Using free speech to free minds. You are listening to the David Knight Show.
As the clock strikes thirteen. Here on Airstrip one, we gather for
the David Knight Show on December twenty sixth, twenty twenty three, year of
our Lord. I'm Gardner Goldsmith filling in for Knight and today in the program
Strategic Oil concerns in the Middle East, King Charles the Third King of the
Environment and is the United States sleepwalking into blackouts? That plus your comments at
Rockman and Rumble and also on Twitter slash x, feel free to join us
as we as we welcome this day after Christmas. Nice to have you here,
everyone, and it's nice to be here filling in for David. I'm
Gardner Goldsmith, coming out of the offices where I occasionally visit and often send
my stories for MRCTV, and of course you might be familiar with my work
at mrctv dot org, the Media Research Center now in its thirty seventh year
of fighting the left wing bias in media and in political reporting, and we've
got a lot to discuss today. I want to thank everybody at MRCTV for
granting me the opportunity to join you here, and moreover, I want to
thank David Knight and the entire Night family and wish them a blessed, blessed
year as well as a blessed year to you for a wonderful twenty twenty three
and twenty twenty four coming up. I hope it is absolutely beautiful for all
of you and your family. I hope you had a terrific Christmas, absolutely
beautiful time here in southern New Hampshire where I am the live free or Die
state, where irony of ironies the state penitentiary inmates make the license plates that
says live for your die on every one of those. It's going to be
a great day today, and it's going to be very interesting because there's breaking
news out of the Middle East, just trying to find out what the situation
could be down there, whether or not Iran might be getting pulled more into
this battle between Israel and the Hamas fighters in Gaza. Of course, Israel
doesn't really seem to be able to distinguish between the Hamas fighters and the civilians.
And there's more to talk about on that day after Christmas. Unfortunately,
for what's happening there in the Holy Land, Bethlehem in particular. So we'll
talk about that, and I'll get your thoughts as to whether or not we
can really trust much of the information we're getting from any of the mainstream sources.
And I don't even call them mainstream sources anymore. I just call them
just arms of the deep state in many cases, and whether or not we
can trust some of the arms of the alternative media. We'll get your thoughts
on that as well as we check out what's happening today on The David Knight
Show. Please remember, if you get the opportunity, David Knight's website is
a great resource, and if you go to the Davidnightshow dot com you can
find out all of the streaming sources there. You might be watching on Rumble,
you might be watching on Rock Fann, you might be watching us on
d Live. And hello, thank you for welcoming welcoming me as the guest
host today on the David Knight Show. What's in store? Well, what
is in store today looks like this. Here's our roundup four this day after
Christmas. First, we'll be looking at the kingly collectivist corruption of Christ the
King. Yeah, we are talking blasphemy. Yesterday the King of England,
King Choles, Yes, pit pitp cheerio and all that are the British sort
of lingo. Yes, King Charles, the third collectivism, Yes, yes,
oh, that are the British collectivist lingo. He gave his Christmas statement
yesterday and you will not believe what was hiding inside that. I'm actually you
probably are well aware. If you are a viewer and a regular contributor to
the David Knight program in Chat, you're probably very well aware of things you
picked up. We'll compare notes. We'll look at number two as well,
how the climate cult's death agenda today follows decades of government encroachment of travel rights.
Yes, very very interesting stories that all tie together. Right after we
look at that kingly collectivist corruption of Christ the King, then our third story
will be gun rights and Bruin. The Bruin decision coming up to almost two
years old now, and we're looking at oil and water. Why many of
the people who were very excited about the Bruin decision justifiably work cited for a
slight change, but might have jumped the gun a little bit. I'll give
you an example of one of the stories coming out of Massachusetts and a court
decision there that gives us an indication that, of course the fight continues,
the fight for your right to defend yourself against the state. Then we're going
to be discussing in jazz parlance. As you see on the screen, the
speech police and fascist corporate cronies seem to dig each other. I mentioned on
my Liberty Conspiracy Program, which, by the way, I should mention I
also host the Liberty Conspiracy Program every Monday through Friday, streaming at Rockvin and
Rumble and my Twitter feed which is at guard Goldsmith And if you're just listening
in audio, that's gar D Goldsmith short for Gardner Goldsmith g r D Neer,
which is named after one of the families that came over on the Mayflower.
And if you're from the Boston area, you might be familiar with Isabella
Stuart Gardner. She married into the Gardner family, the Gardner family also not
to like puff up the Garden family, but kind of an interesting little facet
there. They also founded as they were one of the five families that left
the Plymouth Plantation and founded Salem. And so I can't be blamed for the
Salem witch trials. Actually which actually didn't happen in Salem proper. They actually
happen in North Salem, which is sort of Peaboddy now. But the Isabelle
Stewart Garden Museum, if you ever get a chance to visit Boston, that
is a very interesting place. And I'll tell you more about that after we
get into our first BLUs, first blush on the news, But if you
do want to follow me, it's at guard Goldsmith Jard Goldsmith, And of
course you can find my work at MRCTV and watch or listen to Liberty Conspiracy
on that at Guard Goldsmith, on Twitter, slash x and also on Rockbann
and Rumble, and we would be happy to have you there. We start
at six o'clock Monday through Friday and usually run for at least ninety minutes,
and I don't think I've done anything shorter than ninety minutes. But last night
was the first time I went for about forty five minutes, maybe fifty,
just to say hello to everybody at Christmas time, and I played some clips
of Andrea Bcelli singing from his holiday concert that we got to see as a
little something to say, always remember you were never alone, because the Lord
created you and is there for you. So thanks so much everybody for being
such good, kindred spirits. Now let's take the opportunity to go to the
United Kingdom, a kingdom of a different sort, a kingdom of what I
think is corruption. Let's hear some of that royal music. Oh, the
color, the pageantry, the grandeur, the splendor of King Charles at his
coronation. All I can think of is Monty Python. He's got the magic
scepter, le's got the big gold ball, and that hat just seems a
little too heavy for him. Boris Johnson, there doesn't bow until it's too
late. He's a little slow sometimes, that Boris Johnson. How could you
do? And there's King Charles walking very slowly and looking quite confused. Actually,
okay, well that was the king being sworn in, and almost two
years ago as well. He seemed to want to adopt the mantle. Yes,
pun intended of being the king of the world, not even having to
ride the Titanic. Yes, he issued the Terra Carta, not the Magna
Carta, but the Terra Carta in Athens. Yes, it was the the
new rules for the Earth. Of course, he was speaking for nature and
saying that we all had to change our lives, and of course that means
government making us change our lives for the good of the planet. And who
would speak for the planet? Yes, another fallible human being named King Charles.
If you see the reductio ad absurdum to that, I agree with you,
and welcome to the logic class that Charles seems to have missed. Yes,
it is a little unusual to see a human being claiming that he can
speak for the Earth, as opposed to any other human being who says that
he or she can speak for the Earth. But that is the yes mantle
that King Charles has adopted. And so yesterday King Charles brought it unto himself
to not only issue his magna carta for the entire planet. And of course
it all has to do with climate change. The mcguffin and I'll show you
a little something later. I got my mcguffin shirt from the David Knight store
and I can't wait to show it to you. It's really great. And
that's Scottish by the way. So the Scots aren't particular fans of the king.
They've been talking about breaking off for quite a while and Sean Connery was
one of the big outspoken people about that. He was very positive for getting
Scottish independence once more. Go with the blue and the orange, my friends,
and there are no tigers in the Scottish Islands. But I'm quite fascinated
to see how hard King Charles is pushing this. After flying in his private
jet to COP twenty eight and also being part of COP twenty six where they
had their electric cars in Scotland and they had to charge their electric cars using
diesel generators. Not only do they manifest fraudulent behavior that shows us that they
really are not abiding by the rules that they want to apply on all of
us. With usterity in our lives, changing how we heat our homes,
trying to get everyone connected to an electric grid which can then be monitored and
of course attenuated based on government policies, and beyond the government policies, we
can't actually address this to whether it is actually secure for us, whether it
will be there when we need it, or anything like that. They want
to apply all those things in a sort of neo feudal way where they will
be the feudal lords, and King Charles apparently thinks that he's got the royal
blood in him to lead the way. So he issued the Terra Carta in
the beautiful pagan style of the Greeks, and said that the earth must be
protected. He would be the one to protect it. Well, yesterday it
looked like maybe he might actually give a nod at least to the Anglican Church
of England. But given the fact that the Anglican Church is seen as sort
of something of a blaspheme for many Catholics, because of course Old Henry wanted
to get some divorces. Well, Charles offered this statement. You can see
on the screen if you're just listening. I've called up the Twitter feed of
gb News gb News Positives and Negatives. I don't like the way they treated
Calvin Robinson. I don't like the way they treated Lawrence Fox. But they
still get some good information out, just like you know Fox News does.
Once a year, maybe CNN will have something crop up, and you know,
an occasional network will do something. GBN scores a little higher on that
for me anyway, but still, you know, it's not like the news
resources I can find by going to Ranting Lee or going to MRCTV or checking
out Tony Rdeburn's show or anything like that. But he spoke yesterday for Christmas,
and I I want you to see his Christmas message. We're gonna jump
past that wonderful pageantry in the music and go to the King looking very stiff
and artificial in his blue suit, with his hand on the back of a
chair, probably thinking I wish I could sit down for this, as he
starts to use Christianity for his government collectivist control grid that he wants. Yeah,
folks, it's the electric breakdance Boogoloo, King Charles the third the sequel.
Here we go. Yeah, and yes, I know what you're thinking.
You're saying, how much energy did this take to get this wonderful,
great high altitude shot a bucking A palace? How much energy does the palace
use? Many of the festivals of the great religions of the world are celebrated
with a special meal, a chance for family and friends to come together across
generations, the act of sharing food adding to conviviality and togetherness. All right,
so already we've got him. On Christmas Day, which, yes we
will mention to the Pagans, is a day applied to a Pagan holiday.
The Druids are probably up in arms at mean right now. So yes,
I will mention, yes, the Christian holiday was applied to this. No
one is exactly sure when Christ was born, but already we have him either
being cosmopolitan and trying to be as accepting of every religion as possible on this
Christmas Day yesterday, or we have him injecting something that perhaps is a bit
of an insult to Christians because he actually is watched this going to start to
use the fact that Christ, the Lord God created the world as a reason
to allow for global collectivist government control of everything you do, from your food
to your energy, to the heating of your home, to how you travel.
And in addition to that, he's going to use it as an argument
for government taking tax money from people to fund the moves of migrants and the
housing of migrants in particularly in the United Kingdom, but also anywhere in the
world. And you can see right at the start here he's mentioning food.
The food is one of the flagstones that he's put down, one of the
stepping stones he's putting down for his narrative for this sort of collectivist argument that
he's going to lay out. It's the first hint that he's going to be
talking about global scarcity, which of course is actually being caused by government impediments
on the free market. Government impediments on things like nitrogen fertilizer and energy to
be able to transport the seeds and the food after the food has been grown
or slaughtered. This is all government created if the market is allowed to function.
And will discuss this in a little while in the way that an old
Scotsman, Adam Smith mentioned in seventeen seventy six, by allowing the invisible hand,
whether people look at it as human interaction and self interest, having to
serve a customer and be honest to be able to continue their work, and
the bad people being flushed out of that system, and the good ones rising
to the four rather than the political mercantilist fascist system of funding weapons manufacturers and
funding all sorts of green climate change organizations. All of those things are the
types of things that evidently this man seems to like. So he's laid the
path already and will continue with the king. For some faith will be uppermost
in their hearts. For others it will be the joy of fellowship and the
giving of presents, it is also a time when we remember those who are
no longer with us, and think also of those whose work of caring for
others continues even on this special day. This care and compassion we show to
others is one of the themes of the Christmas story, especially when Mary and
Joseph were offered shelter the need by strangers as they waited for Jesus to be
born. With this post right there, right there, yes, of course,
as they sheltered in a place where they were accepted in their hour of
need, that's the signal for the migrant explosion. That, of course lays
out a very nice image, but hides the reality of the political machinations clearly
behind, for example, replacement immigration policies that have been openly stated by deep
state members, by One World people, by people associated with Klaus Schwab and
King Charles, and also overlooks the idea the very effrontery of government officials taking
money from the local people who I don't get subsidized when I want to move
to you. No. And by the way, I am a Christian,
anarchist, a voluntarist, so I don't believe that political borders that are established
by the state by forcing my neighbor to pay for them actually represent any sort
of a border that my neighbor might want, because all the neighbors might have
different opinions, and those opinions could change our to our day to day.
So I'm not in favor of government running borders. I'm in favor of private
property, ancient traditions of common law, and even going back to what was
done in Exodus with tribes. I like what the Brehon law system did in
ancient Ireland. I like what the Vikings did with their Goddard system, a
non compulsory voluntary system that they had in Iceland where they had different temples for
adjudication of disputes. In Ireland they went tribally. It was all done by
reputation. And I don't like the idea of taking money from people in order
to facilitate my move is where I want to go? Do you? I
didn't find that somewhere in the false social contract that they foist on all of
us and tell us is for real. Oh maybe that's part of the reason.
Maybe it's because they tell you that they're giving you a contract that you
never signed, that you actually signed this contract to be run by government.
How does that exactly work? Logically? My heart has been warned by countless
examples of the imaginative ways in which people are caring for one another, going
the extra mile to help those around them, simply because they know it is
the right thing to do at work and at home, within and across communities.
My wife and I were delighted when hundreds of reputatives of that selfless army
of people volunteers who serve their communities in so many ways and with such distinction,
were able to join us in Westminster abby for the coronation earlier this year.
They are an essential backbone of our society. Their presence meant so much
to us both and emphasize the meaning of coronation itself, above all, a
call to all of us to serve one another, to love and care for
all. Serve is also live again again. So he mixes volunteers. And
who knows how many of those people actually were real volunteers. What percentage of
them in Westminster Abbey were real volunteers, how many of them are actually working
for nonprofit NGOs that get subsidized by government. We don't know, But let's
give them an out and say yeah, there were a large percentage of them.
You don't mix real volunteers with the spirit of what you're trying to put
forward, which is collectivist control, seizure of money, and again driving the
sentiment that if you don't accept this collectivist concept of the migrants being moved in
based off your neighbor's dying, that somehow you are an evil person. It's
at the heart of the Christmas story, the birth of Jesus, who came
to serve the whole world, showing us, by his own example, how
to love our neighbor as ourselves. Throughout the year, my family had witnessed
how people of all ages are making a difference to their communities. This is
all the more important at a time of real hardship for many, when we
need to build on existing ways to support others less fortunate than ourselves, because
out of God's providence, we are blessed with much, and it is incumbent
on us to use this wisely. However, service to others is but one
way of honoring the whole of creation, which after all, is a manifestation
of the device. This is a belief shared by all religions. To care
for this creation is a responsibility owned by people of all faiths and of none.
We care for the earth for the sake of our children's children. During
my lifetime, I've been so pleased to see a growing awareness of how we
must protect the earth and our natural world as the one home which we all
share. I find great inspiration now from the way so many people recognize this,
as does the Christmas story, which tells us that angels brought the message
of hope first to shepherds. These were people who lived simply amongst others of
God's creatures. Those close to nature were privileged that night, and at a
time of increasingly tragic conflict around the world, I pray that we can also
do all in our power to protect each each other the words of Jesus.
See all right, let's pause it right there and just consider something. Has
anyone seen the protesters outside one or two or all of the weapons manufacturing plants
that build weapons for Israel in Great Britain and what the police have done to
them. I don't think King Charles wants to talk about that as he talks
about peace on Earth and this blasphemous way that he brings in the stories of
the shepherds again hiding the fact that you will be the sheep. You will
be the sheep in his globalist climate change mcguffin anthropogenic climate change nonsense, driven
grab for more power. And we see images of him visiting African nations formerly
perhaps under the British or the Dutch control, and you think about how they
want to continue their colonization through corporatism and mercantilism otherwise known as fascism. This
is what we're seeing from King Charles. And when we look at the policies
of this man and how many hundreds of millions of dollars he and his family
receive every year in addition to their net worth, it is quite a rich
dish to have to suck down that sort of eggnog on Christmas as he talks
about caring for the poor and wants to institute policies that will make them poorer,
that will not allow the productive capacity of the market. And we'll discuss
this again referring to Adam Smith, and interestingly enough tying in It's a wonderful
life with the great spirit of David Knight on this David Knight Show together in
opposition to the very sort of command and control, centralized authority that King Charles
right there represents be more than ever relevant due to others as you would have
them do to you. Such values are universal, drawing together our Abrahamic family
of religions and other belief systems across the Commonwealth and wider world. They remind
us to imagine ourselves in the shoes of our neighbors, and to seek their
good as we would our own. So on this Christmas Day, my heart
and my thanks go to all who are serving one another, all who are
caring for our common home. I think we can leave it there. With
the common home, I think we understand and we can go back to that.
We'll check in at Rockman and rumble Chat. Thank you for joining us
on the David Night Show on Gardner Goldsmith filling in. And yes, I
know I don't have as much hair as King Charles. I'm not quite as
seasoned as King Charles. I'm not as learned as King Charles. But I
think I have a few ideas that maybe King Charles might want to consider.
I don't want to sound too assumptive, but since he seems to be quite
assumptive himself and telling us that we should care for our neighbor at the same
time that he doesn't acknowledge that the greatest ability to leverage extra time to be
able to engage in charity work. The greatest power that man can find to
be able to engage in charity is if he can lighten or she can lighten
the load of what what is required for his or her life just to survive.
And the biggest driver to allow for that is the free market. Evidently,
being a monarch, King Charles doesn't seem to like that concept. So
okay, well, King, let's take a quick look at some of the
ideas that have come around thanks to King Charles. As I wrote on Twitter,
I said, the King misrepresents the words of Christ and the logic of
godly creation into bulwarks for an anti rights government worship credo that stands completely opposed
to Christian principles and leaves government in charge of all pretending to be for the
people and earth. So let's take a look, everybody at what his kinds
of ideas have wrought, at least on the environmental and economic fronts. When
we look at the climate change mcguffin, remember the mcguffin T shirt at the
David Knight Store at the d Davidnightshow dot com. And for that, let's
get a little theme, some nice smooth music for your morning or afternoon or
night, wherever you might be and whatever time zone you call home. Let's
hear from our friends. And I often do this on my show as a
theme for the climate change, anthropomorphic climate change called cool in the Gang.
But oh it's too hot, I gotta run for shelter, gotta run,
bussy, it's too hot, you gotta coolnt anchor. But as we have
made so I love that guitar, great guitar, As I mentioned. This
is from Don Kirshner's Rock Concert. Don Kirshner one of the people who helped
put together so many of the great musicians who wrote so many of the wonderful
Monkeys tunes, and also was sort of the bane of existence for the Monkeys
for quite a while because he wouldn't free up many of them to do their
own thing. For example, Mike Nesmyth wrote a different drum and that was
a song he wanted to introduce into the Monkeys lineup of tunes and record.
For one of the records, Don Kirshner would have nothing of it. So
Mike Nesmuth sold it to Lynda Ronstadt and the song went to like number three
or number one, and Mike went up to Donn and said, hey,
hey, don thanks Ah. Yes, central authorities commanding everything. It's wonderful,
isn't it. Yes. Indeed, maybe he was the climate change activist
of music, that Don Kirshner. But let's take a look at what would
happen if someone were to institute King Charles's ideas. So here's a little headline
for you that originally was published in the Telegraph. It was an op ed
that for a while was behind their paywall. The Telegraph's Neil Record writes,
what could happen if we just stopped oil? Six billion people might die?
And this is not inflammatory. There are some of the people in England,
of course, they just stop oil, people who seem to love investing in
gorilla glue, which of course requires a lot of energy to get to the
temperatures to create the glue. And you know, over in Germany, some
of those highly intelligent so called doctors glued themselves to the floor of a Volkswagen
slash Porsche display floor and they shut off the lights and left them there as
the heat went off for the night, and those guys weren't able to get
to the bathroom. It's always really smart to glue yourself to something, particularly
a collectivist ideology that's going nowhere. But let's hit this, he writes.
Many of us has been have been exasperated by the antics of just stop oil
protesters. Believe that these are well meaning and they are committed to their cause,
and I'm sure that they think that they are trying to save the planet
in the best way they can think of, gain publicity, get people talking,
and influence politicians. Yes, collective is one size has got to fit
all, even when your use of energy is not bringing direct harm to another
person, and no one's ever brought you to court for harming them in a
torte way. The way that the British commoners used to understand. If you
said that you had been harmed by someone, say burning a fire in their
land, and it came over and hit your land, then you could bring
someone to court and say I've been harmed. I'm a real person and I
want just compensation. I want to go in front of one of our local
juries. That was the way that it was done and it was supposed to
be small areas of control people who knew each other, not these large areas
control. That of course the one worlders want, because they'll control everything.
Continuing with the original, which was originally published on let Me See was six
days ago by mister Record. He is the Kneal of record. But what
would happen if we literally just stopped oil tomorrow and did without the natural resources
on which the world, its economies and population depend. The answer, most
likely six billion people would die within a year. I am going to assume
the oil in just stop oil means fossil fuels, So oil, gas and
coal. Yes, the cheap, plentiful, easy to move, easy to
store things that don't lose their energy capacity when you store them, and don't
require very poor third world people having to dig in very dangerous minds to dig
up the toxic chemicals that will be shipped around the world, and then of
course we'll have to be stored in very toxic landfills. I'm also going to
assume, he writes, that we have today's technological knowledge infrastructure, So we're
talking about stopping fossil fuels now, not at some unspecified time in the future.
Day one, no more mining of coal, the world's oil wells,
shut down, the world's gas fields. Likewise, the first to feel the
change would be gas users. Gas stocks held above ground are typically not that
high, so the UK would quite quickly say in ten or fifteen days have
to turn off its gas distribution system as it would be unable to maintain pressure.
And that's the sort of thing that just about a year ago they were
leaning towards doing, when they were going to shut down the oil fields in
the North Sea. But luckily some of the Scottish interests and some of the
more sensible people in the British Parliament said, oh no, that would be
really dumb. That already coming after the Prime Minister at that time, Boris
Johnson, said expect a winter of austerity similar to World War two. Why
because you were going to impose it on people, Boris, while of course
you partied in Number ten Downing Street. This would mean in turn that the
domestic supply would shut down. Two gas would stop flowing in some twenty one
million households, seventy four percent of the population would no longer have heating,
hot water and cooking facilities, and their panic people might turn to electricity for
their cooking and heating. But wait a the UK electricity grid relies on natural
gas as its buffer energy source. Every day demand varies according to consumer demand
and other main energy and the other main energy supplier, renewables are highly variable
and can only power the grid when gas is picking up the line's share of
the gap between their output and consumer demand. And of course in bad weather,
they've got to rely on carbon based fuels to make sure that those systems
are maintained not frozen, just as the people in Texas so the amount.
So the moment that the main gas distribution system is deepize, the grid balancing
system fails and power cuts ensue. Ah, that's awesome. Now let's skip
to day twenty five. Since yesterday was the twenty fifth of December, day
twenty five, I'm probably being generous with the timing here, but diesel and
petrol are likely to have run out by day twenty five. This means that
food distribution would fail and so the population, most of which are entirely dependent
on bought food, begin to starve day fifty In the urban world, many
people would be near death from starvation in the fifty days since the ending of
fossil fuel supplies, law and order would have broken down, and I suspect
that mass conflict and slaughter would have taken place with the increasingly desperate search of
the means of survival. Now, this is just one man's opinion. Other
people sitting around the living room might speculate in other ways. Doesn't mean that
he has any more insight than anyone else. Day one hundred, just three
months or so, since the world just stopped oil sounds like a Larry Nivin
novel. Here, my guess is that around half of the world's population would
be dead. Oh okay, well, King Charles, Merry Christmas to you
too. And in the spirit of that, let's look at one of your
friends who is no longer around but seem to not care about half a million
people getting slaughtered by government policies. We have heard that half a million children
have died. I mean, that's more children than died in Hiroshima. And
you know, is the price worth it? I think this is a very
hard choice, but the price, we think the price is worth it.
Oh okay, well, that's just classic, classic stuff from Mattel and Albright,
of course, And that was when half a million were estimated to have
died as many people noted with the bin laden letters. Just about five years
later, the numbers seemed to have doubled, but that was due to an
embargo of Iraq similar to the embargo that FDR imposed on Japan prior to the
Japanese responding by attacking Pearl Harbor, an attack about which Roosevelt clearly clearly knew.
And of course, because Roosevelt was so concerned about the Sino Japanese War,
he had to make sure that he took the side of China and something
that really had nothing to do with the United States. Now, let's take
a look at another part of what could happen, not just the food supply
chain, but other types of things, the supply of information and privacy.
Right now, the machinations as we are a week out of the COP twenty
eight meeting, and air conditioned Dubai. And by the way, the last
one that they had in the desert last year was air conditioned as well.
And not only was it air condition they had air conditioned passages that they constructed
between buildings and the hotel complex. That's awesome, isn't it. And they
took photographs with bicycles that they never used. So here is one aspect of
something I want to make sure I remind you about which I want to make
sure I reminds you here in the David Night Show. If you go to
the you know, the little Gardner Goldsmith section at MRCTV, you'll see this
piece. This is down the list a little bit. Now. I've got
another new one that just came out, and I'll tell you about that later
in the show. With big thanks to the MRCTV team. Editor Eric Shiner
emailed me this morning. That's senior editor Eric Shiner, director of MRCTV,
and I've got another one. I've I've got three more that will be coming
out today and tomorrow as the team gets back together to work today over at
MRCTV. Here is something that I wrote last week, climate surveillance EPA Gore
working with little known interests to spy on your emissions. Now, if you
watch my Liberty Conspiracy show, I discussed this last week when the story came
out, but I would like to introduce it to you here at the David
Night Program. Of course, much larger audience for David's show, and please
spread the word about the show and help expand the audience for David's show.
What wonderful people just not only for the sake of how wonderful they are,
but just not only their integrity and their graciousness, but the information and the
wisdom that David puts into every day is just It is unmatched by any human
being I've ever met. I don't know how to describe it, but here
is my attempt to add some information so that maybe some alarm bells will go
off on this Christmas holiday. Since December fifteenth mark the two hundred and thirty
second anniversary of the adoption of the US Bill of Rights, and December sixteenth
was the two hundred and fiftieth the Boston Tea Party, perhaps it's time to
assess the status of our natural rights, especially folks, when we consider where
they stand against the mindset organized through government means of people like King Charles.
And I want to stay focused on what he said and the way that he
twisted the Bible to now point towards collectivism, mandated collectivism, non voluntary,
not you using your free will? Is it? In other words, do
we live in the purported land of the free? Or are we trapped in
the Land of the Lost, and by the way, David Niven actually the
science fiction writer. He worked on some of those Land in the Lost episodes.
David Gerald, creator of Trouble with Tribles and a science fiction author himself,
was story editor on that show. They had some pretty high concept science
fiction in there. Reference to recent US state and local government action tilts,
the scales far far to the side of the lost rights. As I mentioned,
in just the last half decade, we've seen each level of government engage
in lockdowns, infringe on the rights of landlords, block the fulfillment of private
contract, censor lie play favorites with numerous interests in numerous industries, turn our
tax cash into weaponry and welfare showered on foreign nations, pump false narratives about
concerned parents being potential domestic terror threats whom the FEDS can surveil, whom holding
prisoners for more than two years without trials while withholding likely exculpatory evidence from those
whom the FEDS did grind through their insane judicial mill. Force US to house
soldiers in new US military bases all around the world. Reauthorize the so called
National Defense Authorization Act NDAA of an insultingly unconstitutional Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act Section seven
zero two two, allowing secret spying and much more. Hi, have you
ever heard of a public warrant in your life? Washington, d C.
The contrast between Founding era America and contemporary America is so stark one might speculate
that it had been derived from the plot of a dystopian novel. But there
is much more, in fact hiding behind those stark, brazen usurpations of our
rights. The FEDS have been using indirect means to skirt the explicit rules of
the Bill of Rights, and they have been employing typical fear mongering narratives to
promote their so called good work with the third parties under the guise of national
security. And by the way, we will revisit Madeline Albright's mindset in a
little while as we look at what happened in Bethlehem, what's happening in Ukraine,
and what's happening in Gaza under the guise of national security. And after
being exposed directly collecting without public warrants from judges the digital communications of innumerable Americans,
the FEDS changed TAC and began paying digital communications corporations as if they were
subcontractors to hand them the information that the Fourth Amendment is supposed to stop government
from getting without warrants. So, of course, when we saw James Clapper
facing Ron Wyden just about a few days before the Edward Snowden, information was
released about how the NSA was spying on us without warrants, and James Clapper
put his hand to his temple when asked, using the passive voice, when
Ron Wyden asked him, is the government spying on millions of Americans without their
knowledge? And then he said no, And then Widen gave him a second
chance to answer, and he said no because Widen already knew that they were.
And of course Clapper then said not knowingly something to that effect. He
outright lied. Could have been prosecuted for perjury, was not. And all
they did after that in the grand furor that erupted after that, which wasn't
really a grand fear. It was only people who believe in civil liberties.
Evidently they granted Congress granted the NSA the power to do that in an indirect
way by just paying for the information. And this is where al Gore and
the climate cult come in. I said, under the guise of national security
and so on and so forth. Now we go to Adam Smith. The
political economic term for government getting the information and paying these subcontractors to hand them
the information from the phone systems or the Internet systems. The political economic term
for this is fascism, or one might use mercantilism if he or she wanted
to use the warning line wage of economist Adam Smith from seventeen seventy six,
and that is from his book The Wealth of Nations. It's actually got a
much longer title, but it's just abbreviated to that. And while the fascist
payoffs from government to corporate pals are objectionable enough, the rights attacking intent of
the connection is even more alarming, and the FEDS are expecting the practice,
expanding the practice. I recently discovered the existence of a nonprofit so called called
carbon Mapper. And yes, NewsGuard, Yes you can try to censor us
again, even though I know you were getting government money through DHARPA. Thank
you, NewsGuard. This is guard Guard. Hello, if you are interested
and would not want to bother us at MRCTV again, we use what are
called hyperlinks and what you can do I know it's sort of shocking. They've
been around for a while. You can actually click on the hyperlinks NewsGuard,
and I know it's wacky, crazy stuff. This is wild stuff, Sammy,
Hey Kat to use the jazz parlance man dig dig man. Yeah,
you know what. You can dig into the stories by clicking the hyperlinks and
finding all of the evidence, and it's all provided so you don't have to
send us emails where I have to work for an entire weekend answering your questions
and hassles that you're going to downgrade us and make it impossible for MRCTV to
get advertisers, even though you are getting my tax money. That's awesome,
that's great. Love fascism, Dungeon, NewsGuard. Have you did you reveal
that to people? Because you're so good on the truth telling side. Oh
you didn't do that, did you? Who's the good fascist entity? Yeah?
You are NewsGuard. Good for you anyway. Carbon Mapper is based out
of Pasadena, California, where I used to live, and it is a
corporation that already is working with federal agencies to use spy planes in order to
survey our so called climate change emissions. Yeah, this is real, as
as I noted, Gabriella all Own Angrera writes for Grist that Carbon Mapper is
quote a nonprofit created in twenty twenty to drive emissions mitigation, you know,
of the climate otherwise known as carbon emissions. They call them carbon emissions.
Carbon dioxide, which is on earth used by living creatures, living plants and
so on to actually grow. And then we beasts and be suburden grays on
those things. Other animals use them. Nuts, grass, flowers, pollen,
all those things they rely on carbon dioxide to grow. And then the
living animals and insects and birds, they all take care of those things because
they also they flourish thanks to the growth. I know, it's kind of
weird. I remember learning that in third grade. I don't know what happened
to some of these carbon Mapper people, but anyway, she writes that it
was a nonprofit, and by the way, good luck finding out who was
behind that nonprofit. Oftentimes, if you go to the about section of a
website, you'll find some of the investors or the founders and that sort of
stuff. Well, it's a little tricky if you go to their website.
She adds that they're going to be using aircraft, and by the way,
they're looking forward to using satellites. Yep. The aircraft that carbon Mapper uses
carries an imaging spectrometer capable of measuring hundreds of wavelengths of light. Gases absorb
different light wavelengths, leaving a spectral fingerprint invisible to the human eye. Yeah.
So what happens is if you put it through a prism, little black
bars come up, and we used to do that in the astronomy classes that
I was taking it bu So anyway, you just put the telescope up to
you find out what gas is being burned from particular star, that sort of
stuff. Through a coalition that includes the Jet Propulsion Laboratories also based in cal
Pasadena, Planet Labs, and several other institutions, carbon Mapper is working to
launch two spectrometer equipped satellites to detect methane also not going to be damaging to
the Earth and a very good byproduct of living creatures that are very useful for
human beings and co two directly at their sources. Well, as I mentioned,
there's a little more to this because if you go back to November of
last year, it turns out that in my research for MRCTV. Al Gore
was already involved in this larger web of data collection and surveillance that they want
to do on you. I said in my November thirteenth, twenty twenty two
piece entitled al Gore opens Climate Gathering COP twenty seven by pushing carbon use surveillance
satellites. I noted that Gore came to and from the COP that's the Council
of Participants Climate Cult soiree, promoting a Google Tide project called Trace, and
we'll finish it with this. Everybody, Yeah happy? What was in your
Christmas dockey a Christmas cane of candy like this? Well? Perhaps about Trace?
I got to write on their Climate Trace website, Google and al Gore's
new pal sorry, not just palell. He actually has a vested interest in
Trace, as the websites about section admits they tell Avid Avunculars quote. Until
now, most emissions inventories have been based on self reported, often years late,
data that relied on rough estimates. So what does that tell you?
We'll get to that opaque methods and inaccessible reporting. HM. There seems to
be an admission there that maybe they would like to scratch from the record.
Remember that until now. Remember that sentence. Government officials, scientists, investors,
executives and activists need better data. Hmm. I thought that they could
tell us to support the creation of policies, programs, and campaigns and policies
otherwise known as threats against you. It's just our policy here in the mafia
programs. In other words, fascist money sucking ideas that politicians won't put into
the private market and ask for voluntary investment, but will institute through taking you
and your neighbor's money and campaigns, same thing aimed at limiting global temperatureized by
one point five degrees. Celsius has agreed to under the Paris Climate Agreement,
you know, which isn't a treaty and even if it were, would not
be constitutional. So I wrote this at MRCTV. I said, beyond the
fact that the US government never agreed to that so called agreement as a treaty,
this banks the question. Even if one were to have accepted their unsupportable
premise about man's use of carbon based petrol chemicals ushering climate armageddon. If Trace
now admits that previous cultist claims of climate apocalypse were unreliable and lacked supportive data
to serve even their purposes. And of course we know they're changing the climate
record, and you can find that at Real Climate Science. There's a whole
web page showing the way the charts have been manipulated. I'll see if I
can call that up for you in a little bit, I said, even
if one were to accept their unsupportable premise about man's use of carbon based petrol
chemicals ushering climate and armageddon, if Trace al Gore invested in it at day,
if Trace now admits that previous cultist claims of climate apocalypse were unreliable and
lacked supportive data to serve even their purposes, how can they claim that their
arguments to this day are valid? I actually used the singular. Their argument
to this day is valid? I said, it's not. And more important,
their modus operandi, modus operandi a prescribing certain activities, threatening to punish
people for emissions of harmless gases, avoiding the reality that the state never can
be an aggrieved party and a tortious claim. And the new expanding surveillance eye
of Carbon Mapper and of course Trace, which will collect all of this information
they want to add to Gore's Trace, and that that tells us that the
American which we live is not the America the founders envisioned when they had opt
to the Bill of Rights. And by the way, folks, the area
where I skipped, just for brevity, I want to read you this little
part because in working with the EPA they tell us something very important. Here's
a quote from the original piece in the super aminter program. Riley durn,
CEO of Carbon Mappers, said, outside monitoring, that's a view of businesses
of farmers of maple sugar house people, people using kilns for their clay.
Outside monitoring from satellites to find out your emissions will act as a backstop to
the inspections oil and gas companies do themselves. Of course, they want to
first say that they're going to apply it to the oil and gas refiners.
But even if it's those, they say, although the EPA rule requires operators
to periodically check their infrastructure and repair leaks, inspections are made bi monthly or
even quarterly. Trapped into that EPA penalties, that's what's dropped into that.
And what is left out of EPA penalties, any constitutional hint in any way
whatsoever, of operating according to the Constitution when the EPA, which of course
is an unconstitutional body, when the EPA issues fines. First of all,
when the EPA demands information, that's a breach of the Fourth Amendment. They
don't have warrants. They're not getting warrants from judges saying you have committed a
crime, you've broken some law, some statute. No, they don't.
They demand the information. You must comfit over or you will be fined.
That is a breach of the fourth first of the contract clause. But also
well, not necessarily because the states are are prohibited, but we'll get into
the contract cause at a later time. Congress prohibits states from interfering in private
contract. But it is a breach of the Fourth Amendment of the Fifth Amendment
for self incrimination and due process of the Fifth and sixth and eighth Amendments,
and the Eighth Amendment prohibits cruel and unusual punishment. You're supposed to have a
jury trial in a timely manner based on the Bill of Rights and the Eighth
Amendment. How can you be punished if you've never even been given a trial.
The EPA's entire modus operandi runs counter to about half of the Bill of
Rights. That's fairly sizable. But I'm sure if it were challenged you wouldn't
see anything about that in the Supreme Court. And to cap this off in
this section here, as we head into another section about cars and highways,
here's something from the Telegraph from Catherine Porter. The USA is sleep balking into
a future of Christmas blackouts. Yes, the damn saying let's wait for the
blackout. Last week, the North American Electric Reliability Corporation NERK, the body
that is in charge of US and Canadian grid relfe ability, published its latest
ten year outlook. I have to look into them and see how they were
formed. And they say that sharp increases in peak demand forecasts and the potential
for higher generator retirements are raising concerns for electric reliability over the next ten years.
Well, why would those be retired other than by policy, so called
government threats to stop them? Again, if no one is being harmed,
if no one's bringing a tortious claim that I or my property have been harmed,
the state can't claim harmed because the state is not a person. So
they're just getting in the way of Heretofore, up to that point, peaceful
activity like supplying energy to people. Now there's a mixture here, because of
course, many of these facilities that are generating electricity are corporations that have been
started by states. They're often given or multiple states. In regions, they're
often given exclusive ability, like in California for the wholesale market for PG and
E, which, as I've mentioned numerous times, runs its power lines over
government run, poorly managed land, and as you could see, there were
fires that started over those lands because those power lines slough off sparks, just
like what seems to have been the cause of the Lahena fire. And we
know that California actually saw PG and E turning down and actually telling people that
were going to have rolling blackouts one of the years after they had one of
the big fires in the Napa Valley, saying that they were doing it specifically
to try to reduce fire risk. So if you had a private system of
real liability, with real private property, do you think any of that stuff,
with that high risk stuff would be allowed. No way. And of
course they do this, and then it makes us virtually trapped within their energy
grid because what are we going to do? And they want to increase the
number of people who are on the energy grid, even as they're telling people,
you've got to get electric cars in California within a few years. In
the next decade, they're going to have to be almost eighty to ninety percent
electric vehicles based on their emissions requirements, which are going to exclude the actual
internal combustion engine. How in the world are they going to have the charging
capacity to be able to provide that energy when even now they're doing rolling blackouts
in the summertime, and not just for the fire reasons. Gavin Newsom is
operating in a fantasy world, as are many of the climate climate cultists out
there. It's really incredible. But you know, with that in mind,
let's now turn to another theme. This is a good one. I get
to go back to England for a second and I get to hear from one
of the big guys from the new wave movement. He's actually a pilot as
well, and I gotta say I enjoy the guy's music a Lot's very very
cool. He is, of course, Gary Newman, so let's hear from
him right now. I hear that, As I said, when that song
came out, the sonic qualities of the song were just they blew people away,
they raised the hair on the back of your neck, that sort of
thing. Many people were just amazed by the shrill sound of the synthesizer.
It was really quite quite different from anything that anybody had really ever heard,
and of course really wrote on the established work of people like Emerson Lake and
Palmer of people using the Moog synthesizer and so on. Gary Numan with cars
and that lets us round things off with the story of the cars. As
I mentioned on December fifth, I'm wondering and maybe you are, is government
losing its insane game to force evs on us? And if you hear David
Knight and Eric Peters speak on this program as they get to chat about what's
going on, many of the major corporations involved with making cars have lost a
lot of money as they've invested in something that people just don't want, but
politicians want to foist on people things that are extremely dangerous, that can be
involved with fires that are almost impossible to put out with any human effort.
It's amazing. So here's a little something from December fifth from MRCTV, and
again kudos and thanks to the m RCTV team and this one by p Gardner
Goldsmith. Don't know who that guy is. In the Declaration of Independence,
Thomas Jefferson put words to the sentiments of many colonials of the time when you
describe British government actions in America as a long train of abuses. Today that
train is run by the FEDS in d C, various state and local governments,
and the politically connected media and special interests who seem to roll over our
rights at an accelerated rate. And as a little comical equip just to bring
take that political smile to frown and turn it upside down, turn it into
a smile. Of course, the long train of abuses now includes Amtrak,
a literal train run by the government taking our money. So how things have
really changed, a mister Jefferson, Oh man, we're moving on up.
Today. That train is run by the FEDS in DC, various state to
local governments, and the politically connected media and special interests who seem to roll
over our rights at an accelerated rate. But another train seems to have appeared.
It's a train composed of numerous recent reports about consumers and automakers rejecting the
highly hyped climate Canard connected government subsidized electric vehicle push of recent years. But
that's okay because Kamala Harris has tens of millions of dollars going out for electric
postal trucks. That'll be awesome in North Dakota and January, won't it?
Welcome to main it. Where's my mail? Sorry, you're being evicted.
I never got the bill. Well, you know that's because the postal service
has been so awesome. By the way, they need more of your money
to keep afloat. But let's continue these good ideas. They're just awesome.
Ask Lessanders Spooner, who started his own private postal service in the eighteen hundreds,
wrote the book No Treason, the Constant Tution of No Authority, and
showed that none of you or I signed the Constitution. It was signed by
people who can't claim to have represented us, and it is foist on us.
And the least we can do is just ask those people running for the
offices, please please uphold your promise to abide by the rules in there.
But they don't. So that's where we get things like subsidized government run solar
things like Trace Anyway from four dropping the price of its F one fifty lightning
in July. That was the second time they dropped it because so many were
sitting on sales lots where the trucks have to be fed power to keep the
batteries viable. Thank you Eric Peters for educating me on that. I really
appreciate his amazing insights. His writing is incredible and fun to read. Go
to Eric petersautos dot com. To the corporation later announcing a long term delay
in what had been a planned twelve billion period investment in making more evs,
to GM dropping its plan to start another EV pickup plant, and Toyota sounding
alarms and dropping big EV plans. Early and consistent critics of this anti market,
anti freedom move by the FEDS to steer automakers towards expensive, unreliable,
heavy fire prone evs and away from fueling consumer demand for efficient, low priced,
well built vehicles that run on inexpensive, plentiful, portable, storable gas
and diesel have been proven right, all right, despite billions in Biden administration
subsidies to push automakers into changing their plants. Remember the millions that Biden just
sent out to a couple plants for GM. Yeah, they're shutting those plants
down, well pretty much. They're giving pink notices to thousands of workers at
two Michigan plants despite billion and Biden administration subsidies to push automakers into changing their
plants to only make evs, despite federal government mandates on emissions that will push
automakers to have to eliminate internal combustion engines from their lines by twenty thirty.
Will there be a revolution before then? I don't know. Automobile manufacturers and
recently four thousand car dealership owners are sounding the bells of protest. And now
Volkswagen, a year after its CEO announced it couldn't sustain viability of its EV
battery manufacturing in Europe, Well maybe they could just open their doors to anybody
who, just as a pastime, loves to glue his hand to a display
room floor and call himself a doctor. They are hemorrhaging money so much that
they're drastically cutting their EV production. Peter Johnson notes for Elektrek that, as
crazy as it sounds, European consumer demand I know for eves has halved.
Antilists. Volkswagen CFO explained on a media call last month that the EV orders
are down to one hundred and fifty thousand in Europe. That's fifty percent lower
than the three hundred thousand from last year. Ah So maybe, just maybe
there is hope as they try to go about this wonderful, great reset.
What do you think, folks? Let me know as we approach the end
of the year. I'm Gardner Golsmith filling in for David Knight. Happy cheerful
day after Merry Christmas Day, and we're going to enjoy some extension of the
Christmas cheer today as I fill in for David with great thanks to David and
the Night family. Want to remind you if you want to get your mcguffin
T shirt, go to the Davidnightshow dot com. You want to get any
of the items that are over there, please check them out. I think
you're going to really really love them. And we're going to extend that Christmas
spirit a little bit today. As I check in with rockfinchats was going on
with people don't forget You can contribute at Rockfinn and Rumble, and of course
you can always go to the David Knightshow dot com and find out all the
areas where you can stream the show and find all the links to the show.
Thank you, and welcome to rockfinnchatters who are right there right now,
Little John Merry Christmas a little late, but thank you so much for joining
us. Karen Carpenter. Great to see you, Karen. And by the
way, I hope you still have that a festive hat that you had when
I saw you with the Knights of the Storm. Great stuff. You are
always so much fun to see. Your opinions are fantastic. Michael Palmroy is
in Rockfinchat. Thank you for being there. And I also want to thank
the folks at rumble Chat and Rumble viewers. And this is amazing. You
know, when I do Liberty Conspiracy, we you know, we might get
a nice number of people, and it's just the audience here is just big.
It's wonderful, and they are attracted, I think for many reasons,
gathering that daily news, going to the links, the sites that David Knight
mentions, and I hope I'm mentioning them if you want to find many of
these, I'm hoping that I'm giving you the references. And on my Liberty
Conspiracy Show, I try to make that a news source every day, so
that when you watch that show, a links up to my Twitter slash x
feed for that day. And if you want to get that information for a
story that might have been the one that really interested you and we say,
oh, I want to send this out and went out to friends or a
couple stories. You can do that. And on Sundays I put out my
Sunday News Assembly at Substag and that is typically at least twenty stories. This
week it was twenty one stories that are breaking news stories pertinent to perhaps you
can decide of course to you and your freedoms and contextual information that helps us
open up the political onions, unpeel those and get some long standing intellectual ammunition
that we can then apply through lessons from these stories, give them to future
generations, or just for our own edification. Take that intellectual ammunition and apply
that in a syllogistic way to news stories that might be breaking and say,
oh wait, I can compare what was this, what was that? What's
that historical figure? What's that economic term? I remember we got that from
this story. So you can do that if you are headed to Liberty Conspiracy
each night Monday through Friday, we're on Rumble and on Rockfin and on my
Twitter feed again it's at guard Goldsmith. And I should mention also I always
forget about this. My fiction. Right now, I have three novellas that
are out. You can find those on Amazon and Barnes and Noble, and
I very rarely mention those things. My script writing days are you know,
past me when I worked in television at Star Trek Voyager and very utopian there
with their un symbology and the Outer Limits where they were very dystopian there at
the Outer Limits, there was always something that future science was going to screw
up somehow, you know, mutation starvation, you know, whatever it might
be. But yeah, it's been a long time since then. I've gotten
into prose fiction. So I have a number of novels that are going to
be coming out. One of them was delayed because the publishing company offered me
a contract and I actually declined the contract because they wanted me to. They
said, oh, are you gonna go under a pseudonym? And I said,
what are you talking about? Essentially I'm paraphrasing, and they said,
well, you know, we've been seeing that you have a lot of political
work. I'm like, that is my work. I support my principles and
I try to expand what my parents gave to me. And you know,
the ideas of peace and leaving my neighbor alone, the Golden rule, as
Charles said, and except that's exactly the opposite of what he's working for.
You will you will leave people alone, leave him alone as he decides for
everybody. So I declined their contract. And there's been a book that's now
I don't know if it's been waiting to come out for six years. It's
the sequel to one of my novellas, so four hundred and forty page novel.
It hasn't come out yet, so I might have to put that out
myself. But you can find my fiction at Amazon. Just look up Gardner
Goldsmith and you'll find Bite, which is a vampire story Fishing, which is
a very dark, very violent story, so beware of that. Don't give
it to, you know, young teenagers or anything like that. And I
apologize for some of the language in that it's about a mass murderer. And
then Wall, which is sort of crypto archaeological stuff based on the idea of
what if there had been a Great Wall of China ten thousand years before the
original one, before the Han, before the major dynasty's phase, and what
might that have been, like, why would they have built that giant wall?
So and it gets supernaturally weird, But thank you all. Really appreciate
you being there inside rumble. To get back to the rumble folks. How
ninth thousand Watson, thank you so much again. That IBM reference very key
and thank you. Let's see we've got Big British back again. Says they
are making ev insurance very high here. They are even being banned from underground
car parks. Yes, and the weight of those things, as I mentioned
on Liberty Conspiracy, big brit I have sorry if I'm shortening that in a
strange way. If that's not the way you would like it, Oh,
sorry, but I'll just call you a big brit But yeah, the weight
of those cars means that. As I mentioned when we went down to the
Boston Garden to see Andrea Bocelli last week, I don't know how they can
keep track because they can't fit as many cars into those parking garages. They're
not made for that type of weight. What are they going to do if
they're all or a larger number of them become electric vehicles. And of course
if there's a fire, even if you don't park close to one of those
one of those electric vehicles, if there's a fire in one of the floors
of those places, that could cause major problems for the other cars around it
and then destroy your car. So what are you going to do. We've
got condo complexes that are now banning them, a lot of things like that,
malls, that sort of thing, narrow away narrowgate ministries. Thank you
very very much for being there. I cannot understand why someone would by rolling
a Molotov cocktail and park it, yeah, it would buy buy, sorry,
would buy a rolling Molotov cocktail and park it in the garage of their
home. It's a ticking time bomb. Absolutely, and then having to charge
it. Of course, you can't charge unless you change the electrics in your
home to allow for higher capacity, and that is a big fire risk,
unbelievable. As Eric Peters mentioned, the through time of charging for getting a
full charge, even on high capacity government subsidized chargers outside is many, many,
many, many minutes, and at fifteen at the shortest twenty at the
shortest twenty and fifteen to twenty and that means that you're going to have people
waiting. It's just ridiculous. The whole concept is insane. Quick thoughts again
over at Rockfinn and Harps is there from Australia. Happy Christmas, Harps,
and thank you for the great communications and Brian Deb McCartney two two, two
viewers in one, good morning God, God, Mourning Guard and all the
Rock Finn family and they are like a family there, you know, folks,
while we have the opportunity, and since I'm feeling in for David Knight,
this great, great occasion for everybody, let's take this opportunity to remind
ourselves about seasons greetings and some of the other canards that they've foist on us
like this. This was actually a New York City health billboard that put out
and electronically put out I believe on their Twitter feed someone grabbed it. Seasons
Greetings, I wrote from the fascist fools in government. Yes, they're telling
people to mask up because of course that N ninety five mask does so much.
Well, thanks for joining us on the show. Everybody remember the Davidnightshow
dot com. And I think I also have something else to carry on some
of that Christmas cheer. I'm delighted to present something born from my love for
music in the Christmas season. Christmas Night is a perfect companiment for anything from
family gatherings. The moments of peaceful reflection help us to provide a fresh take
to the soundtrack of Christmas. This collection of twenty instrumental songs brings new life
to timeless Christmas classics with original orchestrations alongside lesser known, yet equally enchanting carols.
For the listeners of The David Knight Show, this is more than music
as part of our shared journey. Christmas Night is available at the Davidnightshow dot
com. May it bring a little extra joy and peace to your Christmas season.
Thank you for your unwavering support and for joining me in this new musical
adventure. Merry Christmas to all and all. A good Christmas night, wonderful
stuff. And you know, I'm listening to that, I'm watching that,
and I am taking nice long breaths and just you know, feeling the satisfaction
of just being associated with David Knight. If you're just joining us, folks,
I'm Gardner Goldsmith filling in for David. He's taking some time off for
the holidays and that album is wonderful. It's relaxing. It just puts a
smile on your face. And it's interesting when David approaches me and Tony will
be filling in Tony Hardeburn of Wise Wolf Gold and Silver Exchange and you can
contact them and go to Davidknight dot gold to get involved with the wolf Pack
or just buy a spot purchase of silver and gold. As of course,
the US dollar is going to be going down, going down, down down,
as a great New Way of Song used to say. But it really
puts a smile on your face just to think about all the good people like
David who strived to really do something good for the audience, and how big
a drive that is. It's almost it's strange because you get into the nervousness
of wanting to put on a good show, to be gracious for the audience.
You know that this is going to be around live and after the fact
people might be listening to this on their way home, so you want to
provide good information. You know you're filling in for David Knight, who is
just the king of information. He's just amazing, and so it's quite fascinating
to embark on that nervousness, making sure you get the tech right, that
sort of stuff. So the measurement of the length of time you talk about
a subject, the different facets of a subject, it's quite interesting. So
thank you so much. And when it comes to that David Night music,
I was doing so much work listening to that music and I hope that if
I can engender some positive ideas to go over and get that please check it
out, because it is amazing what he's done. It's incredible using his musical
abilities and his capacity not just to play instruments, but to compose instruments with
some of the technology he's got. And I also want to just put out
another quick mention to the folks who donated last week to David's show. It
is just as you know, David relies on donations for this show, so
it's up to us. It's up to us to support the source of information,
the people behind it. So I want to just congratulate and thank everyone
I know, well, you know I'm on David's show, so I've been
doing this on my show at Liberty Conspiracy as a person who's been given such
a kind welcome from David and knows David and really just loves their family.
When I see that sort of response on donations for David's show, contributions to
keep that show running, He's got his gas gauge and they measure it.
It is just fantastic. So thank you one and all, and let's continue
that all throughout the year and maintain that kindred spirit, that kinship with David.
You can of course contribute over at Rockfinn at Rumble, and you can
go to Subscribe Star and subscribe there on a monthly basis if you want to
do that. And Rumble I believe until the end of the year is not
taking a percentage out of contributions over at Rumble, So keep it in mind.
If you're so inclined. Kevin Klein, please please remember David's show.
What a great, great way to really support freedom. I'm looking over in
the corner and I have a cap here. I'll just show you. I
often mentioned this on my show. I also watch Clayton and Natalie Morris of
Redacted, and so I supported them by getting one of their hats. And
you know, I'll give a little plug for them, even though you know,
just sitting and we're not going to talk about information provided by redacted.
But they again are the sorts of people where they have a lot of viewers
on Rumble, maybe they get some ad support, they go on YouTube,
but they can't talk about everything on YouTube. They're censored, And David has
been so heavily censored that it really is awesome to see how we recognize this
and we're pushing back. So thanks everybody for doing that, just for me
from the Goldsmith household, from the Old English, English and Irish. A
lot of people think I'm Jewish. So we're going to get into the situation
happening in Israel soon. But let's right now very quickly at a very good
piece to follow up and sort of cap off this idea of austerity, the
government running our energy, fertilizer, communications, injections, medicine. This comes
from the Mesa's Institute. Anthony Mueller wrote this in twenty twenty November. About
twenty four hundred years ago, the Greek philosopher Plato came up with the idea
constructing the state and society according of constructing the state in society according to an
elaborate plan. I have a cunning plan. Oh yes, Baldric, thank
you, Blackadder. Plato wanted wise men, philosophers at the helm of the
government, but he made it also clear that this kind of state would need
a transformation of the humans. Yes, of course, and it was done
by the noble lie he wanted to. Plato wanted to create the just city,
the most just city, and it was founded on what a lie that
different people had different types of metals in them, and the people had gold
in their systems were to be the rulers, and the people had the base
metals were the lower cast Isn't that great? Does it remind you of anybody
like maybe Klaus Schwab and al Gore? And he says here in modern times,
the promoters of the omnipotent state want to substitute Plato's philosopher with the expert
and create the new man through eugenics, which is now called transhumanism. The
United Nations and its various sub organizations play a pivotal role in this project,
which has reached its present stage in the project of the Agenda twenty thirty and
the Great Reset. A lot of that has to do with energy control.
We'll get to what's going on in the Middle East and just a moment the
Great Reset, with of course a memory of wonderful Mattaline Albright. The Great
Reset did not come from nowhere. The first modern attempts to create a global
institution with a government function was launched by the government of Woodrow Wilson, who
acted as a US President from nineteen thirteen to nineteen twenty one, under the
inspiration of Colonel mandel House, the president's prime advisor, and he was heavily
connected to the British The president's prime advisor and best friend Wilson made, that
was Mantelhouse. Wilson made wanted to establish a world forum for the period after
World War One. Yet the plan of American participation in the League of Nations
failed, and the drive towards internationalism and establishing a new world order receded.
During the Roaring twenties. A new move toward managing a society like an organization,
top down, central command and control, however, came during the Great
Depression. What a shock. Franklin Dell and Roosevelt did not let the crisis
go to waste, of course, driving his agenda forward with his New Deal.
FDR was a manufactured crisis government made. FDR was especially interested in the
special executive privileges that came with the Second World War. Ah, those privileges,
you know, just the kinds of things that they tell us today with
the War Powers Act are totally constitutional and yet are not, and they play
and play along these lines. FDR was especially interested in these special executive powers
that came after and during World War Two. Resistance was almost nil when he
moved forward to lay the groundwork for a new League of Nations, which was
now to be named the United Nations. Under the leadership of classy people like
Stall, Churchill and Roosevelt, twenty six nations agreed in January nineteen forty two
to the initiative of establishing a United Nations Organization UNO, which came into existence
on October twenty fourth, nineteen forty five. And of course, just two
years later they took over a lot of land in the Middle East and established
the State of Israel. But of course one cannot criticize the State of Israel
a state policy, because that would mean that you were anti Semitic, right,
And as we saw with Representatives Stephanick who called in the heads of MIT,
Harvard and University of Pennsylvania on this what I think is overblown, although
there have been instances of this, accusations of terrible, terrible anti Semitism,
which often is a misconstruing of people just calling for a ceasefire in Gaza.
And British commentator Douglas Murray in a debate with Chenk Younger of the Young Turks
it's not so aptly named, sadly named reference to the Armenian genocide. I
don't know why they use that term, but Douglas Murray, the conservative brit
who went to Israel to report on the battle against Gaza, where you know,
thousands, tens of thousands have been killed. We'll go into that in
a minute. How many starving right now? How many without medical care?
Not just those blown apart or crushed due to our ammunition and armaments. The
Douglas Murray's of the world evidently seem to think that, even Sank Younger,
who says, how about a two state solution? He being a hardcore left
wing collectivist but actually saying how about a two state solution? And Douglas Murray
saying no, there cannot be a two state solution, Well, what does
that mean? That means that there will be no Palestinians there unless it gives
you three options. It gives you the option of genocide. It gives you
the option of flushing them out and having no more Palestinians there, or flushing
most of them out, killing the rest and leaving those people, maybe most
of the rest, those people who are left there who were told to travel
to southern Gaza. And then the Israeli started bombing that because, of course,
the excuse they gave was the same excuse they gave for killing their own
civilians under the IDF during that October seventh battle where the Homas people crossed the
border and took hostages and so on, killed a lot of people, But
the Israeli forces killed a lot of innocent people and their own soldiers because they
said they distinguish between their people and Hamas, which is exactly what I warned
people on my show was going to happen when they moved. They told everybody
to move south, and now they're shelling the south. Where are they going
to go? What are the options? Douglas Murray, If there isn't a
two state solution, what are you implying? I think we know there will
be no Palestinians by name. Anyway, everyone will be ensconced within a much
larger Israel. That's causing some problems there, is it? Because you want
to put a pipeline through, you want new way to transport oil, You're
going to dig a new a new water channel through there. I don't know
what are you going to do? A new canal? What's going to happen?
Well, these central planners, they've been around, of course since the
nineteen forties, as we saw with the creation of the UN, but even
before that, in the mid eighteen hundreds, there were people working on a
worldwide basis to try to establish a Jewish state is in the Palestinian region.
And just to finish this off, the unctuous pronouncements of promoting international peace and
security, of course through the force of government, which is not peaceful,
developing friendly relations among nations right under one giant nation, supranational national control,
and how dare you step out of line and working for social progress, better
living standards and human rights hides the agenda of establishing a world government with executive
powers, because of course government is in opposition of human rights. As I
mentioned as an anarchist, as a voluntarist anarchist anarchy, not meaning violence like
the people who adopted the mantle of the anarchists who were really socialists in the
nineteen twenties, but anarchy meaning no human ruler. A person or group of
people who presume to usurp your ability to control your own life and make decisions
for yourself. They are acting in an aggressive way that's immoral. It doesn't
matter whether one person does it or fifty people vote to have it done.
It doesn't make it any more acceptable having a piece of paper that was voted
on by a group of people to say, here's this piece of paper,
this will give us control over you. Whether it was done in the UN
or even yes, the United States Constitution, it doesn't matter. What if
they were to amend the Constitution to take away the Second Amendment, would it
then be acceptable for government to go after privately held weapons of self defense?
Of course not. Would it be acceptable for government to force my neighbor to
pay for the armed police force that then would go out and act as jack
booted thugs and take away people's guns. No, so they're doing that now.
But the predicate, the immoral predicate, is the basis for my philosophy.
Checking that predicate at every front to say, is someone being forced to
pay for this? Am am I in wanting some result from government imposing my
will on someone else and hiding that aggression, glossing it over with the candy
coding of well, everyone voted, they did their civic duty, so let's
march forward with brown shirts all all tight and ready, let's goostep to the
glorious future of doing this under the name of human rights by taking away people's
rights, which is exactly what the UN does. They say. This became
clear with the creation of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization UNESCO
in nineteen forty five, and that's when they started pushing eugenics. Under the
foundation of UNESCO in nineteen forty five, the English evolutionary biologist, eugenicist and
declared globalist Julian Huxley, brother of Aldus Huxley, became its first director.
At the launch of the organization, Huxley called for quote a scientific world,
humanism global in extent reminds you of anything that you might have heard at the
beginning of the program from a king, and asked to manipulate human evolution to
a desirable end. Referring to dialectical materialism. Otherwise Hegel meets Marx as the
first radical attempt at an evolutionary philosophy. And by the way, the dialectic
there, the dialectic is a non choice sort of like would you prefer to
get groped or scanned at the airports? And by the way, on liberty
conspiracy, As a quick aside talking about the surveillance state with al Gore,
I find it quite bemusing, not amusing, but bemusing that many Americans have
been up in arms over two things. First that right aid was doing facial
scans of some customers for ID purposes. And second that pharmacies like CBS and
Walgreens and others were giving government people's medical information. Well, as I've noted,
and I've noted since it was passed in nineteen ninety six, HIPPA.
If you go between pages seventy five and ninety five of the Health Insurance Portability
and Addressability Act or whatever it's called, that was purported by people like Orne
Hatch, the supposed conservative from Utah, the senator who said that it was
going to promote privacy. That was purported as something that would provide you privacy
at your doctor's office. Well, in the great Eugenics government surveillance giant grid
that they slowly have built up over the years, that wasn't anything like that.
If you want your information to be private at your doctor's office, that's
up to you and the doctor and a contractual arrangement between you. If you
don't care about it, then you don't have to have it as part of
your contract. You can go to a doctor that may be charge is less
because he sends your medical information out to advertisers, to insurance companies, whatever.
Maybe you get a discount. It's up to you. In a private
market, those things would appeal or not appeal, and the market rise or
fall for those people. That's all. They get more or fewer customers because
of how they exchanged information, because of how they treated their customers and their
customers' interests and what they did more paperwork. Okay, I might go there
because I know my information is secure. It's a little higher price. The
government imposed itself between the private contracts of customers and doctors, patients and doctors,
and said, no, we are going to make it such that if
you want to share private information with anybody else, beyond this office. You
have to get the patient to sign that based on government dictad that's not freedom,
that's not privacy. That's a bully interposing between you and somebody else,
the bully wearing the cloak of the federal government, without out any constitutional authority
to do so, but moreover, without any moral authority to do so,
because intervening between two consenting people involved in a private market exchange is immoral and
it immediately degrades the ability of the market to be able to show what people
really want. Do you want more privacy? Do you want less privacy?
Let's see the market compete about that. You don't have that choice now,
because in nineteen ninety six, Orange Hatch and Ted Kennedy and others like Nancy
Cassabaum, they all worked, and John McCain, they all worked to destroy
that contract freedom. They also put into Hippa, something that actually didn't start
until Obamacare was finally initiated after the ridiculous Supreme Court ruling saying that Obamacare is
perfectly fine. And that is something that is between pages seventy five and ninety
five of the PDF, and you can find it, you can read it.
Is it mandates that any medical office that takes Medicare, Medicaid or other
government subsidized patients must apply a patient number a code to the patient's all patients
and supply that information to the Director of Health and Human Services any time the
head of AHHS, a highly unconstitutional federal body, demands that information. This
is something people should have been up in arms about in nineteen ninety six,
and I've been writing about it ever since then. I have many pieces about
it with Yes Hyperlinks NewsGuard in my MRCTV pieces for MRCTV, and very few
people have spoken about this. So as they started to engage in contact tracing,
I would hear from people and they would say, Oh, how are
they doing this? Well, how do you think they're doing it? You
never stopped hippa. You actually praise HIPPA in this bizarre, upside down world.
You're praising the intervention the usurpatient by government of your ability to privately contract.
How in the world are you not a slave? That's absurd. You're
a data slave. You are their food, you're their fodder, and now
they want to watch you from satellites to find out if you're making maple syrup
or you have a kiln where you're doing pottery. Maybe there's your side gig
so you can continue paying for your electric vehicle, keep it parked outside draining
power just so you don't burn your house down. Its insane, absolutely ridiculous.
And I want to mention that when we look at this information about CBS
and about the facial recognition at right, aid, I don't understand why Americans
have suddenly become enraged by facial recognition being done by a private drug store.
And yet the TSA two years ago, starting in Florida and North Carolina and
Georgia, I think Atlanta in particular, and other a few other airports.
It was about sixteen airports started their test run of facial recognition. We go
back to the Hegelian dialectic. They say, oh, you're here at the
airport hello, And I say uh. They point me to the scanner and
I say, oh, no, I'm not going to get irradiated. You're
going to have to grope me. And they say, oh, you're choosing
the pat down. I say, I'm not choosing anything. You're imposing yourself
between me and the airline with which I want to contract. This started,
of course, with the federal takeover of the air routes, starting with the
United States Postal Service and lighted air routes in the nineteen twenties that they claimed
no private carriers could use. They didn't have radar, so they started lighted
air routes at night with big lights on them going across the country, and
they had giant arrows made of concrete, which you can still see in the
Southwest down on the ground that would point towards airports. And they prohibited private
carriers like pan Am at that time from flying those routes. They couldn't do
that, but they did in the United States Postal Service. They turned them
something like postal roads, like post roads, similar to the creation of the
Interstate highway system. And we'll tell you about that in just a minute,
because there's more coming with the car stuff. But this Hegelian dialectic that they
mention here, it is absolutely right. It's dialectical materialism. They give you
false choices, they say, the first radical attempt at an evolutionary philosophy.
The director of UNESCO laments that the Marxist approach to changing society was bound to
fail because of its lack of an indispensable biological component, so they engage in
eugenics. And of course now it's for the survival of all that some people
must be controlled by the people who will be the controllers, and he mentions
many people here, Margaret Sanger, H. G. Wells, Theodore Roosevelt,
Bill Gates, and of course Microsoft co founder and head of the Bill
and Melinda Gates Foundation, Bill Gates. Check this out if you get the
opportunity. It's at the mesas Wire and I will tweet it later today at
guard Goldsmith. Let's talk about those highways, shall we? And once more,
let's hear a little something from our pal Gary Numan. So how does
this all tie into what I mentioned at the beginning of the program here in
the David Knights Show, Because if we look at what we're planning for the
rest of the show and what we've gotten to discuss so far in the show,
we're going to talk about the battles in the Middle East, battles over
oil, battles over land. But what are the paving stones that they put
forward, Because of course they're not going to let us use tarmacs. We're
gonna have to use paving stones, gonna have cobblestone streets. I said,
how the climate cult's death agenda today follows decades of government encroachment of travel rights.
Well, we saw a little bit about UNESCO, a little reference there
to the future that you can find by checking out. You can make for
yourself by checking out that United Nations and the origins of the Great Reset Peace
from Mesu's wire. But this is a story out of Austin, Texas,
and I know that David is very happy he's not having to go around Austin
anymore. Check this out. Everybody think about the past oh seventy years since
World War Two. What was one of the things that Eisenhower found very important
to do. What was one of the things that many of the people came
after and found very important to do. Interstate highways of course, inspired by
the Autobahn. It's part of defense purposes, right. Well, there's a
story from the cool Down that shows just how much people have accepted and what
they shouldn't accept, and how after years and years of those types of encroachments
into liberty and localism, some people are starting to push back. I wonder
if they understand the deeper roots of this, which go back to American him
history, and the fact that in American history it wasn't the government that originally
made the roads. Even in Great Britain, the roads were common areas in
local vicinities between farmers who would allow access for their neighbors to bring their materials
to market, their cattle, vegetables, and produce. And it was a
voluntary system, and it was a neighborly thing to allow a little bit of
access for your neighbors to get through. And those people who didn't allow that
were kind of excluded and shunned from working with other people and being as prosperous
as others. Now we see the malignant manifestation of this is coming back again.
It is the Interstate highway system in Austin. And here's the story coming
from the cool Down. The headline reads, residents outraged over approval of controversial
massive highway expansion in major city. Everyone needs to get involved and get ready
for your comments at Rockfin and Rumble. And there are some other comments as
well that I'm going to be reading from a couple of the other stories coming
up. I got to check some of those and I really appreciate your thoughts.
Rockfinn, Rumble go for it. Here we are. Jeremiah Buden writes
this, the Texas Department of Transportation has received federal approval for a controversial plan
to expand Interstate thirty five through Austin. Is that route sixty six, No,
that became a graveyard after the Interstates over the objections of local citizens and
advocacy groups. The government of Texas is ready to do this. Thanks to
the federal government. They have gotten approval for this. It's an interstate of
course, and the locals say the pro will have massive negative impacts on the
environment and quality of life in the city. It's billions of dollars, folks,
four point five billion dollar highway expansion. It will add two lanes in
each direction in certain sections and widen other areas, which officials say will reduce
traffic. Oh so, well, we've got to combine the interest of people.
We've got to weigh certain interests here. Well, who's actually weighing this,
who's funding this, who gets to respond and stop if they don't like
it? To the local people. When the interstate highway systems were put in,
much like the government funded rail systems like the Transcontinental Railroad, which saw
numerous politicians in Washington, DC buying land where they knew they could steer the
railroad and then reselling it to the federal government at massive profits, which is
exactly something that Abraham Lincoln did, and then the project was way overdue,
way over budget. At the same time it was beaten by a private Transcontinental
railroad. These sorts of things give special favors otherwise known as rent seeking,
to people who want government policy to harm others but help them. It's a
four point five billion dollar highway expansion that itself is an imposition on people in
places like the United States government that don't have the money, so future generations
who have no say in this land of the Free will be forced to pay
for it. They say this project will bring congestion relief to Central Texas.
Texas Transportation Tax Sucking Commissioned Chairman J. Bruce Bug Junior said, according to
KVUE, well some of the locals aren't too happy. One downside of expanding
a highway to relieve traffic is that it doesn't actually work. Studies have shown
that increasing the size of highways does nothing to ease congestion and instead actually increases
traffic while also increasing car and noise pollution and displacing residents. Well, that's
debatable. I think they have Houston, Texas here as an example, the
world's largest freeway weighs in in a gargantuan twenty six lanes. The result is
standstill traffic. Advocacy groups Rethink thirty five say they had harsh words for the
plan. They say, as a heat dome scorches Central Texas in record temperatures,
there could be no greater. Oh, just put a thermometer there and
that'll help. The climate Canard promoters to say that temperatures a rising, put
it near an air conditioning vent, that'll be good. Or even if the
numbers don't give you the data that you want, just do what the people
at climate Gate one and two did at University of East Anglia, or do
what Michael Mann seems to have done and manipulate the data. Rethink thirty five's
board president Adam Greenfield said, quote it's a heat as a heat dome scorches
them. Department of Transportation of Texas is announcing its decision to massively span I
thirty five through Austin, And of course a lot of people say they've got
to unite It's time to unite and defend our city, region and planet,
said one person the Austin City councilor in a press release named Greenfield. Everyone
needs to get involved. Department of Transportation Texas can be stopped. So we
have localities, we have the state. What happened when the interstate were started,
Well, here are some of the consequences. Jacob Hornberger is the head
of the Future of Freedom Foundation. He wrote this in twenty twenty two,
and by the way, every week Jacob Hornberger and one of my mentors,
Richard Ebling, great economist, economics professor formerly of Hillsdale College who left after
they sort of pushed out on many of the real free market Austrian economics people.
Also former head of Foundation for Economic Education. He now teaches economics at
the Citadel. Jacob Horne and Richard Ebling, the man I just mentioned.
Every week on the FFF Future Freedom Foundation YouTube channel, they talk about economics
and they're just phenomenal and they haven't been censored that much either, So that's
a really good thing if you want good information. And he writes this in
twenty twenty two. I was recently on a road trip to Missouri where I
saw a sign that indicated that I was on the famed Route sixty six,
a US highway that ran from Chicago to Los Angeles from the nineteen twenties through
the nineteen sixties. Although I grew up in South Texas as a kid,
I was very familiar with Route sixty six because of one of my favorite television
programs. It was called Route sixty six. And by the way, they
shot that all on Route sixty six. It was black and white, beautifully
photographed, and all of those episodes I believe are still available on bit shoot.
It's remarkable. It's a great show. Every story was separate as Martin
Milner and George Maharis, the two actors who played the main characters. Characters
traveled I think it was west on Route sixty six and encountered new people in
each town, and they shot them in those towns. Literally you can see
like they were shooting as daylight was, you know, receding, trying to
get the shots in. It's an amazing, amazing experience to watch and learn
from this program Root sixty six. The show featured such guest stars as Peter
Lourie. I saw one of those who's great lawn Chaney Junior, Boris Karloff,
Buster Keaton, James Coburn, as Ed Asner, Joey Heatherton, Tuesday
welld Slim Pickens, William Shatner, DeForest Kelly, and many others. The
show ran from nineteen sixty to nineteen sixty four. Route sixty six was established
in nineteen twenty six. It ultimately became one of the most famous roads in
the US. As you can imagine, countless businesses along the highway got established
after the road was built. These included motels, restaurants, fast food places,
tourist attractions, and countless stores. And of course, I'm sure you're
familiar with what happened. Most of all those businesses ended up being destroyed by
the biggest socialist project in American history, the Interstate Highway System. I think
maybe COVID might beat that now, I don't know, hasn't been running as
long the government subsidized welfare schemes of Medicare and Medicaid, socialist Ponzi scheme of
Social Security, which, by the way, its first year, when social
Security paid out, it paid people more than what they could have put into
it. So what always was a ponzi scheme relying on the input from people
who were not yet retired, writes Jacob Hornberger. He says, he says,
most of all those businesses ended up being destroyed by the biggest socialist project
in American history, the Interstate Highway System, a massive federal public works project
that was inspired by the Autobahn system of National Socialist Germany. This massive socialist
program commenced in the nineteen fifties under the Eisenhower administration. Today, it's easy
for socialists to point to the Interstate Highway System and exclaim, look at what
we socialists did to facilitate transportation within the United States. Of course, that
goes to Frederick Bosty's what is seen, what is not seen? What is
not seen, or all the opportunities that people have lost because they had to
fund that. It warps the flow of usable capital, puts it into things
and new projects, new businesses that wouldn't have started up, takes money away
from flourishing businesses, and causes deterioration of what human beings actually started for their
real natural interpersonal relations. He says, However, as with all socialist projects,
it's necessary also to see what is unseen about socialist projects. For one
thing. What is one of the main complaints of status today, isn't it
air pollution? Well, guess what one of the principal causes of air pollution
is. That would be automobiles. The interstate highway system was a gigantic subsidy
to the automobile, and it has been one of the principal causes, if
not the principal cause, of the extremely large number of pollution producing cars that
have been sold in the past seventy years. That's one of the unseen consequences
of this massive socialist program. Then, of course you get government regulations in
the cars. I haven't I think cars are great, and of course many
deaths at higher speeds, but you know, people should be able to choose
just smaller areas of control, at least based on what the founders wanted.
Now, I just want to mention the idea that the interstate highway system could
be done under military rationale for the protection of the United States. That's the
argument. Let's fold that back a little bit and look at this as if
I were in one of the lecture halls, and or you were in one
of the lecture halls and you were up at the border I was up at
the board, you know, I was doing my professorial stuff or whatever.
Right, So in my teaching years, I would cover the interstate interstate highway
system, and I typically would get arguments from people who some of the students
who are pretty well versed in American history. But they, to my eyes,
they wouldn't take that extra step, which was to they would say,
well, you know, Gardner or mister Goldsmith. They would say the highway
system was done for defense, and that is a constitutional purview. And again
I'll say, I didn't sign a constitution. But even if you look at
the Constitution as a valid so called document with authority, and I don't see
how people can arbitrarily claim authority over other people. But let's say that they
voted to have authority over you, and somehow that that's valid. At least
the Constitution has certain rules under which they're supposed to operate. Right. The
Constitution only gives the federal government three forms of land purview over three forms of
land. They can only control three forms of land. One is the ten
square mile area of the capital. They chose Washington, d C. And
of course it's a wonderful, very very safe place to live. Second,
are territories. When territories enter the Union, they're supposed to enter with all
the so called rights and privileges of every state. Every state does not have
any requirement to seed land to the federal government in any way whatsoever. And
even if they could seed land, which means all the parks, all the
national monuments, and whar all these areas, Even if they could seed land
to the federal government, there's no provision in the Constitution that is an enumerated
power that allows the Feds to actually run those lands. Even if New Hampshire
or Missouri or any other state wanted to grant the federal government some land.
Let's say you're in Arizona and the Grand Escalante Arizona Nevada area grant Escalante Desert
area, which by the way, has tons of valuable anthracite in it,
and when Bill Clinton locked it up, that then gave the Lippo Group the
world's share of usable anthracite at that point, percentage wise. Strangely enough,
the Lippo Group was heavily invested in getting Bill Clinton elected. I know,
right, totally shocking, but that's John Huang and all those very very not
corrupt cats in any way whatsoever there were going to the Clintons. How could
they have been corrupt? We all know, we came, we saw he
died. You know what I was saying, Just ask Ron Brown. But
anyway, by the way, this show is not sponsored by Ron Brown Airlines.
That would be kind of coolish and sick. But my Liberty Conspiracy show
is sponsored by Ron Brown Airlines. So you know, just keep that in
mind next time you're traveling through the Crimean region. But anyway, so the
United States government, the only other type of land that they can run our
military garrisons right now. The other portion of this is there's not supposed to
be a standing army in the United States. And I wrote an article recently
for MRCTV and I mentioned this on Liberty Conspiracy. If you look at the
California Constitution, it's right there on the first page. They mentioned that the
militia when called to duty within the states, they're supposed to be just the
citizens of the states. And then when they're called up, they can be
called up by the governor, when they're called up by the president under constitutional
declaration of war by the Congress, the president can call them up then it's
up to them to decide do I want to fight or not fight? Right,
there's not supposed to be a standing army. And one of the provisions
of the Constitution, if you look at the Bill of Rights, you know
you go through one, two three, Oh, there's not supposed to be
any housing mandated on us. Housing of soldiers, right, no quartering of
soldiers. Well, what are we doing all around the world? We're forced
to quarter soldiers, not in our own homes, but everywhere everywhere during a
time of no declared war. It's doubly insulting. It's like two two two
insults in one. W your pleasure, W your fun. So this story
about the interstate highway system can clearly be unraveled, even for people when I'm
in a lecture hall, and even for students, you can say, well,
let's take a look at that. Let's look at this in a positive
way, and see we can derive some long standing information from this that we
can understand historically and at least constitutionally, To say, what about the game
rules that they swear they're going to abide by to leave a preposition dangling,
And so it's very important to remember that even if they claim they're going to
be doing that for defensive purposes. They can't just take that land and say
this is for defense because there's no declared war. And then they can't claim
that they're military garrisons. These hundreds and thousands of miles of roads, that's
a military garrison. Come on, well, I mean that's just fatuous,
right, So the interstate highway system is not constitutional in any way. And
to draw out a little bit more information, this is quite interesting. You
can actually find this at anti war dot com. And that's going to get
us into our next subject as we round off the third hour of the David
Knights Show. But before we go into that ex subject, that added subject,
which is not extra it's all planned. But before we go into that,
I want to mention get ready to lay down those comments at Rockfinn and
rumble about this, and you know, if you have some different opinions,
feel free, that's great. I love to get the information. The audience
at the David Knight Show is just so kind and profoundly well educated, really
looking forward to that. And this isn't like blowing smoke or anything like that.
Besides, if I were blowing smoke, that would you know global warming,
climate change mcguffin. But anyway, anti war dot Com actually released this
one in two thousand and six. Sam Koritz writes this, and I think
it's exceptionally good. If you want to check it out, I'll tweet this
as well. So it is defense highways. It was originally from the economists
and they reprinted this one. Highways began expanding rapidly after President Dwight Eisenhow fifty
years ago this month, that's two thousand and six, signed the Federal Federal
Aid Highway Act of nineteen fifty six. These should have been impeached for that.
Of course, the Congress passed it, so they wouldn't have impeached him.
Let's continue, which committed the government to invest heavily in a national network
of interstates. The network that he authorized was often referred to as the National
System of Interstate and Defense Highways. The generals thought that better roads would make
it easier to move military convoys around in case of attack, as well as
to evacuate big cities in a hurry. The overpasses were made high enough so
that ballistic missiles could be transported beneath them. Though the atom bombs and invaders
never came. Life in America would never again be the same. The Interstates
replaced social interaction and serendipity with an efficiency, and some have lamented the change
ever since. By nineteen sixty two, John Steinbeck, of all people,
was writing about the disappearance of antique stores, factory outlets, and roadside stands
selling squash juice. He complained that the new roads would make it possible to
drive from New York to California without seeing a single thing. What mister Steinbeck
didn't mention, of course he was a socialist, was that it also would
give levers of power to the federal government to claim that states should get highway
money and then withhold that money if the states didn't mandate that they're oh,
public schools wonderful institutions that have been very, very good forcing ideology on kids.
If their public schools didn't conform to Title nine, if their colleges didn't
conform, if they didn't do certain things regarding oh, I don't know,
maybe collection of medical data. But we'll continue, he writes. The Interstates
paved the way. He complained that the new roads would make it possible to
drive from New York to California without seeing a single thing. The interstates paved
the way for fast food chains such as McDonald's, Burger King, and Kentucky
Fried Chicken, which set up shop near the access ramps. Besides changing the
way that motorists eat, the new highways also transformed the ways in which companies
moved their goods. One reason that Walmart became a cost cutting behemoth was because
it exploited the logistical advantages of the new system faster than its competitors did.
Besides linking distant places to each other, the system has encircled many urban areas
with belt ways, which let motorists move between surrounding suburbs without having to bother
with the cities. Once commuters began whizzing on a good day around those beltways,
centrifugal force did the rest, propelling office space, staff, and tax
revenues away from the center. The big question now is whether Americans are willing
to keep spending more than eighty billion a year that was in two thousand and
six of their tax money to maintain and upgrade the system. Clifford Winston at
the Brooking Institution has tried to measure the benefits reaped from improved logistics, and
the Brookings is fairly you know, Rhino milk Toe's deep state type organization.
Although this is clearly an imprecise exercise. He reckons that government financed highway investments
have run into steeply diminishing returns since the nineteen eighties. Well again based on
just purely economics. This is one of the keys that I try to teach
in class. Valuation is subjective, so no one can say that anything that
the government does holds any value because the people who are forced to pay for
it are now having their valuation replaced by political valuation and threats. They can't
choose, they can't show what they value. They can't do what Frederick Bastia
said, spend their money the way they want to spend their money on what
they want. It's being redirected and the politicians who are redirecting it, they're
not using their own money, so you can't say that the politicians care.
And this is one of the things when it comes to these highways. We
don't know any government institution building the highways right, but at least locally that
is something that at least you can sort of say, I could escape a
bad system. One of the things I want to mention is that the taking
of property through eminent domain is something that is in the Constitution, but it's
highly immoral and and of course it shows us the canard that we are served
with, the very idea that government is established to protect our property and our
natural rights from encroachments by others. Oh, we'll get the kiddy cat in
the studio. Hey, Kittycati, how you doing. She might want to
come up on the camera, I think, But sorry, buddy. So
maybe she wants some tuna fish for Christmas. She might like that. Yeah
you want tuna, don't you. Yeah, there you go. So eminent
domain, the taking of property is obviously something that undercuts the very so called
rationale of government, based on John Locke's philosophy of the Second Treatise of Government,
written in sixteen seventy but not really published till a couple of years later
during the time of the Scottish Rebellion, very big and he actually fled to
Sweden for a little while, to Holland for a little while. And the
idea that the government can take your property for the greater good is similar to
the idea that the government can trace you, track you, force you to
take an injection, so called for the greater good. The idea that the
government can curtail your speech rights because you're spouting misinformation. They can do that
for the greater good. Of course, they will decide what is the greater
good. They will decide what is misinformation, will decide what is sickness,
and they will decide what level of emergency that is. And predicated beneath all
that is the idea that they already can take your money to fund all of
that. So one of the things that Richard Epstein has mentioned, and he's
a professor, I think he might be a closer retirement or retired now.
In his book Takings, Richard Epstein mentions that even the idea of taking non
property but regulating your business, telling him that you can or can't do this
or that with your business, that you must open your doors to this,
that you must include this, you must put this ramp in. Those are
all takings, taking of your time, taking of your energy, taking of
your financial resources, whatever it might be, and those should be compensated based
on the government's constitution. The problem is, of course, the constitution leads
it up to the government to claim that it is so called just compensation.
Well, what's that means? Turned out to another story outside of this story
out of Austin, Texas, outside of this interstate debate, which clearly gives
us some evidence and I think some good historical information to remember that the interstate
highway system is not constitutional, it's not moral, and it directs money away
from where the money would normally go. Now, let's turn to what I
think is a very interesting story from Steve Lado. He's a lawyer on YouTube
and he's got a really fun channel, very interesting besides the fact that he
has these really neat toy cars behind him, like car car models of like
old Mustangs and things like that, old Pontiacs. Check this out. There's
a story about how the court says a car can no longer be paid for,
a can no longer be told for unpaid tickets. And keep in mind
what we discussed torque law and government running the roads. People often say,
well, Gardner, how can roads be built if government doesn't do it?
Well, that again, that goes up against history. Thomas de Lorenzo,
in his great book How Capitalism Saved America mentions I'll give it an approximation.
I won't read it precisely. I don't have the book right next to me,
but he mentions that there, and it's in my book Live Free or
Die as well. Something like eleven hundred miles of roads within the first few
years of the I believe colonial post constitutional era were private by that time.
Already the very toll house cookies came from toll roads and toll bridges. If
you and I are not capable of being able to coordinate to build a road
to get to each other, then I guess I can't build a driveway to
get the car from the government run road to my garage. I must not
be able to do that. I might not even be able to do a
front path to my front door. I don't even know how I'm going to
do a door. I don't even know how private businesses build parking lots or
have air conditioning to make it more comfortable for their customers. I don't know
why those parking lots are better managed in the wintertime than government run roads.
Isn't that strange. It's almost as if the private companies have an incentive to
do a good job and government doesn't because it has the monopoly on the legal
use of aggressive force and can take our money for doing really bad jobs on
the roads, and of course bridges that are unsafe. Now, let's talk
about how they manage parking and government run parking areas. Here is Steve Lado
with a very interesting case. Oh, I got to give us the volume
here rules on something in an unusual way, and then I look at it
and go but wait a second, why did I think of that before Chris
sent me out? In CBS news, court finds towing of cars unpaid tickets
unconstitutional. And as soon as I read the headline, I thought, wait
a second, that is kind of a strange situation that you have unpaid tickets.
They can tow your car, but there's other things that you can do
in this life where you don't pay fines and they don't come and just take
your stuff. So why would a car be any different? And interestingly,
when the state tried to defend this, the city that is that, you
know, try to defend this, they had a hard time coming up with
a good argument. So towing cars that have accrued unpaid parking tickets without a
warrant a common practice in San Francisco and many other places, violates the California
Constitution, the California Court of Appeal decided Friday. So that is towing the
car without a warrant. So the court saying, if you think you're entitled
to take possession of that car, go get a warrant. See what the
court says, the city implemented a practice of towing illegally and safely parked cars
if they had five or more unpaid parking tickets and the owner had not responded
within twenty one days of issue. So, in other words, they don't
come across a car that's illegally parked. They're about the ticket and they go,
wait a second, this has got unpaid tickets. No, they come
across the car. It's legally parked, everything's good, but it's got unpaid
tickets attributed to it. After a car has towed, car owners must provide
proof that they've paid the outstanding ticket. So let's just pause it right there,
everyone and say, what is illegally parked? Right? This is the
problematic assumption beneath this because they're saying okay, he says, uh, mister
Lado, this is a car that is not illegally parked, and yet they're
towing it away because they have unpaid tickets. Well, what's the predicate for
the unpaid tickets? The idea that the government can run that land and they
can control who can park where, when and how well, some people might
say, well, it's a city guard. You've got to manage it somehow,
right, Well, who's going to manage it? This opens up what's
called the tragedy of the commons. How many parking spaces are going to be
on the main street? How wide will the main street be? Who's going
to get their bread buttered? Will there be a parking lot that the government
manages near this business or that business? Will there be only this many parking
spots near this area of the city. How's that going to be managed?
What will the rates be? Should the rates be lower? How long will
the parking meters last? All these things are then argued about, just like
policies over government run schools. What's going to the content going to be,
how long will they be open? How many students per teacher will be the
ratio? All these types of things open up what's called the tragedy of the
commons. When there's no private property. Then people can't manage how that property
is going to be used. Do we want it to be for parking,
Do we want to be green space. Do we want that park to be
a baseball baseball diamond or a football field? We want that park to be
managed this way or that way? And that goes back into the government claiming
those western lands. In some cases, more than seventy five percent of some
states is government federal government run. Why can't the people, at least in
those states decide and then break it down even further and get it to real
valuation being revealed through private property. And some people say, well, guard
that might mean that natural spaces aren't taken care of. Well, that's not
my prerogative. If I like natural spaces, I should be willing to cough
up some money for natural spaces and keep them going if I think that that
has a market viability. Otherwise I'm imposing my will on somebody else who actually
could reflect his interests. Now, where this gets warped, of course,
is once you get the government getting involved in making these decisions, the biggest
players will then gain the system to try to get the government to do what
they want them to do to give them advantages, so you have tragedy of
the commons, everyone arguing, and then the most vocal people, the people
connected to the government, will then engage in rent seeking, and we're back
where we started. So this is quite interesting to see and it's going to
be very interesting to see how this case plays out from mister Lado, but
I think it shows you how even in these situations where people say, well,
that's not fair that they're towing away, how can they do this?
Don't they have to get a warrant? Well, yes they do, and
that is a big facet of it constitutionally, But beyond that, we can
learn about how this problem arose because the government runs the property and they're trying
to manage that property and it's not possible to manage it the way. Everybody
wants tickets, and in that case they can get the car back, but
the tickets go unpaid. The city would then sell the cars at junk auctions,
which is pretty much what they would sell for because people don't know what
these cars even run. We don't know. Court found that the practice violates
the Fourth Amendment, which protects against unreasonable searches and seizures without warrants, the
city argued. Then here's the thing. This is the city's argument. The
city argued that their towing practice qualified for an exception from the warrant because the
cars were a threat to public health. All right, everybody, let's yeah,
that helps turn the government frowns upside down big time. Now, everybody
get ready with your comments, and if you've been commenting, feel free if
you want to repost any of those. If I've missed anything, I'm Gardner
Goldsmith filling in for David Knight, and again, thank you so much for
everyone in the David Knight family being so wonderful, and Travis hats off to
you if you're watching, for being such a great help on the tech side.
Tony Arterburn as well, thank you, thank you, thank you and
all of you in the chat at Rockfin and Rumble. And first off,
right off the bat, I want to face the camera and thank MJ.
Nichols, who just donated a little while ago inside Rockfinn. And thank you
so much, MJ. Especially while I'm here sort of trying to you know,
do a good job on the good ship David Knight show, the Ship
of Freedom. Thank you for coming aboard I'll be your purser and uh,
we'll see you on the Lido deck. But MJ tip fifty dollars, isn't
that great? And MJ says, Hi, guard, thank you so much
for filling in for David. I almost think he should schedule a week off
once per quarter since you and Tony so seamlessly fill in when needed. Oh
yeah, well, I thank you so much, and I agree with you
about Tony in particular. That's that's where I'm agreeing. Tony's gonna be on
on Thursday. And oh boy, thank you so much, MJ. That
just fills my heart. I thank you, thank you, thank you.
And Merry Christmas. Just awesome. Wow, it's great. Thank you so
much. And remember everybody, if we want to go to the Davidnightshow dot
com, you can find all the great items that are over there. And
Brian Brian deb Cartney two to two viewers in one says where our gopher and
doc that's right, yes, and Jason Barker in the house nights of the
Storm. Check out their website. They've got the schedules of so many good
people. I'm honored to be a part of. That's, you know,
seeing the schedule at Nights of Thestorm dot Com. Jason says, uh.
He says they're talking about farming towns. Uh. Brian de McCartney say,
Guard you always do a great job. Thank you, thank you so much.
And I'd be interested to see Harps is on from Australia. Is I'd
be interested in finding out the Australian perspective with those highways because I got to
go through Queensland traveling east from Charliville and I was wondering about that myself.
You know, Charlieville's way out of the bush and uh, the people own
so much land there and they do their they do their cattle ranching with helicopters.
They didn't have schools. They did the School of Radio. It was
radio schools where the teacher and the kids would commune kate on radios. When
I was there, Now it's the Internet. They had the Royal Flying Doctor
Service and they've actually been novels written about that because they couldn't drive people to
hospitals, but they did have these highways that they seem to have built.
And you can see that sort of thing in Mad Max, you know,
Road Warrior, that sort of thing. Harps actually right here says what they
did here. Jason Harps is in Australia, folks, if you're not familiar
with Harp's great guy, Merry Christmas buddy. What they did here, Jason
was killed the towns by moving the highways well away from the towns, almost
killing them. The move in immigrants into the towns, then move immigrants into
the town So it's a Ponzi scheme. Yeah, and we know here in
the United States, Harps. I don't know if you've got to see some
of my liberty conspiracy shows, but the Center for Immigration Studies and I wrote
a piece on this for MRCTV. The Center for Immigration Studies discovered that the
Biden administration had given at least two hundred thousand migrants and app on their phones
to get flights inside the United States anywhere they wanted to travel. And just
recently something that I'm going to be mentioning a little bit in just a couple
of minutes thrown around off the show, they've discovered that the TSA is allowing
people who have been arrested for being illegal immigrants to use their arrest warrants as
IDs at the TSA checkpoints. Meanwhile, they force us to engage in the
Hegelian dialectic of getting groped scanned or facial scanned. And people don't seem to
be upset about that, but they're upset about Right AID doing facial scans.
Well, you don't have to shop at right AID. You got to keep
giving the TSA your money. How let's get some folks to open up the
cheer towards talking about freedom. Right, we'll do that. We'll just keep
working with a smile on our faces and keep heading in that direction, right,
MJ. Nichols, Steve Swan, Yes, yes, And everybody's wishing
great health and good relaxation to David. Let's see how nine thousand, Watson
says, I remember seeing adverts for a world license. How nine thousand is
that rumble? If you want to communicate with how nine thousand? Absolutely?
And he says eat does it bugs? Yes? So right? And also
Narroway Narrowgate Ministries there, Yes, Narrowai Narrowgate Ministries has noticed the chip sinking
on mister Lado's bookcase. Yes, and Honor Seeker writes, very very well,
and I'm so glad you mentioned this. Frederick Bossier's the law which is
I think one of the most beautifully put together logical analysis of the difference between
statute and natural law. The opening line of Frederick Basstay's The Law, published
in the eighteen thirties eighteen forties is the law perverted exclamation point. And what
he means is they have taken the idea of natural law, and everybody assumes
and everybody gets this normalcy bias. They call politicians lawmakers. No, there's
one lawmaker. He made us natural law interpersonal relations based on biblical truisms.
We don't need people telling us this is the law. No, I think
I get it. You're a person who's been put into a tax funded office
that's claiming power over people. And even if you say, mister politician,
that you're there to protect us, well, where are you getting the money
to fund the police and the just so called justice system? Where's that?
How's that just that I have to keep paying for your justice system. How
about we pare it down to the most basic moral level and see that the
only way you can operate morally is by removing your force through the state.
Stop telling people they have to pay for their own protection. You're a mafioso.
Leave me alone. How about that? Well, folks, let's see
how this manifests. Now the remainder of this program, everybody, we're going
to touch based on some breaking stories. We're going to look at a number
of big ones that might get kind of dark. We're going to talk about
what's going on in the Middle East, and we're going to talk about perhaps
how mister Biden, by the way, who told us don't forget decency,
is on the ballot. Mister Biden wants to continue funding the slaughter of innocent
people in the Middle East. So let's take the opportunity right now to relax,
listen to some of David Knight's great music and compositions and video. Come
back with unfortunately some of the heavy, heavy information to keep informed about what's
going on with the United States warmongers. You're listening to the David Knight Show.
Whether you're feeling like the booze or bluegrass ads radio has you covered.
Check out a wide variety of channels on our app at apsradio dot com.
Get ready, everybody, it's time. Unfortunately, we got to start talking
about something that I think requires a bit of a theme, and for that
we're gonna hear from a guy whose voice at least can remind us of the
great wonders of humanity when people put their minds to stopping warfare. Edwin Starr,
Wow, boy, I can't imagine what it would be like to see
that guy live. And by the way, about that Andrea Andrea but Chelli
concert. I got to see Andrea but Chilli had been he had a virus
and so we had to postpone by about two weeks. Came back, you
know, really quickly. I thought it was going to be a six month
wait, but came back within two weeks to come back to Boston. He
literally the first time they were going to play a couple of weeks ago.
The perform he was going to perform in the orchestra would play. Uh.
Andrea and his wife came out and they apologized, and she said, you
know, we've been here. We were all there in the audience, but
they just couldn't perform. And she said, we're so sorry. We waited
a little bit after the start time, but we want to let you know.
And Andrea. She was out on her own. Andrea, you could
see his hand on the staircase. She goes, oh. She looks over
and says, oh, he wants to come up. So he came up
and spoke and he told people, he said, I'm very sorry, I
just don't think I'll be able to do the job that I want to do
for you, which was just remarkable. What a noble, noble spirit.
The man of course was blinded after he had many years of sight, and
shows the incredible strength of a man who believes that God has reasons for things
and wants you to answer these things, and showed so many people what they
can do themselves. So he came back and last Wednesday I got to go
down with my sister and it was amazing. You could see that at certain
points that man with that voice allowed himself to extend notes and push the notes
even further than he might normally have, because I think he looked at it
as showing that virus whatever it was he had, who was boss. And
he really showed an amazing, amazing power of recovery. So any of you
who might be hurting right now, whether it's financially, emotionally with your family,
whatever, just remember the spirit in you. Well, you were created
by God. You were created by a reason for a reason, multiple reasons,
and part of that is to show others what you can do. There's
nobility in the struggle, so please keep it in mind. I'm just reminded
of that when I think about that amazing voice of Edwin Starr. Now let's
look at fighting fighting wars, all right, so let me give you some
of this information here. This is of course pretty big. So Boy,
this is rough. This one came out on the twenty first, but I
want to mention it. A u N report says over five hundred and seventy
thousand people are starving in Gaza. One in four Palestinians living in the Gaza.
Over five hundred and seventy thousand people are starving due to the Israeli siege,
according to a report using data from the UN and other aid agencies that
was released Thursday. Boy and David communicated with me last night, sent me
the text of some of the things that seem to be cropping up. I'm
looking for more information to confirm this of conflicts between Iranian forces and Israeli forces.
Five hundred and seventy thousand people. But hey, we have heard the
half a million children have died. I mean, that's more children than died
in Hiroshima, and you know, is the price worth it? I think
this is a very hard choice. But the price, we think the price
is worth it just amazing, amazing. I don't know if they ever learn,
they get so wrapped up in their worlds. This is the integrated food
security phase classification said the Israeli Onslaan and Gaza has quote caused catastrophic levels of
acute food insecurity across the Gaza strip. But folks, there's more. So
I want to show this to you right now, and it ties into how
we open the program. I'm going to give this to You're going to give
that to you in just a minute. First, Bethelhem, you might have
been seeing this trending. Bethelhem's bombed out Nativity sends message, is really airstrikes
killed dozens in Christmas bloodshed. So here we go anti war dot Com linking
to Al Jazeera. If you're listening and not viewing Bethlehem's bombed out Nativity scripture,
the sculpture sends a powerful message. The scene of a devastated Nativity cave
symbolizes the plight of Christ's family and Palestinians. Now Bethlehem occupied West Bank this
year, Bethlehem is somber and quiet. There is no Christmas tree and there
are no holiday lights or tourists to see them. Instead, the city of
Jesus' birth, which is in the middle of a war zone, is marking
Christmas with a powerful and poignant message solidarity with Palestine. The Holy Family Cave
is a sculpture that depicts a harrowing tableau, a bombed out version of the
traditional Nativity Cave, which many Christians traditionally believe is where Jesus was born in
Bethlehem. It is the site now of the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem.
The new mural dras a comparison with the journey of Christ and his family
when they had to flee Bethlehem under an oppressive ruler to Egypt before returning to
Nazareth to millennia ago. Surrounded by rubble and barbed wire, the Virgin Mary
embraces the baby Jesus while Joseph embraces her, offering solace. Well, let's
see what's happening on Christmas. As this comes from archive dot i s originally
from Reuters. Somebody had to archive it. December twenty fourth, Israeli airstrikes
killed dozens, Gaza officials say in Christmas bloodshed. Pope Francis lamented the war
in the Holy Land, one of the few good things he's done recently where
Palestinians. Palestinian health officials said air strikes killed at least seventy eight people on
Christmas Eve and one of the Gaza Strip's deadliest nights in Israel's eleven week old
battle with Hamas. Israeli strikes that began hours before midnight persisted into Christmas Day.
On Monday, local residents in Palestinian media said Israel stepped up air and
ground shelling against Al Bigi, Al Berege and Central Gaza. Oh, let's
just go to the south. I'm sorry, they're bombing that too. At
least seventy people were killed in an Israeli airstrike. Oh, they must have
all been terrorists. Oh that term terrorist? How do you know they were
terrorists? Did you try them? Did you extradite them? No, we
declared war, declared war against the civilians. No. Well, you've killed
maybe twenty thousand people, five hundred and seventy thousand starving. But what's perhaps
the larger game here? What else is going on? Well? I want
to turn to this. This is a very interesting piece about recent developments with
Yemen, the Gulf, geopolitics, and energy. Your gas prices are going
to be skyrocketing. The brutal war that Israel is waging on Gaza is expanding
day by day into a regional conflict as other countries are pledging to support the
Palestinian people amid what experts from the United Nations have referred to as a potential
genocide. In December, the political forces that govern the majority of Yemen announced
that they would attack any ships going through the Red Sea that are planning on
providing supplies to Israel. This has massive economic implications because it means that ships
will have to be rerooted and instead go south around the Cape of Good Hope
in South Africa and instead enter the Mediterranean through Western Europe. Iran has also
called for blocking off the Strait of Gibraltar in order to prevent supplies from being
sent to Israel. What this means is that resistance forces in the so called
Middle East, or a better term is West Asia, are now attempting a
naval blockade of Israel to block supplies from being sent to Israel in order to
stop this brutal war on Gaza. Israel is very reliant on imports of energy
and food, and most of those imports go through three main ports, two
on the Mediterranean, including the port of Ashdode which is quite close to Gaza,
and also the Haifa port in the north, and also on the south,
Israel has the port of Elot, which connects to the Red Sea going
through the Straits of Tehran, which are controlled by Saudi Arabia. The resistance
forces that governed Yemen are not able to block the two major ports on the
Mediterranean, but they are able to prevent ships from transiting through the Bave and
Mendeb Strait, which connects the Arabian Sea to the Gulf of Aden into the
Red Sea. All Right, that's key. I just want to make sure
that you know a lot of times information flows very very quickly on a program.
So I'm gonna I've retweeted this and I hope you'll check this out.
I just want to pause it there so you can see that map. Of
course, you see the Mediterraneans. Who has Canal Or, Arabian Sea,
Gulf of Dan, Red Sea, Saudi Arabia, Sudan, Egypt, cutter
Oman Yemen. There's Yemen, and they are really causing a lot of problems
for many of the warmongering states and their oil supplies. And I say that,
you know understanding that that's going to raise energy prices. But the United
States involvement over there has been It's not excusable to say, well, the
United States has a vital interest in making sure that the waters flow over there.
I don't have a vital interest in forcing my neighbor to pay for ships,
to pay for some sort of plan or strategy or tactics on the day
to day or hour to hour to try to manage some ocean area thousands of
miles away from here, regardless of what might happen. I don't control that.
That would be like saying, well, there's a gas station in New
Hampshire, and I want to make sure that the flow of gas is always
going on there. So I'm going to make sure that nobody gets in the
way of that gas station. And not too many people selled out. I
don't know own that gas station. I'm not in that area. It's not
it's not my interest. And this is all geopolitics, it's all government run
actions, very very dangerous. I also want to mention to people inside Twitter,
thank you so much for tuning into the David Knight Show. Rattlesnake George,
you can now comment as we go live at Twitter slash x. You'll
see it on the right side of your screen if you're watching on a computer
and your browser. On the right side, you'll see the little icon of
David Knight's face showing that we're going live. And Rattlesnake George posted a very
good comment a while back saying Patrick Henry had to threaten rebellion against Washington to
give us the Bill of Rights and Daryl d A R A L. I
hope I'm reading that right, Daryl. Hope to David, hope you had
a merry Christmas. David at Daryl, I hope I've been able to pass
on that upbeat sentiment and merry Christmas to you. I hope you are enjoying
things with loved ones. And I want to also thank all the folks inside
Rockfinn nineteen eighty says Israel's war with the innocent people in Gaza while pretending to
be fighting their own, created barbarian threat called Hesbolah. Yeah, and of
course we know that net Yahoo and even George Bush indirectly helped promote Hamas to
be the political rulers of Gaza. And I'm still waiting for these high in
their horses, self appointed elites of people like so called representative and there's no
way that any political entity can be representative of anyone. Congresswoman Stefanik, why
is she so upset about what's happening on college campuses regarding people criticizing Jewish states,
or not criticizing Jewish states, but maybe criticizing Jewish people. Can she
not see that calling up the heads of these universities and saying, why aren't
you more outspoken about these people who are echoing the fascist Nazis of the past.
Can she not grasp the power imbalance there? Does she not have a
clue that she is calling people up and she is an agent of the biggest,
most powerful government on the history of in the history of the planet.
She's telling these people answer to me, and she has the gall to try
to bring in echoes of what of fascism to say, you've got to stop
these people being critical of the state of Israel, which, of course they
pass that resolution that somehow even Hasidic Jews in New York. This is the
one thing I would agree with with Jerry Nadler, who represents a lot of
acidic Jews from his district in New York. So called represents. You can't
mathematically represent anybody as a government official. You got one person, but the
other person might disagree. Oh there's representation for you. It's immediately negated,
and somebody else might change his mind in five minutes. Who knows, right.
You can only do this. You can only represent your own interests through
your own private actions in the marketplace. Anybody telling you they're going to represent
you while they're trying to represent somebody else is impossible. It's ridiculous. It's
another of the canards that they sell people for the promotion of the state,
that term representative. That's obnoxious. But anyway, it is amusing because Congressman
Nadler mentioned, I've got a lot of Hasidic Jews in my in my district.
They're very critical of the State of Israel. They understand the difference between
people who are practicing Hebrew Jewish people and people who are just Zionists, who
are secular Jews, and so it was very interesting to see that. I
think it's also interesting to see that so many people like Douglas Murray and others
are so willing to adopt that mantle, as we mentioned King Charles before,
of literally extermination to protect the state. You can remove the state of what
is it killing to protect the state? Is that enough to remind people who
say that they're you know, supporting the future of the Jews, right murdering
people, innocent people to supposedly get at bad guys. And I've mentioned this
in my philosophy classes. To the students, I said, look, the
key giving us this argument that the Israeli defense forces are perfectly sanctioned, it's
perfectly acceptable, even though it's tough. They often give us these ice.
Well, you know this is the way it is. It's war, oh
I see, thank you for ending the conversation with a euphemism that means nothing.
It's war. Who's causing the war? What's causing the war? What
forces have been around for decades, growing and growing like NATO, taking people's
private property, causing violent reactions. And as I mentioned before, the Israelis
killed three hostages recently, and they have argued by mistake, they tried to
rescue these people. They said, oh, we couldn't distinguish them. We
just couldn't distinguish them from the Hummas fighters. I don't know how that happened,
you mean, just like you couldn't do it on October seventh either.
I get it, so they said, and I can actually show you.
They actually say, well, you know, it's what happens. I've got
CNN. Let me show you CNN. And they're totally cold way of handling
this with the typical newsreader nonsense where they tell us, well, yes,
it's they put on those sad faces. It's very, very tragic. The
IDEF says that it mistakenly destroyed. Doyd killed these people and they were you
know, they they were to be rescued, but there was just nothing we
could do about it. So let me see if I can show this to
you here and call this up. Yeah, I think I've got it all
right, Yeah, okay, I get this geared up in the system.
I think this is the CNN bit. And oh and by the way,
don't forget as we reminded you, as Joe Biden said, decency is on
the ballot, you know, so that's whether it's hunter Biden or warmongering.
It's you know, so here we go. Let me see if I've got
this for you. Hostages as a threat during their ground operations, their bodies
were brought back to Israel. At least two of the hostages where Israeli is
kidnapped from farms on October seventh. The identity of the third hostage has not
been released. The IDEA says it has deep little more for the incident and
that immediate lessons have been learned and are being passed on to truths in the
future. Okay, so again they used the passive voice. Lessons have been
learned, lives have been lost. No, who committed the crimes? Who
killed these people? Well, you got to understand guard You know, they
were hostages, and it's perfectly okay to go into these areas. And even
if you have to kill some innocent civilians to get at the bad guys,
you got to get at the bad guys, right, And these were hostages.
Well, what is a fact about the Israeli Hummas Palestinian relationship? For
years, the Israeli government has taken women and children from Gaza and held them
without charge, without habeas corpus for months, sometimes over a year. So
let's look at it this way. If we were to flip the tables,
and again I'll get to the final point on this. As a free market
libertarian anarchist, Christian anarchist, I'll get to my final moral point here on
human interaction. But if you were to flip the tables here, flip the
coin, would it be acceptable for agents of Hamas to say, well,
Israel has been holding Palestinians without charge. They've been holding our people hostage,
So it's perfectly acceptable for us on October seventh to bust in and kill a
few innocent people as we try to get at our guys and get them free.
What's the difference? What is the moral difference? They're totally equivalent.
They're both incorrect, but they're totally equivalent. And then the final point is
this. I can't come up with the answers there, but one answer I
can't come up with goes like this. In philosophy class when I teach philosophy,
right, I'll say, okay, here's a great example of one of
the dumb things that PBS government funding tax funding does. They have this thing
called crash course philosophy. With this, I think the guy. Kid's name
is green or something like that. They're two brothers and they're awful, really
terrible. And a lot of teachers turn to these things because they're easy to
show to students while they sit there and have a snack or something. I
don't know. They don't they don't pair them apart. They don't get the
kidstologically analyze these things. So they have this example, it's the jungle warlord
example. It's supposed to present this philosophical moral quandary when it's not a moral
quandary, but they try to make it such because it's group think, it's
for the greater good, it's consequentialism, it's public health. So they say,
you're in the jungle and you get stopped by a warlord, and the
warlord takes twenty of you, has a gun, pulls you away and says,
okay, puts the gun in. You can't turn it on the warlord.
You got to point it at one of these people, and says,
okay, you have to kill one person. If you don't, I'm going
to kill all the other of those eighteen people. And so the students are
saying, what do we do. Some of the students get it. They
say, well, for the greater good to save those people, wouldn't it
be okay? Is it acceptable to kill that one? Is it acceptable for
that one to die, to be killed, to use the passive voice for
an intentional reason. Well, then you say, who's killing You're killing you,
You are taking a life. First of all, practically you don't even
know whether or not this warlord is telling the truth. And even if he
were, you are making the decision. You may think you're under duress,
but philosophically, it's not him. He's not the one. You can't be
absolved. You're the one pulling that trigger. You're the one. You're the
one killing an innocent person. They're the ones in the IDF, They're the
ones in the Hamas superstructure that kill innocent people because they think it's for the
greater good. They're the ones in government who take your rights because they think
it's for the greater good. They think that they're protecting more people by locking
you down, calling your business non essential, putting money into damaging, destructive,
deadly mr Anda jabs. The very development of all these viruses massively immoral,
unconstitutional, would never happen in a private realm. They're the ones who
are doing this, and if you participate, you are culpable. So the
answer is you don't do anything, and no, you can't point it at
the guy. You let him kill you rather than be a party to his
evil, because there's a greater good. You do not let people coerce you
into doing evil. And at every level, even tiny levels, when we
pay our taxes, so called taxes, we know that that military industrial complex
which has given tons of money now to the formerly near bankrupt Nikki Haley because
Lockheed Martin brought her on their board and I believe had uh former Senator Kelly
aod while she was also on the board of Fox News and now, yeah,
she's running for governor of New Hampshire, isn't that quaint? So she
was promoting more weapons to go to Ukraine while she was on the board of
Fox. She was on Fox promoting something for which she sat on another board.
And this is the land of the free. The corporatized fascist, US
war mongering defense industrial complex mixed with the pharmaceutical complex and the big media complex,
and of course the fascist like system of government payoffs to state and local
politicians. We can break away from that. If we represent moral substance,
key moral substance, and we keep trying to promote that, whether it be
reminding people about the rules that they promise under the Constitution are going on and
beyond that the way Lessander Spooner would, the way people looking at the Bible
would. So the final thing I'll mention is we can't come up with answers
about all this stuff. But one thing I can say is I will not
force my neighbor to pay for what I think is the right thing to do.
There. I don't have to implicate my neighbor into this life or death
decision. And I shouldn't be implicated. I shouldn't be in that jungle with
the warlord telling me you've got to take out one of these people for the
sake of everybody. That is not morality. That's consequentialist philosophy. That's devilish,
of course it is, because it negates the value of the individual.
Thank you so much for watching everybody coming up to the end of the program
today, and I got in touch with James Bouvard. His new book is

More funding half a billion dollars for Ukraine Unconstitutional, more surveillance of people through
the NDAA, funding to let soldiers go across state lines to get abortions,
to pay them to do that, not just to let them do that.
