	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 the 14th of October.
	Year of our Lord 2025.
	Well, today we're going to take another look at the Trump insurrection.
	Of course, in uh California, we have some new gun control legislation.
	What a surprise.
	And uh yet uh it's going to be interesting to see how the Supreme Court handles this.
	Because one of the things that they have said is uh that uh commonly used firearms are protected.
	Well, they're going after the number one firearm, and that's the Glock.
	Of course, that phrase is not in the second amendment.
	Is it and that was added interestingly enough by Anton Scalia, the so-called originalist.
	So we're going to see how this works out, but there's also some very fascinating news about Cutter that we didn't get to yesterday as well, and how that interfaces with the Trump family and the pushback by many people within MAGA.
	So now they've got yet another issue that they're at odds with Trump.
	Not the vaccine, not the pandemic, but one by one they're starting to see who this guy is.
	We'll be right back.
	Stay with us.
	Well, in Portland, they've had a protest, which you wouldn't have a protest like this, I guess, except in Portland or maybe Austin.
	We have nude cyclists joining the anti-ice protests As it's raining in Portland.
	And I guess they're protesting naked tyranny.
	Did you think that's um I I guess uh if you're if your goal is to be as obnoxious as possible, I guess that works better than the crazy costumes, so they're wearing no costume at all is uh probably the uh anyway, the trading insults with counter protesters who s uh showed up to sing the Star Spangled Banner and carried a large banner of Charlie Kirk.
	There we go, it's our patron saint of the right now.
	Uh the protests have only intensified in recent days as the Trump administration doubles down on its portrayal of Portland as an urban dystopia controlled by far left radicals, a narrative denied by many locals and state and city officials.
	Well, I think that we would all agree that that's an accurate characterization.
	I would say that it is a radical left dystopia.
	I've been there.
	And uh yet the means does not justify the end.
	And you're not going to end that with military force or with police from the federal government.
	The problem with Portland is a spiritual one.
	It's a mental one, and you can't fix that.
	This is the way these people want to live.
	You just need to let them go their own way, but you don't want to destroy the Constitution.
	Trying to fix it.
	This is like nation building, as we've said before.
	Uh you can't put something there that's not there.
	Um the counter protesters, some of whom wore Trump branded garb, numbered in the dozens.
	They were flanked by American flags, an image of Charlie Kirk standing in front of a white cross with one arm raised and a fist.
	Is that what that is?
	I don't think that was really the fight, fight, fight thing.
	That was not his thing.
	It was like, prove me wrong.
	Let's have a discussion.
	Uh they They don't get it.
	They have reinvented Charlie Kirk in their own image, haven't they?
	Across the street, a phalanx of protesters opposed to administration's immigration policies, danced and jeered despite a Pacific Northwest downpour.
	The two sides yelled obscenities at each other through microphones.
	This is how beneficial these protests are.
	You know, you can go show up, and it reminds me of the Monty Python skit where the guy pays to have an argument, and he spends the whole time arguing about whether or not he's paid enough to have an argument.
	Federal agents stood watch from the roof of the federal building where they occasionally shot pepper balls into the peaceful crowd throughout the afternoon into the evening.
	And see, this is the other thing, too.
	I totally disagree with these people in Portland about everything.
	And yet, they have a constitutionally protected right to air their grievances, if not everything else.
	And so uh the uh the reality is is that if you're going to allow the federal government to overrule that and say, well, we don't care that um uh they have a constitutional right to redress their grievances, we're going to uh kick it off with force.
	We're gonna shoot these people with pepper balls and uh the rest of the stuff.
	We saw that at January 6th, and a lot of people thought that was reprehensible.
	How do we go over such a short period of time, and these people have completely had their memories wiped if they ever could remember anything?
	I've never seen anybody with such short-term memories and no ability to see trends either as the MAGA people.
	It's just amazing.
	All the stuff that was done to them, they're now cheering to make this a precedent that will be used by the next Hillary, by the next Obama, by the next Biden.
	Can't you people see this?
	It's just amazing to me.
	You know, I really dislike these um these uh uh protesters, but uh I really really dislike the shooters who are doing this.
	Um that's enough to make me want to protest, but uh not in the way that they are.
	Uh to be naked is to be as vulnerable as you can be, said one person.
	And that's what we're saying.
	We're not afraid.
	So that's how these people think.
	Well, really gets me is that says to be naked is to be as vulnerable as you can be, said Elise.
	A Portland resident who asked that her last name not be used due to privacy concerns.
	And it's just no sense of irony here.
	You think the irony would have killed her right on the spot.
	That's good, Joseph.
	Yeah, I missed that.
	Uh ICE protesters saying the life is your mic's not on, Lance.
	Yeah.
	Go ahead.
	What'd you have to say?
	The wisest man at the nudest speech hides not his body but his face.
	Yeah.
	Uh anti-ICE protesters have called for the immigration facility to be shut down.
	An idea the city appears to be considering.
	Last month, city officials warned the building's owner that ICE might be violating its conditional use permit by holding detainees longer than it was agreed.
	The U.S. uh General Services Administration has operated the facility since 2011 as a processing center where immigration officials can check in with asylum seekers and immigrants.
	According to the permit, the federal government cannot hold detainees there for more than twelve hours.
	Mayor Keith Wilson said the agreement has been repeatedly broken between October 1, 2024, last year, uh when Biden was there, and July 27th.
	So they said uh ICE made clear these detention limitation commitments to our community, and we believe they broke those policies more than two dozen times.
	I'm proud of our team for conducting a thorough, thoughtful investigation.
	So that's going to be the technicality in which they want to try to move to close this ICE facility.
	And again, uh my orientation is I'm all about local control.
	I'm all about division of power.
	I'm all about state and local control versus centralizing everything under the federal government.
	number one.
	Number two, the Constitution.
	We have to have a standard.
	We have to have an objective standard.
	And the government, especially, the federal government, especially the president, needs to be held to that standard.
	Needs to be subjected to that standard.
	So Trump, as we're looking at uh his idea of what law is, it's a weapon to be wielded by him against his personal enemies.
	He again has urged Pam Bondi to take action.
	And this I talked about briefly yesterday.
	I thought it was worth going back to look at it again because WND, uh, excuse me, WorldNet Daily, uh, talks about this and is absolutely completely skips over the the uh complaint that Trump has.
	He says it was Biden's FBI, and we've got to do something.
	Uh January the 6th, 2021, Trump is still president for another couple of weeks.
	And uh he as well as Trump media like W and D pretend that he wasn't president.
	They pretend that it was Biden who was president.
	And when you look at the Biden FBI agents, who they accuse, I think rightfully so, of being agent provocateurs and then of abusing the law.
	Uh why are they uh abusing their law, legal authority right now?
	And why are they acting as agent provocators?
	And they are.
	If they sit on a building and they start shooting pepper balls at people who are peaceful, uh like that guy who was uh a priest and uh he wasn't a priest, he was a pastor, he's a Presbyterian pastor.
	Uh incredibly liberal, and he's basically killed the church that he took over there with his abortion and LGBT support.
	But uh he was not doing in terms of the political aspects there.
	He was not doing anything.
	He was not even yelling insults at the people.
	And they shot him in the face with a pepper ball.
	And uh I I just have a real problem with the people on the right who cheer that.
	Because it's gonna happen to them.
	And they like to say FAFO.
	Well, you know, same thing applies to you when you support the government doing whatever it wishes without the restraint of the law.
	You're gonna FAFO yourself.
	So Trump called out Pam Bondi because she's not acting to do something about these 274 FBI agents that were with the Capitol crowd on January the 6th.
	And uh WD won't point out that Biden uh was the pre w uh was not president, that uh Trump was president at that point in time.
	They go along with a farce.
	He says, all uppercase, the Biden FBI placed 274 agents into the crowd on January the 6th.
	And again, as he was pushing people to this, as he was fleecing them of their money and pushing them to this pointless protest.
	That's the whole thing was pointless.
	That's why I said on December the 14th, I said it's pointless at this point, because they have failed to get a hearing, they failed to make their case to the state legislatures.
	There were four state legislatures that were controlled by Republicans, where there was a razor-then margin.
	They could have made the case if they thought there was fraud.
	They could have gotten a second set of electors officially sent by that state rather than just one set of electors from each state.
	So I said there's really no point in it.
	And there's no point in Alex Jones' stop the steal except to make money.
	So I got fired.
	But uh I truly believe that, and I would do it again.
	Chris Way, uh Chris Ray, lied to the American public, said Jim Hoff, the gateway pundit.
	He set up the good American Patriots who attended January the 6th protest.
	Well, um, you might want to take a look, Jim, at uh Trump himself.
	He's the one who set people up.
	He more than anybody.
	And Alex Jones, the stop the steal.
	The two of them sent people there.
	You can get angry at the FBI and you can get angry at what Biden did after the fact and how he abused uh his authority.
	And you can get angry at Ray Epps and all the rest of the stuff, but the people who sent them there were Alex Jones and Donald Trump, and they made millions off of people.
	In the case of Trump, hundreds of millions off of the supporters that they put in jeopardy.
	And then Trump left them twisting in the wind while he pardoned the uh white collar criminals that were friends of Jared Kushner, some of the biggest white color criminals ever.
	So uh he previously called out Pam Bondi as quote, all talk and no action, unquote, over the progress on investigations into FBI director James Comey, Adam Shift, and Letitia James.
	So now she has moved to enforce his um his personal vendettas.
	But just notice that this is really for your consumption.
	If you're president, do you really communicate with your attorney general via social media posts?
	Seriously, well I I didn't see I didn't check my feed yesterday or something, right?
	No, you're gonna talk to them, right?
	In person.
	So this is for you this is not for her.
	Uh Pam, I have reviewed over thirty statements and posts saying essentially the same old story as last time.
	All talk no action.
	Nothing is being done.
	What about Comey, Adam Shifty Schiff and Letitia?
	They're all guilty.
	You need to get them locked up.
	And so that's what he's doing with this as well.
	Well meanwhile Bondi says that federal deployment to Memphis where they're not being fought by the Democrat governor that's there, or mayor that's there, they have racked up over five hundred arrests and they're very proud of the fact that they have seized a hundred and forty four illegal guns.
	Let me ask you under the Second Amendment, Travis, what guns are illegal under the Second Amendment?
	I've yet to find one.
	Yeah, none, none.
	There's no such thing if you pay attention to the Constitution, our Attorney General Pam Bondi, there is no such thing as an illegal gun.
	But of course uh Trump touts this as a victory because Trump himself is nothing but a New York City Democrat.
	He has pushed gun control.
	He's established new precedents for gun control.
	Gun control done by the president with executive orders by the uh bureaucracy underneath him not even by the Congress violating the Constitution but by the president and his bureaucracy.
	And so yet again he's a good guns just illegal politicians.
	That's right that's good.
	That's good we should make a t-shirt of that that's really good.
	Bondi said we've been making arrests left and right and we've succeeded 144 illegal guns just in the short time that we've been in Memphis doesn't take long to violate the Constitution.
	It's a new issue said Trump and it's called crime we stop crime and they allow crime.
	They want crime yeah it is a new issue for the federal government to address crime because it's not in the Constitution for them to do that whatsoever.
	We've been saying this for the longest time all the FBI agents that you're so upset about that got involved in all these things uh against people these plots and conspiracies and setting people up covering up for the government as well as um occasionally doing an investigation that's there because uh part of it is because it began as a violation of the Constitution and it remains a violation of the Constitution and they've used this in the most insidious ways.
	But what do you expect when you start with a by ignoring the law what do you think the FBI is going to do after that and so it is a new issue because we never did want the federalization of the police and this is what Trump is doing.
	And I'm absolutely amazed at just how little is being said by conservatives about this.
	I mean even the John Burke Society they waited a while before they said anything about it and then they did an excellent article on it and since then I haven't seen anything else about it.
	They've moved on to other issues.
	They were the ones who 60 years ago were saying support your local sheriff let's not federalize law enforcement this is the essence of what they were always fighting and yet they don't care.
	They're just going to look the other direction.
	So that brings us to the gun issue in California.
	A second amendment showdown California bans Glock handguns and a major challenge to the Second Amendment this is new scum new scam nuisance whatever you want to call him Gavin uh signed the long anticipated responsible gun manufacturing act a law that may now trigger a major challenge under the Second Amendment.
	The law banned the Glock semi automatic handguns that are favorite of American gun owners including supposedly Lala Harris and so um when she had to uh build up her creds uh she claimed that she had a Glock of course, many of us did not believe that.
	Just like uh when she was uh attorney general of California, she was locked locking up marijuana users left and right, and then she claimed, yeah.
	When I was in college, I was doing blah blah blah and smoking joints and listening to uh a group that um didn't exist when she was in college.
	So I think it was public enemy or maybe NWA.
	I don't know, yeah.
	Anyway, well, maybe she meant her bodyguard carries a glock.
	That's right.
	Uh that's these people have bodyguards that don't need guns.
	One of the most ambitious gun bans since the Supreme Court ruled in the District of Columbia versus Heller that gun ownership is an individual right.
	So this may actually backfire against California, because certainly the Heller decision backfired against uh Washington, D.C. And that Heller case, if you recall, they had an off-duty cop, it was Heller, and they came after him.
	Uh actually he was fighting them because he wanted to be able to carry his weapon when he was off duty.
	They said he couldn't do it.
	And so he took it to the Supreme Court, and the Supreme Court recognized the fact that what everybody knows, and that is that the Bill of Rights is about individual rights.
	It's not about collective rights.
	You know, the Ninth and Tenth Amendment talk about the division of power and uh are there to keep the federal government from consolidating power.
	I mean, Madison looked at the Constitution and said, Well, I think they're gonna do things like you know, use the Commerce Clause or the General Welfare Clause to give themselves a blank check to do anything they want.
	And we don't want that.
	So the Ninth and Tenth Amendment are there to restrain the federal government and to uh demark lines of authority and power.
	But the other eight are all about individual rights.
	They're all about individual rights.
	And uh so it was an absurd position that had been taken by the Supreme Court for the longest time, saying that the Second Amendment wasn't about individual rights.
	As a matter of fact, I remember having uh, you know, Andy, I won't I won't mention his last name, but uh Andy at the video stores.
	We had a a kid who we met him because he was running from the police because he's skateboarding at the uh shopping center.
	I said, come on, come in here, we'll I, you know.
	So anyway, we became friends, and he was a good kid.
	He was number two in his class.
	He was a soliditarian in his class.
	Uh, but he would argue with me about the Second Amendment and uh say, no, that was written for the National Guard.
	I said you realize National Guard didn't exist, then the National Guard is not the militia and all the rest of the stuff.
	But that's how they went down this path, and that's what they that's the legal fiction that they created to say that the Second Amendment was not an individual right, but it is patently obvious to everyone.
	And finally, the uh Supreme Court admitted the obvious because of the Heller decision.
	Antonin Scalia stressed that the Second Amendment protects all types of firearms, quote, in common use at the time, unquote, for lawful purposes such as self-defense.
	Well, the um the phrase in common use of the time, which they have so focused on, is uh not in the text.
	He made this up.
	He threw that in.
	And so now this has become the point of contention.
	Well, was this in common use of the time?
	And uh, and yet if you look at this, they want to go after the most commonly used guns that are out there, not just the AR-15, but now the Glock, which is this um article from Zero Hedge points out.
	The uh Glock is um the AR-15 is estimated uh one in 20 Americans own an AR-15, but the Glock is even more popular.
	In 2021 alone, they produced 581,000 handguns, actually 582,000 if you round up.
	And uh in 2022, 465,000.
	So they're doing about a half a million a year.
	Uh it is also the weapon of choice for an estimated over 65% of law enforcement agencies.
	La La Harris then bragged that she had a Glock.
	Her Cherished companion.
	It became apparent that she was losing men generally in the campaign, made a ham-handed effort to reinvent Harris.
	In a softball interview with Oprah, she declared that she is a gun owner and said, if somebody breaks into my house, they're getting shot.
	When liberals like CVS's Bill Whitaker expressed shock at her new gun toting persona on the campaign trail, he asked if she actually fired it.
	She did her best rooster cogburn, and she said, Well, a gun that ain't loaded ain't no good for nothing.
	Uh and uh since she's shooting blanks too, she ain't no good for nothing either, is she?
	That also still doesn't answer that as a non-sequitur.
	That doesn't answer the question.
	No, that's right.
	And the and the reality is that when she was attorney general in California, she fired an uh filed an amicus brief to say that the District of Columbia could prohibit an off-duty cop from carrying a gun for his own protection.
	So she was in support of the handgun ban and DC that was overturned by the Supreme Court in Heller.
	It's truly amazing how dumb Kamala Harris is.
	I think she may be the dumbest candidate we have yet seen.
	I saw a clip.
	I I didn't put it in the deck, but I thought it was funny.
	She was somewhere and she was kind of walking around and making statements, and somebody said she is falling down drunk, and boy, it certainly did seem like it.
	So I don't know how much of it is stupidity and how much of it is the fact that she seems to be constantly drunk.
	Column A, column B. You know, maybe they're both feeding off each other.
	I love how with all these major politicians we have to wonder.
	So is he senile?
	Uh is she an alcoholic?
	What's going on with these people?
	Are they stupid or are they evil and controlled by the globalists?
	Yeah, that's exactly right.
	Answer all of the above.
	That's right.
	Gun control advocates have been chipping away at the concept of in common use at the time by arguing that a variety of popular weapons like the AR-15 cannot be considered in common use at the time of the ratification of the uh Second Amendment.
	So, yeah, those guns, those guns didn't exist there.
	So um, so they're not allowed for you to have a modern gun.
	Um got to go back to muzzle loaders and uh uh Scalia, however, joined Justice Clarence Thomas in 2015 in the dissent.
	Thomas had written, quote, several courts of appeal have upheld categorical bans on firearms that millions of Americans commonly own for lawful purposes, and such rulings are non-compliance with our Second Amendment precedence, and that's the problem.
	You know, even people like Clarence Thomas, who I think is the best one on the Supreme Court, um, and uh they just don't take the Constitution as written.
	And they believe that they're setting precedents that have the effect of law.
	I think that's a very dangerous idea because we've had the uh liberals have for the longest time treated the Constitution as a living document, quote unquote.
	And by that they mean that they can uh change it constantly without truly amending it according to what the Constitution says.
	There is a process for amending the Constitution.
	They ignore that and decide to do it their own way.
	So that's all just um uh a misdirection.
	There's uh you reminded me of a very famous copypasta that floats around the internet.
	It's uh making fun of the well, the founding fathers only intended you to use the weapons of their time.
	And I pulled up and says, own a musket for home defense, since that's what the founding fathers intended.
	Four ruffians break into my house.
	What the devil?
	As I grab my powdered wig and Kentucky rifle, blow a golf ball sized hole through the first man, he's dead on the spot.
	Draw my pistol on the second man, miss him entirely because it's smooth board, nails the neighbor's dog.
	I have to resort to the cannon mounted at the top of the stairs loaded with grape shot.
	Tally ho lads.
	The grape shot shreds two men in the blast, and the sound and extra shrapnel set off car alarms.
	Vic's Bannett in charge of the last terrified Rap Scallion.
	He bleeds out waiting on the police to arrive since triangular bayonet wounds are impossible to stitch up.
	Just as the founding fathers intended.
	That's right.
	And that's the way you handle the SWAT team, right?
	You have a cannon with a grape shot.
	Well, uh, there's another aspect to this.
	The Democrats have been pushing really hard against glauck switches, which are already illegal.
	Uh they can be attached to the rear of a glock slide to make the pistol shoot fully automatic.
	Such switches are all already unlawful.
	They're now going after the gun itself, confirming that the objective of these early moves were to ban the semi-automatic weapons themselves.
	As a matter of fact, the text of the bill says a machine gun convertible pistol as any semi-automatic with a cruciform trigger bar that can readily be converted by hand or with common household tools into a machine gun by the installation or attachment of a pistol converter as specified.
	And pistol converter as any device or instrument that when installed in or attached to the rear of the slide of a semi-automatic pistol, replaces the back plate and interferes with the trigger mechanism, thereby enables the pistol to shoot automatically more than one shot by single function of the trigger.
	Well, the reality is is that if you completely redesign any gun, you can do all kinds of things to it, but is the gun as it is, is not fully automatic.
	And this has always been a confusing point for liberals.
	They don't understand the difference between semi-automatic and automatic.
	It's a fully semi-automatic right.
	I don't think it's ever really been clear in their minds what the difference is.
	Semi-automatic, meaning, of course, that you have to pull the trigger each time.
	Uh the legislation makes repeated reference to any weapon that can be equipped with a pistol converter.
	Thus the Glock switches are unlawful.
	Criminals still use them.
	Thus the gun itself falls under the category as a machine gun convertible weapon.
	The Supreme Court has fueled these laws by repeatedly turning down reviews of bans.
	States like Illinois outlawed some of the most commonly used rifles and magazines in America.
	And uh so they said um perhaps now uh the Supreme Court will hear it.
	Ca uh Kavanaugh has said the court is likely to grant cert in the next term or two to some gun issues.
	This would be the one to start on.
	Absolutely.
	Well, before we take a break, uh, we've got a couple of uh comments here.
	Yes, we do.
	KWD68 says I pointed out the cutter base we are allowing to be built here to a MAGA.
	They said that's the plan.
	That's right.
	Trust it.
	Yeah trust our dear leader.
	It's uh it's amazing when you look at all of the different aspects of cutter and the Trump family, and what Trump has said in the past about Cutter.
	Truly is amazing.
	But uh they were they were his go-to people to make this deal work, evidently.
	Uh you know, they were harboring Hamas.
	And I said from the very beginning, I said, if you want to get the leadership of Hamas, they're not in Gaza.
	They're in uh Qatar.
	And eventually the uh uh Israelis did go there and get them, and uh but uh you know, for two years they killed civilians wantonly.
	Atomic Dog says I saw a video of the naked protesters.
	Uh oof.
	It's been a rough year for videos.
	I think the goal was to have ice be stricken blind by their corpulent naked bodies.
	That's right.
	You can't arrest what you can't see.
	KWD 68.
	That woman is all about her privates.
	Privacy.
	Citizen of Americaca.
	So we got some ghetto rat put a full auto switch on his Glock.
	Now that pistol is illegal?
	I don't think so.
	You know how many law enforcement officers carry Glock 40 caliber?
	Not as many law enforcement officers carry 40 anymore.
	With the improvements in ballistics technology, nine millimeter has basically bridged the gap into what 40 used to be.
	And as such, since it's much more common caliber, they've switched back to nine mil from what I've read and seen.
	Well, I'll defer to your expertise on this.
	40 used to be a lot more popular because it was a good uh it had a little bit of extra power on nine mil and more stopping power.
	But now nine mils uh just as good.
	From what I've heard.
	I'm not an expert, but I do like to do a little bit of research here and there.
	Yeah.
	Put the switch on the Glock.
	Real Octo spook.
	If these state governors and mayors were not criminals, this would not have to be done.
	My AR-15s go full auto with a simple trigger drop-in module, and then in a minute or two, this all has nothing to do with anything other than criminals and government wanting the second amendment removed.
	Yep.
	Yeah, the problem I have is that the presidency has gone full automatic.
	That's whatever he wishes.
	Get down, he's got the pen!
	so is the government.
	I mean, they just completely ignore the Constitution they swore to uphold as a condition of their authority.
	So they're still in office, they still have power to use against us, but they have no legitimate authority.
	That's the key when you look at this, because uh as a Christian, we are to obey legitimate authority.
	That's not our government.
	Denver Atway says Glock Toberfest.
	Yeah, that's right.
	Zog Savacas here is what is needed in the Constitution.
	Any weapon availed by a government against its people shall be availed of its people.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	You would think that shall not be in front infringed would be simple enough.
	It takes a real genius to twist it into something it isn't.
	This is why I haven't.
	The Supreme Court does not sit in judgment of the Constitution.
	That's right.
	They're not above the Constitution.
	They're not above the Constitution.
	They haven't taken oath to it as well.
	They've somehow taken on this role of, oh, we're the arbiters.
	And if we say something is unconstitutional, we'll get to around to twisting our words into something else.
	Well, whenever they say they're going to interpret the Constitution, it's like it's not written in another language.
	It's a good thing.
	That's one of the reasons why we don't want to have two different languages as official languages, right?
	Because uh you don't want their because our American government has already done that in Panama.
	They came up with a memorandum of understanding, and the Spanish version for the people in Panama is completely different than the one that they filed as uh in English.
	You don't want to be able to play that kind of game.
	But unfortunately, that's kind of what the Supreme Court says.
	We have the English version of the Constitution that you and I can read, and then we have the version that's in the head of the Supreme Court, which we can't read.
	We try to read the tea leaves on that, but we can't.
	Impossible to parse.
	Bronx Stomper 111.
	Who would have ever thought that shall not be infringed would be hard to understand?
	That's what I'm saying.
	It takes a real genius to twist it into something.
	Yeah, and that means around the edges, right?
	Gradually moving the boundary, yeah, uh, you know, infringing on somebody's property rights.
	Uh that's really the the picture that you have there.
	Again, that's why you don't just blindly trust the Supreme Court.
	Their interpretation trust your own eyes.
	If you think you have a different interpretation of the Constitution the Supreme Court does, chances are you're right and they're wrong.
	They just have the power to do what they want.
	That's right.
	KWD-68, Biden was in office for COVID lockdowns, too.
	That's right.
	It was all that nasty Biden.
	He did it all.
	Officer, take him away.
	Trump burger, the gun companies will never stop selling to the cops.
	Just the public.
	Yeah.
	That's right.
	Well, you know, I think when you look at it uh uh again, Biden and Trump, both little puppets of the globalists, and they were there simply for PR purposes, the left-right march of tyranny.
	And uh you had uh Ben Garrison absolutely got that right.
	Well, we're gonna take a quick break, folks, and we'll be right back.
	Stay with us.
	You're listening to the David Knight Show.

	All right, welcome back.
	Uh let's take a look at some of the things that um well Trump has said about Cutter, and of course.
	In the past, in 2017, uh Trump uh made it very clear uh what he thought about Cutter, and uh let's see, I've got it here in the text.
	There we go.
	Oh, wait, that's his golf course.
	nation of Qatar, unfortunately, has historically been a funder of terrorism at a very high level.
	And in the wake of that conference, nations came together and spoke to me about confronting Qatar over its behavior.
	So we had a decision to make.
	Do we take the easy road or do we finally take a hard but necessary action?
	We have to stop the funding of terrorism.
	I decided, along with Secretary of State, Rex Tillerson, our great generals and military people.
	The time had come to call on Qatar to end its funding.
	They have to end that fund.
	Except what they were doing was harboring the people of Hamas, which uh uh evidently he was against.
	But of course, all that was before they made the deal for the golf course and Trump, a new Trump golf course, five and a half billion dollar beachside project announced for Qatar.
	They have also uh given them access to uh military US military jets, and a part of that is a base in the United States, and that has been a bridge too far for several on the right.
	Laura Loomer, who had no problem with Trump doing lockdowns, mass murder injections, uh, and uh assassinations of foreign leaders, bombing countries without any declaration of war, doing gun control by executive order, all of that.
	She had no problem with it.
	But you put a military base of some Arabs in the United States, and she has a big problem with it.
	I don't know.
	Laura Loomer's worked very very hard to call herself Jewish, and if the Muslims take over, she's gonna have problems.
	Yeah, she's not Jewish.
	She's as Jewish as uh that guy, uh what's the guy in New York?
	Oh, Santos, Santos.
	She's as Jewish as George Santos, she's Jewish-ish.
	She's aspirationally Jewish, like uh Beto O'Rourke was aspirationally Hispanic.
	Play the uh play the card there.
	But uh anyway, the um the reality is is that bases like that have been done for other countries so they can train on these very complicated weapons systems.
	But it begs a question, it's not so much the base as it begs the question why are we giving this uh terrorist uh th th this country that harbors terrorists like Hamas, why are we giving them access to state of the art uh jets?
	That's the bigger issue.
	Well, I think the issue is is that you've got a golf course that's there.
	You also have Qatar that uh intervened for Trump to make this deal go through, and that was a key thing for him.
	He wanted to look good, so he's willing to give jets to terrorists in order to look like a peace president.
	So get the peace prize because I gave state of the art jets to a terrorist nation.
	There you go.
	This is another one of those things where I'm sure some people be, oh, but you were talking you you're not for Israel in Gaza, and now you're complaining about Hamas.
	Yeah, there aren't any good actors in this scenario.
	They both have their problems.
	It is simply that Israel has orders of magnitude more firepower, and they are able to at will just demolish Gaza if they wish.
	They have been doing so.
	That's right.
	That's right, absolutely.
	Well, Mr. Peace Prize himself is now talking about uh tomahawk missiles to Ukraine, and uh they're gonna throw some tomahawks at him, the tomahawk shop.
	Uh Trump is considering sending long-range tomahawk cruise missiles to Ukraine, asked by reporters in Air Force One whether he would provide Kiev with Tomahawks, he said, Well, we'll see.
	I may.
	Again, just what mood he's in on a given day, just like the tacos, you know, the Trump tacos.
	So now we're gonna do uh the uh tomahawks and uh always chicken out type of thing, as opposed to terrorists.
	He's gonna have that same kind of on again, off again issue With the Tomahawks, and why should that be a unilateral autocratic decision by the president?
	Shouldn't Congress have something to say about that?
	Well, of course, Congress, as long as the Republicans have a majority, is not going to do anything other than what Trump says, because that's what Squeaker Mouse Johnson does.
	He does whatever Trump tells him to do.
	So they're not going to push back on Trump at all.
	So it will be his unilateral decision as to whether or not he wants to get closer to provoking World War III.
	We'll see.
	I may.
	He says it would be a new step of aggression.
	And he said, Zalinsky said he'll meet with uh Trump and Washington on Friday for talks that'll include the Tomahawks.
	Trump's attitude to Russia has hardened in recent months as he's become impatient with Putin's lack of cooperation in reaching a ceasefire deal with Kiev.
	I might tell them, that is Russia, that if the war is not settled, that we may very well send Tomahawks to Kiev.
	We may not, but we may do it.
	See Trump always chickens out, one way or the other.
	This is why I say his way of negotiating is uh just incoherent, and it's the kind of thing that gets us into really big wars.
	Uh when you people don't know what's going on in terms of uh war, uh that is the same kind of chaos and uncertainty that he's inflicting on economic markets and on our small and medium-sized businesses.
	When he starts doing that with something as important as war, that could easily set off World War III.
	He's an idiot and a tyrant.
	In September, Peskov has dismissed the threat of Tomahawks, saying they wouldn't be able to change the dynamic of the war.
	And remember when we talked about that, the issue is we don't have that many, and they've only got a limited amount that they can uh do each year.
	And uh so you know, they could quickly exhaust, they could be very damaging to start with, but they would quickly exhaust their supply.
	It wouldn't be a sufficient quantity of them to really make a difference.
	However, in his comments on Sunday, Peshkov noted that if the Tomahawks were launched at Russia, Moscow would not be able to tell whether they were carrying nuclear warheads.
	Former Russian president Dmitry Medvedev then doubled down on this on these comments.
	He said, How should Russia respond exactly?
	He said, the delivery of these missiles could end very badly for everyone.
	And first of all, for Trump himself.
	Uh Medvedev and Trump have sparred online before.
	It was comments by Medvedev in August that led Trump to say that he had ordered two nuclear submarines to move closer to Russia.
	This is what I mean.
	This is the kind of you know schoolyard bullying tactics that are idiotic.
	Yeah, you you made some comments on Twitter?
	Well, I'm gonna move some nuclear carriers close to Russia.
	You know, how how when do where does this start?
	Uh and when does it stop?
	Since the start of Russia's invasion of 2022, Zelensky has made multiple requests for long-range missiles as it weighs striking Russian cities from the front lines of the grinding conflict.
	Ukrainian cities, including Kiev, have repeatedly come under heavy Russian bombardment with drones and missiles.
	Russia has particularly targeted Ukraine's energy infrastructure as winter approaches, causing widespread power cuts.
	Last month, Trump's special envoy to Ukraine, Keith Kellogg, suggested the president had authorized strikes deep into Russian territory, telling Fox News there's no such thing as sanctuaries from attacks in the Russian Ukraine war.
	Well, does that also apply to the USA?
	You know, we think that uh we're not gonna be touched by any of this stuff.
	And of course, they don't have to fire a nuclear missile at the United States to inflict a great deal of harm.
	Our very, very fragile infrastructure, is an open target for anyone who wants to mess with the U.S., and that includes uh Russia, China, even the drug cartels that Trump wants to pick a fight with, the Venezuelans.
	Uh it's a very, very vulnerable system.
	We have a porous border.
	Anybody could do this as a terrorist act.
	And uh so he's pushing us into very dangerous territory.
	As a matter of fact, that's another reason to pay attention to Jack Lawson's book, The Civil Defense Manual at Jacklauson Books dot com.
	Uh, because again, uh everything that's being done is uh making our fragile infrastructure even worse.
	Well, you're talking about the climate MacGuffin, where they're shutting down reliable, affordable power, or we're talking about AI, where they're going to have such large demands that the burden of building out the infrastructure is going to fall on you and I, but of course the number one priority for power will be them.
	Uh and then at the same time we add this other leg of this, which is that we're picking fights with all these different people when we have such a vulnerable infrastructure, so easily to take it down.
	So again, uh there's a storm coming.
	Uh it was Q and R that used to like to say that, but uh actually the guy who's starting the storm is their own guy.
	So yeah, the storm is coming.
	What was that thing that was like WWG one something?
	I don't know.
	Oh, where we go one, we go all or something.
	I have no idea what it ever meant.
	I just see them spamming this in all the chat.
	Storm is coming, that one, uh trust the plan.
	Just meaningless slogans for vacuous empty people.
	They plagiarized Alexander Dumont, his three musketeers.
	He should sue.
	That's right.
	Uh yeah, where we go one, we go all.
	It was like all for one, one for all was what he said.
	It was a little bit more concise, right?
	In that case, you should be able to get them all in one lawsuit.
	Yeah.
	American intelligence has been shared with uh Kiev has enabled strikes on important Russian energy assets, including oil refineries, far beyond the front line, according to multiple Ukrainian and US officials familiar with the campaign.
	And you think you deserve the peace prize?
	What an idiot this guy is.
	The previously unreported support has intensified since midsummer and has been crucial in helping Ukraine carry out attacks that Biden's White House discouraged.
	Kiev's strikes have driven up energy prices in Russia and have prompted Moscow to cut diesel exports and to import fuel.
	Trump has deepened his support for Ukraine as his frustration with Russia has grown.
	Uh the US intelligence uh agency helps Kiev shape route planning, uh altitude, timing, and mission decisions, enabling Ukraine's long-range one-way attack drones to evade Russian air defenses, said officials familiar with the matter.
	And of course it's US intelligence that gets us involved in one war after the other that we lose, though we wind up making the situation much worse than it was before we got involved.
	Uh these three people uh familiar with the operation said that Washington was closely involved in all stages of planning, of course.
	A U.S. officials said Ukraine selected the targets for long range strikes.
	Washington then provided intelligence on the site's vulnerabilities.
	But others involved and briefed on the operation said the US had also set out target priorities for Ukrainians.
	One of them described Kiev's drone force as an instrument for Washington to undermine Russian economy and to push Putin toward a settlement.
	Trump has been open about his disappointment with Putin since he rolled out the red carpet for his Russian counterpart and Alaska summit that made little tangible progress.
	Uh this is a factor in Trump's shift in support of deeper strikes, said the people.
	Well, I guess the question is if you've got somebody who comes to you and says that he wants to broker a peace deal while he's arming the other side and helping them to shoot missiles into your country.
	Would you really trust somebody like that?
	Putin's not a fool.
	You'd have to be an absolute fool to trust somebody who is a duplicitous dealer like Trump.
	Uh Washington has long shared intelligence with Kiev to assist in attacks on Russian military targets, and to provide advanced warning of Russian mil missile and drone strikes.
	The Biden administration approved strikes with U.S. High Mars and attackums, I guess uh ATACMS.
	I guess I would pronounce that as attackums.
	Um inside the Russian region bordering Ukraine after North Korea deployed troops there to bolster Moscow's forces.
	The US has not acknowledged a direct role in the Ukraine's strikes on Russian energy facilities.
	Uh however, you know, going back long before Russia invaded Ukraine, you had Lindsey Graham and uh John McCain go there.
	I played the clip before for you, where Lindsay Graham said to the Ukrainians that were assembled, uh next year we're gonna go into into Russia, we're gonna get Putin.
	Yeah, why would you deal with a country like that?
	And uh does he understand what's going on?
	Does Putin understand what's going on?
	Of course he does.
	The growing operational support from the Trump administration starkly contrasts with the earlier in the U.S. president's second term, when he briefly halted intelligence sharing and military aid to Kiev to pressure it into talks with Moscow.
	Zelensky said the Ukraine was working with U.S. intelligence primarily to defend ourselves.
	And Ukraine's recent success in deep strikes is mostly because of technological upgrades to drones, increased domestic production, which has allowed Kiev to launch more at once.
	Our drones, our drone missiles and some missiles are getting better.
	We have more uses and we have greater production, he said.
	Well, White House officials said the war never would have happened under a Trump presidency.
	Well, yeah, fine.
	But uh Trump can't stop it.
	Isn't it kind of interesting that just like inflation?
	Wars take on a life of their own.
	It's very easy for a government to start inflation.
	But once it happens, you can't pull it back in.
	It's very easy for the government to start a war that it can't stop.
	And uh that is exactly what is being done on both fronts by this Trump administration.
	Yeah.
	Whether you generate the hate falsely at the beginning, once a country has been engaged in a war with another country, the hate becomes real because you've seen you know your best friend, your brother, who knows who die at their hands.
	And they've seen the same exact thing.
	Yeah, it's bad enough when it's soldiers that's happening to that galvanizes you.
	But when they start killing attacking civilians and you start killing children and you're digging children out of the rubble, uh then it really gets deep.
	That's why it's so difficult to stop these things after they get kicked off like that.
	Well, we got some comments, once you grab those.
	That's right.
	Pattywax.
	As the deep state says, all we have to do is wait out max eight years and another sucker comes into power.
	That's right.
	The true power behind the throne is bureaucracy.
	Not that Trump isn't uh doing everything they want currently.
	Yeah.
	He's a real good sucker.
	Real Jason Barker, there are many frames by the manufacturers that use Glock slides.
	They will never track them all down.
	That's right.
	You'll always be able to get the Glock, put the gonzo on it.
	Bronx Stomper.
	Well, it's like any prohibition.
	You can't stop the alcohol, you can't stop the pot, you can't stop the opioids, you can't fill in the blank, right?
	Prohibition just doesn't work.
	They definitely won't be able to stop the 3D printers.
	Yeah.
	Bronx Stomper 111.
	All the P90 lowers and kids out there making up all those scary ghost guns, Jason.
	That's right.
	The P90, very spooky.
	Audi MRR, Justice Sotomayer proved that she was all in with the COVID agenda.
	The Supreme Court is clearly a compromise too.
	Yeah, there's not an element of our government that doesn't have at least infiltration.
	I would not be surprised if they were all in on it if you make it past a certain level.
	Tunnel Lorgan 337.
	Didn't the Supreme Court put Japanese Americans in internment camps in World War II?
	Mm-hmm.
	Yep.
	Yes.
	ISPEX.
	They also said that you can't uh exercise your religion freely in school, right?
	I don't believe a thing the Supreme Court says.
	They decided that they would determine when life begins and on and on.
	So they have been wrong on all of it.
	And they defined redefined marriage after uh, you know, it's been around for eternity, basic uh for all practical purposes since creation.
	And uh they decide they would redefine it.
	What arrogance.
	The constitution, things like what a woman is, these aren't difficult to determine when they have these big long rambling speeches to justify why they can't just say what a woman is.
	It's clear that they aren't, you know, applying common sense to the laws and trying to give you an honest uh take on it.
	That's right.
	And that that uh she was that way, Katanji Brown was that way going in.
	Yeah, she had the longest opening monologue of any Supreme Court justice Ever.
	Yeah.
	And it was by a long shot, too.
	Despite her having the uh I believe either the least impressive or one of the least impressive records for any judge, you know, that has ever been appointed to the Supreme Court, she felt the need to ramble and monologue longer than any of the other ones ever have.
	The judges only need one qualification.
	It doesn't matter how many times they've clerked for some Supreme Court justice, or how many different degrees and honors they've got.
	Do they believe and honor and respect the Constitution or not?
	That's the bottom line.
	And uh so, yeah, I would I would uh it's too bad that we didn't get to enter Napolitano on, but it would only be in one out of nine people.
	Yeah, there.
	So sadly.
	Yeah.
	We have Tunnel Lord, one three three seven.
	Oh, snap, Cutter is putting a base in Idaho.
	That's not good.
	Idaho's been trying to pass a domestic terrorist bill for the last five years.
	I wonder if they'll try to do a false flag in Idaho to get that bill passed.
	They're gonna take out our strategic potato reserve.
	Yeah.
	Who knows?
	Maybe it'll turn the base into a golf course for Trump after they leave.
	How thoughtful of them.
	Tunnel Lord continues, while on the top of the mountain, home base in Idaho, during a committee hearing where one of the commanders from the base were talking at the state legislator, he said they can remotely control jets from the base in Idaho.
	Oh, there we go.
	Yeah, we you know the interesting thing is we know that they could do that.
	When we look back at Operation Northwoods, uh that's what they were talking about doing at the time.
	And they've been able to remotely control planes to fly them forever.
	I mean, that was back in the early 60s.
	And uh so uh we didn't really see the uh remote controlled drones and things like that until after 9-11.
	But prior to that, how do you think they got all the uh pictures that they had of uh crashing commercial airlines to test them for safety and to see what happened?
	They would put crash test dummies in the airplanes and they would fly them and then crash them, and uh the uh you know, then take the footage that was uh and the cameras that always seemed to be able to survive.
	The joke is why don't you make the whole plane out of whatever it is that you make that camera case out of, and we'll be better off.
	But you know, they would do that.
	They were not there wasn't a pilot that flew that into the ground.
	Uh they were doing that remote control, but I don't know what happened.
	I clearly the planes, whether there were planes or whether the projections of planes or whatever, we've had a lot of different ideas about that.
	Uh I lean toward the idea of advanced uh explosives put on the building, even more so than directed energy weapons, but whatever happened.
	I think we can be certain that the government is lying to us.
	And because of the way they use it, I think they're the ones who did it.
	So wait, there's only one major carry of the old Glock over here, and that is the Australian police.
	Not as popular in Australia, or is there some specific reason are more people not allowed to buy it?
	I'm I know Australia has some fairly strict gun laws, so I'm not up on what they are.
	So Francine, it's amazing.
	Like Biden leaving weapons and war engines in Afghanistan went without any more noise.
	Well, they just assumed we're back to business as usual.
	Oh, they like us again.
	Yeah, weapons, war engines, and massive pallets of cash left behind there in Afghanistan.
	Why couldn't it be me?
	Not to mention the people that had helped the U.S. military that they left there stranded.
	So it's the uh U.S. government treats Al Qaeda better than it does its own citizens.
	It does.
	And it not it's not even close.
	Yeah, they're trying to take away our weapons while they give them massive stockpiles of great weapons.
	KWD68.
	Why can't they train in Cutter?
	Why do we need to train them?
	Why are we involved in every pissing contest in the world?
	We are bringing peace, laughing emoji.
	That's right.
	Yeah, well, because uh these wars, just like these contracts with Cutter are about making money for the military industrial complex.
	It doesn't have anything to do with protecting this country.
	It's about making the military industrial complex rich.
	So it's about For Love of the Road, good to see you.
	Hope you're doing well.
	National Association for Gun Rights had a good post on Instagram recently showing an old Sears or JCPenney ad for guns you could order and have shipped to your door.
	We used to be a real country.
	We used to be a real country that was really about things.
	Yeah, and you used to be able, if you're going on a Hunting trip, let's say shoot pheasant in South Dakota or something like that.
	You could uh carry the gun on the plane with you, and uh the stewardess would help you to put it into the uh coat rack that was there by the front doors.
	Well, you know, then we had all those uh hijackings by those pheasant hunters out of South Dakota or whatever.
	Gotta keep the pheasants in line.
	Yeah.
	The pheasants are revolting.
	Citizen of Americaka, because when there are so many unhinged individuals committing such mass atrocities on a daily basis, the obvious choice is to relieve the law-abiding citizen the right to defend himself.
	Exactly.
	Mm-hmm.
	Well, don't you know once you outlaw guns in Chicago, everyone in Oblok will turn them in and the feuds will stop.
	They'll stop killing each other.
	It'll just work.
	It just works.
	Christian Constitutional Conservative, that statement verifies that DC is directing this war with Russia.
	Niburu 2029, every business Emperor Trump's ever run.
	He's running into the ground, either by bankruptcy or legal laws.
	Yeah, I wouldn't uh I wouldn't put him at the helm.
	Yeah, lucky loser.
	That was the book that uh I still haven't read it yet.
	That's the book that got him so upset that he sued not only the uh was it the New York Times, but it was also the publisher of that book.
	Um $15 billion lawsuit that got about it.
	Was it Penguin?
	Penguin's the one that's coming to mind.
	Might be.
	But uh that tells you that they were over the target, I think.
	Lucky loser, yeah.
	Are we done here with covered all the comments?
	Well, we're gonna take a quick break and we come back.
	I want to talk about these battery battery energy storage site things.
	And the fact that none of the this is kind of like the COVID uh stuff, none of this stuff has been tested.
	They don't even have a standard for what one of these batteries should be.
	And this is something that should concern everybody.
	This story is about what's going on in Massachusetts, but it's happening across the country.
	Here in Tennessee, the TVA is wanting to put these battery energy storage sites uh all over the place to back up their unreliable so-called renewables of solar and wind.
	So we're going to talk about that when we come back.
	Stay with us.
	We'll be right back.
	Analyzing the globalist's next move.
	Music.
	And now the David Nudshow.
	If you like the Eagles, on a Dark Desert Highway, the cars, and Healy Lewis in the news.
	They say the Holler Rockarous.

	The uh deadly grid battery fallacy that's been exposed in Massachusetts.
	Let's just go back for a moment, though, and uh take a look at what Dan Rather was saying in the early eighties about global warming.
	Yeah, Dan Rather of CBS.
	Well, you can trust them, can't you?
	Concerned about rising temperatures on planet Earth heated up a hearing here in Washington today.
	For years, scientists have theorized about the dangers of the so-called greenhouse effect.
	The warming of the Earth's atmosphere due to the burning of coal and oil.
	And in recent months, as David Culhane reports, research has uncovered facts to support that theory.
	Many scientists claim that the temperature of the Earth's atmosphere has been rising over the past 100 years, that the great sheets of pack ice in Antarctica are melting at a much more rapid rate than previously.
	That's nice.
	Finally, that the sea level has been rising with increasing swiftness over the past 40 years.
	If these scientists are correct, about 25% of Florida would be flooded along with low-lying areas all over the world.
	Climate changes could produce widespread disruption of agriculture.
	The American farm belt might be too dry, and the wheat and corn crops would have to move to Canada.
	Scientists blame the odorless, colorless carbon dioxide gas for these potentially dangerous changes around the planet.
	It is the greenhouse effect.
	The gas allows sunlight to filter down and warm the earth.
	But like the glass of a greenhouse, the carbon dioxide tends to trap heat so that it cannot rise into space.
	The scientists maintain that the coal, oil, and gas we've been burning for a hundred years have produced more and more carbon dioxide and helped overheat the Earth.
	Now of course that's how the insanity began.
	And here we find ourselves today with our power being shut down all over the world.
	You notice how they said uh scientists have discovered facts to support the theory.
	So the theory came first, and uh then they went in search of the facts.
	Bring me the man and I'll find the crime.
	Bring me the theory that we're going to use to shut down power across the globe, and I'll supply you with some rigged facts.
	And of course, the man to do that was the man himself, Michael Mann, who did that.
	But uh, an alert uh in Massachusetts from a watchdog group has blown the whistle on the Department of Environmental Protection there for issuing potentially catastrophic guidance for building grid scale battery facilities.
	They're specifying a standard which was meant for small batteries, making some of the rules deadly wrong when you scale it up to the size of a grid.
	It turns out that this fallacy is widespread nationally, making their warning much more important.
	Massachusetts is rushing uh an enormous grid battery build-out uh that's being driven by their 2024 Energy Act.
	Something like 3,500 megawatts of battery projects are to be built around the state in the next two years or so.
	This is a massive malinvestment, and it is going to make us poor.
	It's gonna leave us in the dark when we have governments that are doing this.
	A 40-foot-long tractor trailer sized battery is typically just one megawatt.
	So if they want 3,500 megawatts, think about setting up 3,500 tractor trailer uh loads that are there, and that's what we're talking about.
	These are huge batteries.
	And we know the technology involved.
	We we've seen it spontaneously combusting, burning people in their cars when they're trapped in it because uh the same people that gave us electric cars thought it'd be really uh super geeky fun to make sure that even the doors are under software uh control, and so people get trapped in these cars when they set on fire.
	The Energy Act required the Massachusetts uh bureaucracy to issue safety guidance for this build-out, which it did in August.
	Policy director of the Massachusetts Fiscal Alliance just blew the whistle.
	He said the battery guidance lacks the juice to deal with mass projects.
	The focus is on the National Fire Protection Association's standard 855.
	It is the standard for the installation of stationary energy storage systems.
	As he points out, this standard is only for small batteries, not for the giant batteries, the forty-foot long batteries and the battery complexes that are about to flood Massachusetts.
	He said, by way of scale, this NFPA standard 855 is limited to batteries with a storage capacity of 50 kilowatt hours.
	But we're talking about batteries that have one megawatt uh um hour.
	Uh he said um the max is 50 kilowatt hours or less.
	Such a battery might be used for emergency blackout protection in an office building.
	However, each of the state's energy act batteries Is likely to have a capacity of uh four megawatt hours or more.
	Uh so anywhere from one to four megawatts.
	Giant batteries that are eighty times larger than the standard eight five five allows are not adequately covered by the standard.
	Unfortunately, as of yet, there are no national standards for batteries of this scale.
	This kind of reminds me of uh Operation Warp Speed, doesn't it?
	You know, we we're gonna rush this thing out.
	We haven't tested it, we don't know what it's going to do, but you better you're gonna get this in a big way.
	The government is constantly doing this.
	Uh that's the way they they run all this just like Trump's fake it till he makes it authority uh to do all these things.
	They rush out there with the stuff and they say, Stop me.
	Applying this standard will be catastrophically wrong.
	The standard says that when there are multiple batteries, they should be three feet apart, so that if one burns, it will not ignite its neighbors.
	That tiny spacing would provide no protection at all in the case of these giant batteries that are being mandated, the battery energy storage sites, BESS.
	The greatest risk of these huge batteries is that a single battery burning has the potential to set the entire complex on fire.
	This is not a theory.
	We have seen this in um uh several places, Canada, Germany, France.
	We've had the electric buses, uh, which again, these are large batteries, but they are not as big as these uh battery energy storage site things.
	So those large batteries, once they started and caught on fire spontaneously in some cases, uh burned down entire depots, every single EV bus.
	And it happened in Munich and it happened in um I forget the other place in Germany.
	Happened in two places in Germany, happened in France, and they had a situation in Canada as well.
	And so what they did in these places were burned down every single bus at the complex because one of them caught fire.
	They uh went back to diesel.
	And so now they want to do something that's even bigger and concentrate all these things together.
	What could go wrong?
	Uh one of our listeners, North American House Hippo drives a bus, and he said they had one of their electric buses catch fire.
	And thankfully it was when it was an empty lot, it was basically the only one sitting there, so it only managed to, I believe, damage one other bus.
	But this is happening.
	It's common enough that our listener who just drives, you know, happens to drive a bus and they have electric buses there, one of them just goes off.
	Yeah.
	Well, we've seen pictures of electric uh vehicles that spontaneously combust in uh parking garages and things like that.
	Uh, this is a known problem with lithium batteries.
	The technology is not ready yet.
	And these people are pushing this uh in an inappropriate way, it's extremely expensive, it's very dangerous, but of course that's what government does all the time.
	China had a very amusing solution to this.
	I put the uh video in the deck a while ago that we haven't played uh go ahead and play that.
	So just shoot your burning battery out.
	Like a rocket, yeah.
	Gonna eject it.
	We got a safety issue, just eject the battery and now it becomes a safety issue for the next person beside you.
	It's not your safety issue anymore.
	That's the ultimate kick the can down the road.
	Eject the flaming battery down the road as well.
	Whoever's next to you, that's their problem now.
	Yes.
	So um, yeah, this this whole thing is it's been a scam forever, and people need to uh wake up to it.
	That's been one of the good things about Trump.
	He's not only said that, but he's actually taken some action in this second term uh to do that.
	So hopefully they'll continue unless somebody with some deeper pockets gets a hold of him.
	The American Clean Power Association has a fact sheet.
	They say that, and they refer to the same standard, but they never mention the fact that the standard is set up for a 50 kilowatt hour limitation.
	Even worse, features a grid scale battery background photo.
	And it's not about that at all.
	The deeper question is why the standard um has not been issued for a giant grid scale battery.
	There is a grid scale battery building boom that is going on, and while recent legislation is rapidly phasing out lucrative studies for wind and solar, it left untouched the similar subsidies for giant batteries.
	Maybe they're not coming up with a standard because they don't want you to know that there's a problem.
	That might be the issue because there's a lot of money still to be made in this thing.
	So as I pointed out yesterday briefly, there's a huge spike, especially in the UK, with the copper cables that are being stolen from the charging places for the EVs.
	And when they take the copper cable, it leaves you stranded.
	They get the copper strands and you get stranded.
	A couple of years ago, the telegraph carried a piece reporting that the International Energy Agency was warning of the need to step up the mining of lithium, copper, and nickel if the international net zero targets are to be met.
	The problem is if we get the net zero, we don't have any way to process those minerals because we can't do any manufacturing without power.
	And so they're kind of cutting this whole thing off.
	Think about today's growth sectors.
	Renewable energy generation, electric vehicles.
	The one thing they all have in common is an insatiable appetite for copper.
	It requires three times as much copper to generate the same amount of electricity on a solar farm as it does in a gas-fired power station.
	Nearly eight times as much if you're using offshore wind.
	And so the price rises are not linear, they have gone exponential.
	Trump's latest 100% tariffs on China have caused a significant drop.
	But there's a limit as to what customers will pay for copper.
	So evidently not if you are if you are a thief in the UK, and they have a lot of stories here about uh people who uh just show up, one guy shows up.
	First he clips everything, then he disappears.
	They kid him on the video camera.
	So first he clips the cables and he walks off into the woods.
	And then the same guy comes back later with a truck to grab the cables.
	So he doesn't park his truck there, but then he uh he comes up very quickly.
	The irony is that he's got an EV truck as well.
	Which is I don't know, he's got uh the kind of getaway car that he needs with that.
	But I maybe hasn't thought this thing through all the way.
	Yeah, but silent, they can't hear you coming.
	So this is we're talking about a tremendous amount of money that is stacking up and a tremendous percentage of these stations that are being attacked in the UK.
	Um Al Gore's got a new startup to track fossil fuel emissions by satellite and by artificial intelligence.
	And so what he's talking about, folks, and this is the the real threat with AI, he's now got a way to correlate this to uh see what you're doing because of artificial intelligence.
	And so what he's doing is uh he's gonna use satellite and AI to determine where there is greenhouse gases.
	They said there's no way to track CO2, but of course we all exhale CO2.
	Animals do.
	It's not a problem, it's necessary, it's a good thing.
	But they're gonna track methane as as well.
	And uh these are they're not gonna be sniffing it, they're going to be uh uh licking at it with their uh companies called Climate Trace.
	It uses satellites to monitor the location of heat-trapping methane sources.
	He expanded a system to track the source and the plume of pollution from tiny particles, often referred to as soot, on a neighborhood basis for 2500 cities across the world.
	And then this article from uh AP News propagates the lie that I've been pushing back against for 13 years now.
	Uh this was something that was going on in North Carolina, the uh particulate matter 2.5 that the EPA was involved in.
	And if you recall the report that I did at the time, there were we're living in North Carolina in Research Triangle Park, they the EPA had a facility there, and they hooked people up to uh they had filtered out the carbon monoxide so that it wouldn't kill them outright,
	but uh they hooked them up directly to the tailpipe, almost directly to the tailpipe of a diesel, and they had searched for people who had uh either uh respiratory or cardiac issues, and uh we had um uh one of the researchers that was there, uh, noticed that they had to take people to the emergency room, and he started doing research on it, and um he found that uh They were actually looking for people like that.
	And they were trying to uh set the standard up.
	They already had a standard, and they were exposing people to 72 times the amount of pollution that was in the standard.
	And as this was all happening, uh, and of course the group that I was with sued them and tried to get this to stop, tried to get a temporary restraining order on it, because they said that there was not informed consent, that they were dangerously experimenting on the people who had signed up for this, and they were.
	But uh the reality is is that you had Lisa Jackson, who was Obama's uh secretary of the EPA or Secretary of the EPA, whatever the position is, she ran the EPA.
	She went on to Capitol Hill and she had a back and forth little dog and pony show they had arranged with um uh a Massachusetts Congressman who has now become the a Massachusetts senator, rewarded for this little betrayal of the American people.
	And they had this little dialogue going back and forth.
	You could tell because he stepped on her lines and read some of her lines, and then she had to backtrack.
	The whole thing was planned and scripted.
	And she said, I'm not talking about people getting sick from pollution.
	I'm talking about people dying.
	And we got more people dying from this fine particulate matter than are dying from cancer and heart disease.
	It's the number one killer that we have in our country.
	It's like, oh, really?
	And so if that were true, and you are exposing people to this at a level that is seventy-two times what you say is uh safe.
	What does that say about you?
	So well, uh, wasn't it 72 times the thing that they said was life threatening, and they exposed people that they had specifically screened for respiratory issues to something that was 72 times above their life-threatening level.
	That's right.
	And of course, the people didn't die.
	That's the other thing about it.
	A couple of people got sick and had to be taken to the hospital, but nobody died.
	So the whole thing was a lie.
	They were criminal in their intent.
	But the reality is that they exposed that it's not the dangerous thing that they say that it is.
	But here we are, thirteen years later, an associated press, uh the associated propaganda people say particle pollution kills millions of people worldwide each year.
	No, it doesn't.
	Tens of thousands in the U.S., according to scientific studies and reports.
	Oh, yeah.
	That's what science says.
	Well, it's total BS.
	Gore's coalition will use 300 satellites, 30,000 ground tracking sensors, and AI to track 137,000 squ uh sources of particle pollution, with 4,000 of them categorized as super emitters.
	That's difficult before AI, said Gore, for people to really see precisely where this conventional air pollution is coming from.
	So now he's going to have some AI hallucinating the climate MacGuffin for us.
	Yeah, Over could see the effects of this, but here I made a map and I drew a whole bunch of lines on it.
	Yeah, there's a bunch of lines on it so you can see where all the uh stuff that I want you to be afraid of is.
	That's right.
	Just like COVID, just like the other McGuffin, right?
	You can't see this, except on the news.
	But if you look at the news, you can clearly see there's a pandemic.
	And if you look at his uh screen here, you can clearly see this killing everybody.
	Again, particular pollution that kills almost nine million people every year, said Gore in a video interview, and they just repeat that lie.
	Uh so top UN court has claimed that all governments must fight CO2.
	Uh the they have a legal duty under international law, they said.
	Uh, but uh CO2 is actually also the gas of life.
	It is very, very important, uh, both to animals and to plants.
	So um the uh climate depot chief, Mark Morano sees this as an act of desperation from the UN.
	He says, facing the insurmountable collapse of their global climate agenda, with the overwhelming majority of nations not even trying to pretend to meet the climate obligations anymore.
	The UN High Court has ruled that nations are compelled and have no choice but to comply or to pay repatriations and defund climate justice programs.
	See, that's the thing.
	Uh everybody can see where this all leads now.
	We could see where it was going to lead forever, but now they can actually see the effects kicking in.
	It may be too late for them to pull back, but uh they're trying to pull back very uh very much so, and so the UN is getting very desperate in terms of this.
	Uh let's cover A couple of uh comments here and let's take a break.
	That's right.
	KWD sixty eight.
	I read that the IDF is continuing to destroy tunnels and blow up buildings as they withdraw.
	Quote unquote.
	I wouldn't be surprised.
	Trump burger.
	Warp speed was the greatest achievement in human history.
	Clown emoji.
	That's right.
	Uh another quote from our wonderful leader.
	Skoncala Rose Gardens, how are you gonna go golf where people were starving?
	That would be bad for my posture and inevitably my swing.
	Well, when you're a complete psycho and you don't care, I suppose it's not that big a deal.
	KWD sixty eight, Trump says we need to send troops back to Afghanistan.
	Oh boy.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	How's that?
	Give him a peace prize for that alone, right?
	Back to Baghdad.
	Yeah.
	Christian constitutional conservative.
	In Australia, civilians can buy handguns, but only for specific highly restricted purposes like sport or target shooting, and they must meet strict licensing requirements.
	Owning a handgun for self-defense is not a valid reason and is illegal.
	That's right.
	If someone is going to hurt you, you just have to take it.
	Neighborhood 2029.
	Remote-controlled aircraft have been around longer and far easier to control than any remote-controlled vehicle.
	Gun laws are written to protect the aristocracy, not the general public.
	Yeah.
	KWD 68.
	Man down the road has an EV, he charges in his garage.
	I keep expecting to see fire.
	No way I would have that in my house.
	Yeah, no.
	I remember the first time I saw a house uh in the news, house burned down in North Carolina, not too far from World War.
	It was a Nissan leaf that they were uh charging in their garage and caught fire and burned the entire house down.
	They're just not safe.
	Well, I mean, look at New York, look at how many fires they've had.
	And a lot of people have died from recharging the well, uh they weren't recharging them even, evidently at all.
	Those electric scooters, yeah.
	They just have those lithium batteries in there, and you know, you're expecting these people to not abuse them, not damage them, which is an insane thing to ask when it's not their property.
	They are going to do stupid things with them, and the battery housing is going to get damaged.
	KWD68.
	Gotten one of these battery ejection systems and washed at their neighbors.
	That's right.
	They got that idea from James Bond, right?
	Whatever you do, don't touch that switch.
	Said Q, right?
	Uh press the button.
	What happens if you accidentally press the button, you know?
	Just all of a sudden uh how hard is it to reattach the batteries?
	KWD 68.
	Dan Rather, forget the impending Ice Age.
	We are warming now.
	Same scientist who said Ice Age was coming two years before.
	That's right.
	He uh he was right there at the cusp of the change.
	That was where they did the about face and said, no more cooling, now going to warming.
	Thanks for pointing that out.
	That's right.
	In uh in just a just a singular lifetime, they have changed the story who knows how many times.
	Francine, I don't believe in the solar system anymore.
	Sad I want to, but Well, I guess I don't know.
	Are we talking about the solar system to back up your house, or are we talking about the solar system that actually the sun that actually affects the climate, that's the driver of the climate.
	Yeah.
	Uh I do believe in the solar system.
	I thought you were talking about solar systems, which uh do work well in small scale uh Yeah, that's that's what they're for.
	That's what they're you know, that's your uh your lifeline off of the big grid system.
	And of course you don't even have to have a battery.
	The battery is always the issue.
	You know, if you could live with just having power when the sun is shining in your house, you know, that would be one thing.
	But uh uh getting off of the grid is a good use, but when you make this uh this scale it up to the size of that we need for the grid, it doesn't work.
	It's not scalable.
	That's the real issue with the solar power stuff.
	We have KWD sixty eight, Rachel Carson, silent spring in sixty two, birds didn't die, no ice age, no acid rain, no ozone hole, no warming.
	Plenty of lies.
	Zox of Oxas.
	Remember that video of the guy trapped in the elevator with his moped battery.
	Yeah, that was uh that must have been terrifying.
	Uh I don't remember if he survived or not.
	KWD sixty eight.
	California needs to put those batteries in the forest to finish them off.
	Well, that's the other thing, too.
	Somebody said uh a headline of one of these things was arsenis burns down the climate fear agenda.
	Because I found out the large palisades uh fire in in California was not because of global warming.
	Uh they caught or the guy confessed that that he had uh done it as arson.
	And uh they were they were really had doubled down on that.
	See, all these fires are all about uh climate change.
	it was a crazy person who had been talking to Chat GPT and talking about how oh it felt so good to burn a Bible or something like that.
	So yeah, I guess we could blame it on AI, not on climate change.
	Oh wait, thank you very much.
	Appreciate the tip.
	Says please call climate change by its absurd new name coined by Al Gore, I believe, global boiling.
	Think about how delicious all the crab in the ocean will be once we're finished.
	It's a climate McGuffin, that's what it really is.
	have to build the battery to see what's in it.
	Number 2029.
	As with most things, Massachusetts, the legislature will change the law to fit the battery grid.
	Multiple cargo ships full of cars have sunk because of battery fires.
	Yeah, we've covered at least two of them since the spring.
	Huge, yeah.
	Yeah.
	Nothing has changed.
	That's right.
	Citizen of America's a suck up.
	Another thing with all the uh big publicity of these uh ice raids and all that, you've got it's not effective.
	He's not actually doing anything to stop immigration.
	We're still uh, you know, incentivizing these people, still massive illegal immigration.
	He's just also adding a police state to it.
	Yeah, we still got the pot of gold there to draw them in.
	Citizen America Aka says, suck on this tailpipe.
	That's right.
	That's what they were having you do.
	Yeah, there was a video of it where they had like little masks over with a pipe going to uh directly connected.
	It was utterly ridiculous.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	The type of thing that I think would just about make anyone nauseous, you know.
	Just because of the smell and the ugh just sounds disgusting.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	Imagine if you had anything in sufficient quantity will kill you, including water.
	So on the same basis as the way they do this uh so-called test, they could use it to claim that all water has to be eliminated, and that's probably coming too.
	Yeah.
	I mean, when I briefly had my motorcycle in Austin, sitting around in traffic in the summer heat with just the exhaust coming out of you.
	I thought I was going to be sick quite a few times.
	Just I know we drive a convertible in Austin.
	So And of course, with the amount of trucks they have there in Texas, it's just piping the exhaust directly in over the top of the convertible.
	Yeah.
	Real OctoSpook, read that one.
	Real OctoSpook, haven't read this one.
	Attacking CO2, the gas of life for all life is simply paying attention to the detail in their war on We the People and All Life.
	KWD68 car manufacturers making internal combustion vehicles that seem to be making EV an easier sale.
	Even Toyota's producing a lot of garbage now.
	Mm-hmm.
	Yeah.
	That's right.
	So um we're gonna take a quick break and we're gonna take a look as we're talking about uh what's happening with the excuse for uh a um civil war here, the war within.
	Uh we had a back and forth over the weekend with uh George Stephanophilus and JD Vance.
	They got into a fight over Tom Homan.
	So I want to play that a little bit for you and uh talk about what that really tells us.
	We'll be right back.
	you're listening to the david knight show This is the end.
	Beautiful friend.
	This is the end, my only friend The end of our elaborate plans The end of everything that stands You got that up on the end.
	No safety surprise the end.
	I'll never look at your unsafe prices.
	And we're going to straighten that one by one.
	They're saying you're trying to take over the Republic.
	And this is going to be a major part for some of the people in this room.
	That's a war too.
	It's a war from within.
	I told Pete.
	We should use some of these dangerous cities as training grounds for our military.
	Can you picture what will be So ill, but not set free Descretly in need
	Also strangers have been a exactly.
	So we have, when we look at this, you're losing credibility, says J.D. Vance.
	By the way, that clip, you got that up yesterday on X, right?
	That we just played?
	I transferred it to you.
	The text that implied that you were going to upload it.
	Oh, okay.
	Well, we'll get it up, folks.
	It's done.
	It's ready.
	I asked uh this to bug it, and um we have a failure of what we have here is failure to communicate.
	That's right.
	And it happens over and over again.
	Well, um, I also had in the deck here, here we go.
	ABC cut the feed on JD.
	Uh, they were arguing back and forth as to whether or not Tom Homan actually accepted a bag with $50,000 cash in it in exchange for agreeing to do some contracts to the people who are giving him the bag of cash.
	And so J.D. Vance was asked point blank by George Stephanophilus if that happened or not, and why they aren't doing anything about it.
	And listen to the evasion that goes on with JD Vance.
	I don't know what tape you're referring to, George.
	I saw media reports that Tom Homan accepted a bribe.
	There's no evidence of that.
	And here's George, why fewer and fewer people watch your program and why you're losing credibility because you're talking for now five minutes with the vice president of the United States about this story regarding Tom Homan, a story that I've read about, but I don't even know the video that you're talking about.
	Meanwhile, low-income women can't interested if he's taking a bride, right?
	Chuck Schumer have shut down the government.
	Right now we're trying to figure out how to pay our troops because Chuck Schumer has shut down the government.
	You're focused on a bogus story, you're insinuating criminal wrongdoing against a guy who has done nothing wrong instead of focusing on the fact that our country is struggling because our government shut down.
	Let's talk about the real issues, George.
	I think the American people would benefit much more from that than from you going down some weird left-wing rabbit hole where the facts clearly show that Tom Homan didn't engage in any criminal wrongdoing.
	It's not a weird left-wing rabbit hole.
	I didn't insinuate...
	How can you say the facts don't shoot if you haven't looked at the facts?
	$50,000, as was heard on an audio tape recorded by the FBI in September 2024, and you did not answer the question.
	Thank you for your time this morning.
	No, then I just said that I thought up next.
	We'll be right back.
	Because it had gone on for quite some time.
	Um so uh Vance began by saying he was asked about that.
	He said he accepted $50,000 in cash.
	September 2024, he's got the exact date.
	The FBI's got an audio tape of it.
	And what was not mentioned in the back and forth exchange by either of them was that the fifty thousand dollars wasn't some payment that was sent, so you know, maybe that was I don't know what they were sending that to him for, but they gave it to him in a grocery bag uh that was filled with cash.
	That's not suspicious at all to JD Vance.
	And we know that Tom Homan can't be a bad guy because he's part of their administration.
	He doesn't need to be investigated.
	He's part it of the Trump administration.
	He shouldn't be vetted with any of this stuff.
	So um Vance began by saying Tom Homan did not take a bribe.
	The reason you guys are going after Tom Homan so aggressively is because he's doing the job of enforcing the law.
	That's a question mark.
	He says, I think it's really preposterous.
	He's a good man.
	I think it would be a much more interesting story about why it is that Tom Homan, who is simply enforcing America's immigration laws, is getting constantly harassed and threatened.
	Stefanoff said, Well, I'm not sure you answered the question.
	Are you saying that he did not accept the 50,000?
	Well, he didn't take a bribe.
	Did he accept fifty thousand?
	I'm not sure that in the course of Tom Homan's life, he has been paid more than fifty thousand dollars for services.
	So did he take it?
	You know, you hear if you listen to what J.D. Vance is saying, he has just destroyed his entire credibility.
	First of all, he says he's sure the guy's not guilty, but he doesn't know anything about the facts of the case.
	How can you be sure that he's not guilty if you don't know anything about the facts of the case?
	And when somebody makes an allegation that there is corruption, you don't care to investigate.
	Instead, you're gonna say, Well, I know he didn't do it, so we're not gonna look.
	Uh Stefano said, I'm asking you, did he accept the fifty thousand?
	He's caught on the surveillance tape.
	Did he accept that or not?
	Vance says, George, I don't know what you're talking about.
	Did he accept fifty thousand dollars for what?
	Stefan Offlaw said he was recorded on an audio tape in September 2024, an FBI surveillance tape accepting fifty thousand dollars in cash.
	Did he keep that money?
	Vance said, accepting fifty thousand for doing what, George?
	I'm sure that he gets paid frequently in uh a grocery bag full of cash.
	Right?
	Whatever he does.
	Who hasn't been paid in a grocery bag full of fifty thousand dollars before?
	Let me who have not been paid in a grocery bag.
	Actually, that was one of the things about Sparrow Agnew was that he was getting suitcase, I think it was suitcases of money, at least they dressed it up a little bit better than a grocery bag.
	I know.
	But he was getting uh massive amounts of cash given to him.
	There's also the fact that with inflation, fifty grand really isn't even that much anymore.
	Like it's a life-changing amount of money for you or I. Yeah.
	It's a massive amount for us, but you think that a government official, you know.
	So the guy who aren't keeping up with inflation is all I'm saying.
	So the guy who said, if the president does it, it's not against the law.
	It's not illegal or whatever.
	That guy, Richard Nixon, got rid of Spiro Agnew, his vice president, because he was accepting massive amounts of cash over the table in his office.
	But this administration is even worse, far worse.
	They don't even want to look at it.
	We know there's no issue here.
	Accepting fifty thousand for what, George?
	Uh I was actually about to say this interaction here reminds me of a scene from Futurama.
	There's a very famous one where Richard Nixon comes back and he's ahead in a jar, but he's still running for president.
	And he gets on the debate.
	And the question is, would you steal the candy from a baby?
	And Richard Nixon just starts, you know, he starts sweating.
	He's like, well, the question is very vague.
	It doesn't even say what kind of candy it is.
	At least I I wouldn't hurt the child, you know.
	Yeah.
	And this is what we keep saying.
	$50,000 for what?
	Is it illegal to take $50,000 for services?
	Yeah, if the services are going to be promises of government contracts.
	The FBI hasn't prosecuted him.
	Well, that's because you put in people like Cash Patel, who also doesn't have any credibility.
	Just Like you, just like Pam Bondi, just like Dan Bongino.
	None of these people have any credibility.
	And so they're covering for each other with this stuff, just as they covered for Trump of the Epstein stuff.
	I've never seen any evidence that he's engaged in criminal want wrongdoing.
	Nobody has accused Tom of violating a crime.
	Did he accept 50,000?
	Honestly, George, I don't know the answer to that question.
	Stephanov says, so you don't uh what was caught on the tape?
	You're saying right now you don't know whether or not he kept that money?
	George, I think the American people will benefit much more from that than um you going if you were talking about real issues and he goes all the different problems that we're facing right now.
	Oh you should talk about that instead of talking about Tom Homan's integrity.
	You know, clearly we know that we don't want to talk about corruption in the Trump administration.
	Even when it's right in your face.
	And so again, that was where we picked it up, where he said, Well, it's not a left wing rabbit hole, that's what he said.
	And uh so yeah, and I as I pointed out the other day, we have barcodes for politicians.
	That's exactly where we are with these people.
	Let's take a look at what is happening in uh the uh uh in the uh various manifestations of the church in various places, especially the church of England.
	This is an amazing thing that's being done in uh Canterbury Cathedral.
	And uh of course, uh we understand why this is happening if you look at the people behind it.
	Uh Lance, see if you can pull up this guy who is the artist responsible for this graffiti all over Canterbury Cathedral.
	The guy's name is Alex Vellis.
	He is the alleged artist behind all this, and he is um LGBT, he's got his uh special pronouns and all the rest of the stuff.
	There he is.
	Here's the horrifying picture you want to.
	Yeah, scroll down, you can see that he's in a dress, actually.
	Um Be warned, folks.
	This is hard to look at.
	Yeah, yeah.
	And and then we have the uh the graffiti itself.
	Pull the graffiti up that they've uh put on the I don't know if that's permanent or if it's removable.
	They put that up as some kind of a vinyl thing or something.
	You'd think they would assume at least use water soluble paint.
	There has to be something like that.
	Maybe their hatred runs so deep that they don't care.
	One person said, Are you joking?
	Canterbury Cathedral, one of the holiest and most beautiful buildings in the UK has been graffitied.
	Even worse, the church approved it and probably paid this guy a lot of money to do it.
	They say they worked with the marginalized communities to do this.
	Person says, Shame on you for this.
	Except when you look at this happened just a day or so after the newly appointed Archbishop of Canterbury, uh, who is uh a woman.
	I don't know if uh this tranny art project uh is something that she approved or not, but uh I don't know if she's a lesbian or not.
	It looks like the LGBT has uh become pure antichrist.
	This is uh these are the people who have focused the attack on Christ, and that's exactly what this graffiti is.
	The graffiti questions God's goodness uh from an artist who identifies as a gender goblin, in other words, no gender, genderless, a gender.
	Uh he's uh a gender atheist.
	Talking at the right idea and what you do with goblins.
	And uh so again, uh this is the state of the church of England.
	And when you look at the uh Canterbury Cathedral from the outside, it truly is amazing.
	There's nothing like this that would be uh built today by anyone anywhere.
	They have graffitied the inside of this thing, like it's some kind of a subway station or something.
	The new exhibit at Canterbury Cathedral features graffiti questioning God's goodness.
	It prompted uh JD Vance, Elon Musk and others to claim the Church of England is humiliating itself.
	The art exhibit is in is titled Hear Us.
	It highlights minorities while posing difficult questions to God.
	Well, it's because God had said uh not hear us.
	He said, This is my beloved son, hear him.
	But they don't want to hear him.
	Uh so the questions, things that were put up there, are you there?
	Why did you create hate when love is far more powerful?
	Uh and um again, this guy not only calls himself a gender, but he identifies as a queer vegan, uses they then pronouns.
	Other messages include Does everything have a soul?
	Do you regret your creation?
	Is illness sin?
	Others said, uh, why all the suffering?
	If you made us in your own form, why the violence and the killing storms?
	You know, he wrote a book with these questions answered.
	There's an entire book that I give you those answers, but evidently.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	Go to a church that isn't run by the uh Church of England.
	Then you might actually get some answers to these questions that you are writing on the walls of the church.
	Yeah, and Coulter said, and they wonder why Christians don't bother going to churches anymore.
	As a matter of fact, the former chaplain to uh Queen Elizabeth II said he was shocked by the graffiti.
	He said it belongs more to the architecture of a car park or than to a modern church.
	He said uh there is nothing left at the center of the church of England.
	The God mocking graffiti and its most prominent church indicates decay, rebellion, and anger.
	He said, How is this congruent with the art of a cathedral?
	It's undermining.
	It has a different kind of aesthetic dissonance.
	Uh and they said um he said that doesn't help uh with a quest for God.
	They're not looking for God.
	They're trying to fight with God, and they're trying to fight with uh his people.
	The cathedral graffiti comes a week after the Church of England announced Sarah Mulalee as the first female Archbishop of Canterbury.
	The installation of her uh this woman who has openly affirmed abortion and homosexuality, prompted some within the global Anglican communion to claim that the Church of England has been given over to apostasy.
	I would say that's a pretty safe conclusion.
	But uh all is not dead uh in the church.
	We have uh a great story that went viral, and this was a a woman who was uh delivering pizza, and um she shows up at this uh this house is uh where a pastor and his family lives, and she's got the wrong order, and I'll let you see what happened.
	Neil, okay, Neil, uh I'm sorry, I'm getting old.
	I saw sixty-seven.
	It's not sixty-seven or fifty-seven, it you remember fifty-seven, so fifty-seven, sixty-seven.
	I screwed up.
	I'm sorry.
	I'm on my way back to get it right now.
	I will bring it back.
	I think we we can make it work.
	Hey, and don't for one second, feel bad.
	Well, I'm we love you and Jesus loves you.
	And we hope you have a great night.
	Don't feel bad for one second.
	We're having a great night.
	Thank you.
	Okay.
	You're welcome.
	You're very much loved.
	You know that.
	Do you know Jesus?
	You Yeah?
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	Are you living for Jesus?
	I'm just struggling.
	Oh, yeah.
	Things have been pretty difficult to think.
	So girls, come here, we're gonna pray for this really nice lady.
	What's your name?
	My name is Jediana.
	Oh, Susanna.
	Yeah I'm Neil.
	Come on!
	Hey girl, do you love this lady right here?
	Yes.
	Let's pray for her.
	Here, put put it.
	Can I put my hand on your phone?
	Evelyn, if you want to come over.
	Yeah.
	And your name one more time?
	Susanna.
	Susanna, Jesus, we thank you for Susanna.
	And Lord, I thank you that we cross paths tonight.
	In fact, Lord, she's more important than any of these orders tonight because you matter to her.
	She matters to us.
	Well, I just pray you would bless her.
	I pray that you would open the windows of heaven over her and uh bring any healing she needs to her body in the name of Jesus, any financial need to her Lord, and God that she would encounter you and live for you and follow you in everything she has in Jesus' name.
	Amen.
	Hey, have a great night.
	Bless you.
	Take care.
	That was uh Yeah.
	It's a lot a lot nicer than most of what we get to cover on this show.
	Yeah.
	A lot more uh wholesome, I guess, is the term that a lot of people would use nowadays.
	But um they actually also article points out, set up a go fund me for her as well.
	And it raised, I believe it's thirty-four hundred dollars.
	Thirty-four thousand.
	Thirty-four thousand.
	I left off as zero.
	Yeah.
	Math is not the math was never much.
	She takes care of her eighty-two-year-old mother who's had a lot of problems.
	Yeah.
	So he said in the GoFundMe, uh She's one of those people who spent her whole life putting others first.
	She's currently the full time caregiver for her eight two year old mom.
	As well as uh trying to earn money delivering pizzas.
	So uh she's it's a great story.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	She's uh truly exemplifying being a good child, working at something that we all think of as just this you know, oh yeah, delivering pizzas, that's for teenagers, you do that as your first job, and then you move on to it something bigger and better.
	But she's doing what she can.
	She's not ashamed, she's working how she has to.
	Working hard.
	It's truly wonderful.
	And so as that's happening, you know, we take a look at this uh Canterbury Cathedral and the comical nonsense that is there, you know.
	That's the real life that's happening there.
	And it's even more real when you look at what is happening in Pakistan and Nigeria.
	This particular story in Pakistan.
	This is a pastor who dies three days after he was finally acquitted on blasphemy charges that he'd been locked in prison for thirteen years for blasphemy charges in Pakistan.
	At one point they'd given him the death sentence, but because he was appealing, that had not been carried out yet.
	But the thirteen years in prison was a death sentence for this guy.
	He had already had two minor heart attacks.
	They did everything they could to torture him in prison.
	And finally, he was vindicated.
	Uh the charge again was blasphemy.
	And uh this is um you look at this, and yes, this is coming from Muslims is having it, but you can certainly see this that is in the pipeline with many Western societies when we talk about the fact they want to limit and punish what people say uh in terms of conversion therapy, they want to call it.
	And so we have Colorado and other jurisdictions, uh, Virginia had its own law that got struck down.
	They're working very hard to try to criminalize the uh free speech and the free expression of religion.
	And this is what it looks like when they get it, what they want.
	The guy who has a falsely imprisoned for thirteen years.
	Uh he died of cardiac arrest just three days after his acquittal.
	He returned home after being cleared by high court, but he collapsed before his family could make arrangements for medical care.
	They'd asked that he could get medical care the entire time that he was there, but they would not give it to him.
	Again, this is Pakistan.
	He was arrested in July of 2012 after a local cleric, Muslim cleric, had accused him of sending text messages that insulted the mother of Islamic prophet Mohammed.
	And uh, yeah, I guess the mother of all false religions.
	Wait a minute, he insulted his mother.
	Uh he had two minor heart attacks while in custody.
	Uh he was repeatedly had repeatedly petitioned for bail on medical grounds, arguing that the prison conditions were inadequate and had worsened his condition.
	Um also tortured in custody to confess, sentenced to life in prison, but they nearly executed him as part of this.
	Uh they also uh added that charge to it.
	Uh he had at least 47 hearings that were scheduled between his conviction and his final release.
	Each one was adjourned without resolution.
	So they kept bringing him in and stringing him along with this so-called legal system that was there.
	Despite medical warnings, including a 2019 doctor's note that a third heart attack could be fatal, he remained in custody until his acquittal last Thursday.
	Three years earlier, a sessions court had escalated his punishment to a death sentence, though that was not carried out.
	Uh so again, uh, this is what how some people uh take their religion seriously.
	Some of them take it seriously enough to help others, others take it seriously enough to face death.
	And these clowns that have been spoiled rotten in the Church of England with all the money that they get.
	It's just amazing.
	Nigerian Christians are seeing, of course, an increase in killings and kidnappings.
	It doesn't stop.
	And it just keeps escalating.
	Germany, by the way, has a war on Christianity, and part of that is the open border And the hatred of the Islamic people that are being brought in, but it's also the collapse of Germany's faith.
	Germany's open border experiment has unleashed a wave of anti-Christian hatred fueled by imported Islamic intolerance, protected by left-wing politicians and ignored by cowardly media, leaving the once Christian heart of Europe desecrated, demoralized on the brink of spiritual collapse.
	You know, as Friedrich Nietzsche, who said God is dead.
	We have killed him, he said.
	No, what they did was they killed God in their hearts.
	And that was done back in the 1800s.
	The whole idea of higher criticism, everything was uh something that was started in Germany, and we see the fruit of it in uh the Weimar Republic corruption and in the rise of Hitler.
	And now we see it continuing in Germany with the persecution of Christians, bringing in Muslims in large numbers.
	The other thing that's worth noting is that when Nietzsche said God is dead, that was sort of a lament on his part.
	Yeah, we have killed God, and now structures what do we do now?
	That's right.
	Yeah, whereas these you know, the average person who says that thinks Nietzsche is celebrating that we've killed him.
	We can now engage in a truly rational pursuits.
	Our minds are free from this superstition.
	Even Nietzsche, who, you know, they quote, they're misquoting him because he was terrified of this.
	What have what they lost the foundation of their society, the lost the moral foundation of it, which uh we have as well.
	Yeah, it's the uh wanting the fruit, not the root was that said, don't tell the servants there is no God, they'll steal the silverware.
	Yeah, I don't know who that was.
	I remember that quote, yeah.
	Uh so um uh, you know, they say this hatred has been imported, and yet there's enough hatred in Germany for Christianity to start with.
	Remember the family, uh the homeschooling family that fled from Germany was given asylum here that Biden, of all the millions of people that came in illegally, he didn't try to deport them.
	Instead, he wanted to focus on this Christian homeschooling family that had been given asylum that were really politically persecuted.
	They were going to have their children taken away, and they might have been put in prison themselves if they went back.
	And so you have Germany attacking homeschoolers, they attack the opposition party, AFD.
	Uh immigration has created new tensions around Christianity and public life.
	A diplomatic understatement for the Islamic contempt towards Christians that has now taken root in German streets, schools, and neighborhoods.
	The same leftist politicians who opened the borders have now criminalized dissent.
	They label anyone who points to this correlation as Islamophobic.
	They have burned Bibles, they have decapitated statues, they have destroyed confessionals, many church buildings have now closed their doors.
	And so the German bishops conference called the pattern open hostility against Christianity.
	These attacks are not merely material damage, but an assault on belief itself and a disruption of religious life.
	They demand systematic prosecution.
	Uh, they decided when they came along and burned their Bibles and they decapitated their statues.
	They would just close a church.
	Except the churches are not closing in Nigeria, even though their homes are being burned, and the people are being decapitated by the Muslims.
	They still hang tough.
	Tells you everything you need to know about the state of the church in Germany.
	Germany's political class is so quick to condemn offenses against other faiths, has met the persecution of Christians with silence and bureaucratic indifference.
	Fred Mertz publicly mourned the rising anti-Semitism, but no comparable outcry came for the desecration of churches or the harassment of Christian faithful.
	Meanwhile, public officials and left-leaning media outlets continue to frame such acts as isolated vandalism or the product of youth delinquency.
	Yeah, misguided youth.
	The closure of churches like St. Antonius is more than a local tragedy.
	It is a symbol of Europe's spiritual collapse.
	As Germany's Christian heritage is desecrated, its leaders remain paralyzed by political correctness.
	Well, they're not paralyzed.
	They want this to happen.
	Unless the West finds the courage to defend its own faith and heritage, Germany's fate will soon be all of ours.
	That's right.
	Meanwhile in the UN, uh the uh UNESCO, which is the educational branch of the UN, uh, they have gone straight for homeschooling.
	The amazing thing, this is an article from Alex Newman, uh, and um the amazing thing I think about all this is that the guy that's running this that's coming up with guidelines for education and is coming up with uh tactics to uh attack homeschoolers is a guy who was the education minister in North Korea what an authority.
	Yeah perfect uh resume for what they want him to do.
	That's right.
	I've literally called these schools re-education camps for the longest time.
	My friend who went to West Point, when he came back to Tampa, and I introduced him to some of my college friends, I said, we were incarcerated in an institution for several years together.
	He's like, what?
	And I said, oh yeah, I'm talking about the schools.
	But yeah, that's the way I viewed it, as a re-education camp.
	But it didn't stick with me at least, I don't know.
	This guy was a Guang Chal Chang uh he is um the education head of the former head of the education ministry in North Korea and so what he's doing is he's calling for the enforcement of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child.
	Remember that's what I did back in 2009 I think it was I did the um for the uh parental rights.org they're trying to get a small constitutional amendment in that would protect parents as uh being the ones that the children belong to and um the Republicans are not interested in that at all.
	They uh don't say it out loud like Melissa Harris Perry does that you've got to get over the idea that your children belong to you.
	They don't they belong to the village.
	Hillary has said that she said that as a as a um PSA for um uh CNBC but the Republicans aren't doing anything to stop it.
	They could easily encode that in law and I would think that that would be a winning cause for them you know who wouldn't uh like to wrap themselves in mom in apple pie.
	Well evidently not the GOP.
	They're guarding our pedophiles now.
	So uh the calls for total control are clear, portrayed as mandatory.
	Governments must implement oversight mechanisms such as registration and evaluations and demand more regulatory capacity, he says.
	And so this is all about controlling what is taught because if you control what is taught you control what is thought that is the the key issue.
	And it all goes back to this idea the UN Convention on the rights of the child is where this idea comes that your children don't belong to you that these these minor children can make these decisions and they we haven't ratified the UN Convention on the rights of the child in the United States we're not bound by it legally.
	But as I pointed out in 2009, you've got judges and you've got schools and all these government institutions that act as if that is what the law is.
	And so they're constantly saying that that's the whole basis of them pushing this gender gaslighting on very young children.
	And to say that the parents and we've seen this over and over again in places like California, the parents must not be told what we were telling the kids in terms of changing, trying to change.
	them from a boy to a girl or vice versa you can't tell the parents and so we've had a lot of Christian teachers who push back against that who have sued them over that but that is really where the fight is in so many different ways.
	And so, again, they will use all the terms about socialization, quality education, all the rest of the stuff being violated.
	Talk about socialization.
	That discussion should be over after 2020.
	After they locked down the country, after they put masks on the kids, after they told them to be six feet apart, don't talk to me about socialization.
	That's insane.
	There's also the fact that it's the worst kind of socialization it's uncontrolled unmonitored lord of the flies style and you know you cannot expect a well balanced person to come out of that sort of scenario.
	They're going to have issues of some kind.
	That's right.
	Children need to be watched, guarded, and corrected.
	It's a very artificial environment that children are raised in when you put you know 30 kids in a classroom with one adult.
	An adult they don't like and don't respect.
	And an adult who can't punish them.
	You know, this guy is all against corporal punishment.
	Don't tell me they don't have corporal punishment in the North Korea, right?
	So uh you know.
	I wouldn't be surprised if they had capital punishment in North Korean schools.
	Oh Saudi.
	Yeah, so you know, they're talking about how they have to respect diversity and all the LGBT stuff.
	Do you really think they allow LGBT in North Korea?
	I don't think so.
	Uh so they said they promote mandatory training from government for parents who wish to homeschool.
	Well, you know, Karen and I already had that mandatory training.
	Uh they didn't have an option to opt out of school when we were in school, and so we both went through the mandatory training uh when we were children, so we don't need to do that again.
	As a matter of fact, that was a motivating factor for us to do homeschooling.
	But um the reality is is that it is really about character.
	And uh you've got somebody else saying this now, which is kind of interesting, I think, that um, and this is actually coming from uh FTC Northern, and they say uh the hidden crisis in our classrooms.
	Why education without character is failing America?
	And this is actually on Zero Hedge.
	This is not on some Christian site.
	And I gotta say, and as I've said for the longest time, and as others have said, character is education.
	The rest of the stuff is just uh, you know, it's uh vocational training.
	But character uh is the basis and should be the basis of education.
	That's what R. L. Dabney said back at right after the Civil War.
	He said, this whole idea of government-run schools, he goes, uh that's fine if you're gonna do vocational training or something like that.
	But uh character is really uh education should be first and foremost about character, which means that it's going to be about somebody's worldview and their religion.
	And we know that government should have no involvement in that because government should not be picking a religion to promote.
	Now we have seen which religion they want to promote is the anti-God LGBT religion that they have chosen to promote.
	So uh again, this article from Zero Hedge uh goes through all of this and the failing, uh, even by their own metrics that they want to train people in terms of uh uh you know, reading, writing, and arithmetic, for example.
	They said even in that area they're failing.
	But the biggest failure that we have is in character.
	John Dewey uh shifted education from a focus on character formation toward utilitarian aims.
	While some aspects of his approach, like critical thinking, retained value, his broader impact contributed to treating values as socially constructed and relative.
	Yeah, the uh moral relativism and the uh postmodernism, rather than objectively discernible truths that were worth pursuing.
	The ancients understood something that we've forgotten.
	In traditional time, uh academia was designed to help human beings comprehend what is true, good, and beautiful.
	Uh makes me think of Roger Scruton.
	And we've got an interview coming up, and our guests is on the line right now, and we're gonna talk about this very thing.
	And um I'm really looking forward to talking to Anthony Frieda, who is uh an artist that uh I've admired his work for a very long time.
	He's done covers for Gerald Salenti, and he has uh worked uh done artwork for InfoWars as well.
	And uh he has changed his focus.
	And he is uh still involved with politics, I think, but he is moving his focus to some projects to support Christianity.
	And he's had uh a change in his life, and we're gonna talk to him about uh his new book that is coming out, The Thought Crimes of Anthony Frieda.
	Which is he has uh They're gonna they're gonna come for the memes and all the rest of the stuff.
	We know that.
	We know that they set up the coalition for content provenance and authentication for that very reason.
	Uh memes and artwork are very profoundly powerful.
	And so we're gonna take a quick break, and when we come back, we're gonna be joined with uh Anthony Frieda.
	I'm looking very forward to uh to talking to him and finding out what is what he's up to and find out about his new book.
	We'll be right back.
	Listening to the David Knight Show.
	All right, welcome back and joining us now is Anthony Frieda.
	He's got a new book that's coming out.
	We're gonna talk to him about that, The Thought Crimes of Anthony Frieda.
	And uh he's he's got he's been very successful as an artist, and he's uh his art is um full of um very important uh critiques of the uh of what we see politically.
	Uh he's actually had and his art put on uh display at the 911 Museum and Memorial in New York City.
	And uh he's on the same page as we are, I think about 911.
	His tenure um tenure with InfoWars is an illustrator and writer, fully cemented his uh his place in the world of controversial alternative news, and he's been very vocal about his role in that space, and so that's uh where I got to know Anthony, uh as well as his work with uh Charles Slinty and Trends Journal.
	So uh thank you for joining us, Anthony.
	Good to see you again.
	Great to see you, David, and uh thanks for having me.
	Uh beautiful set, actually.
	Well, thank you.
	Thank you.
	Yeah, I always wanted uh uh talk to you about your background here, and there's a whole another aspect of your background that I wasn't aware of uh now that you're getting into Christian art and you've got a project uh with that as well and the GoFundMe to help realize that project.
	But let's let's talk about uh your personal journey here.
	Uh you you began doing copy stuff for uh uh for the advertising industry, and you began helping them to sell Joe Campbell.
	Talk a little bit about that and uh how you got from there to where you are now.
	Yeah, so it's quite a journey.
	I've been doing it for 40 years, so uh I'll give you the condensed version.
	But uh yeah, I got out of art school.
	I had this dream of becoming this, you know, famous prosperous, thriving artist.
	And uh I just wasn't prepared.
	I mean, I went to Pratt at four years of training in in art and painting and drawing, and I was pretty proficient and I was you know pretty confident.
	But they really didn't train you how to make a living as an artist, so I sort of figured that out on my own.
	Now I have to make a living doing this.
	So crossing that threshold from academia into the professional world for any artist is a is a scary time.
	I mean, I teach seniors now at FIT and it's my way of giving back because I know how scared they are.
	And so I try to s sort of pivot that's a very good thing.
	And I think it's a scarier time right now than ever has been.
	I mean, we look at AI, and a lot of people are just content to throw a prompt at AI and take whatever it gives them.
	What what do you think about that?
	How is that going to affect art?
	Well, I think it's gonna be not just art, it's gonna I mean I think it's designed to create a posthuman future.
	Yeah, where the robots do all the work and they work twenty-four hours a day, and I mean the transhumanist, you know, elevator pitch or elevator to the hell pitch is that the robots do everything for us, and we have the freedom to do whatever we want, and they'll give us a basic unit of income.
	I don't think it's gonna work out that way, but that's their utopian posthuman transhumanist future.
	Uh Yeah, it's I had my class yesterday.
	Um the kids were crying.
	They were literally crying because they just went to school for four years to learn how to be an artist, and now anyone who has an AI program can do what they do.
	Yeah.
	So it's very demoralizing to the creatives.
	But I mean, the same thing goes for the guys who remember they said learn to code, like not anymore.
	Yeah, they're putting themselves out of a job.
	That's right.
	Well, the other part of it is though, and I think we'll get to this when we get to where you are right now.
	Uh the machine has no soul.
	It's going to put things together statistically.
	And it can copy and paste and throw things against the wall.
	And uh in a sense, it's a sophisticated version of a chimpanzee painting, right?
	And so there is still going to be a niche there, I think, for the human soul, communicating truth and beauty.
	I think that's really the issue there.
	And that's what we have to focus on.
	And I think that that's going to be pretty obvious to people.
	You know, there's a lot of things that AI can do, especially I think in the art aspect, because it can hallucinate and it looks like it's uh, you know, having a drug trip or whatever, and that can be useful in art or even in music to some degree.
	But when you look at the kind of when I look at it for music, for example, um the thing about AI is that you can't precisely get it to do what you want.
	You know, it can get like 80% there or 85% there, which is not good enough for art.
	As uh many people have said art is never finished, it's simply abandoned at some point you gotta stop tweaking it and just go do something different, the next project or whatever.
	And I think that's the problem with AI.
	It just throws this stuff out there, and people say, ah, that's good enough.
	I think there's going to be a uh qualitative difference that people will be able to tell that last 15 or 20 percent that is there.
	That's my hope.
	I agree with you.
	Yeah, that's my hope.
	But I uh I think you're right.
	Listen, our advantage moving forward is the robots don't laugh, they don't cry, they don't love.
	That's right.
	They're not connected to God.
	In fact, I think it's the opposite.
	I think I think I have this idea that um just as the Holy Spirit is this unifying force and universal uh force of good and God.
	The obverse, the yin to that yang is this unifying force of darkness, which informs and is which has basically a cauldron for this AI to be created.
	And we're in incarnating it by giving it prompts and giving it life.
	But that spirit is a dark spirit, and I sense that and I feel that it's an anti-human spirit.
	I agree.
	But so does Elon Elon Musk agrees with you as well.
	He said we're summoning the demon.
	It's like, yeah, maybe we should pay attention to what he's saying about that.
	He knows that's some of these guys who are atheists say there's something here that mathematics doesn't, you know, describe or define.
	So it's something beyond mathematics.
	So what's going on?
	They don't even know.
	The guys who created it don't even know how you know these systems arrive at the decisions that they make.
	That's right.
	Um to a certain point, it's called black box technology, right?
	It's it's it's opaque.
	But um robots understand it.
	But um, but they might not but they they understand us though.
	That's the problem.
	Like we don't understand how they do what they do, but they understand us.
	I mean, they have so much big data about humanity and what moves us and that influence us that it's a lopsided uh relationship.
	That's why it's such a good fit for the government, because the government knows everything about us, but the government itself is by design a black box.
	That black box is labeled national security.
	We can't tell you, we would have to kill you, right?
	So exactly.
	And um, yeah, so I mean I could talk about AI for hours, but yeah.
	Uh yeah, but let's go back to your story.
	You were you were doing uh started working at an ad agency as you got out.
	Uh trying to start working on an A. Yeah, I was a young man, you know, young man, I listed it after money and woman, and I was in my twenties, and I became very successful working for Fortune 500 companies,
	and I um it was I was in advertising about 10 years, and I started to learn and see all the psychological tricks of manipulations, you know, informed by the ideas of uh Edward Bernays and his book Propaganda.
	He was a master of of mass psychological manipulation, right?
	And that was employed.
	He he was uh contracted by the government and by aid agencies.
	It's a long story, but um those ideas work because people respond positively to certain stimuli, negatively to other stimuli.
	Like we're pretty predictable animals.
	And once you break that code, you're trying to sell something, um, and you're smart and clever, you can figure out a way to do it.
	But I got really turned off.
	I was working on the Joe Campbell ad campaign, and it in those days they were, you know, paying us a lot of money to do this stuff, and I was just enamored with the money, and I bought a you know, condo in Manhattan, and I thought I was like live on top of the world.
	And then um, so I kind of got lost in that world of money and success.
	And then the FTC determined that our campaign was uh illegal because we were using cartoon camels.
	They said we were marketing cigarettes to children.
	Mm-hmm.
	So I sort of had a moral crisis, and I didn't become an artist to sell cigarettes to kids, right?
	And I said, you know.
	Maybe you can get a job for Pfizer because they they sell poison to kids all the time.
	Well, well, well that's that's later on in the story.
	Yeah.
	So I had this moral crisis, it's come to Jesus moment.
	I said, that's it.
	I'm done with advertising.
	I'm not gonna sell my soul to the devil.
	So I was still, you know, now I'm a young man in my 30s.
	I was pretty naive politically at that time.
	And I said, I'm gonna work for the good guys, right?
	I'm gonna work for the New York Times and uh the New Yorker, and I started working for, you know, all these mainstream publications as an editorial illustrator.
	And I worked for the op-ed page of the New York Times, which is like a premier showcase for thinkers and for um it's I kind of like where the elite speak to each other, sure.
	Right.
	Yeah.
	And I was again, I was on top of the world.
	I'm working like you know the best place for an illustrator to be.
	And I was doing articles for them uh on a regular basis.
	And then I got to see how the sausages made there.
	And the the uh the art director and and the editor told me that every single word that goes through here has to be vetted by the State Department.
	And I said, I said, I thought, you know, you're the fourth war.
	You're they said that's like Prada.
	What do you mean every word has to be by the State Department?
	They said that's that's how it is.
	So my naive taste started to, you know, unravel at that point.
	I started to become a little more educated about how the world really works.
	And I feel silly now saying that, but I I thought the New York Times was this like beacon of truth and objectivity.
	I mean, I couldn't be more wrong.
	But so I got an assignment to do uh it was um not bad piece right before the Iraq war, penned by then Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, and it was outlining all the lies that we know now that took us to that war, and I illustrated the piece.
	And then I had another moral crisis because I said to myself, my God, I went from selling cigarettes to kids to selling war.
	Like this is I didn't think I could do worse than that, but I did.
	I so I had another another, you know, time to question what am I doing with my life, what are my life choices, what do I really what do I really want to do with my skills and my whatever gift guy's given me and my passions and I mean I love to create imageries to the only thing I'm good at, so I wanted to stay in that lane.
	Um so right then was about the time that these seminal alternative news sites started coming out, like InfoWars and there was a few others and Trends Journal and I reached out to them and because I figured these guys are exposing the lies of the the mainstream media that I used to work for, and of The advertising agencies I used to work for.
	So I wanted to bite the hand that fed me.
	So I started I started working for uh people in the health freedom movement, people in the Liberty Movement, people in all these different movements, you know, people like you included.
	And um and I've been there ever since because I I I do think there are there are good people out there who are trying to get to the truth of the matter about all these issues, and journalists and activists and filmmakers and writers and and I I worked for a lot of them, and they're my heroes.
	Um politically I got I got I was on the contract for the RFK campaign when he was running for president because I believed in what he was doing and his work to expose the vaccines and the dangers of pharmaceuticals.
	Right.
	So I still have a hand in the political realm.
	Um, but I'm basically working for people who I think are the good guys, you know.
	And that I can sleep well at night now, David, because I think I'm working for people who are at least trying to tell the truth, you know.
	It's like it's it's not equivalent like when people get fined for like with the way they went after Alex for what he said.
	Like the New York Times and CNN s tell lies of much greater magnitude every day.
	And they're that nobody gets sued.
	And and by the way, their lies lead to wars that kill millions of people.
	Their lies sell products that kill millions of people, like and they're never held accountable.
	And then um and they're not the difference between them and say what independent journalists do is that they're purposely trying to lie to you.
	They know they're lying to you.
	Yeah.
	You know, it's one thing to make a mistake and in in the in the you know, the search for the truth.
	We're not always going to be perfect, but there's a big difference to somebody who's purposely knowing to lie to you to hurt you and your children, than somebody who's just trying to figure out in real time what the hell's going on because it's very confusing.
	I agree.
	We've been lied to so much about so about everything that people become so skeptical that you know, I think it f unfortunately it fosters this environment where nobody believes anything.
	And that's where we're at now.
	Nobody believes anything.
	So they come up with a hundred different theories of how Charlie Kirk was killed, right?
	No, because nobody believes the official story.
	That's right.
	And we can never get to the bottom of anything because everybody has their own theory about what happened.
	And there's there's no universal truth anymore.
	We're in the post-truth age.
	And I think that's our so truth is going to be the greatest, most valuable commodity in the future.
	I mean, here's here's what you need.
	Here's the fundamental truth.
	Government lies.
	It always has, always will for its own interest.
	So if you understand that and come with to whatever the government says or the official press says with a healthy dose of skepticism, I think that's the most important thing.
	You know, you mentioned the fact that you you realize that they had to get the approval of the State Department for what they were saying in the New York Times.
	And of course, we know about Operation Mockingbird and the rest of the stuff.
	I I thought it was really amazing the disingenuous astonishment at the fact that uh Heg Seth uh openly said, Well, you're gonna have to get approval for anything that you release.
	I don't like that.
	Uh, but that's not anything that's really different.
	The only thing that's different about that is that they're going to own it and say it out loud rather than doing it behind closed doors.
	I had a friend who worked for the Pentagon and he uh worked for the uh the side that was vetting movie scripts.
	If they liked your movie script, if it was complimentary of them and their agenda, they would give you access to military equipment that you could use to film your movie.
	If they didn't like it, you didn't get that equipment, and that might sink your movie because the expense of trying to uh get that equipment.
	Otherwise, they provide it at a reduced cost or for free.
	So that kind of thing has been going along for a very long time.
	Yeah.
	I mean, I I'm still surprised.
	I remember I'm old enough to remember Frank Church, the church committee hearings, like he had the receipts.
	He proved it back in the 70s, and nobody cared.
	Uh it's like it did nothing.
	Like they just went back to business as usual.
	Yeah.
	Uh that's right.
	I mean, I you know, thank God for him and his work, but I mean, it really didn't do anything in the big picture.
	Yeah.
	Uh And all the stuff about the heart attack gun, as I've said before, that was a really a distraction because the whole thing began because from their inception, the CIA and the NSA were spying on Americans without a search warrant, which you know it takes us, we've been fighting that thing going up to uh you know 2012, 2013, uh it's not and all the rest of the stuff.
	So the result of that was still uh the result of the church committee hearings was the Pfizer Act, the foreign intelligence surveillance act, which they then used to give themselves legal cover to do what they'd been doing from their inception, which was to spy on Americans without search warrant, as Rand Paul says, uh, you know, spying on Mr. and Mrs. Verizon.
	You know, you go to one judge in a secret court that nobody knows about, and you get legal cover to violate the Constitution.
	Uh so they always turn this stuff to their own advantage.
	Well, yeah, and I were speaking of that subject, I worked uh one of my heroes is William Bindy, and I had the pleasure of working on a documentary about William.
	Uh I met him, just a great guy, and he is I mean, he quit because he said the systems he designed to spy on potential terrorists would be being used to spy on everybody.
	Yeah.
	And that's against the oath he took and that's illegal, and he said he's not gonna do it.
	So what do they do?
	They the FBI raided his house and arrested him under false pretenses and false charges.
	Yeah.
	But um but yeah, so just get back to my journey.
	Yeah.
	So I don't lose track.
	I uh after the RFK thing, I worked for him for a year, and it was a great experience, and I got to see just how dirty the Democrats are.
	I mean, Republicans basically left him alone.
	You know, Trump would make some, you know, nasty comments now now and then, but the Democrats actively tried to destroy him with lawsuits and moles and people doing dirty tricks and it was a constant relentless assault on him that it really opened my eyes again.
	I mean, I was naive again.
	Like I whenever I I I underestimate how evil these people are, yeah, and how willing they are to to be corrupt and to use the power they have or abuse any power they have in the courts, in the media, in academia, in tech.
	I mean, which which they control those institutions, unfortunately.
	And um it just it sickened me.
	It sickened me the way they did they smeared him and lied about him and sued him and and tried to to play dirty tricks with ballots and just on and on and on.
	Oh yeah.
	So then I got out that made me realize that the battle isn't political.
	This battle is spiritual.
	So I had I wanted to move from the temporal plane into the spiritual plane of my work and got back to my Christian roots.
	I was raised a Catholic.
	Um I had a personal experience with my my fiance.
	Um started having seizures one night.
	We were watching actually it was the Obama movie, um uh it was like an apocalyptic Obama movie, Leave the Leave the World Behind, which turned out to be a foreboding title because my my girlfriends were watching this, she says, my heart hurts and I I don't feel right.
	And I said, I said, maybe it's anxiety from this Obama show, you know, screw Obama.
	Let's not watch this, it's upsetting you.
	And then she just went into seizures.
	And she was extremely healthy.
	She was extremely um there was nothing, no pre existing condition.
	She just started convulsing and seizing and just went thousand yards there and stopped breathing.
	And I'm not a doctor, but I think breathing is pretty important.
	And I didn't know what to do, David.
	I felt so inadequate and helpless.
	I had no idea what to do.
	Like, should I do chest compression or heimer or I didn't know I didn't know what to do, except to call 911.
	And um and I just held her and she was in this in this state of like uh a comatose state.
	I don't know if she was dying.
	I thought she was dying.
	And then she came out of it from a for a brief moment with this from this look of just terror and fear to this calm and this peace came over her, and she started laughing.
	Hmm.
	And I s I thought like, was this all a joke?
	But she's not that she's not that kind of person.
	And she and she was laughing, and her whole face just and her whole body was just relaxed, and she was at a place of peace.
	And then she clenched back and went back into this convulsive state.
	Wow.
	And I I believe, like she went to the other side.
	I believe she was she was at peace with God for a brief period, and that it just wasn't her time, or she just got sent back, or I don't know, obviously what happened, but I it was extremely.
	Does she have any recollection of that?
	None, none of any of it.
	Your brain doesn't remember that stuff, and probably to protect you.
	But um it was extraordinary, and and it reawakened my faith, and and and this is that was a year and a half ago, and thank God she's healthy now.
	75% of the people who go through when she went went through it was a brain brain bleed.
	75% of the people die that happens to.
	So she was in coma, she had a long convalescence, but thank God she's um she's healthy now.
	Yes, and it it it brought both of us closer to God, and it made me want to dedicate my work to the Lord, and every piece I do now is a devotion to God.
	Every stroke of my pen is a meditation and prayer, and um I want to lean into that as much as I possibly can.
	That's great.
	You know, before you came on, we were talking about what's going on in Canterbury Cathedral.
	Um and and that used to be the basis for why people would make these elaborate cathedrals.
	Was that of a devotion to God and and wanting to honor him?
	And of course, depending on what gifts he has given us, we can all have different ways that we can do that.
	And um, you know, whatever your job is, you can always do it in a way that you try to honor God.
	And uh yet uh what what do you think about?
	Did you see that uh that story where they paid somebody to do graffiti on the interior walls of Canterbury Cathedral?
	Did you see that?
	Yeah, to me it's it's worse than graffiti, it's like it's vandalism, but um, you know, it's like it's so funny because these things that were created in the so-called dark ages, they couldn't make those today.
	And it's because of what you said, is because they weren't doing it for the prophet motive, right?
	They were doing it for the prophet motive, you know, spelled differently.
	And um that's the only way humans can create something like that.
	Your heart and soul has to be in it.
	I mean, you go into those cathedrals and you feel the presence of God, you feel the presence of uh of the highest achievement humanity is capable of, and they did it in the dark so-called dark ages, like with none of the tools, none of the technology we have, like that's right.
	It's it's it's astonishing, and it's it just the the amount of time and human labor and life force and sacrifice and artistry and craftsmanship and skill that went into those things, just that alone is enough to uplift your spirit.
	They're uplifting edifices and and monuments, and um, and today we have monuments like the the 9-11 monument, which is a it's a black box, it's a hole, it's like a giant urinal.
	And you go to the um, you know, that black box um memorial, and it's just like a spinning sucking hole to hell with no light escapes, and it's just it there's nothing uplifting about it.
	That's right.
	So you want to jump in and kill yourself and be sucked into hell.
	So that's the feeling I get when I go there, and and I think in some ways it's appropriate considering that we know what happened there, yeah.
	But um it's just the answer to everything, I think is just we gotta try to live like saints.
	I mean, if everybody lived to the to the better angels, the whole world would overnight become a better place.
	Everybody's trying to fix going to all these marches and protests and all this nonsense, and it's like fix yourself first.
	That's right.
	If you fix yourself, and you just just be a good person, that's it.
	Don't lie, don't cheat, don't steal, don't hurt your neighbor.
	That alone, there'll be no more crime, right?
	Why would there be crime?
	Crime is based on the human doing something that he knows is sinful and knows is illegal and knows is wrong.
	So instead of trying to fix the world from the outside, you gotta you gotta fix it inwardly.
	You know, get closer to God and understand that the infinite power and glory of God is not a separate thing from you.
	It's within you.
	That light is within you.
	And you just need to accept it and and let that connection grow and become stronger with everything you do, and every good thing you do makes it stronger.
	You feel closer to God from every good thing you do, every good work you make.
	I agree.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, it's a very powerful sermon that they actually wound up doing uh uh as a lecturer as to what is wrong with our society, I think.
	Because when you look at the the graffiti, not only did they go into a place that was beautiful and uplifting, and they essentially tear it down with their ugly stuff that they put on it.
	And the most the the ugliest thing about what they were putting on there with a graffiti was what it actually said.
	Uh it was a rage against God and his creation, every bit of it.
	And uh and that's really kind of shows us where our society is.
	Uh so the Church of England is still setting the foundation for England.
	It's just setting a satanic foundation that is there.
	And I think that's satanic.
	I mean, that's a that's a purposeful defilement.
	It's like putting the cross upside down.
	Like everything they do is an inversion, like the pentagram, like the original five point of store was supposed to represent the five wounds of of Christ.
	And so the Satanists inverted it and turned it into the pentagram.
	Um so those symbols are very important, and imagery is important, and and they know that, and they use it to their satanic purposes.
	Yes.
	And the defilement of God and the dishonoring of God, and the and we see the um, you know, the result just look around you.
	I mean, it's like there's demons everywhere.
	And there's demons in high places and low places, and and you know, a society rots from the top down.
	I think it starts with these people who just design these so-called utopias for us, like the AI post-human utopia.
	I think they hate themselves, the misanthropes, and they project their hatred, self-hatred onto humanity.
	And then if they can destroy humanity, they can somehow destroy the parts of themselves that they hate, like in a young shadow sort of.
	I agree, yeah.
	Especially when you look at the transgender stuff.
	The purpose of that is to take very young and uh impressionable people, or maybe even somebody who's an adult and that's very impressionable, like uh uh Christopher Beck, who is a Navy SEAL that they pushed into becoming a training, but it's to train them to hate their body, to hate themselves, uh, and then to engage in self-mutilation.
	And so I I think that is uh truly the satanic aspect of it.
	Tell us a little bit about your project, Jesus, Jesus Park that you're working on.
	You got a um GoFundMe uh attached to that as well.
	But tell us uh about that.
	I think we've got a picture, Lance of uh that you can show the audience of that.
	So uh free funder is the I just started um yeah, I had this I had this dream as this vision, David, of um of this park in this beautiful sort of pastoral natural setting with trees and rocks and and I've done a lot of imagery of Christ and I wanted to create the
	face of Christ out of all natural materials, like his crown of thorns would be actual trees, like you know, so the scale would be enormous, like his face might take up a half acre or more, but it'll be a place of of contemplation, a place of prayer, place of a place of peace, and for me it'll be a labor of love and a devotion to God.
	And um say it came to me in a dream, a download, and and I just feel like um like I have I have to make this thing.
	And well, I still I'm still young enough.
	Yeah which might not be my um so that's what I'm working on right now.
	Um and I I do need some funds to realize it.
	Um talking to some churches and to have land and trying to find the right spot for it.
	Um but I think it would be uh an incredible lasting um monument and shrine, really that uh I hope that people can enjoy.
	And so you'd be able to see uh that the picture that we got, that'd be like an aerial view that uh people would be able to see.
	In my in my vision, you know, I've done models of it, and it's I mean, if it's on a slight slope, you should be able to make out his face from the ground.
	But you won't be able to get the full picture so maybe you know from a drone shot or something like that.
	But you'll be able to see what it is, and and um uh it looks great in my dream, you know.
	Now I just have to make it.
	Have you got any I you haven't got a site for it yet, but are you are you angling for any particular geographical area that would have um large function?
	Yeah, I live on Long Island, and there's this beautiful shrine out on the east end of Long Island, um called Our Lady of the Island, and they have I think about a hundred acres uh of land, and uh there's a beautiful 20-foot marble sculpture of Mary.
	There's an outdoor church that I go to there, and it overlooks the Great South Bay.
	It's just an incredible spot, and um they have a lot of land there, so so I reached out to them.
	Um I don't know if it's gonna work out, but you know, there's a lot of logistics involved, so it's gonna take some planning and a little time, but I'm determined.
	So if I have to at some point just buy a small piece of land, maybe upstate New York, you can get inexpensive land.
	Uh whatever I have to do, you know, I'm gonna make this happen.
	Yeah, it's great.
	Well, you know, uh in Tennessee, uh land is fairly cheap, and they have a lot of unusual sites for people to come see.
	So you might get a lot of traffic there if you put it further south.
	But uh that's a good idea.
	I don't I don't know much about it, but I'll take it right down to Tennessee, why not?
	Yeah.
	Instead of people going to see Rock City, they can see uh the Jesus Park that's there.
	Uh where can people find the uh uh the GoFundMe?
	How do they find that?
	Well, on my you can find all of my thought crimes on if you go just anthonyfrieda.com, Anthony F R. Like there's links to all my um projects there.
	Okay, good.
	And and your book is not out yet, is it?
	Thought crimes of uh Anthony Frieda?
	Is that out yet?
	No, that's not, but that was um the title was inspired by an actual crime that was in happening because of my artwork.
	I did a book cover for CJ Hopkins, who wrote this book, um The Rise and Fall of the Uh of the New Normal.
	And I I I did a takeoff of uh Rise and Fall of the Third Reich, that cover, and I put the COVID mask with the little with a swastika barely visible behind the the mask, the COVID mask.
	And they decided to charge him for disseminating Nazi propaganda in Germany, and he was facing like a year's in prison.
	Yeah, I remember that.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	So that was my book cover.
	And all he did was tweet that cover to get to get it um indicted.
	So that's a literal crime that I've been involved with as an accessory.
	So you can't use the symbols of the Nazi regime, but you can act like Nazis, and that's okay, right?
	No, it's just yeah, right.
	No, but it's selectively enforced because you know, if they're Stern and magazines in Germany, they'll show Trump in full Hitler regalia all the time.
	That's just that's fine.
	Yeah, and it's if it's used for the purposes of the left, they get a pass.
	And and CJ is not even a right wing guy.
	He's just one of these guys who is a skeptic, he questions everything.
	Yeah.
	So It's kind of ironic that they're using this illegal subversion of their own laws, which is something the Nazis would do to prove that they're not Nazis, you know.
	It's like uh there's a lot of ironies there, but um anyway, he has this ongoing legal battle with them, and in Germany, they don't have double jeopardy like we do, so they charged him and he went to trial and he was acquitted, and now they're gonna charge him again with the same crime.
	Just keep it.
	So they can keep charging they can keep coming until they get the verdict they want.
	Wow.
	Wow.
	Uh and it's not a new incident of anything, it's for the same exact thing, right?
	Well, we just had somebody that was arrested here in Tennessee for a meme that he put up, and um they got him in uh you know, two million dollar bond to get him out of jail.
	And again, it was because um and we see this kind of censorship is going on both the left and the right.
	This was about the fact that uh this guy didn't like Charlie Kirk or conservatives, and so there was a school that was going to have an event to honor Charlie Kirk.
	And um he put up a meme that he didn't even create that other people had created.
	It was a picture of Trump, and it was a quote about what Trump had said about a school shooting.
	And it said uh we gotta get over this and move on.
	And so he put that up as his comment about the Charlie Kirk shooting.
	And because the um the place that he did it was something like Perry, Idaho or something was where the high school was, uh that where the shooting had been, and uh this was in Perry County, uh, and they said, Well, you were trying to intimidate people here in Perry County by using this meme that you didn't even create.
	And uh so the sheriff arrested him for that.
	Two million dollar bail.
	We're seeing free speech attacked everywhere.
	Every country, every political philosophy is coming for speech because especially when we're looking at memes or political commentary like you do, um it's very very powerful.
	They wouldn't be coming after it otherwise.
	Yeah, definitely.
	Well, I I'm pretty certain he's gonna win that lawsuit because that's that's rage.
	Uh yeah, I mean, I I'm used to censorship and I've been I mean I know you've been through it too, just constantly deplatformed and demonetized and d this and d that, and it's just you know and by the way, everything that I was you know censored for, turns out I was right about.
	That's right.
	I never got I was right about all of it.
	Every single other thing I said it was mostly about COVID.
	And then I'm also fairly certain I was put on a domestic terrorist because Biden had a list of of anyone who questioned the the COVID narrative was put on a list.
	Yeah.
	And I was a high profile about that.
	So I mean, I'm considered a potential violent, they use the word violent, potential violent uh domestic extremist terrorists if you were questioning COVID narrative.
	Yeah, because they say that you know, speech is violence.
	And uh I say, no, censorship is violence.
	And the people who use and enforce censorship are the ones who usually do resort to violence in one shape or the other, you know, like arresting this guy.
	The sad thing is is that you see that both sides of the political spectrum, and I'm talking about not just the politicians, but I'm talking about the grassroot people are cheering this kind of censorship if they don't like what you have to say.
	We have lost the understanding of the importance of free speech in our society, and that includes America, it's not just in Europe, but it's in America as well.
	People don't realize that uh these uh tools of tyranny will be used against them eventually, and uh have already been used against them in many cases, and they still are cheering this on.
	It's truly amazing.
	I don't know how to get around it.
	Yeah.
	I've never seen the country so divided.
	Um there's no room.
	That's why, you know, the Charlie Kurt thing was so symbolic, because if you're not gonna talk, you're gonna kill each other.
	And people were saying that it's like because they don't want to talk.
	They want to kill.
	And what is that?
	I mean, if you I know you're a great student of history, like where does this go?
	It goes one place, it's called civil war.
	That's where it goes.
	It's like this is nothing new.
	We've seen it thousands of times before all throughout history.
	This sort when when there's a divide of this extreme nature where there's no there's no communication, you're either good or evil, you're either with me or against me.
	It leads to civil war.
	I mean, uh I I don't know how close we are to it, but unless something radically changes, which I don't see any evidence of, um, we're we're in some perilous times here.
	I agree.
	I agree.
	Yeah, we have uh we've lost our foundation.
	You know, we've lost our foundation in terms of the principles that made the West great.
	And uh we've lost our foundation because we turn our back on God.
	That's what we were talking about earlier.
	And uh that truly is the foundation as the Lord Jesus Christ.
	And once we turn away from that, we are adrift as a society.
	And so uh, even though we used to have guns everywhere, now the guns are being turned on each other and being used on us, and there's a lot of different aspects to it.
	I think the uh heavy use of drugs is a part of that.
	I think that even plays a role actually in the uh technocrats.
	I had been told years ago that when these guys would go hang out at the burning man thing that they were dropping uh uh you know, LSD and they were also taking what was that, DMT or something, where they come in contact with machine elves.
	And the interesting thing about this is that uh you hear from the same people who are in different geographical areas, they start talking about how they had the same types of encounters, and uh they're be they're channeling uh technology from these uh entities that they're coming in contact with.
	And you can have people in radically different places that have the same experiences that are there, they even call them uh psychonauts, not nuts, but knots, like an astronaut or something.
	And so that's sort of yeah, it's it's interdimensional travel, I think.
	I mean, they're opening a portal to hell for lack of a better word.
	I mean, this tells another dimension, heaven's dimension, our plane is a dimension, and those drugs somehow, I don't know how it works, I can't even come close to explaining it, but i i it it it it it makes the veil between the dimensions permeable.
	Yeah, and they're able to permeate it with these substances, and it's a dark energy, and we're seeing it, and that's connected to the whole AI thing we were talking about before.
	Yes.
	And these drugs are facilitating it, and you're totally right.
	But but the other thing is when you turn away from God, uh you mean Deepak Chopra said you leave a God-shaped hole.
	So what do you fill that hole with?
	You're gonna fill it with drugs or porn or wokeism or or or it's something, or Satan, you know, it's like it has to be filled because that's part of our human makeup that we we we have to have something to believe in.
	So if you don't fill it with God, the alternatives are anti-human and they're satanic and they're dark.
	You you're taking something that should be filled with light and you're filling it with darkness.
	That's right.
	Absolutely.
	Well, you know, it is kind of interesting.
	I use this quite a bit to uh to attack the pharmaceutical companies, I'd call them pharmacia, because that's the uh that's the Greek term that's used in the New Testament frequently was transferred uh translated as sorcery because people would include these lucinogenic drugs as part of their uh spiritual experience and that type of thing.
	That's very old thing.
	But also it talks about how the pharmacia uh and the great men of the world would not repent of their murders.
	That's how I was using it for the pharmaceutical companies, and I I thought it really fit.
	But that really is is what we're seeing.
	And uh uh with all the technology that we've got and all of this uh idea about how we are so scientific and materialistic and we don't believe anything unless we can measure it.
	Well, that we have seen over and over again is simply not true.
	Uh the people that we disagree with are more than willing to pursue by faith a lot of different things.
	Whether you're talking about the climate change agenda or the uh the pandemic, uh they accept a lot of stuff on the basis of faith.
	It's just what they have faith in.
	They have faith in these institutions, they have faith in people who have credentials uh that say that they're a scientist or an authority and something.
	So it's just a difference in in what they have faith in.
	Uh but I think it's very important what you're doing in terms of artwork.
	That gets to people on a different level than just talking to them straight about the facts.
	You know, whenever we can engage the emotions and art does that, and um, you know, movies do that, and Christians are starting to learn to use the tools of movie making.
	And so I think there's going to be some very important work that is done there.
	But uh gradually the the uh Christian movie industry is picking up.
	But I think there's so much that's been lost in terms of artwork that would move people.
	I think that that what you're doing is very important.
	Well, thank you, David.
	Yeah, and speaking of film, I started working with a film production company.
	I think you're right.
	The answer is to create uh a parallel M and E economy that is in accordance with our values.
	And the values of Western civilization and and and Christendom, things that we have faith in, things that we believe in.
	And um a lot of it's been sort of kind of hokey, kitschy stuff up to this point.
	But we're trying to create uh with Man Alive Media Group, this group I'm working with.
	Right now we're working on a film um about World War I. We're gonna do a film about Joan of Arc.
	And we're trying to make them very high-minded and and to the best of our ability, great pieces of art.
	Because you're right, art speaks on a different uh level than just it's a conversation, different kind of conversation.
	It's like you know, poetry or prose, it's like i it's something that engages our mind in a different way, and hopefully opens up and our mind to this conversation.
	Um we have to be able to talk, and censorship is the enemy of all of us because then we're not talking.
	And if we're not talking, we're probably shooting each other.
	Because we make peaceful change impossible, we make violent change inevitable, as uh Kennedy said.
	That's right.
	And I think it's very important, you know, for the longest time Christians have retreated from the arts, and they feel like the best way to engage people is with a didactic uh aspect.
	And of course there's value in that, but there's another way to reach people, and that is by showing them, you know, and and portraying as a narrative.
	I just talked to the author of uh uh Flags of Our Fathers, who's just done a book on Vietnam.
	He spent 10 years in Vietnam talking to people there, and um his name is James, was it James Bradley?
	I think it was Bradley or Radley.
	I I'm sorry, I can't remember his uh his last name, but uh very interesting guy.
	And um when he did this book, you know, his previous books were non-fiction, uh, but he wanted to do a fictional book because he said there were so many facets and so many different things that he had to use fictional characters to bring them together.
	And so not only does it engage our emotions more so if we have a narrative story, but it also allows us to uh pull together the relevant things in a way that we couldn't if we had to stick to exactly what the true story was.
	And Hollywood knows that for the longest time.
	Go see uh something that's based on a true event, they always change it, always begin.
	This is based on a true story, but the actual characters are fictionalized and so forth.
	They always do that.
	And uh so I I think it's good the kind of projects that you mentioned there, we're talking about people living their life according to Christian principles.
	I think that's probably the best way that uh that can be done, rather than going in to uh the Bible and then fictionalizing that.
	That always kind of rubs me the wrong way.
	Yeah.
	Trying to rewrite it.
	Yeah.
	It doesn't have to be didactic or so blatant.
	Like, I mean, there was great Christian authors, you know, Tolkien and C. S. Lewis, and they they were they were coming up with their own mythology to sort of mirror Christian themes without you know saying literally this is Jesus and this is what happened.
	That's right.
	Um so you know, Christianity to me is the myth that's true.
	Yes.
	But we need to create alternative myths to reinforce that myth to bring people to us because it's just so boring to just sh, you know, tell the same story, even in brilliant filmmakers' hands, like it's been done, and it's so it's it's just gonna turn a lot of people off.
	But if you do it in a way that's creative and original and interesting and unexpected and entertaining and edifying, now it's something different.
	Now it now it's a work of art on its own, not just pastiche and not just biblical scripture translated into film.
	That's right.
	I remember the film critic Brian Gadawa, and uh he he actually was able to do a film.
	I think it was called uh to end all wars.
	I'm not sure about that, but it took place uh American soldiers and Japanese uh in term uh prison camp during World War II.
	But his his whole idea is that very much like you know, I think it was C. S. Lewis who said that the uh Christian myth is the greatest myth and it's real.
	You know, he doesn't mean that it's fictional.
	He just means by myth he means an epic story.
	And uh so that was kind of Brian Gadawa's take on it.
	He said, you know, every one of our the really that's the stories that really resonate with people always have a redemptive arc in the story.
	And he did a really good job with that.
	And uh he also would kind of draw that out in his film reviews that he did.
	But that, I think, is something that, you know, we're not going to be able to fight a culture war if we don't have culture, someone said.
	I think that's exactly true, right?
	I've got to steal that line, David.
	We're going in unarmed, right?
	I mean, yeah, it's stating the obvious, but yeah, I mean, we got to make, listen, you know, it's on us, you know.
	So, I think it's incumbent upon Christians, people who are means, people who are creative, people who have talent or something to give, like, put it towards the cause.
	Because the other side certainly is, you know, the Satanists and the demons and.
	the world lunatic and the Islamicists and the Marxists like they're all on board.
	You know you just watch Netflix and there's messaging in every single thing they do.
	Oh yeah.
	It's all anti-Christian, anti-male, anti-wite, anti-American and it's just I mean it's so ham fisted but they shoehorn it into everything.
	The story does nothing to do with what they're talking about those you know white people are bad like what does that have to do with the comedy I was watching so that's right you know we could do it more artfully there's so many great artists and writers out there that are Christian and we need to come together and and build these teams and that's what I'm trying to do in my own little way.
	That's great.
	So um best place for people to find out how they can uh get your book when it's available and also to uh find out about the Jesus Park if they want to get involved in the GoFundMe would be to go to your website Anthony Frieda and that is freda.com right the best way for them to find you it's always been great talking to you I only had a chance to meet you once and that was up at uh Gerald's uh event four years ago and uh his occupy peace thing and so uh uh when I saw
	that you had a book out there.
	It's like, oh yeah, I'd definitely love to talk to Anthony about that.
	You've got a great story to tell.
	And it's been a great journey that you've been on.
	I really want to thank you for the work that you have done.
	It's been very important.
	And I look forward to a lot more to come from you in the future.
	Thank you so much for joining us.
	Thank you, David.
	All right.
	Thank you.
	Before we run out of time, let me get to some of the comments that are up here.
	And as Lance, my producer, said, Jesus used parables and analogies.
	That's right.
	So we're following in the right way when we use those type of things as well.
	So one of his favorite ways to get a point across was to use a parable, a story about something.
	And in most cases, I think there was at least one or two that were not fictional, but they were all giving a story there.
	And so Crash and Splash 75 says average lifespan of lithium miner, 30 years.
	So enjoy your battery.
	I said like a lot of these things, cobalt as well.
	Cobalt are being cobalt is being dug out of the mines by young children operating at slave wages and a situation that kills them.
	So yeah, that is a, uh, uh, uh, we have to understand that's behind a lot of this stuff.
	Car insurance is now higher to pay for than battery burns, says Jolson's and guard goldsmith.
	Good to see you guard Liberty conspiracy.
	says last year the very U.S. government bureau tasked with promoting EV travel banned EV bikes and scooters from being brought into their Colorado building for fear of fire.
	That's right.
	Jason Barker, nice of the storm good to see you he says uh AI is good for memes but not for real art.
	Meme images and music and that's really you know what it does.
	I mean a meme just kind of picks up on a theme and imitates it and that's precisely what AI is.
	But uh the real danger of AI is not that it's going to become some self-aware uh Skynet thing.
	I think the real danger is that it is a very effective tool for pulling together data and for doing searches and surveillance that can be used to control us.
	That's really where the devil is in that detail.
	Thank you so much for joining us.
	Have a good day.
	Music
	The common man.
	They created common core to dumb down our children.
	They created common past to track and control us.
	Their commons project to make sure the commoners own nothing.
	and the communist future.
	They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary.
	But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God.
	That is what we have in common.
	That is what they want to take away.
	Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation.
	They desire to know everything about us while they hide everything from us.
	It's time to turn that around and expose what they want to hide.com.
	Thank you for listening.
