been killed.
	I didn't see anything that they said helps to alleviate that, except for the methylene blue.
	But of course, the one thing that does help with that is to use it.
	We have this thing called brain plasticity.
	Just as we were saying, you know, your brain, think of it like a muscle.
	If you don't use it, it atrophies.
	But if you do use it, it can get stronger.
	And that's one of the things that they've said.
	They've noticed brain plasticity in infants who maybe they had some brain damage or a stroke or something like that at a young age.
	And while they can identify one side of the brain or the other as being primarily used for language issues, they found that infants who had that side of their brain messed up would basically have those functions replaced on the other side of their brain.
	So, you know, God has made us in wonderful ways.
	And that's one of the things I took away from all this stuff.
	You know, we take so much stuff for granted in our bodies that we don't even think about.
	I mean, there's all these things that are happening at a subliminal level in your body that you're not even aware of.
	You're not even thinking.
	You're not even trying to tell your hand move.
	But when you get to the point where your hand doesn't move and you're trying to tell it to move, like I said, when I first shower I took, I put some champagne poo on my left hand and I put it up on my head and I'm just thinking it's going to start doing its thing.
	And it just sat there on the side of my head.
	It's like, gonna move this hand.
	When you start to see things like that, you realize just how fearfully and wonderfully made we are.
	I don't know how anybody could look at the human body and not think that it was designed by intelligence.
	You have to understand that.
	Intelligent design is a no-brainer.
	The question is, has God spoken to us through his son?
	That is a question with eternal issues involved in it.
	But the idea that there is a God, an intelligent designer, even atheists have come up with their own theories.
	Oh, we had panspermia.
	Aliens came here and started the race and all the rest of this stuff.
	But it truly is amazing.
	And when you start to see your body break down like that, and It really does make you wonder at what God has really accomplished.
	It truly is astounding to see it and to see how delicate it is.
	And that's what has really put me off of hospital because it's kind of like somebody rushing through this China shop with all this very delicate stuff on its shelves and breaking everything as they go.
	That's kind of the way it is when they do an operation on you.
	But let's get to the AI.
	AI-powered radar spying on your phone calls from 10 feet away.
	To me, this is almost, you know, it's interesting, but also a little redundant.
	If they want to know what your phone calls are, they can simply go and ask, like, hey, give us a record of everything this guy's ever said and done, Mr. Verizon.
	And Verizon will turn it over.
	This, you know, yeah, when I talked to William Benny, he said, it's not like, you know, of course, Michael Hayden said, whoa, we're not out there listening to your phone calls and reading your text messages.
	And William Benny, who was the former technical head of the NSA globally for a very long time and became a whistleblower, he said, of course not.
	He said, the metadata is far more useful than going through and trying to parse somebody's conversations or their texts or whatever.
	The metadata can be used by people like Alex Karp at Pellantier to determine what you're going to do next and who your friends are and what your religious and political beliefs are.
	They can infer all of that from the metadata.
	And then figure out what you're going to do before you even know you're going to do it.
	That's things companies have already achieved.
	So I see this as an interesting headline to look at, but I don't think this gives them any more information than they already had.
	Well, I don't know.
	The advancement of technology is going to find uses in espionage.
	Like, they could have places where they're monitoring all the calls made in an area.
	I mean, granted, they could do that with software as well, but this is just yet another tool of surveillance that they are going to be using against.
	They could put these radar microphones or whatever they are up in any sort of public space and assert that, well, you have no assumption of privacy there anyway.
	That's right.
	And as such, we are free to monitor, capture, and record every conversation you have in this area.
	Oh, but the police have their privacy.
	You can't tape them in many places, they maintain.
	Well, you know, Stingray, done by Harris Corporation, has been doing this type of tracking.
	You know, again, that's what it immediately brought to mind for me as well.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	Basically looking at your cell phone signal and inferring all this kind of metadata and geotracking that they're doing with that.
	The key thing that AI is doing, AI allows them to data mine and to correlate all this stuff together, to assimilate it in ways.
	In the past, they had this big haystack of stuff and they couldn't find the needles in it.
	Now they can find the needles in it and they can sort this out very, very quickly using AI.
	That's what it brings to the party.
	Not in terms of surveillance or eavesdropping necessarily, but in terms of making sense out of it and summarizing it for them.
	Yeah, that's when they built those data centers earlier because they knew this sort of thing was coming down the pipeline.
	We'll just hold on to it for now.
	Yeah, that's right.
	When you think of it, it's not an increase or an improvement in the quality of the microphones and radar that they're using.
	It's just a matter of being able to take all that little bits of data that they couldn't decipher before, and now they can parse it and listen to your calls.
	That's right.
	That same leveraged technology can be used in a lot of ways.
	I remember back in the 1980s when we were trying to get a handle on some of the things that were happening at the state level.
	And we did a FOIA request and we got they just dumped this massive amount of data to us.
	It's almost like they flattened it all out.
	It had no structure or organization or whatever.
	It's like, here, go fish.
	Yeah, here's all your data now trying to make sense of it.
	And that's really what the AI does for them.
	The sad thing is, is that at the same time, they are increasing the range at which they can listen to us, the range at which they can watch us and all the rest of the stuff at the same time that they're increasing the ability to collate and to make sense out of all this stuff.
	It truly is a very concerning thing.
	And as I said before, when you look at people like Alex Scarp, that's what his corporation was about.
	That's why his corporation was funded by the CIA.
	It was Incutel that helped to push that out there.
	Many people, they love to talk about Peter Thiel, but they don't talk about the CIA and Incutel, the venture capital firm of the CIA that helped make all that stuff possible.
	And when you look at Alex Karp again, what a dangerously statist person he is.
	It truly is amazing to see the mind of the people behind all this stuff.
	There's going to be tons of quotes out of that book that are going to come up that are going to be there forever, just like the quotes that we've heard from Henry Kissinger.
	He's kind of taking his position, I guess.
	There's always one guy that's like that, at least one in any administration.
	They all have their advisor to the hand of the king, whatever you want to call it.
	Some guy that sits there and he's like, yes, my lord, you must do this.
	Yes.
	Yeah.
	Well, there's an article, Red or Blue, AI is coming for you.
	And that's kind of interesting.
	They point out one of the things that the jobs most likely to be displaced by AI, fit the profile of the college-educated elite who are backing all this stuff.
	This is also nothing new.
	I remember I've talked for over a decade about the survey that was done in South Korea where they looked at the threats to different jobs.
	And they found that while there'd be menial tasks, that you'd have 40 to 50% of the jobs lost with AI and robotics, for white-collar positions like lawyers and doctors, they put that at 70% at the highest rate.
	Considering every doctor I've ever been to has basically just read a computer printout.
	Yeah.
	I look at the table.
	Yeah.
	Hmm, what does this mean?
	Oh, this is what it means.
	Yeah, a computer can do that for you real easy.
	Yeah, let's put in the symptoms and then we'll recommend which Pfizer drug you're supposed to get.
	That's exactly it.
	So, yeah, you know, that's the key thing.
	It's like red or blue, AI is coming for you.
	Well, that kind of rhymes, you know, like roses are red and violets are blue.
	Anyway, we need to realize that red or blue, a totalitarian police state, is also coming for you.
	And so all these, it's not just AI, but it's the kind of moves that Trump is doing in Washington, D.C. or the things like that.
	Whenever you, because of your tribalism, whenever you excuse your guy or your gal doing this or that, just understand that the other team is now going to use this new precedent to come after you given a certain amount of time.
	That's what's so depressing about watching these MAGA people who have never paid attention to politics in their life before Donald Trump came along, and they don't realize the bigger picture here.
	That's one of the things about leftists is they're more than willing to allow an authoritarian state to come up on the right because they know eventually they'll get their turn to utilize it.
	They're mostly okay with it.
	We're already out of time.
	That went by very, very quickly.
	Time flies.
	Yes, it really does.
	Thank you all for joining us.
	Thank you for your support and your prayers.
	And we have a comment here from Guard about the red light therapy.
	He said, the politicians want us to take the gaslight therapy.
	That's right.
	That's good.
	They're constantly doing the gaslight.
	Thank you, Guard.
	Liberty Conspiracy people, check them out this evening every Monday through Friday.
	Thank you for joining us.
	Have a good day.
	The Common Man.
	They created Common Core to dumb down our children.
	They created Common Pasts to track and control us.
	Their Commons project to make sure the commoners own nothing and the communist future.
	They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary.
	But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God.
	That is what we have in common.
	That is what they want to take away.
	Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation.
	They desire to know everything about us while they hide everything from us.
	It's time to turn that around and expose what they want to hide.
	Please share the information and links you'll find at thedavidnikeshow.com.
	Thank you for listening.
	Thank you for sharing.
	If you can't support us financially, please keep us in your prayers.
