19
00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:49.719
show today. I can't wait.
January first has become one of my favorite

20
00:02:49.800 --> 00:02:54.599
days, partly or almost mostly because
I get to watch the Rose Parade,

21
00:02:54.680 --> 00:02:58.520
but now I get to add to
it because I get to be with you

22
00:02:59.159 --> 00:03:01.520

much in store. I want to invite

know what you thought of today or
if there are any issues that you think

38
00:04:08.639 --> 00:04:13.560
might be pertinent regarding you or your
neighbor's liberty, your or your neighbor's liberty,

39
00:04:14.159 --> 00:04:15.920
that would be great. I'm always
looking for information. I try to

40
00:04:15.959 --> 00:04:21.000
make sure that the Liberty Conspiracy Show
is a daily opportunity to give you news.

41
00:04:21.160 --> 00:04:26.600
You can always find it in my
Twitter feed and on my Sunday morning

42
00:04:26.839 --> 00:04:30.600
Sunday News Assembly at my substack,
which is of course Gardner Goldsmith Substack.

43
00:04:30.759 --> 00:04:35.160
Let's find out what's going to be
on tap for today New Year's Day,

44
00:04:35.240 --> 00:04:40.920
twenty twenty four on the David Night
Show. Well, and with our background

45
00:04:41.120 --> 00:04:44.720
of the Dragon that they put out
a couple of years ago, and the

46
00:04:44.800 --> 00:04:47.079
Rose Parade. I actually take still
shots of the Rose Parade, that's how

47
00:04:47.120 --> 00:04:50.439
much I like it. I lived
in Pasadena when I worked at a television

48
00:04:50.439 --> 00:04:55.879
show in Los Angeles, and I
just love the Rose Parade. And I've

49
00:04:55.920 --> 00:04:59.600
never even seen it in person,
but I walked that street, Colorado Boulevard

50
00:04:59.639 --> 00:05:02.160
many time. Today on the program, I'm going to be taking a look

51
00:05:02.480 --> 00:05:08.720
at the big chapters, the big
stories from twenty twenty three in the ongoing

52
00:05:08.720 --> 00:05:13.240
Book of History. New chapters coming
in all the time, so we haven't

53
00:05:13.279 --> 00:05:16.160
exactly closed the book, but we
close new chapters and start new ones.

54
00:05:16.399 --> 00:05:21.000
We're going to be looking at the
war, a big story in Ukraine,

55
00:05:21.120 --> 00:05:27.120
and the war a big story in
Gaza. And how is the South African

56
00:05:27.160 --> 00:05:30.600
government in the mix? Well,
we'll talk about that. We'll also discuss

57
00:05:30.639 --> 00:05:39.519
the Biden administration slipping out new fascist
regulation news. They did it holiday style,

58
00:05:39.639 --> 00:05:43.079
of course, everyone, as they
often do going back one hundred and

59
00:05:43.199 --> 00:05:46.000
ten years to when they created the
Federal Reserve. They do it when people

60
00:05:46.040 --> 00:05:50.079
aren't paying as much attention to the
news. They do it over the holidays.

61
00:05:50.279 --> 00:05:56.920
The holidays, as they might say
euphemistically, Christmas time Hanukkah, and

62
00:05:57.040 --> 00:06:02.519
of course Michelle Kwanza, then Governor
DeWine from Ohio. Yeah, DeWine is

63
00:06:02.560 --> 00:06:08.839
not delightful in Ohio for parents because
he vetoed something a couple days ago that

64
00:06:09.040 --> 00:06:14.360
was a big bill for many parents
having to do with transgenderism my friends.

65
00:06:14.480 --> 00:06:19.240
Yes, yes, And whether or
not kids would actually be protected, well,

66
00:06:19.319 --> 00:06:24.720
we'll talk about that and the idea
of getting protection from an agency of

67
00:06:24.839 --> 00:06:28.639
force like the mafia of the state. We'll also discuss on the border.

68
00:06:28.680 --> 00:06:30.800
In fact, I might move that
one up on the border. Off the

69
00:06:30.879 --> 00:06:35.399
bus, Well, we'll talk about
this story out of New York City with

70
00:06:35.519 --> 00:06:42.560
Mayor Eric Adams now cracking down on
buses coming in from Texas. And we're

71
00:06:42.600 --> 00:06:46.800
going to open that one with a
quick story coming out of Boston, just

72
00:06:46.839 --> 00:06:50.639
to make sure that we give fair
and balanced coverage to the two Northeastern cities

73
00:06:50.639 --> 00:06:56.240
that seem to be most affected by
this. And we'll also talk about monumental

74
00:06:56.360 --> 00:07:00.879
Supreme Court cases. Plus today on
the program at ten o'clock, Eric Peters

75
00:07:00.879 --> 00:07:05.560
of Eric Peters Autos will join us. Jason Barker is probably gonna be with

76
00:07:05.680 --> 00:07:10.920
us as well, and Tony Arterburn
looks like Tony is gonna try to join

77
00:07:10.959 --> 00:07:15.519
me to start the year off right
from wise Wolf gold and silver exchange.

78
00:07:15.560 --> 00:07:21.160
So thanks for joining me, everybody, and please don't forget decency is on

79
00:07:21.360 --> 00:07:25.439
the ballot and what does it get
you, Well, it gets you things

80
00:07:25.480 --> 00:07:30.399
like the National Defense Authorization Act,
eight hundred and eighty six billion dollars taken

81
00:07:30.480 --> 00:07:35.680
from you and your progeny by a
government that's now almost thirty four trillion dollars

82
00:07:35.720 --> 00:07:44.519
in debt and every quarter accruing approximately
another trillion in debt servicing. All right,

83
00:07:45.040 --> 00:07:47.879
sorry, it's supposed to be a
happy new year. Happy new year,

84
00:07:48.480 --> 00:07:54.480
everybody. Okay, Yeah, the
hangover is coming for some people who

85
00:07:54.560 --> 00:07:58.639
have to pay the bill. It
also includes a five point two percent pay

86
00:07:58.720 --> 00:08:01.319
raise from members of the million terry
who have not been involved in the United

87
00:08:01.319 --> 00:08:07.399
States defense since the end of World
War two unconstitutional actions. Remember that serviceman

88
00:08:07.720 --> 00:08:15.040
also includes short term extension of warrantless
surveillance of foreign nationals. Yes it does,

89
00:08:15.759 --> 00:08:20.000
Yes it does. And that short
term FAISA extension will just continue to

90
00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:24.920
be extended because that's the way the
speaker set it up. Yeah, he's

91
00:08:24.959 --> 00:08:28.800
a real Christian. And of course
don't forget everybody. It also includes some

92
00:08:30.079 --> 00:08:37.240
very very good stuff like continuing funding
for Ukraine and continuing funding for Israel to

93
00:08:37.360 --> 00:08:43.679
blast goosit of pieces where there are
estimates of twenty thousand dead. So there

94
00:08:43.720 --> 00:08:48.279
you go. Sorry to give you
the harsh news, but yes, we

95
00:08:48.360 --> 00:08:50.799
are going to start with the big
stories, as Joe Piscopal might have said.

96
00:08:52.039 --> 00:08:56.200
And so therefore let's go to a
theme from Edwin Starr because in my

97
00:08:56.399 --> 00:09:00.440
estimation, and perhaps you have a
different view, in my estimation, on

98
00:09:00.480 --> 00:09:03.440
this New Year's Day, twenty twenty
four, and of course you two could

99
00:09:03.440 --> 00:09:07.279
have sung a song about it,
all is not quiet on New Year's Day.

100
00:09:07.320 --> 00:09:11.519
In fact, all seems to be
oriented towards warfare all around the state.

101
00:09:18.440 --> 00:09:45.559
Yeah, yeah, shacking y'all.
Listen to Edwin Starr getting into the

102
00:09:45.600 --> 00:09:54.360
beat. Yes he's got the beat, He's got the go gos oh man.

103
00:09:54.480 --> 00:09:58.080
What a fantastic song, and of
course a real call out to people

104
00:09:58.120 --> 00:10:03.240
from the sixties generation to try to
block what was going on with the United

105
00:10:03.279 --> 00:10:09.799
States pushing Americans over to Vietnam for
something that was just a meat grinder,

106
00:10:09.960 --> 00:10:13.720
just terrible stuff. So let me
show you what the meat grinder looks like.

107
00:10:13.080 --> 00:10:18.720
In Gaza right now. And here's
a story from antiwar dot com.

108
00:10:18.879 --> 00:10:24.240
And by the way, antiwar dot
com is now broadcasting with I believe it's

109
00:10:24.320 --> 00:10:28.440
daily updates from Dave to Camp on
YouTube. Hopefully YouTube will not just completely

110
00:10:28.480 --> 00:10:33.480
crush them, but they do great
work. Here's one from Brett Wilkins,

111
00:10:33.120 --> 00:10:37.159
just to give you an idea of
what this is like. Cashing in on

112
00:10:37.279 --> 00:10:43.720
genocide. Israeli firm pitches beachfront real
estate in leveled Gaza. Now, this

113
00:10:43.840 --> 00:10:48.559
got a little bit of pushback,
but it indicates I think it is indicative

114
00:10:48.679 --> 00:10:54.600
or illustrative of some of the mindset
that pervades many of the people in the

115
00:10:54.720 --> 00:11:01.399
major Lukud party in the Knesset and
throughout Israeli history. Actually, if we

116
00:11:01.440 --> 00:11:05.919
look at some of the things that
have been done to the people in Gaza,

117
00:11:05.919 --> 00:11:09.360
and I've got some history, some
information on that that I can provide

118
00:11:09.360 --> 00:11:13.039
to you. Cashing in on genocide, Israeli firm pitches beachfront real estate in

119
00:11:13.159 --> 00:11:18.600
leveled Gaza. A house on the
beach is not a dream, reads an

120
00:11:18.600 --> 00:11:26.399
advertisement from a company notorious for building
in the occupied West Bank Palestine Defenders this

121
00:11:26.480 --> 00:11:30.679
week. This came out on the
twentieth condemned, and this is part of

122
00:11:30.720 --> 00:11:33.320
the anti war blog by the way, so you just click over on their

123
00:11:33.360 --> 00:11:43.120
blog section in their thumbnails in their
menu and you'll find it. Palestine Defenders

124
00:11:43.159 --> 00:11:50.879
this week condemned a proposal by an
Israeli real estate developer specializing in the construction

125
00:11:50.039 --> 00:11:56.159
of illegal settlements to build beachfront homes
for Jewish colonists over the bombed out ruins

126
00:11:56.200 --> 00:12:01.679
of Gaza. A House on the
beach is not a dream, reads an

127
00:12:01.720 --> 00:12:09.519
advertisement published by hare Zazahav, an
Israeli company notorious for building settlements in the

128
00:12:09.080 --> 00:12:16.879
illegally occupied West Bank, and it
drew international attention following last week's practical preparation

129
00:12:16.000 --> 00:12:22.840
for Gaza settlement conference in Tel Aviv. The ad depicts an artist rendering of

130
00:12:22.960 --> 00:12:31.840
luxury homes superimposed over an actual photograph
of a Gaza neighborhood destroyed by Israeli attacks.

131
00:12:33.000 --> 00:12:35.480
No, this is not a joke. No, this is not a

132
00:12:35.600 --> 00:12:41.720
drill. The attacks that have killed
nearly twenty thousand people, half of them

133
00:12:41.840 --> 00:12:46.279
women and children in the population.
We don't know how many exactly killed were

134
00:12:46.320 --> 00:12:50.960
women and children in the five x
twenty five mile square mile area of five

135
00:12:52.039 --> 00:12:58.039
mile area, and which has been
made that small after decades of encroachment by

136
00:12:58.120 --> 00:13:03.399
the State of Israel. And of
course to criticize a state does not mean

137
00:13:03.399 --> 00:13:07.879
that you are criticizing the people living
under the power of the state. We

138
00:13:07.919 --> 00:13:13.360
don't conflate the two because I would
not want to be associated with the power

139
00:13:13.440 --> 00:13:18.080
ruling over me. I try to
oppose it every day with my voice.

140
00:13:20.279 --> 00:13:26.120
And it's of course displaced eighty five
percent of the embattled people living there two

141
00:13:26.159 --> 00:13:31.720
point three million, as I mentioned, in an area that's approximately the size

142
00:13:31.720 --> 00:13:35.960
of what they call the tip of
New Hampshire near the Canadian border. So

143
00:13:37.120 --> 00:13:41.200
here is the picture, and kudos
to Code Pink actually for putting this out

144
00:13:41.240 --> 00:13:46.000
there. Now there's going to be
some brutal stuff here. It's all about

145
00:13:46.080 --> 00:13:50.639
war in many facets. For the
first forty five minutes or half hour the

146
00:13:50.679 --> 00:13:54.120
program. To give you a quick
recap, I've put together a presentation of

147
00:13:54.200 --> 00:13:58.039
video clips for you, and I'd
like to get your opinions in rockfin and

148
00:13:58.120 --> 00:14:01.480
rumble Chat and also now invites your
opinions on the David Knights Show inside David

149
00:14:01.559 --> 00:14:05.879
Knight's Twitter feed, where the show
is being broadcast on Twitter slash X.

150
00:14:07.919 --> 00:14:11.200
Here's more and I'm sorry it's so
brutal, but I'm going to give it

151
00:14:11.240 --> 00:14:15.240
to you start of the year.
Over one thousand children in Gaza have had

152
00:14:15.279 --> 00:14:22.399
one or both legs amputated since October
seventh. This coming from UNISEF United Nations.

153
00:14:22.519 --> 00:14:26.600
So you see what you think of
this, International Aid workers, this

154
00:14:26.720 --> 00:14:30.559
is Kyle an'slone. Good job,
Kyle. A Happy New Year to you,

155
00:14:30.679 --> 00:14:35.960
Kyle. International aid workers visiting the
Gaza strip are relaying the horrific situation

156
00:14:35.159 --> 00:14:41.039
Israel is inflicting on the Palestinians.
UNISEF reports over one thousand children have lost

157
00:14:41.120 --> 00:14:46.720
legs. Israel is forcing the two
point three million residents of Gaza into increasingly

158
00:14:46.799 --> 00:14:52.879
small areas that lack the ability to
accommodate basic needs for survival. Unic spokes

159
00:14:52.159 --> 00:14:58.080
man James Elder said around one thousand
children in Gaza have lost one or both

160
00:14:58.200 --> 00:15:05.840
legs. I told journalists in Geneva, every single child is enduring these every

161
00:15:05.879 --> 00:15:09.559
single child isn't during these ten weeks
of hell, and not one of them

162
00:15:09.720 --> 00:15:15.399
can escape. So I'd like to
show you a little something I put together

163
00:15:15.399 --> 00:15:22.440
for you everyone, and we're going
to start things off with George Galloway with

164
00:15:22.600 --> 00:15:28.039
his program The Mote, and I
want to give you something that I think

165
00:15:28.159 --> 00:15:35.759
frames and describes exactly why I chose
this as the big story from twenty twenty

166
00:15:35.759 --> 00:15:39.399
three, and I think so far
it's the big story from twenty twenty four

167
00:15:39.519 --> 00:15:41.559
and it will bleed into of course, the elections in the United States.

168
00:15:41.879 --> 00:15:46.399
Here's George Galloway, the man with
the best hats in the business, and

169
00:15:46.480 --> 00:15:52.960
here we go. Was our well
received guest on this show, and as

170
00:15:52.960 --> 00:15:58.919
a Scotsman, why shouldn't he join
me on guest His guest is Douglas McGregor,

171
00:15:58.240 --> 00:16:03.960
one and all Douglas McGregor, who
could have stayed in politics but got

172
00:16:03.000 --> 00:16:08.480
out. Good for him. He's
trying to speak for peace. This is

173
00:16:08.519 --> 00:16:15.200
the best of Colonel Douglas McGregor.
Take a look. Welcome colonel to the

174
00:16:15.200 --> 00:16:19.919
mother of all talk shows. I'll
talk about your new role in a minute.

175
00:16:21.120 --> 00:16:26.399
But as you survey, the headlines
of the top people's papers hasn't quite

176
00:16:26.480 --> 00:16:32.559
filtered down to the news they give
to the masses yet. But all the

177
00:16:32.600 --> 00:16:41.080
top people's papers, all the top
people's for are all now preparing each other

178
00:16:41.279 --> 00:16:48.639
and ultimately they'll have to prepare us
the public for a cataclysmic Russian victory in

179
00:16:48.159 --> 00:16:57.200
Ukraine. You predicted this all along. Do you feel vindicated? I feel

180
00:16:57.240 --> 00:17:03.159
better about it if this had ended
earlier and fewer Ukrainians and Russians had lost

181
00:17:03.200 --> 00:17:06.960
their lives and what is really a
pointless conflict that never needed to happen.

182
00:17:10.160 --> 00:17:18.160
It's true, isn't it that every
death since the Ankara initial Draft peace Agreement

183
00:17:18.880 --> 00:17:23.839
has in a sense been a death
that our governments, yours and mine,

184
00:17:25.519 --> 00:17:30.960
be a responsibility for because this could
all have been over and hundreds of thousands

185
00:17:30.000 --> 00:17:36.400
of people that are dead today would
still have been alive. Oh absolutely.

186
00:17:36.960 --> 00:17:41.880
If anything, I would describe this
as a Washington vanity project. Lots of

187
00:17:41.920 --> 00:17:47.640
people in Washington, supported by friends
in London and some other European capitals,

188
00:17:47.640 --> 00:17:52.680
decided that they had an opportunity to
destroy Russia and that they would use Ukraine

189
00:17:52.720 --> 00:17:56.599
for that purpose. And they've been
building up to this for many, many

190
00:17:56.680 --> 00:18:00.799
years, not just the eight years
before the war broke out, actually even

191
00:18:00.839 --> 00:18:06.039
earlier, which helps to explain the
coup that occurred and the installation of the

192
00:18:06.119 --> 00:18:11.680
Zelensky government later on. All of
it was fantasy. It made no sense.

193
00:18:11.839 --> 00:18:15.440
All the underlying assumptions were wrong,
and the usual suspects, and the

194
00:18:15.480 --> 00:18:19.920
Department of Defense, all of your
retired generals and active generals, very few

195
00:18:19.920 --> 00:18:25.000
of whom ever, had any practical
military experience, and seldom, if ever,

196
00:18:25.200 --> 00:18:30.359
bothered to study their professions, all
jumped on the bandwagon predicting imminent victory

197
00:18:30.400 --> 00:18:38.240
for Ukraine. And everyone lied prolifically
and with great convincing rhetoric day after day

198
00:18:38.319 --> 00:18:41.279
that the Russians were awful, they
were losing, they had no chance to

199
00:18:41.319 --> 00:18:45.559
win. They still haven't admitted the
truth, which is we're looking at roughly

200
00:18:45.759 --> 00:18:52.119
half a million dead Ukrainian soldiers.
This evening I heard or retired generals say,

201
00:18:52.119 --> 00:18:56.640
well, perhaps one hundred and twenty
five thousand. Well that's a fraction

202
00:18:56.759 --> 00:19:00.920
of what we know has happened.
And he's still tried to make the argument

203
00:19:00.960 --> 00:19:04.640
that if we just spend more money
and send more equipment, Ukraine will triumph.

204
00:19:04.640 --> 00:19:10.720
In reality, the Russians are advancing
deliberately but slowly. I think mister

205
00:19:10.759 --> 00:19:15.279
Putin is looking for a negotiating partner
among the European states. He's not interested

206
00:19:15.319 --> 00:19:19.039
in marching to the Polish border.
But as I keep telling everyone, if

207
00:19:19.039 --> 00:19:25.680
we're stupid enough to refuse to negotiate, if we won't bring this stupid and

208
00:19:25.759 --> 00:19:29.279
pointless war to an end, not
only will we destroy the Ukrainian nation,

209
00:19:30.039 --> 00:19:33.680
but we'll end up moving Russian forces
that much further towards the West, which

210
00:19:33.720 --> 00:19:40.079
I thought was the very thing we
wanted to avoid. Well, folks,

211
00:19:40.279 --> 00:19:47.400
I have a different opinion. I
think they're going to try to maintain some

212
00:19:47.440 --> 00:19:53.039
sort of conflict status, low level
conflict status as they see Ukraine partitioned.

213
00:19:53.400 --> 00:19:57.000
And this is exactly what they wanted
if they couldn't beat Putin, they wanted

214
00:19:57.000 --> 00:20:03.839
to set up some new form of
Iron curtain and turn that bit of Ukraine

215
00:20:03.880 --> 00:20:08.799
that is left after Putin is victorious
and Ukraine sues for peace, and they're

216
00:20:08.839 --> 00:20:14.559
going to continue to have some sort
of always simmering, always bubbling conflict to

217
00:20:14.599 --> 00:20:21.880
make Russia become it's bogeyman at infinitum. Starting in twenty sixteen, of course,

218
00:20:21.960 --> 00:20:26.480
they really started to push this for
no reason whatsoever. And now they're

219
00:20:26.480 --> 00:20:32.559
adding that new chapter as perhaps they
closed that chapter of the Ukraine War,

220
00:20:32.680 --> 00:20:38.200
as Douglas McGregor mentions, they're opening
up the Gaza chapter new chapters in that

221
00:20:38.440 --> 00:20:45.599
after decades of attacks, and so
let's shift over into some very good information

222
00:20:45.160 --> 00:20:49.720
from again George Galloway, this time
with Christopher Hedges, and I think he

223
00:20:49.839 --> 00:20:56.000
frames the new side of things over
in Gaza with Israel and describes precisely what

224
00:20:56.359 --> 00:21:03.319
all of this is like right now
Gaza. Chris, We've both been across

225
00:21:03.359 --> 00:21:12.599
this course many times before, but
there's a particular frenzy and scale to the

226
00:21:12.720 --> 00:21:19.799
current slaughter, even by comparison with
previous ones. Wouldn't you say? Yes?

227
00:21:19.880 --> 00:21:26.759
It really at this point rivals the
massive ethnic cleansing campaigns of nineteen forty

228
00:21:26.759 --> 00:21:33.000
eight and nineteen forty nine, when
seven hundred and fifty thousand Palestinians were pushed

229
00:21:33.200 --> 00:21:37.640
from their homes a series of massacres
Darius Scene, hundreds of Palestinians killed,

230
00:21:37.680 --> 00:21:45.519
including many women and children. Again
another massive ethnic cleansing campaign in nineteen sixty

231
00:21:45.640 --> 00:21:53.920
seven, when Israel seized what was
left of independent Palestinian territory about twenty two

232
00:21:53.960 --> 00:22:03.319
percent of Palestinian land in the West
Bank and Gaza. It rivals that in

233
00:22:03.400 --> 00:22:08.440
terms of its brutality. The noises
out of Jerusalem on the part of the

234
00:22:08.480 --> 00:22:14.759
net In Yahoo government, as well
as the long calls for the removal of

235
00:22:14.799 --> 00:22:18.960
Palestinians not only from the West Bank
and Gaza, but from inside Israel,

236
00:22:19.039 --> 00:22:26.839
the Palestinians with Israeli citizenship that has
been central tenant of many of the senior

237
00:22:26.359 --> 00:22:33.799
ministers in this far right government,
the most extreme government in Israel's history.

238
00:22:33.880 --> 00:22:40.440
I don't think the word genocide at
this point is inappropriate. Cutting off food,

239
00:22:40.599 --> 00:22:48.200
water, medicine, fuel, hospitals
now are on the cusp of some

240
00:22:48.279 --> 00:22:52.119
have already shut down. I mean, this is just absolutely appalling. And

241
00:22:52.160 --> 00:22:57.359
of course what's even more appalling is
the complicity of the international community, or

242
00:22:57.440 --> 00:23:04.079
let's call the certainly Washington and Europe. Washington as the Biden administration is vetoed

243
00:23:04.319 --> 00:23:10.359
as you know, the calls for
ceasefire, even a pause to get supplies

244
00:23:10.440 --> 00:23:17.599
in. It's really absolutely stunning,
and I think it's clear that either all

245
00:23:17.720 --> 00:23:22.599
or part of the Gaza strip will
be bombed in a rubble. The northern

246
00:23:22.680 --> 00:23:27.400
area, the area where one point
one million Palestinians have had to evacuate,

247
00:23:27.440 --> 00:23:33.559
as being smashed pounded day in and
day out. I was in Sarajevo during

248
00:23:33.559 --> 00:23:37.920
the war. We were being hit
with about three or four hundred shells a

249
00:23:37.039 --> 00:23:42.200
day, but the numbers of dead
and wounded were nothing such as we see

250
00:23:42.200 --> 00:23:47.440
in Gaza, hundreds five hundred a
day, seven hundred a day, and

251
00:23:47.480 --> 00:23:51.079
then thousands of wounded. Of course, we have to always remember that half

252
00:23:51.160 --> 00:23:55.519
of the residents in Gaza, roughly
two point two two point three million people,

253
00:23:55.559 --> 00:24:00.839
over half of them are children.
So it's I'm like, you know,

254
00:24:00.279 --> 00:24:07.359
extremely upset as somebody who spent I
spent seven years covering Gaza, months

255
00:24:07.359 --> 00:24:11.160
of my life in Gaza. But
I'm also just it's draw dropping on the

256
00:24:11.240 --> 00:24:18.240
part of Washington and European capitals as
they sit there and do nothing in front

257
00:24:18.240 --> 00:24:21.559
of this learn. Indeed, if
you try and speak out against it,

258
00:24:21.920 --> 00:24:26.839
your censor your attacked as an anti
Semite. And I mean, we've gone

259
00:24:26.920 --> 00:24:34.160
from the absurdity of criticizing Israel as
a form of anti Semitism to criticizing genocide

260
00:24:34.519 --> 00:24:41.720
as a form of anti Semitism.
I think he's absolutely right, and I

261
00:24:41.759 --> 00:24:45.480
have to tell you, you know, as I've mentioned previously, I went

262
00:24:45.519 --> 00:24:51.160
to Boston University. My last name
is Goldsmith. Boston University's population is eighty

263
00:24:51.200 --> 00:24:56.480
five percent Jewish students, and I
encountered a lot of Zionist, non secular,

264
00:24:56.759 --> 00:25:06.160
nonpracticing, religiously Jewish people there who
were very Zionist, nonpracticing Jewish people

265
00:25:06.480 --> 00:25:14.359
who really could care less about their
religion but cared more about Israel. And

266
00:25:14.720 --> 00:25:18.039
many of the things that I would
hear about the Palestinians were just shocking.

267
00:25:18.519 --> 00:25:21.880
It was amazing while I was there, and of course they thought I was

268
00:25:21.960 --> 00:25:25.640
Jewish, but then after they found
out it's an English and Irish name,

269
00:25:26.160 --> 00:25:30.400
I didn't hear that from those people. Again, it was very very strange,

270
00:25:30.960 --> 00:25:36.079
very strange stuff. And I'm seeing
this manifested now twenty something years later

271
00:25:36.480 --> 00:25:41.559
or more, and it's stunning.
I'm just revisiting that mindset that I saw

272
00:25:41.680 --> 00:25:45.200
so many times, and I'd like
to visit some other information for you too

273
00:25:45.200 --> 00:25:48.000
here in the David Knight Show.
My name is Gardner Goldsmith. It's good

274
00:25:48.000 --> 00:25:52.279
to have you here, everyone,
and I want to give you some information

275
00:25:52.440 --> 00:26:00.039
that oftentimes I've heard conservatives on talk
radio say, well, if the if

276
00:26:00.079 --> 00:26:06.400
people are going to say that the
Israelis are starving and shutting down the water

277
00:26:06.880 --> 00:26:11.400
of the Palestinians, the Gozens have
been in charge. It's their fault.

278
00:26:11.039 --> 00:26:17.559
Really. After of course, the
Israeli government and Benjamin not net Yahoo intentionally

279
00:26:17.640 --> 00:26:22.240
openly more than once have been caught
saying they wanted the Gosens in there because

280
00:26:22.240 --> 00:26:26.400
they wanted to have an oppositional force
that would not negotiate with them. But

281
00:26:26.480 --> 00:26:30.480
in addition to that, let's look
at some of the history about the water

282
00:26:30.599 --> 00:26:37.599
crisis. This coming from nineteen ninety
eight. I dug this one up from

283
00:26:37.599 --> 00:26:44.920
the Palestine Israel Journal, a Palestinian
perspective on the water crisis. Total water

284
00:26:45.000 --> 00:26:51.000
resources in the Middle East region are
made up of two components, surface water

285
00:26:51.119 --> 00:26:55.920
and ground water. The main surface
water resource is the Jordan River basin,

286
00:26:56.519 --> 00:27:00.839
with the Sea of Galilee as the
major regional water reservoir. It has a

287
00:27:00.880 --> 00:27:08.640
storage capacity of four thousand million cubic
meters mcm or about one trillion US gallons

288
00:27:08.960 --> 00:27:15.519
and receives an average annual replenishment of
about eight hundred and forty cm so that

289
00:27:15.640 --> 00:27:22.039
be cubic meters. The Yarmac River
is also an integral part of the Jordan

290
00:27:22.160 --> 00:27:26.119
River basin. Its headwaters join the
Jordan River ten kilometers six point six miles

291
00:27:26.279 --> 00:27:32.599
below the Sea of Galilee six point
one miles. Groundwater is the most important

292
00:27:32.640 --> 00:27:37.240
source of freshwater supply in the area
very important and consists of the main West

293
00:27:37.319 --> 00:27:45.640
Bank aquifer systems as well as the
Gaza Strip aquifer. About six hundred million

294
00:27:45.759 --> 00:27:52.559
cubic meters of the annual rainfall is
estimated to infiltrate the soil to replenish the

295
00:27:52.599 --> 00:27:57.359
aquifers, and about forty million cubic
meters of rain each year percolates to recharge

296
00:27:57.359 --> 00:28:04.079
the coastal aquifer underlying the Strip.
Israel currently has control. This is in

297
00:28:04.160 --> 00:28:11.680
nineteen ninety eight over a major part
of the Jordan Basin waters. Israel,

298
00:28:11.960 --> 00:28:18.680
Syria and Jordan abstract four hundred and
fifty million cubic meters annually from the Yarmac

299
00:28:18.799 --> 00:28:26.480
River, and Israel siphons a further
four hundred and seventy million cubic meters from

300
00:28:26.519 --> 00:28:32.119
the Sea of Galilee. This reduces
the downstream Jordan to a fetid trickle.

301
00:28:33.200 --> 00:28:38.480
In Gaza, ground water is the
only source of fresh water, with an

302
00:28:38.599 --> 00:28:47.000
estimated potential of sixty five million cubic
meters per year at present, though the

303
00:28:47.039 --> 00:28:52.960
aquifer is being over pumped one hundred
million cubic meters annually in quantities exceeding the

304
00:28:53.000 --> 00:29:00.920
replenishment rate. Resulting in the gradual
invasion of sea water. Following its occupation

305
00:29:00.079 --> 00:29:06.240
of the West Bank and the Gaza
Strip in nineteen sixty seven, Israel implement

306
00:29:06.359 --> 00:29:15.680
in stringent policies that prevented Palestinians from
fully utilizing the West Bank's groundwater. These

307
00:29:15.799 --> 00:29:22.640
included the expropriation of wells belonging to
absentee owners. And don't forget, of

308
00:29:22.680 --> 00:29:27.839
course, the Israeli government can make
anyone they want and absentee. As we

309
00:29:27.960 --> 00:29:33.200
noted last week, they were holding
hundreds of people for over a year without

310
00:29:33.440 --> 00:29:40.400
charge. Those would be called hostages
in many areas. So if the Israelis

311
00:29:40.400 --> 00:29:45.680
can use the argument that they are
going into Gaza and killing innocent civilians to

312
00:29:45.759 --> 00:29:51.480
rescue hostages, then is it possible
that someone could make the argument that the

313
00:29:51.599 --> 00:29:59.759
Gazen authority is also perfectly justified to
go in and kill Israeli civilians because they're

314
00:30:00.079 --> 00:30:04.599
skewing hostages that the Israelis have held
without trial. Could they use that as

315
00:30:04.640 --> 00:30:11.119
well? Because it's very perverse,
and the problem that I see as a

316
00:30:11.160 --> 00:30:14.279
person who lives in the United States
and has to pay taxes or else go

317
00:30:14.319 --> 00:30:19.839
to prison here, the problem that
I see is that they force all of

318
00:30:19.920 --> 00:30:26.319
us to be implicated in this problem. We either continue to pay to see

319
00:30:26.319 --> 00:30:32.359
people slaughtered and have all sorts of
disparate arguments about who is right and who

320
00:30:32.440 --> 00:30:37.000
is wrong in this decades long battle. Once a nation state was established by

321
00:30:37.000 --> 00:30:41.599
Western authorities and land was taken,
that they took land to use the active

322
00:30:41.680 --> 00:30:48.960
voice there year after year and killed
thousands year after year. I would rather

323
00:30:49.039 --> 00:30:52.559
not have to be part of this. I don't want to be in that

324
00:30:52.640 --> 00:31:00.799
philosophy class where they say you are
part of a jungle a jungle tour group

325
00:31:00.319 --> 00:31:04.559
and you are waylaid by a warlord. You have twenty people in the group.

326
00:31:04.680 --> 00:31:08.839
The warlord hands you a gun and
tells you and you can't shoot the

327
00:31:08.839 --> 00:31:14.720
warlord for some reason and tells you
you must kill one of the other nineteen

328
00:31:15.039 --> 00:31:18.759
or all of them will die.
I don't want to be a person who

329
00:31:18.839 --> 00:31:25.759
is put in that situation. I
want to be able to refuse without going

330
00:31:25.799 --> 00:31:33.519
to prison. I would have to
make a decision to kill, and people

331
00:31:33.559 --> 00:31:34.880
can say, well, you do
it under duress. I'm still pulling the

332
00:31:34.920 --> 00:31:41.200
trigger. It's my actions, and
a little bit later I'm going to go

333
00:31:41.240 --> 00:31:45.119
through something that Richard Grove. He
did a fantastic job last night in Grand

334
00:31:45.160 --> 00:31:56.079
Theft World covering the writings of frenchmen
at Tien de la Bote called We'll just

335
00:31:56.079 --> 00:32:00.000
tell you about it real quick here
and let me show you where is this

336
00:32:04.440 --> 00:32:16.839
got it here? It is it's
the politics of involuntary servitude. And he

337
00:32:16.880 --> 00:32:22.039
wrote it, I think before he
was even twenty years old, and it

338
00:32:22.119 --> 00:32:25.519
is about how even when you are
under duress, you still have to make

339
00:32:25.799 --> 00:32:36.559
a moral choice and that is difficult. Here is a last bit on this

340
00:32:36.640 --> 00:32:39.400
story about the water. There's a
lot here. I will repost this on

341
00:32:39.440 --> 00:32:43.400
my Twitter. I haven't done this
yet because I want to phrase this right

342
00:32:43.440 --> 00:32:46.720
when I put this out. In
some due to restrictions on water allocations imposed

343
00:32:46.720 --> 00:32:51.440
by Israel, the water situation in
Palestine is approaching a critical phase that was

344
00:32:51.480 --> 00:32:55.839
in nineteen ninety eight that hinders economic
development and threatens the livelihood of the Palestinian

345
00:32:55.880 --> 00:33:00.960
population. It is clear than an
apportionment of water rights between the conflicting parties

346
00:33:01.079 --> 00:33:08.160
should be considered on a more equitable
basis. Now, let's get into a

347
00:33:08.200 --> 00:33:16.480
little bit more about what's going on
in the Middle East. Here is Max

348
00:33:16.519 --> 00:33:22.920
Bloomentdhal and Aaron Motte of The Gray
Zone describing some of the on the ground

349
00:33:23.039 --> 00:33:30.480
situation the news, which is that
the government of South Africa has invoked the

350
00:33:30.480 --> 00:33:37.720
Genocide Convention. This is a highly
significant there, it is. Thanks for

351
00:33:37.759 --> 00:33:44.599
getting that up. I don't know
if you have anything you want to say

352
00:33:44.640 --> 00:33:47.880
about this, Aaron, or what
you think about the significance of this invocation.

353
00:33:49.720 --> 00:33:52.880
Well, it's obviously long overdue.
It should have happened, you know,

354
00:33:53.119 --> 00:33:57.119
months ago, but it's good it's
finally happening now. And of course

355
00:33:57.160 --> 00:34:02.880
it's fitting that it comes from South
Africa, which, like Israel, was

356
00:34:02.920 --> 00:34:08.840
once a US client state whose crimes
were protected by the US, and South

357
00:34:08.840 --> 00:34:14.559
Africa, having liberated itself from that, knows a lot about apartheid and living

358
00:34:14.599 --> 00:34:19.239
under a supremacist regime. So good
for them for taking the leadership, finally

359
00:34:19.280 --> 00:34:28.480
the moral leadership and invoking international law
to protect the people of Gaza from this

360
00:34:28.519 --> 00:34:37.199
generosadal regime. And again having and
there's another historical overlap here in that Israel

361
00:34:37.360 --> 00:34:43.039
was a key supporter of the apartheid
regime in South Africa, especially when the

362
00:34:43.159 --> 00:34:47.000
US wasn't able to provide all the
support to the apartheid regime that it wanted

363
00:34:47.000 --> 00:34:52.719
to because of you know, public
criticism and oversight. It got Israel to

364
00:34:52.760 --> 00:34:57.280
do the dirty work for it,
as is Israel did all around the world

365
00:34:57.320 --> 00:35:01.480
for the US when it needed to
evase scrutiny. So really symbolic and important

366
00:35:01.480 --> 00:35:08.760
that South Africa's taking this measure actually
fun. Fact, Arn Milton, who

367
00:35:08.840 --> 00:35:13.960
is one of the most famous Masad
agents, who ran a studio in Hollywood

368
00:35:14.000 --> 00:35:17.639
called Regent Studios where he employed and
mentored the future Israeli Prime Minister. Yeah,

369
00:35:17.679 --> 00:35:24.360
you're Lapede helped South Africa get nuclear
technology through the nuclear technology that Israel

370
00:35:24.360 --> 00:35:31.719
obtained. Israel's very very sorry that
South Africa is no longer in apartheid state.

371
00:35:31.760 --> 00:35:36.280
They work together very closely. They
shared a lot of values in Israel

372
00:35:36.320 --> 00:35:43.880
as anachronistic in history as the last
real apartheid state in implementing genocide in order

373
00:35:43.920 --> 00:35:49.440
to preserve its own ethnic purity.
So I do want to mention we can

374
00:35:49.559 --> 00:35:54.440
leave it there, but I do
want to make sure that because Max offered

375
00:35:54.519 --> 00:36:00.400
such an a powerful punch there that
was quite a jab to the Jaw,

376
00:36:00.360 --> 00:36:04.719
I do want to mention a couple
things. First, regarding South Africa,

377
00:36:04.840 --> 00:36:09.119
of course I've a long time admired
the Zulu tribe there. They did not

378
00:36:09.199 --> 00:36:15.280
join up with the ANC. So
obviously, even within the give and take

379
00:36:15.400 --> 00:36:21.199
between the South African apartheid regime which
did some terrible things in South Africa and

380
00:36:21.239 --> 00:36:25.760
then what emerged from that, which
was the pro collectivist seizure of property ANC.

381
00:36:27.559 --> 00:36:32.679
And of course we know that Nelson
Mandela's wife Winnie was an absolute criminal

382
00:36:32.719 --> 00:36:37.239
element. They've got her on video
talking about how they were going to necklace

383
00:36:37.239 --> 00:36:42.440
people, which has put tires around
people who are tied up, tires filled

384
00:36:42.480 --> 00:36:46.280
with gasoline or kerosene or diesel fuel
and then light them on fire and just

385
00:36:46.679 --> 00:36:51.000
kill people. I've actually seen video
of it. It's terrible. I mean,

386
00:36:51.039 --> 00:36:52.400
you know, seen video of you
know, that sort of thing.

387
00:36:52.480 --> 00:36:58.079
Nowadays, there's so much video available
of atrocities that it doesn't mean very much.

388
00:36:58.119 --> 00:37:01.360
But it is not good to see, that's for sure. And I'm

389
00:37:01.400 --> 00:37:04.679
just seeing video, you know,
I'm not there on the ground. I

390
00:37:04.679 --> 00:37:07.800
don't experience this sort of thing from
family members, losing family members, that

391
00:37:07.840 --> 00:37:12.639
sort of stuff, but it does
really bring it home. However, Max

392
00:37:12.679 --> 00:37:19.199
mentioned, you know, their ethnic
purity in Israel, and this is something

393
00:37:19.280 --> 00:37:22.519
I want to allow him to embellish
on this because there's more here and I

394
00:37:22.519 --> 00:37:25.960
don't want to leave that just hanging
there. And of course it's quite a

395
00:37:27.039 --> 00:37:30.800
mixed bag when you look at various
powers and policies coming out of South Africa.

396
00:37:30.840 --> 00:37:40.039
But he makes an excellent point there, the last real apartheid state in

397
00:37:40.320 --> 00:37:45.599
implementing genocide in order to preserve its
own ethnic purity. That's exactly what's happening

398
00:37:45.679 --> 00:37:51.360
right now. So the moral force
of this invocation by South Africa is highly

399
00:37:51.400 --> 00:37:55.119
significant. It's an eighty four page
document. It came out like two hours

400
00:37:55.159 --> 00:38:00.599
ago, so I haven't had a
chance to I'm probably not going to read

401
00:38:00.679 --> 00:38:04.159
all eighty four pages. It's not
going to happen. Yeah, he's he's

402
00:38:04.199 --> 00:38:08.280
a busy dude, but I always
admire his excellent, excellent work. Now

403
00:38:08.360 --> 00:38:15.840
I want to turn to Scott Ritter
talking about Palestine as well, and he

404
00:38:15.039 --> 00:38:21.039
was on with George Galloway and uh, here's what Scott Ridder said. Of

405
00:38:21.039 --> 00:38:27.280
course, Scott Ritter formerly in the
military, former nuclear inspector, and looks

406
00:38:27.320 --> 00:38:30.039
like, you know, some people
don't like some of his personal background or

407
00:38:30.039 --> 00:38:36.800
something like that I am not gonna
judge him one way or another another,

408
00:38:36.840 --> 00:38:39.719
and even saying that, you know, might make people wonder what's guard talking

409
00:38:39.719 --> 00:38:45.079
about. You know, there was
some some some case where evidently like he

410
00:38:45.199 --> 00:38:50.599
was accused of trying to talk to
an underage young woman and it was like

411
00:38:50.599 --> 00:38:52.719
a sting operation. Uh, it
could have been a setup. I don't

412
00:38:52.760 --> 00:38:59.840
know, but he is just excellent
on on this stuff and I don't think

413
00:38:59.840 --> 00:39:04.519
he was ever charged with anything.
So I look at it as this guy's

414
00:39:04.559 --> 00:39:07.559
been working in politics for a long
time. He's got a lot of enemies.

415
00:39:07.760 --> 00:39:09.440
I don't think they were able to
make that thing stick. And I

416
00:39:09.559 --> 00:39:14.639
take him for his words here,
So here we go. Oh, then

417
00:39:14.639 --> 00:39:19.280
they withdrew to prepared positions. That's
the final act of a raid, their

418
00:39:19.320 --> 00:39:23.599
prepared positions. So he's talking about
he's talking about the Hamas fighters. After

419
00:39:23.639 --> 00:39:30.800
October seventh, they went back into
the city and that is typical of a

420
00:39:30.840 --> 00:39:35.679
well performed raid. And they went
back and now he's talking about the Israeli

421
00:39:35.800 --> 00:39:39.840
response. Oh, then they withdrew
to prepared positions. That's the final act

422
00:39:39.880 --> 00:39:45.519
of a raid. Their prepared positions
have happened to be underground as they are

423
00:39:45.559 --> 00:39:50.440
wont to be if you want to
survive with Israeli air supremacy, et cetera.

424
00:39:51.360 --> 00:39:54.920
And Israel has gone into Gaza knowing
that they're not going to close with

425
00:39:55.039 --> 00:40:00.320
and destroy the Hamas enemy through firepower
maneuver in classic milllitary terms, that they're

426
00:40:00.320 --> 00:40:06.960
going to instead carry out collective punishment
against the citizens of Guys or the innocent

427
00:40:07.280 --> 00:40:12.280
Palestinian people. And they're not even
hiding it now. In addition to these

428
00:40:12.719 --> 00:40:16.159
horrific visuals, I mean, you
know, raising the flag over a hospital

429
00:40:16.239 --> 00:40:23.159
really look. I come from an
organization whose defining moment is characterized by marines

430
00:40:23.280 --> 00:40:29.280
raising the flag on Mount Serbachi.
Of the two hundred and fifty marines that

431
00:40:29.320 --> 00:40:32.519
went up that mountain, twenty seven
lived. Twenty seven out of two hundred

432
00:40:32.519 --> 00:40:37.119
and fifty. Because it was a
real war, a real war, we

433
00:40:37.239 --> 00:40:40.920
earned the right to plant that flag
on Mount Serbachi. These Israelis that put

434
00:40:40.960 --> 00:40:45.639
the flag above the Aushifa hospital,
they should be ashamed of themselves. I

435
00:40:45.679 --> 00:40:51.360
hope that their pictures are taken,
that their faces are recognized and broadcast around

436
00:40:51.400 --> 00:40:53.960
the world. So wherever they go
to try and get somebody to buy them

437
00:40:54.000 --> 00:40:59.159
a beer, for being a man, for raising the flag instead people spitting

438
00:40:59.199 --> 00:41:02.400
their face. That's all they deserve
if they can walk out of Gaza alive.

439
00:41:02.719 --> 00:41:07.239
Is this battling over yet? Hamas
is still there. There's a lot

440
00:41:07.280 --> 00:41:10.159
of fighting, Leve George. I
don't want to sound like I'm glorifying more.

441
00:41:10.360 --> 00:41:15.760
I'm not. My ideal solution right
now is a ceasefire that brings an

442
00:41:15.840 --> 00:41:20.679
end to this conflict, gets the
Israeli troops out of Gaza, gets peacekeeper

443
00:41:20.719 --> 00:41:24.760
troops in Gaza, and gets humanitarian
supplies to the people that so desperately need

444
00:41:24.800 --> 00:41:30.679
it, so that the international community
can begin the business of talking about how

445
00:41:30.719 --> 00:41:36.280
do we make sure that this never
happens again. That should be everybody's priority.

446
00:41:36.280 --> 00:41:38.880
It should have been Israel's priority on
October eighth, not to say how

447
00:41:38.880 --> 00:41:44.239
do we exact revenge? But how
do we prevent this from happening again?

448
00:41:44.440 --> 00:41:49.559
How do we prevent an October seventh
from ever happening again? Because everything that's

449
00:41:49.599 --> 00:41:55.800
transpired since October seventh has turned international
opinion away from Israel, and Israel taking

450
00:41:55.840 --> 00:42:01.159
a different stance on October eighth,
the stance that said we understand why this

451
00:42:01.280 --> 00:42:07.800
happened, This is painful for us, but we need now to recognize that

452
00:42:07.840 --> 00:42:13.400
the Palestinian people have to have a
homeland. The only way to disarm Hamas

453
00:42:14.239 --> 00:42:17.960
is to give the Palestinian people a
homeland, and then Hamas loses. It's

454
00:42:20.159 --> 00:42:23.880
right, it's need for militancy,
but that's not what Israel's doing. They

455
00:42:24.039 --> 00:42:29.920
claim they're trying to defeat Hamas.
But understand this, Hamas isn't just fighters

456
00:42:29.960 --> 00:42:35.320
to be killed. It's an idea. It's an ideology. This area called

457
00:42:35.320 --> 00:42:37.519
the Philadelphia Corda. I want to
pause it right there. We'll get back

458
00:42:37.559 --> 00:42:40.920
to more of the gray zone in
just a minute, folks, But you

459
00:42:40.960 --> 00:42:45.400
know, one of the things I
want to mention there is and again,

460
00:42:45.480 --> 00:42:47.559
hats off. I took off my
top Pat a little while ago, but

461
00:42:47.679 --> 00:42:52.360
hats off to the people at the
Young Turks Again. You know, I've

462
00:42:52.400 --> 00:42:55.559
never been a massive fan. And
by the way, Huxley orwell mentions ask

463
00:42:55.639 --> 00:42:59.800
Gritter about Pat Tillman. Yes,
I'd like to investigate that a little bit

464
00:42:59.880 --> 00:43:02.679
more more. But thank you,
Thank you Huxy or well Over at Twitter

465
00:43:02.719 --> 00:43:07.920
on the David Knight at Liberty Arrian
twitter feed. Appreciate your comments there Huxley,

466
00:43:07.159 --> 00:43:14.960
and I do want to mention I
try to remind myself to try to

467
00:43:15.400 --> 00:43:19.199
try to address some of these things
in a way that would be skeptical myself

468
00:43:19.239 --> 00:43:23.840
obviously, but also to be open
to people that in the past I might

469
00:43:23.840 --> 00:43:29.280
have found maybe I disagree with them
a lot, but all of a sudden,

470
00:43:29.400 --> 00:43:30.800
you know, I'm getting some good
information. I try to keep the

471
00:43:30.840 --> 00:43:37.119
doors open and at Young Turks.
Uh. You know, thank unger Uger

472
00:43:37.880 --> 00:43:45.960
was very good in his debate against
uh what's this what's his name from Douglas

473
00:43:45.079 --> 00:43:52.840
Murray from England on the show Uncensored
and Uh. He brought up some very

474
00:43:52.880 --> 00:43:55.719
good points about the numbers of deaths
and things like that, and Douglas Murray

475
00:43:55.800 --> 00:44:00.519
was just full of of invective.
And I won't go through it. You

476
00:44:00.519 --> 00:44:04.000
know, shown it in the past
if you want to watch this. I

477
00:44:04.039 --> 00:44:07.599
went through a large segment of it
on Thursday on the David Knight Show and

478
00:44:07.639 --> 00:44:13.320
also on Liberty Conspiracy that night at
six o'clock, so you can find either

479
00:44:13.320 --> 00:44:17.760
one on Rumble Rockfinn. But I
also want to bring up something else,

480
00:44:17.920 --> 00:44:23.079
which is that he mentions the hospital
there and you see he gets very fired

481
00:44:23.159 --> 00:44:27.039
up there. He has that sort
of you know, he's been in the

482
00:44:27.039 --> 00:44:30.559
military and he recognizes what soldiers are
supposed to do or not supposed to do,

483
00:44:30.639 --> 00:44:35.440
that sort of thing. It seems
he has this this fire in him

484
00:44:35.480 --> 00:44:39.800
and I want to mention he's absolutely
right about that hospital. And not only

485
00:44:39.840 --> 00:44:45.280
that, the folks at the Young
Turks have correctly reported. I made sure

486
00:44:45.320 --> 00:44:51.400
I made to know this. In
the northern region. There are no hospitals

487
00:44:51.519 --> 00:44:58.239
left in Gaza, and seventy five
percent of the hospitals have been destroyed or

488
00:44:58.239 --> 00:45:04.159
they're not working anymore. They were
destroyed. The Israelis destroyed them. Not

489
00:45:04.239 --> 00:45:08.239
to use the passive voice, so
there's much more everyone. And I want

490
00:45:08.280 --> 00:45:13.840
to take a second here just to
turn to the rock fin Chat and welcome

491
00:45:13.920 --> 00:45:19.000
you on this first day of twenty
twenty four Denver out of Way. Thank

492
00:45:19.039 --> 00:45:21.840
you for being there. And I
know a lot of people say at a

493
00:45:21.880 --> 00:45:23.239
boy out of way or out of
way, a way to go, but

494
00:45:23.360 --> 00:45:28.599
thanks for being there. Birdhouse Blues
also thank you very much. And I'm

495
00:45:28.639 --> 00:45:31.599
checking on Rumble. According to the
streaming system, it says that we are

496
00:45:31.679 --> 00:45:37.760
going out on Rumble, but I'm
not able to watch and monitor Rumble right

497
00:45:37.800 --> 00:45:40.199
now. So, Birdhouse, I
know that you are often on the Rumble

498
00:45:40.280 --> 00:45:45.199
chat for my show, so I
wonder if you are in Rockfin because we

499
00:45:45.280 --> 00:45:47.800
might not be streaming on Rumble.
We will see, would I certainly hope

500
00:45:47.840 --> 00:45:51.960
so, because we get so many
great viewers there, and one of the

501
00:45:52.000 --> 00:45:55.800
people who is always a great person
to have with us is coming in with

502
00:45:55.880 --> 00:46:00.760
us right now for a few minutes
because I want to discuss something that I

503
00:46:00.800 --> 00:46:06.960
think could be coming in the future, and it's censorship about things beyond the

504
00:46:07.079 --> 00:46:15.199
jabs, censorship about things beyond the
so called elections that we're so honest and

505
00:46:15.480 --> 00:46:20.599
perhaps it might even be Oh,
if you are critical of the state of

506
00:46:20.679 --> 00:46:25.519
Israel and you can't be that in
Florida because you could get fined. I

507
00:46:25.559 --> 00:46:29.559
want to bring in Jason Barker right
now, Jason Barker, Knights of the

508
00:46:29.599 --> 00:46:31.400
Storm. Happy New Year, Jason, how are you hey? Good morning,

509
00:46:31.400 --> 00:46:35.119
Happy New Year. I need to
send you a monocle to go with

510
00:46:35.159 --> 00:46:39.280
that top hat. I know,
monopoly man, right, Yeah, there

511
00:46:39.320 --> 00:46:44.480
you go. Hi, Mammy,
how are you? Absolutely hey? Happy

512
00:46:44.519 --> 00:46:46.480
New Year man, and thank you
very much for joining joining me on The

513
00:46:46.559 --> 00:46:50.599
David Night Show. It's good to
have you here, my friends. Awesome.

514
00:46:50.639 --> 00:46:52.320
I'm looking forward to this year.
You know that we're starting with a

515
00:46:52.440 --> 00:46:58.039
dumpster fully engulfed in flight, so
you know, I don't know how they

516
00:46:58.159 --> 00:47:01.519
keep it going with the cost of
fuel, but that dumster burning, I

517
00:47:01.559 --> 00:47:05.039
know. I think John Carey is
going to be there to rescue us all

518
00:47:05.039 --> 00:47:09.280
from that terrible additive to climate change, right, wink wink, right,

519
00:47:10.000 --> 00:47:15.519
unbelievable. Jason, I specifically am
very curious as we start this year.

520
00:47:15.639 --> 00:47:20.599
Last night, Angry Tiger was broadcasting
live and you brought up something that you

521
00:47:20.639 --> 00:47:24.039
brought up also on Nights of the
Storm on Saturday, and people can check

522
00:47:24.039 --> 00:47:27.079
out Nights of the Storm, why
don't you let them know where they can

523
00:47:27.159 --> 00:47:30.800
find you first of all, to
the folks who might not be familiar with

524
00:47:30.840 --> 00:47:34.679
you, and when they can find
you. Well, if you just go

525
00:47:34.719 --> 00:47:38.199
to the Nights of Thestorm dot com
and you go to our little schedule page

526
00:47:38.239 --> 00:47:40.880
or whatever, it's going to tell
you when you can find us, what

527
00:47:40.920 --> 00:47:45.679
time, what platforms, and then
also yourself, Gardner and other people,

528
00:47:45.760 --> 00:47:47.639
other great people. So that's the
easiest way to find out where to watch

529
00:47:47.719 --> 00:47:51.760
us. It's a great sight and
the artwork's great. You've got talent,

530
00:47:51.840 --> 00:47:55.079
you got so many different skills,
it's awesome. I want to mention right

531
00:47:55.119 --> 00:48:00.000
off the bat that you mentioned something
last night on Angry Tiger Show. Chris

532
00:48:00.199 --> 00:48:04.159
is in there to speculate as well, and it is. It is purely

533
00:48:04.239 --> 00:48:07.559
speculation right now, but it's based
on a certain amount of information that you

534
00:48:07.719 --> 00:48:13.559
have, things that have happened to
you on YouTube. And again, you

535
00:48:13.559 --> 00:48:16.519
know, we know that YouTube has
been censorious of channels, but now we're

536
00:48:16.559 --> 00:48:22.920
talking about live chat. Tell us
what happened, and I think, you

537
00:48:22.960 --> 00:48:27.000
know, we'll go to the top
of the hour and then Eric Peters Peters

538
00:48:27.000 --> 00:48:29.840
will join us. I mean,
he'll probably have some opinions, but I'd

539
00:48:29.880 --> 00:48:32.239
love to get your explanation of this
and any theories you might have. Tell

540
00:48:32.280 --> 00:48:37.199
folks what happened to you recently?
Sure, so, I was watching Tiger's

541
00:48:37.239 --> 00:48:40.960
Show. Uh was I think Thursday
or Wednesday? He does the Tiger's Den

542
00:48:42.639 --> 00:48:45.679
and I left a comment in there. He was talking about bombastic reporting.

543
00:48:45.199 --> 00:48:49.199
You know how that makes us look
stupid. Yeah, we're trying to get

544
00:48:49.199 --> 00:48:52.199
the truth out there, but we
get lumped in with these folks that report

545
00:48:52.280 --> 00:48:54.039
on hollow earth flatter if you know, hey, that may be true.

546
00:48:54.079 --> 00:48:58.320
I don't know, but we can't
prove it, you know. So anyway,

547
00:48:59.599 --> 00:49:04.079
I had to comment something to along
the lines of you know, you

548
00:49:04.119 --> 00:49:07.840
know Pfizer's killing kids, and you
report on that, and then you get

549
00:49:07.159 --> 00:49:12.480
you get censored, like like nobody
follows your channel. But then you report

550
00:49:12.480 --> 00:49:15.320
on this bombastic stuff and you get
tens of thousands of views, you know,

551
00:49:15.400 --> 00:49:19.679
and they censored it in real time. In other words, what happened

552
00:49:19.760 --> 00:49:22.320
was I hit the go button,
you know, make the comment, and

553
00:49:22.400 --> 00:49:25.920
it was great out and only I
could see it. So then and I

554
00:49:25.960 --> 00:49:29.480
was out in the garage with my
phone at the time. So then I

555
00:49:29.519 --> 00:49:32.840
come back in and I'm sitting here
watching on my computer, and two comments

556
00:49:32.840 --> 00:49:37.159
were made under my account that I
didn't make, talking about guns, and

557
00:49:37.159 --> 00:49:39.480
in the context of what we were
talking about, it's almost like it was

558
00:49:39.480 --> 00:49:43.960
a call to violence. But I
didn't make those comments. The scary thing

559
00:49:44.079 --> 00:49:47.320
is that that conversation where I think
I was talking to Harps or somebody you

560
00:49:47.360 --> 00:49:52.239
know who Harps is from the chat. Sure, this was comments made on

561
00:49:52.400 --> 00:49:57.480
rock Fin months ago when we were
discussing what a good reliable handgun was that

562
00:49:57.599 --> 00:50:02.199
wasn't too expensive and they clipped those. I assume it's AI. It's kind

563
00:50:02.199 --> 00:50:06.400
of monitoring what we're doing and kind
of putting that stuff in their back pocket,

564
00:50:06.679 --> 00:50:08.960
and it'll be weaponized against us in
the future. So now I know

565
00:50:09.079 --> 00:50:14.760
Chris. Chris Graves speculated that it
could potentially be someone who was just trying

566
00:50:14.760 --> 00:50:17.920
to mess with you, But that
would require you had two different devices on

567
00:50:17.960 --> 00:50:22.320
two different ISPs, right, So
that would require some pretty intense focus on

568
00:50:22.440 --> 00:50:29.519
you, and then it would require
a some sort of search that this person

569
00:50:29.599 --> 00:50:34.280
could have done to get old comments
from you to put those comments in there.

570
00:50:35.199 --> 00:50:37.840
Well, I think that the you
know, whether it's a person or

571
00:50:37.840 --> 00:50:40.239
whether it's AI, it's the same
thing, and I think AI could do

572
00:50:40.239 --> 00:50:45.400
it a lot more efficiently. And
as we're rolling out five G and Starlink

573
00:50:45.599 --> 00:50:50.000
and boasting our AI boosting it up, I think we're going to see more

574
00:50:50.039 --> 00:50:52.880
things like this where people are kind
of set up. Yeah, it could

575
00:50:52.880 --> 00:50:54.920
be targeted. Yeah, well,
let me let me ask you, Jason,

576
00:50:54.960 --> 00:50:59.440
I should I should ask for my
own distinction here. Maybe the audience

577
00:50:59.480 --> 00:51:02.159
is thinking this same thing when we
when we're talking AI. I was assuming

578
00:51:02.239 --> 00:51:07.239
AI involved with YouTube and Google and
alphabet just to just to mess with people.

579
00:51:07.280 --> 00:51:12.760
Do you mean maybe AI that someone
else is using another individual not associated

580
00:51:12.800 --> 00:51:16.280
with the corporation. I don't know. It could be either or but I

581
00:51:16.320 --> 00:51:22.159
know YouTube as part of the whole
Google conglomerate. I just find it strange

582
00:51:22.199 --> 00:51:25.960
that the comments that they chose to
take that I made in the past and

583
00:51:27.000 --> 00:51:31.119
a completely different context, was from
from Rockfin. Yeah. Yeah, that's

584
00:51:31.159 --> 00:51:36.199
a completely different platform. So I
think everything's going to get married and integrated.

585
00:51:36.239 --> 00:51:38.519
It could be a government agency,
it could be a person using AI.

586
00:51:38.639 --> 00:51:40.840
I don't know, but I don't
think anywhere is going to be safe.

587
00:51:42.559 --> 00:51:46.079
Well, Max b on Rockfin says, I saw Jason and Angus talking

588
00:51:46.119 --> 00:51:55.639
about this Saturday, pretty creepy and
yeah, absolutely, and Birdhouse boost says,

589
00:51:55.719 --> 00:52:02.119
I think geesebusters experienced the same thing
last week. That is strange.

590
00:52:02.239 --> 00:52:07.800
Well, you know, if word
starts getting out, then people are going

591
00:52:07.880 --> 00:52:13.360
to start to investigate it, and
word is going to start getting out if

592
00:52:13.400 --> 00:52:19.320
this is this continues, So I
wonder why it's unless people, you know,

593
00:52:19.400 --> 00:52:22.679
if the corporation is doing this,
they're probing, They're they're seeing what

594
00:52:22.760 --> 00:52:24.920
sort of reaction they're getting and if
individuals are doing this, they're going to

595
00:52:24.960 --> 00:52:29.880
get caught. So I don't understand. Do you have any thoughts on why

596
00:52:29.920 --> 00:52:31.639
they might be doing this? Uh? Well, I think it's to set

597
00:52:31.639 --> 00:52:35.280
people up. I mean, I
was expecting to get a knock on the

598
00:52:35.280 --> 00:52:37.840
door, you know, the next
day, saying, hey, why are

599
00:52:37.840 --> 00:52:42.920
you doing a call to violence on
online? You know, because they can

600
00:52:42.960 --> 00:52:46.119
they can weaponize your free speech against
you for things you actually say. But

601
00:52:46.119 --> 00:52:50.800
what if they can put words in
your mouth? Can they do that?

602
00:52:50.320 --> 00:52:52.639
And That's what I'm thinking. And
maybe they're kind of testing it out to

603
00:52:52.679 --> 00:52:55.199
see. And I don't know why
they picked me. Maybe it's because I

604
00:52:55.239 --> 00:53:00.000
made the Pfiser comment. Yeah,
that's what got me kicked off you too

605
00:53:00.519 --> 00:53:06.320
for our channel, right right?
Wow, this is absolutely this is strange.

606
00:53:07.320 --> 00:53:10.239
Well I'm glad you got the information
out, Jason, And let me

607
00:53:10.320 --> 00:53:14.400
let me just ask you, Jason. You know, as as David knows,

608
00:53:14.519 --> 00:53:17.079
a lot of people were introduced to
you because of your great work in

609
00:53:17.119 --> 00:53:24.079
the military to try to work to
get people informed about how they could get

610
00:53:24.519 --> 00:53:35.039
exceptions exemptions to the job. Tell
people about what you're seeing now with the

611
00:53:35.159 --> 00:53:40.559
jabs and the military, and what
the status is for people who are in

612
00:53:40.679 --> 00:53:47.159
there now or the military asking people
to come back. Is it still mandatory

613
00:53:47.199 --> 00:53:52.639
for people in the military to have
to get the mRNA JAB Can they get

614
00:53:52.679 --> 00:53:57.800
these exceptions these exemptions? Is it
still pretty much the way it was when

615
00:53:57.840 --> 00:54:00.039
you left? Or is it that
they're not going to be mandating them and

616
00:54:00.039 --> 00:54:04.400
they're asking these people to come back. So, as far as I know,

617
00:54:04.480 --> 00:54:08.519
it's not mandated anymore. It's been
repealed. There was an executive order

618
00:54:08.559 --> 00:54:13.519
that they pretty much pull the plug
on, but you know, they still

619
00:54:13.800 --> 00:54:15.360
suggest it. You know, they
want people to do the right thing,

620
00:54:15.400 --> 00:54:20.039
and so they say the right thing. But the problem is that's that that

621
00:54:20.159 --> 00:54:23.320
particular vaccine. What happens when it's
another vaccine, right, you know?

622
00:54:23.480 --> 00:54:27.760
And and I think the people they're
not getting the numbers they need right now

623
00:54:28.079 --> 00:54:30.280
because people are a little bit bitter
about it. You might get a couple

624
00:54:30.239 --> 00:54:32.880
of people that go back in because
you know, they got to feed their

625
00:54:32.920 --> 00:54:37.639
families. We got this massive inflation
going on right now, and people may

626
00:54:37.639 --> 00:54:39.760
have gotten out and maybe they couldn't
get a good job, so some of

627
00:54:39.800 --> 00:54:44.159
them may go back. But I
think it's gonna be like a last resort

628
00:54:44.199 --> 00:54:46.880
thing for them, because you know, we got treated really bad, like

629
00:54:47.079 --> 00:54:51.000
really bad. I'm not just talking
about people that got kicked out. It's

630
00:54:51.000 --> 00:54:52.440
like while you were in we got
treated bad, right, you know,

631
00:54:52.800 --> 00:54:57.559
like a second class citizen. But
there's nothing to stop them from just rolling

632
00:54:57.559 --> 00:55:01.199
out a different vaccine and making that
man. Which is again, I've taken

633
00:55:01.239 --> 00:55:04.679
a lot of vaccines in the military, and I didn't have a problem with

634
00:55:04.719 --> 00:55:07.679
it. I kind of would now
now that I know more about vaccines.

635
00:55:07.960 --> 00:55:10.719
But it was the fact that it
was an mRNA and I knew it was

636
00:55:10.800 --> 00:55:14.800
not good. So that's why,
you know, I really dug into that

637
00:55:14.800 --> 00:55:17.599
one. And then I found out
about about you know, the using the

638
00:55:17.840 --> 00:55:22.719
hamburger they call them the BLT mice
when they spliced baby parts in it.

639
00:55:23.400 --> 00:55:25.719
No, I can't do this.
I can't be part of this. Well,

640
00:55:25.760 --> 00:55:30.679
I'm sure it'll be fine in the
future. They'll just aerosolize it and

641
00:55:30.679 --> 00:55:32.320
everything would be totally fine for you. You know, they'll put it in

642
00:55:32.440 --> 00:55:35.639
dust in the air, and you
know, Jason, the thing that gets

643
00:55:35.679 --> 00:55:37.719
me is I was the same as
you you know, as you know,

644
00:55:37.760 --> 00:55:42.559
I had to take hydroxychloroquin in the
nineties because I had an elevated immune system,

645
00:55:43.000 --> 00:55:47.320
so I understand what autoimmune diseases are
like. You know, I've met

646
00:55:47.320 --> 00:55:52.599
tons of people with loopus. I've
met women who have had reactions to silicone

647
00:55:52.599 --> 00:55:55.079
breast implants, the Dow Corning silicone, which they knew in the sixties,

648
00:55:55.159 --> 00:55:59.880
was an adjuvant that would spur up
the immune system and cause loopus like symptoms.

649
00:56:00.119 --> 00:56:05.440
They knew it. They knew this
stuff. And what I found just

650
00:56:05.599 --> 00:56:10.519
absolutely disturbing was I knew that the
mRNA could could inspire transfaction and get into

651
00:56:10.599 --> 00:56:15.840
the cells and start making the body
its own machine against itself. So there

652
00:56:15.880 --> 00:56:17.400
was no way I was going to
take one of those things. That's exactly

653
00:56:17.440 --> 00:56:21.880
what I thought would happen as well. When you talk about and like David

654
00:56:21.920 --> 00:56:23.119
always says, and like I always
say, how do you turn it off?

655
00:56:23.559 --> 00:56:27.599
And if you're constantly making an enemy
to fight, it's almost like the

656
00:56:27.840 --> 00:56:30.559
United States government, you know,
we're going to create our own enemies to

657
00:56:30.559 --> 00:56:34.760
fight. That's what your body is
doing. Yeah, yeah, absolutely,

658
00:56:34.920 --> 00:56:37.320
absolutely, Well Jason, Look,
I will let you go, but I

659
00:56:37.360 --> 00:56:42.159
want to wish you a Mary Mary
happy happy New Year, and let me

660
00:56:42.239 --> 00:56:45.639
just ask you what do you like
to do on New Year's Day? As

661
00:56:45.000 --> 00:56:49.440
maybe Bono would sing, is all
quiet on New Year's Day? Or what

662
00:56:49.480 --> 00:56:52.760
do you do? It's going to
be quiet around here. I'm gonna be

663
00:56:52.760 --> 00:56:54.519
watching these guys. They're building a
new shed for me outside, so I'll

664
00:56:54.559 --> 00:56:58.679
be watching them do the work and
you know, kind of geeking out on

665
00:56:58.719 --> 00:57:01.440
the heavy equipment. They kind of
like this stuff. Oh that's great stuff,

666
00:57:01.480 --> 00:57:07.920
man, And congratulations on doing what
you did, and thank you for

667
00:57:07.000 --> 00:57:10.840
doing what you did in the military. I can't you know, I can't

668
00:57:10.880 --> 00:57:14.960
speak for others in the military,
but I can speak as a person who

669
00:57:15.039 --> 00:57:19.519
saw a man of principle acting on
principle. And I know my dad served

670
00:57:19.519 --> 00:57:21.880
in the Navy. If he were
around today, I think he would have

671
00:57:22.000 --> 00:57:24.280
asked me to thank you as well. And he would have stood up in

672
00:57:24.320 --> 00:57:28.559
your presence and approached you. Even
though he had a bum hit towards towards

673
00:57:28.599 --> 00:57:30.039
the end of his life, he
would have stood up and greeted you at

674
00:57:30.039 --> 00:57:32.320
the door and said thank you,
sir. Well, I do want to

675
00:57:32.360 --> 00:57:37.280
say one thing. My friend Zach, he made it. He didn't get

676
00:57:37.280 --> 00:57:40.800
the shot, and you know that
support he was my first battle buddy or

677
00:57:40.840 --> 00:57:45.039
my first deployment battle buddy, that
he spent time with me downrange and we

678
00:57:45.119 --> 00:57:49.000
talked to each other. And without
that support network, there were people in

679
00:57:49.000 --> 00:57:51.400
there who did support me. I
don't know if I could have made it,

680
00:57:52.239 --> 00:57:53.320
and I'm glad to hear that he's
going to make it. He put

681
00:57:53.360 --> 00:57:58.639
in his retirement paperwork and he's got
like maybe a month left and he will

682
00:57:58.760 --> 00:58:02.039
get his retirement and he'd get the
shot. So there were people that did

683
00:58:02.039 --> 00:58:05.280
it. I'm not the only one. There were people out there, so

684
00:58:05.480 --> 00:58:09.119
hats off to them and salute to
them. Well, hats off to you,

685
00:58:09.239 --> 00:58:12.639
Jason. I've got the hat over
there. And it was funny,

686
00:58:12.679 --> 00:58:15.480
Jason. You know, I put
the hat on earlier today just to see

687
00:58:15.519 --> 00:58:20.559
if I looked completely ridiculous with the
bald head, and and you know it

688
00:58:20.679 --> 00:58:22.239
is. You know, the lighting
I keep it and it's a little bit

689
00:58:22.280 --> 00:58:25.920
low here. It's not super super
bright. That the screen provides certain lighting

690
00:58:27.000 --> 00:58:30.159
based on whatever screen you're looking at. If you're if you're watching a very

691
00:58:30.239 --> 00:58:32.440
bright screen, then of course you'll
be more lit up like this, that

692
00:58:32.559 --> 00:58:36.800
sort of thing. So I had
it on. I was like, yeah,

693
00:58:36.800 --> 00:58:38.840
I look like I'm from a Dickens
story. But I wanted to do

694
00:58:38.960 --> 00:58:45.840
something special and something fun. And
I appreciate everything that you've done, sir,

695
00:58:45.079 --> 00:58:49.480
and my hat is off to you. It's great to know you're here.

696
00:58:49.519 --> 00:58:51.360
And by the way, after I
take the hat off, I get

697
00:58:51.400 --> 00:58:53.840
a little red mark there, so
maybe it's just my brain burn it up.

698
00:58:53.960 --> 00:58:58.159
I really appreciate everything you've done.
Jason Happy twenty twenty four. Brother,

699
00:58:58.440 --> 00:59:00.719
all right, take care of guard
event, you got it, Jason

700
00:59:00.760 --> 00:59:07.440
Barker good Man, good Man,
and I want to continue with our coverage

701
00:59:07.480 --> 00:59:10.760
of some of what is happening in
the Middle East, and so for that,

702
00:59:12.000 --> 00:59:17.440
I want to now turn to more
from the Gray Zone, as they

703
00:59:17.440 --> 00:59:27.280
give us some insight into what happens
behind the scenes there that sometimes we might

704
00:59:27.320 --> 00:59:31.599
not see, but because there are
cameras available now we can't. And of

705
00:59:31.639 --> 00:59:36.320
course this is some heavy stuff.
And in a little bit will be hopefully

706
00:59:36.440 --> 00:59:42.119
joined by by Eric Peters. And
I see someone's trying to reach me on

707
00:59:42.159 --> 00:59:44.599
my phone, so we'll see whether
they're not. Eric Peters can join us.

708
00:59:45.000 --> 00:59:49.320
But here is a little something more
from the Gray Zone, this area

709
00:59:49.360 --> 00:59:53.079
called the Philadelphia Corridormember, you probably
you know about that Democrat. I remember

710
00:59:53.519 --> 00:59:59.119
back in the day democracy now,
they always used to report on Israel's One

711
00:59:59.119 --> 01:00:05.880
of the only networks than reporting on
Israel's occupation of this area between Gaza's Rafa

712
01:00:05.960 --> 01:00:09.519
City and the Egyptian side, the
Philadelphia Quarter. That's where Rachel Corey was

713
01:00:09.599 --> 01:00:14.840
killed. The bulldozers were taking out
all the homes there. That's when they

714
01:00:14.880 --> 01:00:17.559
created that corridor. So if the
Israeli military gets there again, they can

715
01:00:17.679 --> 01:00:25.679
trap the Palestinian population there and then
and put political pressure on Egypt and say

716
01:00:25.760 --> 01:00:30.599
we're not going to you're all dying. You need to get out to Egypt.

717
01:00:30.920 --> 01:00:34.119
We're only going to let this happen
if you take hundreds of thousands of

718
01:00:34.159 --> 01:00:37.800
people. And then they start to
drain the sea because they couldn't catch the

719
01:00:37.880 --> 01:00:42.760
fish, and they assume that Hamas
will be drained as well, because they

720
01:00:42.880 --> 01:00:46.400
are the people. They're among the
people. So the strategy in this three

721
01:00:46.639 --> 01:00:52.800
tiered military assault on Gaza, which
has not achieved its objectives yet, the

722
01:00:52.840 --> 01:00:59.039
strategy is genocide, and we need
to see it for what it is.

723
01:00:59.320 --> 01:01:02.239
The hospital are key to that because
without the hospitals, there's no way of

724
01:01:02.280 --> 01:01:08.159
anyone getting treatment unless they go out
to Egypt. You know, Maxim on

725
01:01:08.199 --> 01:01:14.039
your point about Hamasa's fighting capabilities,
I'm wondering if you saw this quote from

726
01:01:15.480 --> 01:01:20.119
Guiora Island, who's a retired major
general, former head of Visual's Nationalist Curity

727
01:01:20.199 --> 01:01:22.840
Council. He said, from a
professional point of view, I must give

728
01:01:22.880 --> 01:01:28.960
credit to their resilience. I cannot
see any signs of collapse of the military

729
01:01:29.000 --> 01:01:32.719
abilities of Hamas, nor in their
political strength to continue to leave Gaza.

730
01:01:34.559 --> 01:01:37.599
Yeah, that's Jiorailand, who is
a former major general, very high ranking

731
01:01:37.639 --> 01:01:44.679
figure in the Israeli military, who's
now at the Israeli state sponsored think tank,

732
01:01:44.719 --> 01:01:50.119
the Institute for National Security Studies,
And he's the guy who, by

733
01:01:50.119 --> 01:01:57.000
the way, recommended that Israel create
not only famine, but spawn disease across

734
01:01:57.039 --> 01:02:00.119
Gaza to force the population to leave. But you know, I mean,

735
01:02:00.119 --> 01:02:07.960
you get candor from these characters,
and he is acknowledging that Hamas cannot be

736
01:02:08.320 --> 01:02:13.400
militarily defeated, it can't be confronted
head on. But if you understand who

737
01:02:13.440 --> 01:02:19.960
Giora Eland is, I mean,
this is someone who's always recommended disproportionate force

738
01:02:20.000 --> 01:02:23.559
against civilians, then you understand he's
not calling for an end to the war

739
01:02:23.719 --> 01:02:29.760
or a ceasefire. He's calling for
an intensification of the war against civilians.

740
01:02:30.840 --> 01:02:36.119
You know, at the same time, you have this acknowledgment that wasn't present

741
01:02:36.159 --> 01:02:42.599
before among key veterans, like the
highest ranking figures in the Israeli military elite,

742
01:02:43.159 --> 01:02:50.800
that the objective of eradicating Hamas or
defeating Hamas, as the US and

743
01:02:50.840 --> 01:02:55.159
the Biden administration understand it, is
delusional. Here's Dan Halutes, the former

744
01:02:55.239 --> 01:03:01.360
Israeli Army Chief of Staff, former
had of the Israeli Air Force. He

745
01:03:02.079 --> 01:03:07.960
says that Israel has lost the war
against Hamas and Gozli. He means they've

746
01:03:07.000 --> 01:03:10.440
lost the military war. And he
said that the real victory will be the

747
01:03:10.480 --> 01:03:17.360
removal of Netin Yahoo. Who oh, there's a consensus within the Israeli military

748
01:03:17.400 --> 01:03:23.480
intelligence apparatus, the military elite that
Netsin Yahoo is at fault for October seventh

749
01:03:23.519 --> 01:03:30.280
and for this failure, and they
want him out. Here's one more.

750
01:03:30.480 --> 01:03:37.880
This is Michael Michael Millstein, former
senior Israeli intelligence officer, criticizing statements from

751
01:03:37.920 --> 01:03:39.639
Israel leaders that Hamas is at a
breaking point. He said, quote,

752
01:03:39.800 --> 01:03:44.400
They've been saying this for a while
that Hamas is collapsing, but it's just

753
01:03:44.519 --> 01:03:54.119
not true. Every day we're facing
tough battles. Yeah, and the question

754
01:03:54.280 --> 01:04:01.599
is how much longer can Israel go
tempting to implement this three tiered plan while

755
01:04:01.639 --> 01:04:06.400
it's taking so many casualties in the
Gaza Strip. This is a very casualty

756
01:04:06.440 --> 01:04:14.079
advert society. I always make the
point that Israel pioneered UAV unmanned aerial vehicle

757
01:04:14.239 --> 01:04:21.199
drone technology because it could not withstand
casualties. This started during the Lebanon invasion.

758
01:04:21.719 --> 01:04:29.960
When it entered the Lebanese Civil War. It disrupts Israeli politics and Israeli

759
01:04:29.960 --> 01:04:33.360
society too much to take hundreds of
casualties. They're now well over the one

760
01:04:33.360 --> 01:04:39.800
to sixty mark, and they're hiding
casualties. For sure. Many of the

761
01:04:39.840 --> 01:04:43.880
casualties they're hiding are people on the
verge of death on Israel, in Israeli

762
01:04:43.920 --> 01:04:49.559
hospitals which have the highest level of
technology and are keeping likely hundreds of men

763
01:04:49.639 --> 01:04:56.320
barely alive. We'll pause it right
there. Obviously, very terrible stuff to

764
01:04:56.400 --> 01:05:03.920
see, and of course they there
are more points to bring up that I

765
01:05:04.079 --> 01:05:09.039
want to discuss in a more philosophical
way. When we talk about war,

766
01:05:10.440 --> 01:05:20.920
the idea of warfare percolates to use
that term all through philosophy, going back

767
01:05:20.960 --> 01:05:26.599
to people like John Locke. And
I'll just mention this now and I'll bring

768
01:05:26.639 --> 01:05:29.840
this up again later in the program
here in the David Night Show. I'm

769
01:05:29.840 --> 01:05:33.559
Gardner Goldsmith filling in for David Knight
here on this first of twenty twenty four,

770
01:05:34.159 --> 01:05:39.559
and I just want to mention John
Locke, in his second Treatise of

771
01:05:39.599 --> 01:05:45.519
Government, tried to arrange what he
thought was a logical, syllogistic approach towards

772
01:05:45.599 --> 01:05:51.360
the justification for the state. He
is called a natural rights philosopher, but

773
01:05:51.519 --> 01:05:57.039
he actually is not. He actually
is coming up with natural rights excuses and

774
01:05:57.119 --> 01:06:01.440
beards for the so called social contract, which is actually a government imposition.

775
01:06:01.559 --> 01:06:06.159
It's not a contract in any way
whatsoever in society outside of the state.

776
01:06:06.800 --> 01:06:13.519
Society is the set of bonds and
cures, the cultural things that we create

777
01:06:13.559 --> 01:06:21.320
ourselves through voluntary interaction. That's society. Philosophically and in linguistics, government is

778
01:06:21.599 --> 01:06:26.960
or the state. The police is
that which requires us to join it.

779
01:06:26.960 --> 01:06:30.119
It's that which is the political entity
and forces us to pay for it.

780
01:06:30.119 --> 01:06:38.519
It is involuntary. So if we
look at the impositions on society, it

781
01:06:38.639 --> 01:06:45.079
is always understandable and arguable to say
that the state is sociopathic. It runs

782
01:06:45.199 --> 01:06:50.119
contrary to that which we can create
ourselves through society, and it is always

783
01:06:50.119 --> 01:06:55.800
imposed on us against our will.
So Locke tried to come up with a

784
01:06:56.159 --> 01:07:00.320
justification, claiming that if we lived
in the so called state of nature,

785
01:07:00.880 --> 01:07:05.400
we would be at each other's throats
and we would be in what he called

786
01:07:05.440 --> 01:07:11.039
a state of war against each other. And so he then came up with

787
01:07:11.079 --> 01:07:15.119
his excuse, which was and it
was erroneous and erroneous statement. He says,

788
01:07:15.119 --> 01:07:19.679
therefore, people come together to form
the state for their mutual protection.

789
01:07:20.119 --> 01:07:24.480
Well, if it is voluntary,
it's not a state. That's actually a

790
01:07:24.519 --> 01:07:28.599
business arrangement. We're coming together to
form our own arrangement. That's voluntary.

791
01:07:28.599 --> 01:07:31.440
It's not a state. That's an
agreement, that's a club, it's whatever.

792
01:07:31.960 --> 01:07:35.719
It's not the state. The state
exists when there is someone forced to

793
01:07:35.719 --> 01:07:38.960
pay for it, when there is
someone who doesn't want to be part of

794
01:07:39.000 --> 01:07:43.920
it, that is the state.
And so he claims that they come together

795
01:07:44.119 --> 01:07:47.599
to stop this state of war where
people can pray on each other, perpetual

796
01:07:47.679 --> 01:07:54.400
predation within the state of nature.
But what he doesn't understand is from within

797
01:07:54.440 --> 01:07:57.519
the state of nature, we can
come up with our own arrangements, and

798
01:07:57.559 --> 01:08:00.840
we often do. We don't necessarily
not have rules in the state of nature.

799
01:08:01.840 --> 01:08:06.679
The rules are imposed on us under
the state, which means that the

800
01:08:06.679 --> 01:08:13.719
state is perpetual war against us.
The state is the very thing that John

801
01:08:13.760 --> 01:08:20.960
Locke claimed the state was there to
prevent predation, perpetual predation. I want

802
01:08:20.960 --> 01:08:24.880
to take an opportunity now to give
you a little something for the holiday,

803
01:08:25.840 --> 01:08:30.520
last bit of music that I think
you might enjoy, and also to bring

804
01:08:30.600 --> 01:08:34.520
up something from David Night a little
bit later. But right now I put

805
01:08:34.560 --> 01:08:44.119
together a little something that you might
like. And since we're closing off the

806
01:08:44.159 --> 01:10:05.680
holidays here it is Hey no,
hell no, hell no, h h

807
01:10:33.159 --> 01:10:36.680
Happy New Year everyone. You know, it's funny looking at the animals there.

808
01:10:39.079 --> 01:10:42.520
I actually I remember a lot of
my dreams, and I dreamt that

809
01:10:43.600 --> 01:10:48.119
a carousel cat, which is an
African cat that they've domestic and domesticated.

810
01:10:48.159 --> 01:10:53.960
In some cases they actually have a
an overabundance of them. They kill a

811
01:10:54.000 --> 01:11:00.439
lot of fowl in Africa that they
would rather see alive. I dreamt that

812
01:11:00.479 --> 01:11:04.000
a characal cat had come into our
house and was sleeping on my pillow and

813
01:11:04.279 --> 01:11:08.920
was it was wild, but for
some reason it got along great with me

814
01:11:09.239 --> 01:11:11.760
and it was playing around with me
and stuff, and I thought, oh,

815
01:11:11.800 --> 01:11:15.760
this is terrific. So with those
with those dreams in mind, I

816
01:11:15.880 --> 01:11:20.920
just want to bring back the concept
that the idea that the state is your

817
01:11:20.960 --> 01:11:28.439
friend is a dream, and the
idea that the state when they say Israel

818
01:11:28.520 --> 01:11:33.239
has a right to protect itself,
which later on Liberty Conspiracy, i'll play

819
01:11:33.239 --> 01:11:41.079
you some of the vivik Ramashwami argument
about that that is an erroneous statement.

820
01:11:41.399 --> 01:11:45.920
No state has any rights, only
individuals have rights. So finally, to

821
01:11:46.000 --> 01:11:49.399
round things up, before we were
joined by Eric Peters, and it was

822
01:11:49.479 --> 01:11:53.000
my mistake. I didn't send Eric
the right link to be able to hook

823
01:11:53.079 --> 01:11:58.119
up up with us on video,
and I'll be apologetic to Eric. Thank

824
01:11:58.159 --> 01:12:04.520
you for joining us. Eric.
But here is Max Bumenthal talking about the

825
01:12:04.640 --> 01:12:20.560
right for Israel to exist. Oh
sorry about that. That's that's Aaron Monte.

826
01:12:20.680 --> 01:12:23.880
By the way. Let me go
back because you're not seeing the screen.

827
01:12:24.680 --> 01:12:27.600
Okay, there we go. Yeah, all right, here we go,

828
01:12:29.399 --> 01:12:32.920
well, recognize Israel's so called right
to exist. Why should anybody have

829
01:12:33.039 --> 01:12:39.560
to affirm the right to exist of
this insane state that is hell bent on

830
01:12:39.720 --> 01:12:44.279
killing everybody that's not in its own
ethnic group. It's just such an insane

831
01:12:44.319 --> 01:12:46.680
demand. And that's a demand that
guarantees there will never be any peace because

832
01:12:47.560 --> 01:12:50.880
you know, people have the right
to exist, there's another right to exist,

833
01:12:51.000 --> 01:12:57.640
especially if their existence is premise on
destroying everyone else's existence. And so

834
01:12:58.039 --> 01:13:02.760
Biden is complicit in all this,
and they've decided they're gonna just you know,

835
01:13:02.800 --> 01:13:05.960
it doesn't matter to them, even
though Biden's approval ratings now are the

836
01:13:06.000 --> 01:13:12.199
lowest of any modern presidency heading into
a tough election. That Gallopers put that

837
01:13:12.279 --> 01:13:16.199
out, they don't care that.
That's how commitdity is to who ISRAELI dominant?

838
01:13:17.600 --> 01:13:21.319
Yeah, I mean what they don't
have. It shows they don't have

839
01:13:21.359 --> 01:13:27.479
a right to exist. I mean, first of all, states, countries,

840
01:13:27.520 --> 01:13:31.119
they don't have rights like individuals do. That's just phony. So Israel's

841
01:13:31.159 --> 01:13:35.199
right to self defense, these are
just phony talking points. But when when

842
01:13:35.199 --> 01:13:39.359
they say Israel's right to exist,
they don't mean a right to exist,

843
01:13:39.399 --> 01:13:45.800
They mean a right to exist as
a Jewish exclusivist apartheid state. The Palestinian

844
01:13:45.840 --> 01:13:51.159
Liberation Organization in nineteen eighty eight,
ahead of Sorry in nineteen ninety, ahead

845
01:13:51.159 --> 01:14:00.479
of the Madrid Talks the beginning of
the failed and calamitous peace process, recognize

846
01:14:00.680 --> 01:14:03.960
Israel's right to exist, but they
would not recognize Israel's right to exist as

847
01:14:03.960 --> 01:14:12.079
a Jewish state. Why because well, just within Israel's nineteen forty eight borders,

848
01:14:12.079 --> 01:14:15.640
to the extent they even exist,
there are some one point five to

849
01:14:15.680 --> 01:14:26.359
two million Palestinian citizens who would whose
rights would be formally subjugated if the Palestinian

850
01:14:26.720 --> 01:14:32.159
authority, representing its Palestinians before the
world, were to recognize Israel as a

851
01:14:32.199 --> 01:14:35.720
so called Jewish state. And then
you have it. I believe it there,

852
01:14:35.760 --> 01:14:40.800
folks. And of course the main
point there is that then goes to

853
01:14:40.920 --> 01:14:46.119
the personal rights of individuals to defend
themselves. The way people conflate we civilians,

854
01:14:46.279 --> 01:14:50.640
us civilians with the state. Even
some of the foreign terrorists who have

855
01:14:50.800 --> 01:14:55.640
been caught and have been actually real
terrorists, they think the same thing that

856
01:14:55.680 --> 01:14:58.840
the government is by the people for
the people of the people, which it

857
01:14:58.880 --> 01:15:01.319
is not. And so I need
to make sure that I mentioned that in

858
01:15:01.720 --> 01:15:06.600
so many areas of our lives,
the ability to control our own lives has

859
01:15:06.640 --> 01:15:12.840
been taken from us, you know, whether it's communications being run by the

860
01:15:12.920 --> 01:15:15.560
FCC, or its products that you
buy, or even the way that those

861
01:15:15.600 --> 01:15:20.159
products are transported, or that even
now the cars they're going after our cars,

862
01:15:20.560 --> 01:15:25.840
which actually is a pretty darn good
transition for our guest, who has

863
01:15:26.279 --> 01:15:30.479
pulled through despite my earlier error,
and should have been with us about ten

864
01:15:30.479 --> 01:15:35.119
o'clock today, but I didn't send
them the right link, and so we

865
01:15:35.239 --> 01:15:40.920
get to introduce with a nice theme, a man who can talk about being

866
01:15:41.000 --> 01:15:47.359
on the road all the road again. I just can't wait to get all

867
01:15:47.399 --> 01:15:55.199
the road again. A lovel is
making use with friends. I can't wait

868
01:15:55.239 --> 01:16:00.520
to get all the road again.
All the road again, go and play.

869
01:16:02.479 --> 01:16:05.960
Thank you, Willie Nelson, And
now let's bring in our guest.

870
01:16:06.119 --> 01:16:12.399
He is none other than Eric Peters
of Eric Peters Autos, and he is

871
01:16:12.560 --> 01:16:16.479
a very decent man for coming in
the way he has Eric. Welcome and

872
01:16:16.560 --> 01:16:20.359
happy New Year. I'm so glad
that I get to see you, and

873
01:16:20.399 --> 01:16:25.439
I apologized for messing up on the
link earlier, and even night It's okay

874
01:16:25.479 --> 01:16:28.600
at least we were able to fix
it between ourselves, unlike that Dodge Dark

875
01:16:28.680 --> 01:16:33.439
that I had to deal with last
week. Tell people what you experienced.

876
01:16:33.560 --> 01:16:36.239
This is beautiful. Oh it was
incredible. Okay, So you know,

877
01:16:36.520 --> 01:16:40.880
the test car, the car that
I was test driving for purposes of reviewing

878
01:16:40.960 --> 01:16:44.520
last week, was a brand new
twenty twenty four Dodge Dart. First couple

879
01:16:44.560 --> 01:16:47.000
of days went fine. The third
day I went out to drive it and

880
01:16:47.319 --> 01:16:50.359
it wouldn't start. You pushed the
star's button and the headlights flashed, and

881
01:16:50.439 --> 01:16:56.199
so my immediate instinctual response was,
okay, probably has a dead and or

882
01:16:56.279 --> 01:16:58.720
weak battery. So I go to
my toolbox, I get out the old

883
01:16:58.760 --> 01:17:01.000
multimeter and I checked the backattery and
sure enough, it's down to nine volts.

884
01:17:01.119 --> 01:17:03.239
For whatever reason. Now it's a
brand new car, you'd think it

885
01:17:03.239 --> 01:17:05.640
has a brand new battery. Why
is the battery low? But in any

886
01:17:05.640 --> 01:17:10.880
event, the battery is low,
and typically with modern computer controlled cars,

887
01:17:11.319 --> 01:17:15.279
if the computer doesn't sense twelve volts
at the battery, sometimes it won't even

888
01:17:15.319 --> 01:17:18.720
try to start because the fuel injection
won't work without full voltage. So at

889
01:17:18.720 --> 01:17:23.680
any rate, I did what you
know, a few years ago would have

890
01:17:23.720 --> 01:17:26.640
been the reasonable thing to do,
which is to charge up the battery.

891
01:17:27.119 --> 01:17:30.840
So I hooked it up to my
trickle charger and in the process I disconnected

892
01:17:30.880 --> 01:17:34.039
and this is going to become important. I disconnected the negative cable. Okay,

893
01:17:34.560 --> 01:17:38.239
Then when I charged up the battery, it was showing twelve volts.

894
01:17:38.279 --> 01:17:42.640
I put the negative cable back on
the battery and the car went berserk.

895
01:17:43.600 --> 01:17:48.399
Lights flashing, alarms clanging, all
the lights on the interior dashboard flashing on

896
01:17:48.479 --> 01:17:54.800
and off. Apparently it has some
kind of cataleptic response to any interruption of

897
01:17:54.800 --> 01:17:57.600
its voltage. Now, initially I
thought, okay, I just need to

898
01:17:57.600 --> 01:18:00.720
know the secret process. Sometimes you
have, like on the key you can

899
01:18:00.760 --> 01:18:02.920
push the lock, unlock the panic
button in a certain sequence to get the

900
01:18:02.920 --> 01:18:06.000
alarm to shut off. I tied
that to no avail. It would not

901
01:18:06.119 --> 01:18:11.520
work. Could not find any procedure
in the owner's manual or anywhere else.

902
01:18:11.880 --> 01:18:16.199
So I called up the press fleet
company, which then in turn called up

903
01:18:16.239 --> 01:18:19.640
Dodge Engineering, you know, to
try to figure out what was wrong with

904
01:18:19.800 --> 01:18:25.960
the miss directly in communication with the
manufacturer. And long story short that once

905
01:18:26.000 --> 01:18:30.680
the vehicle has this interruption of current, you lose. You can't fix it.

906
01:18:30.760 --> 01:18:33.520
You have to have it dragged to
the dealer. Wow, to get

907
01:18:33.600 --> 01:18:38.319
them to I guess, reboot the
computer. And you have to have specialized

908
01:18:38.319 --> 01:18:41.760
equipment in order to do that.
So word to the wise, you know,

909
01:18:41.840 --> 01:18:45.840
do not disconnect the battery of a
modern computer controlled car unless you're ready

910
01:18:45.840 --> 01:18:47.840
for some pretty serious for your percussions. And then I found out something even

911
01:18:47.840 --> 01:18:51.199
more interesting, And I did not
know this. You know, you have

912
01:18:51.239 --> 01:18:55.079
to keep up with things, and
even I sometimes don't keep up with things.

913
01:18:55.319 --> 01:18:59.920
So why did the battery have less
than twelve volts current to begin with?

914
01:19:00.119 --> 01:19:02.279
New car, new battery? Well, it turns out that the culprit

915
01:19:02.399 --> 01:19:06.399
was probably the second battery. HU. This is not an electric car,

916
01:19:06.479 --> 01:19:12.439
but nonetheless it had two batteries.
The main twelve volt starter battery that we're

917
01:19:12.479 --> 01:19:15.359
all familiar with that starts the engine
when you push the button or turn the

918
01:19:15.439 --> 01:19:18.279
key. But in addition to that, these new cars that have automated stop

919
01:19:18.439 --> 01:19:25.960
start technology as they market it,
the acronym being s ASS, have a

920
01:19:26.000 --> 01:19:30.479
secondary battery that is designed to operate
with that system because of those you know,

921
01:19:30.479 --> 01:19:32.960
those repeated stop start cycles. You
know that that's hard on a battery,

922
01:19:33.039 --> 01:19:38.039
right, The understanding of the thing
is that you know if that is

923
01:19:38.119 --> 01:19:42.880
going to create a power draw.
So if that draws enough power from the

924
01:19:42.920 --> 01:19:45.680
battery and the battery hasn't had enough
time to recharge from driving, you might

925
01:19:45.760 --> 01:19:50.520
see this reduction in the battery the
nin starter batteries voltage and then could put

926
01:19:50.560 --> 01:19:54.439
the car doesn't work. And then
when that happens, if you do something

927
01:19:55.600 --> 01:19:58.640
like pull the take the cables off
the battery, then you have to have

928
01:19:58.680 --> 01:20:00.560
a car drag to a dealer to
get it fixed. That's progress for you.

929
01:20:00.640 --> 01:20:05.920
Huh, oh man, I have
to. I want to show people

930
01:20:06.000 --> 01:20:11.600
the website, uh, because I
love this. We're speaking with Eric Peters

931
01:20:11.640 --> 01:20:15.399
of Eric Peters Autos. Folks,
It's Eric Peters Autos dot com. I'm

932
01:20:15.399 --> 01:20:18.319
Gardner Goldsmith Filion for David Knight,
and Eric Peters is with us. And

933
01:20:18.359 --> 01:20:24.119
you had it had to be dragged. When my computer crashes, I called

934
01:20:24.159 --> 01:20:28.840
dose techies and you talk. This
is an update a final report about the

935
01:20:28.880 --> 01:20:31.520
issue experience with the new car twenty
twenty four Dodge Hornet. I was test

936
01:20:31.640 --> 01:20:38.560
driving. Just a dead battery,
just ridiculous, unbelievable, and as you

937
01:20:38.640 --> 01:20:43.479
say, the car had to be
flatbedded to the dealer to deal with it.

938
01:20:43.880 --> 01:20:46.199
And that's one of the things when
I read your articles. You have

939
01:20:46.359 --> 01:20:53.479
this sly sense of humor about all
the absurdities that you see in these designs.

940
01:20:53.640 --> 01:20:57.079
Eric, you have talked before about
the scene and the unseen in economics.

941
01:20:57.319 --> 01:20:59.960
Well, here's a really good example
of that. Now, what is

942
01:21:00.159 --> 01:21:01.800
the benefit to you and I are
anybody who buys one of these cars?

943
01:21:01.880 --> 01:21:06.239
Does the car start any better with
all of this technology? I mean I

944
01:21:06.279 --> 01:21:09.760
can get into my twenty two year
old truck, you know, and I

945
01:21:09.800 --> 01:21:14.800
turned the key and the engine starts. You know, it doesn't start any

946
01:21:14.840 --> 01:21:16.680
in any way that's inferior to the
way the new car starts, and in

947
01:21:16.680 --> 01:21:21.159
many ways it's superior because if it
doesn't start, I can disconnect your battery.

948
01:21:21.479 --> 01:21:24.960
I can put a new battery in
and the car will start. I

949
01:21:24.960 --> 01:21:28.760
don't have to call a tow truck
or roadside assistance to have the thing drag

950
01:21:28.840 --> 01:21:31.760
to a dealership. To have something
that's profoundly simple, you know, like

951
01:21:31.880 --> 01:21:36.640
changing a battery handled all a dealership
at one hundred dollars an hour. Yeah,

952
01:21:36.960 --> 01:21:40.039
I agree with you, And you
know it's interesting, Eric, you

953
01:21:40.079 --> 01:21:45.359
talk about complex integration versus simple integration, and in many in many cases,

954
01:21:45.359 --> 01:21:49.560
when you get complex integration, sometimes
you get better efficiency that sort of thing.

955
01:21:49.920 --> 01:21:56.000
But to repair something you want simple
integration. You want to be able

956
01:21:56.039 --> 01:22:00.920
to take the pieces out, replace
the pieces, get pieces work without having

957
01:22:00.960 --> 01:22:03.159
to wait a month to get a
piece in, and not have it be

958
01:22:03.359 --> 01:22:11.079
done through algorithms, every part of
which has its own piece, because there's

959
01:22:11.079 --> 01:22:14.439
no way you could do enough research
to really even understand how to make it

960
01:22:14.520 --> 01:22:18.000
work. And that's where they're going
all the time. And there's another aspect

961
01:22:18.039 --> 01:22:20.319
to this too, you know,
it's the question big which is, well,

962
01:22:20.399 --> 01:22:24.680
why, what is the reason for
all of this? And the only

963
01:22:24.760 --> 01:22:28.680
reason for it, again is the
unseen hand of government, of the regulatory

964
01:22:28.720 --> 01:22:32.640
apparat the only reason that almost all
new cars have that ass system I mentioned

965
01:22:32.680 --> 01:22:36.239
earlier, the automated stop start.
I don't know whether you've driven a late

966
01:22:36.279 --> 01:22:40.159
model car, but what happens you
come to a traffic light. Let's say

967
01:22:40.159 --> 01:22:43.560
the light's are read, The engine
shuts off automatically, you know, and

968
01:22:43.880 --> 01:22:45.960
then when you put your foot take
your foot off of the brake and put

969
01:22:45.960 --> 01:22:49.439
your foot on the gas pedal.
Then the engine restarts so in the course

970
01:22:49.439 --> 01:22:54.720
of your morning commute, the engine
might stop start a dozen times or more,

971
01:22:55.199 --> 01:22:59.960
okay, and nobody wants that.
Who wants to have that chuck feeling?

972
01:23:00.000 --> 01:23:01.600
And you know when the and as
a slight delay, you know in

973
01:23:01.640 --> 01:23:05.039
between light turns green and instead of
just you know, going, you have

974
01:23:05.119 --> 01:23:09.319
to wait that little moment for the
engine to start before the car can go.

975
01:23:09.760 --> 01:23:12.800
Nobody wants this. Nobody in the
market asked for this. So why

976
01:23:12.840 --> 01:23:15.039
do we have it? Why is
it not only in cars, but it's

977
01:23:15.039 --> 01:23:17.840
standard in cars. It's not like
it's an option. Oh, I think

978
01:23:17.880 --> 01:23:20.680
that's a great idea. I think
I'll check that box because I want a

979
01:23:20.720 --> 01:23:25.239
car to do that. The only
reason it's the new cars is because of

980
01:23:25.279 --> 01:23:30.439
the pressure that is being brought to
bear on the manufacturers of vehicles to reduce

981
01:23:30.880 --> 01:23:35.119
carbon dioxide emissions as they market that, as they prop the antie because you

982
01:23:35.119 --> 01:23:36.880
know, because when the engine is
not running, you know, you shut

983
01:23:36.880 --> 01:23:40.359
the car off at a traffic light. It's not about saving gas. This

984
01:23:40.560 --> 01:23:44.159
gas savings is true, but the
idea is that if the engine shuts off

985
01:23:44.239 --> 01:23:47.239
at a traffic light, then you
know it's at that moment a zero emissions

986
01:23:47.279 --> 01:23:53.319
in terms of carbon dioxide vehicle.
So that's one of the effects of the

987
01:23:53.319 --> 01:23:57.720
regulatory apparat that you and I get
to feel and pay for. Wow,

988
01:23:57.880 --> 01:24:03.399
you know, Eric, I got
the opportunity to tell people a little bit

989
01:24:03.479 --> 01:24:11.760
about something that al Gore is involved
with, and he is, he's part

990
01:24:11.920 --> 01:24:17.119
of and in fact he's connected with
Google on this thing called Trace that he

991
01:24:17.159 --> 01:24:20.640
puts seed money into this. Google
puts seed money into this. It is

992
01:24:20.720 --> 01:24:28.439
an online system to collect data that
now is there's a corporation and a number

993
01:24:28.479 --> 01:24:30.680
of corporations, but there's one I
wrote about this firm, our CTV.

994
01:24:31.359 --> 01:24:36.479
There's one that has been using basically
spyplanes and they want to get up with

995
01:24:36.560 --> 01:24:44.920
the EPA's help, up into satellites
to use camera technology and infrared to be

996
01:24:44.960 --> 01:24:49.479
able to detect emissions coming from virtually
anything and then report it to the EPA.

997
01:24:50.159 --> 01:24:56.560
And then the EPA without any trial, without any jurisprudence and any way

998
01:24:56.680 --> 01:25:00.199
whatsoever or due process, will just
find people for their missions. And they

999
01:25:00.319 --> 01:25:04.880
keep using this canard of the of
the so called climate, the carbon so

1000
01:25:04.960 --> 01:25:10.560
called emissions. And as you said, they don't just talk about carbon dioxide.

1001
01:25:10.640 --> 01:25:13.199
They try to make it sound like
soot, Like, oh, it's

1002
01:25:13.239 --> 01:25:16.119
carbon that's going out there, Like
this is going to destroy the La Basin

1003
01:25:16.319 --> 01:25:20.680
which they cleaned up a long time
ago. You know, it's just ridiculous

1004
01:25:20.680 --> 01:25:26.319
to see this. And they keep
putting these electronic devices in the cars that

1005
01:25:26.439 --> 01:25:30.399
will measure our output, that will
report back. And this is the way

1006
01:25:30.439 --> 01:25:33.159
that they're going. And I drew
this up on the screen. People could

1007
01:25:33.159 --> 01:25:36.159
see me drawing this up. If
you could tell us, could you tell

1008
01:25:36.239 --> 01:25:41.239
us a little bit about a preview
of things to come? This article over

1009
01:25:41.279 --> 01:25:44.000
here, and I want to show
this on the website, a preview of

1010
01:25:44.000 --> 01:25:47.079
things to come at Eric petersautos dot
com. Yeah, that's not so much

1011
01:25:47.119 --> 01:25:50.359
with regard to emissions, as they
put it. This has to do with

1012
01:25:50.520 --> 01:25:57.920
behavior. It has to do with
the pending Come twenty twenty six federal requirement

1013
01:25:58.000 --> 01:26:02.720
that cars have technology embedded in them
to deal with impaired driving. You know.

1014
01:26:02.760 --> 01:26:06.520
And again it's this sleight of hand. It's this verbiage. In fact,

1015
01:26:06.560 --> 01:26:10.159
if you dig into it, it's
not that they're going after it's so

1016
01:26:10.199 --> 01:26:14.199
called drunk drivers. And never mind
whether you've actually been convicted of drunk driving.

1017
01:26:14.199 --> 01:26:16.600
They're just going to say that everybody's
presumed to be a drunk driver.

1018
01:26:17.920 --> 01:26:23.079
In fact, it's about measuring what
they call driver performance. That's the actual

1019
01:26:23.399 --> 01:26:26.880
terminology that's used. So what does
that mean, Well, it means that

1020
01:26:26.920 --> 01:26:30.920
any performance that falls outside of the
parameters that they consider to be acceptable,

1021
01:26:30.960 --> 01:26:34.159
so driving faster than the speed limits, so you know whether you're looking at

1022
01:26:34.159 --> 01:26:38.199
the thing that they want you to
look at. I was test driving another

1023
01:26:38.279 --> 01:26:42.239
car that has elements of this technology. That's something people ought to know is

1024
01:26:42.239 --> 01:26:45.199
that the cars that are already in
production and that have been in production for

1025
01:26:45.279 --> 01:26:49.800
the past several years already have some
of the bits and pieces of this technology

1026
01:26:49.840 --> 01:26:56.039
embedded in them. For example,
this thing called a Browsy driver monitor.

1027
01:26:56.600 --> 01:27:00.960
Essentially, the car is looking at
your eyes, and if it thinks that

1028
01:27:00.000 --> 01:27:05.039
you're not looking straight ahead at all
times, this box pops up in the

1029
01:27:05.680 --> 01:27:10.680
gauge cluster that says, you know, driver in attention, detected, or

1030
01:27:10.880 --> 01:27:13.680
pay more attention, or stop for
a coffee break or something like that.

1031
01:27:13.760 --> 01:27:16.479
Now, I ride motorcycles, and
one of the reasons that I'm still alive

1032
01:27:16.520 --> 01:27:20.560
and talking to you right now is
that I maintain awareness of what's going on

1033
01:27:20.760 --> 01:27:25.560
around me, not just tumnel vision
of what's in front of me. So

1034
01:27:25.600 --> 01:27:28.479
I'll glance st left, and I'll
glance to the right, and I'll look

1035
01:27:28.520 --> 01:27:30.279
in my review mirror, or you
know, look, I'm just trying to

1036
01:27:30.319 --> 01:27:34.840
keep aware of what's around me,
right right. That's kept me from wrecking

1037
01:27:34.840 --> 01:27:40.479
a car too. But yet when
I drive these cars, I get this

1038
01:27:40.640 --> 01:27:45.159
constant cereal pop up about how I'm
drowsy and distracted because my eyes are not

1039
01:27:45.199 --> 01:27:49.199
looking tumbel visions straight ahead. Now, as annoying as that is, what's

1040
01:27:49.239 --> 01:27:53.239
going to happen come twenty twenty six
and going forward is that, in addition

1041
01:27:53.279 --> 01:27:57.479
to annoying you, it's going to
punish you. And that punishment will probably

1042
01:27:57.479 --> 01:28:00.600
come in one of two forms.
Either the car itself will somehow deactivate or

1043
01:28:00.640 --> 01:28:03.520
maybe it will go into gimp mode
and you'll be limping along the side of

1044
01:28:03.520 --> 01:28:08.479
the road at five miles an hour
or more. Probably because the car is

1045
01:28:08.479 --> 01:28:12.279
connected and it's connected to the government, the insurance mafia, you will get

1046
01:28:12.359 --> 01:28:15.279
hit with a fine or a done
every time you do something that falls outside

1047
01:28:15.279 --> 01:28:20.720
of the parameters of what they say
is safe driving. And we've seen previously

1048
01:28:20.760 --> 01:28:25.359
this with the insurance companies that will
say that we'll give you a discount if

1049
01:28:25.359 --> 01:28:28.840
you plug Thistle Jungle into your OBD
port in the car. You know,

1050
01:28:28.880 --> 01:28:31.439
And what they're doing is every single
time that you change lanes too abruptly,

1051
01:28:31.640 --> 01:28:35.760
you accelerate to aggressively, things of
that nature, you find that your insurance

1052
01:28:35.760 --> 01:28:39.520
premium has gone up. That's the
model. That's what they're going to do.

1053
01:28:39.680 --> 01:28:42.720
It doesn't matter that you don't wreck, that you never have an accident,

1054
01:28:42.760 --> 01:28:45.800
that you have a perfect driving record. I've got a thirty year record

1055
01:28:45.800 --> 01:28:49.760
of not having wrecked a car.
You know, they'll say, they'll say,

1056
01:28:49.880 --> 01:28:54.159
or your habits show that you're unsafe, and so we have to raise

1057
01:28:54.199 --> 01:28:58.000
your rates accordingly. You know,
it reminds me of in a way,

1058
01:28:58.079 --> 01:29:02.760
it reminds me of the into assert
extremes Brazil. And you know, by

1059
01:29:02.840 --> 01:29:08.640
Terry Gillian, what a brilliant,
brilliant film just you know how they controlled

1060
01:29:08.640 --> 01:29:16.760
the heating systems and it shows the
ninja black market heating AAV repair man coming

1061
01:29:16.800 --> 01:29:20.119
in in the middle of the night
to repair the guy's heating system because it

1062
01:29:20.119 --> 01:29:26.880
won't stop. And it's all run
by some interior organization. And I worked

1063
01:29:26.960 --> 01:29:30.479
at the New Hampshire Community College system
for a while. And in the springtime,

1064
01:29:30.560 --> 01:29:33.560
you know, you're coming from the
colder days, but you can get

1065
01:29:33.560 --> 01:29:39.439
some warmer days, and so you
want to be able to definitely regulate that

1066
01:29:39.479 --> 01:29:41.920
temperaure because it's going to get too
hot for the students. They're going to

1067
01:29:41.960 --> 01:29:45.720
get tired. And it was just
incredibly hot. And I asked someone else,

1068
01:29:45.800 --> 01:29:47.680
I said, where's the thermostat.
Why can't we do something? And

1069
01:29:47.720 --> 01:29:51.359
they said, oh, no,
the temperature for this building. I said

1070
01:29:51.439 --> 01:29:56.920
yeah. They said that's controlled from
the central building in the capital of the

1071
01:29:56.960 --> 01:30:00.800
state, in conquered New Hampshire,
five miles away. And I was like,

1072
01:30:01.520 --> 01:30:04.560
what this. Yeah, we can't
control the temperature in this building.

1073
01:30:04.600 --> 01:30:10.600
I was like, that is Terry
Gilliamville. That's insane. And to bring

1074
01:30:10.640 --> 01:30:13.920
it back home when you have a
person a person sort of thing, my

1075
01:30:14.039 --> 01:30:15.920
dad and I were driving along.
My dad was driving once. Eric,

1076
01:30:16.039 --> 01:30:19.960
you remind me of a little little
anecdote from from my childhood, and my

1077
01:30:20.039 --> 01:30:24.560
dad, you know, we're on
these really bad roads and he would dodge

1078
01:30:24.600 --> 01:30:28.079
potholes to save the undercarriage of the
Toyota. You know, for a while

1079
01:30:28.079 --> 01:30:30.279
we had a Renault at the torsion
bar suspension. That was very interesting,

1080
01:30:30.720 --> 01:30:33.800
and so, you know, he
would dodge the potholes, make it sort

1081
01:30:33.840 --> 01:30:38.600
of a game. He gets pulled
over and then he says, uh,

1082
01:30:38.880 --> 01:30:42.960
sir, I noticed you were driving
erratically. And he says, he goes,

1083
01:30:43.000 --> 01:30:45.640
have you been drinking? And I'm
I'm with the guy. I was

1084
01:30:45.640 --> 01:30:47.239
like. My dad says no,
you know, I was just dodging the

1085
01:30:47.239 --> 01:30:51.119
potholes. And then the police officer, to his credit, said oh,

1086
01:30:51.199 --> 01:30:55.600
I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry
about that. Yeah, the roads are

1087
01:30:55.680 --> 01:30:58.920
terrible. I'm really sorry about that, and then he went on his way.

1088
01:30:59.199 --> 01:31:04.359
You've got assist now that is building
up all these errors within programming and

1089
01:31:04.520 --> 01:31:10.239
systems permanently attached to the cars.
You can't get rid of these things.

1090
01:31:10.319 --> 01:31:14.439
Yes and fits all. You know, the story that you just told very

1091
01:31:14.439 --> 01:31:15.920
similar. In my area, the
roads are often terrible. I live in

1092
01:31:15.920 --> 01:31:19.880
a rural area, so it's common
for people to straddle the center line because

1093
01:31:19.920 --> 01:31:23.800
that way, you know, you
don't hit these bumps all the time and

1094
01:31:23.840 --> 01:31:27.920
destroy the undercarriage of your car and
your suspension, your tires. But the

1095
01:31:28.159 --> 01:31:30.880
technology is one size fits all,
you know, and it's the size of

1096
01:31:30.960 --> 01:31:34.359
the government says that you'll fit into
period, you know, and it's part

1097
01:31:34.359 --> 01:31:40.359
of this effort to manage and control
and micro control absolutely everything that we do.

1098
01:31:40.640 --> 01:31:42.880
I was listening to a new story
of the day that bears on this.

1099
01:31:43.000 --> 01:31:46.199
It had something to do with North
Korea, and the North Korean government

1100
01:31:46.239 --> 01:31:50.279
has issued its plan, you know, for the next year apparently, and

1101
01:31:50.319 --> 01:31:55.399
that's what we're talking about. There's
always a central plan controlled by central planners.

1102
01:31:55.680 --> 01:31:59.520
You and I apparently are unfit to
plan our own affairs. Everybody,

1103
01:31:59.560 --> 01:32:02.880
you know, has to be has
to be sort of compressed together and then

1104
01:32:03.239 --> 01:32:09.119
sluiced and directed in a path that
is decided by the central planners. And

1105
01:32:09.159 --> 01:32:13.760
nobody seems to ever question, well, who are these people? I mean,

1106
01:32:13.800 --> 01:32:17.760
how is it that these people somehow
have acquired the power and in some

1107
01:32:17.840 --> 01:32:21.159
sense, you know, the moral
acquiescence of people that Okay, yeah,

1108
01:32:21.199 --> 01:32:25.199
sure, you know, I'm here
just to do what you tell me to

1109
01:32:25.239 --> 01:32:28.279
do, and I'm waiting tell me
what to do, tell me how to

1110
01:32:28.319 --> 01:32:31.199
behave. It's amazing. I'm so
glad you brought up the Seinfeld thing.

1111
01:32:31.359 --> 01:32:34.359
That was one of the one of
the things I picked up from Gilbert Godfried

1112
01:32:34.560 --> 01:32:38.760
because He used to do a terrific
Seinfeld impression and he was the first person

1113
01:32:38.840 --> 01:32:43.000
I ever I ever heard do these
Seinfeld? Who are these people? You

1114
01:32:43.039 --> 01:32:46.279
know, it's the classic Seinfeld Seinfeld
line. And Eric, I want to

1115
01:32:46.319 --> 01:32:49.439
mention kudos to you also, by
the way, for putting the picture of

1116
01:32:49.439 --> 01:32:55.079
the Kawisaki over there. You mentioned
you ride bikes, and when I was

1117
01:32:55.079 --> 01:32:58.399
a kid, it was Hondas and
Kawisaki motorbikes, you know, out there

1118
01:32:58.399 --> 01:33:02.159
in the dirt and chase each other
around and stuff. And my friends had

1119
01:33:02.199 --> 01:33:05.279
those things. I was always on
the back dragging my sneakers, putting up

1120
01:33:05.359 --> 01:33:10.319
dust, dust and stuff so the
guys behind us couldn't see. I was

1121
01:33:10.359 --> 01:33:12.680
like, we're getting chased by the
cops. Come on, you know.

1122
01:33:12.800 --> 01:33:15.399
We would have races and stuff and
it was a lot of fun. And

1123
01:33:15.520 --> 01:33:18.279
also on this subject, you know, you talk about the drowsy driver thing

1124
01:33:18.319 --> 01:33:23.600
and stuff. You mentioned here.
Eric over at Eric Peters Auto's Everybody and

1125
01:33:23.680 --> 01:33:30.880
follow him at Libertarian car G Libertarian
car g on Twitter slash x. You

1126
01:33:30.960 --> 01:33:33.279
mentioned here you say about two thirds
of the way down. You say,

1127
01:33:33.319 --> 01:33:38.520
for instance, almost all cars sold
in twenty twenty three and twenty four have

1128
01:33:38.640 --> 01:33:43.439
a system that can tell whether you
have used a turn signal before making a

1129
01:33:43.520 --> 01:33:47.680
lane change. That will proceed to
correct your attempt to change lanes if you

1130
01:33:47.760 --> 01:33:53.279
haven't signal first, by electronically trying
to steer the car back into the lane

1131
01:33:53.359 --> 01:33:56.399
you're trying to leave for the one
adjacent. And I think you and David

1132
01:33:56.439 --> 01:34:00.800
had touched on this. It is
just scary to think about. And then

1133
01:34:00.840 --> 01:34:05.199
with these speed controller things that they're
going to put on various trucks that they

1134
01:34:05.199 --> 01:34:11.359
want to have, that's going to
be even more dangerous because trucks are going

1135
01:34:11.439 --> 01:34:14.359
to be side by side with each
other and they're not. They're going to

1136
01:34:14.399 --> 01:34:16.800
have a really hard time passing each
other. There's two aspects to this that

1137
01:34:16.840 --> 01:34:19.880
I think are interesting. The first
one is just the mindlessness of it.

1138
01:34:19.920 --> 01:34:23.520
Instead of being mindful. You know, some people think, well, you

1139
01:34:23.520 --> 01:34:26.840
should signal every time you turn,
but that is mindless. I think it's

1140
01:34:26.880 --> 01:34:30.920
far more. I think it's more
beneficial in sound to be aware of your

1141
01:34:31.000 --> 01:34:33.920
driving environment. If there is a
car you know, you're driving forward,

1142
01:34:33.960 --> 01:34:36.680
there's a car up ahead or adjacent
to of course, it makes sense to

1143
01:34:36.760 --> 01:34:41.520
signal your intentions, but it makes
no sense at all to signal your intentions

1144
01:34:41.520 --> 01:34:44.399
if you're clearly the only car on
the road and you're out in the middle

1145
01:34:44.439 --> 01:34:47.720
of nowhere, just because you're supposed
to Pavlovian style, like a dog,

1146
01:34:48.319 --> 01:34:51.840
be trained to do this, this
signaling, and that somehow, you know,

1147
01:34:51.880 --> 01:34:56.760
alleviates you the responsibility of being aware
of your driving environment. There's that

1148
01:34:57.119 --> 01:35:00.239
aspect of it, and there's another
aspect of it, and it's it goes

1149
01:35:00.279 --> 01:35:04.479
to these unanticipated consequences that these central
planners always neglect to plan for. It's

1150
01:35:04.520 --> 01:35:09.119
all well and good to turn your
signal when you have a planned lane change,

1151
01:35:09.399 --> 01:35:11.680
you want a plan to move into
the next line. What if a

1152
01:35:11.760 --> 01:35:14.880
kid runs out in front of your
car, an unplanned event, you know,

1153
01:35:14.920 --> 01:35:16.960
and you move the steering wheel to
get out of this to not hit

1154
01:35:17.039 --> 01:35:19.680
the kid. But now the car
is trying to fight you to get back

1155
01:35:19.680 --> 01:35:24.840
in the lane that you're trying to
steer out of. And I'm amazed that

1156
01:35:24.880 --> 01:35:27.319
there hasn't been more mayhem caused by
this. You know, I'm a man,

1157
01:35:27.399 --> 01:35:30.920
and I've got decent hand strength,
but I could just see an older

1158
01:35:30.960 --> 01:35:32.800
person, let's say, or a
woman with small hands, you know,

1159
01:35:32.840 --> 01:35:35.439
holding that steering wheel and all of
a sudden steering wheel jerkch and if you've

1160
01:35:35.479 --> 01:35:40.000
experienced it, that's what it feels
like. The steering wheel will jerk in

1161
01:35:40.039 --> 01:35:44.680
the opposite direction and it can be
really unnerving and unsettling. And it's exactly

1162
01:35:44.720 --> 01:35:47.520
the sort of thing that they used
to teach kids not to do in drivers

1163
01:35:47.560 --> 01:35:49.479
that they would tell you know,
if a wheel drops off, like if

1164
01:35:49.479 --> 01:35:54.680
you're driving down the road and the
right side wheel drops off the road and

1165
01:35:54.800 --> 01:35:56.600
you know the car will feel like
it's going to go off the road.

1166
01:35:56.640 --> 01:35:59.680
The last thing you want to do
is jerk the wheel hard. You want

1167
01:35:59.720 --> 01:36:03.239
to try to maintain the car's directional
stability and ease back into the road.

1168
01:36:03.600 --> 01:36:06.720
Well, this this countermans all of
that, and it's being done by electronics

1169
01:36:06.760 --> 01:36:13.399
and programming. It's unbelievable, you
know, Eric, you bring up so

1170
01:36:13.560 --> 01:36:18.119
many good points and I don't know
how you know, I asked you once

1171
01:36:18.279 --> 01:36:26.079
before. You write so much and
they're always fascinating, fascinating topics. And

1172
01:36:27.960 --> 01:36:31.159
how often do you shoot video?
Do you think each week? Because now

1173
01:36:31.159 --> 01:36:34.399
you're providing video and people can find
you on rumble as well, tell people

1174
01:36:34.399 --> 01:36:38.279
how they can find you. On
Rumble, and you often embed these videos

1175
01:36:38.279 --> 01:36:40.840
inside your articles, right, you
know, I'm embarrassed Dent. I don't

1176
01:36:40.840 --> 01:36:43.920
really know what my handle is.
I think it might be ethyologist on rumbled.

1177
01:36:43.920 --> 01:36:45.199
But if you go to most of
my articles, there'll be a video

1178
01:36:45.319 --> 01:36:48.640
in it, and you can you
can find it that way. But I

1179
01:36:48.680 --> 01:36:51.239
try to do a video of every
new car that I test drive, and

1180
01:36:51.279 --> 01:36:56.760
I often do monologues while I'm driving
a car about things that seem to me

1181
01:36:56.800 --> 01:37:00.000
to be important to talk about.
Well, how about we hit on this

1182
01:37:00.039 --> 01:37:03.680
one, Eric, this is another
good one. Automotive dissonance. And you

1183
01:37:03.720 --> 01:37:09.000
have the picture of the woman with
the Pinto. Keep off my rear,

1184
01:37:09.199 --> 01:37:14.560
I'm explosive, great Michigan license plate
car, probably built in Michigan, the

1185
01:37:14.640 --> 01:37:21.159
Pinto. The Pinto became, of
course synonymous with rear rear engine explosion,

1186
01:37:21.279 --> 01:37:27.520
our rear rear gas tank explosion.
And can you give people some information about

1187
01:37:27.560 --> 01:37:32.199
that and why it comes to mind
when you're thinking about evs nowadays? Sure?

1188
01:37:32.319 --> 01:37:35.239
Well, there was a big hullabaloo
back in the seventies. Ford made

1189
01:37:35.279 --> 01:37:39.920
the Pinto, which was an economy
car, and they made millions of these

1190
01:37:39.960 --> 01:37:45.640
things. Well, the initial run
of them had a poorly designed gas tank

1191
01:37:45.800 --> 01:37:48.600
filler neck. The fillert the filler
on the car was mounted on the side

1192
01:37:48.760 --> 01:37:51.920
of the car and then it went
to the gas tank, which was you

1193
01:37:51.920 --> 01:37:56.319
know, inside behind the backseat area
underneath the car. Anyway, if the

1194
01:37:56.359 --> 01:38:00.920
car was hit very hard in the
rear, the impact could she the filler

1195
01:38:00.960 --> 01:38:02.840
neck away from the tank, and
that could cause gas to spill out,

1196
01:38:03.319 --> 01:38:08.640
and if there was a spark resulting
from say metal to metal contact, that

1197
01:38:08.680 --> 01:38:11.520
could trigger a fire. And there
was a recall when there was a big

1198
01:38:11.600 --> 01:38:15.880
hullabaloo about that, even though relatively
speaking, millions of pinto is a handful

1199
01:38:15.880 --> 01:38:18.119
of fires, and it wasn't an
inherent defect. It was just a not

1200
01:38:18.239 --> 01:38:21.760
particularly good design which was corrected,
and once it was corrected, it was

1201
01:38:21.800 --> 01:38:25.479
no longer a problem. So we've
got that on the one hand, and

1202
01:38:25.479 --> 01:38:29.960
then we juxtapose that with these evs
that can catch fire just sitting still,

1203
01:38:30.279 --> 01:38:33.640
not being hit, parked outside,
parked in your garage, on a container

1204
01:38:33.680 --> 01:38:39.680
ship. And that's because there is
an inherent built in problem with lithium ion

1205
01:38:39.800 --> 01:38:45.279
batteries that can't be fixed. They
have an inherent built in tendency to automatically

1206
01:38:45.319 --> 01:38:50.119
spontaneously combust The difference with the Pinto
was you had to have a spark in

1207
01:38:50.159 --> 01:38:55.119
addition to the gas leaking in order
for there to be a fire, and

1208
01:38:55.159 --> 01:38:58.119
you had to have an outside physical
force, such as an impact, in

1209
01:38:58.199 --> 01:39:01.439
order to trigger that cascading chain of
events. So it was rather improbable that

1210
01:39:01.479 --> 01:39:05.159
you were going to be burned to
death in a penzil very very slight chance

1211
01:39:05.199 --> 01:39:10.960
of that if I am, I
mistaken Eric, And because I was small

1212
01:39:11.000 --> 01:39:14.560
when they did these things, I
think they had some of this on NBC

1213
01:39:14.680 --> 01:39:19.680
News. Didn't They have to put
flares into the back of was it the

1214
01:39:19.760 --> 01:39:25.039
Pinto or was it a different car
to actually make the bus it on camera?

1215
01:39:25.399 --> 01:39:28.800
They tried to do something that there
was something called GM pickups I believe,

1216
01:39:28.840 --> 01:39:31.760
with what was called the side saddle. Fuel tank was mounted in a

1217
01:39:31.800 --> 01:39:35.319
particular part of the frame where it
was vulnerable to impact. The problem was

1218
01:39:35.600 --> 01:39:39.800
they were trying to create this gore
story and they would keep hitting the thing

1219
01:39:39.840 --> 01:39:43.199
and it wouldn't blow up. So
they actually had to put a flare there

1220
01:39:43.359 --> 01:39:46.239
to cause the fire. And that's
the point. Gasoline is combustible, but

1221
01:39:46.359 --> 01:39:50.000
it's actually unlikely to burn if you
can just spill it and pour it on

1222
01:39:50.000 --> 01:39:53.279
the ground. Every one of us
has done that. When you go to

1223
01:39:53.319 --> 01:39:55.720
a gas station, you fill your
car up, and sometimes when you pull

1224
01:39:55.760 --> 01:40:00.239
the filler out, there's some gas
that drips. It almost never catches fire

1225
01:40:00.279 --> 01:40:03.399
because you have to have a spark, so you almost have to be deliberately

1226
01:40:03.439 --> 01:40:08.000
stupid in order for there to be
a gas fire. With these evs on

1227
01:40:08.039 --> 01:40:10.960
every hand, you can be the
most responsible person in the world. You

1228
01:40:11.239 --> 01:40:15.079
drive your EV home and you park
it in your driveway or in your garage,

1229
01:40:15.479 --> 01:40:20.399
and it just spontaneously catches fire.
And you linked to a story from

1230
01:40:20.520 --> 01:40:26.079
Eric Peters Auto's dot com. Everybody
you link to a story from Automotive News

1231
01:40:26.119 --> 01:40:31.920
from April twenty eighth. Kurt nagel
Wright's main headline vehicle that caught fire at

1232
01:40:32.000 --> 01:40:39.279
Chrysler Tech Center was EV prototype,
and then the subhead EV related fires have

1233
01:40:39.479 --> 01:40:45.039
erupted at two of the Detroit three
automakers in recent weeks. GM's Factory zero

1234
01:40:45.239 --> 01:40:48.000
reported a fire last week. And
this is one of the things that,

1235
01:40:48.399 --> 01:40:54.479
in addition to the weight factor inside
public garages now or even private garages,

1236
01:40:54.520 --> 01:40:58.840
if they don't handle these things properly. I'm very worried about parking, even

1237
01:40:58.840 --> 01:41:04.479
in any enclosed area or nearby outside
any eb because they could just start up

1238
01:41:04.479 --> 01:41:10.520
and just burst into flames. Yeah, these aren't just prototypes either. A

1239
01:41:10.520 --> 01:41:12.600
couple of place. It was a
month, maybe two, three months.

1240
01:41:12.600 --> 01:41:16.439
I lose track of time. Uh, some forward lightnings that had been held

1241
01:41:16.439 --> 01:41:19.000
at a storage lot after they left
the assembly line. In other words,

1242
01:41:19.000 --> 01:41:21.840
these were finished vehicles. These were
ready to be shipped out to dealers.

1243
01:41:23.319 --> 01:41:26.600
There was a fire there. You
know, this is not an uncommon occurrence,

1244
01:41:26.760 --> 01:41:30.920
and it will become a more common
occurrence because of compounding factors. You

1245
01:41:30.960 --> 01:41:33.319
know, an electric vehicle doesn't just
catch fire potentially when it's sitting still,

1246
01:41:33.720 --> 01:41:38.880
if it's struck. You know,
if the battery case is damaged and damages

1247
01:41:38.920 --> 01:41:42.119
the battery, that can cause a
fire. If and I went to this

1248
01:41:42.159 --> 01:41:45.000
in my article, if it gets
wet a particularly with salt water, you

1249
01:41:45.000 --> 01:41:47.720
know, as in the aftermath of
a flood, as in Florida, the

1250
01:41:47.800 --> 01:41:53.079
number of because the salt water gets
into the there's a vent on top of

1251
01:41:53.119 --> 01:41:56.600
the battery, and if the water
gets into that vent, that salt water

1252
01:41:57.039 --> 01:42:00.800
then causes the thermal runaway the short
circuit and the thing goes up in smoke,

1253
01:42:01.520 --> 01:42:05.239
you know. And we haven't even
gotten into the effect of time and

1254
01:42:05.319 --> 01:42:09.000
mileage and use you know, over
time. This is a car. It's

1255
01:42:09.039 --> 01:42:11.960
not something actually that sits at a
desk at home, you know, like

1256
01:42:11.960 --> 01:42:15.640
a laptop or a computer. This
is a car that is subjected to extremes

1257
01:42:15.640 --> 01:42:17.600
of heat and cold. It hits
potholes, you know, and it wears

1258
01:42:17.600 --> 01:42:20.279
out over time. So we could
expect to see even more of these fis.

1259
01:42:20.520 --> 01:42:25.199
And to the point of the article, it's just it's interesting because it

1260
01:42:25.239 --> 01:42:30.000
points out the motives of the government
and it's feigned concern for our safety.

1261
01:42:30.600 --> 01:42:33.920
You know. This is a demonstrable, inherent risk that cannot be corrected,

1262
01:42:34.119 --> 01:42:39.600
at least not without changing fundamentally the
type of battery chemistry that's used in electric

1263
01:42:39.720 --> 01:42:43.560
vehicles. It cannot be dealt with. It It is going to inhere in

1264
01:42:43.600 --> 01:42:46.199
the vehicle, and it's a risk
that the government is imposing on you by

1265
01:42:46.239 --> 01:42:49.239
force. Whereas in the case of
this pinto you know, where there's a

1266
01:42:49.359 --> 01:42:55.119
very slight risk potentially if a series
of events happened, that the car might

1267
01:42:55.159 --> 01:42:58.039
catch fire, if you got hit
behind from behind it, you know,

1268
01:42:58.079 --> 01:43:00.199
by somebody driving very fast. There
was a huge you and cry and we

1269
01:43:00.279 --> 01:43:03.600
must recall all these Pintos. You
know, there's a massive class action lawsuit.

1270
01:43:03.680 --> 01:43:06.079
But in this case, apparently,
don't worry about it. It's fine,

1271
01:43:06.159 --> 01:43:10.880
everything's good. I love your line
here. But no Pinto ever caught

1272
01:43:10.960 --> 01:43:15.479
fire while parked, right, and
yeah, you you nail it, Eric,

1273
01:43:15.640 --> 01:43:20.680
And you know, the thing that
that really gets me is that so

1274
01:43:20.760 --> 01:43:25.680
many journalists are willing to cover up
this stuff. Like we saw that report

1275
01:43:25.720 --> 01:43:30.840
from Automotive News and they tried to
stress that they were there were prototypes.

1276
01:43:30.479 --> 01:43:34.279
Well, this is not necessarily the
case. As you say, this is

1277
01:43:34.279 --> 01:43:38.159
happening all over the place. And
that point that you bring up is the

1278
01:43:38.199 --> 01:43:41.199
wear and tear. We're just as
you say, we're just talking about potholes.

1279
01:43:41.560 --> 01:43:45.479
Eventually they are going to be cracks
that appear, and condensation is going

1280
01:43:45.520 --> 01:43:49.239
to get inside those systems, and
once that condensation gets in there, those

1281
01:43:49.279 --> 01:43:56.560
batteries are gone and the fires,
the fire potential just skyrockets. As you

1282
01:43:56.600 --> 01:43:59.479
said, you know, with the
salt water they came into Florida during some

1283
01:43:59.479 --> 01:44:03.279
of the hurricane into Georgia as well. Just terrible terrible stuff that people saw.

1284
01:44:03.359 --> 01:44:08.119
They can't put these fires out.
They it's just it's insane. It's

1285
01:44:08.199 --> 01:44:11.840
absolutely we're underwater. I think I've
got some videos in that article where you

1286
01:44:11.840 --> 01:44:14.800
can see, I mean literally the
car like somebody was trying to back up

1287
01:44:14.840 --> 01:44:17.560
their boat I guess at a at
a boat ramp and lost control of the

1288
01:44:17.600 --> 01:44:20.119
car goes in the water. I
think it was a Tesla Model wide along

1289
01:44:20.159 --> 01:44:25.319
with the gull wings. Anyway,
it is completely submerged and it's still on

1290
01:44:25.439 --> 01:44:30.359
fire. Unbelievable. Here's let's uh, let's do this here and we'll see

1291
01:44:30.359 --> 01:44:32.159
there might be an AD that pops
up. This is one of many videos

1292
01:44:32.159 --> 01:44:35.960
that is embedded in this piece at
Eric peters autos dot com. And Eric,

1293
01:44:36.079 --> 01:44:42.199
thanks again. I really appreciate it. You're you're a trooper and uh

1294
01:44:42.279 --> 01:44:45.039
you know seeing that email that doesn't
have the link in it and saying how

1295
01:44:45.039 --> 01:44:47.439
am I going to get on the
show. Well, maybe it's like magic.

1296
01:44:47.520 --> 01:44:51.319
We'll have the pixie dust just like
the uh, well we'll use carbon

1297
01:44:51.800 --> 01:44:55.640
and that will do it, right. But let's yeah, let's show this

1298
01:44:55.640 --> 01:44:57.439
one. There might be an ad, but we'll see. Take a look

1299
01:44:57.439 --> 01:45:00.960
at this right here, this is
why state and local EFFAC are warning you

1300
01:45:00.079 --> 01:45:05.399
not to drive electric vehicles impacted by
storm surge and to park it away from

1301
01:45:05.479 --> 01:45:09.880
your home. And this is what's
left of an electric car that ignited as

1302
01:45:10.000 --> 01:45:14.399
is being towed in Panela's park today. Fire crew said it was parked in

1303
01:45:14.439 --> 01:45:18.520
a lot that was flooded during Hurricane
Italia. Ten Tampa Bay anchor Joshua Doors

1304
01:45:18.600 --> 01:45:26.239
verifies what makes evs and saltwater such
a dangerous combination. These electric vehicles,

1305
01:45:26.279 --> 01:45:30.359
when they get saltwater intrusion, can
catch on fire and those are very difficult

1306
01:45:30.359 --> 01:45:33.199
fires to put out. That was
Governor Desantras's warning just days ago ahead of

1307
01:45:33.279 --> 01:45:38.960
Hurricane Adalia, and several local agencies
have issued similar warnings here like this one.

1308
01:45:39.039 --> 01:45:44.000
So let's verify what makes electric vehicles
so vulnerable to not just flood water,

1309
01:45:44.319 --> 01:45:47.560
but salt water. Here are our
sources, including FEMA, the US

1310
01:45:47.600 --> 01:45:53.039
Fire Administration, and the National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration. According to NITZA,

1311
01:45:53.439 --> 01:45:59.720
residual salt within an EV's lithium ion
battery or battery components can form conductive bridges

1312
01:46:00.039 --> 01:46:02.840
that can lead to short circuit and
self heating of the battery, causing a

1313
01:46:02.920 --> 01:46:08.960
fire, but when a damaged lithium
ion battery can ignite, that varies widely.

1314
01:46:10.000 --> 01:46:14.000
After Hurricane Eden last year, there
were at least a dozen reports of

1315
01:46:14.079 --> 01:46:18.800
eves that had been submerged or partially
submerged in saltwater, igniting weeks after the

1316
01:46:18.800 --> 01:46:24.079
fact. And considering Florida now has
the second most registered evs in the country,

1317
01:46:24.279 --> 01:46:28.720
it is becoming a growing concern for
first responders because these fires they also

1318
01:46:28.880 --> 01:46:32.600
burn a lot hotter. Traditional car
fires burn around fifteen hundred degrees, where

1319
01:46:32.640 --> 01:46:39.880
an electric vehicle battery fire can burn
close to five thousand degrees. With your

1320
01:46:39.960 --> 01:46:42.279
verify, I'm Josh said Orlin,
all right, Josh, that's really good

1321
01:46:42.279 --> 01:46:45.279
information there. If you see something
you'd like as to verify, you can

1322
01:46:45.319 --> 01:46:48.720
email your questions to us verify it. How about they verify the fact that

1323
01:46:48.760 --> 01:46:57.439
most everybody should know that ions are
involved with the conduction of electricscy It's like,

1324
01:46:57.520 --> 01:47:02.760
oh salt, duh. They need
somebody to you know, I should

1325
01:47:02.920 --> 01:47:06.079
I shouldn't say that. You know, maybe some people are young people just

1326
01:47:06.159 --> 01:47:12.359
learning about the conductivity of salt water, but I mean plase salt ions.

1327
01:47:12.600 --> 01:47:15.640
There you go. There's another aspect
of this too, and it's another one

1328
01:47:15.640 --> 01:47:17.399
of these evy Catch twenty two's.
I harp on this a lot because I

1329
01:47:17.399 --> 01:47:21.199
think it's important to harp on it. In order to make an ev practical

1330
01:47:21.279 --> 01:47:25.319
at all, you have to use
these so called fast chargers. You know,

1331
01:47:25.479 --> 01:47:28.520
otherwise you're literally going to spend all
day waiting for the thing to recover

1332
01:47:28.600 --> 01:47:31.199
any kind of a charge. Well, the fast charger increases the fire rist

1333
01:47:31.279 --> 01:47:38.079
because you're talking about conduiting an enormous
amount of voltage into this battery, and

1334
01:47:38.119 --> 01:47:42.560
that creates heat in the process,
and that's why these things often catch fire

1335
01:47:42.720 --> 01:47:45.960
while they are hooked up to these
fast chargers. And then there's another issue.

1336
01:47:46.039 --> 01:47:50.239
In order to limit or mitigate the
potential fire damage, you can only

1337
01:47:50.399 --> 01:47:55.920
charge one of these things up to
eighty percent of its capacity at a fast

1338
01:47:55.960 --> 01:47:58.600
charger. And they never tell you
that, They never explain that. They

1339
01:47:58.640 --> 01:48:00.880
always talk about the fast charger.
Oh, you can be on your way

1340
01:48:00.920 --> 01:48:04.840
in thirty minutes. Well yeah,
maybe, but you'll be twenty percent shy

1341
01:48:04.880 --> 01:48:06.840
of a full tank. So I
mean, you know, it's like,

1342
01:48:08.000 --> 01:48:10.640
so you already start out with not
much range in one of these things.

1343
01:48:11.000 --> 01:48:14.960
Now you get twenty percent less range, and so now you're gonna have to

1344
01:48:15.039 --> 01:48:18.399
fast charge again and more regularly.
You see how the cycle works. Yeah,

1345
01:48:18.720 --> 01:48:24.640
yeah, the risk of fire.
And also you increase the you decrease

1346
01:48:24.680 --> 01:48:30.319
the life of the battery by subjecting
it to constant heavy discharging and then fast

1347
01:48:30.399 --> 01:48:32.319
charging cycles. And that's not my
opinion. You can actually read that,

1348
01:48:32.359 --> 01:48:35.479
in fact in my latest article from
a Tesla, but it's right there on

1349
01:48:35.520 --> 01:48:41.800
the screen. Car tells you,
you know, avoid depleting the battery excessively

1350
01:48:41.920 --> 01:48:49.119
and avoid subjecting it to repeated fast
charging sessions. Man, this is just

1351
01:48:50.039 --> 01:48:56.279
incredible and you've got this. I
love this January first, what a way

1352
01:48:56.319 --> 01:49:00.239
to start the year. Check it
out. Would you buy this car?

1353
01:49:00.439 --> 01:49:05.199
And you have the clip there thirty
two percent of range lost in seven years,

1354
01:49:06.039 --> 01:49:10.239
you say. A man buys a
Tesla and says, we never get

1355
01:49:10.279 --> 01:49:15.199
what was promised. We get way
less. He refers to the range advertised

1356
01:49:15.239 --> 01:49:20.039
by the manufacturer of his battery powered
device, a twenty seventeen model X Tesla's

1357
01:49:20.079 --> 01:49:26.520
advertising has proved seriously false. He
did not get what he paid for.

1358
01:49:26.680 --> 01:49:30.640
In other words, yet the man
is not angry that he has arguably been

1359
01:49:30.880 --> 01:49:36.680
what's the appropriate phrase ripped off by
Tesla. How would you describe it if

1360
01:49:36.720 --> 01:49:43.359
the vehicle you bought was advertised as
being capable of taking you forty miles on

1361
01:49:43.399 --> 01:49:46.880
a gallon of gas and it only
went thirty two miles, or about twenty

1362
01:49:46.880 --> 01:49:51.079
percent less than advertised. How dare
you deal with math? This is the

1363
01:49:51.319 --> 01:49:58.239
typical disparity in advertising versus actual range
when it comes to battery powered vehicles.

1364
01:49:58.479 --> 01:50:01.479
So let's talk about this hunting class
action suit. Eric. Yeah, that

1365
01:50:01.520 --> 01:50:05.079
goes back a few years ago and
Hundai had some advertising where it touted that

1366
01:50:05.159 --> 01:50:09.920
its vehicles I think it was his
entire lineup got better than forty miles per

1367
01:50:09.960 --> 01:50:13.000
gallon, and there was some quibbling
in there. It wasn't maybe perhaps as

1368
01:50:13.039 --> 01:50:15.960
accurate because they were referring to the
highway rather than the city number, and

1369
01:50:16.079 --> 01:50:19.439
they were I guess the implication was
that they averaged forty miles an hour,

1370
01:50:19.479 --> 01:50:23.359
when in fact they really didn't.
They averaged I don't know, thirty two

1371
01:50:23.600 --> 01:50:26.720
something like that. Anyway, it
was it was a difference that was far

1372
01:50:26.800 --> 01:50:31.840
less significant than the disparity in the
ev between the touted range and the actual

1373
01:50:31.920 --> 01:50:36.119
range that you get. And there
there was a recall and a massive lawsuit

1374
01:50:36.560 --> 01:50:41.439
directed against Hyundai because people were angry. Understandably, you know, you buy

1375
01:50:41.439 --> 01:50:44.840
the vehicle and it says it can
do this, and the government affirms that

1376
01:50:44.920 --> 01:50:45.640
it can do this, and then
you buy it and you find out,

1377
01:50:45.640 --> 01:50:48.079
well, no, it can't.
And maybe part of the reason you bought

1378
01:50:48.079 --> 01:50:50.720
it was because you expected it to
do what they said it was going to

1379
01:50:50.800 --> 01:50:54.520
do and it didn't. But somehow
evs get it pass it. You know,

1380
01:50:54.520 --> 01:50:57.960
everybody concedes this point. Now,
you know that the EV even under

1381
01:50:57.960 --> 01:51:02.199
the ideal circumstances, typically will get
ten twenty percent less range than what is

1382
01:51:02.239 --> 01:51:06.239
indicated. And if the conditions are
anything less than optimal, if it's very

1383
01:51:06.239 --> 01:51:10.520
cold out, if it's very hot
out, you know, you're using accessories

1384
01:51:10.560 --> 01:51:14.319
and the thermal management system is having
to try to keep the battery warm or

1385
01:51:14.359 --> 01:51:16.560
try to prevent it from getting too
hot. And if you drive any faster

1386
01:51:16.680 --> 01:51:20.079
than a crawl, basically you know, gimp it along, you know,

1387
01:51:20.239 --> 01:51:25.199
like you have an eggshell and egg
the accelerator pedal, your range will will

1388
01:51:25.239 --> 01:51:29.000
be much less than that. And
somehow there isn't a class action lawsuit.

1389
01:51:29.079 --> 01:51:32.359
Somehow it's apologized for and rationalized this
whole article. I mean, it took

1390
01:51:32.439 --> 01:51:35.640
me a few hours to even be
able to prepare to write for it because

1391
01:51:35.680 --> 01:51:40.119
I was just so brain numbed by
this guy. This guy did a video

1392
01:51:40.359 --> 01:51:43.039
in which he talked about the fact
that his vehicle that he bought, his

1393
01:51:43.079 --> 01:51:45.920
twenty seventeen Tesla, that he bought
after seven years, it now gets thirty

1394
01:51:45.960 --> 01:51:49.720
two percent less range than it did
when it was new, and he estimates

1395
01:51:49.720 --> 01:51:53.640
that it's value. He paid one
hundred thousand dollars for this thing, and

1396
01:51:53.680 --> 01:51:57.159
now he estimates it's worth about twenty
five thousand dollars. And you know,

1397
01:51:57.199 --> 01:51:59.920
you'd think he would be like,
you know, I really feel stupid about

1398
01:51:59.920 --> 01:52:01.359
it having bought this vehicle. I
would never buy another vehicle like this.

1399
01:52:01.479 --> 01:52:04.479
Instead, he goes on and on
about how wonderful it is and how he's

1400
01:52:04.520 --> 01:52:12.319
ready to buy another one. And
it reminds they continue to catch COVID,

1401
01:52:12.319 --> 01:52:16.399
but they keep getting their boosters.
Yes, exactly, exactly. My brain

1402
01:52:16.880 --> 01:52:24.479
hurts thinking about this mindset. You
just got punched in the face. Why

1403
01:52:24.520 --> 01:52:29.239
are you continuing to put your face
in front of the fist punch back?

1404
01:52:29.479 --> 01:52:33.920
For God's sake, It's just insane. The whole thing, at least rhetorically

1405
01:52:34.199 --> 01:52:41.279
address the problems, address reality.
It's a new year. Let's start off

1406
01:52:41.319 --> 01:52:45.760
with a new Year's resolution. Don't
be a dupe. How about that.

1407
01:52:45.359 --> 01:52:48.239
I've been trying to plumb this,
and I think like in the case of

1408
01:52:48.279 --> 01:52:51.119
this individual, clearly he's very affluent. If you look at some of his

1409
01:52:51.199 --> 01:52:55.319
other videos, Yeah, he talks
about selling one of his houses, and

1410
01:52:55.359 --> 01:52:57.640
if you look at the house,
the house looks like it's got to be

1411
01:52:57.680 --> 01:53:00.319
at least a couple million dollars.
And he seems like he's not a bad

1412
01:53:00.359 --> 01:53:03.159
guy. From what I can tell. He seems like he's a nice enough

1413
01:53:03.199 --> 01:53:06.880
guy. But I think this this
let them eat cake aspect of people who

1414
01:53:06.880 --> 01:53:10.439
are very, very affluent. You
know, if you're somebody who lives in

1415
01:53:10.439 --> 01:53:14.359
a million dollar house, you can
afford a toy like one hundred thousand dollars

1416
01:53:14.399 --> 01:53:16.920
electric car, right, you know, he probably has multiple cars. He

1417
01:53:16.920 --> 01:53:20.560
probably has other cars that aren't electric. And maybe for them it just doesn't

1418
01:53:20.600 --> 01:53:25.840
register, you know, like they
live in this entirely different economic realm and

1419
01:53:25.960 --> 01:53:30.039
world than we do. And for
them, you know, maybe this is

1420
01:53:30.079 --> 01:53:31.239
oh, it's just fun, it's
great, you know, just like having

1421
01:53:31.279 --> 01:53:34.720
my this guy's got a you know, some kind of like Olympic style swimming

1422
01:53:34.720 --> 01:53:44.239
pool in this backyard too. Doesn't
everybody have one of those? Oh man,

1423
01:53:44.399 --> 01:53:48.640
it's just unbelievable. It's absolutely crazy. Boy. Eric, Look,

1424
01:53:49.279 --> 01:53:54.439
as we as we start off the
new year, I want to welcome people

1425
01:53:54.479 --> 01:53:59.520
to go to Eric peters Otto's dot
com and I want to just ask you

1426
01:53:59.600 --> 01:54:02.880
a little bit more on the abstract
sort of thing. You know, as

1427
01:54:02.920 --> 01:54:08.039
I was closing off that segment about
Israel Gaza, you know, very very

1428
01:54:08.119 --> 01:54:11.920
brutal information, and of course we're
all implicated in this, I brought up

1429
01:54:11.920 --> 01:54:14.800
some philosophy, you know, Like
I was in the lecture hall and I

1430
01:54:14.840 --> 01:54:16.199
was, you know, hanging out
with the students. Okay, let one

1431
01:54:16.199 --> 01:54:19.319
of the students get up there,
you know, do their comments and we'll

1432
01:54:19.319 --> 01:54:23.359
take some comments from the rock finchat
that sort of thing. And I talked

1433
01:54:23.359 --> 01:54:28.600
about how John Locke used to,
you know, he made up his so

1434
01:54:28.680 --> 01:54:32.279
called natural rights argument, which really
was just a beard to hide what he

1435
01:54:32.319 --> 01:54:36.960
really was doing, which was I'm
going to force the state and the majority

1436
01:54:38.039 --> 01:54:43.159
rule or whatever, the constitutional representative
democracy sort of thing, whatever it is,

1437
01:54:43.399 --> 01:54:45.520
the state is going to impose its
will on you. It's not real

1438
01:54:45.680 --> 01:54:50.239
self governance, which is you governing
yourself and coming up with your own arrangements.

1439
01:54:50.279 --> 01:54:54.840
You will be excluded if you're a
jerk. You'll be sued in private

1440
01:54:54.880 --> 01:54:58.159
adjudication systems that sort of thing.
If you're a jerk, and no one

1441
01:54:58.159 --> 01:55:00.199
will want to deal with you,
just like the old British common law system

1442
01:55:00.319 --> 01:55:05.840
was it was operated. But this
idea that Locke had when he said,

1443
01:55:06.159 --> 01:55:13.079
man in the state of nature is
just can't trust each other. And men

1444
01:55:13.119 --> 01:55:17.399
will be in perpetual states of war. And when a man initiates a state

1445
01:55:17.479 --> 01:55:21.720
of war against you, you have
the right to defend yourself, that sort

1446
01:55:21.760 --> 01:55:29.319
of thing. And so he said, states are instituted among men, as

1447
01:55:29.439 --> 01:55:33.439
Jefferson paraphrased as if all the men
agree. So now the state is legitimate

1448
01:55:33.680 --> 01:55:36.079
for the guy who didn't like,
Hey, I don't want to be part

1449
01:55:36.079 --> 01:55:40.840
of your club. No, sorry, we have welcomed you into our club.

1450
01:55:40.880 --> 01:55:44.600
Now pay your dues. I don't
want this. Oh we're protecting you.

1451
01:55:44.640 --> 01:55:46.319
No, you're forcing me to pay
for something I don't want. What

1452
01:55:46.399 --> 01:55:48.520
if I don't want it? In
this much? You know this sort of

1453
01:55:48.560 --> 01:55:53.119
thing you notice a language. They
used that term instituted as if it's just

1454
01:55:53.159 --> 01:55:59.119
sort of a happenstance. Yes,
it's imposed, it is yes, yes,

1455
01:55:59.239 --> 01:56:03.920
again the flour use of language rather
than using the they use the passive

1456
01:56:03.960 --> 01:56:09.399
voice rather than the active voice,
which is, governments are imposed on people.

1457
01:56:09.560 --> 01:56:14.640
That is the only way a government
exists is by imposing on someone.

1458
01:56:14.760 --> 01:56:17.840
And so what I think is interesting
is, as I mentioned earlier, philosophically,

1459
01:56:18.079 --> 01:56:24.560
logically, in any word, in
any sort of way that someone can

1460
01:56:24.600 --> 01:56:29.359
look at it. The government itself, which is purported to stop this state

1461
01:56:29.399 --> 01:56:32.920
of war of man against man,
which might not exist if we're actually able

1462
01:56:32.920 --> 01:56:36.079
to leave each other alone. And
if someone does do that, then we

1463
01:56:36.680 --> 01:56:41.399
can create our own private systems of
protection to say, Okay, I'm going

1464
01:56:41.479 --> 01:56:45.920
to work with this group of people
voluntarily to protect ourselves. The state says,

1465
01:56:45.920 --> 01:56:48.920
no, you can't do that yourself
all the way you want to do

1466
01:56:48.960 --> 01:56:53.079
it, because we're going to extract
a certain portion of your money to give

1467
01:56:53.119 --> 01:56:57.600
you protection. So really, the
state is the state of war, and

1468
01:56:57.680 --> 01:57:00.039
it is perpetual war against you.
If you don't like it, just try

1469
01:57:00.119 --> 01:57:03.319
not paying for it. Sometime you'll
find out what the war is, and

1470
01:57:03.399 --> 01:57:09.560
this goes towards the roads, This
goes towards all the ways they keep metastasizing

1471
01:57:09.880 --> 01:57:14.600
this cancer of the state making decisions
for us about the products we're going to

1472
01:57:14.640 --> 01:57:17.079
buy, whether their appliances or cars
or anything. And I have an article

1473
01:57:17.119 --> 01:57:25.800
from MRCTV that's coming out today about
the new mountain of announcements of appliance regulations

1474
01:57:25.920 --> 01:57:30.399
that the Department of Energy. Jennifer
Grand Holmes Gang, which of course she

1475
01:57:30.439 --> 01:57:32.079
made a bunch of money off of
that company, Protera, when they gave

1476
01:57:32.079 --> 01:57:35.359
her stock options, they brought her
back, they brought her onto the board.

1477
01:57:35.680 --> 01:57:41.520
After she was governor of Michigan.
She got about six million dollars to

1478
01:57:41.560 --> 01:57:45.840
go to Protera that was given a
GM from the Feds during the Obama administration.

1479
01:57:45.119 --> 01:57:48.640
That went to Protera. Then pro
Tara brought her on their board after

1480
01:57:48.680 --> 01:57:53.279
she left the governorship, and then
when she left the board, they gave

1481
01:57:53.279 --> 01:57:58.880
her stock options that she traded in
just a few months before they announced bankruptcy.

1482
01:57:59.239 --> 01:58:01.960
So she made almost two million dollars
and she's still the head of this

1483
01:58:02.119 --> 01:58:08.600
unconstitutional Department of Energy. It's mind
blowing, it's absolutely flabbergasting. But they

1484
01:58:08.680 --> 01:58:12.560
do all these things, they take
away our opportunities, and yet people use

1485
01:58:12.600 --> 01:58:16.279
this soft language and they don't say
what's going on. You're being ripped off

1486
01:58:16.560 --> 01:58:19.720
and it's a state of war against
you, and it always. As an

1487
01:58:19.760 --> 01:58:25.640
anarchist, voluntarist, libertarian Christian,
I have to say, the state is

1488
01:58:25.840 --> 01:58:29.960
always at war with people, and
they have to recognize this. I hope

1489
01:58:29.960 --> 01:58:33.159
they will. Well, not only
are they at war, but it's institutionalized

1490
01:58:33.199 --> 01:58:38.279
and legalized. And that's an important
point to make, in that you don't

1491
01:58:38.279 --> 01:58:42.680
have a right in this paradigm to
defend yourself against the defradations of the state

1492
01:58:42.800 --> 01:58:45.800
that is defined as criminal somehow if
you simply wish to be left alone.

1493
01:58:45.880 --> 01:58:49.279
There's also another aspect that I think
is interesting, and it's this utopian press

1494
01:58:49.600 --> 01:58:56.600
premise that the status will bring out. They'll point to the supposed brutish state

1495
01:58:56.640 --> 01:58:59.359
of nature if we didn't have government, while people would be at each other's

1496
01:58:59.439 --> 01:59:02.640
throats, there would be chaos.
Everybody would be would be trying to take

1497
01:59:02.680 --> 01:59:06.239
everybody else's things and killing Rubert and
so on. But at least you can

1498
01:59:06.279 --> 01:59:13.000
defend yourself, first of all,
and secondly, I think you you know

1499
01:59:13.279 --> 01:59:17.640
you would have you wouldn't have this
institutionalized, systematized violence that we're stuck with.

1500
01:59:17.800 --> 01:59:21.079
Now, Yeah, there might be
some violence, but it wouldn't be

1501
01:59:21.880 --> 01:59:26.600
a structure that you have to cowtow
to. And if you don't cowtow to

1502
01:59:26.680 --> 01:59:30.079
it, then somehow, by some
weird leisure to remain, you're the criminal.

1503
01:59:30.439 --> 01:59:33.399
You know, my stuff. You
know, I could prevent somebody else

1504
01:59:33.399 --> 01:59:36.960
from taking what I've earned. It's
mine, and that makes me a criminal

1505
01:59:38.000 --> 01:59:42.960
somehow, And you know, Eric, it also goes towards the platonic idiocy

1506
01:59:43.000 --> 01:59:46.760
of who watches the watchers? You
know, if you are incapable of making

1507
01:59:46.840 --> 01:59:55.119
legitimate decisions about yourself, and only
the state has legitimate power for the policing

1508
01:59:55.159 --> 02:00:01.000
and things like that, then how
can the state derive legitimacy from supposedly deriving

1509
02:00:01.039 --> 02:00:06.560
its power from people who inherently,
individually are illegitimate in making their own decisions.

1510
02:00:06.920 --> 02:00:12.760
Sure so it makes us censorious,
you know, And that now you're

1511
02:00:12.760 --> 02:00:15.920
thinking, and that's dangerous. And
the other thing is we've got that,

1512
02:00:15.960 --> 02:00:19.279
you know, just on a purely
practical level, we have got the I

1513
02:00:19.279 --> 02:00:24.439
mean, it's inarguable how incompetent these
people are, you know, who presume

1514
02:00:24.960 --> 02:00:30.399
to assume the power to manage us
on the premise that we are too ignorant

1515
02:00:30.439 --> 02:00:36.039
and selfish and shortsighted and so on
to competently handle our own affairs, as

1516
02:00:36.079 --> 02:00:39.840
if they are. Look at the
mess that they have made of the world,

1517
02:00:39.880 --> 02:00:42.960
of everything, you know, the
catastrophic mess that they've made of everything.

1518
02:00:42.960 --> 02:00:45.520
I don't think we could possibly do
any worse. In fact, that's

1519
02:00:45.600 --> 02:00:47.520
literally true. You and I as
individuals, even if we were of the

1520
02:00:48.119 --> 02:00:51.439
worst sort imaginable, there's only so
much damage that you and I can do

1521
02:00:51.479 --> 02:00:56.439
as an individual. A state,
on the other hand, can damage tens

1522
02:00:56.479 --> 02:01:00.560
of millions, if not hundreds of
millions of lives. Absolutely, the adoption

1523
02:01:00.680 --> 02:01:04.520
of this legal authority is just it's
ridiculous. And I do want to bring

1524
02:01:04.600 --> 02:01:09.000
up again. Some people, and
many libertarians will do this. They'll say,

1525
02:01:09.159 --> 02:01:12.159
well, there's no constitutional authority for
that, And I just have to

1526
02:01:12.199 --> 02:01:15.239
remind people I never signed the Constitution. It has no authority over me.

1527
02:01:15.800 --> 02:01:21.399
And it's an absolutely important point.
It's a philosophical moral point to stress Eric

1528
02:01:21.920 --> 02:01:26.000
on that point. This is something
I was going to bring up later in

1529
02:01:26.039 --> 02:01:29.439
the program, but it actually has
something to do with on the road again.

1530
02:01:29.640 --> 02:01:31.840
And since we're here on the first
of the year twenty twenty four with

1531
02:01:32.000 --> 02:01:35.760
Eric Peters, everybody on the David
Knight Show. Before we turn to the

1532
02:01:35.840 --> 02:01:40.520
Rock fin and Rumble questions and we
are streaming on Rumble, which is great.

1533
02:01:40.760 --> 02:01:43.560
I did a double check while we
were doing a few things here.

1534
02:01:45.039 --> 02:01:47.039
I want to bring this up if
I can. Eric. This is a

1535
02:01:47.039 --> 02:01:51.720
piece that I have over at my
Sunday News Assembly on Substack. Oh take

1536
02:01:51.760 --> 02:01:56.720
it on. Yeah. We got
the prisoner declared on mutual of course,

1537
02:01:56.760 --> 02:02:00.760
because he just wanted to be left
alone. He wouldn't count to what the

1538
02:02:01.199 --> 02:02:06.079
government on the island demanded of him. But in this Sunday News Assembly I

1539
02:02:06.119 --> 02:02:11.960
have a piece that at first blush
might strike some people as being very obvious.

1540
02:02:12.000 --> 02:02:17.399
Well, you know, clearly some
ne'ir Dwells who got involved with sabotage.

1541
02:02:17.760 --> 02:02:21.239
They messed around with and as you
can see is probably some light streaming

1542
02:02:21.279 --> 02:02:25.399
on my face here as I get
it up on the screen. They messed

1543
02:02:25.399 --> 02:02:29.520
around with a road sign that how
dare you mess around with a road sign?

1544
02:02:29.560 --> 02:02:34.119
Those are things out there for public
information about you know, driving and

1545
02:02:34.279 --> 02:02:39.039
things that need to be used.
That sort of thing drivers need to get

1546
02:02:39.039 --> 02:02:44.399
this information. It's very important.
But what I pointed out here was it

1547
02:02:44.479 --> 02:02:50.439
actually opens up a thought process to
something that's much bigger. And I think

1548
02:02:50.479 --> 02:02:57.079
this is down towards the end of
my sub stack. It's number twenty two.

1549
02:02:57.439 --> 02:03:00.439
In fact, I thought we only
had twenty one stories. I besides

1550
02:03:00.479 --> 02:03:03.720
of this, twenty one stories,
twenty one Jump Street. But here it

1551
02:03:03.760 --> 02:03:11.319
is. It says after hate group's
message appeared on roadside sign, city says

1552
02:03:11.479 --> 02:03:16.640
it won't tolerate bigotry and hatred.
So evidently they're called the Patriot Front and

1553
02:03:16.680 --> 02:03:21.640
they were, you know, putting
up finest Patriotfront dot us. I was

1554
02:03:21.760 --> 02:03:26.039
unaware of the Patriot Front. Maybe
I had heard about them somewhere. Maybe

1555
02:03:26.079 --> 02:03:28.760
a news story or two might have
mentioned the Patriot Front. I don't know.

1556
02:03:29.119 --> 02:03:33.039
I just don't know about them.
The message was just, I guess,

1557
02:03:33.119 --> 02:03:39.560
just the Patriot Front. It wasn't
something that was necessarily offensive to people.

1558
02:03:39.600 --> 02:03:42.520
But again, offence is in the
eye of the beholder, just like

1559
02:03:42.560 --> 02:03:45.800
boot Beauty is, like the Twilight
Zone episode which they shot with such incredible

1560
02:03:45.880 --> 02:03:51.079
alacrity. But as I brought this
up, I'd like to read this to

1561
02:03:51.119 --> 02:03:55.840
you. This sort of paraphrases things
in a nice quick bundle. I said,

1562
02:03:55.920 --> 02:03:59.479
finally, we have this a story
that, beneath the surface asks many

1563
02:03:59.560 --> 02:04:03.720
questions about how it's at all possible
to operate state run systems. If,

1564
02:04:03.760 --> 02:04:08.560
as the Anti Defamation League claims,
and of course they often claim things that

1565
02:04:08.600 --> 02:04:12.840
aren't true. If as the ADEL
claims, this is offensive to some this

1566
02:04:13.000 --> 02:04:18.279
organization, Yet people have a supposed
right to freedom of speech in an abstract

1567
02:04:18.359 --> 02:04:24.079
sense. We'll get to the constitutional
level in a moment someday. Then how

1568
02:04:24.119 --> 02:04:30.760
can the state run system take money
from all these people of various feelings and

1569
02:04:30.800 --> 02:04:34.439
opinions, cut out the free speech
of some in this public, tax funded

1570
02:04:34.479 --> 02:04:40.520
system, and still claim that it
allows for free speech. This sign is

1571
02:04:40.640 --> 02:04:45.319
funded with tax cash, So why
can't everyone who wants to use the tax

1572
02:04:45.399 --> 02:04:50.680
funded sign say that he or she
has a claim on what the sign will

1573
02:04:50.720 --> 02:04:56.920
say. Perhaps no one can be
excluded from such a system if, of

1574
02:04:56.960 --> 02:05:00.560
course they're paying taxes. Of course, the government bill try to restrict,

1575
02:05:00.640 --> 02:05:06.359
and it runs into arguments from people
as to how the government property will actually

1576
02:05:06.399 --> 02:05:13.079
be run. This sign, regardless
of its original intent for highway use,

1577
02:05:13.680 --> 02:05:18.279
is a perfect example of the ethical
problem the state creates, and it's unmanageable,

1578
02:05:18.439 --> 02:05:21.399
it's intractable. It's what do you
think about that? Well? As

1579
02:05:21.399 --> 02:05:25.479
Well said, and it also goes
in the opposite direction, and that you

1580
02:05:25.479 --> 02:05:30.159
know, we're forced to provide funds
for the propagation I'm paraphrasing Jefferson here of

1581
02:05:30.399 --> 02:05:34.560
ideas that we find repellent. And
I can think a few things that are

1582
02:05:34.560 --> 02:05:39.039
more tyrannical than that. You know, we're taxed to provide, for example,

1583
02:05:39.079 --> 02:05:42.920
the government school books that present a
point of view that we may not

1584
02:05:43.079 --> 02:05:45.560
like. And you know, it's
even more just now that they've come out

1585
02:05:45.600 --> 02:05:50.640
with this this like the LBGTQ plus
stuff, the propagandization of children about sexual

1586
02:05:50.680 --> 02:05:55.800
topics and schools. If you're,
for example, troubled by abortion, you

1587
02:05:55.800 --> 02:05:58.880
know you're compelled to help finance these
things through the taxes that you pay,

1588
02:05:59.319 --> 02:06:01.359
right, right, right and absolutely
right. Worse in a way, in

1589
02:06:01.399 --> 02:06:06.199
my opinion, than being denied an
opportunity to express your point of view being

1590
02:06:06.199 --> 02:06:10.079
made to pay for it, absolutely
You know, Eric, the thing that

1591
02:06:10.159 --> 02:06:14.039
struck struck me when I was I'm
maybe eleven years old. I was starting

1592
02:06:14.039 --> 02:06:15.920
to get aware of this stuff,
and I would say, why is it

1593
02:06:15.960 --> 02:06:21.840
that people are getting upset about the
minutia of the overall thing that should be

1594
02:06:21.920 --> 02:06:26.760
upsetting them, the fact that they're
getting their money taken from them to be

1595
02:06:26.920 --> 02:06:30.920
pulled into this system. Why isn't
that the first prima fage a blush of

1596
02:06:30.960 --> 02:06:34.479
offense? And you don't need to
go any further than that, you know,

1597
02:06:34.880 --> 02:06:39.920
I mean, it's simple. I
think probably because the system has been

1598
02:06:39.920 --> 02:06:43.319
designed in such a way as to
prevent that question from even a rising.

1599
02:06:43.520 --> 02:06:47.479
You know, you ask that snatches
kids up by march at kindergarten age,

1600
02:06:47.880 --> 02:06:50.199
and you know, as a Jesuit
would say, you know, give me,

1601
02:06:50.279 --> 02:06:53.119
you know, give me a kid
for the first ten years. I

1602
02:06:53.159 --> 02:06:55.920
think it is, and he'll be
mine for life. You know, if

1603
02:06:55.960 --> 02:06:59.800
you can, you can stymy the
development of the critical faculty. You know,

1604
02:07:00.079 --> 02:07:01.479
in the olden days, the Romans
talked about the trivium, you know,

1605
02:07:01.680 --> 02:07:06.199
which was teaching a child to think, to have that critical ability,

1606
02:07:06.279 --> 02:07:11.640
that capacity to reason, and then
you teach them particular things, but first

1607
02:07:11.680 --> 02:07:15.079
you teach them how to think,
not what to think. The government system

1608
02:07:15.159 --> 02:07:18.760
is exactly the opposite. It imparts
what to think, not how to think,

1609
02:07:19.239 --> 02:07:24.319
and a lot of people I think
just they developed this habit of roat,

1610
02:07:24.479 --> 02:07:27.399
you know, because that's what the
system encourages. You are expected to

1611
02:07:27.560 --> 02:07:31.199
assimilate certain information that's provided to you, and then you regurgitate this information,

1612
02:07:31.279 --> 02:07:34.600
and that's how you get good grades. Right, So yeah, you proceed

1613
02:07:34.840 --> 02:07:39.039
along with the path, and you
go even to the point where you get

1614
02:07:39.079 --> 02:07:42.840
to college, and even in highly
specialized academic disciplines. It's not that these

1615
02:07:42.840 --> 02:07:46.359
are dumb people. They're just trained, almost like a seal, to be

1616
02:07:46.640 --> 02:07:53.159
very good at assimilating information and regurgitating
information, not necessarily to think. You

1617
02:07:53.159 --> 02:07:56.319
know, a really good example of
this during the event that was called the

1618
02:07:56.399 --> 02:07:59.960
pandemic, you had medical doctors,
and these are obviously not dumb people.

1619
02:08:00.039 --> 02:08:03.000
You know, you can't be a
dummy and get through medical school. But

1620
02:08:03.119 --> 02:08:05.359
still, you know, the critical
faculty seem to have been short circuited.

1621
02:08:05.720 --> 02:08:11.039
They were unable to evaluate the information
and then respond to it in a way

1622
02:08:11.279 --> 02:08:16.399
that contradicted what they had been told. Is the dog mud that they must

1623
02:08:16.439 --> 02:08:22.079
repeat. I flashed that photograph of
our friend who seems to be very happy

1624
02:08:22.119 --> 02:08:26.279
getting ripped off and of course being
fooled into the climate canard. I think,

1625
02:08:26.920 --> 02:08:31.920
and you know, Eric, it's
it's really cool when I was in

1626
02:08:31.960 --> 02:08:35.479
touch with Travis and David and so
on, and David gave me a ring

1627
02:08:35.600 --> 02:08:39.159
last night and wasn't able to connect
and text to me, and you know,

1628
02:08:39.279 --> 02:08:43.119
was thanking me doing the show and
everything. I'm just so grateful over

1629
02:08:43.159 --> 02:08:46.079
the past year. And I actually
hadn't planned to bring this up, but

1630
02:08:46.119 --> 02:08:48.920
I was just realizing, like,
wow, it's been a year. It's

1631
02:08:48.960 --> 02:08:52.760
been absolutely awesome to chat with you. And the work you do at Eric

1632
02:08:52.760 --> 02:08:58.800
Peters Daughters is just it's fun,
and it's also really really informative and absolutely

1633
02:09:00.039 --> 02:09:05.640
breaking breakneck pace breaking news. And
of course I hope people will check out

1634
02:09:05.920 --> 02:09:09.199
what they can buy at Eric Peters
Autos to lend you a hand, and

1635
02:09:09.239 --> 02:09:13.520
they can always, you know,
submit a donation that sort of thing.

1636
02:09:13.600 --> 02:09:16.239
You do great great stuff, and
they can find you at Libertarian Car g

1637
02:09:16.760 --> 02:09:20.920
on X. And let's go back
to the website and show that off again

1638
02:09:20.960 --> 02:09:24.000
real quick, and then I'll give
you a little something for the new year

1639
02:09:24.119 --> 02:09:28.760
again from Willie to say farewell,
there's our friend having a great time in

1640
02:09:28.840 --> 02:09:33.159
his car. And if they go
down a little further on the website,

1641
02:09:33.319 --> 02:09:37.680
they'll see some of the great items
that they can get at the store right

1642
02:09:37.720 --> 02:09:43.880
there at the BA Cap great stuff. I love it and I've got a

1643
02:09:43.920 --> 02:09:48.560
black one, but I want to
get the gray one. Got to get

1644
02:09:48.640 --> 02:09:52.279
them, got to get them.
Eric awesome stuff. So Eric, as

1645
02:09:52.319 --> 02:09:56.079
we go, any final thoughts for
the new year, and you know the

1646
02:09:56.159 --> 02:10:00.399
David Knight, David Knight team and
audience and stuff like that. I'll turn

1647
02:10:00.399 --> 02:10:03.640
a rock fan. Get any questions
you want in for Eric or compliments to

1648
02:10:03.760 --> 02:10:07.279
Eric, anything like that. Let
me know. Harps is watching from Australia,

1649
02:10:07.319 --> 02:10:11.239
of course, where the roads are
straight and flat in most areas unless

1650
02:10:11.239 --> 02:10:16.560
you're out maybe in Toowoomba or something
like that. But Harp's nice to have

1651
02:10:16.600 --> 02:10:20.239
you there. Little John is there
as well, And yeah, feel free

1652
02:10:20.279 --> 02:10:22.239
to put your comments in there,
Jason Barcas says, when you are not

1653
02:10:22.359 --> 02:10:26.720
wearing a Trivium T shirt. Yes, is there a band named Trivium?

1654
02:10:26.920 --> 02:10:31.720
I wonder if there is one.
Yeah, we'll find out, but yeah,

1655
02:10:31.760 --> 02:10:35.319
the Trivium. Yeah, I'm glad
you mentioned that because I was gonna

1656
02:10:35.760 --> 02:10:39.359
teach with a private school this winter
but ended up not doing that, taking

1657
02:10:39.399 --> 02:10:43.079
little time to take take away from
teaching and one of the key things for

1658
02:10:43.159 --> 02:10:50.119
them is teaching of the trivium.
It's absolutely essential, and there's no possible

1659
02:10:50.159 --> 02:10:54.520
way that even a public school system
can approach teaching the trivium because they have

1660
02:10:54.640 --> 02:10:58.720
seized the opportunity of the parents to
pull away from what is important for the

1661
02:10:58.720 --> 02:11:03.359
student, and so the public school
system is always deciding for people and then

1662
02:11:03.439 --> 02:11:09.039
immediately removes the ability to be able
to teach people how to think. It's

1663
02:11:09.520 --> 02:11:15.680
it's pretty scary stuff and harp says
nice s k s Eric. Oh,

1664
02:11:15.800 --> 02:11:22.920
yeah, you recognized it. Mine. Mine's a check model. Actually you

1665
02:11:22.000 --> 02:11:28.520
might see the grenade launcher attachment on
it. Yeah, let's put you in

1666
02:11:28.560 --> 02:11:31.720
the full screen there, Hold on
a second, I'm gonna put you in

1667
02:11:31.720 --> 02:11:39.239
the full screen. Okay, and
see. Okay, let's see if I

1668
02:11:39.239 --> 02:11:46.720
can hold Let's see. How's that? Oh, now I'm gonna get slatted

1669
02:11:46.760 --> 02:11:52.880
for sure. Probably that's the Uh, this is the grenade attachment that that

1670
02:11:52.960 --> 02:11:56.399
came with these. I do not
have a grenade to go with it,

1671
02:11:56.439 --> 02:12:09.439
though, and it's it's chiefly for
display purposes only. Hey, guard me

1672
02:12:09.479 --> 02:12:18.960
still there. Jason would like to
know Eric what your daily driver is.

1673
02:12:18.520 --> 02:12:22.520
Okay, Well, I have several. I've got a two thousand and two

1674
02:12:22.560 --> 02:12:28.640
Nissan Frontier pickup, which I esteem
and love very much because it does not

1675
02:12:28.840 --> 02:12:33.800
have any advanced driver assistance technology.
And when I need to replace the battery,

1676
02:12:33.800 --> 02:12:37.039
I don't need to have a flatbed
and do a dealer to get it

1677
02:12:37.079 --> 02:12:41.399
done either. Yeah. I've also
got a bunch of motorcycles, and when

1678
02:12:41.399 --> 02:12:43.479
the weather's nice, I have my
old muscle car that I take out every

1679
02:12:43.479 --> 02:12:48.159
once in a while, the Great
Pumpkin, my seventy six Pontiact trans Am.

1680
02:12:48.800 --> 02:12:52.000
That's awesome. That is awesome.
You know, I think about some

1681
02:12:52.119 --> 02:12:54.960
of those cars, the muscle cars
and stuff, and that gets me thinking

1682
02:12:54.960 --> 02:12:58.159
about, you know, cars that
I might have seen a canniball run or

1683
02:12:58.279 --> 02:13:01.039
that sort of thing. And then
you always I always hear about the General

1684
02:13:01.119 --> 02:13:05.920
Lee. I wonder how many copies
of the General Lee they had, you

1685
02:13:05.000 --> 02:13:09.119
know, because they were always pulling
stunts and if some of them, I

1686
02:13:09.159 --> 02:13:13.319
mean they just they bashed those things
up so much it was absolutely crazy.

1687
02:13:15.359 --> 02:13:20.359
You know, mo part people know
about this. They trashed an astounding number

1688
02:13:20.439 --> 02:13:24.000
of sixty nine Dodge chargers because you
know, every time you watch the car

1689
02:13:24.079 --> 02:13:26.359
jump, you know, you could
see they cut the scene when the car

1690
02:13:26.520 --> 02:13:31.159
lands because that's the frame bent.
And it's tragic the way they destroyed those

1691
02:13:31.159 --> 02:13:33.800
cars. But you know, back
in the day, you know, when

1692
02:13:33.800 --> 02:13:37.159
the Duke's Hazard was what I think
it came out in like nineteen seventy nine,

1693
02:13:37.199 --> 02:13:41.159
I guess, yeah. I think
at that time, the Charger was

1694
02:13:41.199 --> 02:13:43.920
just an old car, right,
I mean, it wasn't this highly desirable

1695
02:13:45.760 --> 02:13:50.239
relic of the beforetime that it is. Unfortunately those cars are gone. And

1696
02:13:50.279 --> 02:13:54.920
the same with Smoking the Bandit.
They trashed a bunch of transcends in filming

1697
02:13:54.960 --> 02:13:58.960
that the famous jump over the pond
that was the end of that trans amd.

1698
02:14:01.279 --> 02:14:05.079
It's crazy, It's absolutely crazy.
All I could think of is,

1699
02:14:05.960 --> 02:14:09.760
you know, watching stunts when I
was a kid, wanting to be a

1700
02:14:09.760 --> 02:14:15.079
stunt driver, glad that I'm not
a stunt driver, and just loving watching

1701
02:14:15.239 --> 02:14:18.520
you know, bash up derby things. And as you mentioned that charger,

1702
02:14:18.279 --> 02:14:22.199
you know, the charger by that
time, most of the chargers that were

1703
02:14:22.239 --> 02:14:26.439
around were you know, seven ten
years old. They were beater cars and

1704
02:14:26.479 --> 02:14:30.680
they weren't considered, as you say, the highly collectible before times vehicles.

1705
02:14:31.039 --> 02:14:33.479
And I love watching those things now
and I never even watched that show when

1706
02:14:33.479 --> 02:14:37.840
I was a kid because we couldn't
get CBS in on the on the antennas

1707
02:14:37.000 --> 02:14:41.119
very well, was always, you
know, the ant parade, so we

1708
02:14:41.159 --> 02:14:43.560
couldn't see anything, you know,
and one of the one of the aspects

1709
02:14:43.600 --> 02:14:46.359
of it we all know about this. It's really just despicable, is the

1710
02:14:46.359 --> 02:14:50.319
way the left has tried to frame
the show The Dukes of Haaszard Is somehow

1711
02:14:50.920 --> 02:14:58.399
being a racist show because the car
had the Confederate battle flag on the roof,

1712
02:14:58.640 --> 02:15:01.239
and of course it was the far
this thing from that, but they

1713
02:15:01.279 --> 02:15:05.000
try to they try to make that
association. It's very important for them to

1714
02:15:05.000 --> 02:15:07.680
do that because if the topic gets
discussed at any depth, you find out

1715
02:15:07.680 --> 02:15:11.399
that what the states of the Southern
Confederacy were trying to do is essentially the

1716
02:15:11.399 --> 02:15:16.840
same thing that the American colonies did
do successfully, which was to secede from

1717
02:15:16.880 --> 02:15:20.840
a union that they didn't want to
be part of. Oh, now,

1718
02:15:20.880 --> 02:15:24.000
come on, what are you talking
about. It's government by the people,

1719
02:15:24.000 --> 02:15:26.680
for the people and of the people. It's not in any way imposed.

1720
02:15:26.760 --> 02:15:31.039
It's we and you will be part
of it. Actually, one of my

1721
02:15:31.119 --> 02:15:37.000
favorite articles by the great writer and
with hl Menkin is one. It's a

1722
02:15:37.079 --> 02:15:41.199
very short article that he in which
he dissects the Gettysburg Address by Abraham Lincoln,

1723
02:15:41.520 --> 02:15:46.439
and he describes it and un paraphrasing
here as one of the most stupendous

1724
02:15:46.239 --> 02:15:50.359
pieces of poetry and dissembling that has
ever been produced ever, you know.

1725
02:15:50.399 --> 02:15:54.720
And when she talks about the people
of the people, by the people,

1726
02:15:54.760 --> 02:15:58.039
and for the people shall not perish
from this earth. I mean, the

1727
02:15:58.039 --> 02:16:03.399
whole point this slow that occurred was
to do exactly the opposite, to prevent

1728
02:16:03.560 --> 02:16:07.000
the states of the Southern Confederacy from
establishing a government of their people by their

1729
02:16:07.039 --> 02:16:11.760
people. Perfectly stated. That is
so true, Eric, And as a

1730
02:16:11.800 --> 02:16:18.880
guy who had to play Abraham Lincoln
in fourth grade and recite the Gettysburg Address

1731
02:16:18.960 --> 02:16:22.000
on the bi centennial, I don't
know how many times for different audiences all

1732
02:16:22.039 --> 02:16:26.079
around the town. And I had
and in fact, it's funny that I

1733
02:16:26.159 --> 02:16:31.239
have. I had a hat similar
to this, similar to this hat.

1734
02:16:31.319 --> 02:16:37.799
I had my stove pipe hat and
I think this is the this is the

1735
02:16:37.799 --> 02:16:41.360
way that it goes. And I
had a fake beard that looped around my

1736
02:16:41.520 --> 02:16:45.479
ears with elastic bands and it went
down like this, and I had to

1737
02:16:45.479 --> 02:16:48.959
do that stupid address over and over
and over again because I was the tall

1738
02:16:50.040 --> 02:16:54.440
kid. You know, it's some
interesting stuff about Lincoln. Hitler admired him

1739
02:16:54.479 --> 02:16:58.000
greatly. Yes, if you read
there's a section in moncof where Hitler talks

1740
02:16:58.040 --> 02:17:05.520
about Lincoln and how he consolidated the
central government of the United States and turned

1741
02:17:05.799 --> 02:17:09.120
what had been largely independent states in
the old school sense, as in independent

1742
02:17:09.159 --> 02:17:16.680
countries into essentially administrative districts controlled by
a centralized authority, which is exactly what

1743
02:17:16.760 --> 02:17:20.200
he did, Yes, exactly exactly. And now David is the one who

1744
02:17:20.239 --> 02:17:24.239
brought it up to my attention about
how Italy, which had been you know,

1745
02:17:24.319 --> 02:17:28.840
city states for so so long around
that same time, so consolidation into

1746
02:17:28.879 --> 02:17:33.559
the nation state. All around the
world, there was this tendency to see

1747
02:17:33.559 --> 02:17:41.239
things consolidating into the nation states and
the growth of these larger hegemonic areas.

1748
02:17:41.719 --> 02:17:43.440
And we can see this now.
And you know, my brother went to

1749
02:17:43.520 --> 02:17:48.840
Washington and Lee University for law school, and it was until he was there

1750
02:17:48.760 --> 02:17:52.319
he had not been aware of the
sense of the people in the South and

1751
02:17:52.360 --> 02:18:01.120
how they really understand that their push
for independence was utterly crushed by a evil

1752
02:18:01.159 --> 02:18:03.840
person named Abraham Lincoln, and that
really opens a lot of eyes when you

1753
02:18:03.879 --> 02:18:07.159
find out. And again I'll recommend
Tom de Lorenzo's book The Real Lincoln.

1754
02:18:09.040 --> 02:18:13.280
Anybody who's interested in this topic should
read. He's written several books on the

1755
02:18:13.319 --> 02:18:16.159
topic, and he's a fantastic scholar, and in addition to that, he's

1756
02:18:16.200 --> 02:18:22.079
a great storyteller too. Oh yeah, this is really really top shelf and

1757
02:18:22.120 --> 02:18:26.239
it's a good read as well as
being an educational read. Absolutely well,

1758
02:18:26.360 --> 02:18:30.159
Eric, thank you so much,
Happy New Year, and thanks again coming

1759
02:18:30.239 --> 02:18:33.799
in a little bit after time that
was promised. I'm glad we were able

1760
02:18:33.799 --> 02:18:35.280
to bring you in. It's so
great to have you here. I'll give

1761
02:18:35.319 --> 02:18:39.159
you at a little something for going
away. This will be of course,

1762
02:18:39.639 --> 02:18:43.360
I could play cards by Gary Newman, but I'll do that on my show.

1763
02:18:43.399 --> 02:18:46.239
We'll do it on Liberty Conspiracy.
Right now, we'll go with something

1764
02:18:46.280 --> 02:18:50.920
a little more universally accepted. Again, a little Willie Nelson here he comes.

1765
02:19:01.600 --> 02:19:11.719
Gotta get the volume up here.
There we go all the road again.

1766
02:19:13.399 --> 02:19:20.399
I just can't wait to get all
the again, my friend, can't

1767
02:19:20.440 --> 02:19:26.159
wait to get all the road to
get Eric. Thank you, Thank you,

1768
02:19:26.280 --> 02:19:30.159
my friend, and thank you for
a great year of being a stalwart

1769
02:19:30.760 --> 02:19:35.399
buddy, a good man and a
real defender of freedom and a great friend

1770
02:19:35.399 --> 02:19:39.239
to the David Night Show. Thanks. Likewise, I'm looking forward hopefully to

1771
02:19:39.360 --> 02:19:43.520
a better year this year. I
I tip my cap to you, my

1772
02:19:43.600 --> 02:19:46.159
friend, and then this is no
Abraham Lincoln right here. I think of

1773
02:19:46.200 --> 02:19:50.879
this as a man out on the
out on the town. I'm a highly

1774
02:19:50.920 --> 02:19:56.559
sophisticated man about town. Thanks.
Eric, We'll talk to you again soon.

1775
02:19:56.840 --> 02:19:58.879
I really appreciate it. You got
it, buddy, Take care well.

1776
02:20:00.000 --> 02:20:03.680

to do a little something else here.

1788
02:20:52.399 --> 02:20:56.559
Let's talk about an issue that I
think might be pertinent. And you'll see

1789
02:20:56.559 --> 02:21:03.239
this on the backside of MRC TV. I'll show you the backside inside.

1790
02:21:03.280 --> 02:21:05.920
And I don't know whether this piece
has been published, but this could be

1791
02:21:05.959 --> 02:21:09.360
a little preview for you. So
let's go with a little more music,

1792
02:21:09.399 --> 02:21:37.440
one and all from none other than
Al Stewart. On the Border, great

1793
02:21:37.520 --> 02:21:41.360
stuff, what a great, great
song Spanish Civil War. Here the ing

1794
02:21:41.520 --> 02:21:58.040
boats going guns as across the Spanish
when the ghost sounds the clowns, boats

1795
02:21:58.159 --> 02:22:11.959
and silver on the oh man,
oh man. I love that song.

1796
02:22:13.040 --> 02:22:16.760
And again one of my favorite portions
of the song is when he says,

1797
02:22:16.079 --> 02:22:20.440
in the village where I grew up, nothing seems the same. It's just

1798
02:22:20.559 --> 02:22:24.600
the patterns that remain an empty shell. And maybe that happens to some people

1799
02:22:24.680 --> 02:22:30.000
over time. Not sure. But
first we're going to turn to a place

1800
02:22:30.040 --> 02:22:33.520
where I went to college, Boston
University, as I say, Boston,

1801
02:22:33.079 --> 02:22:37.959
and how some people are using the
term happy Woo Year when it comes to

1802
02:22:39.280 --> 02:22:45.000
the issue of immigration. Here is
the mayor of Boston, Michelle Wou,

1803
02:22:45.159 --> 02:22:50.440
the same woman who had her party
where she only invited people, as she

1804
02:22:50.559 --> 02:22:54.440
said, of color, and then
when they got caught doing that for their

1805
02:22:54.879 --> 02:23:00.879
holiday party, they apologized without apologizing, saying, oh, sorry, we

1806
02:23:00.959 --> 02:23:03.879
didn't mean to send that invitation out
to people who might be oh, I

1807
02:23:03.879 --> 02:23:07.879
don't know, Caucasian skinned or something
like that. Sorry about that, You're

1808
02:23:07.959 --> 02:23:13.760
not invited. So here's Michelle Wu
talking about immigration, and she makes some

1809
02:23:13.920 --> 02:23:20.040
points that I think would be very
agreeable. Many people would find this,

1810
02:23:20.360 --> 02:23:24.040
they'd be in agreement to say,
absolutely. But the problem is that she

1811
02:23:24.239 --> 02:23:30.879
kind of misleads about the way that
this central planning government immigration system from the

1812
02:23:30.959 --> 02:23:35.639
FEDS over to and on down to
the States is being managed. Here we

1813
02:23:35.719 --> 02:23:39.360
go, Every person of a human
being has the legal right to come to

1814
02:23:39.440 --> 02:23:45.440
the United States and seek asylum or
shelter, and those policies have been in

1815
02:23:45.520 --> 02:23:50.920
place for a long time. But
when the review of that individual's particular situation

1816
02:23:50.280 --> 02:23:58.159
and the then decision to allow the
pathway to say and or work authorization that

1817
02:23:58.239 --> 02:24:01.879
comes along with that, and that
process is so drawn out. People are

1818
02:24:01.920 --> 02:24:07.399
stuck. They are looking to work, looking to contribute, looking to be

1819
02:24:07.559 --> 02:24:13.680
in a safe democracy where they can
raise their families. And we at the

1820
02:24:13.719 --> 02:24:20.040
city level are now dealing with many
of the impacts of the processes having people

1821
02:24:20.079 --> 02:24:22.200
fall through the cracks at the federal
level. So we're working very closely with

1822
02:24:22.280 --> 02:24:28.000
the state. This is affecting spilities
across the Commonwealth to be able to trioge

1823
02:24:28.040 --> 02:24:33.000
the situation, to create temporary housing
so that families can get settled. Every

1824
02:24:33.639 --> 02:24:39.079
person, every human being, right, she's got to use that term triage.

1825
02:24:39.280 --> 02:24:43.079
So I heard I hear from a
lot of leftists, which is bureaucracy

1826
02:24:43.200 --> 02:24:46.079
has got to look at this and
we'll get back to you on it.

1827
02:24:46.159 --> 02:24:50.479
We're triaging. I love that we're
triaging. It makes us sound sophisticated.

1828
02:24:50.760 --> 02:24:54.760
Okay, you sophist, go for
it. But the other thing about it

1829
02:24:54.920 --> 02:25:01.840
is that wouldn't that be wonderful if
that's actually what going on. First,

1830
02:25:01.200 --> 02:25:07.920
one of the big misapprehensions, misnomers
or erroneous assumptions she promulgates is that,

1831
02:25:09.959 --> 02:25:15.719
first, I don't get paid for
my move, and she is neglecting to

1832
02:25:15.879 --> 02:25:20.879
mention that the governor of the state
of Massachusetts more heally declared an emergency,

1833
02:25:20.040 --> 02:25:26.159
which kicked in a Ducaccas era statute
in Massachusetts that allows the state to take

1834
02:25:26.280 --> 02:25:31.840
tax money from other people to pay
for migrants to live in hotels, get

1835
02:25:31.920 --> 02:25:37.639
medical and food care, and get
lawyers because you know they're here to work.

1836
02:25:39.159 --> 02:25:43.000
Now if someone wants to move for
work, I, as a libertarian,

1837
02:25:43.120 --> 02:25:50.520
voluntarist and anarchist, I will point
out again that because government does not

1838
02:25:50.799 --> 02:25:56.120
allow us to express our own valuation
in a free market, nothing government says.

1839
02:25:56.120 --> 02:26:01.399
Anyone can claim nothing government does,
can anyone say has any value.

1840
02:26:03.319 --> 02:26:07.760
No one can say what government does
is good because no one is allowed to

1841
02:26:07.879 --> 02:26:11.440
determine good. All the way up
the chain. The politicians are taking money,

1842
02:26:11.719 --> 02:26:15.760
they're not using their own so they're
not deciding for themselves what is good

1843
02:26:15.879 --> 02:26:18.920
or bad and risking their own earnings, and the people are going to go

1844
02:26:20.000 --> 02:26:24.559
to jail. They're doing it under
duress. So the actual concept of good

1845
02:26:24.760 --> 02:26:30.280
is completely removed from everything. Everything
the state does, the state in its

1846
02:26:30.360 --> 02:26:35.399
generic form, in its normative sense. So that's just an impossibility to claim

1847
02:26:35.440 --> 02:26:39.719
that so that then applies to the
borders. As I said with Al Stewart's

1848
02:26:39.760 --> 02:26:45.719
theme, you can't actually say that
where the government places a border wall is

1849
02:26:45.760 --> 02:26:50.799
where anyone wanted the border wall.
We don't know. We just don't know.

1850
02:26:52.280 --> 02:26:56.079
Valuation has been removed. Any critical
analysis of this comes up to this

1851
02:26:56.319 --> 02:27:01.760
conclusion. It's impossible to reach any
other conclusion. And logically it's just not

1852
02:27:01.959 --> 02:27:09.159
possible because subjective valuation is destroyed by
the state's coercion, by their assumption of

1853
02:27:09.239 --> 02:27:13.399
the legal authority to use aggressive violence. It's everything's done by threats. And

1854
02:27:13.479 --> 02:27:16.120
if you want to see what people
actually want, then you have to allow

1855
02:27:16.159 --> 02:27:20.760
for private property and people to put
up their own fences on their private property.

1856
02:27:20.840 --> 02:27:24.440
Then that shows that somebody actually wants
a border there. That's all right.

1857
02:27:24.920 --> 02:27:28.319
Now. The other thing about this
is again, the government doesn't subsidize

1858
02:27:28.559 --> 02:27:33.120
my life. Do they subsidize your
life when you want to move? No?

1859
02:27:33.799 --> 02:27:37.920
Do they create temporary housing for you
when you want to move, No,

1860
02:27:37.440 --> 02:27:43.479
of course not. The central authority
is something that now they're not only

1861
02:27:45.479 --> 02:27:50.079
saying that, well, Massachusetts is
a sanctuary state, in Boston's a sanctuary

1862
02:27:50.239 --> 02:27:56.120
city, whatever the city might be
san Francisco wherever it might be right and

1863
02:27:56.280 --> 02:28:01.879
the leftists New York, for example, the leftists are claiming, well,

1864
02:28:01.200 --> 02:28:05.959
you know, we're still in favor
of migrants. You saw that. I

1865
02:28:07.040 --> 02:28:09.040
put up another screen here. It
just flashed on my face. So let's

1866
02:28:09.040 --> 02:28:16.920
show this. We're still in favor
of the SANCTU sanctuary city comic approach or

1867
02:28:16.000 --> 02:28:20.440
a label and the system behind it, which is that the Feds will move

1868
02:28:20.520 --> 02:28:24.840
people to these places. But the
system that we have right now, according

1869
02:28:24.879 --> 02:28:31.760
to people like Michelle Wou and mayor
of Boston and happy Woo Year and are

1870
02:28:31.840 --> 02:28:35.840
you with me Michelle Wu as Steely
Dan would say, and more heally and

1871
02:28:37.079 --> 02:28:41.719
others like Eric Adams, the mayor
of New York City, or Governor Hokeal

1872
02:28:43.000 --> 02:28:46.719
of New York it's all well,
now there's an emergency, so do you

1873
02:28:46.879 --> 02:28:52.840
want any more migrants? Well,
we want money and power to be able

1874
02:28:52.840 --> 02:28:56.000
to handle the migrants. So let's
look at this one. I mentioned this

1875
02:28:56.559 --> 02:29:03.000
Friday on Liberty Conspiracy and here it
is. This is on the back side

1876
02:29:03.040 --> 02:29:05.719
of MRCTV. It should be coming
out soon. I don't know whether it's

1877
02:29:05.760 --> 02:29:11.959
been published yet, but here's the
headline. New York City mayor issues executive

1878
02:29:11.239 --> 02:29:20.280
order targeting migrant buses with seizure.
We're not talking brain seizures either. My

1879
02:29:20.399 --> 02:29:26.040
hat would hold that in. Here's
some more. Perhaps due to the daily

1880
02:29:26.120 --> 02:29:31.639
barrage of stories revealing vast immigration disputes
in the US, many Americans might feel

1881
02:29:31.799 --> 02:29:39.719
twisted darkly ironic satisfaction seeing one of
the highest profile proponents of so called sanctuary

1882
02:29:39.840 --> 02:29:46.040
cities and unchecked immigration appear month by
month to be changing his proverbial tune.

1883
02:29:46.719 --> 02:29:50.719
Indeed, New York City Mayor Eric
Adams, Democrat, seems to be growing

1884
02:29:50.799 --> 02:29:56.239
more averse to unlimited immigration, and
on December twenty seventh, the Big Hancho

1885
02:29:56.360 --> 02:30:03.559
of the Big Apple once more went
high profile, announcing his issuance of an

1886
02:30:03.639 --> 02:30:09.200
executive order that appears to be part
of a showy game of chicken with Texas

1887
02:30:09.280 --> 02:30:15.000
Governor Greg Abbott, Republican. That
looks like another desperate attempt to get the

1888
02:30:15.120 --> 02:30:18.840
thirty four trillion dollars in debt FEDS
to hand his city more cash, and

1889
02:30:20.159 --> 02:30:26.399
and which risks easy challenge on constitutional
grounds. Adams and this, I'm trying

1890
02:30:26.440 --> 02:30:31.200
to warn some of the people who
might be conservatives who are saying, oh,

1891
02:30:31.239 --> 02:30:37.120
I'm getting satisfaction out of this well. Adams is targeting chartered buses from

1892
02:30:37.239 --> 02:30:43.799
Texas, which may or may not
carry migrants put on those buses by agents

1893
02:30:43.879 --> 02:30:48.040
of the Lone Star government under orders
by Abbot and the New York City Mayor.

1894
02:30:48.200 --> 02:30:52.639
Said quote, Today, I'm announcing
an executive order requiring charter buses.

1895
02:30:52.680 --> 02:30:56.559
In fact, why don't we go
with this? Just last week, fourteen

1896
02:30:56.639 --> 02:31:01.959
buses arrived in a single day,
the most ever recorded by officials at our

1897
02:31:03.079 --> 02:31:07.760
intake center. We are in close
contact with other cities and state leaders across

1898
02:31:07.799 --> 02:31:15.719
the country who are seeing a similar
increase in arrivals to better coordinate these arrivals.

1899
02:31:15.760 --> 02:31:22.920
Today, I'm announcing an executive order
requiring charter buses transporting migrants, those

1900
02:31:22.120 --> 02:31:30.520
often contracted by the state of Texas, to provide thirty two hour notice in

1901
02:31:30.639 --> 02:31:35.440
advance of their arrival into New York
City. All Right, we'll posit right

1902
02:31:35.479 --> 02:31:41.719
there and continue, I wrote.
If the buses failed to comply, Adams

1903
02:31:41.760 --> 02:31:46.959
has declared it a Class B misdemeanor
that could result in fines and or the

1904
02:31:46.040 --> 02:31:54.200
impounding of the violating buses. On
a practical level, Adams's executive order easily

1905
02:31:54.319 --> 02:32:01.879
can be circumvented, as Leah Barkucas
reports for Town Hall after Chicago Mayor Brandon

1906
02:32:01.000 --> 02:32:09.120
Johnson Let's Go Brandon Democrat instituted a
similar gestapo like edict last month, bus

1907
02:32:09.239 --> 02:32:15.639
drivers simply changed their destinations. Quote. Bus operators in Chicago have gone around

1908
02:32:15.680 --> 02:32:20.719
the new rules by dropping illegal border
crossers off in suburbs, and Governor Abbott

1909
02:32:20.760 --> 02:32:26.479
has also flown them to the city
instead, I wrote. Additionally, charter

1910
02:32:26.600 --> 02:32:30.719
buses from Texas can stop outside the
city or state of New York and allow

1911
02:32:30.840 --> 02:32:35.719
new buses from other states to take
the passengers to New York City. Adams's

1912
02:32:35.840 --> 02:32:41.840
claim to be able to issue simply
issue an order also seems to be completely

1913
02:32:41.920 --> 02:32:48.760
decoupled from any mayoral responsibilities the city, state, or federal statutes and constitutions

1914
02:32:48.879 --> 02:32:56.000
might allow. Likewise, any decent
lawyer will have a field day pointing out

1915
02:32:56.360 --> 02:33:01.680
the numerous ways in which Adams's plan
flouts nearly half the Bill of Rights.

1916
02:33:01.760 --> 02:33:07.000
Regardless, Adams added, to make
sure we have sufficient staffing, We're also

1917
02:33:07.120 --> 02:33:13.440
requiring that these charter buses arrive only
between eight thirty am and twelve pm Monday

1918
02:33:13.479 --> 02:33:20.920
through Friday, and only drop off
passengers at one spot unless directed otherwise by

1919
02:33:20.040 --> 02:33:28.760
New York City Emergency Management end quote, which is about as moral, constitutional,

1920
02:33:28.200 --> 02:33:35.120
and practically enforceable as commanding uber drivers
to not pick up people outside those

1921
02:33:35.280 --> 02:33:41.000
morning hours and telling drivers and riders
where they may and may not disembark.

1922
02:33:41.479 --> 02:33:46.680
And those listening or reading with me, you're probably aware that government agents continually

1923
02:33:46.760 --> 02:33:52.000
try to do that, which is
immoral and of course massively unconstitutional, because

1924
02:33:52.040 --> 02:33:56.000
they have to know where you're going, and they have no reason to wonder

1925
02:33:56.040 --> 02:34:00.680
where you're going, They have no
warrant, where are they going? How

1926
02:34:00.760 --> 02:34:05.440
do they know? And of course
I wrote, as end wokeness posted,

1927
02:34:05.559 --> 02:34:09.719
And by the way, my impression
of the mayor might have taken that information

1928
02:34:09.920 --> 02:34:13.159
and sort of couched it underneath.
The impression made it a more difficult to

1929
02:34:13.239 --> 02:34:18.639
absorb. So I'll just mention again. They're requiring charter busses that arrive they

1930
02:34:18.799 --> 02:34:22.120
arrive only between eight thirty am and
twelve pm, and that they drop off

1931
02:34:22.200 --> 02:34:28.479
passengers at one spot. So I
said, as endwokeness posted on December twenty

1932
02:34:28.559 --> 02:34:33.959
ninth, bus drivers and passengers aren't
paying Adams any heed quote. Two days

1933
02:34:33.959 --> 02:34:39.200
ago, New York Mayor Adams Eric
Adams signed an executive order to curb the

1934
02:34:39.239 --> 02:34:43.000
flow of migrant buses from Texas.
For the second night in a row,

1935
02:34:43.200 --> 02:34:48.079
buses from Texas are defying his order, and we can check out the Twitter

1936
02:34:48.159 --> 02:34:52.920
feed on that one, and you
can see here is the video. Oh

1937
02:34:54.120 --> 02:35:03.159
my goodness, what's this? This
is video provided by Viral News New York

1938
02:35:03.239 --> 02:35:16.760
City and here. Now, I'm
curious as to where they're going. And

1939
02:35:18.360 --> 02:35:22.559
of course there's the perpetual question of
where did they get the money to make

1940
02:35:22.639 --> 02:35:26.799
their moves? How is it that
they just had backpacks. Where did they

1941
02:35:26.840 --> 02:35:31.799
get the money for food and shelter
and toiletries and things like that as they

1942
02:35:33.120 --> 02:35:39.479
traveled typically through Panama up from Guatemala. Who's paying for all that? I

1943
02:35:39.520 --> 02:35:45.040
don't know. It's very strange,
I said. Regardless of Adam's lack of

1944
02:35:45.159 --> 02:35:50.639
forethought and stunning lack of enforcement capacity, there are deeper points to take away

1945
02:35:50.680 --> 02:35:56.280
from this, as noted his claim
to have the power to command that people

1946
02:35:56.440 --> 02:36:01.200
driving buses that are entering from other
states, Well, it implies Adam's assumption

1947
02:36:01.680 --> 02:36:09.559
that he can disregard the Fourth Amendment
and demand papers please of anyone driving a

1948
02:36:09.639 --> 02:36:16.040
bus into the city Clearly his tactic
is reminiscent of a totalitarian state, and

1949
02:36:16.159 --> 02:36:22.120
it might prompt a few freedom backers
to wonder how American cities and states got

1950
02:36:22.200 --> 02:36:28.520
to the point where, without judge
issued public warrants, police agents of government

1951
02:36:28.639 --> 02:36:35.360
can demand IDs, demand license permission, slips, stop and frisk people,

1952
02:36:35.559 --> 02:36:39.040
as they tried in New York a
few years ago, contrary to the Fourth

1953
02:36:39.079 --> 02:36:46.799
Amendment, and prohibit business operation without
a trial or accusation of a crime against

1954
02:36:46.000 --> 02:36:50.319
other people. If you're doing something
that the state prohibits, just because the

1955
02:36:50.360 --> 02:36:58.280
state prohibits it, that's not a
crime against people. Those all are not

1956
02:36:58.440 --> 02:37:01.959
only contrary to the Fourth Amendment,
all of those things are contrary to the

1957
02:37:01.040 --> 02:37:09.559
Fifth, sixth, and eighth Amendments. We're talking jurisprudence before a jury of

1958
02:37:09.639 --> 02:37:13.959
your peers, a speedy trial,
the ability to be able to address your

1959
02:37:15.000 --> 02:37:20.879
accusers, and the prohibition against cruel
and unusual punishment. If they're going to

1960
02:37:20.920 --> 02:37:24.719
take away licenses without a trial,
that is punishment. How can you be

1961
02:37:24.840 --> 02:37:31.600
punished unless you've been tried, I
said, Adams doesn't seem concerned with the

1962
02:37:31.719 --> 02:37:37.159
Constitution. Admittedly, the Biden administration's
lack of border enforcement can inspire feelings of

1963
02:37:37.360 --> 02:37:43.079
anger and frustration among those who see
a bankrupt US government, adding human burdens

1964
02:37:43.120 --> 02:37:46.959
to welfareism, police needs, and
other day to day factors in the operation

1965
02:37:48.079 --> 02:37:52.719
of the nation and the various states. But despite it appearing to be minutie,

1966
02:37:52.440 --> 02:37:58.840
a close reading of the US Constitution
during these explosive times. This explosive

1967
02:37:58.040 --> 02:38:03.799
time also allows us to see a
peculiar difference between what the FEDS are allowed

1968
02:38:03.840 --> 02:38:09.079
to do for immigration policing in Texas
versus what the Constitution might be claimed to

1969
02:38:09.200 --> 02:38:13.840
grant for the FEDS to do in
New York. So I mentioned this previously

1970
02:38:13.920 --> 02:38:16.559
on David Show. I'll bring it
up again because it's a perennial subject here

1971
02:38:16.600 --> 02:38:22.200
with the borders. Article one,
Section nine of the Constitution is the only

1972
02:38:22.319 --> 02:38:28.440
portion of the US Constitution that might
be misinterpreted as pertaining to migration, but

1973
02:38:28.559 --> 02:38:35.280
it only applies to the original thirteen
states and really focuses on the importation of

1974
02:38:35.479 --> 02:38:41.200
slaves. Reading quote, the migration
or importation of such persons as any of

1975
02:38:41.280 --> 02:38:46.559
the States now existing shall think proper
to admit, shall not be prohibited by

1976
02:38:46.639 --> 02:38:50.639
the Congress prior to the year one
thousand eight hundred and eight, but a

1977
02:38:50.879 --> 02:38:56.399
tax or duty may be imposed on
such importation not exceeding ten dollars for each

1978
02:38:56.559 --> 02:39:00.799
person. And I'll just quickly show
you here. You'll be to see the

1979
02:39:01.159 --> 02:39:09.520
hyperlink for my story right there,
which goes to this is constitution annotated from

1980
02:39:09.559 --> 02:39:13.639
the Congress itself, and it says
here, of course, it is restrictions

1981
02:39:13.719 --> 02:39:20.799
on the slave trade. So that's
what the government itself acknowledges. They don't

1982
02:39:20.799 --> 02:39:26.440
even acknowledge any power over migration or
immigration from foreign people coming from other countries.

1983
02:39:28.360 --> 02:39:31.200
It's very important to keep this in
mind. And then I brought up

1984
02:39:31.520 --> 02:39:35.399
this little bit here. I said, there's a lot to learn from the

1985
02:39:35.479 --> 02:39:41.600
current immigration conflagration. Now they cut
a little bit out here whereas I mentioned,

1986
02:39:41.760 --> 02:39:45.360
Texas is supposed to be up to
Texas because it's not one of the

1987
02:39:45.399 --> 02:39:50.280
original thirteen states. The Texas Constitution
has a Bureau of Immigration in it.

1988
02:39:52.159 --> 02:39:54.319
And they cut this out for brevity, obviously, because it was over a

1989
02:39:54.399 --> 02:39:58.159
thousand worlds wards long. So this
is ready to go out, if it

1990
02:39:58.200 --> 02:40:01.120
hasn't already gone out. The editor
has seen it and done some work on

1991
02:40:01.200 --> 02:40:03.399
it already. I can see there's
a lot to learn in the current immigration

1992
02:40:03.600 --> 02:40:09.879
conflagration a lot of legal scholarship that
lets one see what the founders intended and

1993
02:40:09.000 --> 02:40:13.639
how utterly screwed up the current look
to DC for answers is. But in

1994
02:40:13.719 --> 02:40:18.879
a world where after being so overtly
pro open borders, people like Adams now

1995
02:40:18.959 --> 02:40:22.200
grandstand and even call on the federal
government to hand them more money to handle

1996
02:40:22.239 --> 02:40:28.280
the crisis, it's important to see
how and why this problem exists. Biden's

1997
02:40:28.319 --> 02:40:33.920
mismanagement of the immigration matter might be
intentional, but the reliance on federal answers

1998
02:40:33.440 --> 02:40:37.040
for what is supposed to be a
state issue is not going to see long

1999
02:40:37.159 --> 02:40:41.639
term security, and moves like Adams
will simply see more erosion of the Bill

2000
02:40:41.760 --> 02:40:48.479
of Rights. So let me know
your thoughts inside Rockfin and Rumble everybody on

2001
02:40:48.559 --> 02:40:52.879
this January first, and thank you
so much for donating. I really appreciate

2002
02:40:52.920 --> 02:40:56.000
it. Wow, I see Harps
and dougalug thank you both so much.

2003
02:40:56.200 --> 02:41:00.440
Hey, I appreciate that I thought
they were going to complement even show.

2004
02:41:00.719 --> 02:41:03.959
Harp says, great job, Guard, Happy new year everyone, Thank you

2005
02:41:05.120 --> 02:41:09.559
Harp so much. And dougle Luck
says Happy new year, everybody, Thank

2006
02:41:09.639 --> 02:41:11.120
you Guard. Well, thank you, and it's nice to be able to

2007
02:41:11.879 --> 02:41:16.239
say hello, even wearing my silly
top hat. I want to turn with

2008
02:41:16.799 --> 02:41:24.639
one more piece of information for you
to that idea of big things coming in

2009
02:41:26.399 --> 02:41:31.719
the new year. So while we
have the opportunity, I'm going to just

2010
02:41:31.879 --> 02:41:37.200
do this, give us a little
new theme. Perhaps we'll do how about

2011
02:41:37.239 --> 02:41:46.479
we go with what's coming in Oh, I don't know. Maybe how about

2012
02:41:46.520 --> 02:41:50.040
we look at what's coming in the
Supreme Court. For that, we need

2013
02:41:50.639 --> 02:41:56.440
a very important, very important theme. You know it, you gotta love

2014
02:41:56.520 --> 02:42:03.879
it. It's coming to us from
old Time TV from a creator named Earl

2015
02:42:03.959 --> 02:42:07.959
Stanley Gardner. I don't know if
we were related or not, but let's

2016
02:42:07.000 --> 02:42:13.159
hear from you know it. It's
time for the Perry Mason theme. Oh

2017
02:42:13.479 --> 02:42:46.079
my, yes, okay, Well, I want to give you a quick

2018
02:42:46.159 --> 02:42:52.360
recap. And also, since their
work for the Media Research Center MRCTV,

2019
02:42:52.639 --> 02:42:56.040
and of course they try to cover
left wing bias, I'll also be able

2020
02:42:56.079 --> 02:43:01.639
to give you a maybe a taste
of some of the things that the pop

2021
02:43:01.760 --> 02:43:07.399
media find to be the important stories
and some of the stories that they don't

2022
02:43:07.520 --> 02:43:13.879
think are that important. So let's
turn now to Newsweek, as they have

2023
02:43:15.040 --> 02:43:20.040
the Supreme Court's biggest twenty twenty four
decisions. You might notice that there's something

2024
02:43:20.120 --> 02:43:24.799
pretty darn big missing from this,
especially if you're familiar with the Great Barrington

2025
02:43:24.920 --> 02:43:31.399
Declaration or RFK Junior's Children's Health Defense. Here they have Sean O'Driscoll's piece.

2026
02:43:31.719 --> 02:43:37.799
The Supreme Court is to pronounce key
decisions on twenty twenty four. They're going

2027
02:43:37.879 --> 02:43:43.520
to pronounce them, ranging on issues
ranging from gun control to presidential immunity.

2028
02:43:43.959 --> 02:43:50.479
The justices will also decide otherwise known
as split infinity. Also will decide on

2029
02:43:50.559 --> 02:43:56.280
the court's first abortion case since they
overturn Roe v. Wade in twenty twenty

2030
02:43:56.319 --> 02:44:01.159
two. Here are some of the
key cases. The United States versus Rahimi,

2031
02:44:01.440 --> 02:44:05.360
The story of Zaki Rahimi pushes gun
rights to the very edge of what

2032
02:44:05.600 --> 02:44:11.840
courts will tolerate. The Justices are
to decide whether a federal law prohibiting people

2033
02:44:11.840 --> 02:44:16.639
who are under a domestic violence civil
restraining order from possessing firearms is constitutional under

2034
02:44:16.799 --> 02:44:22.920
the Second Amendment. Let me see
restriction, Person's out of jail? Oh

2035
02:44:22.040 --> 02:44:26.719
no answers, No thanks, Let's
go to lunch again. That was a

2036
02:44:26.799 --> 02:44:30.600
quick one. Yeah, and again
it goes towards the idea that if someone

2037
02:44:30.760 --> 02:44:33.959
is too dangerous to put out on
the streets, therefore you're going to restrict

2038
02:44:35.319 --> 02:44:39.239
and so called restrict his right to
keep and bear arms. Then why is

2039
02:44:39.319 --> 02:44:43.479
that person released to the streets.
Why is that person on the road.

2040
02:44:43.520 --> 02:44:48.479
Again, as Willie Nelson might say, maybe you want to keep that person

2041
02:44:48.559 --> 02:44:52.000
in prison. Simply put, if
the person is deemed safe enough to go

2042
02:44:52.079 --> 02:44:56.079
on the streets and not be inside
a prison, and shows you the mismanagement

2043
02:44:56.159 --> 02:45:00.440
system of the prison, then oh, and by the way, when prisoners

2044
02:45:00.559 --> 02:45:03.120
escaped the prison, is the state
held liable for what the prisoners might do

2045
02:45:03.319 --> 02:45:07.120
to people? No, if a
private system, say, let's say they're

2046
02:45:07.120 --> 02:45:11.559
supposed to be holding onto dogs and
a rabid dog gets out, they will

2047
02:45:11.639 --> 02:45:16.760
be held liable, right absolutely,
And so we have here Zaki Rahimi.

2048
02:45:18.399 --> 02:45:24.680
The Zaki Rahimi case also pertains to
Hunter Biden, and it's the nineteen sixty

2049
02:45:24.760 --> 02:45:30.559
eight so called Gun Control Act.
And he was, as they say,

2050
02:45:30.639 --> 02:45:35.680
an alleged small time Texas marijuana and
cocaine dealer. He was assaulting his girlfriend

2051
02:45:35.719 --> 02:45:39.799
when he fired a shot at an
onlooker. According to a Solicitor General petition

2052
02:45:39.920 --> 02:45:43.680
to the Supreme Court. His girlfriend
fled in the commotion, and he phoned

2053
02:45:43.680 --> 02:45:48.680
her and threatened to shoot her if
she told anyone about what happened. In

2054
02:45:48.760 --> 02:45:52.680
February twenty twenty, the Texas State
Court granted her a restraining order which prevented

2055
02:45:52.719 --> 02:45:58.440
him from owning a shotgun. Well, it didn't prevent him. It just

2056
02:45:58.520 --> 02:46:01.239
told him he shouldn't. It didn't
prevent him at all. Many people who

2057
02:46:01.239 --> 02:46:07.159
have had restraining orders against people,
women in particular, have gone to get

2058
02:46:07.200 --> 02:46:11.079
firearms, but the waiting period has
left them vulnerable. They couldn't get their

2059
02:46:11.120 --> 02:46:16.799
firearms legally, but the guys with
the restraining orders still got their firearms and

2060
02:46:16.840 --> 02:46:20.079
they killed them. This has happened. This is real. I wrote about

2061
02:46:20.120 --> 02:46:26.719
it in my book Free R Die. This really happened. So the idea

2062
02:46:26.799 --> 02:46:31.040
that they won't get their hands on
guns runs against the very idea that criminally

2063
02:46:31.079 --> 02:46:33.799
minded people will get firearms if it's
in their best interest as they see it.

2064
02:46:35.520 --> 02:46:39.079
That's why the black market exists.
That's why alcohol prohibition didn't work.

2065
02:46:39.399 --> 02:46:43.680
That's why drug prohibition doesn't work.
That's why prohibition against prostitution doesn't work.

2066
02:46:43.799 --> 02:46:48.239
It doesn't mean one has to promote
it. And support it and actually say

2067
02:46:48.280 --> 02:46:54.399
that it is moral in any way
to engage in prostitution. But I don't

2068
02:46:54.440 --> 02:46:56.159
have anything to do with it,
and I'm not going to tax my neighbor

2069
02:46:56.280 --> 02:47:01.200
to create a police force to stop
other people from engaging it because I'm not

2070
02:47:01.319 --> 02:47:03.079
part of their decision process. That's
up to them and their own morals and

2071
02:47:03.120 --> 02:47:07.120
their own souls. And if I'm
going to take somebody else's money, that

2072
02:47:07.280 --> 02:47:11.280
means I'm stealing. It doesn't matter
how many people say that it's okay and

2073
02:47:11.440 --> 02:47:20.360
give it their their their what would
you call that their standard? There they

2074
02:47:20.479 --> 02:47:24.920
strike their standard again on it of
okay, you know, they hit it

2075
02:47:24.000 --> 02:47:31.639
with their approved stamp of approval.
No, so the guy had this against

2076
02:47:31.719 --> 02:47:35.959
him. He had a restraining order, just like they had in the nineteen

2077
02:47:35.000 --> 02:47:39.959
sixty eight Gun Control Act. They
say drug users, not someone who might

2078
02:47:41.000 --> 02:47:43.600
be intoxicated, that someone might want
to disarm immediately on the spot, but

2079
02:47:43.719 --> 02:47:48.000
so called drug users. And that's
where Hunter Biden comes in. So there's

2080
02:47:48.120 --> 02:47:56.040
that story. Now we also got
another one, which is a fairly big

2081
02:47:56.120 --> 02:48:01.760
one, Cargill versus Garland. What
might this be? This case is one

2082
02:48:01.799 --> 02:48:05.440
that will decide how far a government
agency can extend its powers and could have

2083
02:48:05.600 --> 02:48:11.920
major implications for several branches of government, including the so called Chevron standard,

2084
02:48:11.319 --> 02:48:18.440
where they give deference to so called
regulatory agencies if various courts, especially beneath

2085
02:48:18.440 --> 02:48:22.360
the Supreme Court, find that the
agencies were working in what they could assume

2086
02:48:22.520 --> 02:48:28.200
to be their purview as granted by
Congress, even when they're unconstitutional agencies.

2087
02:48:28.280 --> 02:48:31.600
They never question the constitutionality of the
agencies. They just look at whether or

2088
02:48:31.639 --> 02:48:35.600
not, well, now that the
agency has been created, isn't operating under

2089
02:48:35.639 --> 02:48:39.840
what the Congress said it can do? Well? Here is a situation where

2090
02:48:39.840 --> 02:48:46.399
the ATF under the Chevron decision.
And similarly, they've got another case with

2091
02:48:46.840 --> 02:48:52.959
fishermen who are challenging the ability of
the federal government to force them to pay

2092
02:48:52.159 --> 02:48:56.719
for so called phish counters. That's
not this case, but it's very close

2093
02:48:56.760 --> 02:49:00.600
to it. And there's another case
that I'll talk about which has to do

2094
02:49:00.719 --> 02:49:05.639
with that. But in this case
we'll talk about the ATF. But in

2095
02:49:05.760 --> 02:49:09.159
the fishermen's case, which I won't
show you on the screen, they've got

2096
02:49:09.200 --> 02:49:15.319
a regulatory agency that already imposes fish
counters on their boats who sleep with them

2097
02:49:15.680 --> 02:49:20.639
housing of these of these state agents, much like housing of soldiers, which

2098
02:49:20.680 --> 02:49:24.200
is supposed to be prohibited by the
federal government. And the counters count the

2099
02:49:24.360 --> 02:49:28.959
fish. They literally count the fish. Originally, when I started to report

2100
02:49:28.000 --> 02:49:31.760
on this for MRCTV, I thought
it was a machine or something which would

2101
02:49:31.799 --> 02:49:37.479
be ridiculous. It's not a machine. It's people. Now the Feds want

2102
02:49:37.639 --> 02:49:41.319
the fishermen to pay the seven hundred
dollars to eight hundred dollars a day that

2103
02:49:41.479 --> 02:49:45.680
these guys get in salary from you, the taxpayers, even if you're not

2104
02:49:45.760 --> 02:49:50.360
eating fish. The whole system is
blatantly corrupt and unconstitutional. It's mafiaism.

2105
02:49:50.920 --> 02:49:56.440
So now here's this story about this
Supreme Court case, as they say here

2106
02:49:56.680 --> 02:50:03.239
Cargil versus Garland. This is a
case that will decide how far a government

2107
02:50:03.319 --> 02:50:09.159
agency can extend its powers and could
have major implications for several branches of government.

2108
02:50:09.680 --> 02:50:13.479
The Supreme Court will rule whether a
government agency can ban bump stocks,

2109
02:50:13.639 --> 02:50:18.440
which are attached to a semi automatic
to enable it to fire bullets more rapidly.

2110
02:50:18.559 --> 02:50:22.879
Well, semi automatic is just a
gun that on one pole of the

2111
02:50:22.920 --> 02:50:26.920
trigger it just fires. It's not
semi automatic. It's just one shot,

2112
02:50:28.399 --> 02:50:31.680
one pole, that's all. And
the bump stock allows the recoil to bring

2113
02:50:31.799 --> 02:50:35.760
that trigger back up against your finger
more rapidly so that it can fire almost

2114
02:50:35.840 --> 02:50:41.079
like an automatic. Okay, So
again the question is, thanks to Donald

2115
02:50:41.079 --> 02:50:46.399
Trump, whether or not a so
called regulatory agency can do this. But

2116
02:50:46.559 --> 02:50:50.840
there are other big ones that I
want to mention to you. So here

2117
02:50:50.079 --> 02:50:56.920
is this one. This one is
a big one that is in the appeals

2118
02:50:56.959 --> 02:51:01.440
court and I'm waiting to see if
this goes to this Supreme court. Court

2119
02:51:01.600 --> 02:51:09.000
revives doctor's lawsuits saying FDA overstepped its
authority with anti ivermectin campaign. A federal

2120
02:51:09.040 --> 02:51:13.200
appeals court in New Orleans has revived
a lawsuit by three doctors who say the

2121
02:51:13.200 --> 02:51:18.360
Food and Drug Administration overstepped its authority. Oh no, this is the one

2122
02:51:18.399 --> 02:51:20.200
that I'm talking about. This is
up in the Supreme Court. This is

2123
02:51:20.280 --> 02:51:26.040
the Missouri v. Biden and this
is the combined Missouri v. Biden RFK

2124
02:51:26.239 --> 02:51:33.399
Junior Children's Health Defense case, which
is Jay Batikaria and others from the Great

2125
02:51:33.440 --> 02:51:37.159
Barrington Declaration and other doctors who said
that this got in the way of their

2126
02:51:37.239 --> 02:51:43.559
profession. They lost jobs, and
they want compensation from the Feds, and

2127
02:51:43.680 --> 02:51:48.520
they have been harmed by the Feds. It's a very very important story,

2128
02:51:50.159 --> 02:51:56.600
and I hope that people will recognize
that the federal government engaged in censorship.

2129
02:51:56.799 --> 02:52:01.600
And I've got more on Missouri v. Biden over here. This is the

2130
02:52:01.680 --> 02:52:05.559
Supreme Court when it agreed to hear
it in October. This is from the

2131
02:52:05.719 --> 02:52:11.600
Voloch so called conspiracy at Reason.
And here is the order from merthyv.

2132
02:52:11.920 --> 02:52:16.559
Missouri. The application for stay is
granted, So what happens until the Supreme

2133
02:52:16.639 --> 02:52:22.239
Court comes out with its decision.
They granted the federal government, certain branches

2134
02:52:22.280 --> 02:52:26.559
of it, like the FDA,
the ability to continue to promulgate falsehoods and

2135
02:52:26.760 --> 02:52:31.719
lies on social media and to call
for social media to pull down various posts

2136
02:52:31.760 --> 02:52:35.440
about things like the JAB even though
we have been proven correct. We knew

2137
02:52:35.479 --> 02:52:39.559
we were correct the whole time,
and the government just continues to engage in

2138
02:52:39.680 --> 02:52:46.879
more propaganda. And Justice Alito,
with whom Justice Thomas and Justice Gorsuch join,

2139
02:52:46.479 --> 02:52:52.079
dissented from the grant of application for
a stay until the Court hears it

2140
02:52:52.239 --> 02:52:56.319
coming up this session and they will
decide on it. So right now the

2141
02:52:56.399 --> 02:53:01.959
stay is in place, stopping and
in junction against the federal government's so called

2142
02:53:03.120 --> 02:53:09.479
actions so the government can continue to
take its actions and writes just to alido.

2143
02:53:09.840 --> 02:53:15.479
This case concerns what two lower courts
found to be a coordinated campaign by

2144
02:53:15.680 --> 02:53:22.799
high level federal officials to suppress the
expression of disfavored views on important public issues.

2145
02:53:22.319 --> 02:53:28.520
To prevent the continuation of this campaign, these officials were enjoined from either

2146
02:53:28.639 --> 02:53:37.719
coercing social media companies to engage in
such censorship or cajoling them. Today,

2147
02:53:37.959 --> 02:53:41.440
however, a majority of the court, without undertaking a full review I paraphrase

2148
02:53:41.479 --> 02:53:48.600
their apologies a full review of the
record and without any explanation, suspends the

2149
02:53:48.840 --> 02:53:54.000
effect of that injunction until the court
completes its review of this case, an

2150
02:53:54.079 --> 02:53:58.879
event that may not occur until late
in the spring of next year. Our

2151
02:53:58.959 --> 02:54:03.520
new year government's censorship of private speech
is antithetical to our democratic form of government.

2152
02:54:03.600 --> 02:54:09.719
It's not democratic, guys, and
therefore today's decision is highly disturbing in

2153
02:54:09.840 --> 02:54:13.879
this case. This case began when
two states, Missouri and Louisiana, and

2154
02:54:13.000 --> 02:54:18.159
various private parties filed suit that would
be people at the Great Barrington Declaration and

2155
02:54:18.399 --> 02:54:24.399
see Children's Health Health Defense PhD filed
suit alleging that popular social media companies had

2156
02:54:24.440 --> 02:54:28.920
either blocked their use of the company's
platforms or had downgraded their posts on a

2157
02:54:30.000 --> 02:54:35.319
host of controversial subjects, including COVID
nineteen, lablee theory, pandemic lockdowns,

2158
02:54:35.440 --> 02:54:39.280
masks information and so on, and
the Hunter Biden laptop theory. Now,

2159
02:54:39.360 --> 02:54:43.680
the final bit I want to give
to you before we go. Everybody has

2160
02:54:43.760 --> 02:54:54.760
to do with the regulatory state,
and MRCTV just released this one. Typical,

2161
02:54:56.079 --> 02:55:03.200
typically tyrannical Biden administration slips out a
of regulations over the holidays, So

2162
02:55:03.360 --> 02:55:07.719
get ready, everybody. I'll discuss
this more tonight on Liberty Conspiracy at six

2163
02:55:07.840 --> 02:55:11.680
on Rumbel and Rockfin Little plug there, of course, as tyrants so often

2164
02:55:11.760 --> 02:55:16.200
do. On December twenty ninth,
the Biden administration quietly slid out a slow

2165
02:55:16.360 --> 02:55:22.920
news holiday hidden announcement of many more
regulations it is imposing on your market choices

2166
02:55:24.079 --> 02:55:28.120
of home appliances. And to add
insult to injury, it's all for their

2167
02:55:28.200 --> 02:55:37.079
religion like claim to be preventing Colliesque. That's the Hindu goddess Colliesque demigod anthropogenic

2168
02:55:37.200 --> 02:55:43.680
climate change from destroying the world.
It's a false religion backed by fake claims

2169
02:55:43.799 --> 02:55:50.000
of science and false claims of savings
that they're imposing on you. Merry Christmas,

2170
02:55:50.280 --> 02:55:54.719
Happy New Year. Indeed, as
American families gather for the holidays,

2171
02:55:54.840 --> 02:56:00.959
the Biden Administration of Energy DOE,
under slick smarmy, enriched by stock options

2172
02:56:01.040 --> 02:56:09.840
received from Palsy corporations, DOE head
Jennifer Granholm and her cult released the Song

2173
02:56:09.280 --> 02:56:13.959
of Khalie. Nick Pope reports that's
a reference to the Dan Simmons novel By

2174
02:56:15.000 --> 02:56:18.159
the way. Nick Pope reports on
it for Daily Caller. The Department of

2175
02:56:18.319 --> 02:56:26.520
Energy DOE finalized or proposed a bevy
of regulatory actions cracking down on numerous appliances

2176
02:56:26.680 --> 02:56:30.559
on Friday. So it's like I
said, we haven't closed the book for

2177
02:56:30.760 --> 02:56:35.559
just writing new chapters in the ongoing
book of the Fight for Freedom. The

2178
02:56:35.719 --> 02:56:41.719
DOE proposed new rules designed to promote
so called energy efficient commercial fans and blowers,

2179
02:56:41.959 --> 02:56:50.159
and also finalized energy efficiency standards for
refrigerators and freezers, the agency announced

2180
02:56:50.200 --> 02:56:54.159
on Friday. The regulatory actions are
the latest in a string of moves by

2181
02:56:54.200 --> 02:57:01.840
the Biden administration intended to phase out
a host of fossil fuel powered appliances and

2182
02:57:01.000 --> 02:57:07.600
replace them on the market with more
energy efficients so called and often electric equivalents.

2183
02:57:09.040 --> 02:57:13.920
End quote. I suspect that you
too might be wondering where their vaunted

2184
02:57:13.000 --> 02:57:20.600
US Constitution hides the so called authority
for the Feds to create a DOE let

2185
02:57:20.639 --> 02:57:26.319
alone tell private makers of appliances what
they can and cannot offer you to freely

2186
02:57:26.440 --> 02:57:31.000
purchase or leave on the showroom floor. Perhaps you also might be scratching your

2187
02:57:31.040 --> 02:57:37.719
head over the easy way elitist bureaucrats
and politicians claim to define for us what

2188
02:57:39.079 --> 02:57:43.920
is efficient. Well, you'd better
extend the sentiment to silent of silent night

2189
02:57:45.479 --> 02:57:50.360
to your potential protestations about those matters, because, of course, the mandates

2190
02:57:50.440 --> 02:57:54.399
are for your own good, so
be silent. They're for your own good

2191
02:57:54.520 --> 02:58:00.319
to stop their magic monster of anthropogenic
climate change. And if you should question

2192
02:58:00.719 --> 02:58:05.360
either their mandates or their faulty claims
of science, you are an apostate to

2193
02:58:05.520 --> 02:58:09.120
the new religion. And if you
want an idea of what is targeted,

2194
02:58:09.319 --> 02:58:13.760
even as you see how efficient the
tax fed writers of DOE are, here

2195
02:58:15.000 --> 02:58:22.360
is the subhead of their announcement.
Quote DOE proposes new rule for energy efficient

2196
02:58:22.440 --> 02:58:31.719
commercial fans and blowers and finalizers refrigerator
and freezer standards with strong industry and stakeholder

2197
02:58:31.959 --> 02:58:43.280
support bolstering Biden Harris administration efforts to
strengthen outdated efficiency standards to save Americans approximately

2198
02:58:43.600 --> 02:58:48.479
one trillion dollars over thirty years.
And I wrote and now that she has

2199
02:58:48.639 --> 02:58:54.159
pocketed almost two million dollars in stock
options given to her by an electric vehicle

2200
02:58:54.280 --> 02:59:00.879
bus company that she helped get fed
money when she was governor of Michigan.

2201
02:59:01.239 --> 02:59:05.719
That company just filed for bankruptcy just
after she got to sell her stock.

2202
02:59:05.200 --> 02:59:11.559
DOE head Jennifer grand Holme has some
holiday cheer to force on you in all

2203
02:59:11.639 --> 02:59:18.399
its propagandistic glory quote. Today's announcement
is a testament to the Biden Harris Administration's

2204
02:59:18.479 --> 02:59:26.920
commitment to lowering utility costs for working
families, which is helping to simultaneously strengthen

2205
02:59:26.319 --> 02:59:33.879
energy independence and combat the climate crisis. Secretary of Energy Jennifer grant Home said

2206
02:59:33.000 --> 02:59:39.799
of her agency's actions, DOE will
continue to move quickly in twenty twenty four,

2207
02:59:39.159 --> 02:59:48.520
together with industry partners and stakeholders to
update and strengthen outdated energy efficiency standards,

2208
02:59:48.920 --> 02:59:54.879
which is critical to innovation, more
consumer options and healthier communities. And

2209
02:59:56.000 --> 03:00:00.760
so folks, as we start twenty
twenty four, I'll leave you with this

2210
03:00:01.319 --> 03:00:07.360
little comment from the MRCTV piece to
you to her, just some items for

2211
03:00:07.520 --> 03:00:16.840
us to remember. Curiously, all
her cozy fascist terms like partners and stakeholders

2212
03:00:16.159 --> 03:00:26.440
and standards are warmed over populist problem
and we've got working families, consumer options

2213
03:00:26.879 --> 03:00:33.760
and healthier communities. Those are under
this paradigm, defined and controlled by the

2214
03:00:33.879 --> 03:00:41.159
government, and they represent favoritism and
force. The government uses terms such as

2215
03:00:41.440 --> 03:00:50.959
regulation and rule and standards as replacements
for the term state threats and to cloud

2216
03:00:52.000 --> 03:00:56.840
their moves to push around makers,
sellers, and buyers who have their own

2217
03:00:56.959 --> 03:01:01.719
goals and their own calculations about what
is of efficient and about their own freedom

2218
03:01:01.760 --> 03:01:07.280
to be left the heck alone.
They employed this rhetoric so regardless of ethics,

2219
03:01:07.399 --> 03:01:11.840
regardless of economics, being fueled by
the freedom of consumers and sellers to

2220
03:01:11.920 --> 03:01:18.600
show their preferences and inspire suppliers to
keep reducing costs and improving their products in

2221
03:01:18.760 --> 03:01:22.680
order to beat other suppliers. Granting
Grand Holme seems to think she knows best

2222
03:01:24.360 --> 03:01:31.360
rather than choice. She imposes mandates
and she makes threats. Well, everywan,

2223
03:01:31.440 --> 03:01:35.200
thank you so much for joining me. I've had a great time filling

2224
