Speaker 1 (00:29):
In a world of deceit, telling the truth is a
revolutionary act.

Speaker 2 (00:36):
It's the David Knight Show. As the clock strikes thirteen,
it's thirsty. The eighteenth of December, he're of our lord,
twenty twenty five. Today may be the day that war

(00:56):
kicks off in Venezuela. Of course, Congress is finally getting
around to talking about it, but only three Republicans even
want to talk about it. The rest of them would
rather go to war with Venezuela than go to war
with Trump. And he's finally telling us the truth about
what the war is about. They have put a total

(01:18):
block eighty said, and as of last night they announced,
and I believe it had started this morning. The Venezuelan
Navy is escorting these tankers. So we'll see what happens.
But at least Trump is finally telling us the truth,
still telling us lies about it, telling us the truth
that it's a war of colonialism. And then, of course

(01:40):
you have Homeland Security that decided in laterally that they're
going to start taking DNA from all visitors from friendly
countries and allies. If you want to come here as
a tourist. Five years of social media and DNA and
who decided this? Did Congress know is decided by the bureaucracy.

(02:01):
We'll be right back. Well, let's begin with the stupid wars,
because they are stupid, and as I mentioned here at
the beginning, we have total blockade. But the House is

(02:23):
going to vote this week on a bill to block
Trump from launching a war with Venezuela day eight dollars short, perhaps,
but they may do it today. They may not do
it today. Maybe they'll do it after it's already started.
The House could vote as soon as Thursday on a
bipartisan war powers resolution aimed at blocking Trump from launching

(02:45):
an attack on Venezuela, met a major US military build
up in the Caribbean and thought and threats of regime
change of Austin Maduro. The bill is introduced by a Democrat,
has thirty one co sponsors, including three Republicans, Thomas Massey,
Marjorie Taylor Green, and Don Bacon, all of whom, well,

(03:08):
Massey is running again, but you know he's got the
zionist billionaires who want to get him out as well
as Trump. But the other two have said, bora, we're
not going to have that fight. And most of The
GOP would rather go to war with anyone and kill
anyone rather than go to war with Trump, because they're
all about themselves. They don't care about anybody else. They

(03:30):
don't care about the Constitution. He's wore up Uldu. They're despicable.
The Constitution does not permit the executive branch to unilaterally
commit an act of war against the sovereign nation that
hasn't attacked the US, said Thomas Massey in a statement
when the bill was introduced. Congress has the sole power
to declare war against Venezuela, and Congress must decide such

(03:52):
matters according to our Constitution. Well, clearly Trump knows when
this vote is going to come up, because he's got
his little weasel, Mike Johnson, who's basically scheduling and controlling
that stuff. So maybe that has something to do with
the timing of the total blockade that is there. This
is go ahead, knock that chip off of my shoulder

(04:12):
type of thing. Another War Powers resolution that was introduced
in the House by Representative Gregory Meeks, Democrat New York
aims to stop Trump's bombing campaign against alleged drug boats
in Latin America, and that was expected to be brought
to a vote yesterday. I didn't see whether that happened

(04:33):
or not. But it also had thirty one co sponsors,
but not a single Republican, not Massy, not Marjorie Taylor Green.
Why is that? To me? That is as outrageous. That
is an act of war. There is a war crime
the way they have conducted it. Something needs to be

(04:54):
done about that. Meanwhile, Julian Assange has filed a criminal
complaint in Sweden, where the Nobel Foundation is headquartered, and
he accuses the Nobel Foundation the people give out the
Nobel Peace Prize, accuse them of misusing the peace prize

(05:15):
funds by awarding them to Venezuelan opposition figure Maria Carina Machado,
who is publicly called on the US to attack her
own country. Yeah, she's the one that gave the peace
prize to. And when you look at this, it's like
as absurd as it seems that Trump thinks that he
deserves a Nobel Peace Prize. Perhaps this is why, Hey,

(05:38):
if Maria can get one, I guess I should be
able to get one. She's calling for war against her
own country. The complaint dated on Wednesday and submitted to
Sweden's Economic Crime Authority and War Crimes Unit, where the
Nobel Foundation is based, argues that Alfred Nobel's will legally
restricts the Peace Prize funds to purpose is that promote

(06:00):
peace and bars their use to advance war or foreign
military intervention. And he is spot on because it's her
party and the people affiliated with her that Trump is
trying to install there and giving her a Nobel Peace
Prize is a pr move that is being done by

(06:21):
this committee diverse. Disbursing prize money to Machado violates the
mandate and could constitute a crime under Swedish law, Assange says,
while warning that the Nobel Peace Prize could be used
as an instrument of war. Interesting because it exists because
offered Nobel created dynamite, and then when he saw how

(06:46):
it was being used in war, he took the money
that he made from it and set up this peace prize. Yes,
and now we come full circle again. Now they're using
it to create war. The complaint sites a series of
public sayments in which Machado endorsed potential US military intervention
in Venezuela while defending Washington's use of force amid its

(07:08):
heavy military build up in the Caribbean. Assane pointed out
that she had that she had justified US strikes on
boats off of Venezuela's coasts, which have killed ninety five
people to date. The US maintains that it is targeting
Narco terrace, while the UN has condemned the strikes as
extra judicial killings, and that's what they are. But now

(07:32):
Trump is telling us the truth about the purpose of this,
as we'll get to in a second. Here, Trump boasted
that Venezuela surrounded by the largest armada ever assembled in
the history of South America, while promising to tighten the
screws on Caracas until they quote return all of the oil,
the land, and other assets that they previously stole from us.

(07:55):
Now he's starting to get to the truth of the matter.
It's about oil always, and you know it's about regime change.
But the regime change is the penultimate cause of this.
Oil is the primary cause of it, as it is
over and over again with our wars Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan

(08:16):
and things like that. In Afghanistan, I think they're really
there there after the opium and the lithium, But you
just have to ask the Cia while we're having these
wars because they're the ones that are starting it right,
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei lavrav said, the US actions off
of Venezuela's coast undermine hopes that an agreement can be
reached with Washington. How can we deal with these pirates here?

(08:39):
It's kind of interesting. We had that young woman who
has been the pr point for the European Union and
pushing war, and she said, we can't trust Russia. In
the last one hundred years, they have started nineteen wars. Really,
I don't remember that I looked it up. I mean,

(09:01):
you count them up best. I can come up with
this ten to fourteen, depending on how you break these
actions down. I mean, they've had some actions they count
if you count World War Two. In the last one
hundred years, everybody was going to war with everybody else.
And at the beginning of that Russia was allied with Germany,
so you could say that they were the aggressors in
that war. But then there were the situations where they

(09:24):
invaded Hungary, Czechoslovakia, Georgia, Chechen things that were in their sphere.
You know, like, we say we can do that. Trump
says we can do that in South America. They were
also in Afghanistan and Syria. We also in Afghanistan and
Syria and Iraq. We can throw that in there as well.

(09:44):
So how do we measure up with all this stuff?
You know, we've also been in Grenada, in Cuba and Venezuela,
We've attacked them and so forth. I mean, we've got
a much longer list. Panama could just keep going. Who's
the threat here? Yeah, who's the domino theory applied to?
I mean, we're like the ones who set up the

(10:05):
dominoes and we're knocked them down, you know, everywhere I look,
that's what I see. So anyway, Trump has declared a
total and complete blockade of sanctioned oil tankers in and
out of Venezuela, and as of last night, Venezuela was
saying that they were going to escort it with naval vessels,
and there's a lot of news articles about that that

(10:27):
came out just this morning, may kickoff today. Trump on
Tuesday said a total and complete blockade of all sanctioned
oil tankers. Venezuela is completely surrounded by the largest armada
ever assembled in the history of South America's I just quoted,
and it'll only get bigger, and the shock to them
will be like nothing they've ever seen before. I'm just

(10:50):
sick and tired of these war sellers, these warmongers boasting
about their power. I don't want to see a bunch
of Americans get killed, but I'm just sick and tired
of the American military and the Pentagon makes me want
to throw up. I despise them, just like I despise
Israeli government. The president, and the blockade, an action that's

(11:15):
generally considered an act of war under international law, would
continue until Venezuela quote returns our oil. Think about that.
Of course, he only said the same thing Siria said,
you take the oil? What claim do we have in
Syria for oil? And of course they're still there, and
of course they still had, you know, just had in

(11:36):
the last couple of days three Americans killed there, and
the Pentagon says they're not going to change anything about
their policies there in Syria. They don't care. It doesn't
matter to them. Law, morality, the death of their own troops,
none of that matters to these people. It's just amazing.
So finally Trump is telling the truth, even if it's

(12:00):
ugly and of course, especially the way he puts it here,
the president appears to be referring to the nationalization of
all projects under Hugo Chavez, who forced foreign run companies
to be converted into joint ventures in which Venezuela's state
oil company held a majority state. Isn't that what Trump

(12:21):
is doing with TikTok? Same thing? And Maduro might want
to take a look at what we did to another
country that did that, Iran. Most of day was elected,
he wanted to do the same thing that Hugo Chavez did,

(12:45):
so there was the CIA coup against him. They put
in the shaw of Iran. They trained his secret police
to brutally repress the people that are there. That's the pattern.
Western wall companies accepted Chavez his terms, including Chevron, which
continues to operate in Venezuela today, while others rejected the

(13:07):
deal out of hand, most notably Exxon Mobile. They exited
the country. They sued the Venezuelan government and international arbitration
over the expropriations, but the oil remains the property of
the Venezuelan state and is unclear what Trump means when
he claims that Venezuelan land was stolen from the US. Again,

(13:29):
what claim do we have over Syrian oil? And why
are we there? Trump also claimed that Maduro's government was
a foreign terrorist organization, referring to his administration as we
heard this over and over again, the non existent cartel
the Sons. Now, this article from Anti Walla's the first
time I have seen this. I said, the term cartel

(13:50):
the Sons was first to use in the early nineteen
nineties to describe some Venezuelan generals who had sun and
insignias on their uniforms. Why because they were involved in
cocaine trafficking, not VENTONYL Ventnol didn't even exist then, in
cocaine trafficking, and they were actually working with the CIA

(14:14):
at the time. If you want to shut down the
world's worst drug cartel, shut down the CIA. They're the
ones who are the worst, the most powerful of all
these cartels. They are worst. They're worse than the Sinaloa cartel,
l Chopping and the rest of them. But they just

(14:35):
keep going and going, unlimited amounts of money, and the murders,
the assassinations, the coups, the wars that they start everywhere,
just disgusting or discuss me. The US War Department says, now,
no force posture changes. That's the way they put it.
They're not going to make any adjustments here because we

(14:57):
had some Americans killed in Syria doing things which we
have no legal right to be doing, no justification. It's
nothing but piracy. But we got a thousand US troops
in Syria? Why are they there? I'm going to ask yourself.
I mean, didn't we have this discussion under Obama? And

(15:21):
under Obama he kept itching to put US boots on
the ground. And I don't know if he did it
or Trump did it, or Biden did it. They didn't
tell us even when they did it. They did it.
They helped to establish and put in charge of Syria
ISIS and the people that we were fighting in Afghanistan,
and then we put them in charge of Syria. Why

(15:44):
because of oil and because of geopolitical competition with Russia.
As Henry Kissinger said, we have no permanent allies. We
have permanent interests, and those are interests. And so we
will fight al Qaeda in Afghanistan in a rock and
say that's what we're doing there, and then we will
put al Qaeda and isis in charge in Syria. It's

(16:06):
always about the oil. It's always about the big corporations.
It's just never changes, never changes. And so Haig Seth says,
in terms of the video of the strike, the second
strike on the drug boat survivors, of course I'm not
going to release the full video. We knew that as well.

(16:31):
The one video that you're not going to see. They
will put out video of every single strike against boats.
They're not in conflict with them, they're not fighting them,
they aren't shooting back or shooting at them, and that
they have not verified have drugs. They will put every
single one of those videos up. They will put up
videos of them and their piracy taking a tanker with

(16:56):
one to two million gallons of oil, barrels of oil.
I'm sorry, barrels. I think a barrel is like fifty
gallons or something. But they will put those videos out.
That's the only video they won't put out. And I
guarantee you that if this thing turns into a shooting war,
they're going to put out tons and tons of video,

(17:16):
but they're not going to put out video of their
clear war crimes. I say the whole thing is a
war crime, and I've said that from the very beginning,
but this one is something that even people who want
to support their action have a real issue trying to
explain that away. So of course he's not going to
put it out. We all know that they're going to

(17:37):
read it. It's top secret, top secret. Cannot see that.
And I said for the longest time that classification things
are done more to protect them than to protect the nation,
And the whole idea of national security is really to
protect them and not the nation, especially when you look

(18:01):
at the fact that our government by becoming the policeman
of the world. This all happened under Truman. Truman creates
the CIA, he creates the NSA, he creates a national
security state, He turns the military into the world's policeman.
All that stuff goes together, and now we look at
NATO and look at Mark Ruta, the guy who tried
to destroy all of the farms, the small farms in

(18:24):
the Netherlands, the most productive farms in the world, and
he wanted to put them out of business, criminalizing fertilizer
of all things. Because he's got a system set up
with Picnic and family members that are partnering with Bill gates.
They want to manufacture the food and deliver the food,
and they don't want any competition from farmers. So the

(18:47):
people in the Netherlands woke up to what was going on.
Some of the things are starting to happen now in
France as well. They're going around in France with this
mass culling program that is happening there, just like they
did with chickens here in this country. We're going to
do a PCR test and oh, we've got one positive
here for some disease that we claim we're looking for,

(19:09):
so we're gonna have to kill your entire herd of cattle.
It's like going to kill a million chickens because we
got one positive PCR test. It's absurd. But rather than
roll over and die for the government, like the poultry
farms dead here and again, most of it was being
done with the cooperation of the really big egg farms

(19:34):
because it worked out for them. They made a lot
more money if they reduced the number of eggs. But
they're in France. The farmers are pushing back and the
veterinarians that are going in there and doing the tests
have to have armored cars and military aid because they're
ready to fight. These people want to starve us, they

(20:00):
want to kill us in war, because that's what Mark
Ruda is doing. After trying to destroy the farms and
the Netherlands, the people kicked him out. So where'd you go?
He went to NATO and he's now saying that Trump
has been very good for NATO. And I said this
myself when he was in his first term. I said,
he's not going to get out of NATO. What he's

(20:22):
doing is he's threatening to do that as a prod
to get the NATO countries as a reason for them
to go to the people in their country and say, hey,
we're going to have to up our defense spending because
it's going to be on us. Trump was there as
a prod to get them to up their defense spending

(20:43):
because they all knew that the Ukraine War was going
to be happening. I mean, if Alexey Restovich and Ukraine
knew that, of course they knew it too. There's an
open secret for everybody on both sides of this. Russia
as well even knew exactly when going to attend. So
as I said, you know, so many times you see
Trump positions himself out there as a foil against the

(21:08):
globalist when in reality he's doing their work for them.
He did it at NATO, he did it with the lockdowns,
leading the lockdowns and developing the poison mRNA for everybody.
He is a manchurion candidate of the globalist and the technocrats.

(21:29):
He's the guy that is pratting around telling you how
he opposes them, how he hates him. He's opposed to
the CIA right, the deep state. And then what does
he do, And he's opposed to George Bush's Iraq war
based on lies about weapons and master destruction. What does
he do? He takes the person Gena Haspell, who sold

(21:51):
those lies, who produced those lies about weapons of mass
destruction by torturing people, and there were lies. She's the
one who did the torture, who covered up the torture,
who gave them the lies, and he puts her in
charge of CIA his entire first term because Pompeo was
a figurehead. She was a number two there until they

(22:12):
just said, we don't need a disguise anymore. We'll just
make her number one. Over and over again. He talks
about these issues from the perspective of people who love
this country and loved the Constitution, and yet he does
just the opposite. He does what is in the interest

(22:35):
of NATO and the UN. Well, let's talk about the
other stupid war, and that is Ukraine before we take
a break. Here John Mehersheimer Meerscheimer is talking about why
diplomacy is going nowhere in the Ukraine Russian War, and
as a consequence, he says Ukraine is doomed. And he's

(22:57):
absolutely right. And I've said this before. I said, Alexey
Arrostovich a guy who basically doesn't really have a filter.
He just tells you the way it is, you know.
And he said, now is the time that we need
to try to arrange to have peace on some terms
so we can preserve Ukraine as a country instead of
being a region of Russia as it has been for

(23:19):
four hundred years. With Silenski having much belatedly dropped aspirations
for Ukraine's NATO membership, European officials are now openly admitting
that what pretty much everyone knew but was afraid to say.
The U High Representative acknowledged in fresh remarks that Ukraine's
membership in NATO is quote out of the question. However,

(23:43):
said at the same time, the European Union now needs
to provide concrete security guarantees. So the reality is that I say,
all right, you're not going to be a NATO, we're
not going to give you formal status, but we're still
going to have the essence of what NATO was about,
the Article five protections to say that if you were attacked,
we view that as an attack on all of us.

(24:06):
And so they use them as a cat's pause, a provocation,
and then if they are attacked, that's their excuse to
go to war with Russia. That's what this is all about.
You know. The whole purpose of NATO was as a
mutual defense agreement the way it was sold everybody, and
it is a trip wire to draw us into wars.

(24:27):
If this Ukraine NATO membership is not in question, if
this is out of the question, then we need to
see what the security guarantees are that are tangible. They
can't be just papers or promises. They have to be
real troops and real capabilities. So they're reactivating the draft
in several European countries and they're spending inordinate amounts of

(24:48):
money on weapons of war to destroy their countries and
other countries. It's absolutely insane. The world is going crazy.
So this is Kaja Kallis, and you've seen her, you know,
she's like thirty something and she has been their spokesperson

(25:10):
for war. She's the one who said, in the last
one hundred years, Russia has attacked at least nineteen countries.
As I said before and again I look that up
and it's like, okay, you know, there's the countries of
World War Two, and then there's things under the Soviet
Union when there were the uprisings in Hungary and Czechoslovakia

(25:31):
and then later on uprisings in Georgia. But the only
count that I could come up with was ten to fourteen.
But she says nineteen. You know, you can also throw
in Afghanistan in Syria, but we were there as well,
and we had no reason to be there either. Plus
we can also throw it on our side Iraq, Panama, Cuba, Vietnam, Venezuela, Grenada, Libya, Somalia, Yemen.

(25:56):
We have done this year. I think something bombing runs
in Somalia. Why is that? Who talks about that? Nobody cares.
So Europe is still going to propose some scheme such
as Article five security guarantees, things just short of formal

(26:17):
NATO membership. But the Russian leaders are going to see
this for what it is a recipe for future war
euros is Chicago professor John Meerscheimer. So there's virtually no
reason to think that a peace agreement can be stuck
to struck rather to end the war, despite all the
diplomatic maneuvering that has been taking place in recent months.

(26:39):
For sure, diplomacy is a good thing and principle, but
in practice in this case, it's going nowhere. Russian demands
are completely at odds with Ukrainian and European demands. Neither
side is willing to budge an inch. Moreover, many seem
to think that the proposal of the Trump administration is
pushing is a joint US Russia plan, one that both

(27:01):
Moscow and Washington support, when in fact, there is no
evidence that the Russians have accepted Trump's twenty seven point plan.
And you know, when we look at this, Lindsey Graham
has admitted repeatedly before and throughout this war that the

(27:21):
purpose is to go after Russia. Well, I think this
is working really good. I think how many Russians we killed,
how much of the equipment we've taken out. This is
exactly what we wanted, you know, before the war. It's like, well,
next year we're going to go act Putin. He's telling
the people in Ukraine what were they doing that year? Well,
that year they were going after Ukrainians. The Ukrainian army

(27:42):
was attacking other Ukrainians because the government that we put in. Indeed,
the proposal is unacceptable to the Russians, as they made
clear on December. The fourth Diplomacy will not only become relative,
will only become relevant when there is a major development
on the battlefield that tells both sides that it's time
to negotiate an armistice, turning the hot war into a

(28:05):
frozen conflict. And I don't think that that's going to
happen if Selensky's not gone. And of course the US
under Trump is pushing for elections there. Urte's take on
it is that Zelensky is stealing the election before it's
even been announced. His preconditions make a mockery of it.

(28:28):
They said, first of all, Ukrainians have a right to
finally be released from their perverse bondage to what is
in effect a long ago failed Western proxy war against Russia,
just as I said, Lindsey Graham has admitted that over
and over again. He doesn't even have any shame about that.
The former Biden administration policy official Amanda Sloat has casually

(28:51):
admitted that much now as well. Why then did the US,
Why then did the West want war in order to
diminish Russia by using the Ukraine as a battering ram
and Ukrainians as cannon fodder, and everybody except the military
industrial complex the warmongers have said this from the very beginning,

(29:12):
and many of the warmongers, like Lindsey Graham has said
it from the very beginning as well. No peace will
last without an end to Ukraine's ultra corrupt current authoritarian regime.
And you talk about defending democracy in Ukraine as absurd
under Zelenski, there is no such thing left Now Even

(29:32):
some Western mainstream commentators are starting to admit Zelensky's authoritarianism.
Yet the former entertainment producer and vulgar comedian stated systematically, rather,
it started systematically undermining what little democracy that Ukraine used
to have well before the election of February twenty twenty two,

(29:53):
as Ukrainian observers and critics at the time widely discussed
and deplored after their political institutions, their religious institutions, you
name it, and even Bill Gates said it was the
most corrupt country on Earth and had been for a
long time. Zelensky's regime is so corrupt that he has

(30:14):
sold out its own people so badly to the West
that a lasting peace threatens, not only with them losing power,
which they certainly would, but also with a wave of
prosecutions starting with Selensky himself and rolling down like an avalanche.
Put differently, this is a regime that would always be

(30:36):
tempted to restart the war in order to distract from
the retribution that it fears. This is why Trump is
right to call for presidential elections in Ukraine. Zelensky has
extended his mandate on flimsy grounds and usurped power even formally.
In reality, the Ukrainian constitution does not prohibit elections, as

(30:59):
he's been saying. It only prohibits parliamentary elections. They can
still have an election for president, So even the election
for the presiden's eas he's putting it out there, is
already rigged to fail. They are planning to shift the
whole presidential election online so they can rig it. It's

(31:22):
kind of what happened with Trump. Remember when he when
he shut down the country and we had to do
a vote by mail election. I was saying that all
through the summer, said, if you're going to do that,
we know how that's going to be rigged. That's why,
to me, the whole election stolen thing never even passed

(31:43):
the sniff test. I believed, and I said it then
that I think this was the whole thing, the lockdown election,
the vote by mail stuff, that was all done to
hand over power to Biden deliberately because they want to
have this plausibility. They don't want to have a situation
where does both the vaccine and the mandates. Let's split
this so that one group can get upset about the vaccines,

(32:08):
but then hold Trump harmless and say, yeah, but you know,
Biden made us take that poison that Trump made us
pay for and gave billions, hundreds of billions of dollars
to these criminals, the pharmaceutical people. So meanwhile, Slunsky and
NATO are playing a very dangerous game of brinksmanship. They're

(32:29):
very excited about the fact that they were just able
to sink a Russian submarine that was at dock using
a sea drone and put it out of action. And
this is a sea drone rather than an aerial drone.
We've seen a similar situation done with very expensive I

(32:49):
think they're bombers, weren't they. It's like five or six
bombers or something that were parked on an airfield and
they took them out with an aerial drone attack. I
want to put that out there as if this is
evidence that they can win the war. This is not
the battlefield, folks, This is sabotage. Sabotage is like espionage, right,

(33:13):
you go around, you sneak around, and you blow something up.
That's what this is like. I mean they just the
fact that it was delivered by drone, ariel or sea
drone doesn't change the fact this was not done in
a battle. It's sabotage. And you're not going to be
able to win the war if you can't win any battles.
Sabotage isn't going to do it alone. Well, that's the
insanity of where we are at this moment. Let's take

(33:36):
some of the comments here, Travis, are you there. Okay,
I think Travis stepped out. I think he had to
go the rest of it. So we're going to let's
do some Christmas here.

Speaker 3 (33:47):
Oh okay, the button wasn't working for a second. Oh okay,
we have North American House hippo. Thank you very much.
That is very generous, and he links a Rumble video
talking about the high beef price is because a migrants. Says,
this is my first thought regarding migrants and their cows.

Speaker 2 (34:05):
It's migrant cows. Yeah, that's it. They're taking the market
down again. I've got a beef with Bessent. This guy
is a How do the Republicans manage this? Double think? Again?
It's it's mad as an insane, make America double think?
You know you can say, look at every time something happens,

(34:26):
it's sorrow. Stu's behind this. Sauruces on it. And then
Trump puts in Sorous's right hand man as his treachery secretary.
And he's okay, no matter how many times he lies
to us or what he does, it's okay.

Speaker 3 (34:40):
And we have I'm Marty.

Speaker 2 (34:43):
You want to thank Mary, Yes, thank you, thank you, Marty.
Appreciate that, and he.

Speaker 3 (34:47):
Says I'll match you're twenty five North American hosip, thank
you very much to thank you, thank you so much.
And then we have m Sellers says thank you to
miss Karen for mailing my package so quickly. The David
Night Shoe Journal is beautiful and the page marker so cool.
My husband is going to love this. Merry Christmas, hopefully
reacheking that out that it spoil the surprise.

Speaker 2 (35:06):
Yeah, and don't let him watch the program.

Speaker 3 (35:08):
Yeah, send him out of the room, Bronx stopper one
one one, Come on, David. You know that the United
States is the greatest empire in the world, some say
greatest ever. We're the police of the world and therefore
everything is ours.

Speaker 2 (35:21):
That's right, Yeah, agree, Yes. How long does it take
if we're going to have we're going to be policeman
of the world and we can do anything that we
wish as the policeman of the world, How long does
it take before those weapons of quote unquote defense abroad
become instruments of tyranny at home? You know, the founders
of this country understood human nature, and they understood politics

(35:44):
and how these two things interplay with each other.

Speaker 3 (35:45):
They saw this coming and Gie Oswald says, in a decade,
we'll go to war for solar panel fields. Why are
we going to war for oil when we're trying to
go green?

Speaker 2 (35:55):
That's right, that's right.

Speaker 3 (35:58):
President Ovonte seventeen seventy six says NATO means neocon aggressor
terrorist organization.

Speaker 2 (36:04):
That's a good one. I like that.

Speaker 3 (36:06):
And KWD sixty eight says we need the one trillion
dollar military budget to replace that we gave Ukraine and Israel.

Speaker 1 (36:13):
Yeah, it so much.

Speaker 2 (36:17):
That's right. Well, we're gonna take a quick break, folks,
we'll be right back.

Speaker 4 (36:20):
Hello, it's me Voladimir Zelenski. I'm so tired of wearing
these same T shirts everywhere for years. You'd think with
all the billions I've skimmed off America, I could dress better.
And I could if only David Knight would send me
one of his beautiful gray mcguffin hoodies or a new
black T shirt with the mcguffin logo in blue.

Speaker 3 (36:43):
But he told me to get lost.

Speaker 4 (36:45):
Maybe one of you American suckers can buy me some
at the David Knightshow dot com. You should be able
to buy me several hundred those amazing sand colored microphone
hoodies are so beautiful. I'd wear something other than green
military cosplay.

Speaker 3 (37:00):
To my various galas and social events.

Speaker 4 (37:03):
If you want to save on shipping, just put it
in the next package of bombs and missiles coming from
the USA.

Speaker 1 (38:19):
You're listening to the David Knight Show. This is the

(38:49):
David Night Show.

Speaker 5 (38:52):
Here news now at apsradionews dot com or get the
APS radio app and never miss another story.

Speaker 2 (39:01):
Earlier. It is interesting to see how the police state
is really ratcheting up in our own country. It's not
just flock cameras everywhere, but are paranoid, overreaching overlords who
wished to be omnipotent, omnipresent and let's see what's the
other one. Anyway, they're doing it again. They're doing it

(39:26):
at the border. The US is proposing collecting DNA from
foreign tourists. Now just getting like Hitchhiger's guy at the Galaxy, Travis,
where you know they measure exactly how how much you
What was it about the fat or something going on
to a particular planet. Do you remember that Travis has

(39:48):
gone again? I guess I don't know. He's not working.
He was telling me that he had some issues with
his fat fingers. She's still having fat finger issues. Just
waved to me.

Speaker 3 (39:57):
I'm here, sorry, I'm trying to work on something on
the back end, having some issues.

Speaker 2 (40:02):
Okay, we got a live program going on here right now.
He's trying to do live repairs as we're trying to
do a live program. I think, yeah, yeah, okay, good.
But what was that? Do you remember that Hitchhiker's guy
of the Galaxy? You guys are all over that, you
and Lance Man. But anyway, you had to as you

(40:22):
were leaving, you had they had to make sure that
you didn't weigh more than you did when you're coming in,
or they'd have to cut it out of your body,
you know. So the Trump administration is now considering a
dramatic expansion of data collection on foreign tourists, including a
proposal that would allow authorities to collect DNA from people
entering America. Is it a free country? No, it isn't.

(40:47):
It's the country. It's one country under technocrats, government buy
and for the technocrats. These are countries under the visa
waiver program. So these are travelers who are coming from
friendly allied nations that have a long standing visa free agreement.
The proposal appears in a new Department of Homeland Security

(41:08):
notice that seeks public comment on the revisions to the
electronic system for travel authorization and the I ninety four
arrival and departure records. So again, this is the way
government operates.

Speaker 3 (41:21):
Now.

Speaker 2 (41:21):
We don't forget the Schoolhouse rock thing and I'm a bill,
I'm a bill on Capitol Hill thing. That's not the
way it works. Forget the constitution. The way this works
is the executive branch deep state that supposedly we're going
to get rid of. They're free to do anything that
they want. These types of things are supposed to come
from our elected representatives in Congress, but they don't. They

(41:46):
don't even come from the Senate. They are things that
are You have the bureaucracies that they create, and then
they have abdicated their power to those bureaucracies to do
whatever they wish, and then the bureaucracies in most cases
will wind up and force the rules. They have their
own little police forces that are out there as well
as adjudicate whether or not you have broken the rules

(42:08):
that they created that they are enforcing. Talk about a
consolidation of government. We've taken all three of the branches,
and we've combined them now into an unlikeed bureaucracy. And
this is just the latest example of it. Just like
they said, well we're going to require we're going to
require real ID or we're going to charge you eighteen dollars.

(42:30):
And then they didn't get any comments, I guess, so
they said, well, no, we decided to make it forty five.
They just do it. Then they said, well, we're going
to require five years of social media history from anybody
coming to this country as a visitor. And now you've
got to give your DNA. Do you go see the
happiest place on Earth?

Speaker 6 (42:48):
Right?

Speaker 2 (42:49):
Well, this is going to do to Disney World tourism.
I think they're having a difficult time. Certainly Vegas is
having a big issue with that. So a broad set
of new data elements that they're going to collect, and
they just decided they're going to do it, and they
tell people try to stop us. I say, the way

(43:10):
the whole executive branch operates, from Trump down to these
other organizations and the other organizations, bureocracies, the unconstitutional bureaucracies
that shouldn't even exist, have been doing this for quite
some time. And you could see this pretty much with
the IRS that really kind of set up the pattern
a law under themselves. They would write the tax code,

(43:32):
they would adjudicate where they violated their tax code. They
would drag you into their courts, they had their police
and so forth and so on. Now this is being
adopted by all of them because it works so well
for the IRS. Among the elements that they will collect
is DNA, alongside facial images, fingerprints, IRIS scans. What do

(43:52):
you think our government that is this paranoid, this much
focused on a control being omnipotent, omnipresent and omniscient, knowing
everything about everybody. What do you think they're going to
do to us? Their fatherland security administration from the very beginning,

(44:16):
you know, that's really what this is about. The Nazis
called it their fatherland. We call it the homeland. Same thing, folks,
same ideas. This is represent the most extreme biometric data
collection regime anywhere in the world. Yeah, the US already
had the most extreme security measures after nine to eleven.

(44:39):
Like I said, when we were in China, there were
these announcements as we were leaving. If you're going to
the United States, you have to get there extra early,
but you know, because we've got to go through all
kinds of extra security procedures, and now they're still ramping
it up. The US has collected fingerprints from most foreign
visitors for years, but this significantly expanded after September eleventh.

(45:00):
So right now they're just doing fingerprints and photographs, but
now they're going to do social Next, they're going to
do social media and DNA fingerprints. While intrusive are generally
used to identify verifications and law enforcement matching, DNA, by contrast,
contains vastly more information, including genetic relationships, health predispositions, and

(45:23):
biological traits that extend far beyond identity confirmation. The proposal
is particularly notable because it would apply even two applicants
coming from friendly countries. These agreements that have been there
as part of the visa waiver program are based on
mutual trust in order to streamline travel. You know, it

(45:45):
used to be that if you want to go to
the UK, you didn't have to get a separate visa
because they were countries that were friendly to each other
and trusted each other. But now it's not going to
be the case for people coming from the UK to here,
so again they're making this social media disclosure and now
they're proposing DNA, making it all mandatory to come to America.

(46:08):
The agency wants to collect extensive family information, including names, dates,
places of birth, contact details, residences for parents, spouses, siblings,
and children. This is your tutalitarian technocrat Trump regime, always

(46:28):
looking for more data that they can put in there. Yeah,
missus Robinson, we'd like to know a little bit about
you for our finals social map of millions of travelers
each year the technocracy. The document links the expanded data
collection to a January twenty twenty five executive order as

(46:49):
well as another executive order of April twenty twenty five.
So again, this is rule by fiat by Donald Trump,
and this is the kind of stuff that we see
when we have a king as aar. It doesn't, however,
explain how DNA collection will be operationalized, stored, shared, or

(47:11):
protected from misuse. I'm sure they're going to turn it
over to Musk and Altman to do with it what
they wish. Unlike fingerprints, DNA can be used to infer
familial connections, the meaning that the data of one traveler
could effectively place their relatives under ndirect genetic surveillance, even
if those relatives never even travel to the US. It

(47:33):
also raises international implications. Many visa waiver programmed countries have
strong data protection laws, including restrictions on genetic data collection,
so put some at odds, but they'll be more than
happy to do the same thing to those of US
going to their country, as well as to their own
people as well. CBP is currently seeking public comment. The

(47:55):
agency describes changes as part of an effort to enhance security,
to reduce fraud, to modernize traveler vetting. You know, we
have been working on enhancing security since the end of
World War Two. Why have we never achieved It seems
like the more we work to enhance security about everything,
the less security we have. Certainly, the less liberty we have,

(48:18):
the less rule of law we have. This is the
security state. The DNA provision would place the US far
beyond existing global norms for border screening, transforming short term
travel into one of the most invasive data collection exercises
any democratically elected government has ever imposed on visitors. There

(48:41):
is a public comment on this proposal that is opened
for sixty days, So tell them what you think. If
you want it won't matter. They're going to do whatever
they wish. Constitution doesn't matter. Remember when the CIA tried
to unlock mind control of this article from Reason talking
about mk ultra. They have a very limited take on

(49:02):
mk ULTRA. The reason they're bringing it up is because
the University of Texas historian John Lyle has just done
a book about this, and so they talked about it
in the context of that book. And of course it
was Sidney Gottlieb if I remember correctly, I think there
was somebody that I interviewed called him the Poisoner in Chief.

(49:25):
I think, wasn't it. I think that was Sidney gottlib
I think it ran for him.

Speaker 3 (49:30):
That sounds right.

Speaker 2 (49:31):
So they say mk ULTRA ran from fifty three to
seventy five, that we think that's true. I don't know.
You know, there was an excellent book by Annie Jacobson
about DARPA, and you know the take that most of
these people do, especially because they're going in and have
access to the people who've done these crimes. Right, So

(49:53):
they get access to these government officials and they make
sure they keep their access to them. And so even
when they go in and talk about the abuse of
the CIA MK Ultra program and you know LSD and
other things like that, or they talk about DARPA as well.
They'll say, yeah, you know, this is really horrible, wasn't it.
You know, but don't it. I'm glad they're not doing

(50:13):
this anymore. You know. That was part of the book
Raven Rock, the plan to save themselves and let the
rest of us die, And he was in that. He
very explicitly said it over and over again. Well this
is the way things were back in the fifties and sixties.
Good thing they've changed now. You know, our government's not
like that at all. A couple looking it's like, you

(50:35):
have no idea. They are so much worse than they
were then. So Lala is careful not to speculate beyond
the available evidence that he could collect, even though he
acknowledges that the CIA destroyed most of the evidence. Just
go with what they wanted you to see. But what
is on the record is bad enough, they said the CIA.

(50:59):
Of course, you powerful drugs such as LSD, on fellow agents,
on prisoners, on mental patients.

Speaker 7 (51:05):
And.

Speaker 2 (51:07):
The whole book about that they made into a short
film actually WORMWD about one of the guys who was
with the program and how he had some issues with it,
so he wound up being defenestrated through a closed window
after he started blowing the whistle on it. Anyway, they

(51:29):
would also use it on people who are sucked into
prostitution honeypots in San Francisco. Yeah, you see this whole
thing about Epstein and Masad and see how it's the
way to operate all the time prostitution honeypots. There were
some genuine volunteers. Even Gottlieb mournfully concluded that LSD was
quote in fact, not a reliable way to get information

(51:52):
from people. You know, if it was, he would have
no problem doing it. I mean he stopped it because
he didn't get out of it exactly what he wanted.
They are all kinds of things. Dumping it in the
water supply of a French town, you know, they were
looking at it as a way to confuse and disorient
the people at war. It's what they said. These people
have been very much into Satanism and other things like that,

(52:16):
and it's their obsession with reading people's minds and controlling
people's minds is something that has been about the only
constant that's there the tactics that they use are constantly changing.
They try to do it through chemicals. They've decided that
they can do it better through EMF and that's where

(52:38):
we are today.

Speaker 3 (52:40):
Briefly, A very interesting book is Chaos by Tom O'Neill.
It's about the Manson murders and it dovetails in with
MK ultra in places. It's very interesting. There's some fairly compelling,
circumstantial evidence to argue that Charles Manson may have had
some contact with people involved with MK Ultra, such as

(53:03):
doctor Jolly West.

Speaker 2 (53:05):
Yeah. Well, there's just so few degrees of separation all
that stuff, right, Kenkesy and his band of Mary pranksters.
There were some of the volunteers with the LSD program,
and so you know, you can draw the lines very
quickly to all this kind of stuff. But again, the
CIA is not just evil and satanic in terms of
its wars and its honey pot prostitution rings to blackmail people.

(53:31):
They have been actively involved in subverting our society in
so many different ways. I mean, we could talk about
and we did talk about yesterday, and it's absolutely true.
You know, you have the Fabian socialists that are out there,
and you have who are doing it very subtly, and
so forth, the Marxist who are trying to set us
against each other for a violent conflict and revolution. You've

(53:54):
got a CIA and people like that trying to undermine
our society's values with drugs, with art, with music and
all these other They're very deliberate in those processes. In
the mid twentieth century, it truly is amazing. It's almost
like there's all these different demonic forces out there. They've
all got their own tactic and strategy, and they're all

(54:14):
hitting us at once. It's a multi pronged war, spiritual war.
In addition to its LSD efforts, it funded such dangerously
absurd psychology psychology experience experiments as forcing people to listen
to constant negative statements continuously through headphones. I hope you
don't consider this broadcast. I try to give you positive news. Yeah,

(54:37):
this is what these people are about, and that's its
constant negative news. However, there is the good news of
the Lord Jesus Christ, and this time of year that
we celebrate is coming into darkness, and that is what
transcends all this. Don't ever forget that.

Speaker 3 (54:54):
No matter how bleak the world may seem this too
shall pass, But we don't.

Speaker 2 (55:00):
I want to be Pollyanna about things, and we want
to understand where the threats are. But we also need
to know what our refuge in our foundation is. You know,
when you look at the psalms David over and over again,
you know God is his refuge, his high tower. That
should be years as well. So they worked on week
long sensory deprivation investigating the knockout potential of tick saliva.

(55:25):
Is this not kind of almost a smoking gun for
lyme disease and Plumb Island and all the rest of
that stuff truly is amazing. Well, meanwhile, Trump is cause
playing as a victim in this lawsuit with the BBC.
That's the take headline from Raws story, and that's what

(55:45):
the British was saying about it. Trump received sharp criticism
from the Guardian's editorial board on Tuesday after he sued
the BBC for defamation. Trump filed a thirty three page
complaint in a court on Florida on Monday, alleging that
the BBC deceptively edited a portion of a documentary The
Details January sixth, twenty twenty one. The lawsuit seeks to

(56:09):
recoup ten billion dollars in damages. Absolutely absurd. The BBC
has said that it will defend itself in the case.
By the way, it just reminds me, you know, the
way Trump and Milania have threatened people. You know, don't
talk about the decades that I spent with Jeffrey Epstein
all or I'll sue you for defamation. Actually, it's definition

(56:33):
of character is what it is. But Fox News is
putting out trailers of Milania. She's got this new and
in it it's amazing. They make her look like she's
some badass high fashion model or something. It's just it's disgusting,
I think, you know. And at the same time, it's like,
you know, look at me. Here I am with my

(56:55):
you know, ten thousand dollars purse, in my twenty thousand
dollars shoes and everything, and you know, telling Trump, well,
I'll be there later. Maybe you take care of it yourself.
You know, I'm the ultimate queen. So you know, we
got a king and now we got a queen. And
they're celebrating this. This is this is what the Trump
people are doing. They're normalizing the things that decent people

(57:17):
have always looked to skew at that's their role.

Speaker 3 (57:22):
One thing that strikes me is that in the early
and even to mid thousands, you had all those worthless
tabloids at the grocery store, and you were kind of
looked down on in society if you were one of
those people that followed celebrities religiously. You know, you weren't
necessarily shunned, but people thought you were kind of a
senseless goof.

Speaker 2 (57:43):
And now, well that was in our family, but I
don't know that was universal.

Speaker 3 (57:46):
I like to think that it was a more universal sentiment.
But now everyone is continually caught up on everything, their
celebrity of choices. Doing people have done that with Donald
Trump and Millennia.

Speaker 2 (57:58):
Yeah, I don't know. I don't know that it's it's
I don't know, it's not unusual. I mean, I've seen
that all my life. Pretty much. Everybody was amazed in
the middle of the twentieth century how teenage girls would
react to first Frank Sinatra, then Elvis Presley, then the
Beatles and so forth, and that kind.

Speaker 3 (58:15):
Of the entire country has become teenage girls.

Speaker 2 (58:19):
That's pretty good. Now, that's accurate, that's absolutely accurate. Yeah,
the Republicans have become democrats, Democrats have become open Marxists,
and the country in general has become OCD teenage girls.

Speaker 3 (58:30):
That's right, swooning over whichever politician they like at the moment.

Speaker 2 (58:35):
That's right. A terse BBC statement in response to the
lawsuit suggested that there would be no backing down in
the face of Trump's bullying. That is the right response
to an absurd claim of overwhelming financial and reputational harm
caused to the US president and a fantastical request for
damages amounting to ten billion dollars. The Guardian said a

(59:02):
serious era of judgment was made in the editing process,
though the House of Representatives January sixth committee concluded that
Trump did use his speech to incite an insurrection, but
the claim that a program that was not even broadcast
in the US was part of a malicious plan to
defame mister Trump and subvert the Democrat process ahead of

(59:25):
last year's election is utterly specious. So what I just
said earlier, I think the most important subversion of the
election was the vote by mail stuff this particular time around,
And that's one hundred percent Trump's responsibility. It's his fault.
By relentlessly targeting the USA legacy media and now the

(59:47):
BBC while cause playing the role of victim. Trump is
seeking to galvanize his base and to narrow the parameters
of acceptable scrutiny and judgment. Well, what he's trying to
do is he's trying to destroy the free press of
speech by intimidation by law fair. He doesn't dislike lawfair,

(01:00:07):
he wants to use it his health. So the population
of vaccination and movement restrictions. This is what's going on
in France. As I said before, the farmers there realize
how revolting government is and they're about to revolt themselves.
The slaughter of entire herds of cattle in order to
combat a supposed disease outbreak in France has sparked widespread

(01:00:30):
protests and farmers revolt and made comparisons to the draconian
COVID measures. And again, this is what it's all about.
This is the PCR test, and it will be used
to create one fantasy pandemic after the other. So it
was necessary for Carrie Mullis to have died before all
this stuff kicked off. I'm not so sure that was coincidence.

(01:00:54):
After two nights of clashes, counts, and tear gas, a
group of veterinarians finally stepped out of an armored police
vehicle their task to euthanize cattle, hundreds of them at
a time, in order to stop a contagious disease engulfing
southern France. We have to kill you in order to
save you. That's the insanity of this. And we talked

(01:01:16):
about all this over and over again. The insanity that, Okay,
so you've got a million chickens. You got one chicken
that maybe isn't even sick, doesn't have any symptoms. But
even if it were sick, and the others are not sick,
that's how according to their contagion theory, which I no
longer subscribe to. By the way, I just put that
in as a footnote. It prove it scientifically, they don't.

(01:01:41):
But if the contagion thing were legitimate science the theory,
their theory that they violate their theory is that you
would the other animals that were there would either have
a be genetically predispose not to get that disease, or

(01:02:03):
they would have the immune system that would be able
to handle it and subvert it. And now they would
have immunity. That's how you would get heard immunity. But
now as part of the COVID thing, they sold the lie. Well,
the only way that you can get heard immunity is
not by natural immunity. The only way that you can
get heard immunity is by vaccines. And again that is

(01:02:25):
such an absurd thing. Their theory of immunity and virology
and all the rest of that is that the vaccine
is there to train your immune system to identify something
so the one it encounter is a real thing, you'll
know how to fight it. So this is like people
who are fighter pilots training on simulators so they'll be

(01:02:45):
able to do it in the real dogfight, which they
don't have anymore. But anyway, the bottom line is that, well,
if you can survive the real battle, you don't need
to have the simulator, right, and the real battle is
much more of a test. People who do well in
a simulator may not survive in a real battle. And

(01:03:06):
so that's the nonsense behind all this, the idea of
this phony science of virology that how immunity works, and
the contagion all the rest of the stuff. They just
threw all that stuff out the window during COVID and
now it's all about, no, we don't do any challenge
never have done any challenge tests. In other words, they

(01:03:27):
never have checked their vaccine theories, their virology theories by
vaccinating people and then exposing them to the disease that
they were vaccinated for to see if they catch the disease,
because they haven't isolated the disease and they don't test
the vaccines. Folks, it is such a sham and it's

(01:03:51):
absolutely unbelievable. What a sham and what a lie. This
whole thing is. It's just like thing, your vaccine, your
mass doesn't protect you, somebody else's does. Well, that's how
they get to this point. But this is the absurdity.
They're doing it with the animals. They're doing it now
with cattle, as they did it here with the chickens.
And of course Trump gets in it's like, well, we're

(01:04:11):
going to stop killing all the chickens. But the way
that you stop it is you have your chickens vaccinated
with MR and A. That's what Brooke Crawlin's at the
USDA did. So, Okay, just get everything vaccinated and we'll
leave you alone. Otherwise we'll kill all your livestock if
you don't get them vaccinated. How corrupt. Yet, for many farmers,

(01:04:33):
the vets are the sharp end of an over zealous
tool of quote total slaughter unquote reminiscent of the COVID error.
I would say error e r the regulatory overkill, and
they are galvanized to take extreme action to stop it.
So unlike America, we just passively go along because we

(01:04:55):
are the cattle Right National Veterinary Order said, and intervening
under police escort with hundreds of angry people waiting is
something we have never experienced at this level. We need
to stop making yourself tools of this tyranny. We're going
to experience worse. Online abuse has escalated. Some vets are
being told keep going like this and we'll put your

(01:05:19):
heads on pikes. The standoff has left Macron already an
embattled president and his soldier monk Prime Minister Sebastian Lacorna
scrambling to avert a Christmas of discontent. Now is the
winter of our discontent, right, and poor Emmanuel Macron is

(01:05:40):
cast in this article as the victim. He's a victim,
you know, like poor Fauci. So again we've seen all
of this. We saw it with COVID. They saw it
with COVID, and they came up with these absurd premises
and they're going to keep them because nobody has pushed back.
Nobody has said, nobody has paid a price for this,

(01:06:02):
not in any single country. They all did the same thing,
and they all got away with it. And now they're
doing it to our food supply, and they're going to
do it to us again with some made up disease
that they come along with. Next the A sixty three
motorway near it, brother farmers dismantled a speed camera they
said was blocking tractors and they dumped it into a bonfire,

(01:06:26):
and the footage went online and went viral online. You know,
once you start realizing what this is really about, people
get the big picture. Right. They think we don't know,
but we do. And just as Oliver Anthony said, the
people north Richmond, they think we don't understand what they're

(01:06:48):
doing to us, but we understand what they're doing. The
question is how long are we going to take it? Elsewhere?
Measures have been hurled at prefectures, slurry sprayed on state buildings,
and tires set on fire beneath motorway bridges as tractors
tore up barriers and turned infrastructure itself into a weapon
of protest. Now, the heart of the unrest is a

(01:07:12):
lumpy skin disease, that's what they call it. It's harmless
to humans. But you know, we're going to have to
kill all the cattle to save the cattle from this
disease that is harmless to humans. In response, authorities have
imposed a strict eradication strategy, a systematic culling of infected herds,
bands on livestock movements, emergency vaccinations. Again, they tried their

(01:07:35):
hand at that here in the United States with a
bird flu. Remember what they did all we're going to
go test milk. Now, why would you test milk if
you got bird flu? Right? None of this stuff makes
any logical sense. You know that they're just making this up.
It's any kind of a pretense. It's as ridiculous as
Trump's Canada is shipping Fitanel to us, or Venezuela's shipping

(01:07:58):
fitanel to us. All this stuff that they were doing
with cattle, with milk and everything trying to tie together
with a bird flu was every bit as absurd as
all the nonsense that Trump is doing about fentanyl coming
from all these different places. So wiping out entire herds
for a single confirmed case has become unbearable. And again

(01:08:21):
we're talking about a case that means that this is PCR.
That means that there's not necessarily a sick animal. That's
certainly not a death, but even of an animal for
them to wipe out an entire herd. But this is
a little bit different. People. These these are much more
valuable animals, and they're much more relatable than chickens. Chickens

(01:08:48):
don't have eyebrows, as they say, right, you got something
that's got an eyebrow. You got a friendly cow or
something that They give them names. They say the cows
have names, they have character, they have history. One farmer said,
for them at night. I work seven days a week
with them, and I'll fight to the end for mi cows.
If they solder or heard, we won't be able to

(01:09:09):
start again. It'll be the end of a lifetime of work,
said another farmer. The genetics the work of our parents
and our grandparents. In other words, they worked on optimizing
their herd genetically over a very long period of time,
and they're going to end all that, and why well,
because they want you to be forced to buy their

(01:09:31):
lab meat that Bill Gates is going to make, and
that people like Mark Ruda, now the head of NATO,
wanted to have a monopoly on the distribution of the
lab meat from Bill Gates. Left wing Union has branded
the eradication policy has quote more frightening than the illness itself.
It usually is urging an end to the calls and

(01:09:52):
calling for blockades to put an end to this madness.
The anger is being fueled by a broader set of
factors vo collapsing farm incomes just like here, regulatory fatigue
just like here, and fear of cuts to the agricultural budget.
On Monday, the revolt spread beyond farmers themselves. More than

(01:10:14):
two hundred mayors and elected officials gathered outside the prefecture
and FOI in one area, calling on the state to
urgently listen and a reopen dialogue with the farmers, and
demanding a rethinking of the total culling protocol in favor
of more targeted slaughter of infected animals. This is what

(01:10:37):
is needed and what we have not seen in reaction
to any of this stuff here in America. Local elected
officials standing with the people whose lives and livelihoods are
being destroyed by unnecessary tyranny from our government, pretending that
they're protecting us from a disease. The French agriculture minister, however,

(01:10:58):
insisted that she had no alternative. She said, to save
the entire industry, slaughter is the only solution. Kill them all,
to save them all. And just like Brooke Rawlings and
she said, there are three non negotiable pillars. Listen to
three pillars of this stuff. Depopulation, vaccination and movement restrictions.

(01:11:21):
What this has always been about. The lockdown and restricting
movement that they did to us with COVID, that they
did with birds and cattle and all the rest of
this stuff. Those two things go together. They've been practicing
and wargaming that stuff since two months before nine to eleven.
And in the long term, folks, it's not about depopulation

(01:11:42):
of cattle or birds or pigs. It's about depopulation of people.
That's the most effective way for them to control the
people who are left, and that's through making sure there's
not that many of us. Go ahead, Travis pick up.

Speaker 3 (01:11:58):
We've gotten quite a lot of comment here we've got
Pesidanovante seventeen seventy six says over one hundred bombing runs
in Somalia. In twenty twenty five, carried out by Africom
M Wally Wallrace says, you invest one million in a
politician and get one billion back. It's the best return
on investment you can get.

Speaker 2 (01:12:18):
Yeah, it usually works out about one thousand to one
that you get.

Speaker 3 (01:12:23):
North American House Hippo says the TSA and I don't
get along, don't get along.

Speaker 2 (01:12:29):
With many people. That's right, Yeah, I both Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:12:33):
Nivoodoo twenty twenty nine says it will start with foreign
travelers then soon become mandatory for everyone traveling by air.
Show them your DNA app on your smartphone.

Speaker 2 (01:12:43):
Your master's smartphone. Yeah, that's right.

Speaker 3 (01:12:46):
North American House Hippo again says every Friday when I
get paid, every time I go shopping, and every April
fifteenth as well, I'm just totally filled with joy and
how rich the federal government has become. Isn't it wonderful?

Speaker 2 (01:12:59):
Yeah? Yeah. Trump is bragging about that about how you know,
eighteen trillion dollars. It's ridiculous the numbers that he's coming up.
But it's just like his Ventanyl stories.

Speaker 3 (01:13:10):
Don't frag me, bro says, Doctor Jolly West is a
CIA literal mad scientist wanted create Frankenstein and Doctor Jekyl.
He was a very interesting character. Even people that knew
him at best could describe him as a benevolent psychopath,
which there is no such thing, Jerry Alatalo says, sadly,

(01:13:32):
mind control freak scientist Jolly West never experienced a holly
jolly Christmas. Allegedly, allegedly, his own son helped him commit
suicide at the end of his life. There you go,
that's a fun fact, fitting not very fun in fact.
Jerry Altalo lewis jolly on. Jolly West was an American

(01:13:56):
psychiatrist known for his research on brainwashing and mind control. Yeah,
he was involved in a lot of different things. He
would crop up randomly in strange places. What's he doing here?
And Birdhouse Blue says, is your dad moonlighting? Is Santa
Claus on the weekends?

Speaker 2 (01:14:13):
Who knows? Maybe I could?

Speaker 6 (01:14:15):
You know.

Speaker 1 (01:14:15):
It's like.

Speaker 2 (01:14:17):
I got the white beard here and need to let
it grond a little bit longer. They've got a guy
with a real beard down in Pigeon Forge, they got
a Christmas store there and they have a Santa Claus.
It's there most of the year around, But not me.
I bet those guys make pretty good money. I remember
a few years ago there was a guy they would
he played Santa Claus, but he went to like the UAE,

(01:14:39):
where they've got tons and tons of money, and they
thought it would be amusing to have an American Santa
Claus or whatever. They'd make like fifty thousand dollars in
just one month going to the UAE and being Santa Claus.
But yeah, I think I would probably wind up committing suicide.
Like colleag.

Speaker 3 (01:15:00):
Anta Claus allowed to have his hoes in the UAE.
I don't know. They might think that's haram.

Speaker 2 (01:15:04):
Yeah that's right. I don't know. Yeah, I would not
want to take a chance going to that country where
anything talk about different places.

Speaker 3 (01:15:11):
Yeah, might not make it out. There's routine these stories
of American tourists getting thrown in prison over there because you.

Speaker 2 (01:15:18):
Know, they don't care, never know when they have done
a haram social taboo or.

Speaker 3 (01:15:23):
Some got a ton of different rules and laws and
they've got enough money that they don't have to bow
and scrape to America's foreign policy. So if you get
thrown in prison, there's no guarantee the United States government
is going to make any sort of effort to get
you back.

Speaker 2 (01:15:36):
They US government doesn't care about that at all. No,
they don't have any loyalty to any citizens. We're gonna
take a quick break, folks. We'll be right back.

Speaker 3 (01:16:00):
M h.

Speaker 1 (01:16:31):
You're listening to the David Night Show and now the

(01:17:25):
David Knight Show.

Speaker 8 (01:17:30):
Even take a photo on a phone, there is machine
learning in the background.

Speaker 7 (01:17:34):
Highest quality video capture ever in a smartphone.

Speaker 8 (01:17:37):
In the metaverse, we're going to need AI that is
build around helping people navigate virtual worlds as well as
our physical world with augmented reality. Augmented reality is a
profound technology that include it's like your position in three
D space, your body language, facial gestures, and we invented
new intimate ways to connect and communicate directly from your

(01:18:02):
rist everything from virtual reality to designing our own data centers.

Speaker 3 (01:18:06):
Describing what's coming even it's just so different in you.
I've been in this infrastructure business for you know.

Speaker 1 (01:18:12):
Three decades.

Speaker 2 (01:18:13):
No one has ever seen industry.

Speaker 8 (01:18:14):
Yeah, and now I expect that these trends will only
increase in the future.

Speaker 9 (01:18:19):
And in the last few months we launched voice and
vision capabilities so that chat ept can now.

Speaker 8 (01:18:25):
See here and speak.

Speaker 9 (01:18:31):
Courts up to one hundred and twenty eight thousand tokens
of contexts. That's three hundred pages of a standard book.

Speaker 2 (01:18:36):
That's all AI generated.

Speaker 8 (01:18:39):
Actually, let's add some alto Cumulus funds.

Speaker 10 (01:18:45):
All right, break free the technocratic Night mayor this Christmas
and go back to basics. Whether David Night showed bookmark
and notebook, This high quality and boss metal bookmark with
a full color design on the back is guaranteed to
be cross compatible with all physical books, and the beautiful
Foe leather notebook is one hacking proof. An ideal gift

(01:19:06):
for fans of The David Knight Show or anyone looking
to start a journaling or prayer journal habit.

Speaker 2 (01:19:11):
No bells, no whistles, just pen and paper. Available at
Davidknight dot News. Merry Christmas. List of these guys say
it's so new, it's so different, It's a wonder you
love it. It's like I'm so over their technology. I

(01:19:35):
just I really don't care what they do anymore. I
used to be on top of that stuff. I've really
outgrown it quite frankly, but yeah, opportunity for you to
it's a nice looking bookmark. Learn to think Ryan Forthy
did this as well as the commemorative medallions that are there,
and that's that's what the bookmark is based on. And
then of course the book itself is the way that

(01:19:57):
you can do journalism. It's always good to do not
just journalism, but to journal your life and to keep
a record of what is happening to you. It's always
nice to go back and look at especially if you
look at it from a spiritual standpoint. If you make
that part of your journaling, it's interesting even if you
just go back and record the everyday things that are
happening to you at a given period of time, you know,

(01:20:18):
to we forget some of those things. We remember them
differently than the way we're experiencing them at the time.
So it's always good to do that a life of reflection.
So regular people are starting to rise up against AI
S right, I let you go on.

Speaker 3 (01:20:32):
I have to break in and remind people that they
like to support us, they can also support the people
that sponsor the show, and then go to Homestead Products
Dot Shop on sale right now. They have their seasoning blend.
It's normally eight dollars, but right now it's six ninety nine.
It's all purpose seasoning. You can see it here.

Speaker 2 (01:20:50):
Because it's the seasoning to be blending here exactly.

Speaker 3 (01:20:54):
You can see it there. They work very hard to
make sure that their products are high quality, made in America.
This is going to be on GMO. It is going
to taste delicious, I'm sure.

Speaker 2 (01:21:04):
Yeah. They got great products and like the hot sauce
that you had, you really love that.

Speaker 3 (01:21:07):
Yeah, And the ingredients are onion, black pepper, garlic, salt,
and cayenne pepper. There's nothing weird, there's no strange chemicals
you can't pronounce.

Speaker 2 (01:21:16):
That's right. That's the key thing.

Speaker 3 (01:21:17):
High quality grown in America.

Speaker 2 (01:21:20):
And that's what you see over and over again from them.
You know, you want to start your start your barbecue
grills with tumbleweed stuff rather than using charcoal and wider
fluid and all the rest of the stuff that's going
to outgas on your meat. It's a lot of very
good natural stuff.

Speaker 3 (01:21:38):
And of course you can get ten percent off everything
at their store by using promo code Night. And when
you shop there, you are shopping with the good guys. Yeah,
Homestead Products dot Shop, Yes very much. And before we
go on, you just got a couple of comments. I'm
Marty says, please no more Zuckerberg for torturing the fans.

Speaker 2 (01:21:59):
Yeah, well at a short commercial and we will probably
change that up after Christmas because that was just a
quick one there. That was one of the things. Last says,
I think I might have too much that Zuckerberg gets
kind of grading you to have them in there, But
the same thing with Lenski. Of course, those are actual
clips from Zuckerberg and Tim Cook and I don't remember

(01:22:21):
the CEOs of these other companies, but those are actual clips.
Those aren't deep fakes that are there. But the only
deep fake thing that's in there is the AI generated
FBI and CIA or an say or whatever listening to people.
But you know they don't take pictures themselves and put
it out on the internet doing that.

Speaker 3 (01:22:40):
So, yeah, we know they can't hack your books. Yet
maybe if you're writing in your journal, they can listen
by the sounds of the scratching on the page figure
out what you're writing.

Speaker 2 (01:22:51):
Yeah, they do that with the keyboards on your computer. Right,
So if you journal on your computer. They can they
can pick that up even if they're not inside your computer.
They can do it just eve dropping. That's been there
for forty five years. When I first got into first
jobs and engineering, part of it was tempesting, they called
it because you know, they were spying on each other
and they could they could electronically eavedrop on the keyboards

(01:23:14):
and figure out which keys you were pressing, even if
they couldn't actually get into your computer. It was a
much bigger deal back then, actually, because they didn't have
internet access or Wi Fi or other things like that
that are much easier to surveil than the way they
were doing it with the I forget what they called
the Actually the defense program was called tempest, and that

(01:23:34):
was where you went through and you made sure that
you didn't have the that your physical devices didn't emit
those kind of clues to them. But I forget what
they actually called the the Survellan's part of it anyway.

Speaker 3 (01:23:48):
And lastly, Ratisborough, thank you.

Speaker 2 (01:23:51):
That is very thank you very much. I appreciate it,
really do appreciate it, he says.

Speaker 3 (01:23:55):
Merry Christmas from an American mailman enjoying Vivek's Christmas crash
out a new American tradition. Well, it is apparently the
season to crash out. It's going around, whether you're Tim Poole,
the Quartering Candice Owens.

Speaker 2 (01:24:07):
Well, what is that about Ivek's crash out? I don't
know what I haven't.

Speaker 3 (01:24:12):
I don't pay any attention to Ramaswami.

Speaker 2 (01:24:14):
Yeah, I try to avoid him.

Speaker 3 (01:24:16):
He doesn't exist when I don't.

Speaker 2 (01:24:18):
Ratis bro maybe in Ohio. If he is, I'm sorry,
but we hope you are not Land of the the
enhanced MRA bio boys. That's JD Vance and Rama slimy.
So yeah, but thank you very much. I really do
appreciate that. It's a busy time of year for you.

(01:24:39):
If it's if you're doing mail. Yes, well, well, regular
people are rising up against AI surveillance, cameras, the flock stuff,
as I point out the other day, privacy violations, false positives,
and the abuse of power. Some individuals have taken matters
into their own hands, removing cameras or creating data bases

(01:25:00):
to track their presence. That's right, there's not too much
of that happening here in the US. We've become very pacified,
haven't we. I mean you see this type of thing
happening more in the UK and in France. AI surveillance
company pushing back against them is what I mean, taking
down the cameras. AI surveillance company. Flock Safety might be

(01:25:24):
having a banner year as it aggressively expands it, strigging
it across the US, but ordinary people are not impressed.
For four hours on Tuesday, residents of Longmont, Colorado, where
flock has at least twenty three AI powered cameras and
licensed readers, express their outrage to city councilors over the
city's contract with the company. According to local magazine, nearly

(01:25:48):
every seat at the hearing was full and ninety percent
of the attendees were there to express their transparency and
privacy concerns over Flock. Longmont's website states that the committee's
safety cameras do not perform predictive analytics or facial recognition.
They said, call the council. That same assurance is absent

(01:26:11):
from the Flock page, leaving me to believe that this
privacy standard may have been quietly discarded with Flock's adoptions. So,
in other words, this is the shell game. They play
plausible deniability. Well, the Government of Longmont would never resort
to the kind of creepy surveillance that you're talking about.

(01:26:31):
That's we leave that up to our subcontractors who can
do it and hand the stuff to us, and we
can claim that we're not doing it. This is the
oldest game in the book. As a matter of fact.
This is a lot of what's going on with the
Five Eyes, the five intelligence agencies that are constantly looking
at us, the US, Canada, Britain, UK and Australia New Zealand,

(01:26:55):
and what they'll do. In many cases, you know, they're
spying on their own citizens. But if it's something that
is there's a little bit of a legal issue with
that they think they might get in trouble. They have
their partners do it, so you know, hey, the British
spy on the Americans, the Americans spy on the British,
and then they hand that over to them, and so
they do the same thing with the corporations as partnership

(01:27:16):
as well, and then cross their fingers and say, well,
we're not actually spying on you, No they are. Flox's
retention policy doubles the length of data retention used for
community canvas from fourteen days to thirty days, once again
signaling to me that the flock standard has been a
convenient way to stretch the existing privacy standard, said one

(01:27:38):
person speaking at the meeting. And again, I don't know
the population of Long Want, Colorado. I've not heard of
it before. Imagine it's a pretty small town. We've got
a lot of small towns around here in this general
vicinity in Tennessee that are buying into this stuff. Where
are they get the money for that? Why are they
spending the money to spy on us? That's the real issue.

(01:27:59):
And it's at these small communities where we can have
a say in this, if we get enough people to
understand what is really being done to them. That's the
key thing. People don't understand it. The city council voted
then five to one in favor of rejecting any future
expansion of the flock cameras. But it's not clear what's

(01:28:19):
going to be done with the twenty three existing ones.
May we'll keep them there, right, it's this ratcheting effect.
It's pretty decisive when however, for the critics of the
tech and a suburb of Boulder, Colorado. So there's where
it is all throughout the country. Communities and activists are
rising up in anger against the cameras, which have been

(01:28:41):
installed largely at the behest of municipal police departments. And
so the police department says that we need it. And
of course, you know, it's kind of like the military
and the federal government. The military says they want something,
it's like, okay, you know, the government jomps and gives
them whatever they want. Same thing as true of the police.
In most places. The company's untested AI recognition program has

(01:29:03):
led to numerous false positives, But just as troubling as
the false positives are the cases where it does work,
like those of the Atlanta police chief who used Flock's
automated license plate reader to stalk and to harass people,
or the Texas cop who used data from eighty three
thousand automated license plate readers to track a woman suspected

(01:29:26):
of seeking an out of state abortion. This is coming
from futurism, and so this guy is going to track
people down for doing out of state abortions. But they can.
Whenever you have this kind of power, power is always
going to be used by these people, and they have
the power, they will use it. That's why they want it.
Citizens in areas like Yacama, Washington, and Cleveland, Ohio and Eugene,

(01:29:50):
Oregon have mounted municipal these municipal cameras, each of them
functioning as nodes in an interconnect network. Others have organized
public protests, ironically enough, becoming the likely subject of police
surveillance by Flock's AI facial recognition cameras. So it does

(01:30:13):
automated license plate reading facial recognition, but also builds a.

Speaker 1 (01:30:18):
Kind of a.

Speaker 2 (01:30:20):
Idiosyncratic profile of your vehicle, like a biometric thing, except
it's not alive anyway. Looks at the scratches, the dance
bumper stickers, that type of thing. So nor is anyone
going to go through official channels either. Earlier this week,

(01:30:42):
a man was accused of using vice scripts to rip
down thirteen of them throughout Suffolk, Virginia. Meanwhile, an open
source project called dflock, which we've talked about before, that's
de flock, has taken a crowd sourcing approach to map
these things across the country. Flock sent the activist behind

(01:31:03):
deflock a cease and desist order, but he is so
far defied the legal threat with help from the Electronic
Frontier Foundation, Well, good for him. Why is that got
to be a secret? Right? Put that up? And if
it isn't public. The whole basis of their business is
that if you're operating, if you're walking around or driving

(01:31:24):
in public, hey, we can take your picture and we
can send it to the police and we can do
all these other things with it. So on what basis
can they argue that you can't put up a map
of where their cameras are. That's absurd. I mean, for
the longest time, you've had a lot of driving apps
and other things like that that warn you where there
are cameras, speed cameras or red light cameras or things

(01:31:46):
like that. We've all got apps on our program on
our phones that'll tell us that type of thing. AI
industry insiders are living in fear of what they are creating.
Futurism says that must be hard, right at least they
feel just as paranoid and miserable about where all the
rest of where this is going as the rest of
us do. At Newer ips on the big AI research

(01:32:12):
conferences hell this year in San Diego Convention, visions of
AI doom were clearly on the mind of many scientists
and attendance. But as one guy who wrote for The
Atlantic pointed out, he said, these people aren't seeing the
forest for the trees, right. I mean, there's a lot
of things that they're talking about, these hypothetical doomsday scenarios,

(01:32:37):
and again, artificial general intelligence is still hypothetical, not clear
that they're going to achieve that at all or anything
close to it. Nevertheless, you know, they say, well, it's
going to become a super intelligent thing. This is the
premise of Hugo de Garrison, and he saw the negative
consequences of it. Of course, Ray Kurzweil thinks that's a

(01:32:57):
great thing if we create some horrific thinking machine. But
that's not a given at all. But they think about
the they think about that these imagined problems, but they
ignore the things that are right there in front of
us right now, in terms of how can be misused

(01:33:18):
for political advantage, how it can influence public opinion, how
it can influence children and other people who are already
disturbed in many different ways, you know, like Rob Bryer's
son or something that we've seen many cases where it
is intensified the demons that people are struggling with So

(01:33:38):
they didn't mention how fake videos already affecting public debate,
or meaningfully address the chatbot mental health crisis, or the
fact that it's stealing copyright that stuff from many people
in the arts and humanities. So this guy who was
writing for The Atlantic wasn't the only one to notice

(01:33:59):
how this disconnected. You had a keynote speech said, are
we having the wrong nightmares about aie. Part of the
reason that you have people like Sam Altman sell this
fear and paranoia about this science fiction take on all
this stuff is because he wants to get money from
the people he's talking to in Congress in the White House.

(01:34:22):
And you better clear the tests because this thing is
going to be so huge, it's going to take over
the world. And you want to be the one controlling
this monster. That's great. So you want to build a
monster and have it under your control. And so it
is self serving for them to do this, So they
ignore all of the immediate issues that we're already seeing,
the ones that are here, the ones that are imminent,

(01:34:42):
they ignore those and they focus on these massive science
fiction scenarios. Sociologists warned that the researchers are missing the
forest for the trees by focusing so much on the
risk posed by artificial general intelligence, a technology that we
don't don't even know will be possible to create and
for which there is no agreed upon definition. After someone

(01:35:06):
in the audience complained that the immediate risks were raised
like chatbot addition that were already known, he said, well,
I don't really see these discussions here. I keep seeing
people discussing mass unemployment versus human extinction, and so the
discourse around AI safety is often dominated by these apocalyptic

(01:35:28):
predictions in rhetoric. One guy who is considered to be
one of the three Godfathers of the AI. His name
is Bengeo. I think if I'm pronouncing that quickly. Who
also Jeffrey Hinton is another one, and the two of
them are talking about, oh, we're so sorry that we
created this thing, you know, and pushing this apocalyptic version

(01:35:50):
the end of the world type of deal. Benchio has
cast himself as an Oppenheimer like figure in the field, which,
just like Venheimer, regretted that he had participated in creation
of the nuclear bomb. In twenty twenty three, Benjo famously
said that he regretted his life's work after he quit

(01:36:11):
his role at Google. He said, it includes jobs, destruction,
and militarized AI systems that will further empire. And so
the Atlantic writer said that when you look at this
organization NeurIPS, he said it short for neural information processing systems,
it hearkens back to a time when scientists vastly underestimated

(01:36:34):
the complexity of our brains neurons and compared them to
the processing that was done by computers. And we're going
to take a break, and when we come back, that's
one of the things we're going to talk about. We've
got more general news to talk about when we come back,
but we're going to take a quick break. Do you
want to cover the comments traps before we go to breaker?
We can do when we come back.

Speaker 3 (01:36:53):
Yes, let's cover him right now as a miller one
two three.

Speaker 2 (01:36:57):
Thank you very much, so much.

Speaker 3 (01:36:58):
That is so generous, says Merry Christmas from a previous
FedEx driver. Lol. I hope your family feels the peace
and joy of Christ, the real meaning of the season.
Thank you for and I've got a scroll. Thank you
for your faithfulness, David and family.

Speaker 2 (01:37:12):
Well, thank you, thank you for your faithfulness. We see
the same people over and over again who support the program.
We really do appreciate our producers because they are the
ones who really produce this program. We couldn't do it
without their help, and so it's just a few people
who who help a lot like that. So thank you
very much.

Speaker 3 (01:37:31):
Yes, Nora, cal Country gallasys Anderson, California, population ten k
six point four square miles nine flock cameras and don't
frag me bro says Candice Owens were a CIA baseball
cap for an entire show. They flaunded in your face
and laugh at you.

Speaker 2 (01:37:51):
I just can't get into all of this prom queen
stuff that's going on between her and Erica Kirk and
the like. You know, I'm sure there's some things under
all of that. It's all politics, is all connected to
governments and everything, and it's all connected to setting up narratives.
There's big money, there's big agendas behind all this stuff.
But I am just so disgusted at what I see

(01:38:13):
with all of these influencers out there. I just don't
understand why people are hanging on every word of it.
And I got people who are upset with us because
of what we said about Candice Owen and again with
everything that's happening, you're going to focus on your own
internal you know, he said, she said stuff. I really
couldn't care less.

Speaker 3 (01:38:34):
Yeah, the right wing grift sphere has been having it's
been having a big.

Speaker 2 (01:38:39):
Fourth quarter a yeah, yeah, it's amazing.

Speaker 3 (01:38:42):
It's been nothing but infighting and backbiting and backstabbing and
a bunch of shady characters yelling at each other.

Speaker 2 (01:38:50):
Yeah yeah, yeah, from Nick finn Taste to Tucker Carlson
and Megan Kellen that I've got to use for any
of them, Steve Mannon, you know, it's just amazing to me.

Speaker 3 (01:39:02):
And we have Jim's seven. A local attorney, Tim Anderson
in Suffolk, Virginia has been winning cases where Suffolk has
been handing out tickets and work zones using cameras where
no work was taking place. So if you're in that
area of Suffolk, Virginia and you end up in some
sort of traffic dispute, maybe look up Tim Anderson.

Speaker 2 (01:39:20):
Yeah, that's good. Yeah, and it's amazing too. The troll
roads Keith and going through as the state and everything,
something's really been not only difficult but time consuming for
caring to do. He had a couple of toll road
tickets that he had. They do it all by camera.

(01:39:41):
They don't have the toll boosts anymore, and so because
he died, they got they were late, and so they're
escalating the imily like fifty bucks to go on a
road or something. That's absolutely insane. It's just absolutely crazy.
It's why it made me so upset to see Tillis
do that in North Carolina. North Carolina didn't have any

(01:40:03):
toll roads until he became Speaker of the House, and
he leapfrogged the people that had been head of the
Republican Party, a good guy that was out of the
Republican Party there for a long time, the minority leader,
and Tom Tillis came out of nowhere LeapFrog's this guy.
And then when they get the majority in twenty ten,
after the voters remorse of putting Obama in, he had

(01:40:28):
a big change in North Carolina. They've put this guy,
Tom Tillis in and Speaker of the House, and he
starts on all these toll roads for foreign country, foreign
government corporations that are running these toll roads, and the
next thing you know, they're running him for Senate, and
he's been a senator now for a while. He's going
to retire this year. But all that toll roads. So
that's why the same thing's happening here in Tennessee. Frank

(01:40:51):
Nicely was pushing back against that. That's Bill Lee that's
doing that here. So you can imagine that Billy is
going to get some kind of a payoff down the
road politically and economically. We're doing that type of thing.
We're gonna take a quick break, folks. We'll be right back.

Speaker 1 (01:42:11):
And you're listening to the David Night Show.

Speaker 11 (01:44:32):
In m h.

Speaker 1 (01:45:47):
You're listening to the David Knight Show.

Speaker 5 (01:45:53):
Whether you're feeling like the Boos or bluegrass ads radio
has you covered. Check out a wide variety of channels
on our app at aps radio dot com.

Speaker 7 (01:46:07):
That's right, boys and girls, there's a post election sale
on silver and gold. Trump euphoria has caused a tip
in silver and gold. It's time to buy some medals
with viat doors before they come to there. Since is
go to David Knight dot gold to get in touch

(01:46:29):
with the wise wolf himself, Tony Harterburn. He knows where
to look to find silver and gold.

Speaker 1 (01:46:43):
A little little.

Speaker 2 (01:46:47):
Yug fiot. Yeah, now I look at this from a
year ago. You know, when they come to their sense,
says and of gourse, isn't that interesting that Trump banned
the penny. You know he's gonna kill the penny. So yeah,
I guess we won't be coming to our sense as
But gold is loading at all time highs while volatility sleeps.

(01:47:08):
This is how squeezes start, says zero hedge. Again, this
is not zero hedge is not doesn't push gold because
they sell gold. I mean there's some you know, there's
there's websites out there that talk about bitcoin and all
this stuff is about bitcoin and crypto and things like that.
There's other sites like kitko that talk about gold and
silver all the time. But zero hedge is just looking

(01:47:29):
at investments, and as they look at it, they're looking
at at this as if it were chart which can
reflect the general consensus of people. But again, I don't
look at silver and gold because of that. I look
at it because of what's happening geopolitically economically, the massive

(01:47:50):
financial resets that are happening, the uncertainty, the end of
a fourth turning that is upon us, all of those things.
I think are the underlying factors of this, and so
they will look at this and saying, well, it's breaking
above the flag from early December. The all time high
is the obvious magnet. And we have seen the trend
line remain intact as well over the twenty one and

(01:48:11):
the fifty day intervals and so forth. Again, I don't
I'm not a chartist. Some people do that and they
make a lot of money doing that. I'm saying it
can't be done, but I'm just looking at the bigger
factors that are there. And we saw these factors last year,
even though everybody was the trend at the time, the
fad was we're going to get into crypto because look

(01:48:33):
at what Trump's going to do to make crypto sore.
I can tell you they're not talking about it, but
Trump is going to make gold sore because he's going
to He's going to make the he's going to make
the dollar sore sore. George Washington is going to be

(01:48:55):
hurting because he's going to put in a new Federal
Reserve chair and he's gonna start manipulating things the way
Trump wants them to be manipulated, which means that they're
going to do things like quantitative easing and cutting interest
rates and other games that they're going to play, which
is only going to accelerate the demise of the dollar
and increase inflation and increase interest rates. You know, every

(01:49:17):
time that they have by FIAT lowered interest rates, the
market reacts in the opposite direction. They say, well, that's
going to be inflationary. So the longer term interest rates
like automobile loans and especially home loans, we're going to
go up on the interest rates on those because people
are going to be paying us back with cheaper dollars.
So all this stuff backfires on them, and that's the

(01:49:39):
real thing to look at. By the way, this is
another interesting story, and it's an interesting story and a warning.
Although I don't think I'm not going to insulter intelligence
say that you would fall for the scam, but some
people do. You just need to always be careful, understand
that people always coming after you. But I think it

(01:50:00):
something else about gold, even versus cash. In this story,
an elderly man gave away his gold after a fake
US Marshall called, and he's not the only one. This
is a story from Epic Times. The coin shop owner
had seen his share of hefty deals, but this call
caught him off guard. An elderly man from nearby Snowflake,

(01:50:23):
Arizona wanted to purchase gold coins valued in the tens
of thousands. Did they call these people snowflakes who lived there? Anyway?
The next day, when the man walked into the shop
and show Low that's the name of the town, show

(01:50:43):
Low in I guess our district or something, his nervousness
was obvious. A man was clutching his phone, hanging on
to every word from a woman's voice that seemed to
be directing him. Before we sat down and talked about
the price or the product or anything else, he showed
me a one hundred and eighty thousand dollars cashier check

(01:51:04):
that he had already made out to me. And so
the shop owner thought, this is all kind of strange.
I haven't even talked about price or anything like that.
One hundred and eighty thousand dollars. You get into cashiers check,
and you're going to walk out here with that kind
of stuff. The man stumbled over basic questions. He was
anxious to speed through the sale. The shop owner's unease grew.
Was this overly customer being manipulated by some scammer. Taking

(01:51:28):
care not to alert the woman on the line, he
discreetly slipped the man a note asking if he needed help.
Certain now that something was amiss, he reached out to
the police. The FBI and other agencies quickly took up
the case. Two weeks later, they arrested a suspect and
they uncovered a complex scheme that had already stolen one

(01:51:48):
hundred thousand dollars in gold coins from the seventy nine
year old man. And this dealer, because he saw he
was suspicious something was happening, gave him a line, well,
it's going to take me a little bit of time
to get all that together because it's so large an order,
and that's probably what happened anyway. Known as the gold bar,
is a government impersonation scam. The scheme draws in unsuspecting elderly,

(01:52:13):
retirement age and vulnerable people. You should know if it's
somebody saying the calling from the government and they want
you to give them payment in gold, that might be
a tip off, because our government doesn't have any use
for real money. The scam often begins with people pretending
to be US government workers or law enforcement officers going

(01:52:34):
to the Ohio Department of Commerce, and January, local media
paid or rather said than an eighty nine year old
woman from Sylvania, Ohio lost more than a million dollars
in a similar scheme would have been cheaper for if
she had been a supporter of the show and listened
to the show anyway. A letter in the mail, an email,

(01:52:56):
or a phone call informs a victim that their identity
has been stolen and their bank or investment accounts are
in danger. Then the victim may be told that the
agency can protect their money for a short time if
they act fast. Again, this is a con game, very
similar to what the government does to us anyway. So yeah,

(01:53:19):
we'll protect you, don't worry about it. Where they're the scameras.
The scammers then convinced the person to buy gold, silver,
or other valuable metals and arrange for a courier to
pick them up, claiming that it will help to keep
them safe from theft. So, your identity has been stolen,
so get all your money out of the bank, convert
it to gold, and then give it to us for safekeeping.

(01:53:40):
That's the bottom line. Again, it's not very plausible. It's
not maybe as implausible as the scam where they told
the lady that she had to give them money because
an astronaut was running out of air stranded space station
and needed to buy oxygen. Remember that one tra having.

(01:54:00):
I don't know how that.

Speaker 3 (01:54:03):
Yeah, I'm not exactly sure what the plan was there.

Speaker 2 (01:54:06):
I was they gonna, where's he going to get the
occident from in space? He's running out of out of area,
He's got to buy some accident.

Speaker 3 (01:54:12):
We're going to send him a really long tube up.

Speaker 2 (01:54:15):
Send him some cans of Perry air. Remember that from spaceballs. Anyway,
scammers warned the victims, don't talk to anybody, the bank
or anybody else about what's happening, and you're threatening them
with legal trouble if they do. A single scheme might
utilize several different scammers to manipulate a victim, each of
them playing a different role, such as an employee at

(01:54:36):
a tech company, or a bank representative or a government worker.
In some cases, victims may be asked for funds to
avoid criminal charges or to prove good faith. Basically, this
is a very common scam, said the Snowflake police detective

(01:54:56):
Amity Tooth. Again, I would like to be idle to
fight as a snowflake police that theyctive that's the town
that he lives in.

Speaker 3 (01:55:04):
I'd have to vote to change the town name at
that point, I think.

Speaker 2 (01:55:09):
So, he said. Victims often go along with a scam
out of fear of arrest or false accusation, or because
they lack knowledge of the law. Now this is always
the case, right We get caught into these scams, like
the COVID scam or whatever, out of fear, out of
ignorance of the law. It's very easy for the real
government to intimidate us. Isn't it interesting that these scammers

(01:55:32):
would see that and then put on the moniker of
government because government is always scaring us, intimidating us, and
praying on our ignorance. So as they're investigating it, they said,
there was a woman with a foreign accent who identified
herself as Holly O'Brien. Yes, I am Holley, yes away

(01:55:58):
sounding kind of like a man too, I don't know,
but anyway, she told him that someone had stolen his
identity and used it to rent a car, which was
later left in El Paso, Texas. The caller then claimed
that police had found illegal drugs and blood in the
driver's seat of the car that belonged to him and
was that they rented in his name, and she warned

(01:56:18):
the men that he would be charged with a crime
unless he could prove his identity by sharing details about
his possessions, and so he did as he was asked.
Then he then he agreed to hand over one hundred
thousand dollars in gold coins from his private collection to
a courier on October twenty seventh. But they weren't finished yet.
They wanted to clean out his bank account, so they

(01:56:40):
told him to withdraw one hundred and eighty thousand dollars
out of his bank and buy more gold coins and
we'll come by and pick them up. I think that
they would have stopped at nothing. They would have ruined him.
They would have found some other way to continue to
extort money from the victim. The scams are a significant
national problems of the detective. These cash for gold scammers

(01:57:04):
often choose their victims at random. They cast a wide net,
They do thousands of coal calls, and finally they get
somebody who bites on it. Most people hang up or
don't answer, but one out of a thousand people believes them.
They're told to turn their assets into cash or to
buy gold, silver, or other valuable medals for safe keeping.
See scammers want gold. It's even more untraceable than cash.

(01:57:31):
You know, the cash some of it' Scott numbers on it.
The gold doesn't. In June, an Indian national living in
the US on a student visa pleaded guilty in a
case in which elderly victims lose hundreds of thousands of
dollars in cash and gold. According to a release from
the US Attorney's Office for the Western District of Texas,
Groove rashish Hi Mongoo Kiya, twenty one, I guess was sentenced.

(01:57:56):
I don't know. I'm probably murdering the pronounci of his
but that's fine. He's a crook, twenty one years old
here on a student visa, and he pleaded guilty in
Austin more and he's getting more than eight years in prison.
Pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit money laundering. And he

(01:58:17):
was ordered to pay more than two and a half
million dollars in restitution, which is unusual. Usually you don't
see restitution in these cases. That's one of the big
problems of our system. Another guy was Kashan Patel, not
Cash Patel. They don't like cash, they like gold. Speaking
of which, Bongino is packing his bags. He's going to

(01:58:39):
go back, they said, he's going to go back and
do a show again. But anyway, that's been in the
works for a while. Rumored about that for quite a while,
but now the rumors have become substantiate. He's gonna leave
as at the beginning of January. So this non cash
Pattel twenty years old, conspired with the same guy and

(01:59:01):
with others in the multimillion dollar twenty twenty four scheme.
According to the Department of Justice, he also pleaded guilty
and it is going to be serving more than five
years in prison. The group sent fake online messages and
imperson aided US government officials, while Patel, not the cash
matel who's impersonading an FBI director, collected cash and gold

(01:59:22):
from the victims, passed some of it to others in
the group, and kept some of it for himself. Again
the gold Patel. So I sat with the victim multiple times.
When he was on the phone with her. She would
talk to him and it was pretty noisy in the background.
So my assumption is that she works in a call center,
and the likelihood of the call center being in the

(01:59:44):
US is slim to none. I guess those are people
on the call center that are waiting for their H
one B visus to come through, so locally here. Well,
the OCC says that nine big banks took part and
approa debanking practices. Yeah, there are some risks in putting
your money in the bank at PayPal is now the

(02:00:10):
people who debanked me PayPal, now I want to be
a bank as that I should probably file a report
with the people who are reviewing them to give them
access to FDIC insurance. Because this is actually the Office
of the Control of the Currency. The OCC and the

(02:00:30):
Trump administration is looking at this because I mean, they
have personally suffered from this, so this is something that
is in their sites. On Wednesday, the Office of the
Control of the Currency released its report saying that it
had found conclusive proof that nine large banks and these
are the big banks, these are the big banks that

(02:00:51):
are too big to fail, too big to jail, that
they had policies that either refused services to some industries
or required higher levels of screw utiny that exceeded the
actual financial risk between twenty twenty and twenty twenty three.
And I'm telling you that this is not just industry wide,
this is individuals because I have suffered from it as well.

(02:01:12):
One of the banks on it was Bank of America.
They nearly cost us the ability to get this house
finance because it nearly ran out of time because of
the games that they were playing. You know, we'd had
a credit card playing with them for quite some time. Again,
we went back to our dealings with them, went back
to before the big merger when there was Nation's Make

(02:01:32):
in North Carolina and Bank of America California, and that
was rubber stamped during the Clinton administration made this really
big bank, and that was the thing that kicked off
all the big bank mergers. Even at the time that
people are pushing back against it, said you can't authorize that.
That's going to kick off a rash of mergers of
the biggest banks, and you're going to wind up with
a half dozen big banks, which we did and which

(02:01:55):
they then bailed out. But anyway, they played games with us.
In the course, we've seen that Bank of America doing
that to the people who were there on January the sixth,
Proud of the fact that they were giving the information
about where these people were based on their use of
their credit cards, gave it to the FBI to try

(02:02:16):
to indict these people, and then even going back and saying,
and we noticed in our history that these people have
also purchased guns in the pass. So these are people
who exercise their right to redress their grievances peacefully, and
they also under the First Amendment, and they also exercise
their liberties as recognized under the Second Amendment. So you

(02:02:37):
should go round these people up, said Bank of America,
absolutely reprehensible, but it's also JP Morgan as well as
Bank of America, City Bank, Wells Fargo, US Bank, Capital One,
pn C Bank, and TD Bank US. They're restricting access,
says the OCC the Office of Control of the Currency.

(02:02:59):
They're restricting access in numerous sectors including oil and gas exploration,
coal mining, firearms, private pensions, payday lending, tobacco and e
cigarette manufacturers, adult entertainment, and political action committees, as well
as digital assets. So if you're involved in these activities,

(02:03:20):
and or if you're involved in telling the truth about government,
big pharmaceutical companies and the lockdowns and stuff like that,
they'll also come after you for that. They've got a
long list of things they don't like and industries that
they don't like. Those that I just mentioned there. Most
of those fall into the ESG stuff, the environmental and
social governance. We don't like oil, we don't like firearms,

(02:03:42):
that type of thing. It's unfortunate that the nation's largest
banks thought that these debanking policies were in appropriate use
of their government granted charter and market power. While many
of these policies were undertaken in plain sight and even
announced publicly, certain banks have continued to insist that they're
not doing it. And of course we saw this famously

(02:04:05):
in the UK with Nigel Faraj when he got debanked,
and they kept denying that they did it until some
of the evidence turned up and it went all the
way up to the President of the Bank. The Bank
Policy Institute, which advocates for these banks, reacted to the
Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and said it's

(02:04:25):
in the bank's best interest to take deposits to lend
and to support as many consumers and businesses as possible.
But the industry supports fair access to banking and as
already working together with Congress and administration to ensure banks
are able to serve law abiding customers. Well, that's just
not the case, is it. As a matter of fact,

(02:04:46):
even with this stuff being exposed, Jamie Demon, the CEO
of JP Morgan, was really arrogant about the whole thing.
He told Fox News that the issue was mostly made
up and that the people concerned about it needed to
quote grow up. These bankers are scammers, just like the

(02:05:07):
government that works with them and their scammers. Just like
these people I talked about before. Look at what they
charge people with credit card. I mean talking about Christmas
time here, look at the credit card rates. It is
so criminal, it really is. I've said many times in
the past if I was going to run for office,
I would run. I would make that my lead issue.

(02:05:28):
Just like Andrew Yang made Universal Basic Income his lead issue.
I would make usury bank income that UBI. I would
make that my lead issue. I'm just outraged at when
I see this stuff, and you know, don't get in
a situation where you got to where you can't pay
the balance off each month. It's just insane. And that

(02:05:50):
they would be allowed to, you know, play charge twenty
thirty more, you know, whatever their rates are. They're really
high on these on these cards, and at the same time,
the banks will typically pay you a tiny fraction of
one percent interest. You talk about a skewed system like that.

(02:06:11):
It's absolutely criminal, and it used to be criminal. It's
criminal until we had that big wave of inflation that
happened in the late seventies. And at that time, interest
rates got up so high and inflation was high and
all the rest of stuff. So they swept away the
usery laws that had capped things at ten percent. Rather
than tying it to inflation rates or interest rates or anything,

(02:06:33):
they just got rid of it altogether. And that's why
you wind up with this K shaped interest rate. You know,
one of them being the rate that they pay you,
the other one being the rate that they charge you.
It is truly userss what they're doing, and it is
a criminal I think well, Americans could see up to
two thousand dollars refund next year, says the Soros soy

(02:06:56):
boy Scott Bessant. Our Treasury Secretary's not talking about stimulus check.
This is all based on the fact that, oh, yeah,
we cut taxes this year and most people haven't cut
their withholding, so they're going to get a tax refund
next year. So yeah, and that good news, I made

(02:07:17):
a government made the government an interest free loan an admission.
Really that Trump and Bestent are trying to make a
case about the economy. If the economy is as strong
as they're talking about, why do we need to have
a two thousand dollars tax refund or these other things
that they're promising us. They did promise that they might

(02:07:37):
throughout two thousand dollars in terms of rebates from the tariffs.
Wait a minute, so you're saying that the tariffs are
taxes and we need to be partially reimbursed with that.
What is all that about? And if the economy is
as strong as they're saying, I mean, nobody really needs
the money, do we. Treasurey Secretary of Scott Besson said
that working Americans are set to get very large refunds

(02:07:59):
next year as tax cuts were enabled and the Republican
backed one big beautiful bill, one big BS bill is
what this is set to go into effect. And what
he's saying is that if you're one of these categories
where they don't have taxes on tips or overtime, once

(02:08:20):
they remove that, you're going to see that you're going
to get some money back. Well, how many people fall
into that category anyway, after the refunds, they're worth holdings.
He's sort of likely to change next year, so they'll
see that they had they'll see a real increase in
wages as well as getting some money back. They will
change the withholding. So it's going to be great. The

(02:08:41):
bill was passed in July. Working Americans didn't change their withholding,
so they're going to be getting very large refunds in
the first quarter next year. Talk about pipe dreams, you know,
will taxes really go down now? Trump said his economic policies,
including his widespread tariffs on imports, are creating jobs, the
stock market, and attracting increased investment in the US. And

(02:09:04):
none of that is true. As a matter of fact,
it's not reducing imports in the United States. The imports
from China have gone up by twenty nine percent versus
a year ago. Last month, the Trump administration officials floated
the idea of sending out a two thousand dollars payment
to lower middle income workers that would be taken from

(02:09:26):
some of their windfall tariff income. Well, yeah, you're going
to see that right now. It's not needed though, because
now we've got an imaginary projected tax refund. All this
stuff is smoke, mirrors and lies. That's the reality. Got
a couple of comments, Sir Travis, Yes we do.

Speaker 3 (02:09:46):
James faith Way says, Hey, David, I was wondering when
are you going to have Tony Ardeburn back on to
talk about precious metals and the rise of silver. I
shop with your link, which is night Dot Gold.

Speaker 2 (02:09:56):
Yes, and Tony, we're still linked up and think Tony
is going to be back, and he's taking a little
bit of time because it's been you know, a lot
of stress and everything on his business terms of everything
changing so rapidly, so he's trying to get some things organized.
He's taken a little bit of a sabbatical, so he'll
be joining us again after the in the new year,

(02:10:17):
So in January, he's going to be back on the
regular schedule, and we hope to have him even do
the show some more because I like it when Tony hosts.
We got some good backup hosts that come on, so yes, yeah, he'll.

Speaker 3 (02:10:28):
Be pay in guard built too. Fantastic jobs when they
host and North American House Hippo says Highway four oh
seven in suburban Toronto probably cost Canadian fifty dollars to
drive the sixty or so miles at the rush hour.
That's fifty dollars Canadian per trip each time. Every time
round trip is Canadian one hundred dollars, no exaggeration.

Speaker 2 (02:10:50):
Yeah, once you start down this path and the usually
they'll put the tolls on and their small amount, right,
it's just a nuisance. And then they they make it
easier because we're just doing an automated license plate reader
thing or something. But I remember when they first put
the automated license plate readers out and they had toll
roads in the Netherlands, and the people in the Netherlands

(02:11:12):
were pushing back on it because they said, this is
a privacy violation. I mean, just this is you know,
where we have gone in the last thirty years, so
this is the early nineties, and think about how they
have rapidly normalized this and moved the overton windows so
that people accept all these types of things. The people
in Netherlands said, we don't want that kind of information

(02:11:32):
being kept on us. We don't want you knowing where
we're going and when we're going, and the basis of
them saying that was what had happened in World War
Two when the Germans came in. They came in so
quickly with blitzkrieg right that they were not able to
destroy records. The Dutch, you know, in the Netherlands, they
were so big on keeping records on everybody just because

(02:11:55):
they can. I guess, you know, it's what bureaucrats like
to do. They had the stuff on three by five
cards and they had them packed solid into drawers, and
so the Germans come in very quickly. They want to
destroy this stuff, so they don't know things about people ethnically, politically,
religiously and that type of thing. And they couldn't set

(02:12:16):
things on fire because it's like trying to light a log.
They were packed together so closely. So I say, we
don't want that, and they don't realize it. But the
Nazis that we have today, the technocrats have much easier
way to sort through all this stuff. I mean, even
when the Nazis got those three by five cards, they
had to set their manually go through it, and now

(02:12:38):
you can do it in an instant. That's what AI
superpower really is. So we're going to take a quick break, folks,
We'll be right back.

Speaker 2 (02:17:38):
Well, we talk about how the government is constantly dinging
us with fines and constantly surveilling us, and of course
I think part of that has always been speed cameras
and tickets on the highway and everything. There's a little
glimmer of hope here in Arizona. You got a state Rep.
Nick Kupper, retired Air Force veteran has An introduced a

(02:18:01):
bill that he calls the RAPID Act. They get acting
that for it, the Reasonable and Prudent Interstate Driving Act,
In other words, to take speed limits off on a
trial basis in certain areas. The legislation would allow higher
speeds on designated rural, interstate or intrastate segments while maintaining

(02:18:24):
tough penalties for dangerous driving. Again their version of the
Audubon Highway that might be more popular than Route sixty
six if they were to do that. The Rapid Act
accounts for that difference. He said. Most drivers can tell
the difference between a crowded city freeway and a wide
open stretch of rural interstate, and you can tell the
difference it. Let us raise speeds where it is safe,

(02:18:48):
and keep tough penalties for reckless driving, and update our
laws to reflect how people actually use the roads. He said.
When you look at Montana, they did this in nineteen nineties.
In Germany that has done this for ninety years, you
see a pattern. Most drivers tend to drive around eighty
miles an hour on their own when not presented with
a speed limit. The bill limits nighttime speeds to only

(02:19:11):
eighty miles per hour. You know, it used to be that.
I think they put speed limits on in Montana used
to not be there. And I remember when we about
twenty five years or so ago, we were driving through
there and I took a break and let Karen drive,
and she was going over one hundred miles an hour.
This cop pulls up, motions get over, you know, and

(02:19:33):
so it's like, she said, you told me there's no
speed limits here. And it's like, yeah, I didn't think
there was any speed limits. So we get pulled over
and he comes up, and I think it was because
of the car that we were driving. He thought maybe,
you know, it was out of state. The license said
it was. It was a Mercedes that we had at
the time, and I think he thought, well, these you know,
are these people legit? Are they criminals? Because I've had

(02:19:55):
a situation like that when we were moving my mom
and my sister. They both had Toyota cameras, and I
guess the guy thought it was unusual for there'd be
two cars driving late at night. They were exactly the same.
So he pulled us over just to kind of sniff around.
And of course there was nothing, and there was anything
with this guy, but he said, no, there's some construction
up I've had. You might want to saw it down
a little bit, you know, And he looked in the

(02:20:17):
back and Travison Lance were in the back and car
seats and stuff like that. But yeah, it was not dangerous.
You know, maybe you're a gas listening to the radio,
but it really wasn't. I mean, you know, it didn't
really even realize that she was going one hundred miles
an hour until the cop pulled up, and then she
looks at it as like, uh, oh, so anyway, but
now they do have a speed limit, but maybe Arizona

(02:20:39):
will wise up. The data out of Montana showed that
there were actually fewer fatalities in the D restricted speed
zones than in the speed limited zones out of an
abundance of caution. He said, I propose a one year
pilot on a segment of Interstate eight. They will be
chosen by the Arizona Department of Transportation Director and subject

(02:21:01):
to annual safety audits. Coupper City anticipates a decrease on
cash and crash and fatality rates, as it's been shown
that driver behavior such as seat belt use has a
more significant influence on these matters than the speed at
which drivers travel. And the Arizona legislature section opens on
January twelfth, so we'll see what happens with it. But

(02:21:23):
again that allow us to do that. I think we can.
I think we can handle it. PayPal is, as I
mentioned before, planning to launch a bank serving small businesses
around the US. And when I see this, I hear
Admiral Ackbar saying it's a trap and be very careful.

(02:21:46):
They're going to push this ESG or whatever the government
agenda du jour of the day is. They will use
that to debank you don't fall for it, but they
are going to pay people interest. They're going to have
interest bearing savings accounts. Imagine that a bank that will
actually pay people interest. They filed documents with the Utah

(02:22:07):
Department of Financial Institutions and with the FDIC in order
to launch the PayPal bank. And again, if they get
thea FDIC insurance coverage, they will get protection for It's
now up to two hundred and fifty thousand dollars per
depositor per bank account, so that'll be covered in case

(02:22:30):
they fall. But Trump is expected to sign an order
reclassifying marijuana as a Schedule three drug safe sources. So
it's interesting, you know, as he's pushing claiming that he's
got to have a war with Venezuela over drugs, he's
now moving to reschedule marijuana now. Of course, to put

(02:22:54):
it as a Schedule three drug is not to remove
prohibitions of it. Those are still controlled sub And the
other question people should be asking themselves is where did
these schedules come from. You may think that they came
from Richard Nixon, but they didn't. The drug war came
from Richard Nixon.

Speaker 4 (02:23:13):
But the.

Speaker 2 (02:23:15):
Drugs that we have that was produced by the UN.
As a matter of fact, this whole war on drugs
is a globalist agenda. Richard Nixon was not a conservative.
He was a globalist. For crying out loud, he had
Henry Kissinger was a guy that was basically running his
administration and he opened everything up to China. Doesn't that
tell people something about Richard Nixon. While the plan is

(02:23:38):
for the order to be signed today, the timing could shift.
The order is expected to reclassify marijuana from Schedule one
to Schedule three drug. Schedule one drugs apply to substances
with no quote currently accepted medical use and something that
has a high potential for abuse. That includes other Schedule

(02:24:00):
one drugs are there are heroin, LSD and ecstasy in
addition to marijuana, And so you know, we look at
heroin and LSD. Wait a minute, that's all CIA is
all over that stuff. I don't know anything to do
with ecstasy. But when you look at heroin and these
other things, LSD that's there. You know, going back to

(02:24:25):
to Sydney Gottlieb, maybe we should prohibit the CIA instead
of drugs. The biggest drug gang that's out there. Schedule
three for substances with moderate to low potential for physical
and psychological dependence. That would lump in marijuana with things
like codeine. You know, because when you go pick up
some cough syrup that has codine in it, you have

(02:24:48):
to give them your ID and all the rest of
the stuff and they have to report it to the government.
Testosteron anabolic steroids and ketamine. So I don't know. I
guess maybe if the ketamine is controlled like that. I
don't know anything about it. I just know that it's
a favorite of elon musk. Moving the drug to a
lower schedule would not change the fact that it remains

(02:25:10):
illegal for recreational use at the federal level, but it
could open up the door to more research into marijuana
and expanded medical uses that might also lower the tax
burden for state licensed marijuana dispensaries and dozens of states
where it is legal, and it is dozens of states.
Medical marijuana is now legal in forty states and the

(02:25:35):
District of Columbia. And so this is done. And here's
the interesting thing you should think about. Marijuana legalization is
one of the best examples of states using their Tenth
Amendment recognized powers. The Tenth Amendment doesn't give states powers. No,
it recognizes the fact that the federal government was a

(02:25:56):
creation of the states.

Speaker 1 (02:25:59):
Right.

Speaker 2 (02:26:00):
Our rights don't come from the Bill Rights. Our rights
don't come from government. If they did, they be called privileges.
Our rights come from God. There are is on the
basis of us being humans, not even on the basis
of us being citizens. And the powers that the federal
government has are delegated to it by the states, not
the other way around. That's what Trump and the current

(02:26:23):
politicians of both parties are trying to convince you that
all power belongs to the federal government and they allow
the states to have certain powers. That's not true at all.
And this is a good example of it, in defiance
of the federal War on drugs, which again they're just

(02:26:45):
a surrogate for the UN agenda. And I remember when
I didn't know that for the longest time, and I
thought it was outrageous and intrusive that the UN would
get very upset. It's like California, one of the first
states that legalized medical marijuana, got the UN very upset

(02:27:06):
and they put out a statement about it. It's none
of their business. They can't enforce any of this stuff.
And then when I was talking to law enforcement against phibition,
they pointed out that, yeah, it came from the UN
in the first place, and so this whole drug war
is a UN program. That's enough reason right there to

(02:27:28):
push back against the drug war. But we have a
lot more reasons as well. And so you have forty
states that didn't just reclassify it to Schedule three drug.
They just said no, you know, you can use it
for medical use. And I don't know how many states
have legalized it now for recreational use, but that is

(02:27:50):
a nullification of state law of federal law rather, and
one of the reasons why the federal government has not
had this legal fight with them is they're running this
entire drug war on a bluff. They don't have the
legal authority on the constitutions. You've heard me say many times.
The eighteenth Amendment in the Constitution testifies to the fact

(02:28:14):
that everybody in the country realized that they needed to
go through the extra steps of amending the Constitution in
order to prohibit alcohol, and so we have the eighteenth
and the twenty first Amendment to prohibit it, to relegalize
it testify to the fact that it's not something that
the Commerce Department can do, and so Iriwana has been

(02:28:36):
deemed a Schedule one drug since classifications were created in
nineteen seventy, created by whom by the UN. However, most
states have approved the drug for certain medical uses, and
twenty four states have legalized the drug recreationally. There we go,
twenty four states. The state policies technically clash with federal law.

(02:28:57):
This article from CBS is not going to point out
that this is nullification. They're not going to point out
the constitutional issues of this. They're not going to point
out the powers that the states have retained. None of
that's going to be pointed out with any of this stuff.
And you know, when we look at Texas, Texas is
a good example. There was a great state Rep in Texas.

(02:29:19):
I interviewed him several times, David Simpson. He was the
guy who pushed back against the TSA. And he was
the one who came up when the TSA started doing
the body scanners and the pat downs the kids and
everybody else. He pushed back on that. And in the
state House where he introduced the bill, they unanimously said,

(02:29:40):
we want the TSA to stop that in Texas, and
then it went to the Senate and it was stopped
in the Senate by the Lieutenant governor who used to
work for the CIA, and then the CIA set him
up and made him a billionaire in the oil business.
And he had spent more money to buy his way
into that office than anybody ever had in Texas. And

(02:30:02):
so he stopped it in the Senate. And then David
Simpson tried it again, and again it passed in the House,
but not with as many votes. It wasn't unanimous that
the second time, and they stopped it in the Senate again.
The reason I bring that up is because he was
the real deal. This guy was a real conservative menium,

(02:30:23):
short hair, clean cut guy, always wore a cowboy hat.
He was a seventh generation Texan. I really admired him,
a great guy. And he also brought up the bill
to allow certain medical condition one particular medical condition, and
that is uncontrolled seizures. And you had some families in

(02:30:46):
his jurisdiction that had tried everything that you know, Rockefeller
Medicine had for these seizures, these uncontrollable seizures. Nothing were
and the pharmaceutical companies sell an extract from marijuana that

(02:31:07):
supposedly helps and maybe it does help some people, but
it wasn't helping these kids. Colorado had legalized it for
medical use, and so they could go to Colorado and
they could get it, but if they brought it back
to Texas, where they lived and where they were not
ready to move to Colorado, if they brought it back
to Texas, they were in danger of going to jail

(02:31:28):
for a very very long time because it's a Class
one drug. And so he got an exception put in
for that, and he in Texas where they didn't I
don't know if they've legalized medical marijuana now or not,
but at the time they didn't recognize. They didn't have
marijuana legalized medically except for that one thing. And they said,

(02:31:51):
if you've tried all of these other things, and you've
got a doctor's note saying that you've tried all these
other things and your kid still is having these uncontrolled caeizures,
then will allow you to go through all the burdensome
steps to be able to get this stuff. So that
was something of a victory. Later on, he just went
through and he said, he put up a billity he said,
let's just strike marijuana. This is a bill to strike

(02:32:12):
marijuana from being mentioned anywhere in Texas law. He said,
God created it and we should not be regulating it.
Any natural substance like that shouldn't be prohibited by Again,
this is not something that's being brewed or distilled or
anything like that. It's just a natural substances there. And
that did not pass. But I really admired him for

(02:32:35):
his principles. He's another one of these guys like Frank Nicely.
Every once in a while you find a state rep.
That that's a good guy. I believe it's time to
end the needless arrests and the incarceration of adults for
small amounts of marijuana for personal use. We must also

(02:32:57):
implement smart regulations while providing access for adults to safe
tested product, said the Trump administration in a statement. Well,
I think it's also time maybe that you stop murdering
people the pretense that they are carrying drugs off the
coast of Venezuela. How about that, you know that's where
this we're on drug eventually is going to lead or

(02:33:21):
been saying it for the longest time. That is the
natural progression of all this stuff. Your phony drug war,
and so when you look at it, they said, well,
it's going to allow them to do some research on
this that we couldn't do before because the universities or
other companies, of course, they don't have any financial incentive

(02:33:44):
to show that marijuana works for these types of things.
And one of the things that was really bad about
that whole situation was, at the same time reporting on
the fact that these children could not get any help
from their constant seizure. I'm also aware of in reporting
the fact that that happens to many kids as a

(02:34:06):
reaction to vaccines. So the pharmaceutical industry out there vaccinates
the kids, they wind up some of them having these
uncontrolled seizures, and then if the parents try to use
something that's natural, that grows naturally, then they get locked up.
What an injustice that is. And you know most of

(02:34:29):
that is still in place, but many people so well,
you haven't proved, you haven't done any tests, and so forth.
It's like, oh, yeah, you mean, like your pharmaceutical tests
of vaccines, they're supposed to tell us how safe and
effective they are. These fraudulent studies that you run, Well,
nobody's going to spend the money to do a study
on marijuana because there's no profit in it for them.

(02:34:51):
They only do that if it's something that they can patent,
and so there's no center for it. But any academic
organizations that might do it out of purely academic interest
because it was a Schedule one drug, it's very difficult
for them to do that anyway. And so they're saying
that might help for them to determine some of these

(02:35:11):
things as to whether or not they are safe or effective.
So we shall see. Well, Donald Trump was offered two
hundred and fifty million dollars to run for a third term,
reports Newsweek. Guess who it was. It was Miriam Addelson
and the same one who flew back Jonathan Pollard, the

(02:35:32):
trader that Trump pardoned, and she flew him back on
her plane. He got out and kissed the ground in
Israel and he was met by nt Yahu. And so
this was at a ceremony around Hanukkah and Trump called
on her to address the guests that were gathered there

(02:35:53):
during the speech. The billionaire Millam Addelson again a billionaire
just like Trump, well not like Trump, I mean, Sheldon
Adilson was able to run a casino for a profit.
He didn't bankrupt six casinos. He became a multi billionaire
by running his casinos. So he's obviously smarter than Trump.

(02:36:17):
And Trump is now his lackey, his employee. Although he's dead,
it's his widow. He's got his money. During her speech,
the billionaire said that she had discussed the legality of
Trump's third term with Alan Dershowitz, and then the people
in the audience started chanting four more years. Then the
pair embraced Trump and Miriam Maddelson before Trump returned to

(02:36:40):
the microphone and said she said, think about it. I'll
give you two hundred and fifty million dollars, and the
audience began to laugh, and then Adilson said, I will
give it.

Speaker 3 (02:36:50):
Now.

Speaker 2 (02:36:50):
Imagine this. Imagine if Trump was speaking at a trade organization,
let's say, Pharmaceutical bit or something. Right, We'll give you
two undred fifty million dollars if you run again. You've
been so good for our business and all the rest
of this stuff. People would say, wait a minute, why
are the corporations buying presidents like that? Isn't there something

(02:37:14):
wrong with that? And yet it's not the CEO of
a large corporation. It is somebody who is supporting a
foreign government, somebody who supported one of the worst traders
we've ever had in this country. And so when you
look at it, this is not just a bribery. It's
not just that President Trump is actually a little puppet

(02:37:35):
for these people. He actively courted that he's such a
prostitute that he was soliciting all of this stuff when
he ran for office. Remember when he said, you know,
it used to be that Israel owned Congress, and rightfully so,
he said, rightfully so, why should any foreign nation own Congress.

(02:37:57):
It's supposed to be owned by the American people. And
so he said, remember when Israel owned Congress? And rightfully so.
But they don't anymore. You need me, I'll do it
for you. Right He's out there prostituting himself. He's soliciting
money from these people who are more than willing to
give him the money. He just says the open part
right out loud, and he absolutely is a prostitute. Steve

(02:38:21):
Bannon has repeatedly claimed that there is a plan to
get him to remain in the White House. In the election.
In twenty twenty eight, forty five percent of Trump voters
do not want him to take office again forty three
percent do Another eleven percent of the Trump voters said
they weren't sure about it at all. Well, I think
the constitution is pretty clear. Steve Bannon, however, says, well,

(02:38:44):
he's going to get a third term. Trump is going
to be president in twenty twenty eight, and people just
ought to get accommodated to that. Again, these are people
who have absolutely no regard for what the constitution or
the rule of law says. So I can understand why
he would say that and why it might be a thing, right,
because Trump's mode of operation this is just to do
whatever he wishes and to defy people. He defies the Constitution,

(02:39:08):
then he defies you to stop him somehow, and so
I could see that he would do that. And they
have a political science professor that Newsweek quoted who said, well,
the truth is that there is some technical ambiguity in
the constitutional statutes, potentially some way to circumvent the restriction.
But the intention, especially when the twenty second and the
twelfth amendments are taken together, the intention is clear presidential

(02:39:33):
terms should be limited to two and even if Trump
can find some pack to allow him to seek a
third term, it'll be controversial. He better believe it will be.
But maybe he'll just declare an emergency and say it's
an emergency, I can do whatever I wish, because he
defies the Constitution that way over and over again and
dares you to stop him. The reality is, though, is

(02:39:57):
that he is going to be term limited by God.
All of us are actually, but you know, kind of
like Darth Vader Ginsburg, or you had Diane Frankenstein or
Glitch McConnell. These people who have to be carried out
feet first out of government. That's the way that Trump is.

(02:40:18):
That is a real tell. I think it is not
the spirit of George Washington, who when he willingly set
the example by just two terms that I'm out. I'm
going to go back to the real world. Here. He
was hailed by the King of England as the greatest
man alive for doing that. I can't say that about Trump,

(02:40:40):
can you? For all the terrorist stuff that he's doing.
Just take a look at this article from Reason. Thanks
thanks to anti trust officials, I robot will now be
acquired by a Chinese robotics firm instead of by Amazon.
So you have a trust officials in the US and

(02:41:01):
in the EU said we're not going to prove that,
and so it's better for China to have all manufacturing,
which is what these people have been doing. Everything has
been handed to them on a silver platter, I should say,
a lump of coal. They're allowed to build the cheap
energy facilities that they need to do manufacturing. And if

(02:41:22):
you can't be competitive on energy costs, you can't be
competitive on manufacturing. And that's just one aspect of what
has been handed to China on a silver platter. The
only thing the FTC and the European Commission succeeded in
doing was to transfer ownership of I robot from an
American company to a Chinese one. So think about that,

(02:41:44):
and that's really what is happening now with the tariffs.
The tariffs are not working the way Trump and his
failed Democrat politician Peter Navarro thought that they would. I robot,
the creator of Rumba, filed for bankruptcy on Sunday. If
Amazon had been allowed to acquire the company in twenty
twenty two, consumers likely would have enjoyed improved quality and

(02:42:06):
lower prices. But now, thanks to anti trust regulators, I
robot will be acquired by a massive Chinese robot vacuum
manufacturer instead of by American owned Amazon, and so I
guess that sucks, right, Yeah, Power horbes a vacuum. So

(02:42:30):
I guess you could explain it that way with these
the federal government the EU power abhors a vacuum, and
they certainly did abhoor the Roombo vacuum. The deal alarmed
anti trust regulators in the US and the EU, however
not in the UK. They declared that the transaction would
be okay and it wouldn't be a competitive concern in
the markets. And again it was already a very competitive market.

(02:42:53):
I mean, there's a lot of competitors to the room
but Robot and have been for some time. The British economy, however,
is only about a tenth the size the American economy
and only a fifth the size of the EU's economy,
so it was not viable if they can only do business,
for example, in the UK. So again you want to

(02:43:14):
talk about monopoly, Our governments have handed the monopoly of
basically all manufacturing to China. When you look at the
China price of intellectual property, theft of cheap slave labor,
and now they've added to it, and then currency manipulation,
but then they've now added to it. I think the
most important factor, and that is very cheap available energy.

(02:43:39):
So as we're looking at these failed policies, Customs and
Border Patrol has brought in a record two hundred billion
dollars from terrifts. Now, this in and of itself, I
think is outrageous because when I went back and looked
at if I remember correctly, it's a couple of weeks ago,
I went back and looked at what the biggest tax

(02:44:01):
increases in history were. FDR had the biggest tax increases
you could imagine, and if it was adjusted into today's
devalued dollars, it will be about two hundred billion. And
that's what the tariffs have done. So these are FDR
level tax increases that Trump is imposed on us. And

(02:44:22):
besides that, though it's even worse. It's not just the
monetary aspect of it or the money. This is creating
chaos and havoc for businesses small and large in America,
and it has raised prices for consumers as well. This
on again, off again, the constantly changing and shifting tax parties,

(02:44:46):
because he's just putting them on in whatever mood he's in.
If he gets upset with some government one evening, then
the next day they got tariffs slapped on him. We've
seen this happen over and over again. And according to UCBP,
the revenue was collected from January twentieth to December of
the fifteenth, after the implementation of more than forty executive orders.

(02:45:13):
This is not the way it's supposed to work. Congress
has the power to tax, and of course they're not
going to call Trump on this because they are afraid
of him in the Republican Party. And so the lucky
loser who bankrupted six casinos in his failed Democrat Soros advisor,

(02:45:36):
you know, the his Soros advisor Besset and his failed
Democrat Peter Navarro. This is a scheme that they've come
up with. But as bad as that is, raising taxes
by two hundred billion dollars and then boasting about it
like it's better for the government to have that money
than for the consumers and the businesses to have that money. Great, well,

(02:45:59):
Trump is now saying it's eighteen trillion, and Reason says
there's absolutely no way that that is possible. I mean,
first of all, I just told you his slightly over
two hundred billion and slightly over it's like two and
thirty six billion, So thirty six billion is not anything
to ignore. But still rounding out these numbers. But that's

(02:46:22):
a long way from eighteen trillion. He's telling people it's
about one hundred times bigger than it really is. It
is the big lie. And how do you get people
to believe the big lie? Well, you repeat it over
and over and over again. And as a matter of fact,
he has repeated it over and over again. As Reason
points out, he has given this eighteen trillion dollar figure.

(02:46:45):
He has repeated that now at least five times, and
they give the dates on which he said it. He
first used the eighteen trillion dollar figure during a cabinet
meeting in December the second, then he repeated it during
comments to reporters December the third, Then in an interview
with on December the eighth. He also brought it up,
unprompted and somewhat bizarrely during the announcement on December fourth

(02:47:06):
of a new peace treaty that aimed to end hostilities
between Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. On Sunday,
Trump brought it up again while speaking to reporters in
the White House. He said, because of the tariffs, we've
taken in more than eighteen think of this, more than
eighteen trillion. There's never been anything like it, And then
moments later he repeated the claim, we took in more

(02:47:30):
than eighteen trillion and ten months. Well, the reality is
is that if this is somebody who's going to lie
about the number of people that he killed with the
Trump shots, if he's going to boast about the Trump shots,
and if he's going to take tens of millions of

(02:47:51):
people that he killed and even more that he disabled
and then say that he saved millions of lives, he'll
lie about anything, And of course it doesn't have to
even be close to the truth. So this is factually
wrong and it is logically absurd, they pointed out. And
yet you've got some conservative media personalities out there who

(02:48:13):
are trying to make excuses for him and say that, well, no,
what are you saying is actually true? So how are
they doing that? What kind of lies are they telling
you to try to make a case that there's eighteen
trillion dollars of stuff here? Well, they said, over the
first eleven months of this year, the federal government collected
two hundred and thirty six billion in tariffs and duties.

(02:48:35):
And that's what the Treasury Department is saying, that's what
the Customs and Border Patrol people are saying in their
monthly reports. That is a huge difference two and thirty
six billion versus eighteen trillion, but it still represents the
biggest tax increase since nineteen ninety three, denominated in dollars,
not denominated in purchase price, if you account for the

(02:48:58):
devaluation of the dollar. It goes back to FDR and
Trump's tariffs are expected to generate about two point three
trillion dollars over the next decade. That's the Trump administration's figures.
What he's basically saying is that if these tariffs were
to stay in effect, you know, for the next decade,

(02:49:21):
two point three trillion, Well, he's talking about ten times that.
So what he's saying is that he took in the
amount that they project they would take in over a century,
not a decade, but over one hundred years, because it's
ten times that amount. But getting eighteen trillion dollars in
tariff revenue in a single year is impossible. The US

(02:49:41):
only imported about three point three trillion dollars of goods
last year, and you'd have to tax those imports at
six hundred percent in order to get eighteen trillion dollars
in new tariff revenue. Of course, if you taxed imports
at that level, you would end up with roughly the
same amount of imports as tariff revenue, which is zero.

(02:50:01):
You would bring it all to a stop. Part of
the confusion here lies in the carelessness with which the
President uses phrases like we took in. I don't think
that's careless at all. I think it's a very deliberate
and studied ambiguity that he's pushing out on people. We
took an end seems to be referring not to tax
revenue from the tariffs, but a combination of tax revenue

(02:50:25):
and various investment deals that have been promised by private
businesses and by foreign governments. And understand that even that
doesn't get you there. But understand that these promises have
been laughable in the extreme. Remember when he was talking
to the European Union, and I think it was Ursula

(02:50:46):
fond of lying, who strung him along, and he was
happy to go along with it, talking about how much
investment the EU is going to make in the US, Well,
the EU doesn't have anything that it makes Those that
all be private companies in the eupa union. And if
you looked at the dollar figure that was thrown out there,
it was patently absurd. It was more than these companies

(02:51:07):
had to invest in a given year.

Speaker 1 (02:51:09):
So all a lie.

Speaker 2 (02:51:10):
Everything about it was a lie. Audi is absolutely right,
it's all a lie, and that's the name of this podcast.
But there was absolutely no way that A she was
gonna she had the control of those it was nothing
under her control. And b it was more than all
of these private companies invest I think in all their

(02:51:33):
foreign investments combined, and more than they had to invest.
So none of that was going to happen. And that's
the point they make, is that a lot of these
things are just promised by big businesses or by foreign
governments and they haven't taken in anything they've been taken
if they weren't willingly going along with it. The only

(02:51:54):
people have been taken in have been the MAGA people
listening to these MAGA influencers. So most of these funds
have not been received by the federal government in any way.
If they are to be invested, they are fully private,
and these foreign governments don't have any more control over

(02:52:15):
that kind of investment than Trump does, and so they
were absurd multiples of reality anyway. And then in April,
the White House launched a website tracking the Trump Effect.
So here we are. So if you're going to make
that case, and you're going to say, well, that includes
all the tariff revenue, but it also includes all the
investment promises that are going to happen here. They're going

(02:52:37):
to build all these different factories there which haven't been
built and haven't been started yet, so it hasn't been
taken in. But even if you include that, and they
do have on their website, they are tracking what they
want to call the Trump Effect, meant to track the
quote new investment in US manufacturing, technology, and infrastructure since

(02:52:58):
Trump returned off US and by their own tally, by
their own inflated tallly, that comes up to nine point
six trillion, So it's still double what his own website says.
Absolutely amazing. The guy is the most childish liar. I

(02:53:20):
just take a look at his new ballroom right that
ballroom project how long ago did that happen? Was that
like two or three months ago? It began as a
two hundred million dollar.

Speaker 3 (02:53:30):
Construction, not too long before the Kirk shooting, because you remember.

Speaker 2 (02:53:34):
He so was that in September. I don't remember when
the Kirk It might.

Speaker 3 (02:53:37):
Have started in August, but maybe September, because you remember
Charlie Kirk got shot and he said, oh, yes, Verry said,
look at my ballroom where it's going to go.

Speaker 2 (02:53:45):
Yeah, thank you for reminding me. Yeah. So you know,
it's just a couple of months ago it was two
hundred million, and then it was about a month ago
it was three hundred million. Now he's just said it's
four hundred million. This thing is starting to look like
a California mass transit project. So now four hundred million.

(02:54:07):
And he says, for one hundred and fifty years, they
wanted a ballroom, and we're giving.

Speaker 1 (02:54:10):
It to them.

Speaker 2 (02:54:12):
Who is the they who wanted this? I don't ever
recall any of the founding fathers. I guess it was
a Madison. After he did the Bill rights, he said, yeah,
well I got the bill rights through, but what we
really wanted was a ballroom.

Speaker 3 (02:54:24):
I don't know, maybe isn't some of those lesser known
Jeffersonian letters or something like that.

Speaker 2 (02:54:29):
Yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 3 (02:54:30):
Yeah, but Trump I was able to get rid of
the tax man, but sadly we weren't able to put
a ballroom onto the White House. It's my greatest regret.

Speaker 2 (02:54:38):
That's right. Well, he is a one man party, isn't he.
I mean, he's taking over the GOP and they do
whatever he wishes. Nobody talks back to him, So he's
the one man party.

Speaker 3 (02:54:47):
But well, with Jeffy Epstein gone, there's no one to
party with.

Speaker 1 (02:54:49):
That's right.

Speaker 2 (02:54:50):
It really is a one man party. So he's got
to have a ballroom. Maybe he can find another Jeffrey
Epstein and one of these balls that they're having. But
to show you what a childish idiot he is, he
set up this Walk of fame he called it, where
he put up portraits of the president's right and now
he has spent your tax money making what looks to

(02:55:11):
be metal plaques. And the stuff that he's put on
these plaques is just a joke. It's foolishness, it's clownish stuff.
Maybe he's going to do some mocking sculptures of them
next who knows, but he put it out there in metal,
and it is pure idiocracy. White House staff updated the
so called Presidential Walk of Fame Wednesday by adding lengthy

(02:55:34):
descriptions of each former president and rhetoric. The lines are trumps,
such as calling Joe Biden the worst president in American
history and calling him sleepy Joe. Trump set his well
known opinions of each of the former presidents in stone,
actually in metal, I think by adding these plaques underneath
the portraits that now hang along the colonnade where he

(02:55:55):
put up a picture of the autopen instead of of
Joe Biden, that kind of, you know, childish meme trolling.
It's not even funny, really, Caroline Love. It's always left
to her to try to cover up for this clown
and make him sound reasonable in some way, she said.
The plaques are eloquently written descriptions of each president and

(02:56:18):
the legacy that they left behind. As a student of history,
many were written directly by the president himself. I wonder
what grade he got in history. So here's an example.
Sleepy Joe was by far the worst president in American history.
Puts us on a plaque taking office As a result,
of the most corrupt election ever seen in the United States.

(02:56:40):
In Obama's description, he says he passed the highly ineffective
Unaffordable Care Act, resulting in his party losing control at
both Houses of Congress and the election in the largest
House Republican majority since nineteen forty six. For Bill Clinton,
he writes, he attributed the legislative successes to through Republicans

(02:57:00):
in Congress quote unquote, and he boasted that Trump terminated
the North American Free Trade Agreement, the trade deal that
was struck under Clinton. He said, also included a line
about how Hillary Clinton lost to him in the twenty
sixteen election a clown, a narcissist. What a joke this

(02:57:21):
all is. And again he doesn't have any criticism, interestingly
enough of George H. W. Bush, who if you remember
both Bush and Bush the first and Bill Clinton wanted NAFTA.
It was only Ross Prow that was pushing back against
it at the time. Reagan, known as the Great Communicator,
said he was re elected in a landslide in eighty

(02:57:42):
four and left office with high approval. He was a
fan of President Donald J. Trump long before President Trump's
historic run for the White House. Likewise, President Trump was
a fan of his quote unquote, this is the kind
of idiotic dribble that he had put on metal plaque,
and he's got hanging there on that walkway there. Under Nixon,

(02:58:04):
he wrote one of the greatest political comebacks in American history,
and he won the largest popular vote history victory and
American history. He left out the part that he created EPA,
that he ended gold, that he had wage and price controls,
that he opened up to China, that he imposed a
fifty five mile hours speed limit on everybody, and that
he created that started the drug war. Yeah, how about

(02:58:27):
all that stuff? And then he gave props to Gerald
Ford for his quote brave pardon of Richard Nixon, the
kind of thing that Trump was not brave enough to
do for the January six people. He knew, you know,
it was brave because gerald Ford knew he's going to
take a lot of political heat for it. Trump didn't
want to take the political heat for the j sixers

(02:58:49):
that he had used and thrown under the bell.

Speaker 1 (02:58:51):
Brave for pottering that crook Richard Nixon.

Speaker 3 (02:58:53):
So you January six ers going to prison?

Speaker 11 (02:58:57):
Strange?

Speaker 2 (02:58:59):
Yeah, So this is what he's doing with all this
stuff he talked about President Bush, George W. Bush said
he created the Department of Homeland Security, but he started
wars in Afghanistan, I Rock, both of which should not
have happened. Shortly before the end of his administration, a
global financial crisis and major recession took place. So Trump

(02:59:22):
likes homeland security because he's an authoritarian, right, But he doesn't.
But he criticizes him for the rest of the stuff
that he did. And under JFK's plaque, he said he
had the failed Bay of Pigs, invasion of Vietnam War.
Can you imagine how long the list of failures will
be for Donald Trump when he finally gets his plaque.

(02:59:46):
Maybe what we would put under it just a quote
attributed to Buzz Lightyear, the former astronaut, to stupidity and beyond.
That's really the Trump administration. So that's it for today.
Thank you for joining. Yes, have a good day. I
wish I had a Christmas Night album.

Speaker 12 (03:00:08):
