➡ This text discusses the murder of Charlie Kirk, a prominent figure who advocated for open debate and free speech. The author highlights Kirk’s efforts to engage in respectful discussions with those who disagreed with him, even in environments where free speech was often suppressed. The text also mentions the potential for escalating violence when peaceful dialogue is stifled, and the ongoing threat of censorship from both political sides. The author emphasizes the importance of remembering the human impact of such events, like Kirk’s children growing up without their father.
➡ A prominent figure named Kirk, who founded Turning Point in 2012 to counter liberal dominance on American college campuses, was shot. Despite disagreements, he was known for his open debates and traditional values. His assassination led to various reactions from media outlets, with some speculating on the political implications rather than focusing on the human tragedy. The shooter remains at large.

They also mention the questionable security of real estate due to interest rates and the impact of tariffs on the economy. The speaker suggests that tangible assets like gold and silver may be safer investments. They also touch on the political implications of potential interventions in Venezuela and the strategic accumulation of silver by countries like Russia.
➡ Trump’s conflict with the Federal Reserve could lead to lower interest rates, which may boost gold prices but also increase inflation. This is concerning as it could erode the savings of Americans and harm the global economy. There’s also worry about the rise of stablecoins and the potential loss of small banks, which could lead to a cashless society and increased surveillance.

The text also explores the idea of replacing the Federal Reserve with a single individual or a small group, which could lead to more control by large banks and the government. The discussion concludes with the suggestion of a parallel economic system based on gold and silver, and the potential for silver prices to increase significantly in the future.
➡ Tony, the owner of Wise Wolf, has repurposed an old Bank of America branch in Denison, Texas, into a drive-through for buying and selling gold, silver, and bitcoin. He believes he’s the only one in the world offering this service. Despite many people selling their precious metals, Tony encourages investing in silver due to its potential value. He also hosts a program discussing various topics, including the mysteries of 9/11.
➡ The U.S. has seen a significant drop in its trade freedom, falling from 8th place in 1995 to 53rd out of 165 countries in 2022. This decline is due to increased tariffs and stricter controls on the movement of capital and people. High tariffs not only tax Americans but also hinder economic growth and prosperity. Despite claims from the White House, the revenue generated by these tariffs is lower than stated and is causing a rise in the cost of goods for Americans.
➡ The text discusses various conspiracy theories and controversial topics, including the role of Mossad in global operations, the influence of Israel on the US, the possibility of civil war, and the denial of science in the COVID-19 pandemic. It also touches on the 9/11 attacks, suggesting they were part of a long-term plan, and speculates on potential gun control measures in response to a shooting incident involving Charlie Kirk.
➡ The text discusses the debate around gun control, suggesting that stricter laws may not prevent incidents like shootings. It also touches on the potential for increased surveillance and police presence in response to such events. The conversation then shifts to economic topics, discussing the value of gold and silver, the impact of tariffs, and the state of manufacturing in the US.

➡ The text discusses suspicions about the Trump administration’s actions and their possible connection to Jeffrey Epstein. It criticizes the dismissal of these concerns as a hoax and suggests that these issues are awakening people to potential lies. The text also mentions prayers for certain individuals and criticizes a perceived effort to control and dumb down the common man. It ends by encouraging the sharing of information and support for thedavidknightshow.com.
➡ The article discusses the rise of politically motivated violence in the U.S., with several high-profile assassination attempts, including that of Charlie Kirk. It suggests that this violence is a result of divisive political rhetoric and the normalization of such behavior. The article also warns about the dangers of assuming all liberals are violent, while emphasizing the importance of dialogue and understanding in addressing these issues.
➡ The article discusses the increasing violence and division in politics, with a focus on the recent assassination of Charlie Kirk. It emphasizes the importance of dialogue and understanding to prevent violence, and criticizes both left and right for contributing to the current hostile climate. The article also highlights the need to uphold the rule of law and to not let partisan politics overshadow our shared humanity. Lastly, it calls for prayers for Kirk’s family and criticizes the celebration of his death on social media.
➡ The text discusses various topics, including a shooting incident, political tensions, and the potential for escalating conflicts. It emphasizes the need for caution in rhetoric and actions to avoid escalating situations. It also mentions concerns about government overreach and the potential misuse of power. Lastly, it touches on the use of drones in warfare and the risks they pose in triggering conflicts.
➡ The article discusses a recent incident where Russian drones entered Polish airspace, with some posing a threat and being shot down. The Polish military is now searching for the remains of these drones. The article suggests that this could be a tactic to escalate tensions and involve NATO in the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine. However, it also mentions that some drones may have gone astray due to jamming equipment used in defense, and not all incursions were intentional.
➡ The article discusses a situation where Russian drones allegedly violated Poland’s airspace, which has led to debates about whether this was a deliberate act or not. NATO is assessing the situation, as it could potentially trigger Article 4 or 5 of the Washington Treaty, which could lead to military action. However, the article also points out that the invocation of Article 5 is not automatic and requires agreement from member states. The article also mentions various opinions on the situation, including those who believe it was an accident and those who see it as a reckless act by Russia.
➡ The text discusses various topics including the potential for civil war, the impact of universities, and the influence of political figures. It also touches on the dangers of escalating fear and division in society, the importance of staying vigilant and keeping faith, and the consequences of war and violence. The text emphasizes the need for peace, prayer, and understanding over violence and division.
➡ The speaker discusses various topics, including the state of America, censorship, and conspiracy theories about 9/11. They express concern about the direction the country is heading, and criticize media personality Tucker Carlson for his upcoming documentary on the 9/11 attacks, suggesting it will be filled with misinformation. The speaker also mentions a leaked document related to an assassination attempt, and criticizes the education system for causing societal issues.
➡ The text discusses the importance of sticking to principles, particularly the second amendment, in the face of potential gun control measures.

The text suggests that gold remains a stable investment amidst global uncertainty and monetary changes, and even those who have invested in bitcoin are starting to accumulate gold as insurance. The text ends by emphasizing the need for real and authentic value in a world filled with artificial wealth and manipulated economies.

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 Thursday, September 11th, year of our Lord 20, 25, 24 years after. And we do have some updates about 9, 11. But we’re going to focus to begin with on the horrific murder of Charlie Kirk. And at the same time that was happening, we have Donald Tusk, the prime minister of Poland is doing everything he can to drag us into World War Three through NATO. It is a very dangerous time that we live in. One of the things that I tweeted.

Well, I’ll talk about what I said yesterday on Twitter, but we’re at the middle of a fourth turning, aren’t we? We’ll be right back. Well, I think the best response that I’ve seen from anybody about Charlie Coconut Kirk, and I know everybody has already heard the news. I hope you’ve not seen the shooting. I’m afraid I did. Bothered me. This is what was put out on lifesite News. Yeah. The thing to take away, really, is that there are two young children that are going to grow up without their father now. Yes. This is what John Henry Weston put up.

And he said to focus your prayers. That’s what you should be thinking about. Yeah. That’s what a lot of people don’t think about, which is when we look at murder and we casually blow people up because they are foreigners or because they’re on a suspected boat or whatever, they have families, too. And this violent culture that we live in is truly the amazing thing here. You see, this is a medley here where they have his children that he’s interacting with very young children. He himself was very young. The murderer is still at large. Dash Patel first announced, announcing that they had apprehended him and then saying they didn’t.

So they had gotten somebody right away who had been shouting abuse at Charlie Kirk. Here’s the thing. You know, if I want, if you’ve watched this program, you know that I have big differences with Charlie Kirk. He has been a huge cheerleader for the Trump family. And so it’s not about that. It is about the fact that we need to be able to speak. And that was one of the things that Charlie Kirk did that was right. He would go to places where they disagreed with him and he would try to openly debate people in college, which colleges are trained not to do that.

They keep saying speech is violence. What they mean by that is that if you say something they don’t like, they’ll get violent. The same way that when they talk about hate speech, they really mean they hate speech, they hate free speech. And so he went to the places where they were being trained to hate speech, and he put up a sign, you know, prove me wrong. And he would debate them on various issues, political, religious, you name it. And that, that’s the way that it should be done. You know, Charlie would have as guests people that he disagreed with, and he would let them speak.

He didn’t just scream at them. He didn’t call them terrorists or this or that. He just, he let them speak and he, he interviewed him with that. And I would disagree with him on a lot of issues, A lot of issues. But again, because, you know, he put himself in the position to be an apologist for Trump. But, you know, he went on Gavin Newsom’s first podcast and the two of them had a civil discussion. Gavin Newsom, that tells you that he really did believe in debate. I mean, if ever there’s going to be somebody that you’d be tempted to have an ad hominem attack against, it would be Gavin Newsom.

But that was good and that was the right thing to do. And I think that it shows us just how dangerous things are. And yes, it is where the left is coming from. However, let’s understand, let’s not feed this left, right hatred and civil war. Let’s understand that the right is equally capable of trying to cancel the other side. And they’ve shown this time and again, they don’t like what somebody says, they will seek to cancel them, to get them in trouble as well. And this censorship has been marching left, right, left, right. It doesn’t matter whether it’s Republican or Democrat in control of Congress and the presidency, they all are still pushing speech control.

Have you ever heard, can you remember ever hearing in recent memory any politician pushing back in general against hate speech rules? No, they just keep extending it. And they have different things that they hate. That’s what the different parties are about. But they all hate speech. And that’s where Charlie Kirk was a bit different. So ironically, he was, as he was speaking, he was, he was being asked about the shooting violence, and he says, do you mean gang related or whatever? And at that point he was killed. But there was another shooting yesterday in Colorado at a school.

Two killed, plus the killer was killed in the school. Again, this killer free. And as Greg Gutfeld said, it had a professional feel to it. That was a very, very long shot. It was reported by an error by some outlets as 200ft. But it was 200 yards. And I think if you look at the shooting map, you can see just how far that was. It was, it was, I think, 200 yards. So, yeah, it had a very, very profound professional feel to it. But here is Charlie Kirk talking about what he did on campus. I go around universities and have challenging conversations because that’s what is so important to our country, is to find our disagreements respectfully.

Because when people stop talking, that’s when violence happens. I’ve never seen someone do this. Well, it’s a growing trend because people like me are facing violence, assault. The left. Yes, the campus antifa. I’ve been stormed out of Russia. I’ve been assaulted publicly. Multiple death threats. Okay, so what’s your goal? There’s more people that agree with me than some people would actually believe. And they come out of the woodwork when I do stuff like this. We record all of it so that we put it on the Internet so people can see these ideas collide. When people stop talking, that’s when you get violence.

That’s when civil war happens because you start to think the other side is so evil and they lose their humanity. Yeah. And so as I pointed out yesterday, there have been five assassinations or assassination attempts in the last year or so. And so it is. We are at a fourth turning. And as he pointed out, you know, you make. It’s kind of a paraphrase of what someone said, accurately said, that when you make. Was it JFK said, when you make peaceful change impossible, you make a violent change inevitable? I think I’m paraphrasing it and I don’t remember.

Yeah, that’s the general idea. So this is Jason Chaffes, who actually represented this area in Congress before he retired. And he talked a little bit about the shooting on Fox News. Fox News contributor Jason, you were there. I could hear how upset you are in your voice. And I think we, we all are feeling it and I just. But you were there. So. So what? Tell us what happened. Yeah, that happened like 35 minutes ago. I was there. I was up kind of on the second level because I wanted to be in the shade. But our daughter was there, son in law was there, my wife was there.

Friends, this is our community. And you know, there’s 2,000 or so people. The Utah Valley University is our largest university. 40,000 students. And people came out to hear the dialogue, the back and forth. Ask him anything. That’s what turning Point Charlie Kirk’s all about. Ask him anything. First question was about religion. He went on for about 15, 20 minutes. Second question, interestingly, was about transgender shooters, mass shooters. And in the midst of that, the shot rang out. Now, I happen to be watching Charlie. I can’t say I saw blood. I can’t say I saw him get shot.

But as soon as that shot went out, he fell back into his left, and everybody hit the deck. Everybody. A lot of people started screaming, and then everybody started running, as you might expect. That’s the thing. I think that’s why Gutfeld said it had a professional feel to it. This is not somebody who’s just angry in general and wanted to shoot up the place and kill everybody that was there. It was very focused, very targeted, and very accurate. But there’s a sick censorship mentality behind all this. You know, for the longest time, when I was growing up in college, the left was all about free speech.

And that’s, like I said before, both sides can censor what they don’t like. And so at that point in time, you had the conservatives running the Vietnam War. You had most of free speech was protest about that. And they were being pushed pretty hard by the college administrations to shut up and to shut down the protests. And so, you know, they hid behind the First Amendment. As soon as they got in power, they got much worse than the right had been. And so, you know, he says they put out a petition. As he pointed out, this was the largest Utah university, I believe, 40,000 students ahead of the tour.

A petition was created Aug. 29 by students who did not want Kirk to visit the university. Utah State University has consistently worked towards fostering an inclusive space for all of its students and families. So they want to exclude him. This is the blatant hypocrisy of these people. They want to exclude people that they disagree with. We must not be like that. Letting a figurehead whose speeches often seem to undermine the essence of inclusivity. Now, he would allow everybody there, people he didn’t agree with, and, you know, they could ask their questions, they could make their statements and let people decide what they agreed with.

Do they even know the meaning of hypocrisy if they taught them that at that university, out of 40,000 students there, they had, in a short period of time, 6,000 of them signed the petition before it was closed, the day before the event. So that’s about 15% of the students immediately signed up to say, we don’t want to hear anything. We don’t want to close our ears, close our minds, and shut your mouth. And this is what I’ve seen from the Very beginning, when Karen and my daughter were protesting at an abortion clinic in Austin, they had signs that said, abortion is black genocide.

And they were there for a short period of time, and then these antifa radicals showed up, and they didn’t have anything to say. They didn’t want to argue. Oh, no, it isn’t genocide. It’s not murder. As a matter of fact, Karen got a viral clip of one woman looking right in the camera saying, I kill my kids. I’m proud of that. But there was a guy that was focused on Karen, and we were covering it live at Infowars, and he comes there with just a black sign, a black sign, said nothing on it. And he put that sign in front of Karen’s sign, and she moved her sign down.

And so then he moved his sign down, she moved her sign up, and the two of them were going up and down, up and down. But that was the whole point. He just didn’t want her to say anything. He had no argument, he had no ideas. He just wanted to silence the other side. That is reprehensible, and that’s the kind of person that does this type of shooting. Except, like I said, it certainly looked professional. So you can ask yourself, is this going to be used as an opportunity to increase the police and surveillance state? And I think it will be.

He founded turning point in 2012 when he was only 18. He dropped out of college to do so, and he was an early supporter and a key supporter of Trump’s presidential campaigns all the way through this. As I said, I strongly disagreed with him on that. I thought it was counterintuitive to all of the policies that he would argue eloquently for. Turning Point’s USA mission was to counter what Kirk and his allies saw as liberal dominance on American college campuses. He cultivated a style of political engagement heavily reliant on confrontational public appearances. That’s what we used to just call debate.

Oh, it’s confrontational. Oh, he is pushing the buttons of these people. Right again. He was the one who was truly inclusive, not like the left. He promoted traditional values, often encouraging young women to prioritize becoming homemakers and mothers over professional careers. But he would also. This is one of the things I criticized him for. He would also virtue signal by bringing in homosexual activists and defending them as conservative and as Christian even. And so there was this contradiction that was there. But, you know, probably all of us have contradictions in our lives. Kirk often openly criticized programs related to diversity, equity and inclusion, as they call it.

Dei, a major proponent of Christian nationalism, arguing that there is no true separation of church and state in the United States. And again, he was right about that. Somebody’s religion is going to prevail. Somebody’s religion is going to be the basis of our laws. The question is, whose religion is that going to be? And so he was right to oppose that, I think the separation of church and state. And we don’t want to establish a religion, but we want to have the free exercise of it, which is where the left was. At the same time that they were radically out there promoting the idea of free speech for their protests, they were also trying to shut down the free exercise religion back in the 60s.

And we’ve seen what’s happened with that. So the shooter is still on the loose even as of this morning. There was an elderly man that was there hectoring him and people thought that he was the shooter. They took him away. There were pictures of that, but he was not the one. They all agree that there was a shooter about 200 yards away on a roof. And the interesting thing is some of the reactions like msnbc. This is even from Mediaite, which is a left wing, anti Trump publication. The headline is MSNBC failed the moment after Charlie Kirk’s assassinations as media ITE his killing is never a political story first, it is a human one.

And in the moments after the news broke, the country needed sober coverage and space to absorb the shock. But what he got from MSNBC was something else entirely. The aggressively progressive network reported the news of a conservative thought leader being shot, an apparent victim of political violence. How MSNBC treated this news was a massive test that they sadly failed. Everybody is talking about. Within seconds, reporting that he had been shot, anchor Katie Tur speculated about whether Trump might use the Charlie Kirk shooting as justification for something bad. Her guest, MSNBC contributor Matthew Dowd, suggested Kirk’s own rhetoric bore responsibility.

Hateful thoughts lead to hateful actions. Well, there you go. See, speech is violence and so it justifies our violence against somebody. Alan Smith wondered if conservatives might now do something similar to taking over Washington. All of this as viewers are just learning that Kirk had been assassinated. Mediaite says the instinct to immediately translate grief into partisan analysis wasn’t just jarring. It revealed how msnbc, and by extension much of the left leaning media ecosystem, has lost its ability to see political violence as anything other than fodder for political for partisan storylines already in place. And again, Mediaite, if anybody is part of the left leaning media ecosystem, it is Mediaite.

And even they called out what MSNBC did they say. Contrast that with how CNN and Fox News handled the moment. Both networks largely stuck to the facts, emphasizing the shocking nature of the act, confirming details as they came in, leaving space for the human toll. Fox anchors went further, condemning political violence outright while steering clear of speculation. Cnn, not usually shy about analyzing politics, showed entirely appropriate restraint. They treated Kirk’s killing first as news, then as a strong argument against political violence of any stripe. You know, I include political violence in that. I include war, and sadly we don’t.

It’s amazing because when you start these wars just because of somebody’s geopolitical ambitions, because they want their name on a country or because they want the oil that some country has, it’s eventually going to come back and you’re going to have people dying who have young children and families just like Charlie Kirk. They might be wearing a uniform when they die, but that’s still what’s going to happen. At a time when American might, Americans might reasonably expect a moment of civic pause, a suspension of the endless partisan frame. MSNBC defaulted to reflexive politics, as did many figures in alt media, as I call it the nudge news, screaming Democrats are terrorists.

It’s just, you know, let’s not feed this partisan divide again, you know, as I said, even though I disagreed with Charlie Kirk on many issues, he was there to make a statement and to argue and to debate these issues. And the issues are what is important, more so than the people. And MSNBC delivered knee jerk politics and doing so revealed just how low the bar for journalism has fallen, says Mediaite. And they’re absolutely right. One of the things that they said which was truly amazing, they said, well, we don’t know if maybe he was shot by one of his own people in celebration.

As if that is something that ever happens at any conservative rallies. That’s. I’ve seen it happen at Muslim weddings. That’s right, that’s right. That’s the only place I’ve seen it. So Afghanistan or Iraq, where they have a wedding and they’re shooting guns off in the air, those bullets are going to come down somewhere and they’re just shooting them straight up in the air. Shoot a bullet straight up in the air, it falls at the terminal velocity of the bullet, which typically isn’t enough to kill someone, but they typically are doing a lot more dangerous things than that.

Yeah, that’s right. So we don’t know if this is a supporter shooting their gun off in celebration. Isn’t that ridiculous? That’s msnbc. So we have no idea about this, but following up with what was just said, he’s been one of the most divisive, especially divisive younger figures, constantly sort of pushing this sort of hate speech. It always goes back to hateful thoughts that lead to hateful words which lead to hateful actions. In other words, it was his fault. He shouldn’t have just shut up and let them change everything. Charlie Kirk was an extreme moderate. He, he said nothing was controversial.

It’s stuff that would have been the standard Republican party line from 10 to 15 years ago. Yeah, I’ve never once heard a position from Charlie Kirk that I thought was in any way extreme. It all sounded very much boilerplate to me. Yeah, it’s very moderated. Yeah. Yeah. And that’s one of the reasons why he was able to grow his organization. So that’s part of the reason I didn’t listen to him. I thought he was to milquetoast. I didn’t think he went far enough. Yeah, you are the hate, said Anna Polina Luna, unloading on liberals after the Charlie Kirk shooting.

So again, we don’t want to fall into this either. She screams at the Congress. Every one of you who called us fascist did this. And again, the article that I tweeted out about it, I said, yes, he would debate people, which is what we need, and that’s why he was hated. Just having debating ideas is enough to get you killed, evidently. Did you notice that America has had five assassination attempts in a year? Said rt. The US is bearing witness to an alarming trend of politically motivated violence and high profile assassination attempts. And they say the US has entered a disturbing cycle of political violence.

It’s called the fourth turning. In the past year alone, multiple high profile assassination attempts have shaken the country. And so they include of course, Charlie and the shot at Trump, which I don’t know whether it was real or not. It was political. Minnesota House speaker assassination. A guy went to their house and shot them dead. They were not out speaking or doing anything and they were Democrats. And then in Illinois, Nick Fuentes, on December 18, this last December guy, showed up armed with a pistol, crossbow and incendiary device at his house, or I guess his parents house, while he was live streaming.

Nick doesn’t live with his parents. Oh, he doesn’t? Yeah. The individual turned out to be a triple homicide suspect who was shot and killed by police following a chase shortly after the encounter with Fuentes. So that’s kind of interesting. Triple homicide suspects. This guy was serious. Yeah. You know, you first look at this, it’s Like a crossbow and incendiary device. It sounds kind of cartoonish, but he was, guess, going to blow the house up after he killed him. So Kash Patel jumped in and was saying that the subject had been arrested, but then he walked that back and said the subject in custody, I think he meant to say suspect, but has been released after interrogation by law enforcement.

So they don’t have anyone yet. They said on the radio traffic they were looking for someone who was dressed all in black with a black bag, sunglasses, and a long gun. So I don’t know if they had any. There hasn’t been any surveillance footage released. I don’t know if they had surveillance footage on the roof or whatever, but there were a lot of people who had caught some figure moving on the roof at a distance. But you couldn’t see anything. Yeah, yeah. After the manhunt was underway, Jesse Waters expressed doubt that the assailant was being captured.

Says if you look at the geography around the area, you can just walk down from that building, get in your vehicle and be in the mountains in 10 minutes. You could be at the airport in Provo in five minutes. I’m a little worried that this manhunt is going to go on a long time because if they don’t have this guy now, there’s no telling where he could be. And as one of them said, Kennedy said as they were talking about on Fox, it is a message meant to silence people, an act of terrorism, because although Kirk was not a politician, he was political and he was powerful.

His power came from joy and igniting a movement and being really, really convincing. That person intended for this assassination to silence everyone who agrees with him and to silence everyone who wants to go out on a limb and make their case and refute so much of what especially younger people are being fed. And I think that is absolutely true. You know, we must not be cowed down by these types of threats. Did you want to say anything? What do you think? Just what’s your thing? It’s. I’m very upset by this. I’ve seen hundreds and thousands of leftists online celebrating this.

Really just reveling in the fact that Charlie Kirk is dead. And so I understand not wanting to create more divide, but to put it bluntly, there is no real accord with these people. You want to try to reach them, but you have to treat them like a dangerous animal. Yeah. They will turn on you. They will sell you out. They will do everything in their power to harm you and your family. They have no compassion. They have no mercy. They hate you, the antifa, LGBT and everything. We’ve seen that. Just your standard, everyday, average liberal. Yeah, the wine mom down the street, the woman that works the counter at the bakery at your local grocery store.

These are the people that are celebrating. It has spread everywhere. It is not just antifa anymore. We saw those articles about how, you know, 55% of liberals think that violence is acceptable, that murder of a political opponent is fine. It has gone mainstream. The majority, or at least 50% of liberals now think that this is an acceptable form of political dialogue. You shoot the guy. That’s what they believe. And again, you want to continue to reach out to people. You don’t want to give up on that. But you have to be careful. You cannot assume that these are going, they’re going to engage with you in good faith or in the same way.

They’re not all going to try to shoot you, but they will probably do what they can to make your life miserable, whether it’s called CPS on you or anything like that. There was a video not that long ago of one of these, you know, liberal debaters that’s popular on TikTok who had a disagreement with some guy and because he disagreed them said, well, I’m going to call CPS on you and maybe some people in our audience can dox you. These are the type of people and this is the type of tax tactics that they use. It has become commonplace.

Yeah, I agree. Colleges have seized on this and have done their best to amplify the worst aspects of human nature. Lance, it’s a sort of total war mindset for speech and debate. It’s, well, if you say something that I disagree with, then I am justified in doing whatever I want. It’s the equating speech to violence and all the hate speech laws and all the propaganda is all just a part of that push. I agree and I want to be clear. It’s just I know that. I know liberals that are saddened by this, that are wounded and they hate this, they hate to see this.

And I know there are a lot of people that still on the left that don’t believe this way, but there are a lot who do. So you have to be careful. Don’t just assume that they’re one way or the other, but guard yourself as well. Yeah. You cannot give up on dialoguing with people. Again, it’s important to try to reach out and to have conversations and to reach these people in a, you know, cordial manner. It’s, you know, we don’t want Violence, we don’t want to devolve into that because once it starts, it’s not going to stop until it has become a mass scale tragedy.

You know, once a revolution starts, it plays itself out one way or the other. Yes. And you don’t want that. However, you need to be careful. You need to understand where a lot of people on the left are coming from. And to ignore that is to put yourself in danger. It is to put yourself at risk. Yeah, it is. It is far more prevalent on the left than it is on the right. It does exist on the right though. I mean, you were talking about the Minnesota speaker of the House, a leftist who is. I haven’t looked into that much.

I don’t know if the other guy was a hardcore right winger or whatever shot her. But the bottom line is that unless we have. Have you seen anybody in any political party stand up for free speech lately? I haven’t. I mean, I see. It’s like if you criticize what they hold dear, if you criticize the Gaza war. Right. What does Trump want to do? He wants to deport you. I mean, they come up, they’re exactly the mirror image of the left, except that they haven’t started the kind of violent acts that we’re seeing on the left now.

So often it’s like every week another leftist political shooting trainee or this or whatever. And so yes, they are getting violent with that. But we need to not get drawn in, I think into the partisan left, right, Hegelian dialectic, that dialectic that they want to do because that’s also part of their Marxist philosophy. And that’s where this is coming from, Marxism. Eric Peters had an excellent op ed piece talking about that, how this is a hallmark of leftist Marxist totalitarianism. But remember that it can be done by the right as well. And you already played it once today.

But that clip of Charlie Kirk on campus I think is going to become iconic in context of this. I can play just the beginning of that again if you want. Yeah. Now let’s play it again. We’ll take a break and we’ll come back and we’ll take some of your comments. I go around universities and have challenging conversations and I’m. Because that’s what is so important to our country is to find our disagreements respectfully. Because when people stop talking, that’s when violence happens. I’ve never seen someone do this. Well, it’s a growing trend because people like me are facing violence, assault the left.

Yes, the campus antifa. I’ve been stormed out of restaurants. I’ve been assaulted publicly, multiple death threats. Okay, so what’s your goal? There’s more people that agree with me than some people would actually believe. And they come out of the woodwork when I do stuff like this. We record all of it so that we put it on the Internet so people can see these ideas collide. When people stop talking, that’s when you get violence. That’s when civil war happens because you start to think the other side is so evil and they lose their humanity. You’re listening to the David Knight Show.

Welcome back, folks. We’ve got a lot of comments to get through. We’ve got Radisbrough. Thank you very much. Radis, bro, that’s very generous. He says, in my opinion, I think they used a drone. The description of the suspect could be anyone. And I think that’s the point. I haven’t even seen a description of the suspect. I have no clue. Marky Mark nj Thank you for the tip. He says, david, we must follow the Old Testament commands to eliminate the heathen. There’s no peaceful coexistence with these people. There’s no coexistence with them. It’s either them or us, period.

Well, I think that’s one of the reasons why we create government that is to protect our lives and liberty. But an important part of that so it doesn’t become just total anarchy. And so we don’t fall under a totalitarian government that seeks out any of us, is that we have to follow a rule of law. And unfortunately, all those things are broken now. That’s the whole point of these fourth turnings. We got B.L. houghton On a better note, Charlie was worth 12 million, so his wife and kids are taken care of. Well, I’m glad that they will have money enough to be comfortable.

However, I’m sure that all of them would say they would give up all of that to have him back in their life. That is. It’s very sad for the children. And the fact that this video, the videos of him being shot exist means that most likely those children are going to encounter it at some point. They’re going to live with the knowledge that that video is on the Internet and they’re going to eventually see it. And knowing how awful and disgusting people on the Internet are, some people are going to send it to them once they’re older.

KWD 68. Why didn’t Trump send in Bradley’s in 2020 to stop BLM? Yeah, I think again, I think that the powers that be, both Republican and Democrat, want this. And that’s why we must not feed this left, right, divide. Yes. Go after the people, the violent groups on both sides who are doing this kind of stuff. And we need to stand strongly with the rule of law and with local police forces. That’s a key thing. And we need to stand on the values of always look at this. And when I try to stay within, it’s very easy to just give yourself over to partisan politics or whatever.

But I try to moderate that with the fact that I am a citizen of heaven, a disciple of Christ. And that is the point where we need to think about this. That’s what’s going to bring us back, folks. There’s no salvation in any of these political philosophies or these political parties or these political prostitutes that we have. Yona, anywody, prayers for the breathing, surviving family of Charlie Kirk. Yeah, keep them in your prayers. Denver. Attaway. Good thing the cops tackled that old bald man with a little white hair and glasses because he looked like the suspect, a real Jason Bourne, you know, so the real perk could get away.

That video popped up immediately after the shooting and I was, I. I couldn’t believe it was him. The first time I saw it, it’s like, there’s no way. There’s no way. Yeah. Yona, any wodi. To be fair and honest, I detested Kirk’s opinions, especially his pro zionist, pro genocidal stance. Yeah, I didn’t mention that. His faith. And he is still my human brother, despite our differences. Rest in peace. Yes. Yes. Yeah, we’ve made our differences clear with Charlie Kirk on those things. We have made it clear that we do not agree and in fact, vi legitimately oppose his stance on zionism.

But it’s still, to me, it’s heartbreaking to see a young father be taken from his family and upsets me greatly. Yona, here’s the elderly man. Yeah, it’s just. That’s not. I mean, I don’t really know what an assassin looks like, but to me, I don’t think that’s it. Yona anywody went on FB this morning and all my liberal high school classmates were high fiving like dancing Israelis over Charlie Kirk in September 11th. I’m telling you, it is become mainstream. It is. So I don’t pay much attention to social media anymore. I mean, I should because I have to comment about it, but it just disgusts me so much what has become.

I was on Facebook and I have seen multiple posts with thousands upon thousands of likes celebrating and making fun of the assassination of Charlie Kirk. Yeah, yeah. Twitter is bad enough, but, you know, they are X. But I’m not even allowed on Facebook or YouTube. That’s how badly they want me to figure they could get rid of me without a bullet. They could just cancel me off everywhere. So I guess I got off easy. And again, it’s. You don’t want to give up on dialogue, you don’t want to give up on trying to reach these people, but you need to understand how they feel about you.

It does you no favors to go in. Oh, yeah. It does, you know, favors to not understand that these people would turn on you in a second. Yeah. You don’t be naive. You don’t want to give in to hate. You don’t want to treat them the way they would treat you, but you need to understand how they would treat you and comport yourself accordingly. Yeah. Just like when we talk about government, you know, we say our politicians or whatever, we don’t want to project our values on them. Normality or whatever, you know, these are psychopaths. And so I’ve always said many, many times, we always underestimate the evil that these people are capable of doing.

Just like, you know, we’re talking about here on the anniversary of 9 11. We always underestimate their. How evil they are and we underestimate their technology as well. So, yeah, a culty sim. I saw the Kirk footage before I knew the context. No fair. Made so many people throw up and be very upset. I heard about it. I saw the distant angle first and, you know, you can’t see much from there, I think. And I thought, well, you know, maybe he’s okay. Maybe, you know, he got grays and he’ll be right. And then I saw the other angle and I immediately knew there was no way.

It was too much blood. And. Yeah, you saw it first and told me. I looked at Drudge and I followed the link there and that was a close up. And I was like, oh, man, it was graphic. It’s very brutal. It’s the trouble. Yeah. We have Douglug saying I didn’t see any witnesses. They spotted the shooter before the event on the roof. And Dougalug, thank you very much, that is very generous, says thank you. David and Sons hit the like buttons and help spread the word. Yes, thank you. We don’t tell you to do that enough, but thank you for reminding us, Dougalug.

And thank you for the tip and Skunk Hollow Rose Gardens. Thank you for that as well. He says, make Doug’s 10 at 20. Well, thank you very much. Douglas said they spotted the shooter before the event on the roof. Well, I know I saw a video of someone scurrying off the roof later. I didn’t know he was spotted beforehand. Brit belly. I did see a video of him prone then moving on the roof. H Z. Put one step in front of the other, and soon you’ll be marching off to war. It’s a dangerous business, Frodo, walking out your front door.

Doug Lug. I know that shooter had to walk by at least 50 cameras. Let’s see if Cash can put his money where his mouth is. Fran. I kind of felt like 9, 11 yesterday, there was. It’s. There’s something happening. People are upset. Well, again, it is the time that we’re in, and there is. So I say we need to keep a lid on some of this rhetoric. Understand, it’s just like situational awareness. You need to understand that there are threats out there to you personally, but we don’t need to escalate. I think one politician said, let’s dial the temperature down a little bit on some of this rhetoric.

And so when people are out there saying, you’re the terrorists, you’re this, you know, they’re justifying, you know, shooting and killing people because they don’t need much justification to do that. As we saw down in Venezuela, as we have seen in Gaza, as we have seen everywhere, governments don’t really need any justification to kill people. So we don’t want to start a civil war. And as we look at that and we look at what happened in Charlotte, that horrific thing as well, the Trump administration is trying everything they can to try to get the federal government involved in that.

And clearly, the, you know, the Soros prosecutors and people like that that are there in Charlotte cannot handle it, will not handle that type of thing. But that is a local problem, and it has to be a local problem and locally solved or not solved. I mean, one of the solutions to that is just to get out of there. If you live there and if you can’t change it, just like Chicago, but to federalize it. And that’s what they’re doing. They’re trying to find an excuse to get the Department of Justice in. You’ve got Duffy at the Department of Transportation is trying to say, well, that was a train.

So that’s our jurisdiction. No, it’s not. And I don’t want to have centralized policing that is very dangerous. And I don’t want to have a government that violates the Posse Comitatus law at will, because that’s there for a very good reason. The most dangerous gang out there is the government. So we have to be careful that they don’t use these events. They could be very well, just like we see in 9 11. They could be the ones behind them for all we know. I’ve got a comment here from Think, Eric. Just for the record, as a hunter with a rifle, 200 yards is not professional distance.

If your hand is steady, that could be anybody. Rifles are accurate at 300 yards plus. Okay, so we’re not hunters. I do a little bit of. We do a little bit of shooting now and then, but, you know, we don’t have the base of knowledge. You do. Yeah. Yes. Let’s see where I was. And neither does Greg Gut feel, but, you know, the guy had his. Was able to escape. So there’s that aspect of it as well. You know, he wasn’t just some angry person taking random potshots at a crowd. Yeah, it was. He took that one shot.

At least I believe it was only one shot. Yeah, he just left. Yeah. We’ve got Dougalug. When they put Charlie in that suv, he was definitely shot. Not a fake blood bag. You can see him without a shirt on. Lots of blood. If you look closely. Yeah, I don’t. Well, if you see that video that was linked to the top of Drudge Report, there’s no question that that was a real shooting. That was not fake. I still don’t believe the Trump thing. He needs to sell a product. Whatever used to heal his ear, he needs to have it sell that as a treatment.

Trump miracle ear. You know, it’s just grows the ear right back. But that was real. That was real. It was very sad to see. Yeah. Wes Robertson, 448 says no one will ever know who assassinated Charlie. Well, I hope they do find who did it. And sadly, I think he might be right. Defy tyrant 1776. Trump will use this as excuse for bigger police state, gun control, or both. Yes. Government has purposely created all this hate and division while every one of them are laughing behind closed doors. North American house hippo. Thank you very much. That is generous.

I disagree with Dave’s assertion that Hollywood will never show a realistic depiction of the FBI. It’s already been done. The X Files. Nine seasons and one movie of coverups, corruption and deceit. X Files, one of my favorite TV shows. I never saw. I never saw Glenn Eastwood’s movie about Jagger. Hoover Jagger, I think is what he called it, but I think he kind of showed Jaeger for. For what he was. But certainly he did the Richard Jewell story. That was very, very effective and an important story. And, boy, they work hard to take that down. It was amazing to me because I watched the movie because they were so adamantly opposed to it.

And the way they took it down was they said, oh, well, you know, you implied that there was some kind of a. An affair between this reporter and an FBI agent, and that is a slander against her. Shame on you. And they tried to. Me, too, Clint Eastwood over that and made it a scandal to try to keep people away from the movie. But that was a very important movie to show the FBI as it really is. Yeah. S.A. miller. 123. Charlie did believe that Christ was the way to salvation, and he was a great advocate for pro life and also spoke against LGBTQ and transgender.

Yes. I have seen a lot of different clips of him talking about Christ and salvation. And while, again, I disagree with him on Zionism, I think he. Personally, I do think he may have actually been a Christian. I do think he believed, and I hope he did. Yes. You know, it’s not on us to judge. That’s right. We never know. Only God can see the heart. Yes. We have another clip on the board of the guy talking about how Kirk was talking about his faith right before his death. Go ahead and play that. So I just need to find it.

Oh, okay. Well, I’ll tell you what we’ll do. We’ll come back to that, because I want his wife and the country to know that. The last question he took, the last thing he talked about to people in Utah, thousands of people that wanted to come hear him, is that his message was one of love of Jesus Christ, of his belief in prayer. And he talked about that from his heart, and you could feel it. And he’s done that multiple times before. But I consider it an honor to be there. It makes me mad. I’m so mad that this happened in our backyard.

It’s an embarrassment. Now, I gotta tell you, I used to be in Congress. I represented this area. We’re better than this. But there’s somebody out there who’s evil. Absolute, total, complete evil, and they need to be taken down. Our law enforcement, I love them. They got to do a better job. There is no communication. You have a hundred thousand students between BYU and the University of Utah. They say, somebody’s in custody. Then they say, oh, well. Well, it’s not the shooter right now. Police are still pouring in. It’s almost three hours later. They got to communicate with us.

Is there a shooter that’s still out there? And if so, what are we going to do to catch this evil person and make sure that he receives justice? That’s what we’re feeling in this community right now. But his message of love, of God, of Jesus Christ, is one that I hope is part of his lasting legacy. Yes. And that was something that he would debate people on and when he would go onto campus. Thank you, Lance. I forgot that I. I thought I played that. I forgot to play that. Let’s talk about the attempts to get us involved into World War iii.

That also happened yesterday. NATO air defenses shoot down Russian drones over Poland for the first time. Oh, so Russia attacked Poland. Not so quick. That’s not actually what happened at all. NATO airspace was violated by a huge number of Russian drones overnight, said the Prime Minister of Poland, Donald Tusk, who has been itching like Zelensky to start World War Three. So he triggered NATO’s Article Four while the alliance militaries directly shot down Russian drones for the first time. This is an issue with drones with autonomous killing machines, robots and things like that. You always have the issue that they could actually trigger a war.

And what happened in this particular case? There was a massive attack by Russia into Ukraine with drones. And it’s been going back and forth, both sides doing the same thing. They said last night the Polish airspace was violated by a huge number of Russian drones. It was actually 19 of them. And Tusk said that three or four of the 19 drones which entered NATO airspace posed a threat and were shot down. The others came down by other causes, including running out of fuel. And the Polish military is now searching for remains, has asked the public to remain vigilant and to report and to find wreckage immediately.

So they don’t have wreckage and these things ran out of fuel. Does that sound like a military attack, or does this sound like what I think it is, is some of these drones going astray? And of course, part of what happens during one of these strikes is that they do use jamming equipment to try to confuse the navigation of the drones as part of their defense. If you remember Restovich, the guy who said in 2019 that in three years, in 2022, there would be direct war between Russia and Ukraine. He was kind of frank and he got fired because he pointed out in one of these attacks, when Russia sent in some cruise missiles, one of them hit a civilian building, like an apartment building.

And Zelensky tried to parlay that into international outrage and tried to build the war off of that. And Restovich said, it hit that building because we shot it and damaged it and then it veered off and hit that building. So the question is if they are using jamming equipment to confuse these drones, is that what happened with this? There were 415 drones, according to their count, that were fired into the area. And 19 of them, they said went astray. That’s a pretty low percentage, I think is about 4% or something like that. But in some cases the drones crossed into Polish airspace from Ukrainian airspace, with the Ukrainian air force stating that it had detected eight drones overflying its territory and heading toward Poland.

Others flew directly into Poland from Russia’s lockstep ally Belarus, which lies to its north and east and occupies some historic Polish territory. There were no injuries or fatalities in Poland, but some property damage was recorded, including a home which local press said had its roof blown off. Four airports in Poland’s east were closed overnight. Tusk told his parliament this is not because a threat had been identified to the airports themselves. So this is not Russia taking on Poland as the Prime Minister tried to imply. And yet he wants to escalate this to NATO involvement. So clearly their own narrative to try to escalate this is contradicted by themselves.

The military needed clear skies, he said, for intensive all night operation. The airports reopened the next day. Tusk called the incursion into Polish airspace an unprecedented violation. Said most likely were witnesses to a large scale provocation. I think that’s what his speech was. This is the first time Russian drones have been shot down over the territory of a NATO country. Well, do they actually have the drone wreckage? He said before today. Article 4 has been activated seven times in the past, most recently in 2022 at the beginning of Russia’s renewed invasion of Ukraine. An emergency message sent to mobile phones and Poland read, attention, inform services about drones and locations where they fall.

Do not approach them. So again, they’re still looking for them. It was the Ukraine air force said they shot down otherwise downed 386 drones and 27 missiles out of the 42 missiles sent and the 415 drones. Rogue drones and missiles have found their way into Poland in the past over the course of the Ukraine war. So he’s not telling the truth about that either. Such incidents accepted as accidental but dangerous. Yet the incursions overnight were distinct for their increased number and the sustained duration. Zelenskyy made it clear that he views this as an attack on NATO.

So he wants to escalate everything, testing the limits of what is Possible. Well, this reminds me of the narrative that Zelensky and Donald Tusk, the Polish Prime Minister, are doing. Reminds me very much of what we saw during the Syrian war in Trump’s first term, and I think actually into Obama’s term, where as they would encircle an area that was the Syrian forces would encircle a town and heavily shell it. They were constantly trying to say that they had attacked them with gas because that was the one thing that the west was aching for as an excuse to get involved.

And it never was true and it never would have made sense for Assad to do that. Now after years of this, they decided during the Biden administration to just go ahead and invade anyway. And you saw that with the A10 Warthogs and that was the end of the Syrian war there. But they were always looking for an excuse to put boots on the ground. So he had the white hat helmets, if you remember saying they gassed everybody and it was a lie. And so what Donald Tusk is doing is equivalent to the white helmet provocateurs shouting that everybody was gassed.

That would be the one thing if they. Why in the world would Russia, what motivation could they possibly have, or Belarus even for that matter, to send drones into Poland? That would be the one thing that would invite a larger war and a NATO attack. They’ve made it very clear. And that’s why it is so important to them that Ukraine never have NATO membership because they don’t want to have these tripwires for NATO involvement. So the Russians must feel the consequences, they said. Russia must feel that the war cannot be expanded and must be ended, says Zelensky and NATO.

They who do not want the war ended, they want it escalated. The BBC noted that Moscow media also promulgated the claim that far from being Russian drones over Poland, the aircraft were in fact a Ukrainian false flag attack intended to draw NATO into the conflict. Well, whether or not they were, the rhetoric of Zelenskyy and the Polish Prime Minister is intended to draw NATO into the conflict. The Belarusian government, a full throated ally of the Kremlin, which is in a nuclear weapon sharing agreement with Moscow and which lets Russia use its territory to launch attacks into Ukraine, put out a substantial statement on the incursions, claiming that the drones had gone into Poland by accident.

Ukraine of course, having launched its own drones against Russia as part of the proactive defense, as it does every night. Some drones lost their track as a result of the impact of the party’s electronic warfare. It is certainly true that to save ammunition, Ukraine does attempt to redirect or to bring down enemy drones by using electronic countermeasures to confuse the onboard flight systems, crashing them harmlessly away from built up areas. Indeed, this has been cited as a reason behind the previous single case of drones and missiles crashing in Poland’s borderlands in the past. Western capitals are unlikely to smile on the Belarusian suggestion that this was essentially Ukraine’s fault, even if the drones were indeed Russian.

But it does not give them the rationale to draw NATO into the fight, which is what both Zelensky and Tusk would like to have. Belarus also claimed that it had proactively cooperated with the Polish government throughout the night, asserting that it had notified Warsaw of lost drones it was tracking as they approached its airspace. Our forces and equipment on duty exchanged information on the air and radar situation with forces and equipment on duty in Poland and the Republic of Lithuania. In doing so, they alerted them to the approach of unknown aircraft to their country’s territory. This allowed the Polish side to respond promptly to the actions of the drones by scrambling their forces on duty.

In fairness, it should be noted that the Polish side also informed the Belarusian forces on duty about the approach of unidentified aircraft from the territory of Ukraine into the border of the Republic of Belarus. And so this is what happens when you have war you can have. Not everything goes according to design and, and the people who want the war are going to seize on it to escalate it. Zelensky urges joint Air force air defense with Europe after Russian drones downed in Poland. I have no reason to claim that we’re on the brink of war, but a line has been crossed, he told the Polish Parliament.

The situation brings us the closest we’ve been to open conflict since World War II. That was the Prime Minister Tusk. Belarus said the drones lost their way, also shot down over its own territory that were coming from Ukraine. Polish Military Operational Command called the drones an act of aggression. Tusk said he had activated Article 4 of NATO’s treaty, under which alliance members can demand consultation with their allies, that he was in touch with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, who would dearly love to have a massive war. I mean, he tried to starve his own people when he was Prime Minister of the Netherlands.

That’s why they put him in his backup position at NATO. Rutte called the incursion reckless behavior, irrespective of whether or not it was deliberate, because they know that it was not deliberate. So they’ve been calling this, well, okay, we’re not going to be Able to prove it was deliberate, but we’ll say it’s reckless anyway. Article 4 of the Washington Treaty only eight times, this is the eighth time it’s been used, does not trigger a military action. And it’s only. This is the eighth time it’s been used since NATO was established in 1949. As Patrick Buchanan used to say, we have set up these tripwires all over the world to drag us into every conflict, but that’s really not what’s dragged us in these conflicts.

I mean, we seem to start them on our own. We don’t even need to wait for some kind of a tripwire. So again, we’re in the position of NATO first, not America first. F35 fighters helped to down Russian drones over Poland. And we’ll have to wait and see what happens with this. And the way this is reported by National Security Journal, F35s to the Rescue. These people cannot see the bigger picture. They’re still playing war like their children. Trump’s response on Truth Social was a terse statement for him, but one that no other leader but Trump would ever consider.

He said, what’s with Russia violating Poland’s airspace with drones? Here we go. Is that the way he’s going to declare war? Here we go. Here we go, boys. Russian Defense Ministry said that it carried out attacks on Ukraine overnight, but that no targets in the territory of Poland were planned for destruction. The drones allegedly crossed into the Polish border, did not exceed 700 kilometers into it, so that’s what, about 420 miles, I guess. Tusk suggested that the incident couldn’t have been accidental since a significant number of drones entered Poland. Well, it was only like I said before, 19 out of 415, by their own count, about 4%.

And there’s a lot of things that are happening in the midst of that. NATO Secretary General Mark Ruda said the alliance was assessing whether the incident was deliberate, whether it was intentional or not, it was reckless. So they already know it was not intentional, but they are using this nevertheless. Article 4 calls for Member states to consult whenever territorial integrity, political independence or security of a member is threatened. And if it is, and they take it to Article 5, and that is the founding of the Treaty of NATO. The stipulates the parties agree that an armed attack against one or more of them in Europe or North America shall be considered an attack against them all.

They agree that if such an armed attack occurs, each of them, in exercise of the right of individual or collective self defense, will assist the party or parties so attacked. By taking forthwith, individually and in concert with the other parties, such action as is deemed necessary, including the use of armed force to restore and maintain the security of the North Atlantic area. This is why we should be out of NATO. We do not want to have legal obligations that drag us into this. But notice that the purpose of war was to restore and to maintain the security of the North Atlantic area.

That’s what wars used to be about before they became preemptive. Before somebody attacks us, that should be the way that it’s done. But we should not be drawn into every kind of war with this. Invoking of the article 5 to attack is not automatic. Following an attack on a member state, the other members come together to determine whether they agree to regard it as an Article 5 situation. This is not even really legitimately an attack. You can make a stronger case that, you know, when you look at America and Iran, the accidental shooting down of that commercial airliner, that was clearly an accident.

We have, though, done assassinations. We have done bombings of Iran and that type of thing. It’s just so who knows what these people are going to do? Keir Starmer called for the drone incursions, called them an egregious, unprecedented violation of Polish and NATO airspace. So it’s like we were attacked from Canada. Mark Carney called Russia’s incursion reckless and escalatory in a post on X on Wednesday, adding that Canada stands a Poland and NATO allies. Well, the people who are trying to escalate things are their Ukrainian and Polish allies. So again, I’ve given you the case that Russia pointed out and the 19 separate violations happened over a period of seven hours.

And a lot of these were fell to the ground because they ran out of gas. They were not shut down, and they were not necessarily attack mode. It’s just like they got sent off. They were lost, obviously. So the Ukrainians are dreaming about dragging NATO in the conflict, says rt. And we have seen this for the longest time. They want to drag everybody in. They want to drag the entire world into a war. There. Tucker Carlson exposed Mark Cuban’s hypocrisy on Ukrainian aid. When asked about US Funding for Ukraine, Cuban voiced partial support, saying, half of my family is Ukrainian.

So, you know, personally, I think we should help, but I don’t have a studied answer for you. Well, Tucker Carlson was there at that program, and he said, how much money have you sent to Ukraine personally? And he said, none. Oh, so what do you mean by we then? You’re the one whose family’s from Ukraine, why don’t you send them a billion dollars? He said. Cuban then tried to pivot, claiming that he was just trying to fix health care. Carlson swiftly countered. Well, why don’t you fix their health care? If you’re like so deep, if you think that we need to help, why don’t you start with it? How about you first? I noticed that’s never even an option for anybody.

It’s like we need to help. That’s not what charity is. Forcing other people to help is not charity, said Carlson. And again, I agree with him on that. We’ll talk about Carlson and 911 coming up here. But the, you know, as many people said, you want to fight this war? Go ahead and suit up, Lindsey. They don’t do that. And here’s Mark Cuban, multi billionaire. He’s got half his family is Ukrainian and he wants taxpayers and Americans to get involved in the war and to send equipment. He won’t do anything to help. A growing bloc of Republicans is opposed sending more money to Ukraine because the long standing corruption that is there.

But Ursula, who is fond of lying, is hedging her bets. You know, even if they can’t get a World War Three there in Ukraine, she says we are on the brink of a global health crisis. The battle lines are being drawn. Again, always a war stance with everything and their rhetoric. She is someone who has always in the past said we have to go to war against speech. Now she’s looking at a global health crisis that maybe they can do it with that. If they can’t get World War 3, maybe they can do some kind of a pandemic that’s fake and achieve the same type of thing.

She warned that Europe is on the brink of multiple critical challenges, including a health crisis. We are on the brink or even at the start of another global health crisis, she said. And she declared that battle lines for the New World Order based on power are being drawn right now. It’s kind of interesting. Used to be when one of these people like George W. Bush would talk about a New World Order. New World Order, I’m a New World Order. When they would do that, it would make a lot of headlines. But now nobody even notices. Even when Status quo.

Yeah, even when it’s somebody like Ursula fond of lying. But again, it’s all about before we go real fast, it seems the FBI has come out and said that they have found what they believe is the weapon that was used to shoot Charlie Kirk. And they said they found some shoes that were left and some imprints of different Parts of his body. So we’ll see. Again, it’s the FBI saying this, and we all know how trustworthy the FBI is, but that’s what they’re saying right now. Well, we’re going to take a quick break, and we’ll be right back.

Excellencies, ladies and gentlemen. Dear Klaus, your annual Global Risk report makes for a stunning and sobering read for the global business community. The top concern for the next two years is not conflict or climate. It is disinformation and misinformation, followed closely by polarization within our societies. In a world of deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act. You are listening to the David Knight Show. SA Foreign defending the American Dream. You’re listening to the David Knight Show. Welcome back, folks. Yeah, we’re still ironing out some bugs in the studios. We had to change it around, but.

Yeah, but welcome back. We’ve got a lot of different comments. I want to say thank you to Mike. Thank you very much. That is generous. It’s because of your support that we’re able to keep the show up and running. Says apparently Steven Crowder had posted something about an hour ago with more information about the shooter, the gun, and potential motive. Well, maybe we’ll have to check that out. Yeah. You were saying during the break that they thought that it was somebody of school age. Yeah, college, he said the suspect appears to be of college age. Is what’s appearing online.

Drudge has it linked in red at the top left. See, that’s the thing. These universities have become Marxist seminaries. I’ve said this for the longest time. They’ve been pushing and pushing and pushing hate for years. This. We’re now seeing this coming to fruition with Andy Faw and the rest of this stuff. And of course, there’s a lot of different places where you can find a lot of very violent rhetoric coming from the trans community. You had those trans radicals that were up in Canada that killed several people a few months ago. I don’t know if any of you heard about that, but that was something that was going on.

So there’s a lot of very violent people on that side of things, and they did not like Charlie Kirk. We’ve got S.A. miller. Thank you very, very much. That is incredibly generous. Lance, are you able to scroll that? Thank you. She said, God gives and takes away. We do not let Satan steal our joy and we do not fear. We were made for such a time as this. Stay vigilant. Keep your eyes on the Lord. He will sustain us. Yes, that’s Right. And, you know, I think if Charlie Kirk, as he was, as I said, you know, he was spending a lot of his time talking about Christ talk, and he has that kind of perspective.

And for somebody who has that perspective, you know, that this is not the end. And so we just hope that that is really the case with him. Yes. North American House hippo, thank you very much. Says, as Michael Rivero would say, here’s your rifle, here’s your parachute, here’s your orange jumpsuit we have left over from Abu Ghraib. Watch your head climbing into that transportation place. Yeah, yeah. And now Epstein Island. A lot of chatters at infowars are screaming for a civil war. We don’t want that. Yeah, see, that’s the whole thing that. That’s. That’s one of the reasons why Alex was not touched with any of this stop steal stuff that he ran because he is useful for them.

He is the right side equivalent of deranged antifa. That’s what he’s pushing. Civil war would mean mass death. It would mean. Yeah. Atrocities that it would be hard to imagine during the American Civil War. I forget what percentage of the American population was killed, but it was a very substantial amount. It was huge for the south, especially, because they didn’t have that larger population to start with. It was a massive percentage. And you’ll never know because they rigged the stats that we were supposed to believe. How many died for you? Oh, yeah, that. Yeah, that. Yeah.

Nice round number. 600,000 casualties for each side. Do you really believe that? I mean, there’s no way that it’s going to be something like that. And that doesn’t account for civilian casualties either. But there’s no way that it was exactly even. They did that because they didn’t want to. They were trying to tamp everything down and lower the temperature. People were tired of having. Having war. And that’s why the Insurrection act that the Democrats wanted to use against the January 6th people, that was pushed by some Republican radicals in Congress after the war. But you had the President issued a blanket pardon to anybody that had been in the Confederacy because he did not want to continue the war.

And I said, when all that stuff happened, I said Trump could issue a blanket pardon to the people of January 6th. There’s a precedent for it, number one, for that very act that they were coming against people for. And I said, the problem is, is that both Republicans and Democrats are trying to push us into a civil war at this point in time. They’re not trying to tamp it Down. Yeah. I mean, that’s part of the reason that all the military bases that they put in the south to keep eyes on them were named after famous southern generals.

That’s right. They’re like, oh, look, see, we’re gonna name it after your guys. Isn’t it great? You know, we. Yeah. I’m also reminded of the start of the Civil War. People didn’t think it was a very big deal back then either. A ton of people thought this was going to be a minor distraction. The first big battle, a huge crowd of spectators showed up with picnic. That’s right. Yeah. First Manassas. Yeah, they were. They showed up just to watch it. They thought it was gonna be like a sporting event. They were quickly horrified at what happened and turned into a very large battle.

But, yeah, everybody thought their side was just going to walk away with it and it was going to be a short duration. Not amount to much. No, not at all. War is never quick. It is never easy. It always spirals out of control. Nibiru 2029 Today’s division is a gleaming example of success. Obama’s presidential legacy. Yona any wodey now is not a time for violence. But peace and prayer must take precedence. Reject the devils and their paths. Yes. Don’t frag me, bro. When you can get people to believe in absurdities, atrocities aren’t far behind. That’s good.

Yeah. M. Sellers. He was definitely reaching the young people. Yeah. I mean, there’s a lot of people that are actually. Kirk was one of them. There’s others. Mama C, 1996. We murdered babies in the womb by the millions. Why are we surprised when we start to murder? For differing opinions. I agree. I fully agree with that. Yeah. We just don’t get video of that. They assiduously try to keep that quiet. That’s why that animated film, the procedure was so important because that was based on what the horrified ultrasound technician saw. Didn’t know that he was going to be part of an abortion.

And he witnessed the reactions of the baby recoiling in pain and fear as it was being ripped apart limb by limb. Yes. Jimmy. Jimmy Oakham won. 200 yards of the average deer rifle isn’t sub moa minute of angle. For those that don’t know that term, 2 to 3 inch group is great. A headshot. Turning it to a neck shot could easily be out of a professional sniper’s hands. There we go, man. Militia. Seems everyone is so tribal now. Yeah, yeah. I take back. You know, Greg Gutfield doesn’t know enough about guns and Neither do I to make that kind of a statement.

So it’s what you were saying as well. Exactly. About that. That looks like they didn’t just for drop enough and wound up with a neck shot rather than a headshot. It’s again, I don’t know enough about guns either. I do a little bit of shooting, but not enough to definitively say one way or the other. And there’s just not enough information to make any definitive statement at this point. So I just, I refrain from it. And I suggest most people should as well until we have more information. We may never have more information. Big Brit is back again.

I would have thought security cameras would have been inside and outside the school building. Well, I guess they just need to. They’re working on retrieving information from flock cameras. Yeah, we got flock cameras everywhere. Yeah. Skunk Hollow Rose Gardens. Drones flying around with countermeasures for RF attack are hazardous to wildlife and us. Yes, they’re definitely hazardous to our freedoms. Pxmac the left really went south after Obama got elected and things definitely got more tribal after Obama’s election. That was the thing that bothered me so much. If you remember, they had those students, it was some black students who were dressed up in paramilitary gear and they were marching around as Obama was campaigning in 2008.

And there were a lot of people who were concerned about that. And yet now you see that, you know, they’re doing provocative things to get the left very concerned about that as well. That’s what Trump is involved in. Both sides are trying to escalate this and trying to escalate the fear of the other side. We’ve got Wes Skunk Hollow Rose Gardens. Looks like Poland will be back to back starters for the world wars. That’s a, that’s a rather ignoble, ignoble award to win. Wes Robertson. 448. The Ukraine War is driving competition betwixt nations in the development of technology that will ultimately be used against each nation’s people.

War generally does lead to technological leaps. It’s just not technology that people generally want. And as Madison said way back when, he said weapons instruments of war abroad will be used as, as instruments of tyranny at home. And that’s exactly what they intend to do. They’ve even talked about that with Ukraine 2030. Remember, I played that video several times. Well, in the future we’re going to be able to have everything that you interact with the government on is going to be part of this app that is going to control your life. Navy Doc 04. Thank you very much.

That’s very generous. Thank you. I wish I had more words to say, but what else can I say besides thank you and that it is because of you all that were able to keep doing this. Says thank you for the coverage. It’s quite a sobering day to be an American. It’s been a sobering year. Sobering few years to see. Yeah. What America and the people have devolved into and just how ready and willing they are to sell out everything that this country stood for to either score a point against the opposing side or out of fear of what’s happening.

And it’s truly sad. Yeah. Skunk Hollow Rose Gardens, Nepal Falls weeks after they decided to join brics. I guess they’re going down like a sack of bricks. Yeah. They. They have been a totalitarian Marxist regime that’s focused on. On censorship. And we could hope that maybe some of the other regimes like that, maybe the EU even could learn a lesson. But no, they’re not. They’re going to push on because they would love to have an excuse to attack the population. Well, speaking of attacking the population and the government doing it, Tucker Carlson claims that Israeli spies knew about 911 attacks.

I think they probably did. They may have assisted the CIA, but I think that it was our own government that did it. And I think they have teamed up on a lot of things, including the Epstein stuff. Interesting thing, I think about this though, is that Tucker Carlson has a forthcoming documentary series on 911 attacks. You think he’s going to walk back any of the lies and spin that he’s been doing for a very, very long time? I mean, go back and think about what he did with Building 7. Remember this claims. Do you have any other 2005? Sure, sure.

Let’s start with the collapse of Building 7. Can you roll the video clip that I sent to you? Yeah. This is an engineer with 911 Engineers for Truth. Maybe there’s some kind of code. You just don’t show the collapse of Building 7. I don’t know what it is. They don’t care if you think the earth is flat, it’s not a threat to anyone. But if you say, like, what actually happened with Building 7, like, that is weird, right? It doesn’t. Like what is that? Right. If you were to say something like that on television, they’d slip out.

They would flip out. So you’d like, lose your job over that? Why? They just admitted that’s why he did that. Just before it collapsed on September 11, 2001. It had not been Hit by an aircraft, it had been damaged by falling debris and fire. But by 5:20pm Most of the fires had been extinguished. Although the building was 47 stories high, it doesn’t fall sideways nor collapse unevenly. For this to have happened, all of the building’s vertical supports must have given way at almost exactly the same time. Yet just a coincidence, the Emergency Management Agency reported that the collapse was due primarily to fire.

But what does it look like to you? Yeah, there it is again. Silently. Now, Tucker Carlson had had this physics professor on PhD in physics and he came on to actually show that and he asked Tucker several times and Tucker absolutely refused. And then over the years, Tucker would mock people. He’d say, why don’t we talk these people about 9 11. They always ask you things like, you know, what’s the melting point of steel and what’s the burning temperature of airline fuel and all the rest of stuff. These people are crazy. He knew completely. Tucker is such controlled opposition, it’s disgusting.

And so he’s going to do a documentary series on 9 11. You think there’s going to be any truth in that? Is he going to have interviews from his family in the CIA? Yeah. Will he go back and give this guy a chance to talk again? We’ll have to see. It was kind of interesting because the closest he’s come to walking any of this stuff back is to admit that he lied in order to keep his job on network television. So he was complicit in the COVID up. Now he’s going to produce a documentary. Sure, yeah, yeah.

As you were introducing the guy saying that he was a engineer for architects and engineers. That was when Tucker was saying, oh well, we can’t play that, sorry. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He absolutely refused to do it. Multiple times the guy asked, can we just show people a building falling and free fall? I mean it’s right there. And so Tucker Carlson says, well I didn’t allege that Jews did it. I don’t even know what that means. I think in fact saying things like that is a way to discredit real questions. He would know because that’s his job.

He discredits real questions. That’s what Alex Jones does. And his father, Tucker Carlson’s father, worked for the CIA and their Voice of America stuff. So they know how to do propaganda, they know how to nudge people. They’re pros at it. And he’s done that now for two decades. And so now he’s going to flip the switch and turn 180 degrees and he’s going to tell us the truth? Is he really. Is he going to go back and admit that he lied to us? Is he going to admit that what he said was a lie, whether it was deliberate or not? No, he’s not going to do any of that.

As I said before, I think, yeah, there was cross pollination between our intelligence agencies and theirs, just like there was with Epstein. We know that a group of Israeli art students who clearly were not art students, clearly some of them aligned with the Israeli intelligence, were arrested, held for some time in the US before being released without charges. We know that a group of them, I’m quoting from an FBI document, not the Internet, filmed the attacks on 911 and seemed to have foreknowledge of those attacks. This is at a time when not every person had a cell phone that you could just flip out and start videotaping.

Right. The first sightings of Israeli art students date back to the late 2000 to late 2000, when they began to show up at US federal law enforcement and military agency buildings trying to peddle artworks and to socialize with agents. The students repeatedly appeared at unmarked locations and hidden side entrances, even visited some agents at their homes. According to media reports at the time, at least 140 Israeli nationals engaged in such activities were arrested between early 2001 and 911 attacks, while a further 60 were detained shortly after. Moreover, some of the groups of the students reportedly rented properties in close vicinity to the residencies of the 911 attack perpetrators.

I think it was the US government. They probably worked with, maybe even exploited some of the Israelis. When I look at this kind of stuff, what Tucker is doing now, don’t trust them. Because what it looks like to me is what these people are doing with the so called pandemic of COVID They’re trying to distract attention away from the real bioweapon, which was developed by our own government, by DARPA and by the Pentagon, and distract attention away from Trump who deployed it. And so they’re saying, oh, this was a lab leak out of China or something like that.

Look, China was complicit, just like all these countries were in selling the pandemic to the world. You know, they circulated all this information about how people were and film of people falling down and collapsing in the streets, which I. That was the thing that convinced me that it was fake. But China was selling the pandemic, marketing it to people just like Trump was. Think about that. They’re all on the same side. Who is it that’s pulling the strings of all of these countries at the same time on both sides of every political divide. So again, be very careful about Tucker Carlson’s so called documentary.

It is going to be filled with disinformation and misdirection. So there’s a little bit more info so on the Gateway pundit. This is from this morning. Says breaking alleged leaked ATF doc claims weapon near Charlie Kirk’s assassination site had cartridges engraved with transgender and antifa phrases and symbols. Steven Crowder posted this to Twitter. You know, I don’t, I don’t know if there’s any provenance given so far, but Steven Crowder was the first person to get the leaked manifesto of the Nashville shooter as well. So maybe people do send him things. Again, these influencers that are out there, the nudge media, you have to ask yourself what is it that they’re going to to do with this? I said before I think that the training people are crazy.

But let’s understand how they got crazy. They got crazy because of our school system. It’s our institutions, our government institutions that are gender gaslighting these kids and mutilating them, among other things. They don’t want to talk about fixing that, do they? No, they want to use this for their own purposes, saying we can identify a group of people and call them dangerous and then take away their guns. And even if these people are dangerous and the guns are taken away, that that is the precedent that they want to establish. Just like Trump and Biden both work to try to establish gun control by executive order.

We’ve got was taking a question about trans mass shooters when he was shot. That’s right. That’s interesting timing. If it is true that there was, you know, trans stuff on the shell casings. Might have been a case of waiting for a question like that. Yes. Yeah, exactly. Well, who knows? All I can say is we have to stick to principles and we have to understand that don’t let these people frame the problem because they’re going to sell you a solution that is not a solution. It’s going to push you to what they wanted to happen all along.

And so let’s stick with the second amendment and let’s fix the schools or end them. Instead of ending the second amendment, let’s end the government schools. That’s what I say. Well, we’re going to take a break and we’re going to be joined by Tony Arterman and we’re talking about the massive changes that are happening fiscally and economically. So stay with us. We’ll be right back. Sam, you’re listening to the David Knight show. Welcome back, folks. It is a time of rapid change, and one of the things that is rapidly changing is gold. So we have Tony Arteman of Wise Wolf Gold and Silver joining us.

And again, you can get to his site by using DavidKnight Gold. Let him know that you came through us and you can gradually start to accumulate gold. You can have a real savings program, something that will preserve its value. He’s set up a wolf pack where you can buy in at different levels and just do this on a monthly basis. It’s a great program. Something I don’t know of anybody else doing. Thank you for joining us, Tony. We’ve had. Well, it’s always a pleasure to be here. I’m glad I get to talk to Travis this week as well.

That’s right. He’s here as well. Pull a double this time. A dual mind. Get to answer some questions. You’re right. There’s a lot of changes going on. You know, I think I’d frame that maybe a little differently, David. There’s a lot of changes going on with the fiat currency system and the monetary system of the United States and around the world. But I think gold and silver have basically remained the same. I mean, they have, they’re the stable coin, gold than we did. They’re the real stable coin. The real stable coin. Yeah. Well, there’s, there’s a lot happening with, with gold in this monetary reset.

And it is interesting to watch something. I’ve been curious. You always followed the gold silver ratios and today it’s about, I think it’s about 88 ounces of silver to make 1 ounce of gold. But I started running the gold to bitcoin ratios and that’s been an interesting metric. If you actually go back to the end of 2024, it took about 40 ounces of gold to make one Bitcoin and now it takes 31.1. So there’s a bit of big leap in gold. Even though Bitcoin was 100,000 in 2024, at the end of 24, it broke 100,000 and went to about 120,000, I believe, around the Trump inaugural.

But it’s been trading sideways and chopping sideways a lot, most likely through the last few months. And you see gold continuing to just rise and it’s rising on mostly uncertainty. It’s rising on central bank accumulation and it’s rising on the expected rate cut. Yes. And it’s kind of interesting that even El Salvador, which had moved over strongly to bitcoin, their Central bank has started accumulating gold for the first time. So I guess the people that named the country after Jesus decided to start saving some real money gold. But it’s kind of interesting to see that happening and see even some of the stablecoin people are talking about, well, we’re going to set up a fund here that’s going to be Bitcoin, but we’re going to start accumulating gold for insurance.

So you got some bitcoin people who are accumulating gold for insurance as well? That’s correct. And Tether, I believe, has actually gone into backing some of the gold mining operations they’re putting into the basis of infrastructure for gold. It’s a really interesting time. I remember the interview I did with Alan Herrera and I mentioned this last week. He wrote a history of gold. But I was thinking about that this morning. There was a hundred thousand tons or so accumulated through all of history up until about 1990. And since that time, we’ve put another 100,000 tons into circulation of mining.

We’ve mined that much more gold and the price is where it is still. So I think this is because we’ve got a lot of fiscal uncertainty. There’s been so much debasement of fiat currency, it’s hard to tell exactly what the true price of gold is. But I don’t think we’re anywhere near it right now, Dave. Yeah, yeah. And of course, they just had the producer price index come out and it showed inflation was higher than they had thought. But that didn’t really move gold all that much a little bit. But the thing that really moved it this week was when they saw this massive record fake jobs report.

I guess, you know, along with their fiat currency, they have fiat jobs. Things that don’t really exist that they just make up out of thin air. And that had been happening throughout the Biden administration last year or so, and now they’re having a reckoning as they start to try to backfill and remove these fake jobs that they put in there to try to pump him up and make him look good. And so that was one of the things that set gold off. But it’s also, I think, the unrest that we’re seeing, you know, the attempts, the escalated attempts to drag everybody into World War Three that we see, it’s always all of these different things have always moved to help gold.

Because gold can be simple. It can be something that you have physical custody of. It doesn’t even require for the infrastructure of the Internet being there. Yeah, I think we Make a mistake. We look at the price of commodities, we think that they’re priced into the metrics of all things financial globally, and they’re just not. I mean, if you look at the supposed wealth of the world and all the transactions and what’s held, it’s about 500 trillion. The market cap for gold, I believe is about 20 trillion. I think silver is about 2 trillion, something like that.

And so it’s relatively nothing compared to all of the financial products and all of the seeming what is presented as wealth or value around the world. I think we’re just on the edge of something really historic, David. And I’m sure we’ve heard this before because they call it a great reset. But the financially everything that in the United States we just hear about these few stocks. We hear about Nvidia, you hear about things like that, the Fang stocks. But the most of the stocks, they’re just kind of dead to people. They chop, they move sideways, they don’t go anywhere.

We have a different metric of wealth here. And I think this is because of the changes that are on the horizon. The monetary changes are so massive. I think that’s what’s happening is seeing the prices of gold and silver and for a lesser extent, bitcoin right now. I think that has a lot to do with the uncertainty around the world and adoption. I think that’s why bitcoin’s kind of just sitting there, not doing anything. Yeah, everybody is looking for something that is real and authentic, as you point out. You know, we have this paper wealth that is astronomical and gold is a teeny tiny slice of that.

And I think people are looking at all these fiat currencies and all these different manipulations that are being done by governments and they’re looking to fall back on something that’s real. And I think that’s one of the reasons why this nonsense from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the bls, was such obvious bs. That’s one of the things that really kicked off gold. It’s like, you know, what is real out here? Do we have anything that’s real? Well, that’s going to be the big question after all these years, after 1971, is what is real at the end of the end of the day, we’ve had so much fake thrown at us.

And you know, we have these booms and busts and a lot of them are manufactured. And now the bubble’s gotten so big. If you go back through monetary history like I like to do, you know, if you go back to some of the earlier panics, like the panic of 1907 that we had natural market forces were allowed to come in and everything was corrected. So it was a longer period between boom and bust cycles and it wasn’t as large. But when you artificially prop them up, like we did with the great financial crisis of 2008, 2009, which was really unprecedented.

We never really done anything like that before where the government putting pressure on the central bank created trillions out of thin air to prop up banks that were too big to. To fail or jail. And the consequences of that are still not felt. Zombie corporations, I’ve talked about this many times. I still have zombie corporations that are in effect propped up. Well, it still may be in the back of a lot of people’s minds. It certainly is in the back of my mind. I mean, if they can blow up real estate by using tokenization, securitization and fake financial instruments, then you want to physically hold something that is real, like gold and silver.

And I think that it’s. A lot of people got to be thinking about it in the back of their mind like, you know, hey, look at what they were able to do with real estate. We need to get something that’s real. Well, that’s right. And then real estate in and of itself, I think is an open question of how secure that is. How much, how much of a bubble is that right now because of the interest rates? And that’s. The attempt is going to be to cut it by 25 basis points coming up to see if it can fuel the economy.

Because we need that, that debt creation. I mean, as long as there’s currency creation and debt creation, then it seemingly is a healthy economy. But that’s a foundation built on sand, as we know. And the looming financial disaster, I think that is out there. And I’m not just being pessimistic for the sake of it. I think that that’s just the data. I mean, we look at the debt explosion. We were talking about September 11th and I’m speaking today, by the way. I got my show next, but I’m gonna. I got invited to speak at the Rotary Club here in Denison, Texas for about 30 minutes.

I told my. Can I talk about 9 11? And we’re gonna have. I think some people are gonna. I’m not gonna go full tilt onto them, but we’re gonna talk about things like building set and we’re gonna talk about some of the mysteries of 911 and maybe even talk about some of the, the shorts that were put on to you Know, the short sales and the, the puts that were put onto airline stocks by affiliates of Deutsche bank who had ties to intelligence. We could, we’ll talk a little bit about that today. But, yeah, it’s, it’s, you know, since 2001, David, we’ve, I think I looked up the debt of the U.S.

in 2001. On September 11, it was around 5.5 trillion. And as we stand today, we’re at 37 + trillion dollars. These are metrics that, these are unsustainable things. And the debt to GDP ratio. And now clearly the answer here, I think, is to invade Venezuela. We have to do that because if we can invade Venezuela, everything will be fine. It’s a national security issue, ladies and gentlemen. No, it’s, well, they didn’t have enough oil that they could set up their own petrodollar without Saudi Arabia. If they went into Venezuela, they got more. Right. More oil than Saudi Arabia.

That’s, that’s the issue with, with Venezuela is not, it’s so ridiculous. The, it’s not the cartels. It’s not any of that. It’s, it’s, it’s the, it’s a grotesque version of the Monroe Doctrine in some way. Yeah, unfortunately. And that. But, yeah, we’re not, we’re not working on any of the things that would actually make this economy healthy, David. I mean, we got you seen some of these people and I know you’ve played some of this, but some of these folks, these operators that are trying to figure out what to do about tariffs and how to get their products in and having to shut down and they’re firing people and all the rest that’s happening because of the tariffs and uncertainty.

This is not a game that’s going to turn out well for the people of the United States, unfortunately. And the sad part about it is I agree with the concept of tariffs up until now, probably. Yeah, it’s the sort of thing where actually there was a good article on Mises, and I’ll cover it later, where they said Trump is portraying tariffs as something that’s going to make us wealthy. But he said, however, if you look at this historically, the countries that have high tariffs are the poorest in the world, and the ones that had low tariffs are the richest in the world.

And so it is not looking like it’s going to build prosperity. And of course, then it also begs a question which they don’t really address, and that is, we’ve always been told by Democrats that we can tax and spend our way to prosperity and that’s basically what Trump, a Democrat, is telling us now, that we can tax and spend our way to prosperity. And yet that is not the case. It is exactly the opposite. But before we get away from the metals, silver you were talking about still has a ratio of about 80 or so to gold.

And one of the interesting things I thought was the fact that as everybody got concerned about Trump putting on tariffs with gold, especially because of his war with Switzerland, that he wanted to get into this is the capricious and arbitrary nature of what Trump is doing. If he doesn’t like a country threatens them with tariffs. And this is one of the reasons why he should not have that power. Hopefully the courts are going to take it away. He’s already lost twice with that. But people are saying, well, if he’s going to put a tariff on gold.

They started getting concerned about that. He came out and explicitly said there will be no tariff on gold and a couple of other precious metals, but he left out silver. Do you read anything into that? He didn’t say they wouldn’t tariff silver. That’s interesting. Yeah. And they may have to do somewhat with, maybe indirectly with what we saw Russia do, adding silver as a strategic reserve asset and accumulating silver. Other governments I believe under the radar are also doing that, maybe even in the, the brics periphery. And I think that’s what’s driving price. I think, I think a lot of the contracts and some of the other papered over silver markets are really getting strained right now.

And I just did the calculation while you were talking. I just wanted to make sure. But it’s 88, it’s 88 ounces of silver to make one ounce of gold. And what’s interesting about, as we’ve seen gold continue its march towards another all time high, and we just hit another all time high a few days ago, you wondered if gold, if silver was going to keep up with gold. I mean, if you go back to the first quarter of the pandemic after we had this massive stock market rally and then had the lowest, you know, we had the, the lowest day on Wall street, biggest crash since, since 29.

I remember the gold silver ratio at one time, David, was 125 to 1. Wow. Wow. So that’s because silver really crashed. I mean, it went down to, I mean on the spot levels, it was under $15. I think it was like around $13 an ounce at one time. Now you couldn’t buy it anywhere for that. No one’s going to sell it at 13. But it had Crashed that hard and we slowly seen it build back. But I think this is starting to break away and go back. Historically, it’s been even as low as 10 to 1, but that’s generally 20 to 1 to 40 to 1 somewhere in there.

And we lost that balance post 1933. I think those things are going to start resetting, especially as governments like the government of Russia gets in on the silver game. Interesting enough, the Swiss were the last people to the last country to officially go into a Fiat currency post 1971. They went into total fiat in 2002, and at that time they had a silver standard for their currency. That might also be an underlying issue with, with the Swiss and silver, Silver still a monetary metal. It’s just gold gets all the, the big headlines. It’s easier to move.

You know, it’s, I think at the end of the day, it’s always known as money. But silver does it just right there underneath it as a monetary metal, not just an industrial metal. And it probably will reclaim that. As a matter of fact, the, the word ruby for the Indian currency is from the, from the root word rupiah, which means silver. Interesting. So as you’re pointing out, the ratio between gold and silver, gold is up like, what, 34, 37% or something this year. So has silver gone up that much? Yes, same. Yeah, it’s followed it. That’s because that’s what I was saying.

The interesting thing is the gold silver ratio, as we’ve been discussing. At one time, silver was $35 an ounce and gold was 35 hundred. So it’s 100 to 1. And that’s been in the last 90 to 120 days. But we’re starting to slowly see everything starting to repurpose and reset itself back to that, you know, 80 something to, to one ratio, even if as gold climbs. Interesting. Well, it’s, you know, when we look at this going forward, the war that Trump’s got going with the Federal Reserve is another issue there. It looks like he’s going to get his way, even though the court has blocked him being able to fire Lisa Cook as governor.

I think what she did was wrong. It was criminal. But the other aspects of this that I thought were kind of alarming was how Pulte went through and did a Stalinesque investigation of her with artificial intelligence is very much like, bring me the man, I’ll find the crime. And so, you know, he’s bragging about the fact that he’s got artificial intelligence. They can go back and sort through somebody’s economic history and find anything, any technicality that they can hit him on. And she did violate the law. She did lie on her. On her mortgage applications. But the way that they caught her is very concerning and because they will use it against other people, I think.

But it’s also the fact that it is a whether or not he is able to get her out. He is deliberately trying to intimidate people to following his desired economic direction. Lowering interest rates, which is going to help gold. It’s going to hurt us with inflation, but it’s going to help the price of gold significantly. Do you think they’re going to do a. Most of the people are saying 25 basis points, about a quarter of a point that they’re going to lower rates. Some people are saying half a point. But the bottom line is, is that Trump is going to get his way.

Joe Slinte said Trump is great for gold. He was last time because he pushes inflation and easy money policies. It looks like he’s going to get his way with that as well. What do you think? I think he’s going to get his way. I would lean towards 25 basis points at least. I don’t think there’s going to be a 50 basis points cut right off the bat. But I do think it’ll be followed by several other cuts. I mean, I think they’ll go all the way into the midterms into next year. That’ll be the trend. And you’ll start to see some of the same language float around again.

And you know, the Wall street will be back, it’ll look like everything’s great for a while. And then you get into. Every time we do this, every time we create these bubbles, we’re just setting ourselves up for the, for the bigger downturn. And as you’ve noticed throughout the years, there’s not much room to run anymore. I mean, we’ve been able to bail ourselves out by currency creation and lower interest rates. But if you keep lowering, if you get them back down to the COVID 1984 levels, where do you go from there? And I think that’s probably where we’re headed is just massive currency printing, money printing, expansion of the dollar, the M2 supply.

I think we’ll do that. Inflation will continue to be a major issue, eating away at the savings of the American people and hurting the world. I think this is without sound money policies. We’re just going to be continuing to debase and devalue our own financial system. And, and that’s why things like gold are important, silver is important. And anything that cannot be reprinted, which is, that’s only a few things. That’s commodities basically. At the end of the day, it’s things that are rare and things that take work to get out of the earth or to manufacturer.

So I think we’re the same policy, same things over and over again. Cheap money’s on the horizon, which means expensive gold. That’s right, yeah. What we’re looking at, the fundamentals, as you and I pointed out with this, this isn’t about trends that we’re looking at in terms of, you know, past history of different things as much as it is we see the instability geopolitically, financially, all these other things. And then this time there’s something brand new on the horizon and that is the desire of these people to have a CBDC which now they are using the Trojan horse of the genius action to try to set up these stablecoins which will still give them complete ability to track and to prevent transactions from happening financially.

And you’ve got a Senator Keith Kelly of Alabama is warning people that the genius act is going to harm small banks. I say it’d be more than a harm, it’s going to destroy them. Eric Trump has said, and he made this pronouncement at, I think maybe they were in Dubai or something and he was talking about how banks were going to go away within 10 years and it was all going to be stablecoins because that’s what the Trump family is angling for with Litnik and Tether and things like that. And what happens when we lose the small banks, Tony? Seems to me like we lose cash.

We will lose cash on a long enough timeline. I think you do lose cash. That is a big danger. We’re not there yet. I don’t think, you know, we’ve. I think the success of pushing, pushing back against a central bank digital currency in the short term has been successful because they no longer have the same plans that they had, you know, five years ago for a central bank digital currency. But you’re right, it’s morphed. And what did Zig Brzezinski say in run around Sovereignty? They’re doing an in run around the pushback on cbdc. They regrouped and they rebranded stablecoin issue.

Yeah, they regrouped and they rebranded it. Called it the genius act. And also, David, I think there’s something to the stable coins and what happens to the dollar, like the next iteration of the dollar. I think that’s important with the stable coins because all of us have watched things like the petrodollar die in the last year. That was a bizarre turn of events that we didn’t even try to save. We didn’t try to save the petrodollar. That 50 year agreement that we had with the Saudis, it just lapped in the summer of 2024 and without anything.

And I thought, well, that’s very strange. Well, if you look at what they’re trying to do with these off ramps, on ramps for stablecoins, it makes it really easy to trade internationally with the dollar. Stable coins, it’s another, it’s like a rebirth of the dollar, a reimagining of the dollar itself. At least that’s what I’m seeing kind of on the horizon for the future of the dollar and the monetary system. Yeah, I think they basically, you know, Lutnik can be the big customer of the Federal Reserve bonds and notes and then they can, through the stablecoin thing, they can go to retail instead of trying to sell it to central banks who don’t want to play that game anymore.

They can offer the stablecoin to individuals in other countries. And I think that’s the direction that they’re going to go. They’re going to try to prop up the dollar with the stablecoin. Yeah, I agree. I think that’s the danger there is the dollar becomes stable coins or its purpose that way is that we become a digitized system on the blockchain. And that’s where you get into the dangers of the surveillance state and, you know, the surveillance disguised as money, as Katherine Austin Fitz would say. I think a lot of people are sensing the threats that are out there to the dollar now.

I mean, when you look at it, it seems like gold rose about 50% across all of Trump’s previous four years. And right now, in the eight months since he’s taken office, it’s Rosen, almost 40% already. So people are looking at this and saying something’s wrong with the dollar. And anytime the dollar is unstable, anytime it’s weak, gold goes through the roof. And with the fact that we’ve already almost hit what he accomplished in his previous four years shows that there is a lot of stuff happening. He loves gold. He wants everything made out of gold. Maybe that’s why he’s just buying it all up.

We’re going to have one day he’s going to unveil the White House and it’s going to be gold plated. We’ll find he’s the biggest customer, not the central Banks in China or whatever. So the White House is nice, but now it’s gold. It’s better gold. Actually. He’s getting into crypto. That’s where all his family is becoming, getting all their money into crypto. But you know, this headline from the uk, an expose, UK government’s digital wallet plus a digital ID is the digital prison. And I think that’s the bottom line to me, you know, we’ve, we’ve had situations in the past and people, you know, if you look at gold as an investment, you know, you can look at past history and trends and things like that and try to buy it as a commodity or people look at it as a hedge against the collapse of the dollar, but I see it as a hedge against the collapse of civilization and privacy and all the rest of this stuff.

Because I know how they’re going to use this genius act, stablecoin. They’re going to use it exactly like a cbdc. It’s got all the worst features of a cbdc, but they’ve rebranded it to make you think that it’s fine. And they’ve rebranded it so that they make the money, not the Federal Reserve. You know, it’s going to be the Trump family and Lutnick who’s going to make the money off of this kind of stuff. It’s not going to be Powell and Company, I guess. Well, you’re right. And is it possible that the Federal Reserve itself released that the creature from Jekyll island is on the chopping block in this fourth turning? Is it one of the institutions that gets repurposed and is there some creative destruction that’s going on right now? And of course, it’s a game that, you know, it’s a big club and you ain’t in it.

It’s not like we benefit at any, any level. But is there some warring faction of, of the banking houses or establishment or dynastic families that decided to do something different and change the system itself? Is it no longer suits them? I mean, somebody’s going to have to pay the bill. Yeah. Think about the damage that’s been done by the Federal Reserve Bank. Think about what the central bank has done to the United States, to our, to our monetary system, that we used to have a system as good as gold and we used to be the world’s greatest creditor.

There’s a. The majority of the blame lies at the feet of the one institution that was supposed to regulate and control and keep boom and bust cycles from happening. They let all that stuff happen on their Watch. As a matter of fact, it’s lost 99% of its purchasing power since they assumed the helm of the in charge of the monetary policy. So I think that maybe that’s just a way of getting rid of it. Always need a crisis to precipitate the changes that they want. That’s right. And then what do we replace it with? To replace the Federal Reserve, as bad as it is, with one individual who’s just going to dictate everything.

You know, that’s, that’s the key thing we’re going to have, you know, we got a fiat currency. So I guess we should have a fiat dictator who’s going to have a singular individual who’s going to decide how everything the monetary policy, how much is going to be there and interest rates and all the rest of these things that Federal Reserve has been manipulating would have central planning done by somebody who doesn’t seem to plan anything economically. He just reacts as we’ve seen with the tariff stuff. I definitely think this is a blip. You know, obviously the Trump administration, this is already, you know, he can’t run again.

I don’t think there’ll be a continuity of these same types of policies. So this is probably an anomaly somewhere. But it does fit into the larger plan. As you mentioned with Besson, the Treasury secretary then ties to stable coins in the past. I think this is going to be something that stable coins, cryptos, a lot of what’s going to be put on the table in the next three years and it will be implemented and put into the infrastructure. And it’s sad because we don’t need at the end of the day, if people had a free market for money you mentioned the small banks will be hurt by the stablecoins.

That’s the exact entities we would need to step up and help us with the free market and have some real competition and I think create a better way. Decentralized currency is the answer to a centralized system that it’s imploding. And that’s unfortunate that people can’t see it. Everything is going to become more centralized. Instead of the Federal Reserve, you have one individual or couple of people in his administration who may making all the monetary policy. And then instead of a lot of smaller local banks and some of the competition that comes with that, you’re going to have the too big to fail guys and too big to jail guys.

They’ll be the only ones that you’ll be able to get loans from. What’s that going to be like? And then of course, there’s not going to be, there’s not going to be the ability to, if you’re a small business, assuming that there’s any small businesses left, you’re not going to be able to take the cash that you had at your business and take it down to the local bank to have it deposited. You know, that’s, that’s going to be a thing of the past as well. So it’s, it’s, all of it is about complete centralization and complete control.

And it’s going to be the usual suspects, the giant banks and the government that are going to exercise complete control over everything. That’s why I say we need to have something that we can have as a basis for setting up a parallel economic system that’s going to be out of their system. And that’s where gold and silver, I think come in as a very important thing. I agree. I think, and I think we’re just at the beginning of the implementation of a lot of those policies for people to get their hands on precious metals and start transacting them in them.

I think that they were just at the beginning. A lot of states have made it legal tender. Texas recently just did that. They have some three year plan or something to implement where they’re going to. You’ll be able to store gold and silver in a, in the Texas depository and then, you know, have a card against it and all that. That’s fine. But it’s also the, the move there, I think by the state itself to make gold and silver legal tender as well as other states that are working on it. That’s the future. The states and local governments are doing a, I think a good job at preparing for a future where the dollar is a lot less stable.

I got a question for you, Tony, from Wes Robertson, 448 asks, Will silver hit 150 to $200 an ounce in the next two to three years? I think two to three years is probably, let’s hope not. Because if it’s hitting that, if it’s doing those kind of numbers, we got some real problems. Think that, I think that we’re really poised in this last quarter of 2025 here to see silver break. It’s finally break its 45 year all time high. I think that is a very good mathematical chance that we’ll see silver do something like go to $60 an ounce.

That’s real possible. And then going into 20, 26 and beyond, you know, there’s, it’s tough to say. I think $100 an ounce silver is definitely doable in this decade, and that just kind of depends on what happens geopolitically. If we’re in if. You know, there’s a lot of ifs there. Yeah, there’s a lot of ifs. Yeah. As you said, we’d be into the dollar really bad straits if it gets that high. As a matter of fact, there was something on Kitco, and it was a quote from a company that is focused on so silver stock investors.

And he said he thought that it could go to $100 an ounce this cycle. So that’s a real bullish projection. And even he’s going to $100 and not 200 or 300. I try to be as conservative as possible because a lot of people can misconstrue what I say is investment advice. But also I found these silver bugs that are always going around the Internet that have all these views that tell people that silver’s going to be $1,000 an ounce and stuff. I never. I don’t know what they’re basing that off of. And I think that people get excited and they run off and they buy whatever products, you know, that they think they’re going to see this massive returns.

But I do think that we’re still in an era of cheap silver. And I bring that up because of the gold silver ratio. And I think that the ratio is still skewed, even though Silver is at 40, almost $42 an ounce spot. So I still think we’ve got a long way to go where you can still accumulate. I mean, obviously silver is going to do well all throughout the decade. So you’re just kind of getting this. You’re not late to the party at 42 an ounce. Silver, not even close. Yeah, what we’re talking about, if it goes to two or three hundred dollars an ounce, again, that things are really bad economically because the, you know, again, you know, we’re.

At least I look at this stuff. When I look at gold and silver, I’m interested in it just as a store of value, not as playing a commodity market. You know, there’s a lot of other commodities that you can play as well. I guess you could go out, invest in tomatoes. With Trump’s erratic tariff policies, you know, you could probably get involved in tomato futures and either get burned or become really rich. But I look at it as a preservation tactic and not just a preservation purchasing power, but as a preservation of privacy and of freedom.

Because this other thing that’s out there, besides the interplay between these fiat currencies and the traditional money of gold and silver. This is a whole other thing out there of the Stable coins or the CBDCs or whatever they want to label them. They’re the same thing. And that’s what really has me concerned. Do you have any more questions here that you see, Lance for Tony? I don’t see any there. Let me ask you, what’s going on with Wise Wolf? Well, we got the new old bank location. I took a branch bank, an old bank of America, and repurposed it here in Denison, Texas.

I’m getting my signs up in the next week or so. We got a banner up right now. We’ve been busy. I love it. So it’s a. Still got the drive through. Still says ATM on there. It’s fun. That’s cool. I got putting a new studio in there for podcasts and we rebranded it David. We did. Just for this location, we did Wise Wolf. Gold silver Bitcoin. I changed the logo up a bit. So I’m the only drive through gold silver bitcoin place in the world. I think I’m gonna say in the world. I don’t know that there’s anybody competing with me in that realm yet, but we’re really excited about that.

Put in some work there and I don’t think I’ll be doing any more physical locations. I have my two. I think you might have an opportunity if all these local banks start going out of business with Stablecoin. Yeah, I’ll be the bank of choice. Yeah, we. We’ve definitely put in a lot of infrastructure into the. The two physical locations in the last year. I wanted to make sure that, you know, the marketing was sound and people could physically bring us product. So if you just. I mean, this is what we do every week. But the intel that I’m seeing is that a lot of people are selling.

A lot of people are selling product and we’re happy to be there for them. But that ratio of buyers to sellers, you know, it’s just so skewed right now. And you wonder, you see these prices that are rising. Somebody’s buying and it’s just not. The everyday people are doing stuff like Wolfpack. They’re, you know, they’re budgeting out, which is great. And we, we need every single Wolf Pack membership to offset that because we’re buying product. Like, I bought like 600 ounces of silver yesterday and I got nowhere to put it. If you’re interested in getting some great deals on silver, you should give me a call.

Basically, I got like 2 ounce, 3 ounce, 5 ounce rounds and bars from the Australian mint. I’m just buying, buying crazy amounts. It’s like over $22,000. I think we, we bought between the two locations probably like you know, a thousand ounces yesterday. Well, we’re buying ounces hand over fist. And then one seller or was that just a lot of people that were selling silver? It’s, It’s. That was one. The 600 ounces was one shot. But we just, we are getting a lot of people selling of course gold. Urban gold mining is up. That’s a good, that’s a good thing.

I, I’d love to buy as much scrap gold as I can buy. You know, watches and chains and rings. I love that. I mean that helps. That keeps the lights on and teeth and that’s really gone. It’s really been busy because of the price of gold. But yeah, now’s a good time to get into this more. I know it’s. People are skittish but I would say it’s a, it’s a really good time I think to especially get into silver and we got a lot of great deals on that. Right. Well if it’s being driven by instability, I don’t see any stability on the horizon.

No, that’s, that’s the key thing. Well, it’s always great talking to you Tony. And your program is going to be immediately following this one on X and tell us where else they can find it. Yeah. On Rumble at, on the America Unplugged channel and on X at Tony Arterburn. You’ll, you’ll find me live there. I have a YouTube channel. You might want to check it out before it, it goes away. But it’s at Tony Artiver and you can find me on YouTube there. And then I’ll be, I’ll be going to speak to the Rotary Club. So if you’re in Denison, go by because I’m gonna, I’m going to be kind.

But we’re going to talk about some of the mysteries of 9 11. People that leave there will not look at 911 again. The same. Well, they shouldn’t, you know, just. I would just encourage them to get on YouTube and search for building demolitions and they might get an idea of what a real building. Yeah, it’s a. Yeah, you can see failed. They could also take a look at all the different skyscraper fires. Many of them that went for several days with steel skyscrapers and they never fell. They might be twisted metal but they never fell. Well, thank you for getting the truth out there, Tony, and thank you for what you do.

It’s been great to have a good source for gold and silver. And I know that people love the ability to be able to gradually accumulate and save gold and silver on a regular basis. That’s what Wise Wolf has really been. So thank you so much for what you do. Again, people can find, Tony, they go to davidknight.gold. that’ll take you to Wise Wolf as well. Thank you, Tony. We’ll talk to you later, sir. See you soon. Making sense Common again. You’re listening to the David Knight Show. Elvis, ladies and gentlemen, the Beatles and the sweet sounds of Motown.

Find them on the oldies channel@apsradio.com all right. Welcome back. And before we get into your comments and questions, I just want to say this real quickly because we were talking about this, Tony. I said it was Mises its reason saying Trump says tariffs make us richer. So why the countries with high tariff support? Well, that’s a really simple answer, isn’t it? Because tariffs are taxes. They don’t make us wealthier. That’s the most amazing thing to me is that you’ve got these conservatives cheering Trump on new taxes because it’s Trump and it doesn’t help us to be dumping money into the federal treasury.

Even if the money weren’t coming from us, I wouldn’t want the government being richer and more powerful. But they’re tax and they restrict trade, they restrict efficiency and it’s a means of control and central planning. Trump’s use of the International Emergency Economic Powers act to impose high tariffs without congressional authorization. He complained that if the import taxes go away, the US Will become a third world nation. Reason says third world status might be America’s future, but it’s more likely to result from tariffs rather than from their absence. And so as he’s got these courtroom fights that are going on and so far he’s 0 and 2 on these things, his response was when this happened, he said more than $15 trillion will be invested in the USA, a record.

All uppercase. Much of this investment is because of tariffs. If the radical left court is allowed to terminate these tariffs, almost all of this investment and much more will be immediately canceled. In many ways, we would become a third world nation with no hope of greatness. All uppercase again. Well, please define for us what greatness is because high tariff countries are poor. As reason says, if tariffs are linked to prosperity, it is an inverse relationship. In other words, as one goes up, the other goes down. As tariffs go up, prosperity goes down. That has been the record everywhere.

Except of course, Trump can suspend reality, at least in the mind of maga. According to a recent report on America’s declining economic freedom from Canada’s Fraser Institute. You guys remember the Fraser Institute? Indeed. I was really proud of the boys. We brag on them. A couple we’ve had. When they were in high school, both Travis and Lance competed in a contest at the Fraser Institute, which is kind of a libertarian free market economic think tank that’s up in Canada. They had a competition for high school students that was Canada and the US and they came in, both of them won first prizes in different years.

One year they got first and second prize. So there were cash prizes too. So I was really happy for them. Anyway, Fraser Institute’s Matthew Mitchell said high tariff countries are generally low income countries, while low tariff countries are generally high income countries. In the high tariff countries, average GDP per capita is just $9,700 per year, while in low tariff countries it is 43,500 per year. In other words, it’s kind of a, I think a general attitude of the government towards the free market is reflected in this. High tariff countries are going to be countries that have a lot of central planning, a lot of government control, a lot of high taxes.

In 2023, the US had an average tariff rate of 3.3%, which put US in the company of such countries as Singapore and Hong Kong that neither of them had any tariff. They were zero tariff. Israel was at 1.3%, New Zealand 1.9%, Australia 2.4% and Iceland 3.3% and we were at 3.3%. This year’s tariff shift has been marked by wild fluctuations, but the average tariff rate on April 15th was 28% and now it is around 19%. And of course that in and of itself is a big problem, this fluctuation. But that puts the US among the likes of Zimbabwe, 18%, Chad, 18%, the Republic of Congo 18%, Algeria 18.9% and Egypt at 19%.

What glorious company we’re keeping. Yeah, that’s right. And so at 28%, average UF terrorists are higher than those in djibouti, which is 21%. Or if they got a chic in Djibouti, that’d be a chic djibouti anyway. Sudan 21.6% and exceeded only by the Bahamas, which has 32 and a half percent. And I guess, you know, if, if high tariffs create manufacturing jobs, I guess Bahamas is a, is a real manufacturing powerhouse. The US Used to have manufacturing hubs like Zimbabwe and the Bahamas. Yeah, what they’re manufacturing in Zimbabwe is Marxist government. Yeah, well, the Bahamas produces all those shirts, you know, so the US used to have sort of tariff rates that correlate with prosperity.

But the Trump administration is now emulating the trade policies of what he has termed in the past as shithole countries. Well, certainly the advice that he’s getting from Navarro is pure excrement. So I guess that fits. Anyway, as of 2022, the US stood at 53rd out of 165 countries for the freedom to trade and Fraser’s Economic Freedom of the World index having fallen from eighth place in 1995. It was because of non tariff barriers of the sort that Trump complains are imposed on Americans by other governments, but which the US has adopted to its own detriment in recent decades.

US trade freedom peaked in 1980 at 9.3 on the 10 point scale. It began to slide for the next two decades and then declined more precipitously in the last decade and a half. Much of this decline was driven by controls on the movement of capital and people. In particular, the US imposed steeper capital controls in 2009 and more stringent limits on the freedom of foreigners to visit in 2014. Despite relatively low tariffs before 2025, the US wasn’t as wide open as many people, Trump included, believe. With the exception of China, every country that Trump has singled out for treating America unfairly is more open to trade than the US itself.

Free trade doesn’t just correlate with current prosperity, as seen from a list of which countries have high tariff rates and which ones have low ones. It helps countries to become wealthier. Few propositions command as much consensus among professional economists as that open world trade increases economic growth and raises living standards. I’ll give you an example of this now that was from a Harvard economists. But many people understand that anything that stands in the way of trade, whether it is high tariffs, controls on the movement of people and capital, or other barriers to investment in exchange, all of that deprives people of the freedom they need to start businesses, create jobs and improve their lives.

High US tariffs have a further perverse effort effect, rather in that they tax Americans, effectively filling the government coffers by punishing our own people for seeking the goods that they want beyond the border. Eroding trade freedom reduces total economic freedom, of course, and the US risks Third World status, as the President warns that dangers lie in adopting the illiberal trade policies of countries that remain poor, largely through Their rulers, bad decisions. And just remember when we look at all this, that Trump bankrupted half a dozen casinos. He’s not a genius businessman. He was born on third base.

He was born as a millionaire and then he bankrupted a half dozen casinos. Just let that sink in. You know, he didn’t care at all about profit. That was one of the things that Wilbur Ross, when he was working for the Rothschilds, he saw that Donald Trump had this big entourage of people that were following him around and that he’s getting a lot of media attention. And he got on the phone to the Rothschilds, he said, we can use this guy. And they did. But one of the things that they found was that he didn’t really care about having essentially financial control of these bankrupt casinos.

He just wanted to make sure that he kept his name on them. It’s all about him. It’s all about narcissism. That was. He didn’t care about the bankruptcy, he didn’t even care about making money off them. It was just the narcissism. The White House says that Trump’s tariffs have raised $8 trillion in revenue. That’s not even close, says reason. So yeah, he’s going to make government richer again. That’s what he’s really going to do. If that were true. But they’re inflating those numbers. They’re not true at all. The White House’s claim is based on a misinterpretation of data that the actual revenue generated by tariffs is slightly lower than the White House’s claim claim.

As a matter of fact, most of these tariffs have not yet kicked in. And so this $8 trillion is coming from who? It’s coming from Mr. And Mrs. America and the products that they buy being more expensive. So the. I’ll just leave with this last thing here. You know, we’re talking about how free trade can help prosperity. Here’s an example coming from the New York Times. Guitar nerds and surf Bros. Didn’t want to get political. But then came the tariffs. And what is happening with this? They said one guy had a, went on a program and talked, made a video.

He said he promised himself that he would never get political on his channel. He just wanted to talk about making guitars. But he said the Trump tariffs will kill the guitar industry. Every American made instrument, he pointed out they all rely heavily on foreign materials, on woods that come from other places whose cost stood to skyrocket. Big manufacturers could be forced into unsustainable price hikes. Well loved boutique businesses that operate on Small margins could be wiped out, especially because of the capricious and ever changing rates that are there. He wasn’t alone, in his opinion. Bob Chapman, the British founder of Chapman guitars and longtime YouTube mainstay, agreed that the tariffs would make many guitar businesses untenable.

And so did many others in the guitar niche, often with shul like disclaimers attached. They weren’t trying to get political, they said, but their whole job was to discuss the sprawling global industry that produces music equipment and terrorists were unavoidably relevant. This is like one of the businesses I talked about the other day where they had to get some components from abroad that they couldn’t get here. He was making vintage computers of the 70s and 80s and those parts were not available in the United States. So he was going to be put out of business by Trump’s tariffs.

Here it’s just basic guitars and also surfboards where they can’t get the materials here domestically, they have to get them from abroad, and Trump is going to make that impossible. That is the boneheaded inflexibility that is being done by Trump and this sack of bricks. Peter Navarro. But let’s look at some of the comments that we had that have been here for a while. Yeah, we’ve got. Funny, I had a comment about what you’re just saying. It’s funny how these big government authoritarians always think that there’s some thing that the government can do that will just create wealth.

Essentially it’s, you know, the modern monetary theorists think you can just print it and now you’ll be wealthy. And Trump says, oh, we’ll just add these tariffs and then all this money from all these other countries are going to be here and then we’ll be wealthy. It’s if only these other governments had thought to do this one simple trick, then all poverty would be gone. And I think it has to do not so much with ignorance as it has to do with the fact that he knows that he can make himself very rich by getting into crypto and he has nothing but disdain.

He’s exactly like Hillary Clinton, who during her attempted takeover of health care at the very beginning of Bill’s presidential term, she said, I can’t be bothered with under capitalized businesses. I don’t really care what this is going to do to small businesses. We have seen this over and over and over again with Donald Trump. And yet who are the people that support him? Main Street America, the people who are going to lose their businesses, lose their jobs. The delusion that comes with Trump is Just unbelievable. It is a strong delusion, isn’t it? Yes. I want to say thank you to Cole.

360 subscribed on kick. Thank you very much. Thank you. Solo cat 1980. The FBI investigating. And other news. The Foxes still haven’t found who broke into the hen house. I’m sure they’ll find it. Right around the same time OJ Finds the real killers. M. Sellers, if I was a professional sniper, I would totally forget my gun. Well, part of that is he may have just. The shooter may have just ditched it to not be carrying it. You know, if you’re trying to just make a getaway, not carrying around the weapon keeps you from being spotted very easily.

Yeah. Rifles are. They’re hard to conceal. Yeah. Also, you know, if you’ve wiped it down, you’re no longer going to have to worry about concealing the murder weapon. Yeah. It was apparently a Mauser. 30 06, by the way. M. Sellers. Yes. How appropriate for today. Shooter’s passport found it survived a tumble and a large fire. It floated right down over the deus. Or the stage, fell off the roof and landed directly where everyone could see it. Guard Goldsmith. You know, hearing TRUMP Praise Mr. Kirk for being involved in free speech and debate really rang hollow considering Trump’s attacks on students on campuses who call for peace in Gaza.

Yeah, Trump is no fan of free speech. Absolutely not. I watched his video. He referred to it several times as a, quote, hate attack. I never heard that term before because it’s total nonsense. I mean, obviously if you’re shooting someone, you. You aren’t a big fan of them. It is a hate attack. That’s why. You know, I think his best defense for that Jeffrey Epstein birthday note is the fact that the word enigma was used. As I said, it was even spelled correctly, so that could be his for saying that he had absolutely nothing to do with it.

I can’t even spell enigma. Never use the word. It’s good to see you, Guard again. Guard Goldsmith. Liberty Conspiracy. Every evening on Twitter and other people and rumble. Yes, three little birds. It’s confirmed. 3006 rifle used. Has inscriptions of trans anger towards Kirk on the casings. Yeah. Wall Street Journal is supporting that now as well. Audi MRR says Tucker Building 7 isn’t weird. QUOTE unquote, it’s criminal. Tucker Carlson’s job is not. Is to not question. Is to not question, but ask. Why Questions can’t be asked. Why can’t we talk about that? Yeah, because I’ll lose my job, so I can’t say anything.

About that. I’ll lie for 911 and I’ll lie for the vaccine companies and all the rest of this stuff. Yeah, whatever you need. That’s murder. It was so weird. Weird how they were all covering it up. Including me. Nathan Bedford Forest 1865 the Israeli art students were all over the Twin towers for months. Then there were the urban moving system. Slash Israelis with explosive residue in their van. Mossad was integral in that operation. Yeah, I mean I’d be surprised if there are many operations that go down of this sort of that Mossad is not integral in.

We, our government and Israeli’s government are tied at the hip. And I think the influence flows from Israel towards us and not the other way around. Personally they seem to be the ones calling the shots. And you know, talking about the stuff, weird events preceding 9 11. Let’s not forget that Marvin Bush was the head of the company that was doing security for the Trade Tower until shortly before the attacks. Yeah, shut down over the weekend. The one Bush that hasn’t run for president. I still live in fear that they may eventually trot him out like.

Well you know. Jeb didn’t work but George, he got in. Maybe we could try Marvin. Is Marvin like Marvin the Martian? Does he not have a nose and a mouth or something? Marvin found his kaboom. Yeah. Narrow way Narrow Gate Ministries Civil war will be horrific. These people who are calling for for it to have no understanding of what they’re asking for wanting or realizing the total aspect of destruction and pain they will cause. Yeah, we’ve been largely insulated from any conflict on the United States mainland just due to our geographical location. Yes, we were separated from the two world wars by two oceans.

And the technology of the time didn’t really allow people to reach out and touch us the way they could. Now we are no longer protected by distance. And so if there is a world war were on the table and if there’s a civil war, it’ll even more brutal. Civil wars always are because the hate that it engenders is even worse. We have the real octo spook. Yes, 911 was an insane denial of physics, math, science, physical properties of the material, etc. If morons are so easily fooled, when are we ever safe from lies and crimes right before our eyes? Well that’s why I say, you know the.

When you look at Covid, you could pretty much say the same thing about the pandemic narrative. You know, it basically was a denial of all science and reality as well, even their own science, so called virology. One thing I really hate is when I go to see some kind of a sci fi or superhero movie and they just make up a universe that has its own rules of how it operates. And they need to, if you’re going to have a good movie, they need to stay within those rules that they’ve imagined. And it’s a bad movie if they don’t.

That’s why the COVID pandemic was such a bad movie. But everybody went with it. And of course the two of those things were intricately tied together from the beginning. The first rehearsal of this plan that they operated and went with completely of was Dark Winter where they practiced locking everybody down and coming up with a vaccine that was going to be the key to getting out. And all the rest of stuff that happened two months before 9 11. Then one week after 911 we had the false flag attack of the anthrax attack. And I’ve talked to the people of 911 truth.

They understand how that was connected there as well. And they have reopened that investigation where even mainstream media like New York Times pointed out that it was a false flag. And we saw that they had fingered a suspect who worked at one of these labs. But it wasn’t the lab that had that kind of anthrax or that kind of delivery capability. But they pointed to that guy and they implied that he was the one who did it. But they never charged him for a couple of decades. Then when he died, they announced that he was the one that did it when he couldn’t defend himself.

But two months after all of that happened, they put out all of the planned legislation that they wanted enacted at the state level so that they would have plausible deniability, so that all you would need is to have a president who’s going to release the money. And the states have already practiced and set up the legal framework for what was done to us in 2020. So it was a long term plan. And these things were in lockstep from the very beginning. And it was the other shoe to drop. And it was just as absurd, if not even, well, I won’t say more so, but equally absurd to all the stuff that happened with 9 11.

Yeah. Nathan Bedford Forest 1865. The whole thing was a Mossad plan. Netanyahu mentioned a plane flying into the World Trade center back in 1992. That’s a bit ominous. Those are some nice towers you got there. Plane would have hit him. That’d be a real shame. Yona Annie Wodey Audi because of course when we talk about that There had been a plane that hit the. They were specifically built to withstand that. Yeah. So what. What are the changes that they made in the building code? Right. And let’s also not forget that while he’s talking about that in the 90s, there were also the plans of Operation Northwoods and Gladio where they were discussing false flags, including ones where they would fly planes into buildings.

Yes, that was back in the 1960s. That was before even the. The Cuban Missile crisis, I believe. Yeah, long before. Yeah, they wanted to use that. They wanted to create a false flag, you know, flying planes into buildings so that they would have an excuse to invade Cuba. We have Yona Anywodi saying Audi because his brother Marvin Bush is running security. That is why, as Lance pointed out and as Yona pointing out, Marvin Bush was running security for the World Trade Centers, which. Which, huh. Makes you. Makes you think. Get your noggin, Joggin Audi. Mrr. Trump is going to use this Kirk shooting as a ruse to get MAGA on board with more gun control via executive order.

I hope they don’t let him do that. They won’t control the SSRIs and they won’t control the educational institutions that are manufacturing these insane trannies. And they’re also manufacturing the radical leftists as well. But we’re not going to change the institutions. These institutions are bankrupting us in terms of our property taxes, but they must be preserved because that is their tool of change. I really hope he isn’t able to get them on board. As we’ve said, we didn’t agree with Charlie Kirk on a lot of things, but he seemed to be very staunch about his Second Amendment support and that he would never yield on it.

As far as I could tell, I haven’t seen any clips to the contrary. So I hope that people don’t cave and give in to that sort of rhetoric. Especially with all the push to use tranny ism as a lever for gun control. It’s again, it’s not gonna stop anything there. If a wants to commit murder, having a little bit harder access to a gun isn’t going to prevent that. Obviously, you know, this person set everything up, planned an assassination escape route. Does anyone think that a gun law would have stopped this? Well, to paraphrase what they always said, you know, if guns are outlawed, then only trainees will have guns.

That’s the true nightmare. Instead of criminals. The darkest timeline. But yeah, it’s continuing to push the main thing that’s causing the problem and then using the problem to push something that won’t fix it. And of course, Trump loved a virtue signal. I mean they’ve already. These initial. The initial talk about taking guns away from trannies was coming from the Department of Justice, which is, you know, he was one who set that precedent with bump stocks and he also did pistol brace bans, but he walked that back. And then his successor, Biden immediately brought back the pistol brace band.

So they’re going to do that and you’ll have the. The right is already cheering him on it. They don’t understand the principles involved. Yeah, I said this before, I’m not sure if it was on air, but it’s like the mask mandate. It’s a contrived solution that’s not going to address any problems. I mean, this shooting obviously is a real problem, but it’s just creating a new problem based off of it. That’s right. Everything they do, drug war included. Yeah. High boost says. Did anyone look at the ammo prices today? Did they skyrocket? I did not. I’ll have to do that.

Maybe I can get you an answer by the end of the show. Maybe we’ll be able to compare it. Dga, the unfortunate Kirk incident will be used for gun control and expansion of the police and surveillance state. Never let a good crisis go to waste. Now I can definitely see the police state expanding and surveillance state expanding because of this. Well, you see, we need to be able to monitor social media posts that are going to probably find a bunch of different social media posts from whoever they end up saying did this. If they catch the real guy, I’m sure that they’ll find some and say if we had just been able to tag and trace everyone, we would have been able to stop this because that’s the way they operate.

It’s again, sometimes to manufacture the crisis, sometimes things happen organically, but they know how to utilize it for their own agenda, no matter what. Don’t frag me, bro. Mossad couldn’t do, couldn’t do everything that happened on 911 without the help of the CIA military. I agree with that. It’s a, it’s a cabal of people. Lots of different factions are involved. There’s a lot of wicked people across the globe. Yeah. If we’re running down the list of 911 anomalies, another one to bring up is the way how all the air defenses stood down and let the planes get right there.

So obviously it’s not just Mossad. Yeah, yeah, that was Gore Vidal who talked about that. A very hardcore leftist. He said, wait, I had his uncle or something had designed norad. He goes, something’s up with that. That would have never happened. Somebody made that stand down. Yeah. He also says that the object that happened to hit the pentagram destroyed all audit records of the pentagram fraud. Yeah. Trillions of dollars. And that was just announced by Rumsfeld like a day or two earlier than that. What is Israel’s motive for doing that? You’re exactly right. We need to look at Cui Bono right now.

Israel had the motive and these people were cheering because it’s like, all right, good. This is going to get, you know, they’re going to identify the Muslims as the propagators of this and that can be used to get them to attack our enemies. But yeah, the, the Pentagon fraud and that suspicious attack at the Pentagon which reeked of nonsense. Absolutely. We have. Don’t frag me, bro. The object that happened. I read that one. Oh yeah. Skunk Hollow Rose Gardens. Friends with Cattle is worth gold too. That’s right. You. You need to be able to feed yourself.

We talk about gold and silver because as a general rule I tend to feel that most people understand that they need food and water and they may not know where to get gold and silver even if they want it. Gold and silver is, you know, a bit of a rarer commodity. But you need to be able to feed yourself, you need to be able to get water. If you don’t have those things, no amount of gold or silver is going to do you any good at all. You’ll simply be a well dressed skeleton that someone gets.

Do we have Jack Lawson coming on tomorrow? I think. I don’t know about that. I think we do. Yeah. We need to get them on pretty soon to talk about, Talk about Civil Defense Manual. Civil defense manual, volumes one and two. Go to Jack Lawsonbooks.com and get that. You can learn how to protect yourself and your community, how to find food, how to forage for that sort of thing. Find water. It’s a great resource because you do need to be able to get food and water. If you don’t have that, as I said, nothing else matters.

You won’t make it long enough to be able to utilize the other things. And you don’t want to be put in a situation where you are stealing and looting from other people. You don’t want to have to make that decision. You just want to avoid it. You don’t want to be that kind of person. It is. You don’t want to give in to wickedness. We have Audi mrr The petrodollars failure is part of the agenda. It’s a big agenda and you’re not part of it. The real Octo spook Governor Billionaires will always be able to push a button, have whatever amount of money they choose and won’t be bothered with printing fiat money.

Yeah, it’s a. They’re able to basically do whatever they want with money. They have a basically unlimited supply of it. Defy Tyrant 1776 if gold is worth 3, 500 an ounce and the dollars crashes and is worth zero, what will gold be worth? LOL. It’ll still be worth 1 ounce of gold. That’s the thing. You look at what it can buy. It’s very. Gold has value apart from from the fiat currencies. And you know, that’s one of the reasons why I don’t really get too worried about tracking the price of it because it’s there to preserve money.

We’ve talked for a long many times we’ve talked about how much gold would it take to do this or that or buy this or that 100 years ago. And if you look at stays roughly the same over the centuries and just adjusting for the difference in the labor cost and things like that for something like a suit or travel or something. But gold retains its value and has retained its value. It’s the dollar that you’re seeing going up and down. It kind of reminds me of all the back and forth about metric versus the English system.

You know, we’re going to do this in inches or we’re going to do it in centimeters. The metric system was a rational system in the sense that it was set up as everything was there as powers of ten. So it’s a tenth or a hundredth or whatever or a thousand of this or that. Whereas gold, when you look at it, it had all these different odd ratios of 12 inches to a foot and 3ft to a yard and so forth and so on. And it only got to be complicated when people wanted to convert the inches to the metric system within the metric system.

It couldn’t have been simpler. But it got complicated when people tried to convert from the English system to the metric system. And that’s what got people confused about it. So you know, it’s only confusing when we look at we try to convert the value of gold into the value of a fiat currency, which is an irrational system. There’s a lot that’s irrational about our systems today. Nights of the storm, when a single wide trailer is selling for half a million dollars, then silver will be at $100 an ounce, it may not be that far away. Depends on where you live.

I bet you could probably find a single wide trailer for half a million in places in California. Narrow way, Narrow gate ministries. The tariffs of yesteryear worked because the US had the industrial production to use tariffs to protect its interests. Now the US is Kmart, an importer of all. So tariffs don’t protect, they steal. I agree. And when. When manufacturing is reshored, as I’ve said for the longest time, it’s going to be reshored not with human workers, but with automated or robotic workers. It’s just going to be a deal for Trump’s friends and his donors. Yeah, we’ve got Gene X.

Make Banana Republic manufacturing great again. Nibiru2029 says made in the USA equals triple the cost for the same disposable garbage. Now, to some extent, most of the stuff that people spend their money on these days are completely pointless frivolities that are just, as you said, garbage. Disposable things that they’ll use a couple times. That next one is interesting. Nat Lander. Yeah, Natlander says I do guitar repairs for a living. This is killing me too. Yeah, I’m sorry to hear that. Again. It’s just Trump runs roughshod over small, but he never looks at the broader implications of his actions.

I won’t even call them policies. They’re not that well thought out from him or from Navarro. Yeah, Cole360 says not true. I’ve seen some great cardboard bangos. Christian constitutional conservative tariffs are ultimately paid by we the consumer. That’s right. Companies just pass them on. Companies are about maximizing profit. And whatever they have to do to get there, they will. Knights of the Storm. Was there a serial number on the rifle? How’s that gun control working? Gun control, as always, is working as well as it ever has, which is to say, not at all. DG8, the people on the right will demand gun control and expansion of the police surveillance state.

I agree, and I hope, I hope you’re wrong. But I fear you’re right. Don’t frag me, bro. Learn more about the guerrilla tactics of the ACW and you get a taste of what the unpopular part of civil war looks like. Absolutely true. Well, you want to see what civil war looks like? We’ve got parliament burning in Nepal. This is their parliament building. They call it the Durbar Palace. Oh, that’s a bit more realistic than calling it Parliament, because that’s where our royalty meets as well. We should Start calling it the Capital Palace. A massive blaze engulfed it.

It was an administrative complex and it was part of the protest there. The palace was built in 1908, serves as the seat of Nepal’s government, hosting several ministries and other key institutions. About 500 people were injured, including more than 100 police officers and several people died and all that. That’s what civil war looks like. You know, before we run out of time, isn’t there a special at RNC that’s coming up tomorrow? Do you have that? Don’t have that. But there is a sale going on at Homestead Products Shop. Organic passion flower tea. Yes, they want to, they want you to go try it.

They say people love it. They say it is delicious. So go check out our Homestead Products shop and use promo code night. Their organic passion flower tea is on sale and again they work very, very hard to make sure all their products are high quality. They’re made in the USA and it’s by people that share our value. So you’re supporting a good group of people. We need to try that. I bet that tastes really good. And you know we’re always looking for something to drink that isn’t going to be super high in calories and you know, chemical garbage full of chemicals and you know, housed in plastic or aluminum or something like that.

But it’s great to make your own tea and that sounds like a great deal. And again people can find that. They got a sale that’s going on right now with that homesteadproducts shop and it’s the organic passion flower tea. And you can also use promo code knight for 10% off on the products on the website. And so go support Homestead Products Shop. They have a numerous amount of products of all different kinds and again it’s a people who are of like mind and share our values and we want to support them. Well, Brian Shalhavi has a story headline the Trump birthday letter to the Epstein is a distraction.

The real story is the nonpartisan Epstein Beast the US banking system. And again he references the article that was on Zero Hedge. I talked about that yesterday. Jamie Demon and JP Morgan and Epp Epstein’s relationships with them and of course the fact that he said there were somebody there in legal was a little bit concerned about doing business with Jeffrey Epstein three years after his conviction and non punishment for pedophilia. And he said well go talk to Bill Gates about me. Which I guess that that worked because he’s a friend of Bill Gates and all these people that are involved in that.

The U.S. virgin Islands sued Chase bank in 2022 for keeping bank accounts of Epstein where money was used for child sex trafficking. It settled without a trial in 2023. None of the 50 US state attorneys general could sue the bank over this issue. Continuing to keep everyone’s identity secret because it has always been paramount to keep everyone’s identity secret. And the COVID up has always come from the federal government shutting all this stuff down, even shutting down investigations by any state attorney general, no matter the cost, even Trump’s ego. They must keep these things secret because the GOP is about guarding our pedophiles.

Now, the Democrats as well, I mean, they were. A lot of Democrats were involved in this, but now they are taking the imaginary high ground on this, pretending that they would not cover this stuff up when they have for a long time as well. They’re going to leave this completely at the doorstep of Donald Trump. Epstein stepped into JP Morgan’s Chase headquarters at Park Avenue, rode the elevator to the executive floors. Remember I talked about that yesterday. And the fact that they also gave him. They also had his lawyer, Ken Starr, who came in and insisted that, quote, no crimes have been committed.

Does that sound familiar? As I’ve said many times, Ken Starr said the same thing about Bill Clinton. He covered up all of these crimes of Clinton. Then he went from there to cover up all the crimes of Epstein. Then he became, and he was put out there as a straight arrow Christian attorney. Then he goes to Baylor University, which is supposed to be a Christian university, became the president there. And as president there, what he did was he covered up a sexual scandal there with the football team. And that was the last one that he got a chance to do.

It’s three strikes and I guess he was out at that point. They fired him from that. But here’s a guy, and again, this is the same type of thing that you’re seeing on Mike Johnson. They put these people out, make a big deal about, oh, he’s a Christian this, a Christian that, and they are the ones that they use to cover up for this stuff. That’s why they can get so many things done with a Republican president that they can’t get done with a Democrat president. Because people look at these labels and they give people a pass.

They don’t look at what they’re actually doing. And so again, the massive amount of money that was there, and it’s not just that, but it’s also these suspicious activity, reports of massive funds that were being transferred to and from Epstein that is also something that is being covered up by the federal government and it was not part of any trial. So there was no judge that is sitting there on that information. It is the Department of Justice that is sitting on that information. So again, Brian Schulhavi is exactly right. That is the key thing. But it is interesting to see the Epstein birthday book that was there.

And I’m gonna, I don’t know if I’ve got, I do have time to play this one, which I thought was pretty good. This was a, this was Moskowitz, who’s a Democrat. And so he’s making hay while the sun is shining on Trump and his cover up of the pedophiles. And as people said, well, that was not Trump’s signature. And he goes, really? So this morning our close personal friend Mr. Comer said that he was not going to look into the letter or the doodle, the President’s doodle. He’s a decent doodler, by the way. So he wasn’t going to look into whether the signature was a forgery.

And I’m concerned about that because this is the President of the United States. If there are forgeries or forgers out there, I think we should investigate it. And in fact, this document is 22 years. It’s got the automatic pen signer. Someone 22 years ago went back to the future and forged his signature when he was a Democrat. And somehow this person was Nostradamus, knew he would become a Republican, become president 22 years later. So listen, I submit to you that we can solve this problem for the American people. You don’t have to take my word for it.

You don’t have to take our dear personal friend Mr. Comer’s word for it. Let’s bring in a signature expert. You guys pick the witnesses, bring in your signature experts, swear them under oath, and let’s have the signature examined. Is it his or it is not his? We don’t have to play games or, you know, the President says it’s not his, we say it’s him. No, no, let’s bring in a signature expert, a referee, because we can’t agree on anything, even when it’s right in our face of whether that is indeed the President’s signature or if it’s a forgery, we should immediately open up an investigation into this forgery.

I think again, that’s the key, isn’t it? The key is that people are lying to your face about this and for what purpose. That’s the real issue that is there. And of course, Lance said that the other day as well, about the signature, that should be pretty easy to establish whether it is real or not. But yeah, we had a time traveler who went back 20 years ago, forged his signature while Trump was still a Democrat and not involved in politics because, you know, one day he was going to be the Republican president. It’s very interesting to see the contortions that the Trump administration is going through, that Mike Johnson is going through in order to cover up all this stuff.

And we have to ask why, and we have to ask also, what does it tell us about Trump? Because again, you’ll be known by your friends because they will make an effect on you as real clear politics says. Melania, please talk to Donald about Epstein. I imagine they’ve had many conversations about Epstein. Don’t you seem to all have been good friends at one point? Yeah, so they said calling this, taking the position of just dismissing this as a Democrat hoax is absurd and nobody’s going to buy it. And I think nobody’s going to buy this signature stuff either.

It is an act of desperation and it’s, it’s waking people up, I think, to the lies and deception that he’s been feeding them about so many different issues. So from that standpoint, I see it as a positive thing. Don’t trust anybody. Especially a pal of Jeffrey Epstein. Especially a pal of Jeffrey Epstein, Exactly. I want to remind you to please all keep Jason Barker’s wife in your prayer. She had to go to the emergency room yesterday and pray for Brandon, grateful Baptist as well. Pray for them. Thank you all for watching. Thank you. 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 accept expose what they want to hide.
