=== The Saudi Arabia of Lithium (02:28) ===

[00:00:00]  *Tonk* *Tonk* *Tonk* Now you know you're winning the information war when the other side has no response but to resort to censorship.
[00:00:14]  *Tonk* Drain the swamp?
[00:00:18]  We're going to have to drain the privilege out of Washington first because that's what the swamp feeds on, their privilege.
[00:00:24]  They can't stand for people to exercise their First and Second Amendments together.
[00:00:29]  You found it.
[00:00:30]  It's the real news.
[00:00:32]  That's what you have to look forward to.
[00:00:36]  He's not sorry when snowflakes can't handle the truth.
[00:00:39]  It's your host, David Knight.
[00:00:42]  Okay, fine.
[00:00:42]  But if you think that you're getting out of Afghanistan, you're out of your mind.
[00:00:48]  It is the Saudi Arabia of lithium.
[00:00:51]  Let me remind you something.
[00:00:53]  I'm a consummate note-taker.
[00:00:55]  I think it's very, very serious, as you can tell.
[00:00:56]  And I've got my legal pad, so that means something, I guess.
[00:01:00]  June 13, 2010, look this up.
[00:01:02]  An article by James Risen, New York Times.
[00:01:05]  June 13, $1 trillion.
[00:01:08]  In untapped mineral deposits, iron, copper, cobalt, gold, lithium.
[00:01:13]  Internal Pentagon memo.
[00:01:15]  The Saudi Arabia of lithium.
[00:01:17]  They said we're going to transform it into the biggest mining center in the world.
[00:01:21]  Not to mention this...
[00:01:23]  There you go.
[00:01:24]  And the lithium is not just to tranquilize us, it's to make car batteries because they're pushing everybody towards electric batteries.
[00:01:31]  Lithium is a key component.
[00:01:32]  And so they're going to ground zero.
[00:01:34]  That's why they're always follow the money.
[00:01:36]  We said that the other day.
[00:01:37]  As a matter of fact, Ron Paul, when he's live tweeting on this, said we're there for the minerals because it's not just lithium either.
[00:01:44]  As you point out, it's the Saudi Arabia of lithium, but it's also the rare earth minerals that are there as well.
[00:01:49]  Well, that's also, that's Africa.
[00:01:55]  You found it.
[00:01:56]  It's the real news with your host, David Knight.
[00:02:01]  You think our information's hardcore?
[00:02:25]  Now, 20% stronger.
