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, the 4th of September, year of our Lord 2025. Well, we have some important news today, and it’s good news, actually. We have in Florida, the governor and the surgeon general, ladapo are saying that they’re going to remove the mandates around the childhood vaccine schedule, all of them. So all the requirements have MMR and schools and all the rest of the stuff would be taken away. That’s going to be a seismic shift and there’s going to be a big fight to push back against that.

It’s already begun politically, but we hope that that’ll happen. There’s also some updates as to what happened with the Epstein meeting on Capitol Hill yesterday. And people are there’s now an increasing movement to force this vote. As you got Squeaker Mouse Johnson still showing that he’s going to guard our pedophiles. That’s what GOP means when he’s in charge. And we’ll take a look at some of the other news that is happening in terms of tariffs, in terms of Leno’s law in California. Yeah, they want to get rid of even classic cars and they’re going to do it with smog tests.

We’ll be right back. Stay with us. Foreign start today. Travis. Yeah, good morning. Welcome to the show. Today we’re going to start with what’s going on with Epstein and the survivors. We’ve got Epstein document dump blows huge hole in Pam Bondi’s missing minute theory as pressure mounts for Trump to disclose the truth. In other words, she was just lying from the very beginning. Surprise, surprise. Who could have seen that coming? And Magarep says Casey a lot bigger than anyone anticipated. That’s from the Daily Mail. Nancy Mace leaves meeting with Epstein victims in tears after hearing stories Nancy Mace spotted walking about Epstein meeting in tears.

This is a. Again, their stories are horrifying. What happened to them is a tragedy. Yeah, it is. There is. There’s a movement now within. They needed to have two Republicans plus all the, plus all the Democrats to push to have this information released. Mike Johnson is fighting against them. It’s crazy. This is a guy who wants to hang his hat on being a professing Christian is the most unchristian thing I could imagine. But anyway, he, he’s out there trying to stop that. And they need two more Republicans. Well, they picked up three MAGA darlings that. We’ll talk about that.

But I don’t know if Nancy Mace is a darling, but you had Luna as well as MTG strongly coming out. It’s amazing that some people are actually leaving the MAGA plantation over this. Yeah. Watch live Reps Ro Kahan and Thomas Massie hold press conference with Epstein victims after Thomas Massie introduces discharge petition to release all Epstein files. That’s by the Gateway pundit. We know their names. Epstein victims say they’re making their own list. This is not a hoax. Epstein survivors speak out demanding files be released. That’s from abc. Epstein had a free pass. Survivor links for victimizer to our current president From Raw Story.

Tens of thousands of Epstein related records from DOJ released. Oversight committee says doing Trump’s dirty work. James Comer accused of Epstein cover up to shield the President. Those are the articles that we’re going to be covering today. In the Epstein segment, you talk about people getting off the MAGA plantation. Same thing is happening with Israel as well. So you have people because of the conduct of this war that’s happening there and they’re handling it the same way you now have. Netanyahu wants a global war on free speech. And so this is the same thing that Mike Johnson is doing.

And it’s interesting because these two things are not unrelated. I think one of the main reasons that Trump and the Republicans are trying to cover up this Epstein stuff is because of the connection to Israel. So the Epstein document dump and they. The one minute missing, the missing minute theory, the. I guess they call her the Minute Woman instead of the Minute Man. But she’s not ready. She’s ready to defend these pedophiles at a moment’s notice. But she put out the. And I said at the beginning, I said, I’m not buying that, that they always have to reset the cameras right at midnight.

I said, that sounds like they’ve got to rewind the videotape. I don’t think that’s the way they’re doing it anymore. Not even the Bureau of Prisons, I don’t think is that far behind the technology. Also, if you’ll remember, it turned out to be about three minutes that were missing from the video. Wasn’t just one minute. And even if they had had the entire thing without any missing minutes, it wasn’t the only angle to get to his cell. It’s the missing angle. You can get to and from Epstein’s cell without walking in front of that camera. It is entirely pointless.

Even if they had an entire uninterrupted video. It’s all a head fake. You’re absolutely right. And that’s what this massive document release, 30,000 plus pages, is. It’s also a head fake because they pointed out there’s only about 3% of that. That’s anything that’s new and it’s not significant. And so they timed that document release to try to have a vote, saying, well, we want to continue the committee to investigate. We don’t want to have a vote. As Massie and others are moving to have a vote. They don’t need to give the committee a vote to continue going on.

It will continue to go on regardless of whether they have that vote or not. So Johnson calling for the vote, the release by Comer, who’s running the committee of these 30,000 pages, all of that was timed so that they could steal thunder from the victims who met on Capitol Hill and then went in and had a meeting with several of the people that were there. And it’s interesting because the people who have peeled off on this, on the Republican side, it’s not just Mass, it’s Massey. It had been only Massey, and now it’s Massey plus three women who are signing on to the release petition.

And one of them, Nancy Mace, was very upset. We got a picture of her as she came out. She had been crying and she would not. She just waved off all the reporters and walked very quickly past them. That video is in the board. What’s that? Yeah, I know. I’m going to get to that in a moment. Well, anyway, they had a meeting and this is what MTG said there at the rally. Good morning. This is my fifth year in Congress, and this is the largest press conference that I’ve seen since I’ve been here. And this is because this is an issue that matters so much to Americans.

This is an issue that doesn’t have political boundaries. It’s an issue that Republicans and Democrats should never fight about. As a matter of fact, it’s such an important issue that it should bring us all together. It’s grieved me to watch the arguments and debates take place among my colleagues and even the administration. I think this is something that was worth fighting for. You see, the women behind me are going to tell you stories that you’ve never heard before. These are unimaginable horrors that they’ve lived with for their entire lives since they were very, very young. But these are also similar stories that many children, teenagers, women, and even men are enduring nightmares right now as we speak.

You see, these women have been fighting since the 1990s. I heard one woman tell us yesterday since 1996. And they have carried with them shame. But I want to tell you something. The shame does not fall on these brave, courageous women. The shame falls on every single person that coldly turned a blind eye to their abuse. The shame falls on every single person that enabled it. The shame falls on every single person that took money to continue it. And the shame falls on the people in power over the past several decades that protected the monster, Jeffrey Epstein.

And and his protector today is Mike Johnson. What a weasel this guy is. Squeaker Mouse. Johnson and his leadership team have a plan to vote on a separate Epstein related measure. It would simply instruct the House Oversight Committee that is investigating Epstein to continue its ongoing investigation. But the committee does not need a vote to continue investigating. And so this whole thing is to give them cover to say that they’re doing something when they’re not. And that’s the purpose of all of these inquiries and committees, to investigate from Trey Gowdy to everything that’s going on now, Trey Gowdy and Benghaza, Benghazi and all the rest of this stuff.

What happened with JFK Commission. They put these commissions in with the express purpose of pretending that they’re doing something when they don’t do anything. And you can see that nothing ever gets done with any of these. So experts are now saying the vote on Johnson’s Epstein related package could provide political cover for members to say that, well, we’re working on it, when actually they’re not. And Thomas Massie wrote, speaker Johnson just scheduled this meaningless vote to provide political cover for the members who don’t support our bipartisan legislation to force the release of the Epstein files, to drag them out of the clutches of Pam Bondi and Donald Trump and his administration who are hell bent on covering up for the people who are involved in this.

Isn’t that amazing? Several top former government officials also expected to speak with the committee about Epstein, including Labor Secretary Alex Acosta, who gave the sweetheart deal to Epstein and who when he was questioned because Trump then wanted to have him as Labor Secretary. It’s amazing how all these people around Jeffrey Epstein were also the inner circle of Trump. What a coincidence, I’m sure. Funny how that just happened. But he said he was the one that said at the time, he said, I was told to back off and go easy to paraphrase it because this guy was connected to intelligence.

And so that’s the guy. They’re going to call him in again. Acosta. The victims who reportedly ranged in number of up to three dozen were not notified of this sweetheart deal until after it was struck. So you have on the defense team, you have Alan Dershowitz, you got Ken Starr, who covered up for Bill Clinton. What a dream team you’ve got going on there. And on the prosecutor side, they’ve got Alex Acosta and the victims were the ones who were ignored in all of this stuff. Also they have on the schedule to talk to them. Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton subpoenaed to set for interviews in October.

The committee has announced. Well, again, they’re just going to stonewall with this. And it really is just a cover up from Comer. He has asked the administration to also hand over suspicious activity reports. This is the money trail. And this is going to show the large payments that he made to some of these individuals. And those would be probably people that he was blackmailing. SARS are created by financial institutions and sent to the treasury to flag potentially dubious transactions. So again, they won’t release that and have not released that as yet. We were talking about Nancy Mace leaving the meeting in tears after hearing the stories.

This is her. Let’s see, where is her? Here it is. No, that’s not it. Here we are. This is her walking down, just silent, walking very quickly. You can see she’s been crying as she walked past everybody. No comment. Later on she said, well, this was after you had six of Epstein’s accusers met with members of the committee. Comer was there and Mike Johnson was also there. Interesting that he’s not moved at all by the testimony of these people who were harmed by Epstein. Mace is one of four Republicans who have signed the petition. Other GOP lawmakers who have signed are Lauren Boebert of Colorado, Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia, and Luna, I think from Florida.

All women. So three women plus Thomas Massey are the only ones who have left the guarding our pedophiles party. That’s their club. So they held their press conference there with some of the victims. And in terms of signing on to the resolution, MTG had this to say. I was the second co sponsor on Thomas Massey’s resolution. After reading the entire resolution, I think it’s very good. It’s well written, it protects the victims and it provides the transparency that the country deserves and most importantly, the survivors deserve. Yes, I will be proudly signing the discharge petition. Why is it important to do this in addition to what the Oversight Committee is doing? Me personally and I believe in transparency on all levels.

And this shouldn’t have been a battle. And unfortunately it has been one. What does that tell you about your party. Myself, as a mother of two daughters, I can’t imagine any young girl or any young woman being victimized and having the government and different people in power. Mike Johnson, and basically a cabal of powerful rich people as well as the government, cover this up and not prosecute these monsters. Well, what’s going to happen with that right now? Ro Kahana, the Democrat who put this together with Thomas Massie, said that there were 12 Democrats and 12 Republicans had signed on the petition.

I’m not sure who the 12 Republicans are. And Massie says that 134 have already signed on the petition. There are 212 Democrats. They need to have 218 signatures. So they said that 12 Republicans have shown support. So they haven’t necessarily signed it yet, but they say they’re in support of it. And again, there’s the 33,000 pages that were released as a head fake. Rokuhanna recently said the press conference will feature victims who haven’t spoken for decades. And we’re going to play some of the things that they said. He said when the American people actually hear from the victims for the first time, they’re going to sympathize.

Their hearts are going to be broken. Unlike Mike Johnson, who doesn’t care at all. The man has no principles about anything. It’s amazing. He doesn’t care about the Constitution, he doesn’t care about the economy, finances, any of that. He doesn’t care about wars, and he doesn’t care about pedophile rapists being let go either. So the victims came out and said, we’re going to put together our own list because we know their names. Transparency is justice. Release the files, end the secrecy and stand with us in declaring that no one, no billionaires, no politicians, not world leaders, is above the law.

And let me announce now, several of us Epstein survivors have been discussing creating our own list of names. We know the names. Many of us were abused by them. Now together as survivors, we will confidentially compile the names we all know were regularly in the Epstein world. And it will be done by survivors. And for survivors, no one else is involved. Stay tuned for more details on that because history is watching and so are the women who will come after us. Thank you. Well, Trump continues to dismiss this as a hoax. And of course, we have seen this type of alibi before.

I’ll never forget when you had the page scandal. And by the way, there’s something very similar to that happening now within the gop. There are text messages from these old gop pedophiles to younger staff members that they’re trying to cover that up as well. I remember the paging scandal that happened and it did not directly involve the speaker of the House at that point in time, Dennis Hastert, but he was there as part of the COVID up. And I remember him going on with Rush Limbaugh and saying, this is all just a hoax. You know, this is all partisan.

They’re coming after us because we’re Republicans. There’s really nothing here. And it turned out there was something there. And it turns out that we all found out that Dennis Astor was a pedophile before he became a congressman. That’s why he became a congressman and he was the longest serving speaker of the House. So he’s got a. Johnson is following an established Republican tradition, isn’t he? I will say, I want to preface this by saying I fully believe that Donald Trump is involved with Jeffrey Epstein and that there are a lot of victims. Yeah. I will say it’s a bit strange that they came out and said we’re going to publish the list instead of just starting to name names immediately.

Yeah, it is. Once the cameras were on them, it almost feels like they’re trying to extend the attention they’re getting. Yeah. And I thought that her, her laughing about it was kind of. Yeah, it’s a bit strange. Undermining ye. So there’s some feel. Something, something feels a bit off to me. So just keep your eyes peeled. Don’t ever trust in anything 100%. I feel terrible for these women. I don’t want to discredit them in any fashion. I’m just saying something feels a bit strange about this. Well, it’s like with anything else. It’s like this is a political war and in war, the truth is the first casualty.

And so what’s going to happen is even if what they say is true, if they say it in a strange way, like kind of laughing about that, people seize on that. Trump will just discount all of it as being a lie, even though his, his best friend Jeffrey Epstein, he were an item for like 15 years. I think that’s the key thing to remember, no matter what. Is, there’s these, there’s who knows how many pictures of Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein as good buddies, close friends. There’s the book where Trump sends him that little drawing. Yeah.

There’s all this evidence. And I’ll be the first to admit I have a tendency to kind of smirk and laugh no matter what I’m talking about, whether it’s a Serious subject or not, but personally, something feels a bit strange. Yes. Well, Thomas Massie put this out, saying, because Trump’s response is always that it is a hoax. Massie said, it’s not a hoax. President called this a hoax. It’s not a hoax. If it were a hoax, there wouldn’t be so many victims and survivors of it. You know, if you had one or two people say that something happened, somebody might dismiss it and not believe them.

But when you have this many people talking and still talking about it and willing to risk their own personal reputations, then you know it’s not a hoax. That’s right. Through tears, a group of women who say they were victimized by Epstein shared their stories on Capitol Hill as they called on lawmakers to support the release of records. So there was a press conference that was out to the public. There was also the meeting that you saw Nancy Mace come out of in tears. I guess they got into more details there. And Mike Johnson was at that meeting.

He was not moved to tears or moved to do the right thing either. Can’t get blood from a stone. Yes. The first survivor of Epstein and his longtime associate Maxwell was the one that stepped to the podium and said that the victims are coming together to have their voices be heard. They are sweeping this under the rug. Are over. We are survivors and we say no more. I’m no longer weak, no longer powerless. I’m no longer alone. Your vote neither. And with your vote, neither will the next generation, she said, President Trump, you have so much influence and power in this situation.

Please use that influence and power to help us, because we need it and the country needs it now. Yeah, people are just. I think a big part of this is that people are just upset about the lack of honesty and authenticity. And I think this is why this is coming to a head. When you look at the fact that Trump has lied about so many things and how he has killed people with his lies, it’s, you know, I kind of look at this and say, why this issue? But I guess we could also say, why not this issue? So Trump responded, this is a Democrat hoax, and it never ends well.

It is not going. It’s going to be an albatross around his neck for a very long time, and he and Mike Johnson are not going to be able to escape the scrutiny with this. They only make themselves look worse as this decaying albatross starts to stink more and more around their neck. There was a time in America where just the association with someone like Jeffrey Epstein would have been enough. To torpedo him. There was a time when people understood. There was a time when somebody was openly bragging about how they ditched their wives for a better looking model.

That would have been a disqualifier. People understood bad company corrupts good morals and he has kept not just bad company, but the worst evil company. Well, people used to understand that if you don’t have character and you don’t want to obey, you don’t want to stick to the oath that you took to your wife, what are the chances that he’s going to disobey his oath? They take the Constitution. He doesn’t care about any oaths. The man has no character. That’s the whole point. That’s why people would focus on that. What kind of a character is this person? Well, Trump is a character.

He has no character though. And so one person said, I am a registered Republican. Not that matters because this is not political. However, I cordially invite you to the Capitol. Meet me in person so you can understand this is not a hoax. We’re real human beings. This is real trauma, said Haley Robson when asked by ABC News correspondent about Trump calling the matter a hoax. I had never been more scared in my life than the first time he hurt me, one woman recounted. She said she first met Epstein when she was 14. I know that I was just a little kid, but sometimes I feel that it was my fault that this happened.

And we hear that all the time from kids who have been, whether it’s heterosexual or homosexual, they say. I felt guilty about this, I felt ashamed of this. I couldn’t talk about this. This is why this statute of limitations on pedophilia is so damaging, because it shuts this down. They know that the pedophiles who are in charge of our country know that. That’s why they have put that in the law, to protect themselves. Anyway, she said we need to see behind the curtain. Why was Jeffrey Epstein so protected and why is he still protected? Who is, who is it that’s protecting him and who protected them all? So the world can understand how Jeffrey was able to abuse so many of us for so long? Well, you can.

To all the people who protected Epstein, we know for sure now that we got Trump and Mike Johnson, they have come out as protectors of the men of club rape. One of the things I truly don’t understand is how I’ve seen so many people still defending Donald Trump and a lot of these people absolutely despise Israel. Not just on that they object to the Gaza genocide, but they’re More on the side of we want to destroy Israel as a nation. And Epstein is fully tied in with Mossad. It is an obvious link right there. Yeah. And therefore his closeness to Donald Trump and that link there.

So Donald Trump is obviously in some way dealing with the Mossad there. Yeah. And they just don’t see it. They refuse to see it. It’s just. Whatever. It doesn’t matter how many mental hoops they have to jump through, what kind of gymnastics they have to engage in. They will do it to protect their idol. They like to talk about Trump derangement syndrome, and that’s. The left just hates Trump so much that, you know, they. They just can’t contain it. But on the supporters and maga, this double thing they’re capable of doing, it is a delusion. They suffer from Trump delusion syndrome, and they disassociate him from the things that they hate.

Even when he is focused, like you were saying, even when he is clearly focused and pushing the things that they hate, like the vaccine or whatever, or Epstein. You can go down the whole list. There’s a whole bunch of things, and there’s absolutely nothing conservative about Trump. He’s not interested in conserving the Constitution. He’s not interested in conserving morality. The guy has always been pushing the edge of those of the morality issue. And so it’s one of them than anything we saw with Obama. You know, the Republicans, people on the right would point out incorrectly, so that the left were just transposing what they wanted Obama to be onto him.

That’s right. And this is much more absurd than that. It is, yeah. Yeah. Towards the end of Obama’s administration, you had. Who was it? Was it Harry Belafonte? I think it was. I want to say Sidney Poitier might have been, but I think it was Harry Belafonte. Anyway, he said, I don’t know who this guy is. Let’s talk about Obama. He said, I think we just projected what we wanted and our values onto this guy. But that’s not who he is. That’s who we wanted him to be. And MAGA has not learned that lesson. I don’t think they ever will, frankly.

But this is. One person who spoke out, said that Epstein had a free pass and she linked him to Trump. This is a picture of her when she was the age that she said she was molested by Trump. I’m considered number 27. I’m Donald Trump’s 27th sexual assault victim. When I was doing Sports Illustrated, that’s when he assaulted Me. Jeffrey Epstein walked me into his office to be sexually assaulted by him. Yes. And Shantae Davies. And I’m not sure if that is Shantae’s Davies. I mean, that woman said that. I don’t know her name, but Shontes Davies also brought up Trump.

Or maybe that was who she is. After explaining how she was brought into Epstein’s circle with a promise of helping her career, she noticed that her victimizer bragged about his influence and friends in a way of threatening her. I realized how powerless I was. If I spoke out, who would believe me? Who would protect me? She said Epstein was the most powerful leader of our. He himself was the most powerful leader of our company. Epstein surrounded country. He surrounded himself with the most powerful leaders of our country in the world. He abused not only me, but countless others.

And everyone seemed to look away. The truth is, Epstein had a free pass. He bragged about his powerful friends, including our current President Trump. It was his biggest brag, actually. And while what I endured, it will haunt me forever. I live every day with ptsd. I live as a mother trying to raise my child while distrusting a world that has betrayed me. This kind of trauma never leaves you. It breaks families apart. It shapes the way that we see everyone around us. But one thing is certain. Unless we learn from this history, monsters like Epstein will rise again.

Yeah, there will be. Unless we reclaim some moral foundation basis for our society. This type of thing, it’s always there. Even if you punish it, it’s always going to be there. But if you turn the other way and you do not punish, grows very, very rapidly, becomes a turbo cancer. It’s already a cancer. Why was Ghislaine Maxwell the only one held accountable when so many others played a role? Why does the government hide this information from the public? Well, the people who went through the document release, that is the Democrats, said that 97% of it was already public.

Only 3% contained any new information, and that that was not significant. So they’ve accused James Comer of doing Trump’s dirty work to shield the president. Critics say the release was a smokescreen, mostly rehashing public material deliberately dropped just before a critical vote and just before the press conference as well. This has been going on for six weeks, said one Democrat, Congressman Moskowitz. He just released 30,000 pages a day before a vote. He could have released it, you know, over the last six weeks, but they waited just enough. They held these documents from the public. They held onto them so they could release them.

The day of the petition to Try to get all the documents released and say, well, hey, you don’t need that. Here’s 30,000 documents. But it’s also the day of the press conference. Comer actually is the one who gets to decide what to release and when, what to redact on his own and when to release it. So there is no transparency, he said. And so that is where we are with all of this. It is truly amazing. One other person had this to say. I have spent the last 17 years in my own prison for what she, Jeffrey and all the co conspirators did to me.

I was raped repeatedly. I was raped three times a day sometimes. And I was not the only girl on that island. There was a constant stream of girls being raped over and over and over again. And yes, Elaine must die in prison because I’ve been in hell and back the last 17 years and 27 for me. I was 10 years old when the Stein was being trafficked. I was 10. That is how long the sex trafficking ring has been going on for. Yeah. Well, we’re going to take a break and we’re going to read some comments first.

But when we come back after the break, we’re going to talk about tariffs and we got some small business people who are talking about how their lives being destroyed by these tariffs. What government does matters. And we have to understand what they’re doing so we can try to protect ourselves. You know, I saw a slogan the other day that I thought was very appropriate. I can’t change the direction of the wind, but I can change my sails. And that’s what we need to do. We need to understand which direction the wind is blowing and we need to understand these politicians are blowing smoke.

That’s really what is happening right now. It’s just amazing to me when you look at these tales about what these women have suffered. The same thing was done with the vaccines and you had Ron Johnson have hearings and people spoke out about how Trump’s genetic code injection harmed them. And yet what happened? Nothing happened. Nothing at all. And so I’m afraid that’s what’s going to happen here. But it’s just we have to chip away at this so that people can perhaps see the truth at some point in time. You want to look at some of the comments here before we go to break? Yeah, we’ve got comments here.

BL Houghton says shame on the Republicans for protecting Trump and Epstein. Yes, they’re all in it together. Big Brit is back again. Even years ago, the reason Epstein got a cushy sentence was Because Fed said, go easy, he’s an asset. That’s right. As we said, Alex Acosta was the one that gave an easy sentence because he was told. And let me just say this, it just shows what a cesspool the CIA and all those people are. I mean, over and over again you see a little glimpse into what they’re doing and the kind of prostitution rings that they’re running to blackmail people, which is what this is.

But, you know, subjecting people to drug tests, participating in the occult, everything. These people, one of the most evil organizations out there. You have people talk about, well, let’s look at the Freemasons or the, you know, the Club of Rome. All the rest of stuff is like, look at your own government, look at the CIA. It’s absolutely unbelievable what these people do. Even the CIA was doing it for our own interests. Even if it was acting in the best interests of America, this would still be a horrific ends justify the means policy, which is never the case.

Yeah, it would still be radically immoral even if it wasn’t completely and utterly diametrically opposed to our own national interests. But it’s both. They don’t even try to make the case that it’s in our national interests and it’s not in our national interest. These are just wicked, evil people who control the lovers of power. And whenever I look at it, I’m always reminded of the temptation of Christ when Satan said to him, I have it in my power to give this to whoever I wish. And so it is a satanic cabal. And when you look at what they do and you look at the power that they have, I don’t see how you can see anything other than a satanic cabal in the intelligence agencies.

Yeah, yeah, we’ve got Yona, Annie Wodey Epstein List hoaxed itself. That’s right. They found it feeding itself into the shredder and there was nothing they could do. It was truly awful thing that happened. Opossum King Maxwell is already free. Well, she, she was definitely moved to that low security prison where there’s no cameras allowed. So who knows, maybe they’ve got a body double in there doing time for her. Denver Attaway. U.S. judge on Tuesday rejected the government’s demand that Google sell its Chrome web browser as part of a major antitrust case. Oh, but they will impose other penalties.

That’s why Google and ABC. That’s where it ends. B.L. houghton. The real names will come out by the victims. And I can’t wait because I think I know many of the names, I’m sure that we could all just, through speculation, get pretty close. Yeah, we’ve already had some names that have been put out there. But you know that thing about Google, just, just look at Google. I mean, I have seen it personally, how they have cherry picked things to try to portray me as a radical racist or whatever. And they purged everything that I had on YouTube.

Of course they purged me. Even when I put Christmas music up on another channel after I’d waited a while and just put some music up, they purged that as well. But I had interviews that had millions of views and the only thing you could find for a while was interview that I had with one of the white South African farmers. They put that up there because they wanted to portray me as a racist. That was the only thing that they left now that has even been removed. Google is a so called search engine that is designed to hide things.

I’m one of those things that they’re trying to hide. I detest Google. If they offered me to go onto YouTube now, I wouldn’t do it. I don’t trust those people. It’s funny, a lot of people that had been banned for some reason YouTube has gone on an unbanning spree. So I’ve actually been curious, wondering if maybe it was possible. But it doesn’t matter, we just get banned again eventually. There’s no point in building up an audience. We’ve got B.L. houghton. The flyover while the victim was speaking was shameful. I didn’t, I didn’t realize that. Yeah. Opossum King Trump already said it was a hoax, but he said again, it’s a hoax.

It’s a hoax. Yeah. All those photos probably. I probably can’t trust anything these days. B.L. houghton. Every crime Trump commits is explained as a dem hoax or witch hunt. Yeah, They’ve basically completely inoculated him by being so completely insane and apoplectic over the years. Yeah, they cried wolf so many times that now, even though the guy is a wolf, you know, people have been inoculated against it. Yeah, that’s the only inoculation that’s been effective. BL Houghton says they can’t stop what’s coming. I hope not. Atomic Dog. I’m shocked how quickly MAGA has turned on mtg. It’s quite surprising.

But she has gone against Trump in the White House on the Epstein issue. Yeah. If you’re disloyal to the head of the party, it’s immediate. They become rabid. That’s all that matters. To these people. They don’t care if he kills or harms millions, tens of millions of people worldwide. They don’t care if he is part of pedophile ring. You better not criticize Trump or they’ll come after you. They have their gods and they are fiercely worshipped. Yeah. And Laura Loomers are high priestess. What a nightmare. Molly Brown Dog. I hope they live long enough to publish that list.

Yeah, yeah. Tunnel Lord 13:37 says this has to be fake. Why wait so long to release the names until now when all the cameras are on them again? I. Something seems strange to me, but you know, things like this, who knows? There’s always the potentiality again in something like this. And with how corrupt and weird DC is. You can have bad actors attach themselves to any movement you have. And when you say, why would they. They could have done this years ago, why wait until now? Well, like I said before, they have. Even though they’re not.

A child is not guilty. A child feels guilt when they are sexually molested by a predator like that. And they’re also afraid and they’re also ashamed. And in this particular case, they’re very much afraid of. They know that he’s connected with the CIA and other murderers like that. So they’re afraid. One of the witnesses put out a thing on social media, said, I’m afraid to even come to the United States. So that’s why they waited for years with this stuff. I certainly understand why they would do that. Makes a lot of sense to me. Yeah. You see people hesitant to come forward with regular cases.

These. This is a case of the most powerful richest people in the world. That’s right. That’s right. We’ve got Tunnel Lord says these women could have done this years ago. Why wait until now? We just talked about that. North American house hippo. I hope their cars can’t be remotely accessed. Yeah, we don’t. It was Michael Hastings that had his car hacked into and then killed. Big Brit is back again. I know some have been bumped off. Yeah. A possum King Trump. Ready to start two more wars. Well, you gotta be a lot says what I was about to say.

Gotta have a distraction. Yeah. When all of us fails, they take us to war, as Gerald Swinty says. Yeah. And he’s ramping things up in Venezuela now too. You know, it’s like, oh, they don’t like the war in Ukraine. No. Not a fan of what’s happening in Gaza. Venezuela, perhaps. Venezuela. B.L. houghton. Yet Trump claims he ended seven wars. Name them, please. Yeah. I’d like to know, please explain which seven wars? North American House Hippo. I don’t know why the left hates Trump. He’s given more than they could have ever dreamed of. Yeah, he’s accomplished a lot for the left.

Not really anything for our side. Jerry Alitalo. Peter Thiel is strangely silent slash mum about Jeffrey Epstein’s 40 million investment in Thiel’s businesses. Most suspiciously, palantir. Yeah, that 40 million is now worth 170 million in Epstein estate. Yeah, yeah. Isn’t that funny? Funny how he keeps cropping up in all these places. And again, you know, that’s another indicator of how he’s connected to the intelligence committees there. Because one of Palantir’s big investors at the beginning was In Q Tel, which was the CIA’s venture capital firm. They had been giving money under the table secretly to companies.

And with In Q Tel, they came out in the open and they started funding these companies that now control the Internet and use it for surveillance. Guard Goldsmith says Johnson is transparently Machiavellian. Yeah, he’s not very good. The thing is, when you’re transparently Machiavellian, that means you’re not very good at being Machiavellian. He’s not. Yeah, they can’t. They don’t even do it right. Good to see you, Guard. I hope you’re doing well. Of course. Guard hosts Liberty Conspiracy. So go check that out on his TwitterardGoldsmith. And it’s at 6pm Colombo 27. Just as George Carlin said years ago, it’s a big club and you ain’t in it.

Washington D.C. is fallen and corrupt. This is one club we can be thankful we’re not a part of. Yeah, people call it Rome on the Potomac. I call it the District of Caligula. It really is Skunk Hollow Rose Gardens. Those women should be awarded good old fashioned revenge. Hope we get justice for them. Lou G. For Liberty. The most powerful evidence outside of the testimony of these victims are the videotapes that the FBI have. Don’t hold your breath on seeing them. That’s right. I would be surprised if they still exist. I have a hard time believing that they actually keep evidence of these things around as opposed to destroying them.

And if anyone asks, you know, years later going, oops, I guess we lost it somewhere. Yeah, well, you know, just like that videotape of the door into Epstein’s cell. There’s so many things that were happening with that. As Lance pointed out, there were other ways that somebody could get to a cell. But they didn’t even release that. But the thing was heavily edited. They got caught with that with the metadata on it, showing that it was a composite of several different videos and had been edited significantly. It’s like when they released, when Obama released his birth certificate and it still had the Photoshop layers on it.

They just make a lie so incredibly absurd that you sound ridiculous talking about it. Yeah, yeah, we’ve got Stall. I think the reason YouTube is laying off censorship is so they can start making a list. Potentially. Potentially. Pretty sure they already have us on a list. Yeah, I’m already on their list. But the, the thing is I, I don’t want to have them make any money off of me. Yeah, I know that they’re going to keep the lion’s share of anything they make off of it. And you know, there’s, there’s no point of being on there.

See the trick then I was. Never mind. I mean, I was monetized when I was in at Infowars. I didn’t gain the money from it, but the. You know, even if I were to get on, I seriously doubt they would monetize me, but they would still make money off of it. See, the trick is then to upload just the largest file black screen you can to eat up their server real estate. Yeah, and they can’t monetize it because no one will watch it. Guard Goldsmith and Ghislaine Maxwell Sis Christine is with a Mossad tied software company that’s programming on virtually every US government computer.

Huh. Surprise, surprise. Yeah, I didn’t know that. Same old people crop. Same old institutions crop up all over the place. Stall, everything we type is probably going into Palantir’s database. Oh, almost definitely. Well, yeah. I mean everything that we do on the Internet has been going into the NSA’s massive storage. I mean they put that big data farm out in the middle of the desert, Bluffdale, Utah and storing it there for the day that they can go back and start data mining and collating the information. Well, that day is here now. And I’m sure that they’re already doing that now with Palantir and with AI.

Yeah, it’s. They’ve been scanning and scraping everything for over a decade at this point. Audi mrrd Goldsmith, Were you aware that Ghislaine Maxwell’s father Robert was a frequent visitor to Mother Teresa’s orphanages? Do the math. Wow, that’s horrifying to think about. I did not know that Jerry Alitalo, Donald Trump would break his own world record for Machiavelli and political deception were he to announce that Palantir is a hoax. Nothing to see here. Karen Carpenter, 27. Good to see you. Hope you’re doing well, Karen. Some of these women were testifying against Epstein in 2008. Yeah. States back.

Yeah. They had three dozen women who testified, and that’s what we said earlier. They didn’t even notify them, the victims, that they were going to do this sweetheart deal with Epstein. And again, it was like the deal that Otis, the town drunk, had in Andy Griffith. You know, he would walk around all day and then he’d get drunk and then he’d come in at night and sleep there in the jail cell. And that’s what Epstein did. They let him out all day and he’d come back at night. Yeah. Important financier business to attend to. Yeah. Whatever that is.

Yeah. To the usual stuff. We’ve got tunnel Lord in 3037. Surprised Trump doesn’t start a war with the cartel. I’m sure the supporters would get very distracted with that one. Well, it seems like he’s going to try. That’s what he’s trying to do in Venezuela. He claims that Venezuela is the drug lord of several different countries cartels. And the intelligence declassified documents have already said that they did not believe that. But that doesn’t matter. He’s amassing a big military force and talking like he’s going to do some kind of Panama invasion. Never let the truth get in the way of a, you know, good set of theatrics.

We’ve got Karen Carpenter. Watch the entire press conference for more background on these women. Many have spoken out before. We need to scroll down. We got BL Houghton. Yes. Responding to Karen Carpenter. I have watched many videos of the victims this summer on YouTube speaking about their abuse under Epstein Maxwell, and talking about meeting Trump and less Wexner, of course. Les Wexner is the CEO of Victoria’s Secret. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Who brought the lingerie shows to mainstream tv. Well, we’re gonna take a quick break, folks, and we’ll be right back. We’ll talk about the Trump tariff threats, and there’s some amazing statements by small businesses about how this is destroying their business.

One woman said she’s going to wind up homeless soon if they don’t change this. 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 well, as Brian Schulhavi at Health Impact News writes In his headline, he’s absolutely right. Trump’s tariff threats are uniting the world against the United States. He’s absolutely right. And we see this at the Shanghai Cooperative Organization Cooperation Organization. I’m sorry, SCO had a summit and you had the Indian leader as well as Putin go there and a lot of other countries as well.

Because what Trump is doing with his weaponization is continuing on with what Biden did. Yet again, just like with the vaccines, we see the one, two punch, the partisanship that is removed from this. It is a bipartisan effort to push the vaccines, to push the destruction of our financial, I guess you could say our exceptionalism. They’ve got to destroy that. Got to destroy the dollar as a reserve currency and destroy the Western financial system so they can impose the new system. And Biden and Trump have both done this significantly with the sanctions and now with the tariffs from Trump.

They differ by their tactics slightly, but it has the same purpose. And just as we saw with the pandemic nonsense. So the clip that has been pushed out by the media there in India is very significant, shows them all shaking hands, smiling and riding each other’s cars and giving each other pats on the back and compliments. And again, Trump is creating this by his threats and bullying. Trump’s new 50% tariff threats against India for buying oil from Russia. And that’s the big part of it. Not only are they arbitrary and capricious. Arbitrary, but they’re capricious because if he gets upset with somebody like India, he does that.

And of course, he’s ignoring the H1B visa thing. That’s about our jobs. He cares nothing about the jobs on Main street, and he cares nothing about the small businesses that he’s destroying, just like he didn’t care about them in 2020. He is making the whole world enemies of the US by his constant threat of tariffs made against countries that have long been allies, the United States. I mean, just think back to. To the Canadian hockey fans booing the national anthem after Trump’s bullying of them over this imaginary. And you don’t want to talk about a hoax.

That was what the claims about fentanyl coming in from Canada were. That was a hoax. And what it did was it made Canadians even hate us. You can imagine that other people who don’t have the close ties that the Canadians have to usually how much they hate this kind of bullying. As a matter of fact, when you look at Levi just told. It’s in Levi’s Jeans just told its investors. We’re concerned because we’re seeing our international sales drop because of anti Americanism. It’s anti Trumpism is what they’re angry about. And the same thing happened with the Superman movie that just came out.

Did very well here domestically, but did very poorly abroad because people were thinking that this is going to be truth, justice in the American way. And they had it with the American way. After what Trump has been doing, his, as Brian Shohavi put it, he had a double humiliation. As Xi embraces Modi and Putin, the US India bromance is well and truly over, thanks to the president’s double dose of tariffs, says the UK Telegraph. If Trump hoped to bring India to heel, things are not going to plan. Narendra Modi has not only proved unyielding, he is also giving the US President the silent treatment.

Since Trump singled out India with an unexpectedly draconian double dose of tariffs earlier this month, he has reportedly phoned the Indian prime minister on four occasions to seek a compromise. Each time, the Indian leader refused to pick up. He’s not taking his phone calls anymore in the same picture, which is funny because I’m continually getting calls from Indians. That’s right. Mr. Modi has twice spoken to his quote, unquote friend Putin and dispatched his foreign minister to Moscow. This weekend, he traveled to China for the first time in seven years to attend a security summit hosted by Xi Jinping, the Chinese president.

But of course, this is really also an economic summit. Really. The two men, long estranged, now bound by circumstance, will hold talks on Sunday. And they don’t talk about it. But remember, it wasn’t that long ago that there was this disputed territory where India borders China, and their military was fighting each other. But now, because of Trump, they’re smiling and shaking hands and embracing each other because of Trump and his economic policies. We had two countries that were literally killing troops that were killing each other on the border. Now he’s driven them together. Weren’t Trump’s terrorists supposed to increase manufacturing in the U.S.

well, that’s not happening. Tariffs continue to be unstable manufacturing contacts for six months in a row, said the ism, which tracks that the trade wars are slowly dying down. The damage to American manufacturers is not, says Market Watch. Industrial production fell in August for the sixth month in a row, according to an index compiled by the Institute for Supply Management. The ISM surveys executives every month about how their businesses are doing. ISM manufacturing index rose to 48.7% in August from 48% in the prior month. Any number below 50% signals contraction. Tariffs continue to be unstable, said one executive.

Orders across most product lines have decreased. Financial expectations for the rest of 2025 have been reduced. There is too much uncertainty for us and our customers regarding tariffs and the US and global economy. You know, we talk about these taxes. There’s, there’s different. Taxes are theft, end of story. Okay? But they can be even worse than theft. Like I talked about the old example of, like Sander Spooner. He said the difference between the highway robbery and the government is a robber just steals your purse. The government follows you down the road, nagging you about everything, right? And so you can make up a tax system like the income tax, that is odious and complicated and was used for many years as a tool of surveillance, but also as an entrapment and could be weaponized against enemies.

But then you can also have the tariffs. And the thing about tariffs is that they can destroy. You know, power to tax is a power to destroy. But Trump’s uncertainty and his vacillation over this has created a situation where the businesses don’t know what to do. They can’t. You know, they could, if they had a, even a high tariff, if it was something that they could know was going to be there, they could factor that in and adjust that in some way. But when it’s constantly changing, they’re afraid to go in and pay 50% more for all their inventory.

They couldn’t make a profit then to try to sell that, so they would lose all that money. So everything is freezing in a lot of different ways. And we have some of the small businesses are begging for help. Here’s one person, drastic hit for us. We have a quarter million dollars in inventory stuck in China right now. Can’t ship it here. We don’t have $400,000 to pay the tariffs that Trump wants on those right now. So we’ve had to freeze all shipments, all orders, all production. And sadly, we’ve had to let go of most of our people already this year.

If these tariffs don’t end tomorrow, we’re out of business in months. You’ve had to let go, people. How many people have you had to let go? Yeah, we’ve had to. We had 12 people at the beginning of the year. We’re down to five employees now. And Trump doesn’t care about that. And we were told Hillary Clinton was one of the people who was openly contemptuous of small businesses. I remember when she was doing her Hillary care, trying to take over health care with the federal government, and people were talking about the effect it was going to have on some small businesses.

And she said, I don’t care about these under capitalized businesses. And she really didn’t. And you know, she called people that she disagreed with politically. She called them, what was it, Deplorable. Yeah. And Trump called them expendable. And because essentially they’re not essential businesses. The essential businesses were the big guys who were giving him money, who were operating on Wall street, who could operate at a loss for a very long time, but the small businesses cannot operate at a loss for very long time. So he’s done this once before, now he’s doing it again with tariffs.

And this is a woman who says that her small business is going to be put out of business. And she said she had poured capital from a home mortgage into her business and she could wind up homeless. Currently have 3 months worth of inventory sitting at my factory that I cannot bring to the US I have maybe two months worth left in my warehouse in Minnesota. And when that’s gone, I have no more revenue. I cannot pay my employees, I cannot pay my bills, I cannot pay the loans which I have leveraged my house against so we could lose our house.

I do not have the $230,000 that were just immediately dropped in front of me to get my products into the U.S. yeah. So I am asking, begging for support from both sides of our, both parties to support our small businesses and get rid of these tariffs on US owned small businesses. It doesn’t just affect me when I go out of business, it affects all of those contractors that I pay to help me with my business, all those American owned businesses, my trucking company that brings me my container, the bookkeepers and accountants and marketing teams that work with me to have the revenue they’re getting from me.

And I’m just one business that’s at risk of going out of business. You locked them all down five years ago and was going to put them on a hurting just people importing from China. I think that one of the things that drives me the most crazy about this is that we have big companies like Apple who have a connection in the White House. They know who to call. They have the wherewithal to give a million dollars to President Trump’s inauguration ceremony. They get seated right up there on the dais on inauguration day when the people standing with us today have no capacity to accomplish that.

And what happens? Apple gets a carve out and these guys are left holding the bag. And that is wrong and we cannot put up with it. Yeah, it’s called corruption, crony capitalism. And that’s what this is all about. So let’s hear from the man that Elon Musk said is dumber than a sack of bricks. This is Peter Navarro. He is saying that he’s very optimistic that the Supreme Court will strike down the tariff ruling. So he thinks he’s going to win, which means that all these people lose. And you and I see our prices of things are going to go up.

This is weaponized partisan injustice at its worst. He says, we want our new tax. You know, this is like I said before, Donald Trump is a classic New York City Democrat. Tax and spend Democrat who thinks that you can spend your way to prosperity. That used to be the way that Republicans would speak about Democrats. Not anymore. Because if Trump does this, don’t criticize Trump. That’s exactly what we’re talking about. Whether it’s Epstein or Israel or the economy. Don’t criticize Trump, no matter how unconservative he is and no matter how much he’s against the Constitution, even if it was a policy they would have actively or did actively complain about under Biden or Obama.

When Trump does it, it’s okay. Well, you see, when the president does it, it’s not illegal. That’s right. So Navarro, the sac of bricks, said, if we lose this case, Trump is right. It’ll be the end of the United States. What utter nonsense, idiotic lies. That’s a hoax, folks. It’s not the end of the United States. They’re trying to end the Constitution, frankly. Since taking office in January, Trump has made tariffs a pillar of foreign policy, saying that they are the way to correct unfair trade practices. Except what he’s doing is he’s undermining America’s power as well as its finances.

He’s making enemies of everyone, as we just said from the article with Brian Shohavi pointed that out. So, you know, they say he’s trying to correct unfair trade practices by countries that export goods in the United States. Except that’s not what happened. You know, he put penalties, massive penalties against countries with which we had a trade surplus. We were selling them more than they were selling to us. And he punished them. That’s why I say this is incredibly stupid. Elon Musk was right. This is dumber than a sack of bricks. You get tariffed if you’re outdoing us, then you get tariffed if you’re not, because, you know, Trump only likes winners, I guess, or something.

That’s what you get for being dumb. So Zero Hedge article says the Trump administration’s used tariffs as leverage against countries, particularly China, Canada and Mexico, that he says haven’t done enough to prevent drug trafficking. Yeah, that fantasy hoax about fentanyl from Canada. Look, it’s just this is one of the worst forms of taxation that we could have literally destroy the United States of America is what Trump is saying. Yeah, well, says the guy who is literally destroying the United States of America and its Constitution and its small businesses. This is what is the result of his vacillation, his chickening out.

I mean, he’s moved the markets rapidly back and forth based on his pronouncements. And it’s one of the reasons why that in their wisdom, the founders did not want to have one individual be able to arbitrarily make these kinds of moves. You don’t want to have one individual decide to take us to war or not. You don’t want to have one individual who’s going to arbitrarily set interest rates and the money supply. They didn’t even want to have anything that would remotely be able to do that. They wanted to leave the interest rates to the marketplace, not to some central bank, certainly not to one man as a president.

And they didn’t want to have taxes, tax policy done by one man either. And that’s what tariffs are. They’re just another tax. And it’s an additional tax. I mean, for years we have had people who did not like the additional features of the income tax, besides theft. Talk about there’s got to be a different way. So people have talked about all these different things, flat taxes, and you name it. We’ve had a lot of different approaches. The thing that’s always stopped it in the past before with Republicans, with people saying, yeah, the problem is we’re going to wind up with both taxes.

You’re going to wind up with some kind of a vat, for example, plus the income tax. And this does resemble a VAT in a sense, the tariff tax. You never get the government to take anything back. Once they have it in place, it’s there forever. Well, it’s not just the small companies that are going bankrupt. It’s large companies as well. Michael Snyder has an article. Companies are going bankrupt at the fastest pace since the global financial crisis, the one back in 2008. He said large companies are filing for bankruptcy, the fastest pace in 15 years. Is that a good sign for the economy or a bad sign? We are a nation that is absolutely drowning in debt and bubbles are starting to burst all around us.

He said 446 large companies filed for bankruptcy during the first seven months of this year, the highest total that we’ve had since 2010 when we were clawing our way out of the mess that they had created with the mortgage fraud so far in 2025. Meanwhile, the total of 446 bankruptcy filings is the highest for the seven month period since 2010, when we’re at the tail end of the crisis. And I think it’s one of the reasons why, you know, when all else fails, they take you to war, as Gerald Salenti has said. So we see what is happening in Venezuela.

You have the as Antiwar.com said, the US is deploying multiple warships towards Venezuela’s coast, appears to be preparing for a regime change effort. I showed the footage yesterday that the US Is very proud of bombing a boat that they said was a drug boat, killing 11 people, they said. And the person who posted it up said, this is what I voted for. I would never vote for that. So that’s According to the U.S. according to Newsweek, the U.S. has deployed nine warships, including three guided missile destroyers, three amphibious assault ships, and one nuclear powered fast attack submarine toward Venezuela.

The state purpose of the deployment is to combat drug cartels, but there’s no evidence to support the US Claim that Maduro is a cartel leader, signaling the real purpose is another regime change effort in Venezuela. The Trump administration claims Maduro is a leader of the Cartel of the Suns, a term used to describe a network of Venezuelan government and military officials allegedly involved in drug trafficking. It does not actually exist as an organization. Maduro and other Latin American leaders, including Colombian President Gustavo Petrov, have denied U.S. claims and so has the U.S. intelligence agency and documents that have been made public.

But that’s not going to stop Trump. He shamelessly made claims about Canada being a source of fentanyl. It’s just ridiculous. President Trump must be careful because Marco Rubio wants to drag him into a war against South America and stain the Trump name with blood, said Maduro. Well, I think he’s already got it stained with blood. It’s pretty much red. Yeah. Yeah. Well, we’re going to take a quick break and when we come back, we’ve got some news about Leno’s law in California that I think is kind of interesting and it shows just how hell bent California is on getting rid of all cars.

And we’ve said for the longest time that has been the agenda. It’s not about internal combustion engines. It’s not about any exhaust fumes of any cars. It is simply about ending all private transportation did you want to cover these? Yeah, let’s look at the comments. We’ve got Dougalug. And thank you very much, Dougalog. We appreciate it. And of course, if you’d like to leave a tip, you could do so on Rumble or you can subscribe on Kick. Thank you all for that. And thank you, Douglug. He says thank you, David. Let’s all hit the like buttons and help get the word out.

Yes, please do hit the like. Wherever you’re watching or listening. It does help. We appreciate it. North American House Hippo. Attendance at Universal Orlando in Hollywood is way down due to the Canadian and overseas boycott. My wife gets off work hours early every day. And also in Vegas. I mean, they’re having a real hard time in Vegas. And it’s, you know, our authoritarian government has made it so difficult for people to travel here. They’ve arrested tourists and given them incredibly harsh treatment because of minor paperwork infractions or whatever. And people are rightfully afraid to come here.

They say the House always wins, but maybe they met the White House because Vegas seems to be losing this time. Defy tyrant 1776. The rulers are never held accountable because Satan will never cast out Satan. Yeah, the only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good people to do nothing. It’s we the people who are supposed to hold these evildoers accountable. Audi Mrr. I remember when I thought that the Obama birth certificate scandal was nonsense. Turns out Obama really was a foreigner. Yeah, well, the thing is, the worst thing you could say about Obama was the fact that his mother and his grandparents were so deeply embedded in the foundation of the CIA.

To me, that was the worst thing about Obama. That’s far worse than whether his dad was a Marxist or whether he came from Kenya. Any of that other speculation, what we knew about him and what they were proud of was the most damning thing. I think, you know, his grandparents kind of being in the OSS and CIA, and his wife, his wife, his mother working for nsaid and that’s, you know, the CIA. He was a picked individual. He was one of their golden boys. Yeah, let me be clear, North American house hippo. If YouTube is laying off censorship, I sure haven’t noticed when I used to, where I used to get tens of thousands of views, I now get dozens.

YouTube’s algorithm and the way they do things is incredibly screwy. It’s just none of it makes any sense. And who they choose to censor and what they choose to let through has always been a confusing mess. Yeah. As I Get older. I just try to cut out the Sisyphus tasks in my life. I’m tired of rolling the stone up the hill only to have it roll back down on top of me. Some Sisyphus is taking the day off. BL Houghton responding to Nibiru 2029 and Trump got Melania US citizenship on false pretenses. Denver Attaway reminder that Marco Rubio’s brother in law was a prolific cocaine trafficker.

Yeah. Yeah, she was Chinese. I didn’t know what they were doing there. All these people have very interesting connections. The real Octo spook It is unfortunate. Americans cost of living forces them to buy foreign products and business is now just resellers of foreign goods. That’s what I was thinking during both those clips we played. That’s right. Just that both these two companies going under and their main business model is importing things from China.

Yeah. A large part of that. Why are American products and why are American houses expensive? Scott Besant when we get to the economic stuff, when Tony joins us, Scott Besant said that they’re going to do something about the housing emergency this fall. And so you gotta ask yourself why are houses so much more expensive even counting in inflation, just like cars? It’s because of over regulation, things like that. That’s one of the reasons why. But they’re not going to do anything to pull back regulations. They’re not going to make America a freer market, a more competitive market.

And those are the types of things that really need to be done. If you want to have jobs, if you want to have manufacturing in America, you got to get government’s foot off of people’s neck. And they’re not about to do that. Instead they’ll kick foreigners. We’re going to keep importing more H1B visa workers so that we can have our own slave under class because Americans won’t work for those kind of wages. Yeah, we’re going to all be slaves on the plantation. The Wellness Warriors Tariffs are a planned attack on small businesses. Yeah, absolutely. Just like he did in 2020 has been the worst president for small businesses in my lifetime.

No president has killed more small businesses than Donald Trump. And it’s not even close. Not even close. Defy Tyrant 1776 Please DK stop believing Trump is making any decisions. He’s not. He’s Just like Biden wasn’t making any decisions. He’s a puppet of his handlers. Well, you know, like, like Woody Allen said, he’s a great actor and that’s what these people have got him in there for. You know, the Rothschilds understood that Wilbur Ross. And so Wilbur Ross gets put into the Commerce Secretary position, same place that Howard Lutnick is right now. That’s a position where they can go in and really operate.

That should be called the Department of Crony Capitalism because that’s what that really is about. But you know, you look at the people that go in the Commerce Department and you know, who’s controlling Trump in terms of money? Yeah, yeah, we got Doug to double oh, seven says it’d be nice if we had more choices. It’s hard to find anything that is truly American made these days. Yeah, it’s very difficult. And when you, you do buy, find something that’s American made, it’s usually three to four times more expensive than the other products. Which that is now just the cost of doing business in America, just as that’s why I say, you know, they have inflated the cost of doing business.

One of the things that you take for example, what’s happening in Germany with the automobile industry and manufacturing in general, the UK as well, you can’t have manufacturing there. Why? Because they have made the price of electricity and power so expensive they will never be able to compete with China because they have given China essentially a discounted monopoly on power generation, which is what you need for manufacturing. And that’s going to be true. Even if you go to fully automated factories with robots. It’s still going to be China’s advantage in terms of being able to use the cheapest and dirtiest power sources according to their evaluations.

Again, I don’t care about any of the smog stuff that they’re so freaked out about. Just as a slight anecdote about the cost of things from my own personal if you know, I like pocket knives, I have a small collection of them. I find them interesting and I’ve always found them interesting. Buying an American made pocket knife is generally again, four to five times more expensive. There’s this company called Medford Knife and Tool. Everything is made in the United States. They’re all extremely high quality. Each knife is, you know, multiple hundreds of dollars because that’s what it really it takes for them to make a profit because they manufacture everything in the United States.

China makes knockoffs with their knives that are probably, you know, 7/10 the quality, 8/10 the quality. And you can pick it up for, you know, under $100. Yeah. And that is just, you know, you get 7, 10, 8, 10 for a fraction of the price. And that’s the calculus most people are going to look at. They’re going to look at, well, I could buy American made and I can spend hundreds of dollars, or I get most of the way there and I’m going to spend, you know, $50. And nobody’s going to look at it and say, why is the American stuff more expensive? Is it because our government is forcing through regulation for things to be more expensive because they’re arbitrarily raising the price of power? You know, there’s so many different factors that are there, but nobody will ever get to the root cause of it.

And, you know, to go in and to set up protectionist tariffs. And by the way, these are not protectionist tariffs. There are some for steel and metal, aluminum and things like that, but I don’t agree with those. But the, for the most part, these are tariffs that Trump is putting out there literally to attack other countries, to push them around. And it’s not about making money or even trying to protect an industry. This is simply about a raw exercise of power. You bow the knee to me and you do what I say. And that’s why there’s this big pushback.

And so he is there to destroy the. He’s there to destroy the American financial advantage in the American financial system that we have had the advantage of having since World War II. That’s his mission. That’s why these people are pulling the strings for him that way. Absolutely. We’ve got a few more comments, and before we move on, I saw a YouTube video about this YouTuber that was trying to make a product that was entirely made in America, every part of it. And it was a very simple thing, just a grill scrubber. And eventually he had to give up.

He couldn’t find all the pieces he needed. He kind of got it. I believe it was a bolt that he couldn’t get. And he mentioned, like, this is just a simple quarter 20 bolt. And it was like, I think it said his uncle used to work at a factory just a few miles down the road from where he lived making these things. And now he couldn’t find it made in America anywhere. And then there was some other slightly more specialty piece that he couldn’t find made in America, at least in the right quantities. So he’s like, all right, well, you might get one.

That’s one of the few made in America ones or you are going to get one of the many Chinese ones. Yeah. And nobody wants to ask why that is. And certainly the government is not going to address the fundamental problems. They never do anything. They always make a second mistake rather than admit to the first one. Yeah. Americans used to have this advantage in a massive up step in quality. When you bought an American product, China didn’t have the manufacturing capability. They didn’t care to make a quality product. It was all about mass quantity. But they’ve been able to steal so many designs from American companies now that again, they get about 7, 8, 9, 10 of the way they’re in quality.

And then they undercut them massively on price. So the American advantage in terms of quality is mostly gone at this point. Yeah. The one thing they had is almost completely gone, which is once that’s taken care of. What do you have? Yeah, you mentioned that knife manufacturer. It reminded me of Microtech and Vespa. Microtech used to be made in America, I believe. Then they shipped their manufacturing over to China and then another company, Chinese company called Vespa Knives, came up making exact clones of the Microtech knives just with a different logo sometimes or it’s a counterfeit with their logo.

And they are pretty much identical to the Microtech knives to the point where people have actually taken them to labs and had the material, the metals examined and found that it’s the exact same high quality metals that they use in the Microtech knives. And the microtech Halo is $800. The Vespa equivalent is 120. So there. And it seems to be from the same factory, made from the same materials to the same specifications. You just don’t get the warranty. As you all can see, my sons become knife affectionados and I guess that’s my fault because I got them some Lord of the Rings sword replicas when they were very young and I never realized it was going to go this way.

It is spiraled alien poop. Evolution says you should visit the Smoky Mountain Knife works. We have. We have, believe us. We’ve got Marky Mark in New Jersey. I believe there’s a UNIT party. But I also agree with David in that it’s like the Corleone versus the Tataglias. Yeah, These people are evil and evil does not get along even with itself. If they were to wipe us all out, they’d immediately start scheming on how to get rid of each other. Yeah. Guard Goldsmith. I’m glad CNN is covering this though. They were absent on it when Biden Imposed tariffs to not as an extreme extent as Trump admittedly and shut out Russian fuel.

Yeah, yeah. And it didn’t accomplish his objective. You know, it made. It was windfall profits for Putin because the price went up so much and he was able to sell it through back channels and do it in his own currency or in exchange for gold. You may not like a bandit, it was an epic force failure. But what it did was it began the unraveling of the American financial system. People said if they can seize hundreds of billions of Russian assets, they could do that to us too. And so they started looking to strengthen the whole BRICS parallel economic system that they’re building.

Yeah, we’ve got Tunnel Lord 1337. Tariffs are just another form of economic warfare in the population. I’ve got another comment here from Tunnel or he says when you see Chinese prices of clone products, it tells you what Americans could charge for their products if they lived in a similarly unregulated market. If you didn’t have the government putting these crushing amount of regulations on businesses, they would be able to manufacture things at a much more reasonable price. When you look at it, the Chinese government is allied with businesses. They see that as building. Yeah. They not only subsidize them and own them, but they do everything they can to help them to succeed, especially with exports.

Whereas the American government is an adversarial relationship with any business or markets. Yeah. Once you get past a certain size, the government becomes your friend. But before that, they are absolutely opposed to you and have been my entire life. I mean, I grew up hearing that all the time. The regulations and other things that were being done to small businesses. My dad had one. We’ve got Yona, Annie Wodey. How are we going to fight any foreign war, especially against China, when we can’t even build ships anymore, much less fill our own Walmart and Dollar Store Shel with American made goods.

I don’t think the goal is to win a war. I really do think that they want to use that as part of a societal remake. You know, you look at the destructive policies that have been put out by both Biden and Trump in the last five years or so. I think that they are working very hard to destroy this country just like the Europeans are working hard to destroy their countries. Part of the great reset Christian constitutional conservative tariffs are a federal sales tax on us. That’s right. It’s like a vat. Well, we’re going to take a quick break, folks, and we will be right back.

Sam, you’re listening. To the David Knight Show. Well, Tony’s gonna be joining us in about 10 minutes, but instead of getting into the kind of the general news, I wanted to get into lead into Tony coming on talking about some economic issues. Give us some headlines, Travis. That’s right. On the economic front we’ve got Trump’s attack on the Federal Reserve reminds us why the Fed shouldn’t exist at all. It’s from the Free Thought project Gold hits new record high as Dalio fears Trump stoking imminent debt induced heart attack. That’s From Zero Hedge. $4,000 target. Inside is gold’s breakout just beginning says market strategist.

That’s from Kitco analyst who called three crashes warns of fiasco of margin calls as current risk is worse than 1929. Another Kitco article, US Treasury Secretary Threatens Russia with new sanctions because they worked so well in the past. That’s from RT Besant. We may declare a national housing emergency in fall. That’s from Zero Hedge. Navy bond markets spike as PM hires high tax fanatics. Threat of ID cars for all hard left Rainers. Ambition is the talk of Westminster and armed police. Father arrest father Ted writer for tweets leaving millions asking when did Britain become North Korea? That’s from Daily Mail.

That was a mouthful. Jolted bonds, gold and crypto soar after labor market meltdown from Zero Hedge. One of the things that we see here is that we’ve got several different analysts talking, referencing back to 1929, referencing back to the creation of the Fed and other things like that, but also seeing that we are in a cycle. And again it is a fourth turning and that’s a hallmark of the fourth turning. Trump’s attack on the Federal Reserve reminds us why the Fed shouldn’t exist at all. This is a free thought project is originally from Future of Freedom Foundation.

That says a very bad idea to have a president deciding monetary policy, which he is and wants to do. Just like he’s doing with the tariffs, he wants to do that with interest rates and they’re going to declare an emergency in housing and there’ll be some executive orders and some dictates coming from Trump and Scott Besant coming up in the fall. So we’ll have to wait and see what they’re going to do to jump into that marketplace with their psycho bricks ideas. But they said it’s a very bad idea to have a president deciding monetary policy because presidents inevitably want to use a monetary system to benefit themselves politically or in the case of Trump, to benefit themselves personally, I would say.

But they Said that’s what we have had planned chaos during the entire existence of the Federal Reserve. That has been planned monetary chaos. Because no one, no matter how smart, can centrally manage something as complex as money, especially in a very complex market economy like that of the United States. You know, this is really kind of the central planning flaw. I’ve talked about this before. When you go in and start to centrally plan things, it doesn’t matter if you’re the smartest person in the room or in the world even you’re not smart enough and you don’t have enough information to make that decision wisely.

That’s what the marketplace is for. That’s why when you have the marketplace and people are able to make free choices unencumbered by government regulations and other things, it’s like a neural network that fine tunes things. That’s what you had Adam Smith talk about, the invisible hand. A lot of people are making decisions, they’re thinking about that, and it’s the collective decisions of all these people that guide the marketplace, rather than some person who thinks he’s smarter than everybody else. The framers established a totally different monetary system, one that had no central bank as well as no paper money.

From experience, they knew that if they established a paper money system, the president or central bank would end up printing vast quantities of paper money to finance their schemes and their wars. They knew that the inflation of the monetary supply would end up going on forever. That the government would be able to plunder and loot the citizenry through monetary debasement, the indirect tax of inflation, which is what we’ve seen for the last slightly over a century. So the Constitution established monetary system based on the official money being gold and silver coins rather than paper money. The federal government was only given the power to coin money, not to print it.

And the states were expressly prohibited from making anything but gold coins and silver coins legal tender or official money. In fact, people are actually using their savings a hundred years ago to invest in hundred year bonds issued by corporations because they knew that they would retain their value since they were payable in gold coin. You know, when I was in the hospital and just out of sheer and mind numbing boredom, we were watching television around the clock and there was a Andy Griffith episode and there was this old guy, he didn’t have any money and Sheriff Taylor had to go there to evict him and he’s commiserating with him and trying to do it gently and all the rest of this stuff.

And it’s the city that’s evicting him because he’s behind in his taxes. And as he’s helping him, they find that he’s got a bond from the city of mayberry that is 100 years old. And it was like for only $100. And it was from when the city began and with accrued interest and all the rest of the stuff that was there. It turned out that it was so much money that it was going to bankrupt the city if they tried to have to if they had to pay him. So he was now in the catbird seat with all this stuff.

But that’s the effect of, you know, people used to do long term bonds like that. It was like this elderly man’s great grandparents or something and put that in. You don’t see that anymore. And that’s why when the Federal Reserve arbitrarily drops the price of interest rates that they charge to the banks on short term interest rates, that’s why you haven’t seen anything change with home mortgages because people are looking at this and saying, well, I know that’s going to be inflationary. Whenever they drop the interest rate, it has exactly the opposite effect. The interest rates either stay the same or they go up because the market is looking at this and saying these lower interest rates to the banks are going to create inflation and I’m going to lose money if I don’t make this interest rate higher.

So that’s the conundrum that we’re in right now. That’s why Ray Dalio is saying we’re going to have a debt induced heart attack. It’s a good way to put it. But he’s also looking at how Trump has these authoritarian urges to micromanage everything because Trump sees himself as an FDR or Lincoln. And these are the guys who are presidents. We had a complete structural change of our country at these fourth turnings, the two prior fourth turnings. Well, we got Tony ready. I’m going to take a quick break and we’ll get him on the line here. And we will be right back.

Stay with us, Sam. You’re listening to the David Knight Show. We have joining us now on the line, Tony Arteman. And it has been a big couple of weeks for gold, hasn’t it, Tony? I was just looking at the prices and I was going to talk about this a couple of days ago. From Friday to Friday it went up 2% and then from this last Friday to Monday it went up 3%. And then in 24 hours it went up another 2%. It’s really hitting all time highs all the time again, isn’t it? Worry everything’s fine, David.

The financial system is fine. Nobody’s running for the exits. Central banks haven’t broken all the records by hoarding gold. They now held about 36,000, brought in about 10 tons of gold which was down. And that looked like to be a trend except for the rest of the world’s going for gold right now because of all the instability. I mean you talked earlier about the chaos of the sanctions and the tariffs and things that the Trump administration is doing and markets do not like uncertainty. That’s right. And that is showing up right now in spades. And you know the all time a good reason for it getting started and it’s a good reason they don’t like uncertainty because you look at businesses, whether they’re small or large, they can’t operate with this kind of uncertainty.

You know, they don’t know if they’re buying in at something’s going to be 50% higher than it’s going to be in a week or two. This kind of whipsaw stuff is just the ultimate insanity. It’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever seen. Yeah. If you wanted to create an environment where the United States had a robust economy, you would do different things than what’s being done right now. And especially you know, I mean some of the gold price certainly is the anticipation of the lowering of interest rates or the replacement of the Fed chair or whatever that is.

I mean there’s, there’s something built into the gold price there. But I’m, I’m really of the school and talking to you over the past few years, if we noticed together that the Federal Reserve really didn’t affect the price of gold and you know when they’ve raised interest rates usually that will decrease the price of gold and gold hit all time highs in the face of them doing that. Yeah. So I don’t think that the interest rate necessarily is that. I think it’s the geopolitical tensions and I think it’s the things like de dollarization David. I mean if you look at we just, you know, surpassed gold surpass a week.

The gold surpassed the, the euro as the second most held reserve asset by central banks. But now gold has surpassed the holding of Treasuries. US Treasuries, that’s another thing that just got passed in the last month or so. So the world now holds more gold than US Treasuries across the board as a reserve asset. So that’s another thing of the de Dollarization is, is still continuing to unfold. And of course, the media is so focused on everything that’s happening in the United States solely, and what’s going on with the Fed, what’s going on with Trump. They’re not paying any attention really much to this Shanghai Cooperation Organization.

I think it is the SCO that’s happening there. And that’s all a blowback against Trump’s bullying because that’s essentially what the tariffs are. They’re not about protectionism, they’re about bullyism, I guess is what you could say. It’s about bullying these different countries and it’s really destroying the system that America had made, continuing the work that Biden had done in his administration. But it is, as Ray Dalio said, Trump’s America is drifting into a 1930s style autocratic politics. And Trump is very happy about that. He wants to be seen as an administration that reorganized everything like FDR did.

And he’s really organizing it along central planning and socialist lines as well, I think. Yeah, because that worked out well in the past. Always the central planning always works out well. No, that is, that is, seems to be the theme. This really isn’t about economics. I mean, even for the short term, you know, if you look at the magic pill that Trump wants to push, which is the lowered interest rates or taking interest rates to zero, I mean, just make the money printer go, brrr. That’s really what he’s wanting to do. And you need a weaker dollar in order to play these tariff games.

And the sad part about all of it is that this funhouse mirror version of what the tariffs represent to the public now are not what their intent was or what they’re supposed to be used for, or what I, what I supported them for. Now I don’t, I have to back off of what of, you know, my previous support of things like tariffs, because I, I don’t think they’re being used in that way. It’s more of a, it’s more of a stick and no carrot. And you’re right about the rest of the world is they’re forming coalitions.

You can look at the easiest example of that would be brics, which is Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa. But, but it’s more than that. I mean, geopolitically, militarily, economically, all of the forces that are aligned against US Hegemony, which has been abused, are gaining strength and we look ridiculous right now. And that’s unfortunate. Well, as I was just saying, you know, we had India and China were fighting each other at one spot on the border not long ago. Now they’re embracing each other as friends because of Trump’s bullying. That’s what’s really happening with all this.

So Ray Dalio said there’s a strong autocratic leadership that sprang out of the desire to take control of the financial and economic situation, same as it was in the 1930s. And that’s really the path that we’re going on. And, you know, Trump and the people around him, whoever is making the policy, people around him know that they’ve got this massive debt that he’s growing by leaps and bounds, and they want to monetize that with inflation. They want to be able to pay it back with cheaper dollars, and they want to be able to pay it back at a cheaper interest rate.

That’s the strategy that he’s focused on, and that’s why he’s pushing so hard. And I don’t know, when you look at what’s going on with the Federal Reserve, they may be able to get this one person out. He may be able to intimidate Powell. Gerald Slindy always said Trump’s going to get whatever he wants out of the Federal Reserve, and because he did the last time, but he’s really put the screws on him with this stuff. He certainly has. And it’s. There really isn’t any other examples in modern US History of the president, you know, openly intimidating the Fed chair or calling for the removal of a Fed chair.

I mean, there’s examples of Lyndon Johnson supposedly bullied the Fed chair in the Oval Office, but that was in private. This has been open. And I think that begs a lot of other questions about the role of the Fed and what the Fed is and this private banking consortium and how much power they actually have and what the presidency represents. And a lot of this is still just a show. I mean, yes, Gerald Salente is right. Trump will get the rate cuts that he wants. That will happen. And I think that that’s just going to signal further inflation.

The era of inflating our way out of these crises, though, I think is coming to an end. Just everything that I followed over the years, and knowing what the metrics say, if you go to 130%, for whatever reason, that’s a magic number, David. But 130% of debt to GDP is where some sort of tipping point where most of the economists agree that’s. That’s a Rubicon. You cross that and there’s really no coming back. So I don’t know, you know, what the plan Here is other than, you know, short term fulfillment, which could be, I mean it could be just trying to pass the midterms and just buying some time.

You know, it’s the economy, stupid, always coming back when you get, and when you get debt that is so large it starts crowding out all the marketplaces. And that’s the key thing. You know, it’s the elephant in the room that is destroying everything. And the federal government, as it becomes larger, more authoritarian, more dictatorial, is crowding out all the individual decisions around there. That’s why it’s, it’s destroying the economy and we’ll do that. Ray Dalio says he gives it about three years, give or take a year or two before we have a big debt induced heart attack.

They’re, they’re going to drop the interest rates by a quarter of a point, by 25 basis points. Some people think that’s going to happen with 50 basis points. And a lot of people are saying gold is not done yet. So you’ve got a lot of people projecting $4,000 in the near term right now as well. And as I said, it’s been jumping leaps and bounds we’ve seen with this happening silver. How’s silver doing? Well, silver is at a, almost an all time high again. I mean it’s within striking distance of that. I mean $52.50 is the 1980 high.

But you look at 2011, this is the first time since 2011 we’ve hit over $40 an ounce. I’ll pull up live spot prices right now. We’ll see where we’re at. But I think the something happy $40.68 as of this broadcast is where silver is. So we’re above the $40 mark for the first time since I’ve been in business. For the first time since Wise Wolf’s been in business, we hit $40. So interesting to see there and I think we getting started. So this kind of goes back to conversations you and I had a year ago or more.

And I started to notice that these nation states and especially Russia were putting silver on the, as a strategic reserve asset. And I thought once that happened that a lot of these, the comics and the contracts and a lot of the paper and the ETFs and things that were papered over. I thought that that would start putting strain on the, between the physical dichotomy and the paper and I may be right there. Something happened and I think the, the days of cheap silver may be behind us. David, though where I was saying, you know, when we’re in the $20 range.

20, mid 20s. I was saying this is extremely cheap and I was saying it was cheap at mid-30s and it still is. Given what you know, its all time high has been. And of course what’s happened to the dollar. I think it’s extremely cheap. But it is interesting to watch it. Security message. Your computer has been locked up. Is that you or me? Address was used without your knowledge or consent to visit websites that contain. Hold on. Support immediately. Please do not attempt to shut down or restart your third party who’s jumped in on the line.

Stop illegal activity. Please call our support immediately. Yeah, you’re getting that gold price. I don’t like that message. Your computer has been locked up. I may have to, I may have to rejoin you, David. My computer just started like having a meltdown. I can hear it. Yeah, okay. Okay. You want to, you want to join us again? I’ll get back on the line. Okay. We’re going to reestablish contact with Tony and see if he can’t get the, the nanny that’s taken over his computer there. But you know, we’ve seen gold now, we were talking about silver, but we’ve seen gold kind of go horizontal now for a few months.

They call it consolidating its position or whatever. But now you’ve got gold analysts saying if you’ve been waiting to get in and wondering if it’s going to go from this consolidation point, has it reached the peak and is it going to drop down or is it just consolidating, ready to take off again? And a lot of this is psychology. And so you can learn sometimes patterns of, patterns of prices. Sometimes that reflects psychology. But like I said, I had a listener who contacted me and with a chart and said, I think gold is peaked out. And I disagree.

You know, you have to do your own analysis. But I disagree because I think all the fundamental things that are there, the problems in our economy I think are only going to intensify at this point. I think it’s going to be the safe haven that people run to because they’ve always run to it for millennia, they’ve run to gold. It’s real, it’s physical, it’s private. And all of these things matter more now than they ever did before. The physical nature of it matters more. The private nature of it matters more. Got some comments here. Some people want me ask Tony some questions when he comes back.

North American house hippo. I’m pretty sure when the founding fathers talked about coining money, they didn’t have Bitcoin in mind. Yeah, that’s not really a coin. And when you talk about stable coins, I don’t think they had that in mind either. They’re going to be tied to a paper currency that is not stable and they’re not physical coins either. And so we. Let’s see, this is somebody said to the guest that message he received was a scam by Indians who want him to call to disable them, change the notification settings in your browser and disable sites you don’t recognize.

Well, you can pass it on to Tony if you have a way to do that, Lance, that’d be good. I thought it was a scam because it’s not going to make that kind of repetitive statement to you all the time. Maybe it’s because he checked the price of gold at a particular site. The real Octo spook says with property income, cell phone, power, water, hidden taxes, et cetera, the average American is paying over one half of the gross income in taxes. Yeah. And that’s a big part of why things are expensive. It’s a big part of why our wages are more expensive.

And so again, it all comes back to taxes and regulations embedded in so many different areas. I mean, when you’re talking about manufacturing something, all the different requirements that are there for quote, unquote, safety that are not necessary, that we didn’t have before, and then the artificial inflation of the price of energy, all of that is a fundamental thing that they’re not going to look at. They’re just going to impose tariffs, which only makes things worse. Dougala. Send all of our manufacturing to China, then tax them to get the products back. I see the America killing scam now.

Yeah. The real Octo spook says we cannot compete with China in a lot of countries because the cost of living, it has killed the skilled American worker. Yes. But let’s understand that the cost of living is not one of these nebulous things like the pandemic. The pandemic didn’t do anything to us. It was Trump and it was other government officials who did that to us and the cost of living as a result of what they have done. Dga, thank you very much for the tip, says David. If Trump was on our side, instead of arguing with Powell, he would end the Fed.

Whatever happened to the audit of Fort Knox? Yeah, they kind of went away, didn’t it? It’s like so many of these different hoaxes that Donald Trump runs. That’s one of the reasons why, I guess he was his initial Reaction to the Epstein thing was to call it a hoax because that’s his game plan. That’s he runs one hoax after the other. Molly Brown Dog said, I can’t say therapists are protectionists. We don’t have much in the way of industry in our country to protect anymore. That’s right. Defy tyrants 17. That’s why he didn’t really focus on any industries.

He just focused on attacking other countries. I think defy tyrant 1776 says yes. The problem is most Americans will still pick the left or right. They’re both totally against them. I agree. That’s what I always hear. So you’re for Biden then, aren’t you? You know, and it’s like, no, actually I’m not. And so what’s your plan? Who do you want as president to save us? It’s like you don’t even understand that the presidency is the problem. It’s not going to save you. Go back and listen. Reagan was right about that. You know, government is not the solution, it’s the problem.

It was a wonderful soundbite of truth. But people don’t care about that anymore. Well, the gold price has risen to another record. And again, it’s whether they’re looking at a 25 basis point cut or a 50 basis point cut, that’s a big part of it. But that’s not the only thing that’s driving gold up. There’s many other things that are doing it as well. One analyst who called three crashes warns of a fiasco of margin calls and says that the current crisis is worse than 1929. Again, people are making all of these comparisons to the Great Depression and the last time we had something like that.

And that’s exactly where we are. We have gone through this cycle again. And I think this is going to be worse than that. I’ve been saying that for a decade. I said, I think in terms of the economic disruption that always happens when society goes through these cyclical crises they call the Fourth Turning. Whenever that happens, frequently we go to war. And I have said that I think that they want to have a war that is a combination of lasting three that we’ve had. In the United States we had a Revolutionary war, a Civil war and a world war.

And I said, I think the next one is going to be a combination of those. And I think that we’re going to have not a Great Depression, but I think we’re going to have a greater depression. The effects of what the technocracy is working on doing is going to be far more devastating than what the Great Depression was to people. And so we’ve got some more comments here. I’ll keep going with the comments until we get Tony back. Is he. Has he contacted you yet or not? He hasn’t tried to rejoin the Zoom meeting. He might be having some major computer problems.

It could have been a serious virus or ransomware or something. I don’t know. Okay. Christian constitutional conservative says tariffs were originally created thousands of years ago to tax exotic goods that could not be manufactured domestically. Yeah, in Rome. Absolutely. He also says, for example, the Roman Empire placed a tariff on black pepper because they couldn’t produce it themselves. Tariffs were all. While Trump makes billions on crypto. I agree. This is the plan. The power of industry has moved east by design. Getting back to that previous one about crypto, that is the move that the Trump family wants to make.

Eric has talked about that, about having these decentralized finance, the daisies, the defi, crypto, anything. So it’s going to replace the banks. That is their goal. They want to use stablecoin. They’ll use that. They think they can use that to prop up the dollar, and they think they can use that to replace the banks. And the Trump family is getting in on the ground floor of all that. They’ve got their tentacles and most of these things. And that’s what Howard Lutnick is all about. That’s why the guy at the Commerce Department, they are trying to completely destroy our financial system, rebuilt it with one where they have their tentacles in every aspect of it.

Sheila A. America is done. It’s being dismantled and sold off. The final nails in the coffin. Yeah, that’s going to be the. They’ve already talked about that. They said, you know, if we sell off public lands, we’ve got a couple hundred trillion dollars and all that stuff, and we can do that to get everything solvent. I think that is going to be the plan. You got to ask yourself, who are they going to sell it to? Who’s got that kind of money? Nobody asked them that question. Knights of Storm. I was looking this morning at my Wolf Pack tracker.

When I put that Together, gold was 1800 and silver was 20. Both are up 100% now. That’s great. And that’s the power as well as savings. Right. It’s very important to do savings and to do it on a gradual basis. And that’s what I like about what Tony does lot. With Wolfpack, you can gradually set aside savings. And if you do that with a bank account, with a checking account or a savings account in the bank where they don’t pay you any interest. Even if they do pay you interest, it’s not going to keep up with inflation.

But if you do that with gold and silver, you actually are saving something that’s going to keep up, keep its value if not increase it relative to a dollar. So again, if you go to DavidKnight Goldbell take you to Tony Ardman Wise Wolf Gold. And I think that Tony may be having some major problems with his computer. So I think what we’re going to do is we are going to take a break and I’m going to get Travis back in. And we’ll be right back, folks. Sat defending the American Dream. You’re listening to the David Knight Show.

All right. And we have. Travis is joining us again now. So he’s going to go through some of the comments. I’ve reappeared. We’ve got Shelley A says social credit system of the Chinese model. China is the model. It’s been decided. Yeah. Working towards it. That’s the stable coins are going to be. They’re going to be using the social credit system that’s going to be there. Exactly what it’s about. Steve Abs Horde gold and silver. Wise Wolf Gold is a good start or should go to David Knight Gold to start collecting gold and silver. Angry tigers dense as gold will drop down again.

You think they don’t pump and dump gold, especially with ETFs in play. Yeah, they manipulate it. And that’s why, you know, when we look at this we don’t really get too freaked out about the, the movements one way or the other because we know that they manipulate things. Make sure that you stay out of the ETFs though. If you. I look at gold and regardless of what happens with this, I’m playing it for the long term and I’m playing it for privacy. Do we have Tony back with us now? Hey, is he. Is he able to talk? Tony, is that you? I’m back.

Can you hear me okay? Yeah, I got you. Did you get that? The Indian scammers taken care of whatever reason. I don’t know if it was natural news or if it was one of the links from Drudge or what. It just. My screen just went nuts and it was. You couldn’t click off of it. So I’m sorry, but I couldn’t. I just shut down the entire computer and then reboot everything. I had no idea what that was. That’s all right. That’s the world in which we live. Yeah. There was a Couple of questions up there. We still have those that people had some questions for you.

We were just talking about, you know, what’s going on with gold. And of course it is. As Angry Tiger said, sometimes it goes up, sometimes it goes down. But long term, all of these different things that are creating the desire to have a safe haven are there are getting worse. And so that, I think is the key thing that people are looking at. I was just looking at, while we were on break, what Besant was saying about declaring this national housing emergency in the fall. He was saying rightfully identifying the problem. It’s not an emergency though.

It’s a. I think it’s a long term planned takedown. And it’s not some unusual thing that’s just kicked in. As you know, and everybody knows, this is a result of a lot of over regulation, mismanagement, inflation, other things like that. It is a reflection of where we are as a society. He says all things are on the table and he’s talking about how difficult it is to afford homes. But he thinks that the solution is going to be. He said, yeah, look at this, eggs. He’s saying this from a restaurant. He said eggs are cheaper now thanks to Trump.

And we’re going to have this lady who’s working here in a restaurant, she’s going to be in a much better position because she’s not going to have taxes on her tips. And it’s like, well, think through that. Maybe that’s what’s making things so difficult and unaffordable. It’s the taxes and the debt that you put on us. But they’re not going to do that. I imagine they’re going to come up with some kind of a free giveaway, don’t you think? Well, the price of housing, that’s an interesting metric because that reveals the scam of fiat currency, the price instability of currency that’s constantly losing value.

And the reason that the current generation is basically priced out of the housing market, I mean, was it 15 years ago the average home buyer was around 30 years old, David. Now it’s 40. Yeah. And so this. And that’s bad for everybody of young people have been priced out. It’s because the wealthier that you get, you will park funds in real estate because you can’t put it in a savings account. And a CD is not going to do much for you. So these wealthy people will just buy more and more houses. They don’t even live in them.

Yeah, and we see that with you want to talk about fueling the home Prices. Who’s, who’s this? Who’s the mega buyers right now? That’s BlackRock. Yes. You know, gone in, in 2020 and buying up massive neighborhoods and outbidding individuals. So there’s a reason why that, you know this with the de dollarization happening around the globe and the. Of course it’s interesting that BlackRock diminishing. It’s interesting that Larry Fink and BlackRock were so involved in the mortgage scams of 2007, 2008 and then managed to parlay that into his massive fortune that he has there. But yeah, as it goes up and we talk about generational thing, even people who are in the generation that I am who are able to afford a house, we have to look at this and say, and who are we going to sell this to? Right.

If the younger people can’t afford it, it’s a problem for all generations. That’s exactly right. Eventually real estate is worth what someone will pay for it. Yeah. It’s like when somebody comes to me with a, with a rare coin or something, or I have an error coin, I have this penny and I’m like, that’s really cool. And I looked it up on an app and it’s worth thousand dollars. And I’m like, that may be true. I don’t have anywhere to sell it. So I mean there’s, there’s a, there’s an issue with real estate. I learned this as a, I was a young real estate broker at 25 and that was the first business I ever started.

I called it Monticello Real Estate. After Thomas Jefferson’s home. I had my first real estate brokerage. And so I learned a lot about real estate. And of course it culminated with the housing collapse in 2008, 2009. And I went and started a different business. But I’ve been in real estate a long time. I think that we’re definitely going to see kind of an end game to whatever that was where you know, the American dream, the white picket fence and all this stuff and that everybody, you know, has a house, they’re priced out now because of what happened to the currency.

We have a currency crisis. Really, the currency crisis affects everything else. And then it just, just appears that it’s a housing crisis when really it’s a currency crisis. Yeah. And I think a lot of the younger people, if you look at what’s going on with, with Bitcoin, they’re, they’re buying bitcoin, they’re buying other things they can get into, they can own, you know, they can stack satoshis instead of buying real estate and they can own a piece of something that is finite. A lot of people think that way in the digitized world. And I think that will, that will show up in, in housing eventually.

A big portion of the housing market, I believe David, will be demonetized in a way. If you look at, I think it was, they did a study recently, it was British Columbia. Was it like you know, five, 10 years ago it would take 100 Bitcoin to buy a medium sized house and now it takes four. So like priced in bitcoin, the housing market is demonetizing. It’s actually getting deflationary. But priced in dollars, it’s inflationary. So I think a lot of this is going to work itself out as we go through the digitizing of currency and what’s happening with the dollar and where we land and this bubble, you may be correct, where people have, we’ve built up this housing with, you know, previous generations and sold and it has gone up and gone up and the priced itself out and you don’t have any buyers except for BlackRock.

Yeah. Who wants to own everything and you will own nothing. I have defy Tyrant 1776 says gold will be useless when CBDC is implemented, outlawed by government. I disagree because I’m looking. One of the reasons I put that article in this stack about the guy that was arrested when he went back to Britain because of his tweets. Britain is working very hard to give ID cards to everybody. This is something Tony Blair always wanted to do. Going back to Blair and Bush, they were all about national identity, right. And those things have stayed there kind of under the radar.

But they’re bringing them back now. And first of all, they won’t call it cbdc. They’ll give it a different name. But functionally it’ll be equivalent to that. It’ll be some kind of a stable coin. I would just refer to people who think that gold is going to be prohibited. I would refer them to the drug war. You know, gold is not something that is, you know, when you get something that doesn’t even harm people, right. You can look at drugs, you can look even at alcohol and you can say, well there’s a lot of people who don’t like that because of the harm that’s done to individuals.

And so they might side with that. But with gold prohibiting something like that, I don’t think that they’ll ever get away with that again. I don’t think people voluntarily turn it in. People are too skeptical about, and rightfully so of the federal government. Now to cooperate with that. As Gerald Slynty said, his dad or grandfather dutifully turned in their goal when FDR wanted it turned in. But that’s not going to happen today. If they were to outlaw gold, people aren’t going to turn it in to become an underground economy economy. And it would actually probably help it because we need something to get an underground economy going that’s in something, I think other than drugs, they don’t have the ability to prohibit anything they want.

They can’t really enforce that. No. Gold is one of those mysteries too. If you read, you know, I’ve read extensive histories on gold and I would refer people to. I just did a podcast recently with Alan Herrera who wrote the the History, Another History of Gold. I thought it was the most complex, well written history of gold I’ve ever read. And I, I did an interview with him a couple of months ago on my channel on Paratruthers. Check that out because it goes deep into how it’s interwoven into human history. So not just monetary, there’s, it’s just a part of our story.

It’s never going away. Communist governments, as you know, David, they temporarily outlaw people of having gold, but they love it. They need the gold. They hoard the gold. The governments do that never really, you know, and that’s the reason that FDR made it, you know, illegal for you to hoard gold or own gold and turn your gold in that executive order is because they wanted to transfer it back to the central bank and to the, to the bank of International Settlements. And that’s where a lot of the gold went. And so when it was turned, turned in and I might remind people, they turned it in and then they raised the price from $20 an ounce or $20.67 an ounce to, to $35 an ounce.

So it was a great heist that happened. So gold will always surround value and what we consider money. And there will be other things on the horizon as well, like things like Bitcoin or something like that, but gold will always hold some sort of value and will be considered money. I agree. I agree. So tell us a bit about what’s going on at Wise Wolf. Well, we got a lot going on. I’ve been in Texas the last week. I’m working on my physical location. I don’t know if I told you, David, but I bought an old branch bank, used to be a Bank of America, was a Texas state bank.

It’s like a, it has A drive through has all the stuff that. Anyway, it was. It was being used as a CBD shop or something and I. And it went up for lease and I’m like, all this stuff’s still intact. It’s still a bank. You could use it as a CBDC shop now, I guess. Yeah. So I’ve got the. I’ve got the bank and we’ve been working on converting it over. We’re actual. We’re operational right now for its. And I rebranded just for this location. I did Wise Wolf. Gold silver bitcoin have a new logo. And so we’re the only drive through gold silver bitcoin place in America as far as I know that anywhere.

So we’ve still got all the. All the bank stuff intact. I’ve got an office and a studio I’m working over there. And today was supposed to be my. It’s my last broadcast out of my house, which is funny. I’m gonna, I’m. When we get that done with the show to figure out what, what Alphabet Agency was trying to hijack my computer. But we’ll have a new studio over there and yeah, it’s been good. And you know, really just. Wolfpack is about to get an upgrade with a new website. And you know, in this day and age, for whatever reason, things move at a very slow pace when you try to do projects.

I, I don’t recall it ever. Everything taking this long. But we’re rebuilding the website for Wolfpack and that’s going to be exciting. We’ll do a big. Whenever we’re done, I definitely will talk to you about it and talk to your listeners and which is a great portion of our wolfpack members on what the changes are going to be made and we’re going to be offering some things. That’s great. Yeah. Jason was, Jason was talking about Wolf Pack and said, you know, we first started getting this stuff. He went back and looked at his records and both gold and silver have doubled in price since he did that.

And so, you know, that’s the beauty of it, you know, the fact that you can gradually accumulate this and it’s one of the few places where you can actually have kind of a savings program and not lose value, you know, like you would if you were to put it in a bank. That’s. That’s a wonderful thing that you’re doing. I don’t know anybody else that does that. It’ll be interesting see what you do with your drive through there at your new building. But that’s great. Tony, glad to Hear that? And I think it’s been a good thing.

And I’m always happy to promote gold and silver because it’s real, it’s physical, it’s private. And I think regardless what the markets do or don’t do, regardless of what people do in terms of manipulating the markets, that is a key thing for me because I understand what they want to do with this stuff with digital ID and other things. And we have to have some kind of an outlet outside of that. And I think people need to understand that. Like I said earlier, you can’t really change the wind, but you can change your sails in order to when you see what’s coming in.

I think that’s a very important thing to get out of their system as much as possible. We can’t do it completely, but, you know, start making those preparations. I think we’re just getting started, as a matter of fact. I mean, I look at the prices and I, I look at what the. The conditions of geopolitically and everything that’s happening, David, in history. I think we’re just getting started. It’s just the beginning. Yeah. Batten down the hatches and get ready. There’s an incoming storm. There’s a storm coming. That’s right. And. And I’m not q. I’m not talking about that kind of storm.

They’re not going to be coming for the pedophile networks. They are the pedophile networks. There’s a different storm that’s coming and it’s very different from that. Well, it’s always great talking to you, Tony. And you’re going to program that’s going to be following this one today, right? Yeah, we’re going to try to get it. Hopefully. We’re running the Arterburn radio transmission will be over on my ex at Tony Arterburn and Rumble on the America Unplugged channel. So come join us. That’s great. Okay, thank you so much for all your support. Really do appreciate it. And folks, we’re going to take a quick break and we will be right back.

You’re listening to the David Knight Show. Yeah, sure. Welcome back, folks. We’ve got a lot of comments here. Before we get to the comments, I want to let you know what we’re going to be talking about in this section. We’re going to be going over news in general. We’re going to talk about Leno’s law tossed out by Californian lawmakers, smog testing to remain for classic cars. You’re not gonna be allowed to have anything at all. You’re gonna get rid of all the beautiful classic cars on the road in California. You’re gonna be forced to drive the ugliest.

You know, Jay Leno’s got the third largest car collection of any individual. The other people are like Arab sheiks. The other two, some guy in Dubai. Yeah. Who just sitting there. Exactly. Like UAE or Dubai or something like that. We got Ron Paul. Let’s be honest about the U.S. department of War. The War Department. That’s from the Free Thought Project. New Apple TV show glorifies liberal women profiling right wingers for the FBI. That’s from Zero Hedge. I saw a little bit about this yesterday and I thought, you know, maybe. Can’t wait to see it. Right. Yeah.

I’ve actually considered maybe I’ll watch part of it to talk about it on the show. But I don’t know how much I’m willing to suffer for this. Yeah, perhaps. Perhaps I’ll watch it and give you guys a review. Like Amazon’s Lord of the Rings is like. I honestly can’t watch too much of this stuff. Yeah, we watched one episode and it was painful. Painful, painful. NATO has outlived its purpose. Jeffrey Sachs for RT. Pentagon’s bloated, opaque and undisciplined budget undermines US national security. That’s from Zero Hedge. German elections thrown into immense chaos. After wave of AfD deaths rises to seven.

That’s from Zero Heads. It’s amazing. Hillary Clinton’s not even running. They got people dying left and right. One person, and it was retweeted by the head of afd, said this is statistically impossible that this many people would die. But yeah, I wouldn’t put it past any government now in the west to do that kind of thing. It’s exactly what you’d expect from the Soviet Union, but that’s what all the Western governments have become. One thing I will say, and I wasn’t able to confirm this, but I heard that the last person to die from AFD was some guy who was, you know, 80 something years old.

So that one is probably more on the natural. But that’s only one out of. Yeah, that’s still six. Yeah, yeah. Labor’s big idea. Die while running for office or because of running for office. It’s the old. With a positive test or because of a positive. Yeah, they die with politics or from politics. Yeah, we’re all dying from politics. Labor’s big idea is ID cards for all. Blair wanted them years ago. And now as Macron demands action, Starmer takes Interest. Good old Keir Starmer. Can’t get enough of that guy. The quiet rebranding of CBDCs as digital ID, that’s from zero Hedge.

As I said, that’s what we’re going to cover in this segment. First, I want to get through your comments here. And we’ve got angry tigers dense as gold will drop down again. You think they don’t pump and dump gold? Especially the ETFs. I read that one. Caboose888. Tony’s Homeland Security agent was messing with the interview. We’ve got Skunk Hollow Rose Garden. Silver is so reasonably priced. That is preposterous. Ridiculous. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They keep suppressing the price of silver. B.L. houghton. Crypto Digital currency is the lead up to taking the mark on the right hand or forehead to buy or sell, pay bills, etc.

Yes, they’ve taken every dystopian thing and implemented it. And that’s especially true of Revelation. But isn’t that an interesting thing? How something was written 2000 years ago by a guy who was on an island, isolated, that he would come up with the same system that the technocrats are coming up with. Of course he told us it was an evil system. They’re trying to tell us it’s for our own good. Safety. Yeah, Madlander. That happened to me. Downloading a Tesla service manual PDF. Yet there’s so many different weird things that pop up when you’re doing anything on the Internet now that it’s so easy to get some website that just starts screaming at you.

Also, PDFs are a major vulnerability. Most viruses these days are spread through PDFs, so be careful when downloading those. Are they? I didn’t know that. Yeah, good to know. Replying to the real Octo spook. Our children and their children will never repay our debts, quote, unquote. Debts. Yeah. Well, maybe we just repudiate it, huh? Dougal says our children have to deal with a B system. I feel sorry for them. Yes, we’ve got DG8. Thank you very much. DG8 says, David, if Trump was on our side instead of arguing with Powell, he would end the Fed. What happened to the audit of Fort Knox? Well, yeah, we talked about.

Yeah, yeah, that’s his hoax. Another Trump hoax. Got DG8 again, thank you very much, David. The Trump family has over 6 billion in crypto holdings. Make them the 8th largest holders in the world. Wow. Yeah, I didn’t know they were number six, but boy, they are really into it and creating more. All the time DG8 once more, thank you very much. David Lutnick and Wilbur Ross were and are Trump’s handlers. What is with the Secretary of Commerce and the real ties to the deep state? Yeah, well, again, that’s where, you know, Secretary of Commerce. That’s where you can do the crony capitalism very easily.

Right. You can reward or punish people in different industries. Got Solo Cat 1980. Tariffs are additional taxes pretending to not be taxes. It’s taxes in a fake mustache and a fake nose. It’s three taxes in a trench coat stacked on top of each other. It’s actually free money. You know, that’s the way they portrayed this. It’s like your prices aren’t going to go up, but we’re going to make hundreds of billions of dollars in extra money. So much so we’re going to send you out another stimulus check. Right. That’s the way it’s been sold by Trump.

Trump is a hoax. The hoax administration. We’ve got Georgia boy 1142. Trump will possibly usher in the biggest surveillance state ever. And his maga. His MAGA will say it’s the best thing that ever happened. That’s right. They can’t wait to get into the Freedom Cities. It’s got freedom in the name. It’s got to be good. Yeah. Christian Constitutional Conservative 2028 will be Trump minion versus Gavin Newsom. That’s right. Gruesome Newsom is going to be running for office another election. I won’t vote in. I have to conscientiously abstain. Yeah, I don’t think I’d make myself sick. Will there even be a lesser of two evils at that point? Shelley A.

Eggs are the same price they were six months ago. They went down for a minute and came back up. Yeah. And you know, the little bit of a drop that was there. Nobody has addressed the monopoly position of Cal, Maine and these other companies that are out there fixing the price of eggs. And the quote unquote fix that was that they came up with what made eggs expensive. Again, it’s the federal government. The federal government is always a problem, not the solution. And so when they stopped the massive cull of chickens, Brooke Rollins came out and approved the genetic code injection for all of our meat.

And the MRNA thing, that’s their quote, unquote solution for all this stuff. Until you do that, or I’ll start killing all your chickens. Yeah. So reminiscent of when the government was paying farmers not to grow corn all those years ago. Now we’ll pay you not to raise Chickens just get rid of the food supply. Yeah. Christian constitutional conservative. We already have digital currency. Who keeps their cash under the mattress anymore? A lot of people solely use their credit or debit card for everything. That’s right. Cash has mostly gone the way of the dinosaur. And that’s why, you know, Kathryn Austin Fitz talks about having a Cash Friday where you deliberately use things on Friday, use cash to pay for things, to try to keep it going.

Because if people stop using cash, then the banks aren’t going to carry it and businesses won’t be able to make change for you because it’s a nuisance for them. And so you have to do that as a customer or it will disappear. We’ve seen that happen in other countries. It’s a slow process of making the other methods far more and more convenient. Also doesn’t help that no one knows how to do math anymore. So anytime you hand someone cash, it takes way longer to get the change back. Yeah. Knights of the storm. The price of eggs are still up because they use tax dollars to bring in more from overseas.

People who don’t eat eggs are subsidizing those who do. Yeah. That’s why, if you can manage it, having your own set of chickens is a great investment. They’re a little bit finicky, a little bit tricky. Keeping them alive and safe from predators is the real struggle because just about anything can kill a chicken if it gets in there. But they are a great investment. They will provide you food with the eggs and then once they’re past their prime, you can turn the chicken itself into meat. Assuming you aren’t too attached to the chicken at that point.

Don’t be Cash Fridays thing, I guess you could say, use the change you want to see in the world. That’s good. Use the change or it will change. Yeah, the real octo spook. When real estate becomes the form of currency, wealth, bank, etc, no, no average American will be able to afford it. Yeah, most average Americans can’t afford real estate at the moment, as is. I mentioned this before, but my wife has looked at, you know, houses and land around where she grew up in Texas, and she’s just come to the conclusion, well, she’ll never be able to afford anything there, ever.

She’s been priced out of where she grew up. If y’ all want to buy a house, you got to do it here in Tennessee. Yeah, that’s right. Texas is too expensive. That’s right. We’ve got real North American house hippo saying talking nights of the storm. I knew we were in trouble when American egg prices exceeded those in Canada, which are kept artificially high by government regulation. Unfortunately, the Canadian government is even more insane generally than the American government. They’re always about 10 to 15 years ahead of America when it comes to left wing policies. So the maid system that’s there in Canada probably be seeing that here within the next 10 to 20 years.

My money would be on sooner than later. Well, we had our own maid system when it came to chickens. We had USDA assisted suicide. And we find, we use our PCR test, which is total garbage, and we get a one positive here on the, on the farm and we’re going to kill, you know, millions of chickens. Every single one has got to go. That just doesn’t make any sense. Even from their virus paradigm. It makes absolutely no sense. If you wanted to have chickens that were immune to it, what you would do is, you know, according to their paradigm, if one chicken had the virus and a bunch of them started dying, the ones that survived would then have an immunity to that virus and that’s how you’d start to build from that.

So it doesn’t even make any sense. If you believe the virology paradigm, which I don’t. But, you know, none of it makes any sense. Yeah, we’re gonna find out that this was an order coming down the pipe from a raccoon somewhere and they snuck all the bodies out. Shelley. A BlackRock was buying mobile home parks and raising the lot rents on fixed income. People who cannot afford $20,000 to move their mobile home. I would never sell my land or home to these monsters. Says I will give the stuff away before selling to them. Americans need to stop being so greedy.

We are doing this to each other. Yeah, it’s. I wish more people had that mentality. But there are some people where BlackRock comes in and they make cash offer over market value and that’s a very hard thing to turn down. Maybe you’ve been struggling, maybe you’re barely making ends meet and this company just comes in and says, hey, I’ll give you several hundred thousand dollars, maybe tens of thousands of dollars more than what your house is worth. And you’ve been desperate. Yeah, it’s hard to say no to that. I get where you’re coming from and I agree personally.

It’s just, I understand how it happened. I understand how people can do it. Nights of the storm. No point in holding paper that devalues daily. Each person has to decide where to store their labor. Yeah, the government can come in and declare gold Illegal. They could potentially do that. But again, that’s what a parallel economy is.4. And if you. Again, we like gold and silver here. If you want to store your value in something else that is completely your choice. I’m not going to put a gun to your head and tell you that you have to buy gold or silver.

And if you think you’ve got a better option, please feel free to let us know. Again, also make sure you have some way of feeding yourself and keeping water because if you don’t have those things, no amount of gold or silver is going to do you any good. You won’t make it that long. So let me plug this real fast. You go to jack lawsonbooks.com you get the civil Defense Manual, you can learn how to protect yourself, your family, your friends, your community, how to get water, how to find food, how to protect yourself in uncertain times.

He’s been all over the world. He’s been involved in a lot of different things, a lot of very dangerous places. And he has got interviews with people that also did the same. Great practical advice from experts, really in their fields. So yeah, it’s an excellent sourcebooks. You need to. Need to be able to depend on yourself and partner depending on yourself is to have the skills that you need or to know the people that have the skills. Because one person can’t do everything. Part of that is community and he focuses on that a lot. You know, the issues that you’re going to run up against when you start to try to create a community, how to do it without attracting the attention of Homeland Security like they have done so many times to people.

Setting them up is exactly what that Apple program is about. You know, you got, you got some leftist woman who’s scouring everything, trying to find, oh, look, this is somebody that we should. Yeah. Call the FBI down on. Of course the bad guys are white men. You know, conservative white men, as always. Yes. And more important than the Civil Defense Manual or gold or silver is a course. Your relationship with Christ. You don’t have that. None of this matters at all. That’s what truly matters in the long run. And have a relationship with him. Because we don’t sell Bibles here.

No, but we will try to sell you Jesus. Actually, it’s free. Yeah, that’s right. Free gift. Let’s talk a little bit about what California is trying to do in terms of getting rid of all cars. And we’ve seen this. It’s been a gradual approach and for the longest time Eric Peters and I have talked about the Fact that they want to get rid of all private cars. They don’t want you to have a private car. We saw how effective that was during the lockdowns. That was your escape hatch, your private car. It is all about freedom.

And these people want to pack us into cities. The urban planners will tell you that cars are the worst invention of mankind. All the rest of us realize that cities are the worst invention of mankind. So in California, they had what was called the Leno law that was put up by a California senator and the state of California had exempted cars that were made before, I think it was 1975 or something. They had exempted them from smog tests. The problem is, is that they never moved it along. So you know, these, when they first did that, those cars were about 30 years old.

So they did it, I think, in 2005 and said, we won’t do smog tests on cars that are 30 years old or not. And so what they did with this, they thought they had a reasonable compromise. They said, well, let’s make it 35 years, but we will. Because now, since they kept that fixed, you’re talking about cars that are over 50 years old or you get a smog test. And so instead of keeping it fixed at 1975, they said, let’s say that in car that is older than 35 years, you don’t have to get a smog test.

And that’s five years older than it was originally. But of course they shut that down. And the person who put this in, state senator said, under the proposal, the deadline for biennial smog testing would have been brought forward to 1990. Anyone who is willing to maintain a 35 year old car is no casual commuter. And their vehicles have long since offset their carbon footprint. In fact, buying a new car to replace these classic cars would arguably be more detrimental to the environment as it would come with a fresh carbon emissions footprint from manufacturing that would take years to offset.

And again, I don’t play this, you know, CO2 game at all. It’s absolute nonsense. But by their own system, just like when we talk about their inconsistent narrative about viruses and virology and things like that. By their own system, you look at an electric vehicle and it arrives with a lot more of a quote unquote carbon footprint than an internal combustion engine. And it takes it a while for it to reclaim that. And so what they’re saying is you’ve got these old cars that are there and if you replace it with something newer, that’s not a gain, but that’s never been the real issue.

They always use the CO2 stuff as a dodge. The reality is that they just don’t want you to have older cars that are not electronic and all the rest of this stuff that are not under their control. And in general they don’t want you to have cars, period. We’ve seen this in the UK where they talk about emission zones and ultra low emission zones. First they began by saying we’re going to give subsidies to hybrid cars and to electric vehicles and we’re going to tax just diesels or maybe diesels and gasoline. Then that changes and eventually what you wind up with is that even the hybrid cars are banned and then they give subsidies or a pass.

You don’t have to pay to get in the city if you got electric vehicle. Now they’re going to start charging the electric vehicles that have no emissions, showing that this was never about the emissions. It’s always been about banning cars. That’s what they’re doing now in the uk they’re now banning the totally electric cars from coming in because they want to shut down all cars. So it’s especially true for them in terms of having 50 year old cars and they’ve got smog tests that they’re using with this. So they said. The senator who put this in Shannon Grove wanted to bring back the rolling deadline of 35 years, which had previously been the law in California said that promoting classic car culture rather than throw away replaceable modern automobiles.

The 1975 date was set in 2005, meaning that when it came into law, the age of vehicle was 30 years. Leno’s Law set a 35 year rolling limit that was arguably tougher than the initial ruling. So again, this is going to stay fixed at 1975 and so it’s going to get to the point where you’re going to have to have a car that is 60 years old or whatever before or you have to take an emissions test. It’s absolutely insane. One of the things that she said in her statement was she said they have shut down what was a much needed update on an antiquated law.

Yeah, the laws are antiquated and they’re banning antiquated cars. It’s antiquated law. Sadly, today California said no to helping preserve these rolling pieces of history and let down classic car clubs across the state. From lowriders to hot rods and every American classic in between. If you’re going to get rid of private automobiles, you got to get rid of the romance of collecting classic cars. Americans have been rightfully so in love with their cars because it was a piece of freedom. That’s why I say when you look at the urban planners, like the CEO of Lyft, that was what his degree was in urban planning, and he absolutely loathed cars because the urban planners would call it sprawl.

People called it being able to escape out of the city. You know, it first began up on Long island, where people wanted to be able to escape the high density in New York City and have a suburban home out on Long island, even if that meant a commute. And they want to shut that down and shut down people’s love affair with the cars. It said every American classic in between hot rods and lowriders. Leno’s Law was not just about cars. It was about the enthusiasts behind the wheel. It was actually about liberty. And freedom is what they’re trying to shut down.

That’s one of the. You know, when Eric Peters talks about it, he talks about mobility and liberty, because you can’t have one without the other, really. And so we get to this Apple TV show headline just also, I think it’s another part of the war on beauty they’re constantly making. Yes. Uglier. Yes. Almost every single classic car is beautiful. Someone cared deeply, and it was engineered not just to, you know, drive, but it was engineered to look good while doing it. Yeah. Just about every single car from before 1970, maybe further forward. But I’m just making a generalization here is something that you would.

You’re excited when you see it on the road. Yeah. No one is going to ever bother fixing up a 2009 Toyota Corolla. It is never going to happen. Well, you know, that was growing up at that time. We would see cars and some of them were comical because they had these really weird idiosyncrasies. But you gotta. And looking back, you gotta say thumbs up for at least giving it a try. You know, hey, that didn’t work. But at least you’re giving it a try and you’re doing something different. And it was great to have all that variety.

And it included not only, you know, fins and chrome and things like that that they would add on, but it would include the kind of car colors that the cars came in. They all came in a wide variety of colors. Now everything is black, white, maybe red. Yeah, that’s right. Once in a while you have a red. Yeah. I mean, they used to be a lot more creative with cars especially. But another part of it is that it’s the interesting and good cars that people Want to preserve like there were good cars in the 90s that people would want to preserve and treat as classic cars and continue keeping them running if they would let them.

Yeah, that’s right. Yeah, it’s the California industry. CARB has put regulations on all kinds of things. I especially saw it like in the Miata market, a lot of big aftermarket that is there. And they would have to, you know, one of the people that was, you know, making accessories and aftermarket add ons and changes for the cars would have to comply with what was going on in California that had such a big market that they’re doing. So the only good news about this is that as California strangles car ownership for the people who live there, they’re going to lose their power over the rest of us.

And so we need to start having some people. There’s an opportunity for you if you want to start a business. You know, start it in Tennessee and then you won’t have to comply with any of these California insane rules resource board things. CARB is what it was, Air resources, I guess, or something. But you had to comply with those rules and you can sell to the other 49 states. The homogeneity of the modern car is absolutely awful too. Everything looks exactly the same. There’s nothing interesting. I don’t even like the look of the new Corvette. It looks cool, but it looks more like a Ferrari than it does a Corvette.

It’s completely lost. What made it. Well, all the. All of the sports cars are starting to look alike, just like all of the SUV started to look alike and you know, and even passenger cars. So there’s this. Everything is just converging into this gray mass where there’s not really anything that’s very distinguishing. But Apple TV is now trying to keep things different here. This is actually. This TV show was based on an article that was in Cosmopolitan. So that could kind of give you an idea of what nonsense it was. Cosmopolitan is rabidly feminist. Back in 2019, a supposedly true story.

Apple liked it so much that they made a series out of it called the Savant. A brilliant liberal white woman operating in the shadows, working for the FBI and using the Internet as a weapon to undermine conservative racists. Because, you know, all conservatives are racist, right? Terrorists and incels that are bent on the destruction of progressive democracy. It’s all a bit laughable, but that’s what they’re putting out and that’s why people are no longer watching what Hollywood produces. Said. Interestingly, the primary example used in that article back in 2019, to showcase the savants talents was the identification of a Muslim terrorist.

Not a right wing terrorist. The man was Michael Fenton, who was arrested in 2009 during a sting in which the feds gave him a fake truck bomb and let him try to blow up a federal building in Illinois. And again, as Judge Napolitano has talked about, this is kind of the way the FBI operates all the time now. Creating a fake situation, trying to get some people to agree with them. They bring the stuff in, they create the plan, they bring in some people that they want to set up and then expose it all and make themselves the heroes.

And we saw this with some of the militia groups in Michigan and so forth. Yeah, this show should be about this evil woman going in and finding some mentally deficient young man to set up for this. That’s. That would be the true story. Yeah, I’d like to see somebody do a true story about the FBI like that. And so this is how these people really operate. You go back and you take a look at Judge Napolitano’s essay they wrote a few years ago, going down one case after the other. They’ve already got several seasons worth of episodes written for them just doing the true story of the FBI setups.

So it suggested that savant is probably more of a profiler. A profiler who identifies people who can be nudged. It is a covert agency term that is often used to describe the tactic of manipulating an easily led person into committing a crime or attack or thinking that they’re going to do it. Then the government destroying the reputation of various groups that the individuals are associated with while conjuring up mass fear and suspicion in the populace and portraying themselves as the hero who’s going to save everybody. Kind of like the fireman who sets fires. Right. Recent example be the FBI attempt to manufacture militia kidnapping plot against Gretchen Whitmer in 2022 that involved more federal informants than actual suspects.

And I’ve had the lady who’s working on a documentary to expose that on several times. Apple TV thought this story was worth a premise for an expensive streaming series. And they’ve been met with resounding ridicule online. The political left is not just out of touch, they’re out of time, says Zero Hedge. Well, I hope that is the case, but we mentioned earlier the Venezuela situation. Yes, yeah, that’s the thing. They aren’t making this for the public, they’re making it for themselves. You know, he’s the one that has all the money from all the real estate Nonsense.

They did back in 2008. They then rolled into Black Rock with extra money from the government as a bailout. And that gives them enough that they can invest in these companies. And they know that these investments are coming because they’re doing all this DEI stuff. And that counteracts the fact that they know these are going to tank. Well, that’s been the way it’s been in Hollywood for a very long time. Back when we were in the video business, it was. And again, take a look at Mel Gibson’s the Passion of the Christ, right? That was the highest grossing R rated film.

And so we would tell them back in the 80s, would say, why don’t you guys do some more G rated films? You know, they make a lot of money for you and for us as well. And they said, no, the guys don’t like that. They don’t even like to make an airplane version of their movie. If anything, they want to go the other direction. We saw them do that. And, you know, I talked to New Lines Cinema’s head of home video at one of the conventions and I said, you know, people are really excited when I tell them that with the DVD technology, they could theoretically be able to get an airplane version that branches around the gratuitous sex and violence if they, if that’s what they don’t like and you could program it for me.

Goes, yeah, but that’s not going to work because that really gets the director’s upset. Shortly after that, they came up with a version that you could either watch as R or as X. Because what they did was they added additional scenes of violence and sex into it. And you could choose to watch that, but you couldn’t choose to go the other direction. And they have always been more interested in impressing their fellow directors and their political movements than they have been in making money. That’s just the way that Hollywood operates. And so it’s always been a club like that.

Yeah, it’s funny to me, I would say that now it’s a lot worse than it has been in the past. And that is largely due to the financial. Well, now you can’t get a movie greenlit unless you throw in LGBT stuff into it. That’s what I’ve been told by people in the film industry. Yeah, they only ever go one way. To them, art is being gratuitous and excessive and gross and violent and depraved. To them, that’s what art is. And if they are not allowed to do that, it’s not art. And it’s just to me, that is cheap.

It is a easy tactic to shock people. It is simply shock value. It’s the same thing to do with comedy, right? You can shock everybody if you talk really dirty, you know. But now, fortunately, we’ve got a few comedians that have come out that are, that are very clean, you know, Christian comedians. I can’t remember that guy’s name. I was seeing him everywhere. But anyway, we’ve got an op ed piece here from Caitlin Johnston talking about what is going on with the Trump administration’s coming war with Venezuela and says the US Empire has sought regime change in Venezuela to control its natural resources for years.

Now. Trump 2.0 is aiming to do just that, she said. In an article titled Inside Trump’s Gunboat Diplomacy with Venezuela Axios Mark Caputo writes the U.S. has never been closer to an armed conflict with Venezuela. A fully loaded US Flotilla floating off of its coast, and dictator Nicolas Maduro living under a 50 million dollar bounty. Looks like they’re going to replay the Panama situation as well. Seven warships carrying 4,500 personnel. Officially, they’re ready to combat drug trafficking. But Press Secretary Caroline Levitt leaned into the ambiguity of the mission on Thursday, noting that the US Considers Maduro the fugitive head of a drug cartel and not Venezuela’s legitimate president.

US personnel reportedly includes some 2200 marines. And so this is what we see all the time, she said. They’re not even disguising the fact that Trump is at least contemplating some kind of direct military strike on Caracas, the capital. Drugs are the official, the official reason for the deployment, but the unofficial official reason is that it’s being freely leaked to the press to remove the leader of a sovereign state. Trump aligned pundits like Alex Jones have been manufacturing consent for regime change intervention in Venezuela, Jones said, I don’t like any of these wars, but if it’s Trump, you can do it right.

You can inject aluminum and mercury into your arm and you can take the sugar water vaccine. Can we have a little bit of an unjust war for Trump’s sake? Sure. Here’s the unjust war for Trump’s sake, he says. But if you look at the US Doctrine and wars that we fought that were right, it’s in Latin America. This is our sandbox, really, is it? Venezuela is a communist dictatorship with the biggest oil reserves per square foot in the world. Their people are absolute slaves. I don’t like regime change, but they’re manipulating our elections. They’re flooding us with fentanyl and if there were surgical Strikes to take out the communists.

That’d be an uprising and they would have elections and it would be a good thing. So there we go. We’re going to save them. So this is his definition of a just war. It is a war that’s fought in Latin America. Those are the wars that we thought were we were, right? So therefore. Yeah, yeah, the wars that we won. That’s the definition of a just war for Alex. Also just. They’re manipulating our elections. Did you guys know it’s Venezuela that manipulates our elections? It’s Venezuela that’s in control of everything here, guys. Fun fact. Well, Smartmatic has moved outside of Venezuela now and it’s headquartered in the US Whenever the US War machine.

This is Caitlin Johnstone. Now whenever US War machine moves its crosshairs to a different target, I always get people telling me, no, no, Caitlin, this time the evil bad guy really does need to be regime changed. This time our government and the media are telling us the truth. Or Alex would not tell you the truth ever. But anyway, it’s always so stupid. She said, because it’s just the same rehashed lies over and over again. They’ll say that they’re doing it for humanitarian reasons while ignoring the humanitarian abuses of empire lined nations. They’ll say they’re doing it to stop drug abuse while ignoring all the evidence regarding the actual cases of drug abuse.

Even as Maduro sends 15,000 troops to the Colombian border to help fight drug trafficking. Well, it’s not even about that. If Alex wants to shut down drug abuse, he ought to call in a strike on the CIA headquarters because they’re the ones that started this drug war, that maintained this drug war. Alex knows full well because he has interviewed people like Ricky Ross, talked about the fact that to have their dirty little war in Latin America, they created crack cocaine epidemic in the United States. You know, we are the bad guys when it comes to the drug wars.

And quite frankly, if you go back to Panama, most people say that George H.W. bush was working with Noriega, running drugs and everything. And then they decided that they wanted to push this guy out because this is just basically the kind of competition that you get with organized crime. And that’s what we’re talking about here. We got a big thunderstorm. I wonder if that was audible. She says they’ll say that they’re doing it to stop interference in U.S. affairs while letting U.S. aligned nations like Israel interfere with U.S. politics at will. Exactly. They’re just lying. The U.S.

empire lies about all of its acts of War. Trump tried to orchestrate a regime change in Venezuela last time he was in office. He’s doing it again for exactly the same reasons, because it’s an oil rich nation that refuses to bow to the dictates of Washington. Just like Iran, by the way. Right. We engineered regime change in Iran, which is why the Ayatollah is there. The person that we handed the country over to was an authoritarian dictator, the Shah. And it all blew back. You had the CIA training him with massive repressive techniques of suppressing, violently suppressing, arresting, torturing any dissidents that were there.

And that’s what gave us the Ayatollah in Iran. So, yeah, Alex, good job there. Yeah, we have a great history with the people we put in power. After we overthrow the countries. It’s never once come back to bite us. Yeah. She said we’re just trying to get control of Venezuela. That’s the only thing that’s happening here. Anybody who says otherwise is lying. And again, when all else fails, they take you to war. Jeffrey Sachs said NATO has outlived its purpose, and he’s absolutely right. NATO was a treaty to defend against the Soviet Union, which doesn’t exist.

So in this sense, NATO definitely outlived its role. It became instead a mechanism of US Power expansion, which is not what NATO should be. In other words, we’re not about defense anymore. We’re not about national security or defense. We’re about war. And so from that standpoint, it is good for Trump to change the name back to what it really should be. NATO’s eastward expansion since 1990 has been wholly unjustified and contrary to Western promises, said Sachs, referring to the assurances given by U.S. officials after the dissolution of the USSR that the bloc would not move closer to Russia’s borders.

Sachs stressed that the organization’s enlargement has had no legitimate security rationale and instead deepened divisions on the European continent. This is all for war. There’s no peace. There’s no security in this national security state. And that’s. He’s exactly right. We should get rid of NATO. And remember that hoax where Trump said, I’m going to get out of NATO if they don’t put more money into weapons. And that was strictly there to sell them more weapons, to get them to build up for the purposes that Obama had already started this. He had already started moving things in that direction and moving with the coup.

And Trump just wanted to get people to arm up so they could be a part of this Ukrainian war. I don’t think there’s going to be any peace there at all. The German elections thrown into immense chaos after a wave of seven deaths in the AfD party. And we look at how despised the AfD party is in Germany, there is reason to question this. Not only is it because some people don’t buy the coincidence theory, they think it’s more of a conspiracy theory, but also because they have done everything short of just a blanket making it illegal.

They have surveilled members, they’ve taken away their rights to own guns along with other things, because you can still, if you apply, get guns to go hunting in Germany. But they have attacked people in the AfD on many different areas, accused them falsely of being terrorists and that type of thing. So this is now several different candidates. As you point out, the last one to die was 80 years old and died of natural causes. But there’s no cause of death disclosed for four other candidates in the region that has a population of 18 million people. The AfD co leader, Alice Weidel reposted a claim by retired economist Stefan Hamburg that the number of candidates deaths was, quote, statistically almost impossible.

So again we have to ask, is this like a Hillary side that is happening there? Labor’s big idea is to have ID cards. So the big idea is id. It’s funny how that seems to be the idea everywhere in the world. No matter what problem you’re facing, it’s have you tried ID cards? Well, what I thought was interesting about this, since most of us do not live in the UK, was the fact that the rationale that’s being put out by Keir Starma, the socialist labor leader in the UK for ID is exactly the same rationale that’s been put out by the GOP here in the United States, in Florida.

You know, Desantis. Yeah. We’re going to talk about something good that Desantis and Latipo did in a moment here. But when you look at what they did in terms of making E Verify, which has been around for a very long time, they wanted to make it now mandatory. It’s always been voluntary. They wanted to make it mandatory. And their rationale for doing it was they had to make sure that illegal immigrants were not getting jobs here. And that is the same rationale that is being pushed by Keir Starmer’s Labour Party. Do you find it interesting as I do, when you see different countries, you have a Conservative and you have in the US and you’ve got a radical labor socialist in the UK and they’re both pushing for a technocrat agenda.

That’s what we’re seeing here. So 15 years after the idea was abandoned following an outcry about the impact on civil liberties. And that’s kind of what we had with Real id. Right at the time, you know, Tony Blair and George W. Bush were pushing ID here. It was called Real id. Everybody pushed back against that and they’ve decided that people have kind of grown accustomed to this, that they’ve moved the Overton window and now they can complete this task. That’s what both sides are doing. This is globally, what we’re seeing here. Under one option, anybody applying for a new job would be required to produce their digital ID to demonstrate that they have the right to live and work in the uk.

And here we do that with mandatory E Verify. And it’s all going to be done. Because of the open borders issues, labor ruled out ID cards as recently as July. But Sir Keir Starmer has been told by Macron to address the pull factors that are attracting migrants to Britain in return for French help in stopping the boats. So, hey, look, I will help you stop the invasion of illegal immigrants if you’ll help me impose digital IDs on people. That’s what this is all about. You know, created problem and then they come in with solution that they wanted all along, which is not really a solution at all.

Also just, we have to stop the boats. So therefore you have to have an id. And I don’t think that’s going to physically stop any of these boats. And they could physically stop the boats if they had any will to do so. That’s right. He’s not going to even. He doesn’t have the will to even help them, though, if he doesn’t do this. So they said this was originally Tony Blair and he’s continued to push behind the scenes for this in all the different years since he’s left. Keir Starmer is coming under intense pressure to be seen to be acting on illegal immigration.

He’s now done a U turn on the digital IDs. They said this has always kind of been on the radar. Question about civil liberties fight that ended the last bid. The spokesman for the government in the UK said ministers believed the debate had changed since the last time we had this discussion. People are now more relaxed about the idea of having to prove their identity online. See, they just are relentless with this. And of course, all the lockdown garbage with the nonsense pandemic was to prepare people for this exact same thing. We said that along. And so I want to take a quick break and well, actually we’re not going to take a break.

Let’s just jump over to the pharmaceutical stuff because I do want to talk about what is happening in Florida. I think it is a very positive thing. I’m not happy about the mandatory. You verify that Desantis has done there and I don’t sign on to his censorship for the state of Israel stuff either. But this is something that Latipo, his surgeon general has pushed in and that is to say that they are going to remove the mandates for vaccines. And we’re not talking about the COVID vaccines here, we’re talking about. Because they’ve already removed those. They said they’re not going to mandate them, they’re not going to recommend them.

Unfortunately, they stopped short of banning them, which really is what needs to be done. We know it’s a bioweapon and Latipo said we’re not going to recommend them or have them out because we know that they’re dangerous. But they’re not going to ban this dangerous genetic code injection. But here what they’re doing is this is going to have big repercussions because we talked about this in the past, how it’s the coordinated effort by insurance companies to push pediatricians and say if you don’t get a certain percentage of your patients, your child patients vaccinated with these on schedule, then we are going to cut your insurance rate so much that you’ll be out of business, which they do.

They cut the agreed upon fees that they’re going to pay them for the various procedures. They cut them by a large percentage because they don’t have their population vaccinated. So this is pretty big. If they’re going to go against them in one state, maybe other states will jump in on this. For decades, Florida has required numerous vaccines for kids attending school, as all schools do. A list that today includes shots that protect against measles, mumps, rubella, polio, chickenpox, hepatitis B and so forth. But Latapo rather compared these mandates to slavery and he promised that they will all end soon.

He said all of them, Every last one of them. Who am I as a man standing here now to tell you what you should put in your body? I agree with him absolutely. Again, he stopped short of where I would like for him to ultimately go, but he is pushing it in that direction. This is a positive thing. A pediatrician replied said during the ending, the vaccine mandates for school children will endanger their health and bring back diseases with life threatening health complications. They want to say that about measles. And that is absolutely a lie. I grew up at a time when there wasn’t even a measles vaccine.

And it was not a life threatening thing. Everybody knew that it was not a life threatening thing. Certainly anything can happen with any disease. And you can die in a car accident, right? But it doesn’t mean that your car is inherently unsafe just because you could die in a car accident. Measles. It was very, very rare to hear of anybody who had to be hospitalized or who died. It was so rare. That wasn’t an issue. And so for the people say, well, everybody’s going to die now if this doesn’t happen. And that’s going to be the tact that they’re going to take as they bring RFK Jr into some congressional hearings this coming weeks.

They’re going to try to harangue him after some things have been done. How dare you. You’ve undermined confidence in the system. Yes, yes. Now, again, this is tied to school attendance. All 50 states in Washington, D.C. florida is the first state to publicly call for doing away with such requirements. It is going to be a real storm that these guys are going to have to fight just to make this little bit of a move. And it’s going to be the insurance industry, it’s going to be the pharmaceutical industry, it’s going to be the medical industry, it’s going to be the schools are all going to fight them on this.

So good kudos for them for taking this on. Removing the vaccine requirements entirely would require the legislature sign off, but Desantis and Latapo can make some changes without needing to pass a bill. State statute says that immunization shall be required for polio, diphtheria, rubella, pertussis, mumps and tetanus. The law also allows the Department of Health to set rules requiring vaccines for other diseases. Department rules require children to get four vaccines beyond what’s required in state law. They named those. But as part of the rule change, they said the department can also seek to expand vaccine exemptions.

So even though the law says that they can put in vaccine exemptions, parents can already exempt their children from vaccines on religious grounds on allowance that the health experts have criticized in the past, they said. The department plans, however, to broaden the exemption to allow people to cite personally held beliefs as a reason for not getting their child vaccinated. And I think after what we have seen with this other stuff, they might be able to win this fight. Especially in Florida. They got a large conservative constituency there. Yeah. He said they’re going to put in a big medical freedom package for lawmakers to vote on.

And I think there’s enough grassroots activism against vaccines in Florida to they could actually do this. This could be a real positive beginning. It’s a small start. Let’s be optimistic about this. And you might want to pray for that as well. It’s a very important thing. This has been such a horrible thing that they have shoved down people, so it’s actually shoved into their arms. Well, that’s all the time we have for today. Thank you so much for joining us. Have a good 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@thedavidknightshow.com thank you for listening. Thank you for sharing.
