INTERVIEW – Trends in War Economy
Summary
➡ The speaker criticizes the US and Israel’s approach to Iran and Middle East, suggesting they have created their own problems there. They also condemn the risk of escalating violence by emphasizing negative imagery. They touch upon the principles of a just war, arguing the approach does not honor these principles, making it unjust. It’s suggested that land is being stolen in West Bank, insinuating violations of the Geneva Conventions. They bring attention to perceived societal ills, such as usury and unequal wealth distribution, alluding to a system that favors large corporations over the individual. The speaker concludes with an accusation of widespread corruption and influence in politics.
➡ The speaker discusses the geopolitical and social issues surrounding Israel and its policies, emphasizing diverse opinions concerning the Israeli government within the Jewish community. They go on to criticize the U.S. media’s coverage of pro-Palestinian rallies, and later, the economic downturn in various global markets like China, Europe, Japan, and the U.S., warning of a pending Great Depression.
➡ The text discusses potentially biased media coverage of financial issues and the impact of the COVID pandemic on American and Chinese households. It questions the narrative around the pandemic and the influence of political leaders, such as Biden, Xi and Bush, in implementing restrictive measures and maintaining a cycle of wars. The text also criticizes the rewriting of historical events and reality along with the potential censorship and blacklisting for nonconformance, and concludes with a mention of Taylor Swift as a strategic tool in Argentina’s political scene.
➡ The speaker criticizes the current cultural and political state, drawing comparisons between contemporary musicians and celebrated past artists, reflecting on former events he organized, and discussing the danger of influential personalities. They believe that there’s a decrease in cultural and societal value, comparing it to the fall of the Roman Empire. They predict potential economic and political shifts, suggesting that interest rates might decrease leading to the death of the dollar, and a resulting increase in gold prices. They express concern over the emerging European ID and the potential global effect and note the growth in bitcoin as a reaction to unstable currencies.
➡ Short-term predictions suggest Bitcoin may reach $42,000, posing the idea that digital currency could replace traditional cash. However, concerns arise from the potential problems caused by power outages and dependency on the internet, as seen in Australia’s recent cashless movement. Future competition may arise within the industry as traditional banking institutions move towards digitalisation and aim to offer derivatives of cryptocurrency.
Transcript
All right. Joining us now is Gerald Salinti with Trends Journal. You see it@trendsJournal. com? Here is the COVID from this week. Follow your political leader. Do what you’re told. Yeah, that is exactly right. And you see this? I don’t know if he’s eating them or is he vomiting them. What? Which is it, Gerald? Thanks for joining us. Yeah, and there’s the other line. I guess you can’t read it.
You’re not allowed to put that up there. Follow what they tell you’re nothing more than a piece of crap. Yeah, that’s right. Hey, listen, I want to make this straight. I’m the governor of California. I’m arrogant, gruesome newsome. I’m a daddy’s boy. My daddy worked for the Getty gang. He was a lawyer for them. You shut down your businesses. I’m Little Andy Cuomo. I’m another daddy’s boy. Born on Third base.
Thought I hit a home run. My daddy was Mario Cuomo. And I’m renaming the Tapanzee Bridge after my father and you jerks, it’s Mario M. Cuomo Bridge. You forgot to put the M. Take down those signs. Redo them. It’s only going to cost the stupid taxpayers as plantation workers of slave Landia $30 million. Wow. I didn’t know that he took that award for the crap that I spewed out during the COVID War.
You’re nothing more than a piece of crap. I’m your leader. And it’s not only here. You got the Katson Macron over there in France. You got that little Odof Schultz over there, the new Nazi building up the German military. We’re going to be the strongest military in. Yeah. Oh, you like the First World War, and I like the second one better. Yeah. And then you got Netanyahu over there.
You want to see a real crazy guy? Open your eyes. Follow your leader. You’re nothing. You are nothing. That’s the attitude. That’s the attitude that they look at the little jerk that’s playing look at the little jerk that’s playing. The new House speaker. Speaker of the House. Little Mike Johnson. Yep. A little nothing of a clown. Oh, this is a boy. A little boy of no nothing. A little boy of nothing.
I’m a devout Christian. I’m an evangelical ChristIan. Oh, no abortion, but more money to Israel to keep slaughtering the Palestinians. No cease fire. He was at that rally on Tuesday. No cease fire. Keep killing the innocent Palestinians. Keep destroying them. Only about 12,000 dead. Over 5000 of them children and women. Yeah, you’ve got a stat here. The who says a child is being killed every ten minutes in Gaza? No abortion.
No abortion. I’m an evangelical Christian. You’re a piece of crap. And I call it his face. You’re a little murderous piece of crap. Every one of these little clowns. Yeah, he’s coming at it from a Zionist perspective because of his Christian perspective. But as I’ve said before, God doesn’t need your help if you think that this is what’s going on. He doesn’t need your help, and he doesn’t need you to go slaughter these people in order to make his plans come true.
He’s got some real clear directives about what you are to do and not do. But you use your idea about how the world is going to end to get around having to follow those objectives when they get into your way. And then the other issue that I’m concerned with about him, I look at that and I say, okay, well, this is something he’s always said. He’s very mistaken about it.
But the thing that concerns me is if he’s compromised, you look at as a character issue, he always was opposing Ukraine until he becomes speaker of the House. Now he’s supporting money for continuing the war in Ukraine as well. So he’s a Christian, and it probably supports a war against China as well. We can have all three for our Third World War. We can have Europe and Asia, as well as the Middle East.
We can have a war. Again, this is a Christian looking at response to an attack. It needs to be done in a way to try to minimize the loss of innocent life. And it needs to be done with an eye to stopping the hostilities, not using it as an excuse to ramp up the hostilities, which is the way this is being done by Israel, by Netanyahu. Yes, I agree 100% what you’re saying.
And by the way, I think I’ve read this before from your trends journal. And again, people could get the Trends Journal by going to. What’s the David Knight? The code is knight. Yeah. Get 10% off of the Trends Journal. That’s right. Yeah. It’ll cost you less than $2 a week. Yeah. $2 a week for nothing. In which you’ll buy 170 pages a week. Yeah. And online format as well.
So it’s like an online magazine with hot links in it, and you could listen to it as well. So this is when it was a quarterly. You see that Crusades 2000. While the seeds of the Crusades 2000 had been planted in full view of the world and all those watching could have anticipated eventual harvest. The memories of what had happened and what would occur have been fogged by rigid me, fanatical religiosity, patriotic fervor, government propaganda and ulterior motives, regardless of what England’s reasons or intentions were, self serving or otherwise.
Crusades 2000 was set in motion by the 1917 Balfour Declaration that laid the foundation for Israel. This is the quote His Majesty’s Government views with favor the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people and will use our best endeavors to facilitate the achievement of this objective. His Majesty’s Government. His Majesty’s Government. Here you see His Majesty’s Government recently? Yeah. Look at this little freak show.
These guys dressed up in all this drag. Look at this stupid Halloween show. This is His Majesty’s Government. What the hell is His Majesty’s government from the UK saying? What should happen in Palestine? Who are they to say that this land goes to the Jewish people? And then the United nations created it. The United nations that the Americans fought against joining after World War I when it was called the League of Nations because it was not our responsibility to get involved in all this crap.
The United nations declared the Jewish state of Israel. They threw out, what, about 700,000 Palestinians? They have no right to this land. It’s not theirs. Did you see the article that came out? The Guardian put it up and then took it down. Of Osama bin Laden speech. Did you hear about that? Oh, yeah, that’s going around on Twitter. Yeah. Osama bin Laden’s speech. Yeah, go ahead. I printed out the whole thing.
These are some of the things he says. Some American writers have published articles under the title, quote, on what basis are we Fighting? These articles have generated a number of responses, some of which adhere to the truth and were biased on Islamic law and others which have not. Here we wanted to outline the truth as an explanation and warning. Why are we fighting and opposing you? What are we calling you to and what do we want you to do? As for the first question, why are we fighting and opposing you? The answer is very simple.
Because you attack us and continue to attack us. You attacked us in Palestine. Palestine, which has sunk under military occupation for more than 80 years. The British, as I just wrote, handed over Palestine with your help and your support to the Jews who have occupied it for more than 50 years. He wrote this in 2002, overflowing with oppression, tyranny, crimes, killing, expulsion, destruction and devastation. The creation and continuation of Israel is one of the greatest crimes, and you are the leaders of its criminals.
And it goes on. The creation of Israel is a crime which must be erased. Each and every person whose hands have become polluted in the contribution towards the crime must pay its price. It goes on. I agree with him. You have no right to do this to the Palestinian people. Could you imagine, David, I’ve been having nightmares now for some three weeks because I got to write about this stuff every day, about the pal.
I see the pictures of the Palestinian children being killed, the parents, the bombings, the hospitals bombings, school bombings, mosque bombings. Could you imagine if Gaza was filled with Jewish people and the Palestinians were bombing them? Could you imagine the outrage that we’d. Then, then the article, if I could find it real quickly, yesterday an article came out about those dirty Russians bombed a place in Kirsten, whoever you pronounce it, and killed some 15 people.
Major story, killed some 15 people. What if the Russians were doing what the Jews are doing to the Palestinians? What if the Russians were bombing the hell out of Kiev like this? Well, can you imagine the outrage we’d have? Kiev was bombing their own country and donesque in Crimea. They were doing that for eight years before Russia killed over 14,000 people. Yeah, here’s the thing. And I don’t know.
I saw that the Obama letter was going viral on TikTok, and so with the fact that it’s on TikTok and the fact that it’s supposedly coming from Obama and his ties that we knew he had with A-C-I don’t know if that’s authentic or not. I don’t know if they’ve authenticated that. But whatever that is said there, people are looking at that. I know for a fact that the US is so anxious to get after Iran and so is Israel.
And yet that is something that’s a monster that we created. Just like, you know, we created al Qaeda, just like we created the mujahideen, which became al Qaeda, and then how we armed ISIS and so forth, and how the US and Israel decided that they wanted to have Hamas there because they would be more radical and it would work for their benefit to have that. So I understand how they’re doing all of this stuff, and I also understand when you talk about it, and I don’t look at those pictures because I don’t want to get caught up in that.
You look at the pictures on both sides, and what do they focus on, Gerald? They focus on the death and the mutilation of kids. I saw a couple of them. It’s like I’m going to not watch this anymore. But that’s how they energize both sides against the other. And I said, you know what we need to do? We take somebody who says that they’re pro life, well, be pro life.
And instead of using pictures of the death and mutilation of children, use pictures of the death and mutilation of babies who are aborted to stop that evil here and stop stoking this war. And when we look at, Again, the principles of just war, you don’t attack unless you are attacked. But even after you are initially attacked, you try to end this as soon as possible. You try to avoid harming civilians as much as possible.
And that is not the objective that we see happening here. So it’s not a justified war in the way that it’s being responded to? Not at all. Not justified at all. And again, look what they’re doing now. The term settlers in the West Bank. What do you mean, settlers? How about Steelers? You got no right being there. Oh, it’s against the Geneva Convention. You’ve been doing it since 1967, and now they’ve killed some 200 people in the West bank settlement.
It’s not a settlement. You’re stealing the land. Violation of Geneva Conventions, Article two four two of the United Nations. And going back to this, what’s his name, Bin Laden wrote, he goes, you steal our wealth and oil, your forces occupy our countries. You spread your military bases throughout them. You corrupt our lands. You besiege our sanctities to protect the security of the Jews and to ensure the continuity of your pillage of our treasures.
You have starved the Muslims in Iraq. This is 100% true, where children die every day. It is a wonder that more than 1. 5 million Iraqi children have died as a result of your sanctions. And you did not show concern. Remember Madeline Albright on 60 Minutes with Leslie Stahl after Bill Clinton? Every time he got caught with his pants down, it was bombs away over Baghdad. Put sanctions on Iraq.
And Leslie Stahl asks, so the numbers, this is from Leslie Stahl. Is the price of 500,000 Iraqi children that are dead under the age of five worth the sanctions and what Bill Clinton is doing to Iraq? And Madeline Albright said, yes, it is. You could Google it up. Anybody go to YouTube? Madeline Albright, Leslie Stall. Oh, I’ve played it many times. And I said, she doesn’t even have the decency to deny.
Could. If you were a decent person, you could say, well, we didn’t kill that many. It wasn’t our intention to kill thEm. She owns it. She says yeah, it’s worth it. I have no regrets about the death of those children whatsoever. What a monster. And then he goes on to say, in a whole nother thing, you are a nation that permits usury, which has been forbidden by all religions.
Yet you build your economy and investments on usury. Think about it. This is one of the covers of the Trends Journal. Chasing the money changes out of the temple. Nothing’s changed. When I grew up as a kid, the Italians used to call us guineas and WAPs. We were very, very discriminated against. And that lousy mafia, they’re charging 10% interest to people that borrow money from. Yeah, what is city and MasterCard? I think they’re up around 30%, just under like 29% or something.
Yeah. That’s amazing. Yeah, worst amazing. It’s a crime syndicate. In front of your eyes. That’s right, it’s a crime syndicate. Those dirty guineas. That lousy Mafia. Hey, but I’m Jamie Dine. Hey, you got it. I’m convicted of five. JP Morgan Chase admitted to five felonies. Five felonies. Hey, I don’t go to jail. You know who I am? Yeah. He meets with Nuki Haley, who wants war everywhere. And she comes out now and she’s got, right after the meeting, she’s got a $10 million buy for her campaign.
Because she’s all about war, she’s all about open immigration, cheap labor for these big companies. Whatever the banksters want, she’s right there. Deliver it. It’s just a shame for her that Jeffrey Epstein’s not still around. But of course, he’s the next best thing, isn’t? Yep. Yeah. Hey, and you, David Knight, and everybody listening, you’re just a piece of crap. I don’t care about your debt. I don’t care about your problems.
I’m too big to fail. I make dirty deals and I lost trillions of dollars. So I want your money to bail me out. I’m too big to fail. And the Federal Reserve dumped in $29 trillion to the banksters between 2007 and 2010, according to the Levy Institute at BOD College. And of course, make a point of saying, well, you know, they paid back all that money. They paid it back with money that they got at 0% interest while they were charging everybody else 30% interest on the.
That’s the amazing thing about you. Just look at the savings accounts. I remember when they got up to 5%, they said, well, this is about what it was in the mid 1960s. I forget the exact date, in the 1960s. And I thought, well, they used to pay interest. I wonder what the savings account interest rate was when the home mortgage rate was like five and a half percent.
And I looked at it and the home mortgage rate was like five and a half percent, and they were paying people 4% on their accounts. Now you get like one 10th of a percent or something like that, or less typically. And then they’re charging people 30% on these interest rates. I mean that in and of itself. Do you hear any of the politicians say anything about this? No, they were all bought off.
I know I said if I were to run for Congress, that’d be the central thing that I would talk about. I would talk about this. How did they get a 0% interest loan and then loan it out at 30%? And then when you. The commercial real estate thing that you’re talking about that begin with a lockdown, it’s really rolling out now. People are looking at the mechanism. I saw this week, I didn’t know what a mezzanine loan was.
I talked about it yesterday with a guy from the Measles Institute. But they have these mezzanine loans because they’re not the top in the debt stack, they call it. They’re not the top guys. So they take a more risky position. They get more of an interest rate. But the government that bailed out the banks that were too big to fail said, you can’t go with this risky loan.
So it’s going to be the small, medium sized banks. And now they’ve taken out these risky loans that really aren’t secured, and it’s really going to wipe out the small and the medium sized banks because of this commercial real estate lockdown and the crash that’s happening. It really is amazing. Right? That’s right. We’ve been talking about it. No one was talking about it. Yeah, no one was talking about it.
There’s an article that came out in the New York Post, a piece of crap. What a propaganda paper. But anyway, foot traffic in New York City down 33%. They’re flooding up to where I am, by the way, up here in Kingston. They’re leaving the city and flooding up to the suburbs and X burbs, going back again to what bin Laden said about usury laws and what we were just talking about.
I’m saying I agree with some of the stuff he’s saying. He said, you are a nation that permits usury, which has been forbidden by all religions, yet you build your economy and investments on usury. And he goes on to say here, your law is the law of the rich and wealthy people who have been hold sway in their political parties and fund their elections and campaigns with their gifts.
Just what you were saying about Nikki Haley getting all this dough and that guy DeSantis getting $20 million. Yeah, he’s saying. I’m saying. And then he goes, behind them stand the Jews who control your policy, media and the economy. And again, don’t call me an anti Samite. Number one, the people running Israel aren’t Samites. The Ashkenazi Jews from Eastern Europe. The Palestinians are Semites. They’re from the Mesopotamia region.
Number two, three of my last four girlfriends were Jewish. Number three or four, whatever. My best friends are Jews and my best friends are totally against what’s going on. Totally against it, what Israel is doing. Yeah. It’s not a monolithic thing. You have Jews in the US as well as especially in Israel, opposing what the government is doing. But we’re told that you cannot criticize the Israeli government, you cannot criticize Netanyahu, you cannot criticize the know.
All of those are protected institutions. As I said yesterday, I was talking, know, I talked about even before Elon Musk talked about how the ADL had set up, created their own monsters and everything I talked about the day before. But they don’t understand this. The ADL is really their Ku Klux Klan. And they don’t want to cut that off. They identify, they Defend know the majority of people.
And even people in the conservative know people like Shapiro and so forth. They’re defending arrogant. What an arrogant piece of crap he is. Ben Shapiro. What an arrogant boy. Yeah. See that? Jews say ceasefire. Yeah. Yeah. Is that New York? New York Times. They took out a full page Jewish voice to peace. They took out a full page ad. They had a rally in Washington a couple of weeks ago.
The numbers I saw up to almost a half a million, barely made any press coverage. The one they had, the pro Israel one, where the people are chanting, no ceasefire, no cease fire. That was front page news. All news everywhere. There are prot right up here in Kingston last Thursday, some 2000 people took to the streets in front of this guy, Pat Ryan, who got $23,000, they said, from the Jewish ADL.
Whatever. Is he an elected official? Congressman or something? Congressman. And there were about 2000 people right here. You’ve been up here in that little street up here. Yeah. Wow. And again, Jewish, but they call it pro Palestinian rallies. They’re not pro Palestinian rallies. They’re anti war rallies. They’re ceased fire rallies. They’re about peace. You’re not allowed to speak about peace. You’re banned from all the media. And again, you know, I launch occupied peace, so I just don’t talk about it.
I try to make things happen. Yeah. This is from the Financial Times. You ready? Yesterday, settlers seize on Hamas attack to take more West bank land. Shim Silverstein, a Jewish settler, can see only one reason to the Hamas attack in October 1 response. Excuse me, expanding the settlements and tightening further Israeli grip on occupied West Bank. Quote, let us leverage this to strengthen ourselves, grow our communities, and deepen our roots in our homeland.
It ain’t your homeland. It was a Palestinian homeland. And I don’t want to hear that your Torah is the thing that I got to believe in. It’s not the beginning of civilization. Don’t tell me. Oh, the guy, Isaac Herzog. That’s the president of IsraeL. You ready? God gave us this land. Who are you talking to? What do you think I’m still in kindergarten? Well, you know what’s interesting, Gerald, is when you look at Netanyahu, he’s a secularist, and he’s out there reading Bible passages as a dog whistle to the Christian Zionists who are here and to some people in his organization.
But he doesn’t believe any of that. He doesn’t live by any of that. And Ben Shapiro, he is interviewed by Joe Rogan. And he’s like, yeah, I don’t believe any of the Bible. I don’t believe that the Red Sea was partied any of that stuff. And it’s like, you only believe the parts that you like that are going to work out for you. That’s the whole thing that bothers me.
I look at it and I look at somebody like Mike Johnson. I think he’s got his theology wrong. I think that he is ignoring the clear instructions because he wants to help to make this happen. But these other people are cynically using the Bible that they don’t believe at all and using it for their own purposes. And know Christians excusing violence because of their interpretation of what is happening with.
I just. Let me interject here. Geese busters. Thank you very much for the tip. I appreciate that. He says, gerald, I just renewed my subscription to Trends Journal. I recommend this magazine to everyone. Only place for real news before it happens. Absolutely. And again, 10% off if you use the code night. So thank you very much, Geesebusters. Thank you for the support. Thank you for telling people what.
Because Gerald really does have an excellent publication. Again, a couple of hundred pages or more every week, and it’s all indexed in an online magazine format. And it’s the news that you don’t get other places. It really, again, this whole thing about commercial real estate, let’s talk a little bit about money and what is happening, because we had the last week, I love the headline of one of the zero hedge things.
I said, they came down a little bit from the Consumer Price Index, like 0. 1%. And then look at the stock market goes crazy and maybe you want to get some insurance on that, take out a little bit of a hedge against that because maybe that’s a fool’s gold rally that’s happening there. But I think they really saw that as a signal of kind of what they were expecting, what you’ve been talking about for the longest time, saying that you think that they’re going to force interest rates down.
They will rig the statistics to justify it any way that they want to, just like they always do. They rig statistics for inflation. They rig statistics for unemployment. They rig statistics for the pandemic. They just lie up one side and down the other. So they’re going to come up with a justification saying, well, we really have inflation under control, so let’s freeze interest rates or actually start lowering them before the election.
That’s what you’ve been predicting for a long time. Is this the beginning of. Yeah. Again, this is just. Some of the articles is from Beijing. China’s National Bureau of Statistics said domestic demand was still not sufficient and that manufacturers face low market demand. Okay, manufacturers face low market demand. Chinese exports last month were down 6. 8%. They’ve been down every month like that since May. Was that month over month or month over or year to year? Was that the 6.
8 month over month? 6. 8% compared to October of last year. They’d be going down every month compared to the last year. So it’s not only there. Your manufacturing index in the United States, in Europe, in China, way down. They’re in negative territory. You don’t go by consumer sales, you got to go by manufacturing. They’re manufacturing less because the Great Depression is coming here. Again, by the numbers, Europe’s problems are far bigger than a shallow recession.
This is from Reuters on November 14. And they go on. The bad news is that growth is hovering around zero with little out there to fuel a meaningful recovery. Data on Tuesday show gross domestic product shrank 0. 1% in July to September from the previous three months, pointing to a shallow recession. They’re in recession, and again, the numbers are rigged. They’re much worse than that. And then you keep going on.
And Germany appears to be the biggest drag. Its energy extensive, heavy industrial industries rely on external demand for growth, leaving it poorly prepared for the new realities. Blah, blah, blah, blah. And potential growth rate for Europe’s largest economy is now below 1%. Japan’s economy shrank at the fastest annualized quarterly pace in two years. The Japanese yen is at its lowest level against the dollar. You ready? In 30 years.
Wow. None of this is being put together. And then here, this is another one. Retail sales declined for the first time since March, as we just saw consumers cut their spending at stores, dealerships, gas stations last month, tapping the brakes on economic growth. This is the Wall Street Journal. Ahead of a holiday shopping season, US retail sales sold 0. 1%. They fell more than 0. 1% because when you put an inflation into it, it’s a lot lower.
And the inflation numbers are a lot worse than what they’re saying. You go to John Williams shadow stats, they really double what they’re saying. So the retail sales are down. And it goes on with other articles. I’m noting this because this is so important. And we’ve been writing about this week after week in the Trends Journal about luxury sales and retail sector. They’re all going down. Burberry’s shares sink 9% as luxury spending slow down bites the world’s largest group, another one, LVMH, also reported a quarterly slowdown last month, which we reported about.
If you see luxury going down, you know it’s going down everywhere. If they stop buying at the top, the bottom is going to fall out. This isn’t rocket science. But no one is saying what I just said in the mainstream media. I mean, there were the Peter Schiffs that know about this and others. Rich dad, Robert Kusaki, Nomi Prince, they know this, but the mainstream media doesn’t talk about because they’re all again funded by those who want to keep the phoniness going because they buy advertising and they need to sell more crap.
So when you put this together and you see where this is going, 80% of American households are in worse financial position now than they were before the COVID pandemic hit. This is a Reuters story. No, not the COVID pandemic. It was not a pandemic. Yeah, that’s right. The World Health Organization called it a pandemic on March 11, 2020, when the grand total of 4219 people died out of 88 billion.
So it wasn’t a pandemic, it was a COVID war. And the deaths in 2021 when the vaccine started getting pushed on everybody by Biden, just dwarf anything in 2020. And of course, they did get the death rates up because they were pushing out a death protocol that was out there. But, yeah, you’re right. No pandemic that was there. Everybody calls it a. I know, I know the pandemic did it.
It wasn’t Trump. It wasn’t Biden. It was the pandemic. Did know pandemic and not all the politicians. They didn’t do it. And again, when I’m mentioning this is because when you talk about the Torah, you talk about the Bible, you talk about this or that. Everything’s rewritten. History isn’t written the way it happens. People start making it up and putting their own language into it in the future, they’re going to write about the pandemic that hit in 2020.
Yeah, they’ll flush us down the memory hole and they’ll have their own version of history. But, you know, you look at it and look at what happened in Shanghai earlier this week. Gerald, I had, I came across a video. It was about 15 minutes long. And I took some excerpts from it and showed it on the program. And it was somebody walking around Guangzhou. Guangzhou is a huge city, political city.
It’s where the US embassy is. It’s where we had to go through to adopt our daughter and everything. Guanzhou, Modern, wealthy city and very, very wealthy. They were locked down ruthlessly to teach them a lesson. It didn’t have anything to do with a pandemic. Nothing was going on with that. And now these people are walking around and saying, everywhere you look, it’s for lease. The businesses have closed.
It’s a ghost town. The thing was amazing to us when we were there. We didn’t go to Shanghai. We went to Guangzhou and other places, and you could barely move. I mean, it was amazing how many people they had packed in Walmart, how many people they had packed on the roads. The roads were empty, the streets were closed. They went into malls, one mall after the other. Everything everywhere, empty.
Empty. They got like a 90% vacancy rate there. Instead of a 40% vacancy rate, I think, or 40% occupancy rate, they got a 10% occupancy rate. It is absolutely amazing. And it was all done to them. But of course, they’ll say it was the pandemic that did it. It was Xi who was exercising his authority in the same way that Mao did the Great Leap Forward or the Cultural Revolution to establish his authority, or the same way that Stalin did the Halamador.
It is all about them exercising their authority and killing, impoverishing, enslaving people just to show them who’s boss. And that’s what it was all about, showing Shanghai who was boss. And so everybody, once that got lifted, as you point out, people leaving New York and going to upstate New York, getting out away from the city, same thing happening in China, but with an even bigger vengeance because the lockdown was even worse.
You know, you talked about the dictatorial, you talk about China being dictatorial again, it’s the same thing in America. If you don’t believe the crap that I’m spewing out of my mouth, I’m a government official. You believe in misinformation. Yeah, that’s right. You’re blacklisted. Yeah. CRap coming out of the government’s mouth, or you’re blacklisted, just like now, they’re censoring everybody in the Colleges, the universities, everywhere. They call you an antisemite for coming out against the genocide.
And look up what the definition of genocide is. And it’s perfectly what’s going on. What Israel is doing to the, eliminating, eliminating a nationality. That’s righT. That’s what the Turks did to the Armenians. That’s where they first used the term genocide. Get them all off the land. And that’s what is happening here. But of course, that’s just the issue of the day. And Nikki Haley says, you know, we got to all give her, she wants to know everybody’s name.
Everybody’s name. It’s like, who gives you that authority? And what is that for? That’s to, oh, we’re going to make everybody so nice. And I said, when I looked at, it’s like, oh, look at Trump on social media. Everybody knows who he is. Isn’t he nice now? Because everybody knows who he is. It’s not going to make people polite. It’s simply a structure of tyranny. It’s a way to push a global ID on us because they want to channel everybody into a virtual world.
They want to have an ID to get into that virtual world and participate in it. That’s what it’s all about. It’s just amazing to me how they’re propping her up, not just with cash, but with phony push polls that they’re propping her up with. Who wants to vote for that woman? She’s the product of the military industrial complex and big business and Big Pharma and Big, know all of these polls that you’re seeing right now, they’ve announced the Super bowl winners Gerald, before the first preseason game has even been played.
Again, as I said. You said what Xi did to China and his dictatorial powers. How about that little daddy’s boy with a paracordone smaller than a mothball, a little nothing of a clown. George W. Bush, who gave us the war on terror that robbed us of so many of our rights, gave us Homeland Security, gave us the NSA to keep spying on us all the time. What’s the difference? Tell me the difference.
Tell me the difference. Well, that’s when under Bush he started the first dark winter. He started practicing that stuff in 2001, even before 911. And then he puts together the prep act in 2005 to give legal immunity to Pfizer, Moderna and all the rest of them. All this stuff that happened to us in 2020 is just the other shooter drop from his 911. It really was. Yeah, again.
And what also happened is that, as I keep saying, when all else fails, they take you to war. People don’t remember that. There was the. com bust, by the way, which we had forecast in the Trends Journal. It’s here somewhere. Back in October of 1999, we said it would bust by the second quarter of 2000. It crashed in March of 2000. People forget that Bush’s ratings were going into the toilet.
Then all of a sudden 911 happened. We’re going to get that guy, Osama bin Laden, dead or alive. 88% of the people believed it. Now let’s go back to the Israel war. Ask anybody anywhere. Hey, do you know about the 39 weeks of protests that were going on in Israel before this happened? Do you know about the Judicial Reform Act? But did you hear about Taylor Swift? They know all about Taylor Swift.
There were hundreds of thousands of people protesting in Israel for 39 weeks in a row following the Netanyahu’s government’s Judicial Reform act, which basically said the courts don’t count anymore, the politicians do. And I’m putting this act in place because I’m being bored up on corruption charges and I don’t want to go to court. I’m not calling it a civil war. Haha. That’s the Israeli newspaper, the Times of Israel, the Jerusalem Post.
Government officials called it a civil war was going on in Israel before this happened, before Hamas attacked, which I’m totally opposed to what they did, of course, but I also reading the facts, the United States warned Israel this was going to happen. Egypt warned it was going to happen. And the Israeli intelligence warned that neon was going to happen. And he ignored it. He wanted it to happen because everybody forgot about the judicial reform and now we’re united to fight.
Yeah. Again, when all else fails, they take you to war. That’s right. Yeah. You’re talking about everybody knowing about Taylor Swift everywhere. I don’t go to entertainment websites, but I can’t avoid Taylor Swift, and they’re using her. They’ve got 150% inflation in Argentina. They got this libertarian guy who. HE’s pretty brusque. I mean, he doesn’t take any prisoners when he goes on interviews, and he’s pretty rough with his opposition.
But they’re using the swifties. That’s their big hope, is that they can block him by using Taylor Swift. She’s going there for a concert, and they got this big fan club of hers, even in Argentina, and they think it’s big enough that they can actually block him. This weekend, they’ve got the final election, and perhaps they’ll do that. It’s kind of interesting to see how this whole thing is playing out.
The old people are paranistas. They love Avita Perrone. Right? The younger people love Taylor Swift. So maybe we can get the younger people who are looking at this and saying, I don’t have any future in a country that’s got 150% inflation. Well, let’s tell them that Taylor Swift is against freedom advances. That’s the name of his party. So that’s what they’re saying. Swifties against freedom advances. Kind of self owned themselves right there.
Can you believe this? Yeah. When I was the number two guy running a trade association, after the shows, after the trade show, then we put on an event for the people that were in the trade show, and I was in charge of one where I put in Ella Fitzgerald. Live or memory. Yeah. At the Atlantic Convention Center. Could you compare Taylor Swift to an Ella Fitzgerald to a Billie holiday, to a Peggy Lee? All these greats of the past.
These are nothings. They’re nothings. Matter of fact, we went backstage and I introduced myself to her, and I was married at the time, my former wife, who passed on Mary Ann, she said, lo Fitzgerald said to my wife, you look like my goddaughter Carmen. So, anyway, I also put on one. I took over the Superdome and put on one with Dion Warwick back in 1977. Yeah. She was an amazing talent.
Yeah. The clowns that are out there now and again, I really suggest that everybody you could get. I believe that piece written by Bin Laden. I’m telling you, it’s very important, because here’s the ending of it. David, I want to read this to you again. Think for yourself is the motto of the Trends Journal and what we do, we report on what they’re saying, what’s being reported. Then we give our trend analysis and our trend forecast.
So, you know, we’re not skewing what’s being reported. We’re saying, here’s the positives, the negatives. This is what you have to look at. And this is where we see it going. This is how he ends it right at the end. Look, if Americans refuse to listen to our advice and the goodness, guidance and righteousness that we call to them, you ready? Then be aware that you will lose this crusade.
Bush began just like the other previous crusades, in which you were humiliated. Our message to the Americans as an answer to theirs, do they know why we fight them? And over which form of ignorance we shall be victorious? But anyway, just like the other previous Crusades. And what did I show you before? Again, this is written in 2002, and this is your Trends journal in 2006. Crusades, 2000.
This is another Crusades. It’s in front of everybody’s eyes to see, not my language, the language coming out of that little clown boy. Graham, Lindsey Graham. It’s a religious war. They’re all calling it a religious war. What the hell? Am I involved as an American in a religious war? Yeah. Yeah. Why am I involved in your religious war? Why are we involved in every war? In every war? Of course.
I mean, Ukraine, the Ukraine War is over. What’s wrong with you? It’s out of the news. Yeah, it’s out of the news, but I don’t think it’s out of their mind. They’re just kind of putting it on the back burner. They’re going to keep still sending all that money to them. It’s absolutely amazing. And I don’t think it’s going to. The amazing thing, I don’t know if you saw this, I talked about early on the show Chris Christie criticizing his competition.
And he know, this, this war, I’ll tell you what winning means in Ukraine, he said, it means that Ukraine gets all of its territory back and then some. So it’s like, and then some, you’re going to go in and he says, and It’ll be up know, we’ll talk with the Ukrainians and see, we’ll decide between us if we want to go in and take some territory from Russia.
It’s like, what an arrogant blimp this guy is. And again, it’s the same type of stuff. You’d always see him, you know, if we’re going to put troops in Syria, we’ll talk to our allies in NATO and make a decision. We’ll let you in Congress know. This is same type of arrogance that he exudes. He’s giving dog whistles to the military industrial complex, hoping that he can get the kind of money that Nikki Haley is getting.
But these people are dangerous. Every one of them. Everyone. And you were mentioning about Rand Paul before I came on the. He voted. He voted to send more money to, too. Yeah, that’s right. Again, he’s so different than his father, Ron Paul, who I greatly admire. Yes. That’s the last person I voted for. Yeah. I haven’t voted for president since 2012. I’m not going to vote for these clowns.
Yeah, it’s a freak show in front of our eyes. This is the fall of the Roman Empire. It really is. Yeah, we’re talking about Taylor Swift and how the culture has fallen. I played a clip earlier this week. Guy did this great job of taking a Taylor Swift song and having AI do it with Johnny Cash’s voice and Johnny Cash’s style. And then I had never heard this song that she was so famous for.
It was called Blank Space, evidently referring to the area between her. Uh, Karen and I listened to the original and it’s like, it’s all auto tuned and the rest of stuff. And it’s like, how does she wind up being such a international superstar? And she obviously can’t sing. She’s afraid to do it without auto tuning, I guess. I don’t know. I’m just saying it’s an example of the entire.
Yeah, yeah. Idiocracy. It really. Yep. So how do you see this rolling? You know, the US is going to be trying to, economically, the US is going to be trying, know as they’re ramping up the wars, they’re going to try to be taking down the interest rates to benefit Biden for this. First of all, do you think BideN is going to make it to the election or is he going to step aside and give it to nuisance? He’s going to give it to Governor nuisance.
Yep. Gruesome Newsome again. We said that they would lower interest rates in the run up to the presidential reality show. They do it all the time. Look, who’s our Fed head? I mean, our treasury secretary, the former Fed head, Janet Yellen. How stupid can you be? The former Fed head is now our treasury secretary. Can’t you see who’s running the government? Banksters right in front of your eyes that people are too blind to see.
So they want to keep the power in place in place. So they’re going to lower interest rates in 2024. They’re not going to do anything this month or next month. They’ll keep them where they are, and then they’ll start lowering it. What’s that going to do to Europe? Because we’re starving them for energy. When we start lowering the interest rates to get a Democrat reelected, what’s that going to do to Europe’s economy? Well, Europe’s economy is going down.
They’re going to lower interest rates, too. But here’s the important thing as we see it. Gold prices are going to go up very high, and there’s going to be the beginning of the death of the dollar. The only reason the dollar is strong is because interest rates are high. Once interest rates go down, it’s the abandonment of the dollar. Most of the world is totally disgusted with America.
You got the European nations that still suck up to us, but the rest of the world’s had it. Bricks keep getting bigger and bigger. Look what they were going to do with all these sanctions that were going to destroy Russia. The sanctions that they put on Russia was going to bring their buy the oil at $60 a barrel, didn’t work at all. So as interest rates go down, gold prices are going to go up.
And of course, it’s also going to be helped, I think, by the concern that people have about this European ID that’s rolling out this guy theory. Breton says, well, now we got the digital wallet. The same people that gave us all of the passports for the pandemic and all the rest of stuff now want everybody to have a digital wallet. And they said, now we got to have something that goes in it, meaning the know this guy theory.
I said, if you want to know who the conspiracy theory, it’s a person. It’s this guy theory Breton. He’s the conspiracy theory that everybody’s been talking about conspiring to get everybody a global ID, rolling it out from Europe, and then they’ll do it around the world. And so I think I keep talking, looking at gold, and I keep saying, well, to, yeah, certainly you can look at the fundamentals and you can look at inflation coming and the monetary crisis and other stuff, but it’s really the CBDC thing that really concerns me.
You talked about Argentina with its 150% inflation rate. People in Argentina, a lot of them are buying cryptocurrencies, particularly bitcoin, because their currencies are going down so strongly. So we also see bitcoin, and we’ve been forecasting the numbers in the Trends journal, right on the numbers. We hit it right on the head, and we see bitcoin going at least to 42,000 in the short term as this continues, because the people, they’re getting more and more younger people, that bitcoin is their gold, but they just had a massive power outage in Australia.
They’ve largely gone cashless there. People couldn’t process any payments, anything, because it took down the telecom thing. If you look at this, as things start to escalate in terms of war and everything, that’s the thing that concerns me about crypto. I know that people who know really what they’re doing, they can do it with a wallet. But still, this idea that you got something that’s tied to the Internet, that’s the thing that really scares me about the crypto stuff.
I agree with you. And again, we’re also saying that they’re all going to go digital. Again, we’ve been writing about this since 2014. We’ve been writing about digital currencies. Three years ago, one of our covers was from dirty cash to digital trash. So what’s going to happen when they all go digital? That’s going to kill. They’re going to do everything they can to stop the competition. Yes. And that’s no go after Bitcoin.
Yeah, that’s right. Absolutely. And of course, you also got Morgan, the rest of them, trying to do these ETFs and derivatives and stuff like that off the cryptocurrencies to try to hone in on it and redirect it as well. I got a couple of comments and tips here. Fawn C. Thank you very much for the tips. She said Gerald is great. He’s like a taste of home for me, as I am Italian as well.
So that’s from Fawn and Dougalug. Thank you very much for the support. And folks, remember that if you want to get the excellent Trends Journal, trendsJournal. com, just use the code night and Gerald will give you a 10% off. And so we thank you for that, Gerald, and appreciate all the years that you’ve stood by us here and the help that you’ve been as we started the program, being able to go up to New York and to speak at your Occupy Peace rally.
I really do appreciate that. Thank you so much. Appreciate it. Thank you. And thank you all that you do. Well. Thank you. And that’s it for today’s program, folks. Have a good weekend and thank you for joining us. And we’ll be back next week, hopefully, and God willing. And we’ll see what is coming at us next week. Which direction are they going to attack us from? So thank you very much.
Have a good weekend. Thank you. GeRALD the common man they created Common Core to dumb down our children. They created common past to track and control us. Their Commons project to make sure the commoners own nothing and the Communist future. They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary. But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God. That is what we have in common.
That is what they want to take away. Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation. They desire to know everything about us while they hide everything from us. It’s time to turn that around and expose what they want to hide. Please share the information and links you’ll find@thedavidnightshow. com. Thank you for listening. Thank you for sharing.
