00:00:21.039 --> 00:00:29.760
Using free speech to free minds.
You're listening to the David Night Show.

2
00:00:47.479 --> 00:00:51.359
As the clock strikes thirteen, it's
Friday, the twenty second of December,

3
00:00:51.880 --> 00:00:55.960
Year of Our Lord, twenty twenty
three, and we say Year of our

4
00:00:55.960 --> 00:01:00.000
Lord, and this is the time
we celebrate the birth of our Lord.

5
00:01:00.679 --> 00:01:02.799
And so that's what we're going to
do today. We're going to talk We're

6
00:01:02.799 --> 00:01:03.719
going to have some news at the
beginning here, but we're going to talk

7
00:01:03.760 --> 00:01:11.079
a lot about Christmas and culture in
the context of politics and government and tradition.

8
00:01:12.079 --> 00:01:15.840
What does culture mean? Really?
We need to think about that.

9
00:01:17.239 --> 00:01:22.200
You know, what does it mean
when you have a bacteria culture or you

10
00:01:22.239 --> 00:01:26.280
cultivate a plant. It's something that
you grow. You do it consciously.

11
00:01:26.400 --> 00:01:29.640
So we're going to talk about that, and we're going to consciously talk about

12
00:01:29.640 --> 00:02:07.040
that. We'll be right back.
Stay with us. Well, as I

13
00:02:07.079 --> 00:02:12.719
mentioned yesterday, Christmas time and we
listen to some of the classic song it's

14
00:02:12.759 --> 00:02:15.240
not the ones about rootolph and rocking
around a Christmas tree or this or that,

15
00:02:15.319 --> 00:02:19.639
you know, and the nostalgia is
fine, you know, that's in

16
00:02:19.680 --> 00:02:23.800
and of itself, it's fine as
long as as long as that's not your

17
00:02:23.919 --> 00:02:27.800
entire life. I mean, we
stop and think about it. What if

18
00:02:27.800 --> 00:02:30.560
your entire life was just looking backwards
at things that you had done. You

19
00:02:30.599 --> 00:02:35.360
don't have to anticipate in anything in
the future or what is happening now.

20
00:02:35.479 --> 00:02:40.199
You just mope about what has gone
and passed. And at this time of

21
00:02:40.280 --> 00:02:44.520
year, because there's so much nostalgia
and Christmas songs, we can fall into

22
00:02:44.520 --> 00:02:46.080
that trap. It can be very
depressing for a lot of people because you

23
00:02:46.199 --> 00:02:51.240
just focus on what they've lost.
And it is important to go back and

24
00:02:51.360 --> 00:02:55.879
look at what was there before and
see if we can't try to sustain or

25
00:02:55.879 --> 00:03:00.960
even revive some of the things that
have been lost. But we don't want

26
00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:05.840
to overdwell on the past. Life
is about the living. Life is about

27
00:03:05.879 --> 00:03:10.520
now. And so I mentioned this
yesterday. You know, we look at

28
00:03:10.560 --> 00:03:16.520
the Christmas carols and we look at
the fact that they're pushing this to us,

29
00:03:16.599 --> 00:03:23.159
that scientists create that an AI that
they claim can predict when you will

30
00:03:23.199 --> 00:03:24.800
die with seventy eight percent accuracy.
I said this yesterday. I said,

31
00:03:24.800 --> 00:03:30.719
well, God knows that with accuracy, but artificial intelligence doesn't. These scientists

32
00:03:30.719 --> 00:03:34.800
don't, your doctor doesn't. How
many you probably have a story I've got

33
00:03:34.800 --> 00:03:38.560
a couple of them about somebody who
gets the clean bill of help from the

34
00:03:38.599 --> 00:03:42.680
doctor and goes out and drops dead. Or maybe they got a shot from

35
00:03:42.719 --> 00:03:45.479
the doctor, you know, the
sugar water that Trump created for us,

36
00:03:45.479 --> 00:03:49.360
as Alex Poyne. Maybe they got
the sugar water shot and then they just

37
00:03:49.479 --> 00:03:54.599
suddenly die. Or it might be
that they just misdiagnosed it didn't catch a

38
00:03:54.680 --> 00:03:59.280
heart condition that was there. Or
maybe it's not even that. Maybe you

39
00:03:59.319 --> 00:04:03.520
know you're perfectly healthy, maybe even
jogging down or cycling down the side of

40
00:04:03.520 --> 00:04:06.919
the road and you get hit by
car and die. We've all known those

41
00:04:06.960 --> 00:04:11.000
types of stories as well. Nobody
knows when you're going to die, and

42
00:04:11.039 --> 00:04:15.120
these scientists don't know either. What
is concerning about this is that they think

43
00:04:15.319 --> 00:04:23.879
they know, and that is a
very dangerous thing because as people more and

44
00:04:23.879 --> 00:04:30.639
more begin to worship artificial intelligence as
being omniscient and being able to predict the

45
00:04:30.680 --> 00:04:38.759
future, and as it becomes omnipresent
everywhere and everything that we do, that's

46
00:04:38.800 --> 00:04:43.000
going to be a real danger and
we need to disavow that from the very

47
00:04:43.000 --> 00:04:46.040
beginning so we don't fall into that
trap. Only God knows this will This

48
00:04:46.120 --> 00:04:49.560
type of AI, for example,
be used to deny you medical care.

49
00:04:51.480 --> 00:04:59.240
But let's also remember this time of
year we celebrate crisis. I said in

50
00:04:57.360 --> 00:05:03.800
the Christmas Care Born so that man
no more may die. Yeah, you're

51
00:05:03.800 --> 00:05:11.600
going to die, but it's not
final. It's a difficult transition. Some

52
00:05:11.639 --> 00:05:14.920
people have said coming into this world
and going out of this world is difficult.

53
00:05:14.959 --> 00:05:16.639
But we know that we're going to
a better world if we're Christians,

54
00:05:17.399 --> 00:05:20.639
and Christ has made that possible.
That's why we celebrate this time of year.

55
00:05:21.360 --> 00:05:26.720
And as I said before, I'm
not dogmatic at all about the religious

56
00:05:26.759 --> 00:05:30.879
aspects of Christmas. It's an opportunity
to talk about the incarnation of Christ,

57
00:05:32.160 --> 00:05:38.800
and it's an opportunity to exercise our
religion in the public space, because if

58
00:05:38.800 --> 00:05:44.399
you don't exercise your freedoms, just
like your body will atrophy and die.

59
00:05:45.120 --> 00:05:47.079
And so it is important for us
to exercise our freedoms. And so far

60
00:05:47.120 --> 00:05:51.079
all those reasons, and an opportunity
to talk to your children about what is

61
00:05:51.160 --> 00:05:56.439
really, what is true, what
isn't true. We've got a lot of

62
00:05:56.439 --> 00:05:59.040
traditions that have been added to it. I mean, even on the religious

63
00:05:59.040 --> 00:06:00.279
side, not just things like Anta
Cloonu's and Rooto Off. There's a lot

64
00:06:00.319 --> 00:06:05.319
of things that have been added,
even in the religious aspects of this,

65
00:06:06.120 --> 00:06:12.120
to talk to them about that.
But when we look at this, this

66
00:06:13.519 --> 00:06:19.079
new artificial god that is being created
before our eyes, this is coming from

67
00:06:19.079 --> 00:06:23.319
a UK paper. Can a doom
calculator really predict when you'll die? Shockingly?

68
00:06:24.120 --> 00:06:30.160
These whiz kid scientists whiz kids?
You know, last time I heard

69
00:06:30.199 --> 00:06:34.639
that phrase that was used to describe
Robert McNamara, who was one of the

70
00:06:34.680 --> 00:06:39.560
whiz kids who was he's a really
smart kid. I don't know what it

71
00:06:39.639 --> 00:06:42.000
was that he did as a prodigy. Maybe he was on a game show

72
00:06:42.079 --> 00:06:45.680
or something, because that's I think
where the that came from, but he

73
00:06:45.759 --> 00:06:49.839
was the guy, the really smart
guy that got us mired down into Vietnam.

74
00:06:50.240 --> 00:06:54.759
Anyway, they can do it with
seventy eight percent accuracy, Well,

75
00:06:54.800 --> 00:06:58.639
you know, God can do it
with one hundred percent accuracy. We all

76
00:06:58.680 --> 00:07:02.879
know the Psalm one, don't we. It's not just artificial intelligence. Does

77
00:07:02.959 --> 00:07:09.040
artificial intelligence know everything about you yet? No? But even if it does

78
00:07:09.120 --> 00:07:13.759
know everything about you, it still
doesn't know everything about you, and it

79
00:07:13.759 --> 00:07:18.639
doesn't know your future. David wrote, Lord You've searched me and known me.

80
00:07:18.720 --> 00:07:23.600
You know my sitting down? Am
I rising up? You understand my

81
00:07:23.720 --> 00:07:26.879
thoughts from afar off, You comprehend
my path, am I lying down?

82
00:07:26.920 --> 00:07:30.319
And you are acquainted with my ways. This, by the way, is

83
00:07:30.319 --> 00:07:34.800
the goal of geospatial intelligence, anticipatory
intelligence that has been the fastest growing part

84
00:07:34.920 --> 00:07:40.600
of the intelligence community since the late
nineteen nineties. They want to have this

85
00:07:40.759 --> 00:07:47.959
godlike knowledge of everyone. But they
did not create us. David goes on

86
00:07:48.040 --> 00:07:50.920
to say to God, you formed
my inward parts. You covered me in

87
00:07:51.000 --> 00:07:57.279
my mother's womb. I'll praise you
for I'm fearfully and wonderfully made. Yes,

88
00:07:57.319 --> 00:08:01.879
we are made. How can you
look at some as complex as a

89
00:08:01.959 --> 00:08:07.199
human being or a dog or any
other animal and say that this is an

90
00:08:07.240 --> 00:08:15.240
accident of random chance processes? A
foolish rebellion, that is the common sense.

91
00:08:16.360 --> 00:08:18.279
You don't say that about any car, any building that you look at.

92
00:08:20.040 --> 00:08:22.560
Marvelous are your works. My soul
knows that very well. My frame

93
00:08:22.639 --> 00:08:28.319
was not hidden from you when I
was made in secret and skillfully wrought in

94
00:08:28.360 --> 00:08:33.440
the lowest parts of the earth.
Your eyes saw my substance yet unformed,

95
00:08:33.360 --> 00:08:39.000
and in your book they were all
written the day's fashion for me, when

96
00:08:39.000 --> 00:08:46.720
there is yet none of them.
And so when we look at the stories

97
00:08:46.720 --> 00:08:50.879
that we had this last week,
I gave you a couple of stories about

98
00:08:52.759 --> 00:09:00.759
people who had children that had trisomy
eighteen. They had diagnosed this, accurately

99
00:09:00.799 --> 00:09:05.039
diagnosed it in a couple of these
cases, and the children did not survive

100
00:09:05.320 --> 00:09:11.279
very long. But there's another part
of that story. Part of the reason

101
00:09:11.360 --> 00:09:16.320
why children are not surviving very long
would try some me eighteen is because of

102
00:09:16.440 --> 00:09:20.679
diagnosis more than anything else. The
doctors look at him and say, oh,

103
00:09:20.840 --> 00:09:24.799
try some me eighteen. There's no
point even doing anything about this.

104
00:09:24.919 --> 00:09:28.559
And yet they have found that if
they actually give the kids some treatment,

105
00:09:30.559 --> 00:09:35.600
that their chances of survival go way
way up, way way up. But

106
00:09:35.679 --> 00:09:37.919
typically they'll look at it and say, the kid's going to die anyway,

107
00:09:37.960 --> 00:09:39.519
We're not going to give them any
health care. Does that sound familiar?

108
00:09:41.919 --> 00:09:46.159
Is that something that we've seen done
to adults. Is that something we've seen

109
00:09:46.200 --> 00:09:48.960
done at the end of life?
Is that something that we saw throughout COVID

110
00:09:50.080 --> 00:09:54.440
nineteen I just but it do not
resuscitate tag on them. As a matter

111
00:09:54.480 --> 00:10:01.519
of fact. You know, the
story of amazing Grace Scott who came on

112
00:10:01.639 --> 00:10:07.559
and talked about it, and you
know he's bringing them to trial because they

113
00:10:07.600 --> 00:10:11.200
said, well, she's got COVID, what's the point and she's got down

114
00:10:11.279 --> 00:10:13.039
syndrome anyway, we'll just put it, do not resustate on there, give

115
00:10:13.039 --> 00:10:16.679
her no health care. You see, this is a much bigger issue than

116
00:10:16.720 --> 00:10:22.000
just abortion. This is why we
talk about pro life. If you're not

117
00:10:22.039 --> 00:10:26.919
pro life for a baby that's sick, that has a health condition, If

118
00:10:26.960 --> 00:10:30.480
you can take a baby that you
tried to kill and did not do that

119
00:10:30.519 --> 00:10:35.440
successfully and just lay it over on
the table and let it die and call

120
00:10:35.519 --> 00:10:41.840
that comfort care, they will do
that to all of us at any stage

121
00:10:41.879 --> 00:10:46.639
of our life. And they'll do
it with a clear conscience because artificial intelligence

122
00:10:46.639 --> 00:10:48.159
tells them, I'm sorry, this
person doesn't have a chance. They've got

123
00:10:48.200 --> 00:10:50.360
this, or they've got that,
or they don't have this, or they

124
00:10:50.360 --> 00:10:58.320
don't have that. And so this
is a story from Live action dot org.

125
00:11:00.600 --> 00:11:05.200
Very important story. Try some me
eighteen is not an automatic death sentence.

126
00:11:05.279 --> 00:11:09.240
These children are proof, but it
can be an automatic death sentence if

127
00:11:09.320 --> 00:11:16.200
the medical establishment treats it that way. I said, you know, we

128
00:11:16.240 --> 00:11:20.080
look at Kate Cox, the story
in Texas. He goes to court to

129
00:11:20.080 --> 00:11:22.840
get an abortion, and it was
really about trying to overthrow that law.

130
00:11:24.200 --> 00:11:28.799
But it's much bigger than that.
You got and Colter and you've got Nuki

131
00:11:28.879 --> 00:11:31.799
Hayley and all of them jumping in
on this and see, this is what's

132
00:11:31.840 --> 00:11:35.519
wrong with your attempt to try to
protect life. You're going to be cruel

133
00:11:35.600 --> 00:11:41.159
to parents, and you're going to
be This is just dangerous and awful for

134
00:11:41.279 --> 00:11:45.279
women, and you should get rid
of these pro life laws, say people

135
00:11:46.360 --> 00:11:50.240
on the GOP side. And so
this idea that there's virtually no chances of

136
00:11:50.480 --> 00:11:54.480
survival has been parroted by a lot
of people who believe that this mother in

137
00:11:54.559 --> 00:12:03.320
Texas should have been allowed to kill
her child because this is not compatible with

138
00:12:03.480 --> 00:12:09.440
life. Many people have been told
that trys ME eighteen is a fatal condition.

139
00:12:09.240 --> 00:12:16.279
Many people were told that COVID nineteen
was a fatal condition, and they

140
00:12:16.440 --> 00:12:20.320
justified that by putting people in comas, putting them on invasive ventilators and killing

141
00:12:20.360 --> 00:12:24.519
them. And of course I made
money doing that, just like the abortionists

142
00:12:24.519 --> 00:12:31.320
make money. And that was a
Trump policy, rewarding the hospitals massively rewarding

143
00:12:31.320 --> 00:12:35.519
them. You just point to somebody
and say they've got COVID nineteen thousand dollars.

144
00:12:35.840 --> 00:12:39.840
You get them on a ventilator thirty
two thousand dollars. You've already got

145
00:12:39.840 --> 00:12:46.759
a three thousand dollars profit on your
fifty three thousand dollars machine. And if

146
00:12:46.759 --> 00:12:48.799
you can keep them breathing for a
few days, oh, you can just

147
00:12:48.840 --> 00:12:54.279
add you know, it's a gravy
train. And then not only that,

148
00:12:54.960 --> 00:12:56.240
we'll give you a twenty percent bonus
for everything that you do. And they

149
00:12:56.320 --> 00:13:01.600
already inflate the prices of everything to
an absurd extreme. And then wait one

150
00:13:01.679 --> 00:13:07.799
year, and after these people have
gotten addicted to these obscene, obscene profits,

151
00:13:09.879 --> 00:13:11.159
then Biden comes around and says,
I'm going to take all those Trump

152
00:13:11.200 --> 00:13:18.200
bonuses away from you. If you
don't vaccinate yourself, Yeah, go kill

153
00:13:18.240 --> 00:13:24.679
yourself now. And so we've seen
this with COVID nineteen. Now we're seeing

154
00:13:24.720 --> 00:13:26.480
it. Would try some me eighteen, Oh, I'm sorry, you got

155
00:13:26.519 --> 00:13:31.399
a fatal condition, no point in
even trying. Do not resuscitate. But

156
00:13:31.480 --> 00:13:35.799
a twenty seventeen study from Stanford and
the University of Arkansas revealed that children would

157
00:13:35.799 --> 00:13:41.519
try some eighteen diagnoses are more likely
to survive if they undergo pediatric art surgery.

158
00:13:41.879 --> 00:13:46.720
In addition, a study two years
later in twenty nineteen showed that ninety

159
00:13:46.759 --> 00:13:52.639
percent of children would try some ME
eighteen survived after their hearts were repaired.

160
00:13:54.440 --> 00:14:01.039
But they use this to try to
get all kids killed. Try some ME

161
00:14:01.120 --> 00:14:07.519
eighteen or COVID nineteen. Same thing, isn't it? And principle, And

162
00:14:07.600 --> 00:14:11.519
I thought this is very interesting.
You a Rick Sentorum. I had a

163
00:14:11.519 --> 00:14:16.720
lot of issues with his policies,
but he was a family man, and

164
00:14:16.759 --> 00:14:22.879
he was very staunchly anti abortion.
And here's one of the reasons he and

165
00:14:22.960 --> 00:14:26.080
his wife, former Senator Rick sendtorm
out of Pennsylvania. Of course, he's

166
00:14:26.759 --> 00:14:31.240
run for president unsuccessfully in the past
as well. But he and his wife

167
00:14:33.120 --> 00:14:39.279
have a daughter who turned fifteen years
old this year, who has trisomy eighteen.

168
00:14:39.720 --> 00:14:43.279
They refused to abort her even though
she had been diagnosed with US and

169
00:14:43.320 --> 00:14:48.360
they told her it was quote incompatible
with life. And so when in culture

170
00:14:48.360 --> 00:14:52.840
and I read you some of what
Ann Culter said the other day, I

171
00:14:52.919 --> 00:14:58.440
read you what Nicki Haley said.
And Ann Coulter, who shame on her,

172
00:14:58.720 --> 00:15:07.000
She's to promote life. She's just
a political hack now talking about how

173
00:15:07.480 --> 00:15:11.039
being pro life is an albatross around
our neck. She knows better. She

174
00:15:11.120 --> 00:15:16.879
knows Trump is an albatross. But
anyway, she went after pro life policies

175
00:15:16.200 --> 00:15:20.960
and so when she did that,
Rick Antorum responded with a tweet to Anne

176
00:15:20.960 --> 00:15:26.440
Coulter and he said, quote,
try Somemy eighteen is not a condition that

177
00:15:26.600 --> 00:15:33.840
is incompatible with life. Meet my
incompatible with life daughter, Bella. Her

178
00:15:33.879 --> 00:15:39.879
doctors put her on hospice at ten
days old. Other countries have much higher

179
00:15:39.879 --> 00:15:45.159
survival rates than the US because they
treat the baby and not the diagnosis.

180
00:15:45.879 --> 00:15:50.559
Every kid deserves a shot at life, not to be brutally dismembered for not

181
00:15:50.639 --> 00:15:58.399
being perfect. Well, said as
Rick Santorum. He said, other countries

182
00:15:58.480 --> 00:16:03.159
have much higher survival rates because we
treat the diagnosis, but they treat the

183
00:16:03.200 --> 00:16:10.159
baby. And then they have In
this article from live action, they've got

184
00:16:10.200 --> 00:16:18.360
several different parents. There's a child, Wiley Durson. The parents learned about

185
00:16:18.360 --> 00:16:21.840
this, of course, as they
all do when they're pregnant. They said,

186
00:16:22.039 --> 00:16:26.320
they showed her to me when she
was born. She was awfully floppy

187
00:16:26.320 --> 00:16:30.159
and blue. Shouldn't look like a
baby who was alive. But they let

188
00:16:30.159 --> 00:16:33.039
my husband hold her, and I'll
never forget the moment just given birth and

189
00:16:33.080 --> 00:16:37.960
he says, she's breathing, She's
breathing, and she just kept breathing and

190
00:16:38.080 --> 00:16:48.360
living. And so she is now
several years old. Verity Jacobson. When

191
00:16:48.399 --> 00:16:53.639
the parents learned their preborn child that
they named Verity, had try someth me

192
00:16:53.679 --> 00:16:57.840
eighteen, they were terrified. They
were given little to no information about what

193
00:16:57.879 --> 00:17:02.480
the future would look like. The
information that we were gleaning was that if

194
00:17:02.519 --> 00:17:06.759
she were to be born alive,
the average lifespan would be five to fifteen

195
00:17:06.839 --> 00:17:11.240
days. And so we're having conversations
about where we're going to bury our baby

196
00:17:11.039 --> 00:17:15.880
and what the memorial service is going
to be like. And I just grieved

197
00:17:15.039 --> 00:17:18.599
so much, she said. And
of course the stories that I had the

198
00:17:18.640 --> 00:17:23.880
other day that the babies did not
survive. But the mothers, even though

199
00:17:23.880 --> 00:17:29.880
they were saddened by that, it
was reassuring to them that they had not

200
00:17:30.279 --> 00:17:36.640
added to the babies suffering by having
them ripped apart limb by limb in an

201
00:17:36.680 --> 00:17:41.119
abortion, and the fact that they
had been able to hold their child for

202
00:17:41.240 --> 00:17:45.039
a few moments of life that they
had, but to her surprise, Verity

203
00:17:45.119 --> 00:17:48.519
did not die right after birth.
To the mother's surprise, that a she

204
00:17:48.680 --> 00:17:52.640
is thriving in her own special way. Life now is amazing and it's not

205
00:17:52.680 --> 00:17:55.960
perfect, she said. It's not
easy, but it is so much better

206
00:17:55.960 --> 00:17:59.160
than we could have imagined, said
the mother. And the way that she

207
00:17:59.240 --> 00:18:04.000
has enriched our lives, it's just
amazing as well. Same story. I'm

208
00:18:04.039 --> 00:18:11.160
always heard and seen from parents who
have children with Down syndrome or any other

209
00:18:11.200 --> 00:18:14.480
thing. Right. We would all
like for our children to be perfect and

210
00:18:14.559 --> 00:18:21.839
have no health issues whatsoever, But
isn't great to have them anyway? Harper

211
00:18:21.920 --> 00:18:26.720
Grace In a Special Books by Special
Kids video interview, her mother said her

212
00:18:26.839 --> 00:18:29.079
only goal was to be able took
Harper in the eye and tell her I

213
00:18:29.079 --> 00:18:32.640
Love you after birth. To her
surprise, she was able to do that

214
00:18:33.240 --> 00:18:38.079
and much more, as Harper did
not die as the doctor's predicted. Now,

215
00:18:38.119 --> 00:18:45.039
she fights for better treatment of those
with trisomy eighteen diagnosis. Faith Smith's

216
00:18:45.119 --> 00:18:48.839
parents learned of it. The doctors
encourage them to abort. When they refused

217
00:18:48.880 --> 00:18:53.920
to abort, the doctor started going
down the planned parenthood script. The doctors

218
00:18:53.960 --> 00:18:56.920
tried to scare them into ending their
daughter's life, warning that if she was

219
00:18:56.960 --> 00:19:02.960
born, it would ruin their marriage, it would devastate them financially, it

220
00:19:02.960 --> 00:19:07.559
would make life difficult for their other
children, all things they tell you planned

221
00:19:07.599 --> 00:19:14.559
parenthood. The couple refused to listen, instead fought for their daughter's life,

222
00:19:12.920 --> 00:19:21.039
and a Facebook post celebrating her twelfth
birthday in twenty twenty, the father shared

223
00:19:21.039 --> 00:19:26.319
a happy message. They said,
it's a wonderful life and this is a

224
00:19:26.359 --> 00:19:32.839
special day. Faith is twelve years
old today. Our fatal fetal anomaly,

225
00:19:33.759 --> 00:19:40.039
who is incompatible with life, just
won't listen to her critics. We weren't

226
00:19:40.119 --> 00:19:45.680
lucky. We had help from a
mighty God and from some great doctors and

227
00:19:45.799 --> 00:19:51.680
nurses who treated her over the years. A life is valuable. This is

228
00:19:51.680 --> 00:19:53.799
one of the things that you see
through these people who were talking about it.

229
00:19:56.200 --> 00:20:00.759
They have faith in God, and
they see prayers in and God does

230
00:20:00.799 --> 00:20:06.559
not answer every prayer to heal every
illness or every person. He has greater

231
00:20:06.640 --> 00:20:12.079
purposes in our life. Sometimes that
includes suffering and loss. But look at

232
00:20:12.079 --> 00:20:18.880
what our culture is doing. That's
other top of a show. I said,

233
00:20:18.920 --> 00:20:25.400
we need to think about culture.
What are we cultivating here right again.

234
00:20:25.559 --> 00:20:30.559
You know the same word for cultivation
of plants or bacteria. Culture.

235
00:20:30.599 --> 00:20:36.279
That's what we're doing. We're actively
promoting something to grow. And so what

236
00:20:36.480 --> 00:20:40.359
is it that we're trying to grow
in America or what is it that other

237
00:20:40.440 --> 00:20:45.599
people are trying to grow as we
set passively by, Because you can't win

238
00:20:45.640 --> 00:20:49.279
a culture war without culture, and
culture comes down to each and every one

239
00:20:49.319 --> 00:20:53.240
of us. It comes down to
traditions that you set up with your friends

240
00:20:53.240 --> 00:21:00.640
and family, It comes to the
things that you do. And instead,

241
00:21:00.759 --> 00:21:07.240
what we have become is a nation
of voyeurs. We just set back and

242
00:21:07.279 --> 00:21:08.920
we let other people do the culture
thing for us, and we just watch

243
00:21:08.960 --> 00:21:15.720
it and watching what they want and
what they produce out of life. That

244
00:21:15.799 --> 00:21:22.240
becomes our culture, our passive voyeur
culture. And so you've got a college

245
00:21:22.279 --> 00:21:29.359
that knows this, and they are
launching a movie contest not to celebrate life,

246
00:21:29.599 --> 00:21:33.839
but to celebrate abortion. Maybe they
could call the movie It's a Wonderful

247
00:21:33.880 --> 00:21:41.759
Murder. Barnard College wants to celebrate
and support abortion stories. They have their

248
00:21:41.799 --> 00:21:48.680
annual Athena film festival, named after
a goddess. Right. They recently closed

249
00:21:48.880 --> 00:21:56.119
submissions for mentorship program winners of a
script competition will be announced at the Film

250
00:21:56.119 --> 00:22:00.599
Festival scheduled for February the twenty ninth. And so, I guess maybe if

251
00:22:00.599 --> 00:22:03.720
you could come up with a script, I don't know, away with the

252
00:22:03.799 --> 00:22:07.559
Manger, How about that Away with
the Manger. Maybe we could even write

253
00:22:07.559 --> 00:22:11.759
a song about that. Get some
money from these people who have a culture

254
00:22:14.000 --> 00:22:19.200
that they want to grow. And
it's like a gain of function bacteria culture

255
00:22:21.319 --> 00:22:23.680
that is getting more and more deadly
in our society all the time. Winners

256
00:22:23.720 --> 00:22:26.880
of this project or receive mentorship on
how to better promote the direct killing of

257
00:22:26.880 --> 00:22:30.680
innocent preborn babies. And they call
the project. Listen to this, it's

258
00:22:30.720 --> 00:22:36.200
the APP. What does that stand
for? Well, not APP, It's

259
00:22:36.279 --> 00:22:45.279
the Abortion Pipeline Project and an annual
narrative screenplay competition to feature short film scripts

260
00:22:45.000 --> 00:22:51.359
which seek to seed and source a
variety of narrative film projects which center abortion.

261
00:22:51.480 --> 00:22:56.400
That's the way they describe it themselves. They want to center abortion a

262
00:22:56.480 --> 00:23:03.559
cult of death, a culture of
death. What are we going to do

263
00:23:03.720 --> 00:23:07.400
to grow the opposite? This is
a so abortionists want parents out of their

264
00:23:07.440 --> 00:23:12.279
daughter's life and death decisions. And
this is going to Massachusetts used to be

265
00:23:12.319 --> 00:23:18.960
the epicenter of evil anymore, Elizabeth
Warren and people associated with Elizabeth Warren,

266
00:23:18.359 --> 00:23:26.519
Massachusetts doesn't have very many protections for
babies. The uh and I'm sure in

267
00:23:26.559 --> 00:23:30.599
these if you look at these screenplays, they'll probably portray the parents is hopelessly

268
00:23:30.599 --> 00:23:34.559
out of touch. That's become a
meme for Hollywood, hasn't it. Yeah,

269
00:23:34.599 --> 00:23:37.160
since the middle of the twentieth century, maybe earlier than that. Parents

270
00:23:37.200 --> 00:23:41.079
are just always hopeless out of touch. You don't you don't need to listen

271
00:23:41.079 --> 00:23:44.519
to them. Well, they've got
very few pro life protections. As a

272
00:23:44.519 --> 00:23:48.240
matter of fact, you can kill
children up through twenty four weeks. France

273
00:23:48.400 --> 00:23:53.839
is only twelve weeks. France is
only twelve weeks, and they recently extended

274
00:23:53.880 --> 00:23:57.880
that because he used to be like
ten weeks or something like that. But

275
00:23:57.960 --> 00:24:07.279
Massachusetts four weeks twice as long as
France. Planned Parenthood's Massachusetts CEO says that

276
00:24:07.359 --> 00:24:11.319
her number one priority is making abortion
more accessible. Oh, I imagine it

277
00:24:11.400 --> 00:24:14.599
is. I mean, that's how
she makes money. That's where they make

278
00:24:14.599 --> 00:24:17.319
their money. They're not about women's
health, they're about killing babies. The

279
00:24:17.400 --> 00:24:22.079
rental consent requirement, she said,
was reduced from the age of eighteen to

280
00:24:22.119 --> 00:24:26.599
sixteen, but she said even sixteen
is still too high. There's no evidence

281
00:24:26.680 --> 00:24:30.759
that it is medically necessary. No, it's not medically necessary to kill a

282
00:24:30.759 --> 00:24:37.240
baby to have printal consent. It's
not necessarily necessary to have prontal consent if

283
00:24:37.279 --> 00:24:42.640
you want to mutilate a child's sexually
groom them and mutilate them, and chemicals

284
00:24:42.680 --> 00:24:51.799
and surgery not medically necessary. Just
delays this anywhere from five to twenty one

285
00:24:51.880 --> 00:24:56.000
days. So she says she's going
to be focusing on quote, reducing all

286
00:24:56.039 --> 00:25:00.720
of the unnecessary burdens and barriers that
stand the way of killing babies. Things

287
00:25:00.799 --> 00:25:04.880
like eliminating printal involvement are at the
top of her list as she talks to

288
00:25:04.920 --> 00:25:10.240
the press. The desire to remove
rental notification laws place as young girls in

289
00:25:10.279 --> 00:25:15.599
greater danger of being trafficked, of
being forced into abortion that they don't want.

290
00:25:17.000 --> 00:25:18.799
And we've talked about this for many, many years. How Planned Parenthood

291
00:25:18.799 --> 00:25:23.599
when they get a young child in
who's a miner who's pregnant, this is

292
00:25:23.759 --> 00:25:29.640
obviously statutory rate, but Planned Parenthood
does not report this to the police.

293
00:25:29.640 --> 00:25:33.440
They don't want anything come of this. Because you know, if they started

294
00:25:33.480 --> 00:25:36.720
doing that, they would discourage girls
from coming there and killing babies. And

295
00:25:36.720 --> 00:25:40.759
that's how they make their money.
Abortion is Planned Parenthood's biggest money maker.

296
00:25:41.200 --> 00:25:45.839
According to their twenty twenty annual report, they killed six and a half million

297
00:25:45.880 --> 00:25:52.319
babies since two thousand and got nine
point three billion dollars in taxpayer dollars.

298
00:25:53.519 --> 00:25:59.119
And then, of course in twenty
twenty, as they were handing out the

299
00:25:59.200 --> 00:26:03.640
Universal Basic caame come training checks they
call stimulus checks or PPP or whatever,

300
00:26:03.039 --> 00:26:06.119
the Congress said, well, you
know, we're not going to give that

301
00:26:06.160 --> 00:26:10.480
to Planned Parenthood, but the Democrats
did anyway. It was in the law

302
00:26:10.519 --> 00:26:11.960
that it wasn't supposed to go to
them, but they got it anyway.

303
00:26:14.079 --> 00:26:18.559
Minor cannot undergo surgery or even receive
medicine from a school nurse without a parent's

304
00:26:18.640 --> 00:26:22.319
approval. However, now we're letting
them do the abortions in Massachusetts if they

305
00:26:22.359 --> 00:26:27.440
get what they want. And of
course, the other emerging profit center for

306
00:26:27.519 --> 00:26:34.799
Planned Parenthood is the chemicals to the
puberty, chemicals for the trans grooming that

307
00:26:34.880 --> 00:26:41.000
is happening, so you can groom
the kids in school for transgender mutilation and

308
00:26:41.079 --> 00:26:44.880
Planned parenthood can sell that as well. It's all the puberty blockers and make

309
00:26:44.920 --> 00:26:52.200
money off of that as well.
They've got all of this covered. It's

310
00:26:52.240 --> 00:26:56.680
a business that makes money on death. And so the as I said,

311
00:26:56.720 --> 00:27:03.400
Massachusetts is where they're trying to get
rid of Parntal consent completely. And also

312
00:27:03.440 --> 00:27:08.440
coming out of Massachusetts, also aligned
with Liz Warren is a guy who is

313
00:27:08.480 --> 00:27:15.599
in charge of the Department of Education, and he is the Department of Education

314
00:27:17.720 --> 00:27:26.720
is going after a Christian university with
massive fines and it is really trivial and

315
00:27:26.759 --> 00:27:30.519
a false charge, but they want
to shut this down. The headline from

316
00:27:30.640 --> 00:27:33.960
WND the Fed say that Christian and
affordable colleges are ten times worse than hiding

317
00:27:34.240 --> 00:27:40.759
sex offenders if you look at the
fines that they're assessing here. They've made

318
00:27:41.519 --> 00:27:49.079
the accusation against this college that its
motto is private, Christian and affordable,

319
00:27:51.200 --> 00:27:55.680
and so they came up with a
find that is ten times worse than they

320
00:27:55.720 --> 00:28:02.519
have given to other schools for concealing
sex offenders. The officials who are defending

321
00:28:02.559 --> 00:28:07.079
them at the Goldwater Institute, so
they're demanding information about the Biden's Department of

322
00:28:07.200 --> 00:28:11.799
Education agenda against Grand Canyon University of
Phoenix. They say a lawsuit will follow

323
00:28:11.799 --> 00:28:18.480
if the immediate results aren't status factory
thirty seven point seven million dollar fine against

324
00:28:18.519 --> 00:28:25.839
the organization. And so right now
the people the Goldwater Institute are written a

325
00:28:25.839 --> 00:28:30.759
commentary about it. They have not
filed a complaint yet, not filed a

326
00:28:30.799 --> 00:28:37.160
lawsuit yet. They basically laid out
the lines of the lawsuit. But we

327
00:28:37.240 --> 00:28:42.039
just saw the Biden administration as they
leave the border wide open and are bringing

328
00:28:42.079 --> 00:28:48.119
in millions of people every year anybody
can walk in. You saw them go

329
00:28:48.160 --> 00:28:56.079
to a great deal of trouble to
site try to deport German homeschool family that

330
00:28:56.200 --> 00:29:00.880
was Christian. We don't want those
kind of people here. To me,

331
00:29:02.039 --> 00:29:07.920
that says everything. They open border, but then double down that isn't a

332
00:29:07.079 --> 00:29:10.519
situation. The open border is not
a situation. Well, we just can't

333
00:29:10.519 --> 00:29:15.119
figure out what to do. We're
just hopelessly incompetent. It's a bigger problem

334
00:29:15.119 --> 00:29:17.400
than we can manage. No,
when you look at what they try to

335
00:29:17.400 --> 00:29:21.400
do with the German homeschool and Christian
family and support them after they've been here

336
00:29:21.440 --> 00:29:30.480
for quite some time, they're supporting
themselves and they are genuine political refugees religiously

337
00:29:30.519 --> 00:29:36.240
persecuted because Germany persecutes anybody that has
Christian convictions to homeschool their own kids.

338
00:29:36.799 --> 00:29:40.119
And so when you look at that, that tells you what this policy is

339
00:29:40.160 --> 00:29:44.839
about. It really is deliberate,
It really is a great replacement, and

340
00:29:44.880 --> 00:29:51.599
it's latest assault on institutions that fail
to adhere to its ideological meant The Biden

341
00:29:51.599 --> 00:29:55.519
administration just imposed the largest line in
history from the US Department of Education on

342
00:29:55.599 --> 00:30:00.920
Grand Canyon University. His motto is
private, Christian and affordable, ten times

343
00:30:00.920 --> 00:30:04.440
bigger than they levied against some of
the worst sex offenders in in history.

344
00:30:04.720 --> 00:30:10.839
By any metric. The school is
a success story, says the op ed

345
00:30:10.920 --> 00:30:14.279
piece, having grown from a tiny
school with fewer than a thousand students to

346
00:30:14.319 --> 00:30:18.599
one of the largest private schools in
the country offering degrees in every conceivable discipline.

347
00:30:18.920 --> 00:30:22.519
All that happened without raising tuition on
students in over fifteen years. And

348
00:30:22.599 --> 00:30:30.160
so now they're demanding that the Department
of Education turnover public records they would indicate

349
00:30:30.279 --> 00:30:33.480
that there's collusion, collusion within the
Biden administration, collusion with Elizabeth Warren.

350
00:30:36.240 --> 00:30:41.319
So they said, as this guy
took power, his name is Richard Cordray,

351
00:30:42.599 --> 00:30:47.880
who has been tightly associated with Elizabeth
Warren in the past. As he

352
00:30:47.920 --> 00:30:51.640
took over, they said he and
his cronies made a mission to made it

353
00:30:51.880 --> 00:30:56.839
their mission to destroy institutions that do
not subscribe to the prevailing orthodoxy at government

354
00:30:56.960 --> 00:31:03.079
run schools. You see this time
of year, and Naomi Wolf had an

355
00:31:03.880 --> 00:31:07.480
excellent op ed piece and I want
you to I want to read parts of

356
00:31:07.480 --> 00:31:12.039
it too. She's Jewish, she's
liberal. I think she's a lesbian.

357
00:31:12.079 --> 00:31:17.200
I think I mean she's but she's
looking at this and saying, what is

358
00:31:17.240 --> 00:31:25.400
it about this obsession about destroying all
the free exercise of religion? She woke

359
00:31:25.519 --> 00:31:32.119
up with the Trump lockdowns. People
call them the COVID lockdowns. COVID didn't

360
00:31:32.160 --> 00:31:37.640
lockdown anybody Trump did. Yeah,
what amazing narrative the right has created,

361
00:31:38.079 --> 00:31:42.480
the mainstream alternative media has created.
But anyway, when you look at this,

362
00:31:42.640 --> 00:31:47.480
they do have an orthodoxy. They
may not want you to have any

363
00:31:47.960 --> 00:31:51.920
mangers in your school, but they
want you to have all of their religion,

364
00:31:52.640 --> 00:31:56.279
LGBT, Marxism, racism, all
of this stuff that's got to be

365
00:31:56.319 --> 00:32:01.119
there. And if you don't have
that there, and you openly advertise at

366
00:32:01.119 --> 00:32:07.000
you're a Christian school in private,
they start looking for a way to destroy

367
00:32:07.039 --> 00:32:09.480
you. We were not being paranoid. This is just we see this over

368
00:32:09.519 --> 00:32:15.680
and over again. Bid administrations claim
that the school didn't provide information about the

369
00:32:15.720 --> 00:32:21.480
need for graduate students to continue to
take education courses. The Department has not

370
00:32:21.559 --> 00:32:28.759
cited any student complaints. Instead,
they made a number of conclusatory statements that

371
00:32:28.799 --> 00:32:31.799
do not appear to be supported by
actual facts. Said the Goldwater Institute and

372
00:32:31.799 --> 00:32:37.359
their opt ed piece. They said
the school allegedly quote violated federal disclosure laws

373
00:32:37.839 --> 00:32:45.279
by insufficiently disclosing to PhD students that
they may have to take continuing courses while

374
00:32:45.279 --> 00:32:49.640
completing their doctoral dissertations. In other
words, the allegation is that the most

375
00:32:49.680 --> 00:32:53.920
highly educated students at GCU can't read
the brochure. So this is clearly stated.

376
00:32:55.240 --> 00:32:59.599
And again there have been no complaints
from the students. That's the key

377
00:32:59.599 --> 00:33:04.680
thing. So what is the standing
from the Department of Education if there's been

378
00:33:04.680 --> 00:33:07.880
no complaints, Well, you know
they're coming after Trump in New York,

379
00:33:07.920 --> 00:33:13.799
even though the banks didn't complain about
it. And where's there standing in this?

380
00:33:15.119 --> 00:33:19.799
Well, we know where they're standing
this is just political persecution of their

381
00:33:19.920 --> 00:33:22.960
enemies. And you know, I
don't support Trump, but that's what this

382
00:33:23.119 --> 00:33:30.519
Manhattan thing is. The commentary from
the people. Again, I said,

383
00:33:30.519 --> 00:33:34.000
it's not as commentary right now,
it's not a complaint, it's not a

384
00:33:34.079 --> 00:33:42.839
lawsuit that's been filed. Noted that
the department's conclusory statements would in any other

385
00:33:43.039 --> 00:33:47.240
context be considered to be defamation.
They said, even if they can't prove

386
00:33:47.440 --> 00:33:53.960
the allegations against their allegations, not
even student allegations. This the Biden Department

387
00:33:54.000 --> 00:33:59.359
of Education has allegations and no student
complaints. Even if they can't prove this,

388
00:33:59.440 --> 00:34:04.480
they intend for the process to be
punishment, they said in their commentary.

389
00:34:04.519 --> 00:34:08.239
This is a school that has found
innovative solutions for everything from the nationwide

390
00:34:08.360 --> 00:34:14.400
nursing shortage to graduating students, and
to high demand and high paying trade jobs.

391
00:34:14.440 --> 00:34:17.119
They have a thriving campus life of
students dedicated to serving the surrounding neighborhood,

392
00:34:17.679 --> 00:34:24.119
which is economically distressed but substantially improving
because of this university's presence. If

393
00:34:24.119 --> 00:34:30.119
students graduate with less debt than an
average student nationwide, and by way of

394
00:34:30.119 --> 00:34:35.679
comparison, public universities nationwide have raised
tuition on resident students by an average of

395
00:34:35.719 --> 00:34:40.840
more than one hundred and fifty percent
over the past two decades, despite benefiting

396
00:34:40.880 --> 00:34:47.000
from taxpayer funded subsidies that GCU does
not receive, So they don't get tax

397
00:34:47.079 --> 00:34:53.840
payer money like these other places,
and they don't get big donors like Harvard,

398
00:34:54.119 --> 00:34:58.079
who's now starting to lose their big
donors. We're going to take a

399
00:34:58.119 --> 00:35:01.360
quick break and we'll be right and
I just want to say, as we

400
00:35:01.639 --> 00:35:07.000
begin to play this, thank you
so much to APS Radio for carrying this

401
00:35:07.079 --> 00:35:12.880
and for being a supporter of this
program. And we'll talk about where we

402
00:35:12.920 --> 00:35:15.280
are when we come back. I
really want to thank all of you,

403
00:35:15.320 --> 00:35:19.480
and I've got a list here of
people's names, and I have not yet

404
00:35:19.519 --> 00:35:22.400
read out from Zel, but I
do want to take the time to do

405
00:35:22.480 --> 00:35:25.760
that because you've been such a blessing
to us and we are so grateful.

406
00:35:27.480 --> 00:35:34.519
And yesterday, with the tips that
we got on Rumble and with Tony matching

407
00:35:34.559 --> 00:35:38.239
it, that brought us up to
just over seventy percent, so we've moved

408
00:35:38.280 --> 00:35:42.599
up the gas gates to seventy five
percent. So thank you for catching us

409
00:35:42.639 --> 00:35:46.559
up, and thank you for the
generous contributions and for Tony who has done

410
00:35:46.599 --> 00:35:53.199
so much to support this program again, even setting up David Knight dot gold

411
00:35:54.280 --> 00:35:59.719
for us and helping us through that
and helping you to find a place where

412
00:35:59.760 --> 00:36:02.239
you can get gold and silver and
you can lock in the price unlike Costco

413
00:36:02.480 --> 00:36:07.079
or anybody else, and you can
make sure that you get the product actually

414
00:36:07.119 --> 00:36:10.760
delivered. Again, David Knight die
Gold will take you to Tony Ardeman Wisewolf

415
00:36:10.760 --> 00:36:15.320
dot Gold. Tony and Guard will
be doing the show next week. We're

416
00:36:15.480 --> 00:36:20.440
going to have a rebroadcast on Monday, and they will be splitting duties.

417
00:36:21.400 --> 00:36:23.559
They're working with each other as to
how they're going to split this out next

418
00:36:23.559 --> 00:36:28.239
week and so to give me a
little bit of time off, so I'm

419
00:36:28.280 --> 00:36:32.639
grateful for that as well. We'll
be right back here news now at apsradionews

420
00:36:32.639 --> 00:36:40.320

app and never miss another story. I'm

00:36:40.320 --> 00:36:45.400
delighted to present something born from my
love for music and the Christmas season.

422
00:36:46.119 --> 00:36:51.880
Christmas Night is a perfect companiment for
anything from family gatherings the moments of peaceful

423
00:36:51.960 --> 00:37:10.239
reflection. I hopeless to provide a
fresh take to the soundtrack of Christmas This

424
00:37:10.320 --> 00:37:24.320
collection of twenty instrumental songs brings new
life to timeless Christmas classics with original orchestrations

425
00:37:24.320 --> 00:37:45.559
alongside lesser known, yet equally enchanting
carols. For the listeners of The David

426
00:37:45.639 --> 00:37:50.760
Night Show, this is more than
music. It's part of our shared journey.

427
00:37:51.960 --> 00:37:54.920
Christmas Night is available at the Davidnightshow

431
00:38:24.039 --> 00:38:29.920
said, I want to thank the
people that I've gotten behind in reading the

432
00:38:30.000 --> 00:38:32.639
people on Zell and on zel I
don't have any way to respond to people.

433
00:38:32.800 --> 00:38:37.920
It just like I don't really have
a way to respond to people who

434
00:38:37.000 --> 00:38:43.679
send us support by mail. And
I got a lot of Christmas cards.

435
00:38:43.679 --> 00:38:45.280
Thank you so much for the Christmas
cards. I don't have the time to

436
00:38:45.320 --> 00:38:47.360
show all of them. We've got
so many of them, but thank you

437
00:38:49.039 --> 00:38:53.639
for that consideration. And they will
go from my desk to display in the

438
00:38:53.639 --> 00:38:57.599
house. So thank you very much. But let me just run down this

439
00:38:57.679 --> 00:39:04.320
quickly because it is important of the
people who keep this show going, and

William R. Peter E. Gretchen
again, Thank you, Gretchen and Jay

448
00:39:52.480 --> 00:39:59.199
again, j H, Linda M, Noel R, Sean S, Matthew

449
00:39:59.400 --> 00:40:07.559
S, Kimberly M, Mona N. Kimberly M again and Manny D,

450
00:40:08.239 --> 00:40:16.559
Felicia H. Gregory I, Jeffrey
C again and Ronald H. Gretchen Cee

451
00:40:16.760 --> 00:40:22.000
again, Daniel M. Thank you
very much all of you, and thank

452
00:40:22.000 --> 00:40:24.800
you for bearing with us as we
read that out. But those are the

453
00:40:24.800 --> 00:40:29.199
people that keep this broadcast going.
Thank you so much of all of you

454
00:40:29.239 --> 00:40:34.840
for your support. Let's talk a
little bit about crime and punishment. There

455
00:40:34.920 --> 00:40:38.000
is an amazing story that has just
came out yesterday and I haven't seen people

456
00:40:38.039 --> 00:40:43.079
pick this up much in the media
yet, but as a lead up to

457
00:40:43.119 --> 00:40:47.719
it, there are some other punishments
that are rolling around. I've talked for

458
00:40:47.760 --> 00:40:52.559
the longest time about civil asset forfiture. If you know this program, you

459
00:40:52.639 --> 00:40:59.199
know about civil asset forfiture. When
Megan Kelly came ton for Worst Interview People,

460
00:41:00.559 --> 00:41:01.199
I brought that up. She had
never heard of it. She's a

461
00:41:01.280 --> 00:41:07.920
lawyer and a journalist and she had
never heard of it and still doesn't care.

462
00:41:07.000 --> 00:41:12.159
After she heard about it. She
still doesn't care because it's about her

463
00:41:12.480 --> 00:41:17.599
right. But this is a sentencing
commission that is again proposed restricting judge's use

464
00:41:19.280 --> 00:41:22.559
of acquitted conduct. You see,
this is not only do we have people

465
00:41:24.199 --> 00:41:28.440
with civil asset forfeitrue. They say, well, it's not a law.

466
00:41:28.800 --> 00:41:31.079
It's a rule passed by the bureaucracy. So you don't get any the protections

467
00:41:31.159 --> 00:41:35.760
under the constitution. You don't get
the presumption of innocence, you don't get

468
00:41:35.840 --> 00:41:38.480
due process, you don't get protection
against successifies it because this is a rule,

469
00:41:38.519 --> 00:41:44.480
it's not a law. Isn't that
odd? Right? You take the

470
00:41:44.760 --> 00:41:50.880
very fact that we are regulated without
representation isn't abomination, and yet they use

471
00:41:50.920 --> 00:41:55.440
that very abomination of regulation with our
representation then to deny us all the due

472
00:41:55.480 --> 00:42:04.039
process outlined in the Constitution. It's
an outrage. It's an outrage. I

473
00:42:04.039 --> 00:42:07.239
don't understand why people are not outraged
about civilized at for for sure. But

474
00:42:07.239 --> 00:42:12.960
here's another aspect of this, and
they're looking at possibly reforming this, but

475
00:42:13.199 --> 00:42:16.119
yeah, maybe not, I don't
know. This is picked up by reason.

476
00:42:17.519 --> 00:42:22.840
A government panel could soon limit a
little known but outrageous practice that allows

477
00:42:22.880 --> 00:42:30.239
federal judges to enhance defendants's sentence based
on conduct that they have been acquitted of.

478
00:42:31.679 --> 00:42:37.760
What you've been acquitted of it,
but the judge can still enhance your

479
00:42:37.760 --> 00:42:43.519
sentence as if you have been convicted
of that. Yes, that's been going

480
00:42:43.559 --> 00:42:47.440
on, and so they look at
this as well, maybe we should stop

481
00:42:47.480 --> 00:42:52.480
this by the way, you know, maybe should call this the ross Albrick

482
00:42:52.679 --> 00:42:55.519
clause because it was even worse with
ross all break. You know, just

483
00:42:55.519 --> 00:42:59.719
as we talked about the fact they
can steal your property, your cash,

484
00:43:00.119 --> 00:43:04.039
car, your home, your business, anything like that, they can steal

485
00:43:04.079 --> 00:43:08.400
it without even without a conviction,
without even indicting you for anything. Well,

486
00:43:08.480 --> 00:43:15.880
Ross Albrick who was running Silk Road, and of course you also had

487
00:43:16.519 --> 00:43:22.559
FBI agents who were dipping into that
and stole a million dollars out of it,

488
00:43:22.199 --> 00:43:27.760
and they were on trial for that
at the same time that ross Albrick

489
00:43:27.960 --> 00:43:31.320
was. But they would not allow
ross Albrick's defense to even mention that,

490
00:43:32.079 --> 00:43:36.880
because if he was allowed to mention
that, then people might not believe the

491
00:43:36.920 --> 00:43:44.679
government's narrative that ross Albrick was solely
responsible for anything that happened on this website.

492
00:43:45.000 --> 00:43:47.119
And of course there was some illegal
activity that was happening on this website,

493
00:43:47.159 --> 00:43:52.000
just like there's illegal activity that happens
everywhere on the Internet. They had

494
00:43:52.000 --> 00:43:55.320
a big problem because he was an
early adopter and promoter of bitcoin. He

495
00:43:55.360 --> 00:44:00.679
put his website on what they liked
to call the dark Web. Why they

496
00:44:00.719 --> 00:44:02.960
call it the dark web? Is
it any darker than the rest of the

497
00:44:04.000 --> 00:44:07.320
web. No, it's not.
It's simply that they can't see it.

498
00:44:08.679 --> 00:44:14.039
And Gotree and I have talked about
that many times. But for ross Olbrich,

499
00:44:15.159 --> 00:44:17.000
as these FBI agents have the keys
to it, as they're stealing a

500
00:44:17.000 --> 00:44:22.639
million dollars out of the website and
then subsequently getting convicted themselves, but don't

501
00:44:22.639 --> 00:44:27.400
tell the jury that. But what
they did after they convicted him of,

502
00:44:28.519 --> 00:44:35.280
you know, having the website.
There were allegations, but never an indictment,

503
00:44:36.320 --> 00:44:38.599
that there had been something put on
the website, murder for hire,

504
00:44:40.159 --> 00:44:44.960
and again he was these are allegations
that were made in the press. You

505
00:44:45.079 --> 00:44:47.119
had a district attorney who made these
allegations in the press, but he never

506
00:44:47.119 --> 00:44:52.880
did an indictment. I wonder why. And yet when they convicted Ross and

507
00:44:52.920 --> 00:44:58.800
I forget what it was that they
convicted him of, the key thing about

508
00:44:58.880 --> 00:45:01.480
the enhancement with for this, they
gave him, this young man, they

509
00:45:01.519 --> 00:45:08.320
gave three consecutive life sentences to which
means that he can ever get parole.

510
00:45:09.639 --> 00:45:15.000
And I've interviewed his mother multiple times
when I was at Info Wars, and

511
00:45:15.320 --> 00:45:21.400
I've lost contact with her, but
I have to try to get contact.

512
00:45:22.039 --> 00:45:23.119
We talked about it at the time, and I had her on at the

513
00:45:23.119 --> 00:45:29.320
time because there was a hope at
the time that perhaps some of the people

514
00:45:29.519 --> 00:45:36.840
and the Trump administration would get Trump
to pardon him. And that was really

515
00:45:36.840 --> 00:45:40.320
when I was talking to his mother
at the time. Now there's not any

516
00:45:40.320 --> 00:45:46.000
hope of that because Biden is such
an authoritarian and because they're so adamantly opposed

517
00:45:46.039 --> 00:45:51.239
to crypto and that type of thing. But that was one of the things

518
00:45:51.280 --> 00:45:57.159
that really disturbed me at the end
of the Trump first administrator, the fact

519
00:45:57.159 --> 00:46:00.920
that he didn't pardon the January the
six people, the fact that he didn't

520
00:46:00.960 --> 00:46:06.880
pardon Ross Elbrick, the fact they
didn't pardon Marty Gosfeld who subsequently got out

521
00:46:07.000 --> 00:46:10.840
serving his time, and many many
others, you know, they're there,

522
00:46:12.440 --> 00:46:16.239
Francis Schaeffer, Cox and others that
he should have pardoned. Instead, Trump

523
00:46:16.320 --> 00:46:23.800
pardoned these some of the biggest white
collar criminals and frauds and friends of Jared

524
00:46:23.840 --> 00:46:31.119
Kushner. And we know why.
Money that corruption. It just made me

525
00:46:31.159 --> 00:46:35.840
want It just made me sick.
On top of everything else that he had

526
00:46:35.880 --> 00:46:39.039
been doing for the last year,
on top of the lockdowns, on top

527
00:46:39.079 --> 00:46:42.960
of the masks, on top of
the warp speed, on top of the

528
00:46:43.039 --> 00:46:45.280
vote by mail election, then pushing
people into January sixth, and then he

529
00:46:45.320 --> 00:46:50.920
doesn't pardon people who have been abused
by the system, like Ross Elbrick three

530
00:46:51.119 --> 00:47:00.480
consecutive life sentences. You know,
the Bible tells us, gives us the

531
00:47:00.679 --> 00:47:09.760
character of God and describes him as
defendive widows, father to fatherless who sets

532
00:47:09.840 --> 00:47:16.480
the prisoners free, especial prisoners who
were held unjustly. I don't see any

533
00:47:16.519 --> 00:47:22.480
of that character in this character who's
running for office. Just amazing anyway.

534
00:47:23.320 --> 00:47:30.320
So what they're doing so with Ross
albric they use the allegations in the press,

535
00:47:30.360 --> 00:47:34.559
even though he was never indicted and
certainly wasn't convicted. That's why I

536
00:47:34.559 --> 00:47:38.239
brought up civil asset forfeiture. They
use that to give him to enhance the

537
00:47:38.280 --> 00:47:44.760
sentence to three consecutive life sentences,
but they're doing it to a lesser degree

538
00:47:44.800 --> 00:47:49.519
for a lot more people as well. At the sentencing phase of a trial,

539
00:47:50.119 --> 00:47:55.920
federal judges can enhance the defendant's sentences
for conduct that they were acquitted of.

540
00:47:57.960 --> 00:48:01.320
Again, Ross was not even indicted
or tried for this, But even

541
00:48:01.360 --> 00:48:05.880
if somebody has gone to trial and
been acquitted, the judge can pretend as

542
00:48:05.960 --> 00:48:09.840
if they were convicted of that and
use that to enhance their sentence. If

543
00:48:09.880 --> 00:48:14.719
the judge decides that it's more likely
than not that the defendant committed those offenses,

544
00:48:14.760 --> 00:48:16.639
so he doesn't really care what the
jury said. The judge thinks,

545
00:48:16.639 --> 00:48:20.079
so they say he's innocent. I
think he's guilty, So I'm going to

546
00:48:20.159 --> 00:48:23.760
charge him and punish him as if
he was guilty. So is that trial

547
00:48:23.800 --> 00:48:31.159
by jury or is that trial by
opinion? What is what is happening with

548
00:48:31.360 --> 00:48:37.039
that? That is simply opinion and
prejudice of the judges, not a trial.

549
00:48:37.079 --> 00:48:40.960
And we've seen judges essentially shut down
juries in every aspect. Uh,

550
00:48:42.119 --> 00:48:46.280
you're here to judge the facts of
the case, they say, not whether

551
00:48:46.320 --> 00:48:50.239
or not you like this law,
not whether or not you agree with the

552
00:48:50.280 --> 00:48:52.519
punishment that is attached to this Because
that's what jury nullification is about. Again,

553
00:48:52.599 --> 00:48:55.719
going back to the case of William
penn when he was still in England,

554
00:48:57.159 --> 00:49:00.599
they outlawed the Quaker church. The
people decided they're going to meet anyway,

555
00:49:00.920 --> 00:49:05.920
So then they padlocked the church building
doors and they met on the steps

556
00:49:05.960 --> 00:49:07.639
of the church building. And so
then they arrested William Pennon. When they

557
00:49:07.639 --> 00:49:13.920
took him to trial, the foreman
and the assistant foreman foreman's name was Edward

558
00:49:13.960 --> 00:49:19.119
Bushnell through it out and it was
clear what the law was, and it

559
00:49:19.159 --> 00:49:21.639
was clear what the penalty was,
and they said, no, we're going

560
00:49:21.719 --> 00:49:23.320
to say he's innocent. Because we
don't agree with the law. That's called

561
00:49:23.400 --> 00:49:29.679
jury nullification. And so then the
judge threw Edward Bushnell and the other guy

562
00:49:29.679 --> 00:49:32.440
whose name I don't recall into jail. Oh yeah, well, you don't

563
00:49:32.440 --> 00:49:37.039
want to put him in jail for
our making it a crime to belong to

564
00:49:37.079 --> 00:49:42.199
particular church like our ally, as
Zelenski's doing in Ukraine. Well, then

565
00:49:42.239 --> 00:49:45.760
we will throw you into jail.
You can take his place then, And

566
00:49:45.800 --> 00:49:52.320
so then their lawyer said, show
me the law that they violated, habeas

567
00:49:52.320 --> 00:49:58.079
corpus. The judg's, well,
show me the law that they violated when

568
00:49:58.119 --> 00:50:00.440
they nullified these laws as a jury. It's not against the law for a

569
00:50:00.480 --> 00:50:07.199
jury to nullify this, And so
other judge let them go. Established habeas

570
00:50:07.239 --> 00:50:13.079
corpus. But it also established dury
nullification clearly, and we follow that tradition

571
00:50:13.239 --> 00:50:16.920
in the United States and it is
explicitly protected in many state constitutions. But

572
00:50:17.039 --> 00:50:22.159
judges will tell people you're not here
to judge the law or the penalty,

573
00:50:22.239 --> 00:50:25.480
you're here to judge the facts of
the case. That's a lie. But

574
00:50:25.559 --> 00:50:30.880
even when they judge the facts of
the case and they say no, I

575
00:50:30.920 --> 00:50:35.760
don't think they proved their case the
judge says, well, I think they

576
00:50:35.800 --> 00:50:40.480
did. He overrides that as well. Isn't it amazing what an authoritarian dictatorship

577
00:50:42.679 --> 00:50:46.039
America has become at every level of
government, whether you're talking about a lot

578
00:50:46.039 --> 00:50:52.840
of these courts and judges or these
other government officials. And we saw that

579
00:50:52.880 --> 00:50:55.400
in twenty twenty in spades. Here's
another example of over punishment. This is

580
00:50:55.400 --> 00:51:02.199
a ten year old kid and he
was ated because somebody complained about well,

581
00:51:02.239 --> 00:51:06.599
don't just tell other facts of the
case here. This is Mississippi. A

582
00:51:06.639 --> 00:51:13.679
ten year old has been sentenced to
three months probation for urinating behind his mother's

583
00:51:13.679 --> 00:51:21.039
car. But the boy's mother is
refusing to sign the probation agreement. It's

584
00:51:21.039 --> 00:51:24.760
a regular probation. I thought it
was something that would be for a juvenile,

585
00:51:24.760 --> 00:51:30.920
but it's the same terms an adult
criminal would have said the family's attorney,

586
00:51:31.119 --> 00:51:36.840
we cannot in good conscience accept a
probation agreement that treats a ten year

587
00:51:36.840 --> 00:51:40.760
old child as a criminal. So
what it was his crime? Well,

588
00:51:40.800 --> 00:51:45.920
in August, this third grader,
whose name is Quantavius Easton, Quantavious,

589
00:51:47.280 --> 00:51:54.320
they have aspirations of Roman Empire for
him. I guess Quantavius was seen urinating

590
00:51:54.360 --> 00:52:01.639
behind his mother's car while she went
inside an attorney's office. Police saw Quantavius,

591
00:52:02.400 --> 00:52:06.800
arrested him, arrested the ten year
old, and took him to a

592
00:52:06.840 --> 00:52:10.679
local police station. According to the
boy's mother, Latanya Eson, her son

593
00:52:12.039 --> 00:52:16.559
was even placed inside a jail cell
despite posing no threat to the officers.

594
00:52:17.239 --> 00:52:23.920
Quantavius was charged with quote child in
need of supervision. It charged him with

595
00:52:23.960 --> 00:52:30.840
that, not the mother, and
a youth court judge sentenced him last week

596
00:52:30.119 --> 00:52:35.559
to three months of probation, as
well as a two page report on the

597
00:52:35.599 --> 00:52:40.559
late basketball player Kobe Bryant. Kobe
Bryant know how to use the restroom or

598
00:52:40.599 --> 00:52:46.840
something? Kobe Bryant? Did you
know that about him? He's evidently not

599
00:52:46.880 --> 00:52:52.320
only a master at playing basketball,
but he really knows how to use the

600
00:52:52.360 --> 00:53:00.480
restroom. The connection with that just
pure arbitrary nonsense. But this is the

601
00:53:00.480 --> 00:53:05.000
case that I wanted to give you
the background for. This is a situation

602
00:53:06.039 --> 00:53:13.760
where you now have an eighteen year
old being sentenced to life in a hospital

603
00:53:13.800 --> 00:53:19.559
prison for something they did when he
was sixteen, and you won't believe what

604
00:53:19.599 --> 00:53:22.000
he did. It's kind of like, you know, urinating behind his mother's

605
00:53:22.000 --> 00:53:27.079
car in a sense, and I'm
going to make light of this, even

606
00:53:27.119 --> 00:53:30.920
though they said all this cost the
company five million dollars in thousands of hours

607
00:53:30.920 --> 00:53:37.159
and employee shifts. The company is
Rockstar Games, the makers of this reprehensible

608
00:53:37.199 --> 00:53:43.159
but famous and successful game called Grand
Theft Auto. Version six is about to

609
00:53:43.159 --> 00:53:51.559
come out in twenty twenty five.
The previous version five came out in twenty

610
00:53:51.679 --> 00:53:54.000
thirteen. They've been working on this
for quite some time. So what did

611
00:53:54.039 --> 00:54:01.400
this eighteen year old do to these
people who promote every kind of reprehensible violent,

612
00:54:02.280 --> 00:54:08.239
sexual assault, mass murder, shooting, cop killing, flying planes in

613
00:54:08.280 --> 00:54:10.679
the buildings, all the rest of
stuff that's in the Grand Theft Auto.

614
00:54:12.039 --> 00:54:15.960
What was it that was the crime
of this person who's going to actually get

615
00:54:15.000 --> 00:54:20.599
life in prison. Was it anything
like they model and they have kids playing

616
00:54:20.599 --> 00:54:23.000
all the time. No, nothing
at all like that. What this guy

617
00:54:23.079 --> 00:54:32.320
did was he hacked into the company
and did he destroy their code? No.

618
00:54:34.719 --> 00:54:37.960
What he did was he released ninety
clips of the upcoming video game for

619
00:54:37.000 --> 00:54:45.480
people to watch on YouTube. What
he put out early trailer material, and

620
00:54:45.519 --> 00:54:47.360
they got millions, hundreds of millions
of views in a couple of days.

621
00:54:49.119 --> 00:54:52.559
Lawyers argued, well, he actually
promoted your game. People have been desperate

622
00:54:52.599 --> 00:54:55.719
for information about this for ten years, and so he showed people some clips

623
00:54:55.760 --> 00:55:01.119
of the game, and that got
these people who are very powerful and connected

624
00:55:01.159 --> 00:55:06.800
to the government angry. And if
you get somebody who's very powerful and connected

625
00:55:06.840 --> 00:55:09.239
to the government angry with you and
the government is corrupt like our government is,

626
00:55:09.280 --> 00:55:15.800
they can send you to jail for
life. He is in the UK.

627
00:55:15.519 --> 00:55:22.760
I believe this story covered by the
BBC. You'll only be released if

628
00:55:22.920 --> 00:55:28.840
medical professionals judge him to be no
longer dangerous. Well, what is the

629
00:55:28.880 --> 00:55:32.039
medical angle of this. Well,
this kid is a genius, but he's

630
00:55:32.039 --> 00:55:39.639
got autism, and so he is
an amazing hacker. He has been affiliated

631
00:55:39.719 --> 00:55:45.880
with a black hat group that has
broken into a lot of different things in

632
00:55:45.920 --> 00:55:47.920
the past. And as a matter
of fact, you know, he'd broken

633
00:55:47.920 --> 00:55:53.280
into Nvidia, a company that makes
very fast GPUs that are used for crypto

634
00:55:53.320 --> 00:55:57.719
mining and other things like that.
So he'd broken into some of these places

635
00:55:57.719 --> 00:56:01.760
with these other people. They had
him in custody and they had taken away

636
00:56:01.800 --> 00:56:07.679
his computer. But listen to this, Despite having his computer taken away,

637
00:56:07.800 --> 00:56:15.480
he broke into Rockstar Games, the
developer of Grand Theft Auto six. What

638
00:56:15.559 --> 00:56:20.800
did he use after they took his
computer away? He used an Amazon firestick,

639
00:56:21.639 --> 00:56:25.519
a Hotel TV, and a mobile
phone, and he was able to

640
00:56:25.559 --> 00:56:32.719
break into their system and grab trailer
shots of what's gonna what the game is

641
00:56:32.719 --> 00:56:37.920
going to look like. Isn't that
amazing? Perhaps he going to keep him

642
00:56:37.920 --> 00:56:43.119
in prison because they want to put
him on some kind of a mission impossible

643
00:56:43.159 --> 00:56:49.320
team. Uh it takes the Leissan
firestick, his phone, and the hotel

644
00:56:49.400 --> 00:56:57.599
TV and does this. Mental health
review showed that he quote continued to express

645
00:56:57.639 --> 00:57:02.519
intent to return to cybercrime as soon
as possible. Prior to his September twenty

646
00:57:02.599 --> 00:57:07.599
twenty two arrest, he had been
a member of an international cybercrime group called

647
00:57:07.800 --> 00:57:12.039
Lapsus Dollar. I haven't talked to
Goatree about this. I have to get

648
00:57:12.039 --> 00:57:14.960
his opinion on this. That's what
he's on the other side. You know,

649
00:57:15.000 --> 00:57:21.920
he's doing the cybersecurity protection against people
like this. He was on bail

650
00:57:22.360 --> 00:57:27.039
for hacking and video and BT slash
ee. I don't know who that is.

651
00:57:27.039 --> 00:57:30.280
Is that a game company, Travis, you know, I don't know.

652
00:57:31.239 --> 00:57:37.360
And he's placed under police protection at
a hotel but again, you know,

653
00:57:37.400 --> 00:57:38.960
he just uses a firestick, a
hotel TV, and a mobile phone

654
00:57:38.960 --> 00:57:44.159
and he gets into g GTA six
and he releases all this stuff. His

655
00:57:44.280 --> 00:57:49.840
legal team claimed that the trailer that
he put out that he got from them

656
00:57:50.400 --> 00:57:54.119
got one hundred and twenty eight million
views on YouTube in just its first four

657
00:57:54.199 --> 00:58:01.079
days, suggesting that the hack did
not harm rock Star Games. But according

658
00:58:01.119 --> 00:58:05.320
to them, it cost them five
million dollars in thousands of hours and employee

659
00:58:05.320 --> 00:58:09.119
shifts. They come after people who
are hackers that they catch them like this,

660
00:58:09.199 --> 00:58:15.079
they come after them with draconian measures. Aaron Schwartz who was not a

661
00:58:15.119 --> 00:58:20.400
hacker, but he was an activist
who resisted SISPA, Sopa acta Pippa,

662
00:58:20.440 --> 00:58:22.679
and then they finally got SISA through
after they killed Aaron Swartz. I believe

663
00:58:22.679 --> 00:58:25.920
they killed him. They started coming
after him. They said, well,

664
00:58:25.960 --> 00:58:30.440
he logged onto the computer at MIT
and he didn't have the credentials and everything.

665
00:58:30.480 --> 00:58:39.039
So they got a woman who was
a federal prosecutor up in Massachusetts.

666
00:58:39.119 --> 00:58:45.559
They were grooming her to become governor
Carmine or Teas, And at first,

667
00:58:45.559 --> 00:58:47.559
you know, she's talking about how
she's going to come after him with a

668
00:58:47.559 --> 00:58:52.840
lot of you know, penalties and
things like that. Then he supposedly committed

669
00:58:52.880 --> 00:59:00.239
suicide and people got really angry with
her driving this guy who'd become I'm a

670
00:59:00.280 --> 00:59:05.199
hero to a lot of people because
he had worked against government censorship and surveillance.

671
00:59:06.199 --> 00:59:10.400
And her husband tweeted out a thing
and said, no, she just

672
00:59:10.480 --> 00:59:14.559
offered him if he confessed, you
just offered him, you know, like

673
00:59:15.000 --> 00:59:21.800
a short sentence with a suspended on
probation and that type of thing. She

674
00:59:21.840 --> 00:59:24.880
didn't drive him to suicide. And
then he took that down because they didn't

675
00:59:24.880 --> 00:59:30.360
want people to realize that maybe he
had been killed. But it's been ten

676
00:59:30.480 --> 00:59:34.800
years since the previous version of Grand
Theft Auto. And when you think about

677
00:59:34.840 --> 00:59:39.679
his crime versus what Grand Theft Auto
portrays, Yeah, we just had somebody,

678
00:59:39.760 --> 00:59:44.039
I don't know the story of this
guy, somebody in Prague who went

679
00:59:44.079 --> 00:59:47.400
on a mass shooting spree. Why
is it that we see this kind of

680
00:59:47.400 --> 00:59:51.639
stuff that we didn't used to see. Well, if you go back to

681
00:59:51.679 --> 00:59:57.559
twenty thirteen, when the previous version
of Grand Theft Auto was released, this

682
00:59:57.639 --> 01:00:07.159
publication called the gamer dot com UH
talked about the fifteen most despicable acts that

683
01:00:07.239 --> 01:00:12.639
you can commit in grand theft auto
and after these other acts they would say,

684
01:00:12.639 --> 01:00:15.079
and we love them, Yeah,
we love doing this and we love

685
01:00:15.119 --> 01:00:17.440
it. And of course they make
it clear they can understand the difference between

686
01:00:17.440 --> 01:00:21.360
somebody playing a game and what real
life is. I say, we understand

687
01:00:21.360 --> 01:00:23.679
that difference. Well, you know, you've got a lot of people and

688
01:00:23.920 --> 01:00:28.960
who don't understand that difference, because
you've got a lot of people like the

689
01:00:29.039 --> 01:00:34.440
Nashville killer, probably like this person
who just shut all these people in Prague,

690
01:00:34.519 --> 01:00:39.119
they don't understand the difference. I
understand that there's MK Ultra programs and

691
01:00:39.159 --> 01:00:43.199
all that. Don't You don't have
to remind me of that. You don't

692
01:00:43.239 --> 01:00:45.960
have to think that I don't understand
what that is. But there's other aspects

693
01:00:45.000 --> 01:00:49.199
of this stuff that's out there as
well. As I've said, I think

694
01:00:49.199 --> 01:00:52.719
the reason they won't release the manifesto
of this training killer it just shows you

695
01:00:53.800 --> 01:01:00.320
whether these people are capable of in
terms of driving some people over the edge.

696
01:01:02.000 --> 01:01:05.079
Yeah, you look at MK Ultra, but you know you can do

697
01:01:05.239 --> 01:01:07.719
that to people with this transgender stuff. As I've said before, make them

698
01:01:08.119 --> 01:01:15.159
hate themselves, hate your skin color, hate your sex, your gender,

699
01:01:15.880 --> 01:01:21.280
and then hate everybody and go and
kill them. You know, let's not

700
01:01:22.960 --> 01:01:28.559
miss the clear forest that is in
front of us, because we're studying the

701
01:01:28.559 --> 01:01:31.760
tree of mk Ultra. Yes they've
used that, but take a look at

702
01:01:31.760 --> 01:01:37.239
what they're doing in a blanket way
through the schools, through the entertainment,

703
01:01:37.280 --> 01:01:38.840
through the games, through the films, and all the rest of this stuff.

704
01:01:39.840 --> 01:01:44.079
And so here's an example. The
Gamer was saying this in twenty thirteen

705
01:01:44.079 --> 01:01:49.639
when the last Grand Theft Auto came
out. Even among the violent video games

706
01:01:49.679 --> 01:01:52.960
out there, Grand Theft Auto stands
in a class all its own, says

707
01:01:53.039 --> 01:02:00.280
the Gamer. Nobody can beat the
original crime themed open world masterpiece series.

708
01:02:00.320 --> 01:02:06.400
There will always be GTA. Every
other game of this kind is just an

709
01:02:06.440 --> 01:02:10.920
imitator. This magical franchise tends to
bring a new set of controversies with it

710
01:02:10.960 --> 01:02:16.639
everywhere it goes. They've continued the
trend with a Grand Theft GTA five.

711
01:02:16.800 --> 01:02:22.159
They've continued the trend of increasing the
violence and becoming more and more controversial to

712
01:02:22.239 --> 01:02:29.519
keep up with how sick and maniacal
mainstream society continues to become. They say,

713
01:02:29.559 --> 01:02:34.400
what a time to be alive well
again? Cause or effect? Which

714
01:02:34.440 --> 01:02:37.079
one is the cause? Which one
is the effect? We always have this

715
01:02:37.159 --> 01:02:40.320
argument when we talk about content.
And I know I'm sounding like Tipper Gore

716
01:02:40.320 --> 01:02:45.079
here, but occasionally liberals can get
something right. But when we look at

717
01:02:45.079 --> 01:02:47.039
this, is it a cause or
effect? Or are they just reinforcing each

718
01:02:47.039 --> 01:02:51.239
other? Is it an echo chamber? I think that's what is happening here.

719
01:02:52.719 --> 01:02:55.360
I think is an echo chamber that
amplifies. And both of these things

720
01:02:55.400 --> 01:03:01.400
amplify each other. Of course,
they said about GTA five in twenty thirteen.

721
01:03:02.440 --> 01:03:06.880
Of course, beating people with baseball
bats and shooting them with small arms

722
01:03:06.880 --> 01:03:12.960
and driving full speed into them with
vehicles is one thing. But part of

723
01:03:12.960 --> 01:03:16.159
the beauty of this series is that
they've sold over two hundred and fifty million

724
01:03:16.199 --> 01:03:22.079
games by allowing the player to get
more creative than that. While it may

725
01:03:22.119 --> 01:03:28.440
be in poor taste and while it
may be borderline obscene, we know the

726
01:03:28.480 --> 01:03:32.199
difference between real life and a video
game. So we're going to count down

727
01:03:32.400 --> 01:03:37.320
fifteen to the most despicable acts a
player can commit in Grand Theft Auto,

728
01:03:37.840 --> 01:03:43.039
and we're going to go We're going
for more than just shooting people, vehicular

729
01:03:43.119 --> 01:03:47.119
homicide and brutal assaults with weapons.
Here, those are not a big deal

730
01:03:47.199 --> 01:03:52.199
in this series. So again,
are we causing mass killers? Are we

731
01:03:53.360 --> 01:03:59.360
amplifying the effect of that? Are
we generating feedback effect for that as well?

732
01:04:01.079 --> 01:04:03.079
So first one, I'll just show
a little bit of this. I'm

733
01:04:03.079 --> 01:04:08.840
not going to go over every one
of these in detail. But again,

734
01:04:09.519 --> 01:04:15.079
this is grand theft auto and this
is how you can kill people by drowning

735
01:04:15.199 --> 01:04:18.320
them or you know, shooting them. So here's a guy whos running down

736
01:04:18.360 --> 01:04:23.400
a dock and now he pulls out
a gun and I was just going to

737
01:04:23.440 --> 01:04:27.519
start shooting at people, and some
of the people he shoots, and some

738
01:04:27.559 --> 01:04:30.199
of the people he scares off the
dock and they jump into the water.

739
01:04:30.239 --> 01:04:32.599
And then as he gets to the
end of the dock and looks down,

740
01:04:34.239 --> 01:04:38.920
he sees people who are floating in
the water, dead, not moving.

741
01:04:39.639 --> 01:04:42.199
And there we go, kill both
people. Now let's shoot some people.

742
01:04:42.760 --> 01:04:45.119
Yeah that great? Isn't that fun? I mean, what a way to

743
01:04:45.360 --> 01:04:53.119
entertain yourself. Feel free to drop
in if you disagree with this. Travis

744
01:04:53.239 --> 01:04:56.639
is somebody who plays games. Another
thing you can do is killing ladies of

745
01:04:56.679 --> 01:05:01.079
the night, as I say,
to get your money back, shooting prostitutes,

746
01:05:01.519 --> 01:05:04.519
targeting cops, Yeah, that's another
thing that you can do. Or

747
01:05:04.599 --> 01:05:09.000
you can fly planes in the buildings
and Reenact nine to eleven. They let

748
01:05:09.039 --> 01:05:13.199
you do that. In Grand Theft
Auto you can put somebody in the trunk

749
01:05:13.239 --> 01:05:16.079
of your car and then push them
off a cliff. And this fun.

750
01:05:16.239 --> 01:05:23.559
Don't you love games? Games?
This is a six society and it's getting

751
01:05:23.599 --> 01:05:25.559
sicker. And this is one of
the reasons why, as I said,

752
01:05:26.000 --> 01:05:31.039
this feedback amplification blowing somebody up on
National TV. Or you can play a

753
01:05:31.119 --> 01:05:35.920
fetch with a dog using a hand
grenade. Oh that's loads of laughs,

754
01:05:35.960 --> 01:05:42.360
isn't it. You know, people
think that these things don't have any effect

755
01:05:42.360 --> 01:05:50.239
on them. Do you realize when
they want to sell you their brand of

756
01:05:50.320 --> 01:05:56.960
margarine? Why did these people spend
millions of dollars on it? Edward Burnees

757
01:05:57.599 --> 01:06:00.480
knew that that got people into World
War One and other things like that.

758
01:06:00.519 --> 01:06:05.400
Propaganda for Woodrow Wilson. He goes
to Madison Avenue. You may think that

759
01:06:05.440 --> 01:06:09.719
you're not susceptible of this stuff,
but when you go to the grocery store,

760
01:06:09.920 --> 01:06:13.000
you're going to be more likely to
grab the thing that you're familiar with.

761
01:06:13.079 --> 01:06:15.920
And all these other things. They
have a way to provide this.

762
01:06:16.000 --> 01:06:20.320
And so I say, we always
talk about things like MK Ultra, but

763
01:06:20.360 --> 01:06:28.199
we don't talk about how the culture
is being dragged to hell, not just

764
01:06:28.239 --> 01:06:31.920
by drag Queen's Storytime Hours, which
you understand the influence of that has and

765
01:06:32.000 --> 01:06:39.760
these things have influence on young people. They harden them to violence. It's

766
01:06:39.800 --> 01:06:42.360
no longer shocking, you get accustomed
to it. It's one of the reasons

767
01:06:42.400 --> 01:06:45.320
why the games and the movies become
more and more violent all the time.

768
01:06:45.360 --> 01:06:49.639
Well, because you get it's all
there to shock you. And so whether

769
01:06:49.639 --> 01:06:53.599
you look at a horror film or
you look at something that's got a lot

770
01:06:53.639 --> 01:06:57.440
of sexual content, and it's got
to continually, continually go to the next

771
01:06:57.480 --> 01:07:00.480
thing, just like a drug,
right, got to get some harder.

772
01:07:00.559 --> 01:07:03.920
That's not getting me the fix anymore. And so that's why you see this

773
01:07:04.000 --> 01:07:09.360
kind of stuff. And you can
do sexual assault of people and grand theft

774
01:07:09.400 --> 01:07:17.719
auto and you can also torture people, you can waterboard people and all the

775
01:07:17.800 --> 01:07:21.440
rest of this stuff. That's what
they put in in twenty thirteen. So

776
01:07:23.239 --> 01:07:30.320
again, this guy, his crime
was not any of this, although he

777
01:07:30.400 --> 01:07:33.559
probably loves his stuff and he doesn't
well why shouldn't I be able to just

778
01:07:33.599 --> 01:07:40.599
hack in and show people this wonderful
program that we all love. But no,

779
01:07:40.719 --> 01:07:43.679
he just he showed what they were
working on. He showed their trailers,

780
01:07:45.039 --> 01:07:50.199
and so he gets a life in
prison in a mental institution. Because

781
01:07:50.199 --> 01:07:57.679
if you mess with these rich proverbs
who produce this garbage like this, you

782
01:07:57.719 --> 01:08:01.119
get life in prison, not them, They get rich. Yeah, the

783
01:08:01.360 --> 01:08:05.000
rock Star Games just say it's just
a game, it's just for miners.

784
01:08:05.159 --> 01:08:08.440
Well, you know they're the people
who are going to take it more seriously,

785
01:08:08.639 --> 01:08:13.320
aren't they. But because he shows
their trailer, something's going to come

786
01:08:13.320 --> 01:08:16.720
out. In twenty twenty five,
I saw one article said that he had

787
01:08:17.000 --> 01:08:20.920
gotten some code. Even if he
released their code, I'm sorry, that's

788
01:08:21.000 --> 01:08:27.720
not worth a life in prison.
What if he did some of the other

789
01:08:27.760 --> 01:08:31.439
stuff. What if he shot up
the people at Rockstar Games like they portray

790
01:08:32.000 --> 01:08:36.199
being done everywhere. Would that be
a serious crime. I don't know,

791
01:08:36.279 --> 01:08:42.359
you know what, what is the
standard of that we have anymore? We

792
01:08:42.399 --> 01:08:45.319
can just make this stuff up,
can't we. We're going to take a

793
01:08:45.399 --> 01:08:47.960
quick break and when we come back, we're going to talk a little bit

794
01:08:48.000 --> 01:08:51.840
about some other news. I want
to talk a little bit about war in

795
01:08:51.880 --> 01:08:59.079
the context of Christmas and a time
that we talk about peace on earth.

796
01:08:59.560 --> 01:09:35.640
We're going to be right back.
Stay with us. You're listening to the

797
01:09:35.840 --> 01:09:44.479
David Knight Show. Looking for better
information. Apsradionews dot com features articles and

798
01:09:44.520 --> 01:09:49.000
commentary along with audio from all the
top news from around the world. Apsradionews

799
01:09:49.000 --> 01:09:56.359
dot com well as we talk about
excessive penalties and punishment. In Australia,

800
01:09:56.760 --> 01:10:03.079
their e Safety Commissioner has initiated a
civil penalty proceedings against Elon Musk's Twitter now

801
01:10:03.199 --> 01:10:10.680
called X seven hundred and eighty thousand
dollars fine per day. Is that excessive,

802
01:10:11.960 --> 01:10:14.600
Well, it would be for pretty
much anybody but the world's richest man.

803
01:10:14.680 --> 01:10:16.720
Quite frankly, you know this nearly
you know, three quarters of a

804
01:10:16.760 --> 01:10:26.399
million dollars, and that could bankrupt
Elon Musk in eight hundred years. That's

805
01:10:26.399 --> 01:10:30.920
how much money he's got. I
mean, it's like we saw the same

806
01:10:30.000 --> 01:10:33.000
thing happen in Texas as we were
moving out. We didn't know it,

807
01:10:33.039 --> 01:10:39.479
but Elon Musk was moving into the
county where we lived, and he was

808
01:10:39.520 --> 01:10:44.960
doing all kinds of things with you
know, he's got his boring company and

809
01:10:45.039 --> 01:10:47.640
he had SpaceX had a headquarters there
and anything. So he was expanding this

810
01:10:47.680 --> 01:10:51.000
stuff out and a building kind of
a complex there. He's going to have

811
01:10:51.039 --> 01:10:55.319
some housing for some of his employees
and stuff like that. But you know

812
01:10:55.439 --> 01:11:00.760
the people who said, well,
we've got we want you to here.

813
01:11:00.960 --> 01:11:01.720
You got to have your sewer connection, he says, now, I'm not

814
01:11:01.760 --> 01:11:05.359
gonna bother with that. I'm just
gonna dump into the Colorado River. What

815
01:11:06.000 --> 01:11:10.640
and then this is what we would
like you to do in terms of your

816
01:11:10.800 --> 01:11:13.239
curb cuts into the road. It's
like, I'm not gonna bother with that.

817
01:11:13.239 --> 01:11:15.000
I'm gonna do it the way I
want to do it. And uh

818
01:11:15.159 --> 01:11:18.800
so they started finding him and he
said, I don't care what these fines

819
01:11:18.800 --> 01:11:23.000
are. Keep doing what you're doing. We'll pay the fines. I don't

820
01:11:23.000 --> 01:11:26.319
care. To the extent that the
people in that county said, well,

821
01:11:26.319 --> 01:11:28.119
what are we going to do?
Do we raise these fines? I mean,

822
01:11:28.159 --> 01:11:31.199
the finds are already really high for
ordinary people, but for Elon Musk,

823
01:11:31.239 --> 01:11:33.319
he just blows it off. And
I'm telling you, you know,

824
01:11:33.359 --> 01:11:40.800
when people get this this has just
happened in Australia, and then of course

825
01:11:40.800 --> 01:11:43.079
there's going to be. The European
Union is going to do the same thing,

826
01:11:44.000 --> 01:11:48.880
and you're going to see an echo
chamber from the mainstream alternative media,

827
01:11:50.039 --> 01:11:54.319
Maga bird press. Look at this, Look at our billionaire savior. How

828
01:11:54.319 --> 01:11:57.359
they're coming after him. Poor guy. You know he's gonna they're got to

829
01:11:57.399 --> 01:12:04.880
bankrupt him in a thousand years.
He knows what he's doing. He'll probably

830
01:12:04.920 --> 01:12:08.800
take these fines and keep going.
And I'm glad that he's going to keep

831
01:12:08.840 --> 01:12:12.000
something open that is supposedly free speech, but it's not free speech if you

832
01:12:12.039 --> 01:12:17.479
don't if you're critical of Elon Musk, you know that's he'll let you be

833
01:12:17.520 --> 01:12:19.720
critical of other people, not of
him. You know, that type of

834
01:12:19.800 --> 01:12:23.560
thing. So again, keep that
in mind. You know when you look

835
01:12:23.600 --> 01:12:29.000
at this, Yes, it is
horrible. The EU and these other governments

836
01:12:29.039 --> 01:12:32.399
in Australia and the United States especially
don't want to have any free speech,

837
01:12:33.640 --> 01:12:38.159
and that is reprehensible. I'm not
excusing that whatsoever. But I'm just saying

838
01:12:38.800 --> 01:12:43.279
that he can afford to do this
science and it is he's not even going

839
01:12:43.319 --> 01:12:50.640
to feel it. It's nothing to
him. But we've got this article on

840
01:12:50.840 --> 01:12:58.079
Nature came out on Wednesday said if
you're doing your own research. You hear

841
01:12:58.119 --> 01:13:00.640
all this stuff, Do your own
research. I say that, people say

842
01:13:00.640 --> 01:13:03.159
that, do your own research.
You know, here's what I'm telling you.

843
01:13:03.199 --> 01:13:06.000
But look it up, see if
that's true. Look it up yourself.

844
01:13:06.920 --> 01:13:12.079
Don't simply believe it because Fauci tells
you. Don't simply believe that the

845
01:13:12.119 --> 01:13:15.479
vaccine is harmless because Alex wants to
promote Trump and says Trump's not giving you

846
01:13:15.520 --> 01:13:19.199
the bad stuff. He's given you
sugar water. Yeah, they're taking this

847
01:13:19.439 --> 01:13:26.840
COVID virus which has not been isolated, and they're going to kill and weaken

848
01:13:26.880 --> 01:13:29.800
it. Well, you know,
a virus is if there are viruses.

849
01:13:30.359 --> 01:13:33.880
They've never claimed that a virus was
alive like bacteria, something you can't see.

850
01:13:33.920 --> 01:13:38.920
So again, it's a model.
It's a representation like our different representations

851
01:13:39.640 --> 01:13:46.479
of the universe, you know,
and planetary movement or of the atom itself.

852
01:13:46.520 --> 01:13:49.359
These things are always changing all the
time, you know, going from

853
01:13:49.399 --> 01:13:55.359
the Neil's boor model of the atom
to quantum physics and stuff like that.

854
01:13:55.720 --> 01:13:58.319
I don't know if there's a virus
or not. I don't know if that's

855
01:13:58.359 --> 01:14:01.840
the correct way to explain the disease
that's out there we're seeing pathogens or what

856
01:14:01.840 --> 01:14:05.079
we're seeing. But you know,
if you were going to inoculate somebody with

857
01:14:05.520 --> 01:14:11.279
something is caused by a bacteria which
you can see, and you would weaken

858
01:14:11.399 --> 01:14:15.760
or kill it. That's not what
that was about. Alex knew that it

859
01:14:15.800 --> 01:14:18.840
was an MRA code that was going
to come in and reprogram your DNA and

860
01:14:18.880 --> 01:14:21.960
be self replicating. Why is he
telling people that it's going to be weakened

861
01:14:23.039 --> 01:14:26.520
or attenuated and it's like sugar water. But if you're getting bad information like

862
01:14:26.560 --> 01:14:30.399
that, you need to do your
own research, you know, and understand

863
01:14:30.399 --> 01:14:31.159
where people are coming from. So
why I mention it? You need to

864
01:14:31.239 --> 01:14:36.640
understand that they're going to lie to
you to further their agenda. The Fauci's

865
01:14:36.680 --> 01:14:40.119
going to lie to you to further
his agenda. Trump is going to lie

866
01:14:40.159 --> 01:14:43.560
to you to further his agenda.
Alex is going to lie to you to

867
01:14:43.600 --> 01:14:46.800
further his agenda. They've got an
agenda and they don't care what happens to

868
01:14:46.920 --> 01:14:55.600
you, you see, and so
these people are running it. This article

869
01:14:55.640 --> 01:15:00.159
on Nature said we did an experiment. We got three thousand Americans and showed

870
01:15:00.319 --> 01:15:04.840
people who had been nudged. That's
their term nudged, because that's what they're

871
01:15:04.880 --> 01:15:11.279
constantly doing. They're constantly nudging you
in a direction. Very subtle propaganda is

872
01:15:11.279 --> 01:15:15.840
what they call nudging. People have
been nudged to do research online were nineteen

873
01:15:15.920 --> 01:15:21.960
percent more likely to believe a false
or misleading article over those who only looked

874
01:15:21.960 --> 01:15:28.680
at reputable sources. And you know
what they're saying here, if you got

875
01:15:29.239 --> 01:15:31.560
people who do their own research,
nineteen percent of them realize that we're selling

876
01:15:31.560 --> 01:15:35.079
them a bill of goods and lying
to them about a government or an official

877
01:15:35.159 --> 01:15:40.600
narrative they portray, Well, you
know, people do their own research,

878
01:15:41.119 --> 01:15:45.760
they're going to get involved in misinformation. No, they're going to find information

879
01:15:45.119 --> 01:15:50.239
that they missed, information that the
government didn't want them to see. And

880
01:15:50.279 --> 01:15:56.680
then they're not going to believe the
government's lies, which they the government says,

881
01:15:56.720 --> 01:16:01.319
well, that's misinformation then. And
so in this context, by the

882
01:16:01.319 --> 01:16:06.279
way, you have Donald Tusk,
who is part of the EU, part

883
01:16:06.279 --> 01:16:12.000
of their censorship, and they're,
you know, one of the core globalists.

884
01:16:12.039 --> 01:16:16.359
They just had an election in Poland, and Poland the Conservatives lost and

885
01:16:16.399 --> 01:16:25.000
they put Donald Tusk in. Immediately
sees the major TV station there, the

886
01:16:25.039 --> 01:16:28.239
government TV station, that's one of
the reasons why you don't want to have

887
01:16:28.279 --> 01:16:32.000
government TV. But you can imagine
what would happen here. For example,

888
01:16:34.079 --> 01:16:39.680
you know Trump gets in what if
he arrests the people who are running PBS

889
01:16:39.680 --> 01:16:43.000
and NPR. I know, I
know you want to see. You'd like

890
01:16:43.079 --> 01:16:45.920
to see that happen. I would
not be too upset to see that either,

891
01:16:45.960 --> 01:16:49.239
except for the president that it sets
right because the next time, you

892
01:16:49.279 --> 01:16:53.720
know, every time you have a
change of election, you know, the

893
01:16:54.319 --> 01:16:58.920
people like Zelenski or the people like
Donald Tusk that are allied with the Biden

894
01:16:58.920 --> 01:17:02.880
administration, our government, they want
to throw their opponents into jail. We

895
01:17:02.960 --> 01:17:06.720
don't want to have a system like
that, but that's what is happening in

896
01:17:06.960 --> 01:17:12.359
Poland right now. So yes,
do not believe any narrative except what we

897
01:17:12.479 --> 01:17:16.039
give you, and that is essentially
what all these corrupted institutions are saying.

898
01:17:16.119 --> 01:17:24.840
The National Sex Ed Conference has a
webinar to explain to people that children are

899
01:17:24.840 --> 01:17:28.439
in danger if parents have us any
kind of a say in sex education.

900
01:17:29.079 --> 01:17:31.439
No, no, the people who
are in danger. If parents have a

901
01:17:31.520 --> 01:17:35.000
say in sex education, if parents
understand what's being talked to their kids,

902
01:17:35.039 --> 01:17:40.479
the people are in danger of these
sex educators, these groomers with what they're

903
01:17:40.479 --> 01:17:45.079
doing today, but they portray it
as the parents would give false information to

904
01:17:45.159 --> 01:17:49.319
these kids and endanger them. No, they're being endangered by groomers who pretend

905
01:17:49.319 --> 01:17:58.560
that miners have the maturity to mutilate
themselves sexually because of the gas lighting that

906
01:17:58.720 --> 01:18:04.199
is being done to them by the
so called educators that are there. You

907
01:18:04.239 --> 01:18:10.800
know, it is kind of interesting
and I'm not going to take the time

908
01:18:10.800 --> 01:18:15.199
to talk about it today. I
might talk about it at another point,

909
01:18:15.359 --> 01:18:23.319
but there is in the UK.
The institution that was at the forefront of

910
01:18:23.359 --> 01:18:30.479
all this gender gas lighting that's happening
to minor kids was Tavistock, and a

911
01:18:30.520 --> 01:18:35.039
guy who worked there for over a
decade has now left and they're going to

912
01:18:35.039 --> 01:18:40.399
close it down at the beginning of
this next year because it's such an outrage

913
01:18:40.399 --> 01:18:42.479
in the UK. And one of
the guys who was working there has written

914
01:18:42.520 --> 01:18:45.560
a book exposing all this stuff as
well. That's all come out and even

915
01:18:45.560 --> 01:18:49.880
in the UK they're shutting this thing
down. And he talked about how there

916
01:18:50.199 --> 01:18:58.960
was he called it Transhausen by proxy
in other words, like Munchausen by proxy.

917
01:18:59.039 --> 01:19:02.119
So the parents are bringing these kids
in and saying, here's my three

918
01:19:02.199 --> 01:19:06.640
year old and they identify as being
a different gender, and we're preparing him

919
01:19:06.640 --> 01:19:10.680
and all this other kinds. We
all know that's not coming from the kid.

920
01:19:10.720 --> 01:19:13.520
It's coming from the parents. And
they're doing this in the same way.

921
01:19:14.159 --> 01:19:18.520
And when people talk about Munchausen by
proxy, that's these psychiatrists saying,

922
01:19:18.520 --> 01:19:23.840
well, the parents are doing this
to the kid simply because they want attention

923
01:19:25.039 --> 01:19:30.880
or because you know, they they
want everybody to focus on them. And

924
01:19:31.239 --> 01:19:36.800
so Mary Ellen Moore of FreeMind Films
has sent this to us, and I

925
01:19:36.840 --> 01:19:40.359
want to thank her for that,
thank her for supporting the show. She

926
01:19:40.399 --> 01:19:43.560
said, I'm in the UK for
a few days and she said, look

927
01:19:43.600 --> 01:19:47.119
at these headlines that are here.
Maybe the people here are starting to wake

928
01:19:47.239 --> 01:19:51.920
up. And here's the headline from
the Daily Telegraph. Schools told to presume

929
01:19:53.039 --> 01:19:58.760
that children cannot change their gender.
Again. The worm has turned in the

930
01:19:58.880 --> 01:20:02.680
UK. They're shutting down Tavis talk. This guy's got a book that has

931
01:20:02.800 --> 01:20:06.319
just been released, is blowing the
whistle on all this stuff. And now

932
01:20:06.359 --> 01:20:13.279
they're starting to switch. And sent
me the article talking about what they're doing

933
01:20:13.319 --> 01:20:19.279
there. But I'm going to talk
about that at another time. I have

934
01:20:19.359 --> 01:20:23.279
a couple more things that I want
to say here in the context of culture,

935
01:20:24.039 --> 01:20:26.600
but I don't really want to get
into this stuff today. I'm really

936
01:20:26.680 --> 01:20:30.800
kind of sick of it, frankly, and I'll just quickly mention, this

937
01:20:30.840 --> 01:20:35.640
is what a lot of people are
talking about with this kid's program, co

938
01:20:36.399 --> 01:20:40.720
Camelan, I guess is the way
Cocomelan. It's the way he pronouns that.

939
01:20:40.720 --> 01:20:43.319
Okay, Travis is nodding as idiot. How do you know about this

940
01:20:43.359 --> 01:20:50.600
thing? There's a Netflix kid that
they show that they're using to groom toddlers.

941
01:20:51.600 --> 01:20:57.840
It's crazy, especially because it's not
even the latest thing that has gotten

942
01:20:57.880 --> 01:21:02.600
the attention. Is this kid.
He's got two dads and they little boy,

943
01:21:03.039 --> 01:21:05.920
and they put him in a two
two and he dances. And you've

944
01:21:05.960 --> 01:21:10.199
got your little toddlers who are watching
this. You want to talk about grooming,

945
01:21:10.600 --> 01:21:14.600
You want to talk about sex education. I mean, Disney and Netflix

946
01:21:14.600 --> 01:21:17.880
will groom your kids? Are you
going to let these people have access to

947
01:21:17.920 --> 01:21:20.119
your kids? Are you going to
set your kids in front of the TV

948
01:21:20.199 --> 01:21:27.000
set and let these perverts baby set
your kids? Because that's what you're really

949
01:21:27.000 --> 01:21:30.520
doing. You're letting perverts baby sit
your kids. And so long before this

950
01:21:30.600 --> 01:21:34.840
happened, As Breitbart points out,
there's been accusations long before they were promoting

951
01:21:34.840 --> 01:21:39.800
this cross dressing and all the rest
of this stuff. There were other accusations

952
01:21:40.880 --> 01:21:45.680
about how it was creating anger issues, ADHD, autism, speech delays,

953
01:21:46.880 --> 01:21:50.279
all kinds of behavioral issues, and
how it was addicting the kids. One

954
01:21:50.319 --> 01:21:55.560
mother said, I put my kids
in and started watching this thing, and

955
01:21:55.560 --> 01:22:00.880
they became like zombies. They were
mesmerized by what they saw, she said.

956
01:22:00.920 --> 01:22:03.760
She told Newsweek, I knew it
was affecting him because he would be

957
01:22:03.800 --> 01:22:08.960
in a daze while watching it.
You could wave your hand right in front

958
01:22:09.000 --> 01:22:14.840
of his face and he wouldn't move. It was almost scary, almost scary,

959
01:22:15.520 --> 01:22:17.760
almost scary, but he didn't scare
you did it. It didn't scary

960
01:22:17.880 --> 01:22:23.079
enough to cancel your Netflix subscription.
And I got to say, you know,

961
01:22:23.199 --> 01:22:25.520
if you're there's a lot of different
ways if you want to watch movies,

962
01:22:25.560 --> 01:22:27.800
there's a lot of different ways that
you can do it without feeding that

963
01:22:27.880 --> 01:22:32.000
monster. Because even if you're not
putting your kids or grandkids in front of

964
01:22:32.079 --> 01:22:39.640
Coco Melon, you're feeding the people
that put that stuff out, the people

965
01:22:39.640 --> 01:22:45.079
who give Barack Obama Michelle Obama millions, tens of millions, undreds of millions

966
01:22:45.119 --> 01:22:50.079
of dollars to create propaganda garbage for
adults. Stop feeding that thing. One

967
01:22:50.119 --> 01:22:56.760
commenter described the show as baby cocaine. He said, taking the kids away

968
01:22:56.760 --> 01:23:03.840
from the cartoon can lead to quote
very real symptoms of withdrawal because they're addicted

969
01:23:03.880 --> 01:23:09.359
to it. The phenomenon, says
bright Bart, appear to be linked to

970
01:23:09.399 --> 01:23:13.640
the spike and the cartoon's popularity during
the COVID nineteen lockdowns of twenty twenty.

971
01:23:13.880 --> 01:23:16.560
No, it wasn't a COVID lockdown. It wasn't COVID nineteen lockdowns, bright

972
01:23:16.600 --> 01:23:24.840
Bart, it was Trump lockdowns.
During the Trump lockdowns of twenty twenty one,

973
01:23:24.880 --> 01:23:30.119
popular TikTok account claim that the show
is addictive because it is edited in

974
01:23:30.159 --> 01:23:34.439
a way that it creates over stimulation
for kids. Do you think they know

975
01:23:34.520 --> 01:23:39.640
that. I think they know that. I think they know exactly what they're

976
01:23:39.680 --> 01:23:45.840
doing. We're gonna take a quick
break and we'll be right back. Sometimes

977
01:23:45.880 --> 01:23:49.960
your day needs a little smoothing.
Check out the Jazz Channel at apsradio dot

978
01:23:49.960 --> 01:24:41.720
com and the APS Radio app.
And leave the stress behind. You're listening

979
01:24:41.800 --> 01:24:47.960
to the David Knight Show. All
right, let's talk about war at this

980
01:24:48.039 --> 01:24:53.319
time when people talk about peace on
Earth. And this is a story that

981
01:24:53.439 --> 01:24:56.159
was on zero Hedge and somebody's already
responded to it, so well, there

982
01:24:56.159 --> 01:24:58.920
may be a different way that Trump
might want to take a look at this.

983
01:24:59.039 --> 01:25:04.119
But as Trump is talking about how
he as the Prince of peace,

984
01:25:04.520 --> 01:25:08.079
he is going to bring peace to
the ear in just a single day.

985
01:25:09.880 --> 01:25:14.279
Besides the sheer demagoguery of this saying
he'll do it in twenty four hours,

986
01:25:14.760 --> 01:25:20.439
some of the other things that he
said were what caused this lieutenant retired Lieutenant

987
01:25:20.439 --> 01:25:28.439
General Keith Kellogg and Dan Negrea to
write this article on the National Interest.

988
01:25:29.119 --> 01:25:34.680
They said, far from abandoning Ukraine, a second Trump administration would lift restrictions

989
01:25:34.720 --> 01:25:43.079
on Ukrainian military and aid in order
to force a peace settlement. Donald Trump

990
01:25:43.079 --> 01:25:45.680
is vowed that in a second presidential
term, he'll end the war in twenty

991
01:25:45.720 --> 01:25:51.079
four hours. But again, you
remember, and we talk about this and

992
01:25:51.159 --> 01:25:57.760
somebody ending the war right away makes
me think about when Ronald Reagan became president.

993
01:25:57.920 --> 01:26:00.800
Right as soon as he was sworn
they released the hostages in Iran,

994
01:26:02.199 --> 01:26:05.560
and many people believe, you know, most Americans' perception of what's going on

995
01:26:05.600 --> 01:26:12.199
Iran does not begin in the nineteen
fifties with our coup there against a leftist

996
01:26:12.680 --> 01:26:16.760
who is going to nationalize oil industries. The CIA led a coup against him,

997
01:26:17.279 --> 01:26:20.479
put in the Shaw of Iran,
who worked with American oil companies,

998
01:26:21.520 --> 01:26:26.399
and as part of that, the
CIA then subsequently trained the Shaw of Iran

999
01:26:26.800 --> 01:26:32.640
to have a group of ruthless secret
police who would torture and kill anybody who

1000
01:26:32.720 --> 01:26:39.239
was even moderately opposed to him.
They called it the Savakh. And then

1001
01:26:39.920 --> 01:26:44.000
that all blew up eventually, that
kind of horrific repression. And I knew

1002
01:26:44.000 --> 01:26:49.279
that background because again there was a
lot of Iranian students who had come to

1003
01:26:49.319 --> 01:26:54.319
America that were in the engineering classes
that I was taking at the time,

1004
01:26:55.479 --> 01:26:59.760
and they were protesting with maskie masks
on their face and things like that.

1005
01:27:00.079 --> 01:27:00.880
Talk to them about it, It's
like, what's going on? What's this

1006
01:27:00.960 --> 01:27:09.079
about? Anyway, that was the
context for what happened with the blowback that

1007
01:27:09.159 --> 01:27:13.800
put in somebody that was equally horrible
in a different way, the Iatola,

1008
01:27:13.840 --> 01:27:17.039
of course, and the blowback for
them taking over the US embassy and imprisoning

1009
01:27:17.039 --> 01:27:21.880
all these people. But the reason
that they released all that stuff on day

1010
01:27:21.920 --> 01:27:28.439
one, well, it was not
because they were necessarily afraid of Ronald Reagan.

1011
01:27:29.079 --> 01:27:33.479
Was because Ronald Reagan's campaign manager,
Bill Casey, was one of the

1012
01:27:33.479 --> 01:27:36.800
founders of the CIA. It had
been very active in World War II with

1013
01:27:36.880 --> 01:27:41.439
the OSS, which was the predecessor
to the CIA. They called him.

1014
01:27:41.479 --> 01:27:44.239
While Bill Casey, he was very
aggressive with the things that he did,

1015
01:27:44.279 --> 01:27:47.880
and as Reagan's campaign manager, he
saw an opportunity. I'm just assuming that

1016
01:27:47.880 --> 01:27:50.760
they didn't have anything to do with
the takeover the embassy and the installation of

1017
01:27:50.760 --> 01:27:55.439
the Ayatola. That's nobody suggested that
yet, But I wouldn't put anything past

1018
01:27:55.439 --> 01:28:00.960
any of these people. But he
went secretly to Iran and began the Iran

1019
01:28:01.000 --> 01:28:10.640
Contra thing before Reagan got elected.
You keep these hostages, do not release

1020
01:28:10.720 --> 01:28:15.239
them to Jimmy Carter until after we
were elected, and then we'll let you

1021
01:28:15.439 --> 01:28:21.720
continue to buy parts for the state
of the art US jets that you have

1022
01:28:21.800 --> 01:28:28.399
here. And then after the election
they did that Oliver North and the rest

1023
01:28:28.399 --> 01:28:31.960
of these people, and then they
took that money that they made selling these

1024
01:28:32.399 --> 01:28:36.000
parts to Iran that Iran was not
supposed to have, that it was illegal

1025
01:28:36.079 --> 01:28:41.239
to sell that to them, and
the Reagan administration, with people like Oliver

1026
01:28:41.359 --> 01:28:47.880
North used that for their secret wars. They'd also done illegally. And so

1027
01:28:47.920 --> 01:28:50.359
when you look at this, I
wonder if anything like that is in the

1028
01:28:50.760 --> 01:28:57.239
making here, just just asking for
a friend. You know, Putin invaded

1029
01:28:57.319 --> 01:29:01.079
Ukraine under both Obama and Biden,
but he did not attack while Trump was

1030
01:29:01.119 --> 01:29:04.800
present. And there's a lesson in
that. I mean, don't we want

1031
01:29:04.800 --> 01:29:11.479
to have Dayton anymore? Isn't it
a win to pause aggression? I think

1032
01:29:11.520 --> 01:29:15.800
it was. That should be the
lesson. But you know, Trump is

1033
01:29:15.840 --> 01:29:18.760
going to be completely different this time
around. I'm telling you he's going to

1034
01:29:18.760 --> 01:29:23.760
be playing to a different audience.
He wants to be remembered. He wants

1035
01:29:23.800 --> 01:29:27.439
to be liked by people like Maggie
Halberman at the New York Times and by

1036
01:29:27.479 --> 01:29:32.079
people like Carl Bernstein at the Washington
Post, even though they can they always

1037
01:29:32.079 --> 01:29:40.119
despise him. He gives them the
premiere access to him and talks frankly to

1038
01:29:40.199 --> 01:29:43.159
them, and he thinks they're going
to love him. But he's going to

1039
01:29:43.159 --> 01:29:45.079
continue to do that kind of stuff, just like he you know, did

1040
01:29:45.119 --> 01:29:47.960
his gun control by executive order with
a bump stock, and then all he

1041
01:29:48.159 --> 01:29:56.760
started the gun control by executive order
against pistol braces, and it was continued

1042
01:29:56.760 --> 01:30:00.800
by Biden. Anyway, the Trump
doctrine for Ukraine's arguing that he would use

1043
01:30:00.800 --> 01:30:03.600
his personal relationship with Zelenski and Putent
to negotiate a settlement on the first day

1044
01:30:04.640 --> 01:30:09.640
and just one day. Both sides
appear to believe that they can still prevail

1045
01:30:09.680 --> 01:30:14.680
on the battlefield, but Trump's proposed
approach says this retired to lieutenant general could

1046
01:30:14.760 --> 01:30:17.960
change that calculation. Trump said,
and this is why they're basing this whole

1047
01:30:18.159 --> 01:30:21.680
article and analysis off of Trump said, I would tell Putin, if you

1048
01:30:21.680 --> 01:30:26.760
don't make a deal, we're going
to give him a lot, and we're

1049
01:30:26.760 --> 01:30:31.479
going to give Ukraine more than they
ever got if we have to. Oh,

1050
01:30:31.680 --> 01:30:35.880
sounds kind of like Nixon and Kissinger
deciding that they're going to when in

1051
01:30:36.000 --> 01:30:41.800
Vietnam by secret bombing campaign or something. I don't know. We should pay

1052
01:30:41.840 --> 01:30:45.039
attention to history sometimes it tells us
things that we could learn. Some Republicans

1053
01:30:45.119 --> 01:30:51.000
argue that the Ukraine conflict is a
European matter, and it has no consequence

1054
01:30:51.039 --> 01:30:58.920
to the United States. So just
stop feeding this coup and war machine.

1055
01:30:58.960 --> 01:31:01.720
Do what you did the first time. If you become president, just pause

1056
01:31:01.760 --> 01:31:08.000
it. As a matter of fact, you know, Trump might understand that

1057
01:31:08.239 --> 01:31:12.239
Ukraine and the people and not the
people of Ukraine, but the Ukrainian government

1058
01:31:12.239 --> 01:31:18.680
that was put in by Obama is
you know, a core part of his

1059
01:31:18.840 --> 01:31:23.359
problem. It was all the way
through all this Russia Gate stuff, you

1060
01:31:23.439 --> 01:31:29.239
had people who were Ukrainian, like
Vinman, what was it, It's lieutenant

1061
01:31:29.239 --> 01:31:34.640
colonel to you right now, Vinman, whatever his title is. I don't

1062
01:31:34.680 --> 01:31:39.359
care other people. I used to
always talk about Alexandria Chiloup. I interviewed

1063
01:31:39.399 --> 01:31:43.600
people from Ukraine, so they saw
the DNC there, you know, Alexandria

1064
01:31:43.720 --> 01:31:48.399
Chiloup and other people working and conspiring
with the Ukrainian government officials, and of

1065
01:31:48.439 --> 01:31:53.560
course you know Victoria Newlan state Department
official who kicked all this stuff off.

1066
01:31:55.159 --> 01:32:01.920
But they said, well, you
know, strategically this author as his public

1067
01:32:02.079 --> 01:32:13.000
comments reinforce, Trump disagrees with this
idea of just leaving Ukraine alone, even

1068
01:32:13.039 --> 01:32:17.800
though these people are his enemies.
He's gonna supposedly support them. He sees

1069
01:32:17.920 --> 01:32:20.840
ending the war as a major foreign
policy issue and one that he plans to

1070
01:32:20.880 --> 01:32:28.279
accomplish on day one, because you
see, even if Zelensky and all these

1071
01:32:28.279 --> 01:32:36.159
other people are a bunch of ruthless
Obama Biden co conspirators against him, he

1072
01:32:36.239 --> 01:32:42.119
still wants the perception of being the
great peacemaker peace through strength. But what

1073
01:32:42.279 --> 01:32:46.760
happens if we just give peace a
chance? Right? All these stupid wars

1074
01:32:46.800 --> 01:32:51.520
of empire that never end. And
so just give you another reminder. We

1075
01:32:51.600 --> 01:32:58.319
see this every year that over a
couple of days of Christmas, as the

1076
01:32:58.359 --> 01:33:00.560
war began, the World War One
again in nineteen fourteen, it was only

1077
01:33:00.560 --> 01:33:05.760
a few months old. People had
not been hardened yet in their hatred of

1078
01:33:05.880 --> 01:33:13.760
the other side, and you had
peace breakout, and this was We've had

1079
01:33:13.760 --> 01:33:18.079
so many movies about this. We've
had operas and plays about this, and

1080
01:33:18.159 --> 01:33:23.960
now we've got a candy commercial about
it. They went a great deal to

1081
01:33:24.000 --> 01:33:30.680
produce this in the UK. Here's
a part of it Christmas Eve, nineteen

1082
01:33:30.760 --> 01:33:36.039
fourteen. Chen Kins. He's holding
their product, by the way, nice

1083
01:33:36.039 --> 01:33:43.640
product placement there. He's on the
trench. He's looking at the pictures and

1084
01:33:43.760 --> 01:34:06.079
the letters and the chocolate bar that
he gets from home. Oh rise,

1085
01:34:15.840 --> 01:34:45.720
oh see singing song that night in
both German and English. And this is

1086
01:34:45.760 --> 01:34:53.960
what happened. See movement on the
other side of everybody gets her arms up.

1087
01:34:54.800 --> 01:34:56.840
It's gonna be a charge, but
it's not. Guy's got his hands

1088
01:34:56.920 --> 01:35:23.159
up. M M. My name
is Jim, My name is Otto.

1089
01:35:24.359 --> 01:35:45.600
Please meet me. Those should just
should. They got together. They exchanged

1090
01:35:45.880 --> 01:35:56.039
cards, gifts, played football.
Did this for a couple of days and

1091
01:35:56.079 --> 01:36:17.079
it became very extensive. It's not
just in one area. Dunk, Happy

1092
01:36:17.119 --> 01:36:24.479
Christmas, full of I knocking and
they exchange gifts. One of them gives

1093
01:36:24.479 --> 01:36:27.119
a biscuit, the other one gives
or cookie whatever that was, and the

1094
01:36:27.119 --> 01:36:32.680
other one gives a chocolate bar because
that's the sponsor. It is a real

1095
01:36:32.720 --> 01:36:38.039
sponsor. A piece. Right.
You heard them play leaning on the Everlasting

1096
01:36:38.119 --> 01:36:42.560
Arms? What was the What was
the purpose of World War One? You

1097
01:36:42.600 --> 01:36:45.439
know what? What was? What
caused it? Yeah again, oh arch

1098
01:36:45.520 --> 01:36:48.720
duke? For what what caused No, it wasn't an assassination of an arch

1099
01:36:48.880 --> 01:36:55.920
duke. It was the geopolitical aspirations
of people who wanted to build and extend

1100
01:36:55.960 --> 01:37:00.239
their empire. Politicians who are willing
to kill those people. And after this

1101
01:37:00.279 --> 01:37:02.199
went on for a few days and
it spread all up and down the line,

1102
01:37:04.000 --> 01:37:08.319
the generals on both sides got wind
of it and they punished some people

1103
01:37:08.319 --> 01:37:13.159
for fratnizing with the enemy. And
I had to watch that very closely.

1104
01:37:14.039 --> 01:37:18.399
But of course it wasn't too much
longer after that the killing became so ruthless

1105
01:37:18.520 --> 01:37:23.880
that the people on the front lines
would no longer try to reach out to

1106
01:37:23.920 --> 01:37:27.720
the other side. You see,
that's what we have to be careful of.

1107
01:37:28.239 --> 01:37:30.680
You can see that in the Hamas
Israeli thing, right, that just

1108
01:37:31.199 --> 01:37:36.520
the ruthless murder that doesn't end,
and how it spreads, and how your

1109
01:37:36.560 --> 01:37:42.520
own people are killed and the leaders
don't care, and the longer it gets,

1110
01:37:42.560 --> 01:37:45.159
the more people get hardened into their
hatred. But you know, what

1111
01:37:45.279 --> 01:37:50.319
was that war all about? World
War One? What was their goal?

1112
01:37:50.359 --> 01:37:56.079
How were they going to end it? Well, essentially ended because people just

1113
01:37:56.119 --> 01:38:00.520
couldn't put up with the slaughter anymore. And again it was the leadership there.

1114
01:38:01.760 --> 01:38:06.479
It was certainly not our war,
certainly was an America's war. We

1115
01:38:06.520 --> 01:38:13.960
certainly did not have an interest there. But of course Woodrow Wilson, being

1116
01:38:14.000 --> 01:38:18.119
a globalist want of disinvolved in that, trying to lay after the war the

1117
01:38:18.159 --> 01:38:24.359
foundation for a global government through the
League of Nations and all these other things.

1118
01:38:24.439 --> 01:38:27.279
But it made no sense for any
country to be involved in that.

1119
01:38:27.560 --> 01:38:31.520
But you heard in that commercial that
was interesting they put in there, leaning

1120
01:38:31.560 --> 01:38:36.199
on the Everlasting Arms and old heymn, which would have been around at that

1121
01:38:36.319 --> 01:38:40.479
time. That goes back to the
eighteen hundreds. But it made me think

1122
01:38:40.680 --> 01:38:44.880
of Sergeant York. You know,
this is another story that goes back to

1123
01:38:44.920 --> 01:38:47.520
World War One. And of course
the Sergeant York, Alvin York is celebrated

1124
01:38:47.560 --> 01:38:51.640
here in Tennessee, Tennessee Native.
They got a big statue of him down

1125
01:38:51.680 --> 01:38:56.479
at the state Capitol, much larger
than life. I mean, it's like

1126
01:38:56.800 --> 01:39:01.439
nine foot tall statue that's at ground
level. Kind of interesting. But you

1127
01:39:01.439 --> 01:39:06.119
know, Sergeant York was a movie
that was done with Gary Cooper's done in

1128
01:39:06.159 --> 01:39:10.119
the middle of you know, as
we were getting into World War Two,

1129
01:39:10.239 --> 01:39:13.079
or we were already in it.
I don't remember the exact I think we're

1130
01:39:13.119 --> 01:39:16.880
already in it or about again in
it. It wasn't just a story of

1131
01:39:16.960 --> 01:39:23.279
bravery and of accomplishment, because it
truly was amazing what he was able to

1132
01:39:23.319 --> 01:39:28.000
do, but was also a story
that they could use to shut down opposition

1133
01:39:28.119 --> 01:39:31.319
to World War Two. Because people
remembered World War One, the war to

1134
01:39:31.359 --> 01:39:35.960
end all wars, hopefully, the
futility of it, the slaughter of it.

1135
01:39:36.199 --> 01:39:39.920
Americans didn't want to have anything to
do with it. So they told

1136
01:39:40.039 --> 01:39:46.079
Sergeant York's story, and in it
you see his conversion from a peace loving

1137
01:39:46.479 --> 01:39:51.239
Christian to somebody who will go fight
their war for them. You applied for

1138
01:39:51.279 --> 01:39:57.920
exemption, I believe as a conscientious
objector, Well, I think we can

1139
01:39:58.079 --> 01:40:03.560
disregard that, York. Sergeant Parsons
recommends your promotion to the rank of corporal

1140
01:40:03.560 --> 01:40:10.399
with special detail as instructor in target
practice, Captain Danford, and I heartily

1141
01:40:10.399 --> 01:40:15.479
approve. I congratulate you, York. I'm much obliged to you, Major

1142
01:40:15.560 --> 01:40:21.000
Buxton. Captain Danford, Well,
I learned them fellers to shoot the best

1143
01:40:21.039 --> 01:40:26.640
I can, like I've already done
Pusher and Burt, I mean, Private

1144
01:40:27.279 --> 01:40:32.199
Ross and Thomas. But well,
I don't want to be no corporal.

1145
01:40:32.720 --> 01:40:36.399
What's that I said? I don't
want to be no corporal? Why not

1146
01:40:36.720 --> 01:40:41.960
wait a minute, Captain let him
talk? Well, you see, uh?

1147
01:40:42.119 --> 01:40:45.319
Is it because of your religious convictions, York, Yes, sir,

1148
01:40:45.600 --> 01:40:50.680
that's it. You see, I
believe in the Bible, and I'm believing

1149
01:40:50.720 --> 01:40:56.279
that that this year life we're living
is something the Lord does give us,

1150
01:40:56.840 --> 01:40:59.800
and we got to be a live
in it the best we can. And

1151
01:41:00.039 --> 01:41:05.560
I'm figuring that killing other folks ain't
no part of what he was intending for

1152
01:41:05.680 --> 01:41:10.960
us to be a doing here.
Well, yes, in a way,

1153
01:41:11.000 --> 01:41:15.119
I agree with him, York,
with your permission, Major Curtly, Captain

1154
01:41:15.199 --> 01:41:19.880
said down, York, you say
you believe in the Bible. Yes,

1155
01:41:21.000 --> 01:41:26.079
well I do too. But do
you believe that the Bible means that a

1156
01:41:26.119 --> 01:41:30.600
man shouldn't fight for what he believes
to be right? Will it done?

1157
01:41:30.640 --> 01:41:36.039
Said? Blessed are the peacemakers?
Yes, I know, But do you

1158
01:41:36.079 --> 01:41:42.119
remember that verse? I think it's
in Luke where he says he that hath

1159
01:41:42.159 --> 01:41:45.680
no sword, let him sell his
garment and buy one. He said that

1160
01:41:45.720 --> 01:41:48.840
to Peter, but he doesn't stop
Peter from using the sword. He said

1161
01:41:49.399 --> 01:41:54.520
them that lives by the sword will
be a perishing by the sword. Or

1162
01:41:54.560 --> 01:41:58.239
further on, Yes, I remember, but I'll go ahead, Captain.

1163
01:41:59.119 --> 01:42:02.920
But according to say John, he
said, my kingdom is not of this

1164
01:42:03.039 --> 01:42:08.119
world. If my kingdom were of
this world, then would my servant fight.

1165
01:42:08.239 --> 01:42:11.760
Well, that's just the plant.
Captain. He done said his kingdom

1166
01:42:11.800 --> 01:42:15.199
were not of this world. And
that's that a difference. Yes, But

1167
01:42:15.439 --> 01:42:21.319
it's the long again, York.
And you ever read this history of the

1168
01:42:21.439 --> 01:42:30.560
United States? Sure a lot of
writing. Sure, there's a lot of

1169
01:42:30.560 --> 01:42:32.800
writing. And it's a history book. And I don't know, you know,

1170
01:42:32.840 --> 01:42:36.479
they gave him that book and the
way it proceeds in the story.

1171
01:42:36.680 --> 01:42:39.800
So he tells them, well,
you know, you take this book with

1172
01:42:39.840 --> 01:42:42.800
you about American history. You take
it home with you, take some leave,

1173
01:42:43.039 --> 01:42:45.920
think about this, and come back. And if you still don't want

1174
01:42:45.920 --> 01:42:50.800
to fight, don't give you leave
to go. Or you know you can

1175
01:42:50.840 --> 01:42:55.000
since you're an excellent marksman, you
can train other people about this will promote

1176
01:42:55.039 --> 01:42:58.439
you. But the thing is,
I wonder in that history book, do

1177
01:42:58.520 --> 01:43:01.680
they talk about George Washington, talk
about the guy who was present at the

1178
01:43:01.720 --> 01:43:06.520
time, Woodrow Wilson. You know, when we look at George Washington,

1179
01:43:08.079 --> 01:43:12.479
it wasn't just the Bible that was
again killing. It was the George Washington

1180
01:43:12.640 --> 01:43:16.239
that was again getting involved in foreign
entanglements and that type of thing, and

1181
01:43:16.279 --> 01:43:18.840
if he wants to go back and
look at other Christian thought, that's why

1182
01:43:18.840 --> 01:43:24.680
we talk about justified war. I
don't think that Sergeant Yorke would have had

1183
01:43:24.720 --> 01:43:29.640
any qualms whatsoever if America had been
invaded to defend innocent life. But that

1184
01:43:29.760 --> 01:43:32.279
was not our war. I don't
know that World War One was anybody's war

1185
01:43:32.880 --> 01:43:39.119
except for the politicians. And so
we have to think about this the whole.

1186
01:43:39.239 --> 01:43:42.640
You know, it comes down to
him reading in the Bible, render

1187
01:43:42.680 --> 01:43:49.479
to Caesar? What is due to
Caesar? Well, if the government wants

1188
01:43:49.479 --> 01:43:55.880
to get involved in preemptive warfare,
if the government wants to just have continuous

1189
01:43:55.960 --> 01:44:01.039
war without any regard for human life, without any regard for any kind of

1190
01:44:01.199 --> 01:44:05.359
justification, then I don't think we
need to follow that kind of a Caesar.

1191
01:44:06.479 --> 01:44:12.119
I think that we resist that.
Frankly, that's true American history,

1192
01:44:12.159 --> 01:44:15.439
not the phony American history that they
portray with us. Then, to give

1193
01:44:15.479 --> 01:44:19.439
you an example of this, getting
back to Ukraine, we've got a former

1194
01:44:19.720 --> 01:44:26.960
US general says that in order to
win the war with between Ukraine and Russia,

1195
01:44:28.079 --> 01:44:33.800
Ukraine needs to mimic nineteen forty four
Nazi Germany. Does he know anything

1196
01:44:33.840 --> 01:44:36.520
about history. How did that work
out for the Nazis when they went to

1197
01:44:36.600 --> 01:44:40.800
war with Russia. That's what we've
been saying from the very beginning. I

1198
01:44:40.800 --> 01:44:45.680
said it Jerald Clinty. Napoleon got
defeated when he went after Russia's a giant

1199
01:44:45.920 --> 01:44:50.319
country with a lot of people.
You know, people were saying that about

1200
01:44:50.359 --> 01:44:53.560
Russia. They said, you know, it's going to be tough for Russia

1201
01:44:53.920 --> 01:44:57.640
to conquer the Ukraine because it's such
a large area. People say that about

1202
01:44:57.680 --> 01:45:01.479
Iran as well. If we get
into a fight, there very larger,

1203
01:45:01.760 --> 01:45:06.760
lots of people, lots of moving
parts that you got to kill, and

1204
01:45:08.039 --> 01:45:11.800
so it's difficult to win a war
like that. But you know, Russia

1205
01:45:12.000 --> 01:45:15.239
one of the biggest countries, not
in population necessarily, but in land mass,

1206
01:45:15.279 --> 01:45:17.760
and they do have a lot of
people, and they have a history

1207
01:45:18.399 --> 01:45:24.800
of taking blow after blow after blow
and persisting when they are attacked. And

1208
01:45:24.880 --> 01:45:29.840
so if this general knows anything about
why in the world would he say,

1209
01:45:29.840 --> 01:45:32.159
we have to do what the Nazis
did in nineteen forty four that didn't work

1210
01:45:32.159 --> 01:45:36.079
out for them. We got idiots
like this that we're getting advice from.

1211
01:45:38.399 --> 01:45:43.439
Not only do they not have any
Christian principles about justified war. But they

1212
01:45:43.439 --> 01:45:47.319
don't even know what they're talking about
when it comes to military history. But

1213
01:45:47.399 --> 01:45:51.560
there's more to it than that,
if you read between the lines what this

1214
01:45:51.600 --> 01:45:57.880
guy is saying. Ben Hodges,
former commander of the US Army forces based

1215
01:45:57.880 --> 01:46:01.039
in Europe, in a long time
Ukraine as they call him a supporter,

1216
01:46:01.119 --> 01:46:08.960
but he's a long time Ukraine instigator, instigator because lees understand who the aggressor

1217
01:46:09.079 --> 01:46:13.760
is here. It's the Obama administration
and people of that ilk. He said,

1218
01:46:13.760 --> 01:46:16.239
the Ukrainian government has to consider what
Germany did in the Second World War

1219
01:46:17.239 --> 01:46:21.680
to stand a chance against Russia.
And so as you're scratching your head,

1220
01:46:21.720 --> 01:46:26.720
here's where it makes sense. He
says, they're going to have to increase

1221
01:46:26.840 --> 01:46:31.319
production of ammunition and weapons in Ukraine. Oh you see, this is what

1222
01:46:32.000 --> 01:46:38.680
these generals are. They don't care
about winning, they don't care who dies,

1223
01:46:38.800 --> 01:46:41.359
how many people die, what happens
to the country. No, it's

1224
01:46:41.399 --> 01:46:46.319
about building weapons. It's about the
military industrial complex. And he's saying,

1225
01:46:46.359 --> 01:46:50.319
we've got to be they've got to
become like the Nazis, and to become

1226
01:46:50.439 --> 01:46:55.039
you know, and they've got to
ramp up their weapon production, which still

1227
01:46:55.079 --> 01:46:58.079
didn't win the war for the Nazis. And the way we're going to do

1228
01:46:58.119 --> 01:47:00.800
that is we're going to take some
of our military industrial corporations and we're going

1229
01:47:00.840 --> 01:47:05.640
to set up weapons manufacturing facilities in
Ukraine. Money, Kachin, Kachin,

1230
01:47:05.720 --> 01:47:10.560
Kachin, always about the money.
For these people. They will kill you

1231
01:47:10.600 --> 01:47:13.359
for money. They will kill our
country for money. They will drag us

1232
01:47:13.399 --> 01:47:18.840
down into a war for money.
That's what this is about, he says.

1233
01:47:19.159 --> 01:47:23.840
Think about what Germany did in nineteen
forty four. Aircraft production for the

1234
01:47:23.880 --> 01:47:29.439
Lufwaffo peaked in nineteen forty four.
That's after more than two years of steady

1235
01:47:29.479 --> 01:47:33.680
bombing by the Royal Air Force and
the US Army Air Corps bombing German cities

1236
01:47:33.720 --> 01:47:39.640
to nothing, and yet the German
aircraft production increased. So I think the

1237
01:47:39.720 --> 01:47:43.840
Ukraine can do that with some improving
efficiencies. And we've got some Western country

1238
01:47:43.960 --> 01:47:50.079
companies that are already there helping and
making money. How transparent is their agenda,

1239
01:47:51.479 --> 01:47:59.479
these people who want continuous war everywhere
so they can make money. Nothing

1240
01:47:59.479 --> 01:48:03.199
could be played. Yeah, instead
of handing them an American history book,

1241
01:48:03.359 --> 01:48:09.880
once you hand them the balance sheets
of these four or five military industrial complex

1242
01:48:10.000 --> 01:48:15.640
giants. That are they're making money
sacrificing the lives of Ukrainians or Americans or

1243
01:48:15.680 --> 01:48:23.840
anybody anybody. The US and his
allies have recommended boosting Kiev's domestic military industry.

1244
01:48:23.880 --> 01:48:28.760
Of course they would. Moscow has
constantly slammed the government in Kiev as

1245
01:48:28.840 --> 01:48:33.880
a Nazi regime, they said,
and of course it is literal Nazis.

1246
01:48:34.920 --> 01:48:38.199
They have the symbols, they have
the names, all the rest of stuff.

1247
01:48:38.880 --> 01:48:42.479
Why would we not believe that they're
Nazis. Isn't it funny how the

1248
01:48:42.560 --> 01:48:48.600
press in the United States will bend
over backwards to ignore all of the obvious

1249
01:48:49.079 --> 01:48:57.279
Nazi connections and expressions that are being
done by Ukraine. They will ignore all

1250
01:48:57.319 --> 01:49:00.720
of that, and yet you know, they're like ferreting out with white glove

1251
01:49:00.079 --> 01:49:08.159
anything that might possibly be Nazish about
their opposition everywhere and in Ukraine. What

1252
01:49:08.239 --> 01:49:10.840
they do is they put a Jew
up front as a beard. That's what

1253
01:49:10.920 --> 01:49:15.960
Zelenski is. He's a beard for
their Nazi government. It is a Nazi

1254
01:49:15.000 --> 01:49:19.800
government. White Yeah. So let's
be like the Nazi. Let's even be

1255
01:49:19.800 --> 01:49:24.079
more like the Nazis. Let's have
a massive arms build up and we can

1256
01:49:24.119 --> 01:49:30.000
make the money. American and British
curators recommend that the Ukrainian leadership lower the

1257
01:49:30.039 --> 01:49:41.600
minimum draft age to seventeen years and
increase the maximum draft age to seventy They

1258
01:49:41.640 --> 01:49:46.680
want people like me to fight their
war. And he was saying the things

1259
01:49:46.760 --> 01:49:49.880
like I said, this is about
I can't do this. This is not

1260
01:49:50.000 --> 01:49:55.439
in my age. I can't do
this. They use people as cannon fodder,

1261
01:49:56.880 --> 01:49:59.960
and they're going to as cannon fodder. They're going to get grand fodder

1262
01:50:00.560 --> 01:50:05.800
out there. Hello matter, Hello
fodder here we are at Camp Granada.

1263
01:50:06.680 --> 01:50:12.560
Yeah, they're going to throw the
old people into the hopper here and women

1264
01:50:12.640 --> 01:50:15.399
to the front lines as well,
throw everything there. We literally are going

1265
01:50:15.479 --> 01:50:21.600
to fight them to the last Ukrainian
and what we need are more weapons manufacturing

1266
01:50:21.640 --> 01:50:29.479
going on right there in Ukraine.
Well what about Germany, Well only seventeen

1267
01:50:29.479 --> 01:50:33.720
percent of Germans are ready to defend
even their own country. Even their own

1268
01:50:33.960 --> 01:50:44.159
country. You know, when you
look at what has happened after World War

1269
01:50:44.199 --> 01:50:49.479
Two, and certainly the Nazis were
not worth fighting for. They learned that

1270
01:50:49.560 --> 01:50:54.520
lesson. But I think it's gotten
to the point where when you look at

1271
01:50:54.880 --> 01:50:58.479
you know, what was the Nazis'
crime of aggression against other people? We

1272
01:50:58.520 --> 01:51:00.560
do preemptive war now with everybody,
you know, Japanese. It was a

1273
01:51:00.640 --> 01:51:03.359
day of infamy, we were told
and you know, we find out that

1274
01:51:03.479 --> 01:51:10.000
FDR was included in that, knew
about that, Let it happen. And

1275
01:51:10.600 --> 01:51:15.880
we've had preemptive war ever since then. So, you know, Hans,

1276
01:51:15.880 --> 01:51:18.079
are we the bad guys here with
us? But since then, you know,

1277
01:51:18.199 --> 01:51:23.760
Germany has become the symbol of evil
everybody can to understand. If they

1278
01:51:23.800 --> 01:51:27.800
want to demonize your opponent, of
course you call them Nazis. And so

1279
01:51:27.960 --> 01:51:32.279
this has been such a pervasive meme
for all of entertainment and Western civilization that

1280
01:51:32.279 --> 01:51:36.079
they've made the Germans hate their own
country to the extent that only seventeen percent

1281
01:51:36.119 --> 01:51:42.960
would even defend themselves if they're attacked. Now, this is what they do

1282
01:51:43.079 --> 01:51:45.880
to kids today. You're white,
you're evil, you're in the wrong body,

1283
01:51:45.920 --> 01:51:48.920
and now you need to you know, attack other people as well.

1284
01:51:48.960 --> 01:51:54.399
This Treans killer, you know,
so propagandized that she could look a nine

1285
01:51:54.439 --> 01:51:59.039
year old in the face and shoot
them. And so you've got seventeen percent

1286
01:51:59.039 --> 01:52:04.840
of Germans only would to defend their
nation because propaganda post war has been to

1287
01:52:04.880 --> 01:52:11.680
hate all things German. You know, it had to be this blanket propaganda.

1288
01:52:11.760 --> 01:52:15.159
Yeah, certainly hate what Hitler did, hate what the Nazis did,

1289
01:52:15.119 --> 01:52:20.479
but they've made this so pervasive that
people hate all things German. And you

1290
01:52:20.520 --> 01:52:24.880
know that same type of thing is
being done against us as well when you

1291
01:52:24.960 --> 01:52:28.960
look at them tearing down the Civil
War monuments and monuments to both sides of

1292
01:52:29.000 --> 01:52:33.279
the Civil War Union, as well
as Confederate tearing down monuments to the people

1293
01:52:33.279 --> 01:52:39.239
who founded this country, tearing down
monuments of Teddy Roosevelt, tearing down monuments

1294
01:52:39.279 --> 01:52:43.720
of Christopher Columbus, everybody, all
of it being erased because you have to

1295
01:52:43.760 --> 01:52:48.479
hate America. And they've created this
narrative where to be hated because at some

1296
01:52:48.520 --> 01:52:56.000
point in time we had slavery that
we ended. Don't hate the country's where

1297
01:52:56.000 --> 01:52:59.119
it is ongoing. But again,
understand, this is the game that's being

1298
01:52:59.119 --> 01:53:04.479
paid in a America. We're being
lied to by our own government. They

1299
01:53:04.520 --> 01:53:09.520
want to use us as cannon fodder. And just as the Germans have been

1300
01:53:09.560 --> 01:53:15.680
pacified with this self loathing hating themselves, America is being pacified in the same

1301
01:53:15.680 --> 01:53:19.399
way all white people are evil.
It's not okay to be white. Racism

1302
01:53:19.640 --> 01:53:23.840
celebrated in the institutions, and one
of the things that bothers me, and

1303
01:53:24.079 --> 01:53:29.520
it's one of the reasons why I've
not really talked about this plagiarizing black woman

1304
01:53:29.560 --> 01:53:36.560
that's the head of Harvard. Did
nobody notice the fact that for years they

1305
01:53:36.640 --> 01:53:43.840
have been hating and white people racist
towards white people, But when it happens

1306
01:53:44.159 --> 01:53:46.600
to Jewish people, Oh, you
got to get rid of them, And

1307
01:53:46.640 --> 01:53:49.600
all the donors leave and Congress says, we're not going to give any more

1308
01:53:49.640 --> 01:53:54.920
money to them. Well, I
don't think they ought to get money.

1309
01:53:54.960 --> 01:53:57.680
And I think that it's wrong to
be any Semitic, but I also think

1310
01:53:57.680 --> 01:54:00.000
it's wrong to be any white.
Why is it that it was not a

1311
01:54:00.000 --> 01:54:02.760
problem for Congress, It was not
a problem for these donors, It wasn't

1312
01:54:02.800 --> 01:54:08.079
a problem for the press, for
anybody. When they hated white people with

1313
01:54:08.079 --> 01:54:14.000
a vitriolva they now show to Jews. Why is that the case, Well,

1314
01:54:14.399 --> 01:54:16.800
we know why it's the case.
We know what is happening to America.

1315
01:54:16.840 --> 01:54:20.560
You have to be you have to
hate all things American, you have

1316
01:54:20.600 --> 01:54:26.319
to hate American people, And guess
what American people are going to get to

1317
01:54:26.399 --> 01:54:30.439
the point where they won't even fight
to defend themselves. That is what these

1318
01:54:30.479 --> 01:54:38.760
people want. In mid December,
Germany's Build tabloid reported that the German Army

1319
01:54:39.479 --> 01:54:43.239
was still losing staffing despite the government's
pledges to increase the army ranks. The

1320
01:54:43.319 --> 01:54:46.600
number of armed forces personnel dropped from
one hundred and eighty three thousand in the

1321
01:54:46.600 --> 01:54:50.560
summer to one hundred and eighty one
thousand at the end of October, with

1322
01:54:50.720 --> 01:54:57.039
thousands of vacancies unfilled, the paper
reported at the time, adding that only

1323
01:54:57.199 --> 01:55:01.239
zero point four percent of the total
German population was in the military. And

1324
01:55:01.319 --> 01:55:05.880
so the same thing as being done
here in America. It isn't just the

1325
01:55:05.920 --> 01:55:11.279
abuse of the soldiers through the vaccine
mandates that was a big deal, but

1326
01:55:11.319 --> 01:55:16.159
it also showed the utter contempt for
the Constitution, the other utter contempt for

1327
01:55:16.239 --> 01:55:20.640
the free exercise of religion, the
other utter contempt for religion itself and especially

1328
01:55:20.880 --> 01:55:27.600
Christianity. And so people are not
joining the military, but people in the

1329
01:55:27.720 --> 01:55:33.239
universities, universities like Harvard are being
taught to hate all things American. And

1330
01:55:33.279 --> 01:55:38.319
if we don't change this, it's
going to you know, we're going to

1331
01:55:38.359 --> 01:55:45.119
turn into Germany, a former superpower. Not that we care about being a

1332
01:55:45.159 --> 01:55:49.239
superpower, but we want to have
prosperity and we want to have peace.

1333
01:55:49.560 --> 01:55:53.239
And so when we come back,
we're going to talk as a matter of

1334
01:55:53.239 --> 01:55:56.239
fact, as we talk about this
Jewish versus Christian thing. There was a

1335
01:55:56.319 --> 01:56:00.359
very interesting op ed piece from Naomi
Wolf, who is a liberal think she's

1336
01:56:00.359 --> 01:56:04.399
a lesbian, she's Jewish, and
she talks about Christmas and how things have

1337
01:56:04.720 --> 01:56:12.039
been turned upside down from when she
was young, and she gets it.

1338
01:56:12.640 --> 01:56:15.359
She really gets it. I don't
know, I didn't know anything about it.

1339
01:56:15.399 --> 01:56:17.760
I saw that, you know,
as she started pushing back against what

1340
01:56:17.880 --> 01:56:21.880
Trump was doing with the lockdowns and
other things like that, she truly understands

1341
01:56:21.880 --> 01:56:26.760
what is happening now and it's a
great take on it. We're going to

1342
01:56:26.880 --> 01:56:32.000
be right back. Elvis, the
Beatle and the Sweet Sounds of Motown.

1343
01:56:32.399 --> 01:57:35.760
Find them on the Oldies channel at
APS radio dot com. You're listening to

1344
01:57:35.840 --> 01:57:44.319
the David Knight Show. Yes,
and of course that's the German version of

1345
01:57:44.720 --> 01:57:49.039
Silent Night. Still a knock and
but on Rumble, Michael de Silvia says,

1346
01:57:49.119 --> 01:57:55.359
I'm convinced that war is just an
excuse to demolish all the beautiful ancient

1347
01:57:55.359 --> 01:58:00.039
buildings. Well that is unfortunately what
happens. You know, when I I

1348
01:58:00.039 --> 01:58:04.600
saw this mass shooting was happening in
Prague killed according to the count yesterday,

1349
01:58:04.600 --> 01:58:11.000
I don't know if more people have
died killed fourteen shot an additional twenty nine.

1350
01:58:12.159 --> 01:58:17.039
So it is it truly is amazing
the body count that is there.

1351
01:58:17.079 --> 01:58:20.760
But I saw it was in Prague, and you know, I we used

1352
01:58:20.760 --> 01:58:26.039
to travel, but not going to
do that anymore because of what the airports

1353
01:58:26.079 --> 01:58:29.439
of airplanes have become, TSA and
all the rest of this stuff in the

1354
01:58:29.520 --> 01:58:32.479
crazy countries. But that was one
place I never did get to go that

1355
01:58:32.520 --> 01:58:39.640
I wanted to go, and I've
wanted to go there ever since the movie

1356
01:58:39.680 --> 01:58:44.760
Amadaeus was made, which again I
was not a big fan of the way

1357
01:58:44.800 --> 01:58:47.840
they portrayed Mozart and I thought it
was kind of stupid, you know,

1358
01:58:48.119 --> 01:58:51.720
try to portray them like a contemporary
rock star, just kind of but if

1359
01:58:51.760 --> 01:58:56.199
you can kind of ignore that part
of it, the central character, the

1360
01:58:56.199 --> 01:58:59.880
rest of it was very interesting,
and it was very interesting the way that

1361
01:59:00.119 --> 01:59:02.680
it was a beautiful, beautifully filmed
very interesting the way it was filmed,

1362
01:59:03.359 --> 01:59:11.680
and so they you know, they
wanted to show the time very accurately,

1363
01:59:11.680 --> 01:59:14.079
and they did a great job of
that, but they couldn't really show it

1364
01:59:14.119 --> 01:59:16.319
so much in Vienna. They shot
some things in Vienna, but a lot

1365
01:59:16.359 --> 01:59:20.640
of the stuff that they shot they
had to go to Prague because Vienna was

1366
01:59:20.680 --> 01:59:25.920
destroyed, just like you're saying there, Michael. So many buildings in Vienna,

1367
01:59:26.039 --> 01:59:30.079
historical buildings of the time at Mozart
were destroyed, but there was still

1368
01:59:30.119 --> 01:59:32.960
a lot in Prague. And so
there are places like that that I wanted

1369
01:59:33.000 --> 01:59:39.000
to see because I like the architecture, I like the buildings that never never

1370
01:59:39.000 --> 01:59:42.600
got to see them. But anyway, on Rock Fan, Jason Barker,

1371
01:59:43.000 --> 01:59:46.880
good to see Jason. Hope you're
feeling good here. We don't seek monsters

1372
01:59:46.920 --> 01:59:51.439
to destroy anymore. We create them. Yeah, yeah, exactly right again

1373
01:59:53.359 --> 01:59:58.760
talking about John Adams. So we
don't go abroad seeking monsters to destroy,

1374
01:59:59.560 --> 02:00:03.840
Jason's as we We don't do that. We create the monsters abroad, and

1375
02:00:03.880 --> 02:00:09.279
then of course we bring the tools
that we used to fight those monsters brought

1376
02:00:09.520 --> 02:00:15.239
we bring them home assive tyranny as
James Madison said, so in terms of

1377
02:00:15.560 --> 02:00:17.800
let's talk the rest of the program
here about Christmas. Got a lot of

1378
02:00:17.840 --> 02:00:21.159
stuff about Christmas, and I had
mentioned earlier in the week. I said,

1379
02:00:21.159 --> 02:00:26.319
Hey, if any of you know
where I can find this guy who

1380
02:00:27.399 --> 02:00:30.720
I knew his first name was Don, but I couldn't find him on YouTube,

1381
02:00:30.479 --> 02:00:34.159
and I knew that, you know, he had done a I just

1382
02:00:34.800 --> 02:00:39.399
come across at by accident years ago
when I was doing the show at Info

1383
02:00:39.439 --> 02:00:44.039
Wars and I could play licensed music
there on the air. I give it

1384
02:00:44.079 --> 02:00:48.479
a try here. But I found
his song and I really liked it.

1385
02:00:48.479 --> 02:00:56.199
It was kind of a jazz version
of you know jazz, small jazz group

1386
02:00:56.319 --> 02:01:00.000
version, not a big band jazz
thing, but it's a small version of

1387
02:01:00.960 --> 02:01:03.359
have yourself a merry little Christmas.
But what I liked about it and what

1388
02:01:03.479 --> 02:01:10.600
I played on the show was the
fact that they changed it from if the

1389
02:01:10.640 --> 02:01:14.680
Fates Allow to if the Lord allows. I thought that was a great change.

1390
02:01:14.680 --> 02:01:15.920
It made all the difference in the
world. Is one thing I always

1391
02:01:16.119 --> 02:01:21.960
kind of graded with me with that
With that song, you know that the

1392
02:01:23.000 --> 02:01:27.640
secular songwriters who wrote that, I
think it was written for meet me in

1393
02:01:27.680 --> 02:01:31.079
Saint Louis. That's the first place
I remember it being sung by Judy Garland.

1394
02:01:31.640 --> 02:01:34.479
And so whoever was doing it for
Hollywood wanted to get the Lord out.

1395
02:01:34.520 --> 02:01:38.159
And it's like, so, who
are the fates that they're talking about.

1396
02:01:39.319 --> 02:01:42.479
Whoever the fates are, They've got
a will and a purpose, don't

1397
02:01:42.520 --> 02:01:45.800
they. But we can't say that
it's God. It's kind of like you

1398
02:01:45.840 --> 02:01:48.880
know what Krick and Watson was say
when they discovered DNA. Well, okay,

1399
02:01:49.000 --> 02:01:54.359
can't be God, can't be the
guy of the Bible. It's got

1400
02:01:54.399 --> 02:01:57.319
to be like space aliens. Yeah, yeah, that's it. That's the

1401
02:01:57.359 --> 02:02:00.720
ticket. It's a pan spermia,
we'll call it. So space aliens came

1402
02:02:00.760 --> 02:02:03.079
here. We know that DNA tells
us that it's intelligent design, and we

1403
02:02:03.119 --> 02:02:09.439
can't deny that it's a very complicated
code air detracting code and all the rest

1404
02:02:09.479 --> 02:02:11.600
of stuff. But we can't say
that it was God who did this.

1405
02:02:11.680 --> 02:02:15.960
So we'll invent something. That's what
they did in Hollywood for for that song.

1406
02:02:15.079 --> 02:02:17.279
If the fates allow, I'll just
give you a little bit of a

1407
02:02:17.319 --> 02:02:19.720
sample of it. But I like
that, and I asked people, I

1408
02:02:19.760 --> 02:02:23.319
said, hey, if you know
where this is because I said I saw

1409
02:02:23.399 --> 02:02:30.720
him when I spoke at Gerald's Occupy
Peace thing in twenty twenty one. But

1410
02:02:30.760 --> 02:02:31.600
I said, I can't find the
song and I wanted to play it,

1411
02:02:31.640 --> 02:02:35.359
And so thank you to Aaron who
found this. He said, you mentioned

1412
02:02:35.359 --> 02:02:39.079
on the Monday Show, have Yourself
a Merry Little Christmas song that you couldn't

1413
02:02:39.079 --> 02:02:43.239
find. Funny enough, I shazammed
that song on my iPhone years ago and

1414
02:02:43.279 --> 02:02:48.159
it's still on my list. And
it's by Don Miller. And so here's

1415
02:02:48.199 --> 02:02:56.279
Don Miller's have Yourself a Merry Little
Christmas. And so I hope Don is

1416
02:02:56.319 --> 02:03:00.479
doing well. And whether he has
found the show or not, some people

1417
02:03:00.600 --> 02:03:03.399
did not find it. But here
is the song, and thank you Erin

1418
02:03:03.439 --> 02:03:19.439
for sending it to me. Have
yourself a Merry Little Christmas. Make the

1419
02:03:19.760 --> 02:03:44.039
you side. From now on our
troubles will be minds way. Here we

1420
02:03:44.119 --> 02:04:01.479
are out olden days, happy golden
days of your faithful friends who want you

1421
02:04:01.720 --> 02:04:19.720
to us, gather to us once, do they we all will be together.

1422
02:04:23.640 --> 02:04:33.680
If a lord a lot that you
saw there, that is Don and

1423
02:04:33.960 --> 02:04:36.439
so if you want to pick that
up, now you know his name,

1424
02:04:36.520 --> 02:04:42.399
Don Miller. Have Yourself a Merry
Little Christmas. The picture on the album

1425
02:04:42.640 --> 02:04:45.439
is Don because he produced that album. We put the whole thing together,

1426
02:04:45.720 --> 02:04:50.479
plays upright jazz bass, and he's
a Christian and a freedom lover. So

1427
02:04:50.600 --> 02:04:55.920
you know, support Don if you
can find him. Don Miller. I

1428
02:04:55.960 --> 02:05:01.279
got this email from a listener,
Robert talking about his daughter Catherine, twenty

1429
02:05:01.279 --> 02:05:05.840
two years old. He says she's
autistic. By the age of seven,

1430
02:05:05.880 --> 02:05:10.960
she would still not talk. Over
those years, we went through five speech

1431
02:05:11.079 --> 02:05:16.319
therapists at three hundred dollars an hour, but no progress. So I told

1432
02:05:16.399 --> 02:05:19.520
the wife that's it, we're done. I bought her a microphone and plugged

1433
02:05:19.640 --> 02:05:24.960
in my guitar amp. He said, I would make her sing along with

1434
02:05:25.039 --> 02:05:28.560
the stereo. She had to overcome
all this, and all I could do

1435
02:05:28.720 --> 02:05:33.039
was just to pray and act like
Sergeant Carter. He said. Today she

1436
02:05:33.119 --> 02:05:39.720
performs at Center Court at Lake Square
Mall regularly, plus every other opportunity that

1437
02:05:39.760 --> 02:05:44.000
we can get for her. She
is no longer nonverbal. Praise the Lord,

1438
02:05:44.439 --> 02:05:46.720
and that was the goal. Also, she's been playing guitar for eight

1439
02:05:46.760 --> 02:05:53.000
years. I insist on three hours
a day practice minimum. She attended private

1440
02:05:53.039 --> 02:05:56.640
school grades four through twelve to be
around kids. Of her age. She

1441
02:05:56.640 --> 02:06:00.840
can read music. She has the
ear and perfect pitch. As she and

1442
02:06:00.920 --> 02:06:06.159
my wife raised butterflies. He said, we plant the seed and God gives

1443
02:06:06.680 --> 02:06:12.079
the increase. He makes it grow. At the time of his choosing,

1444
02:06:13.000 --> 02:06:15.760
I'm sure he's not done with her
yet, so I continue to pray,

1445
02:06:15.680 --> 02:06:20.319
and so he gave me that,
and then he sent me a little clip

1446
02:06:20.359 --> 02:06:24.960
of her singing, and I'll play
a brief part of that. This is

1447
02:06:25.159 --> 02:06:47.079
Catherine singing all Holy night, oh
no, oh nighte, thank you and

1448
02:06:47.199 --> 02:06:51.319
Merry Christmas. Mister night, well, Merry Christmas to you, Catherine,

1449
02:06:51.359 --> 02:07:02.359
and to your dad and to your
mom. So, yes, we plant.

1450
02:07:04.000 --> 02:07:09.760
That's what culture is. It's cultivation. God gives the increase. But

1451
02:07:09.800 --> 02:07:13.640
we plant, we water, we
cultivate, and if we don't do that,

1452
02:07:14.840 --> 02:07:17.439
we're not going to have a culture. This is also from another listener.

1453
02:07:18.479 --> 02:07:25.920
He said, God bless He said, xmus means Christmas. He said

1454
02:07:25.920 --> 02:07:30.119
the X means Christ and the ancient
Greek he said, I believe it represents

1455
02:07:30.159 --> 02:07:38.359
the Cross. And I have seen
other people say that as well. I've

1456
02:07:38.359 --> 02:07:43.840
heard one person preach a sermon on
that. You know, other people,

1457
02:07:43.920 --> 02:07:46.800
it depends on who's their other people
will try to use it just to get

1458
02:07:46.920 --> 02:07:49.840
rid of Christ, and I think
that's the way many people look at It's

1459
02:07:49.880 --> 02:07:53.920
just like you're trying to x out
Jesus out of history, outic culture.

1460
02:07:54.840 --> 02:07:58.239
But I think that it is,
you know, there's an argument to be

1461
02:07:58.279 --> 02:08:03.600
made for that historically anyway, that
it isn't just trying to purge religion,

1462
02:08:03.159 --> 02:08:11.600
perge Jesus more importantly out of everything. But I also saw saw meme where

1463
02:08:11.640 --> 02:08:16.039
they had X Musk and they should
a picture of Elon Musk because he's so

1464
02:08:16.079 --> 02:08:20.720
infatuated with X. So thank you, Chris. I just thought i'd pass

1465
02:08:20.760 --> 02:08:26.479
that along. And then this is
sent to me by Allen, who is

1466
02:08:26.640 --> 02:08:31.920
actually the op ed piece that I
was talking about with Naomi Wolf, and

1467
02:08:31.199 --> 02:08:37.239
she just wrote this doctor Naomi Wolf. And again, as I said,

1468
02:08:37.520 --> 02:08:43.680
she is in the past before she
was activated by Trump's lockdown andso by the

1469
02:08:45.039 --> 02:08:48.079
JAB killing people, she was a
liberal. I think she's a lesbian like

1470
02:08:48.399 --> 02:08:52.520
Rosa Cory was, and Rosa Cory
was activated by finding out what was going

1471
02:08:52.560 --> 02:09:01.399
on with this un Agenda twenty which
then became the Agenda twenty thirty, and

1472
02:09:01.560 --> 02:09:05.600
it was actually a Genda twenty one
I'm sorry you, and Agenda twenty one

1473
02:09:05.640 --> 02:09:09.319
about the twenty first century. Then
they made it more specific around twenty fifteen

1474
02:09:09.359 --> 02:09:13.239
they said, yes, twenty thirty
is what we're going to shoot for,

1475
02:09:13.039 --> 02:09:16.760
not just nebulus. Sometime in the
twenty first century anyway. That activated Rosa

1476
02:09:16.800 --> 02:09:24.920
Cory, who has passed on now. But doctor Naomi Wolf says, the

1477
02:09:24.960 --> 02:09:28.399
thing is, I remember Christmas,
she said, I mean real Christmas,

1478
02:09:28.960 --> 02:09:33.000
she said. I was born in
nineteen sixty two. That means that by

1479
02:09:33.479 --> 02:09:37.279
nineteen sixty six or sixty seven or
so, I was aware that something magical

1480
02:09:37.359 --> 02:09:41.840
happened to the world, at least
in our world in America in the middle

1481
02:09:41.840 --> 02:09:45.039
of winter. By the time I
was in kindergarten, I had some names

1482
02:09:45.079 --> 02:09:48.199
for what was happening all around me. At these wonderful times, I grasped

1483
02:09:48.600 --> 02:09:54.279
the basic story outline all at once. It seemed that drab interiors, whether

1484
02:09:54.319 --> 02:09:58.840
it's a grocery store with its beige
linoleum flooring and its sad walls, or

1485
02:09:58.840 --> 02:10:03.239
the institutional green halls of my elementary
school, or the butcher's shop window which

1486
02:10:03.279 --> 02:10:09.680
previously only had sausages and veal shops
on bland display the windows of the hardware

1487
02:10:09.720 --> 02:10:15.640
store, which has till then showcased
just unremarkable containers of grout and drill bits

1488
02:10:15.640 --> 02:10:20.359
and cans of paint. Indeed,
even the intersections themselves of the road,

1489
02:10:20.359 --> 02:10:26.960
which before then could not have been
less interesting. Suddenly all these erupted in

1490
02:10:26.000 --> 02:10:31.279
a three dimensional froth of sparkle and
shine and joyous images and radiant color.

1491
02:10:33.439 --> 02:10:37.560
So do you remember all these displays? You know, we were watching The

1492
02:10:37.560 --> 02:10:43.359
Bishop's Wife, the original one the
other day, and it opens up and

1493
02:10:43.520 --> 02:10:48.079
everybody's looking at these department store windows, and Karen said, yeah, you

1494
02:10:48.119 --> 02:10:52.199
know, you remember how that was
people go to in New York City,

1495
02:10:52.279 --> 02:10:54.039
especially she lived on the Long Island, so they were traveling to New York

1496
02:10:54.079 --> 02:10:58.279
and had all these different stores,
these really elaborate window displays. I don't

1497
02:10:58.319 --> 02:11:03.880
know if that all got killed by
Trump's lockdowns in twenty twenty or not.

1498
02:11:03.199 --> 02:11:09.439
That's still going. I knew that
even in Tampa, which was pretty small

1499
02:11:09.479 --> 02:11:11.159
at the time, not at all
like it as today. Is my fact,

1500
02:11:11.159 --> 02:11:15.960
they had one department store. I
had Moss Brothers, and it was

1501
02:11:16.760 --> 02:11:20.359
a big department store I could find
in a big city, several stories and

1502
02:11:20.479 --> 02:11:22.119
escalators and all the rest of this
stuff, and they had displays in the

1503
02:11:22.119 --> 02:11:26.960
windows, and there were no shopping
centers in the urban areas that we would

1504
02:11:26.039 --> 02:11:28.399
drive, and there was no interstate
to get you downtown, so we would

1505
02:11:28.479 --> 02:11:31.840
drive like forty minutes to go downtown. My mom would shop when I was

1506
02:11:31.920 --> 02:11:37.079
very young, and I remember those
displays as matter of fact. One year,

1507
02:11:37.119 --> 02:11:41.800
around Christmas time, because it was
Florida and kids didn't see snow,

1508
02:11:41.840 --> 02:11:46.039
they brought in a truckload of snow
for kids to play in, and they

1509
02:11:46.079 --> 02:11:52.000
had an appearance by James Garner,
who had a new TV show called gun

1510
02:11:52.000 --> 02:11:58.079
Smoke where he played Marshall Dylan.
I don't remember meeting him. I remember

1511
02:11:58.119 --> 02:12:01.239
the snow, but he was there. My mom said he picked me up

1512
02:12:01.279 --> 02:12:05.359
and she couldn't believe how tall he
was. I mean, he was super

1513
02:12:05.399 --> 02:12:11.479
tall. They had you before he
became Marshall Dylon. He was in the

1514
02:12:11.520 --> 02:12:16.840
original Thing, Thing from Another Planet, and they had him there in costume.

1515
02:12:16.960 --> 02:12:20.239
They brought him in because he was
so tall to play the monster in

1516
02:12:20.239 --> 02:12:24.079
that science fiction movie. But then
you know, they brought him down there.

1517
02:12:24.079 --> 02:12:26.600
I don't remember anything about that except
the snow. But they would do

1518
02:12:26.800 --> 02:12:31.680
all kinds of crazy stuff around Christmas
time. She said, that's in a

1519
02:12:31.760 --> 02:12:35.399
heartbeat. You had giant, smiling
Santa, not a scary one, not

1520
02:12:35.479 --> 02:12:41.239
an ironic one, not a drunk
one. Just Santa with the red cheeks

1521
02:12:41.239 --> 02:12:46.760
and the big grin and the fully
fluffy white beard. You had waving fronds

1522
02:12:46.800 --> 02:12:50.520
of yellow, golden tinsil, bright
green tensil. You had red tensil that

1523
02:12:50.640 --> 02:12:52.760
was always the color of a candy
apple or a fire truck. You had

1524
02:12:52.800 --> 02:13:00.600
gigantic sleigh bells, two of them, always friendly, collegial with a plaid

1525
02:13:00.640 --> 02:13:05.720
bow. You had cutouts of red
sleighs piled with gifts. She's a good

1526
02:13:05.720 --> 02:13:07.439
writer. And then she says,
and then there were crushes. I love

1527
02:13:07.520 --> 02:13:13.479
them, I loved them. She
emphasizes these were also called once upon a

1528
02:13:13.560 --> 02:13:18.359
time Nativity scenes. And this is
kind of where we get to the crux

1529
02:13:18.399 --> 02:13:24.039
of what she's talking about here.
She said, crushes abounded at Christmas time

1530
02:13:24.039 --> 02:13:28.720
in the nineteen sixties. Yes,
even in California. Now, I guess

1531
02:13:28.720 --> 02:13:33.359
in California they have Away with the
Manger, Away with that, Away with

1532
02:13:33.439 --> 02:13:39.960
that. That probably would be a
top song if somebody were to write that

1533
02:13:39.560 --> 02:13:43.319
Away with the Manger, Get it
out of here. I don't want to

1534
02:13:43.359 --> 02:13:46.840
have any of that stuff around here. Christmas world in the nineteen sixties was

1535
02:13:46.840 --> 02:13:52.920
also made transcendental by the sudden presence
of Christmas carols everywhere. They were mostly

1536
02:13:52.960 --> 02:13:58.279
religious, though I didn't think of
them as religious Christmas carols, but rather

1537
02:13:58.439 --> 02:14:03.239
as Christmas carols, because the holiday
itself was obviously religious. Oh come,

1538
02:14:03.279 --> 02:14:07.000
all, you faithful angels, we've
heard on high joy to the world,

1539
02:14:07.039 --> 02:14:11.720
we three kings of Orenaar. The
music was played everywhere, with all kinds

1540
02:14:11.720 --> 02:14:16.399
of instrumentation, but you heard it
in drug stores and department stores and the

1541
02:14:16.439 --> 02:14:20.319
homes of your friends. It elevated
the mood at the vibration, if you

1542
02:14:20.359 --> 02:14:24.039
will, she says, of everywhere, all at once, because all at

1543
02:14:24.039 --> 02:14:30.560
once, sacred thoughts were being thought
by thousands of people going about their otherwise

1544
02:14:30.720 --> 02:14:35.119
ordinary days. And there was everywhere
that warm glow that you still feel sometimes

1545
02:14:35.640 --> 02:14:39.640
in crowds on Valentine's Day or Mother's
Day, as groups of humans together all

1546
02:14:39.680 --> 02:14:46.199
think of someone they love. Also
transformational was that the modern world that usually

1547
02:14:46.239 --> 02:14:52.760
listened to nineteen sixties music was listening
to and even caroling and singing melodies and

1548
02:14:52.800 --> 02:15:00.359
words from the seventeenth and eighteenth century. This gave in nineteenth century. So

1549
02:15:00.479 --> 02:15:07.199
this gave a sense of otherness and
of continuity and excitement everything that was all

1550
02:15:07.199 --> 02:15:13.000
around us, since our history was
rich and extended long into the past.

1551
02:15:16.079 --> 02:15:18.760
Or they're trying to destroy that,
aren't they ripping it out by the roots.

1552
02:15:20.479 --> 02:15:26.000
That's what radicals do. They get
to the root. As you try

1553
02:15:26.039 --> 02:15:31.000
to grow this culture, as you
try to cultivate this culture like you were

1554
02:15:31.039 --> 02:15:37.920
cultivating and growing a plant. The
radicals come along and try to rip it

1555
02:15:37.960 --> 02:15:43.520
out by the root. That's what
they do. And she's onto that game.

1556
02:15:45.960 --> 02:15:50.600
Continue with what she had to say. Our history was rich and extended

1557
02:15:50.640 --> 02:15:56.279
long into the past, and since
we were experiencing openings into the sounds of

1558
02:15:56.439 --> 02:16:03.319
other times, whose worship and joys
tended to that very day. But eventually

1559
02:16:03.119 --> 02:16:09.880
the Nativity scenes and the Nativity plays
and the carols even became quote controversial,

1560
02:16:11.520 --> 02:16:16.359
yeah, because we have to push
Christ out of that. In the nineteen

1561
02:16:16.399 --> 02:16:22.239
sixties through to the nineteen seventies and
into the early nineteen eighties, Christmas movie

1562
02:16:22.279 --> 02:16:26.720
still had messages about home and family
and to goetherness and redemption and things like

1563
02:16:26.760 --> 02:16:31.040
that. And again gradually even as
you're looking as she starts to describe things

1564
02:16:31.120 --> 02:16:37.120
like that and the movies Charlie Brown
Christmas and things like that. And there's

1565
02:16:37.159 --> 02:16:41.879
a strong current, as I pointed
out before, of nostalgia throughout Christmas music.

1566
02:16:43.239 --> 02:16:48.559
And there's nothing wrong with that,
and there's nothing wrong with having a

1567
02:16:48.600 --> 02:16:52.680
good time, and there's nothing wrong
with any of this stuff. Per se

1568
02:16:52.920 --> 02:16:58.639
until that becomes the thing, until
that becomes the only thing, she said.

1569
02:16:58.680 --> 02:17:01.840
I noticed in the nineteen eighties,
when I was a young college and

1570
02:17:01.840 --> 02:17:07.639
graduate student, the Christmas still carried
that high elevating energy, that sacred quality.

1571
02:17:07.680 --> 02:17:11.079
But over time I felt the Christmas
spirit eroding and dying down. I

1572
02:17:11.159 --> 02:17:16.159
noticed that the pop culture was adding
a whole new cast of personalities to Christmas,

1573
02:17:16.959 --> 02:17:22.680
exalting them while dialing down others pea
Nuts. The cartoon series had been

1574
02:17:22.719 --> 02:17:26.879
openly spiritually oriented in its treatment of
the season. A Charlie Brown Christmas that

1575
02:17:26.959 --> 02:17:31.479
debuted in nineteen sixty five. Remember, they talk about all the current stuff

1576
02:17:31.520 --> 02:17:35.040
and anything, but at the core
of it, they get down to Lionis

1577
02:17:35.120 --> 02:17:37.680
saying, well, I'll tell you
what Christmas is about Charlie Brown. He

1578
02:17:37.719 --> 02:17:43.319
reads the account from Luke, but
she said. In the nineteen eighties,

1579
02:17:43.639 --> 02:17:50.719
as it unfolded, Peanuts became less
and less culturally central, replaced by Doctor

1580
02:17:50.799 --> 02:17:56.600
Seuss's Grinch who Stole Christmas nineteen sixty
six. That was a fairly new character,

1581
02:17:56.719 --> 02:18:00.440
but it started to get more and
more tractions, he said. And

1582
02:18:00.479 --> 02:18:05.159
then when you looked at what the
lyrics were about, she said, you

1583
02:18:05.200 --> 02:18:11.559
know the carol that they sing in
whovill it says almost sounds like it's Latin

1584
02:18:13.520 --> 02:18:18.479
fa who fores daho dorez welcome all
who's far and near, Welcome Christmas.

1585
02:18:18.520 --> 02:18:22.639
Fa who ramas Welcome Christmas, dahoo
damas. She says, Well, that's

1586
02:18:22.639 --> 02:18:28.040
sweet. It doesn't have any discernible
meaning. What about Rudolph and Red Nose

1587
02:18:28.079 --> 02:18:31.840
Rain there That'd been a minor character
launched in nineteen thirty nine in a song,

1588
02:18:31.920 --> 02:18:37.600
but now it became the central and
super important character, you know,

1589
02:18:37.719 --> 02:18:43.040
along with Elves and expanding at eighteen
twenty three poem The Night before Christmas.

1590
02:18:43.120 --> 02:18:46.280
All this was building, and a
lot of this was done again through the

1591
02:18:46.399 --> 02:18:52.280
music, as the music became increasingly
either nostalgic or focused on Santa and Elves

1592
02:18:52.440 --> 02:18:56.120
and Rudolph, all these characters in
side. Narratives are fun, but they're

1593
02:18:56.159 --> 02:19:01.040
not actually about Christmas, about the
birth of the christ child, she says.

1594
02:19:01.959 --> 02:19:07.440
And then in nineteen eighty nine,
an important lawsuit deconstructed Christmas and Hanukkah

1595
02:19:07.559 --> 02:19:13.600
for that matter, in America.
It was a lawsuit the County of Allegheny

1596
02:19:13.079 --> 02:19:22.000
versus the ACLU, according to that
organization's website, and they're very proud of

1597
02:19:22.040 --> 02:19:28.360
that. Two public sponsored holiday displays
in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, were challenged by

1598
02:19:28.399 --> 02:19:33.959
the ACLU. The first display involved
a Christian Nativity scene inside the Allegheny County

1599
02:19:35.000 --> 02:19:41.559
Courthouse. The second display was a
large Hankkah menora erected each year by the

1600
02:19:43.559 --> 02:19:50.799
Shabbad Jewish organization outside the city county
building. The ASLU claimed that both displays

1601
02:19:50.079 --> 02:20:00.559
constituted state endorsement of a religion,
and the case was decided together with well

1602
02:20:00.600 --> 02:20:03.959
both of these different ones. They
had two aspects of it, the manora

1603
02:20:05.040 --> 02:20:09.200
aspect and the nativitous Nativity scene.
She said. I was surprised to read

1604
02:20:09.239 --> 02:20:15.840
this because in the yawning ever hungry
abyss, where national memories that don't fit

1605
02:20:15.879 --> 02:20:18.760
the narrative go to die. The
fact that the ACLU took aim at this

1606
02:20:20.000 --> 02:20:24.840
famous case against the display of a
public manora, as well as against a

1607
02:20:24.879 --> 02:20:31.479
public Christian crash, has been utterly
lost to history. Those who want to

1608
02:20:31.520 --> 02:20:35.280
share their Nativity scenes openly in public
with their neighbors are depicted in this narrative

1609
02:20:37.120 --> 02:20:43.600
as thug like Christian white supremacists.
Has been entirely erased from American history.

1610
02:20:43.159 --> 02:20:48.559
That the people of Alleghany got in
trouble with the ACLU for inviting their Jewish

1611
02:20:48.559 --> 02:20:52.440
neighbors to share with a larger community
the joy, the pride, and the

1612
02:20:52.479 --> 02:21:00.120
symbolism of their minority religion Hanukkah.
Indeed, this case that changed America is

1613
02:21:00.159 --> 02:21:03.920
an odd one, as weirdly decided, she says as Roe v. Wade.

1614
02:21:05.159 --> 02:21:07.000
According to the ACLU, the central
question of the case was whether or

1615
02:21:07.040 --> 02:21:11.799
not the two displays, one remember
was Christian and one was Jewish, whether

1616
02:21:11.879 --> 02:21:18.719
these two displays violated the Establishment clause
of the First Amendment. Court said that

1617
02:21:18.760 --> 02:21:26.200
one symbol did and one did not. Isn't it interesting? In a five

1618
02:21:26.239 --> 02:21:31.000
to four decision, the court held
the Nativity scene inside the courthouse unmistakably endorsed

1619
02:21:31.120 --> 02:21:39.680
Christianity and violation of the Establishment clause. It had on it glory to God

1620
02:21:39.719 --> 02:21:43.200
for the birth of Jesus Christ.
The county, they said, sent a

1621
02:21:43.239 --> 02:21:50.399
clear message with that that it supported
and promoted Christian orthodoxy. Six of the

1622
02:21:50.559 --> 02:21:58.159
justices concluded that the display involving the
minora was constitutionally legitimate given its particular physical

1623
02:21:58.360 --> 02:22:05.559
setting. She says, as a
Jew, I find the reasoning in Allegheny

1624
02:22:05.680 --> 02:22:09.280
versus the ASLU to be odd.
How is it that a manora outside the

1625
02:22:09.319 --> 02:22:15.760
courthouse is not establishing a religion,
but an activity scene inside the courthouse is

1626
02:22:16.280 --> 02:22:20.840
Why not move both of them outside
the courthouse and invite other religious displays.

1627
02:22:22.840 --> 02:22:24.799
Well, here's the thing, you
know, and she does get this.

1628
02:22:26.040 --> 02:22:30.799
There is a difference between establishment and
exercise. And this is how they got

1629
02:22:30.799 --> 02:22:37.479
it wrong. They equate the two, and the ASLU has done this over

1630
02:22:37.520 --> 02:22:43.760
and over again. Free exercise religion
is not establishment. We've had this victory

1631
02:22:43.760 --> 02:22:50.319
in that case. As a matter
of fact, half shirt lift with they

1632
02:22:50.360 --> 02:22:54.399
had a place where anybody could fly
a flag and a regulation for that.

1633
02:22:54.559 --> 02:22:58.280
He decided he would fly a Christian
flag, and they said, no,

1634
02:22:58.360 --> 02:23:00.280
you can't do it. Once they
found out they approved it, and then

1635
02:23:00.319 --> 02:23:03.840
once once he said, well,
this is a Christian flag. He said,

1636
02:23:03.840 --> 02:23:05.600
no, then you can't put it
up. He took it to the

1637
02:23:05.600 --> 02:23:11.959
Supreme courtin he won and said,
that's viewpoint discrimination. You're not endorsing this

1638
02:23:13.079 --> 02:23:16.799
religion. You're just giving him access
to the same stuff that everybody else has.

1639
02:23:16.840 --> 02:23:18.680
And so it's starting our understanding of
this. It's starting to turn around.

1640
02:23:18.680 --> 02:23:26.120
But it all hinges really on understanding
that to allow people to freely exercise

1641
02:23:26.159 --> 02:23:31.319
the religion, like the coach who
after the game would go to the fifty

1642
02:23:31.399 --> 02:23:37.159
yard line and kneel and silently pray. Allowing people to exercise the religion even

1643
02:23:37.280 --> 02:23:41.920
if it is on some sacred government
property which they think is sacred, that

1644
02:23:43.040 --> 02:23:48.280
is not an establishment, she says. Is it China that is at war

1645
02:23:48.360 --> 02:23:52.159
with our religious freedom, our freedom
to worship? Is it China? Are

1646
02:23:52.159 --> 02:23:56.040
they our enemies? Or is it
I don't know, Maybe you know the

1647
02:23:56.079 --> 02:24:01.760
American government as we met the enemy
and they us, or more accurately,

1648
02:24:01.799 --> 02:24:05.280
they as us, she said.
I would say the people of Alleghany actually

1649
02:24:05.319 --> 02:24:11.000
had it mostly right. She said. Paradoxically, the people of Alleghany's openness

1650
02:24:11.000 --> 02:24:18.239
to America's multiple free and open expression
of worship is exactly what the Establishment Clause

1651
02:24:18.280 --> 02:24:22.479
is meant to protect. Our constitution
does not say anywhere, and certainly not

1652
02:24:22.520 --> 02:24:30.239
in the Establishment Clause, that we
have to hide symbols of our various religious

1653
02:24:30.399 --> 02:24:33.799
expressions. It says just the opposite. And you know, you see these

1654
02:24:33.879 --> 02:24:37.520
groups that push this. Now,
it's not just the ASL. You've got

1655
02:24:37.559 --> 02:24:41.600
a lot of groups that decided that
they can make a lot of money doing

1656
02:24:41.639 --> 02:24:43.239
this, and they do it.
They make a lot of money with their

1657
02:24:43.319 --> 02:24:48.879
lawsuits. There's one organization called the
Freedom from Religion, and you see them

1658
02:24:48.879 --> 02:24:52.120
all over the place. But that's
not what the First Amendment says. The

1659
02:24:52.120 --> 02:24:56.479
First Amendment says, the freedom of
religion makes all the difference in the world.

1660
02:24:58.200 --> 02:25:01.559
It's like the difference between a song
that says away in the Manger and

1661
02:25:01.600 --> 02:25:03.600
a song that says away with the
manger. It is freedom of religion,

1662
02:25:03.680 --> 02:25:07.239
not from religion. And they want
to put religion in the closet. They

1663
02:25:07.280 --> 02:25:11.360
want to banish it entirely. She
said. I remember the media coverage of

1664
02:25:11.399 --> 02:25:18.000
this case. Newsweeklies reported it as
if thank God, the ACLU has finally

1665
02:25:18.360 --> 02:25:24.520
saved America from being ravished by screaming
Bible thumpers. There was a little questioning

1666
02:25:24.600 --> 02:25:28.879
of what this decision would do to
us, or even if it was a

1667
02:25:28.920 --> 02:25:33.639
correct interpretation by the court. So
overnight, she said, it seemed to

1668
02:25:33.680 --> 02:25:39.159
me people reacted understandably enough. By
scrubbing the religious expressions of the holidays.

1669
02:25:41.000 --> 02:25:48.600
The playlists in Christmas time changed.
All the religious carols vanished like melted snow.

1670
02:25:48.440 --> 02:25:52.479
In came poppy, bouncy tunes that
have become quote unquote classics, but

1671
02:25:52.520 --> 02:26:01.000
they are also not actually about Christmas. Things like Baby It's Cold Outside made

1672
02:26:01.000 --> 02:26:05.879
a big comeback from nineteen forty four
I saw Mama Kissing Santa Claus or Now

1673
02:26:05.920 --> 02:26:09.680
We've Got as the number one hit. Rocking Round the Christmas Tree took at

1674
02:26:09.760 --> 02:26:13.680
sixty five years, I think to
get to number one, but finally got

1675
02:26:13.680 --> 02:26:18.520
there for Brenda Lee, written by
the Way by the same ten Panelley songwriter

1676
02:26:18.719 --> 02:26:24.959
that wrote Rudolph Red Nose Reindeer or
you Got All I Want for Christmas is

1677
02:26:24.600 --> 02:26:31.719
Jesus, No, it's you,
It's you, all right, Carriously The

1678
02:26:31.799 --> 02:26:35.639
nineteen fifty seven jingle bell Rock by
the Way, also written by the same

1679
02:26:35.760 --> 02:26:45.680
songwriter who wrote Rocking Around the Christmas
Tree or Rudolph Red Nose reindeer. So

1680
02:26:45.760 --> 02:26:50.479
that's about dancing, right, So
you've got Jack Frost nipping at your nose,

1681
02:26:50.479 --> 02:26:54.719
a Christmas song, all these things
winter nostalgia, some of them about

1682
02:26:54.760 --> 02:26:58.600
family, a lot of them about
reindeer and elves and Santa and everything,

1683
02:26:58.639 --> 02:27:05.280
but again moving Christ out of it. And so The Daily Mail reported in

1684
02:27:05.280 --> 02:27:09.959
twenty twenty that half of Britain's schools
had canceled Nativity plays. Surely the breaking

1685
02:27:11.000 --> 02:27:16.319
of the chain of memory among generations
of British school children, this breaking of

1686
02:27:16.360 --> 02:27:22.600
the chain between generations of children,
was one goal of the Trump lockdowns.

1687
02:27:22.600 --> 02:27:24.200
And she doesn't put Trump in there. I always put Trump in there with

1688
02:27:24.239 --> 02:27:28.959
the lockdowns because that was his policy. Well, it wasn't his policy.

1689
02:27:28.000 --> 02:27:33.440
It was the World Economic Forum and
the UN's policy, but he executed for

1690
02:27:33.520 --> 02:27:37.920
them. She said. This is
a point that I made generally in my

1691
02:27:37.000 --> 02:27:43.680
book The Bodies of Others. She
said alarmingly, when I searched Daily Mail

1692
02:27:45.399 --> 02:27:50.120
and Nativity plays no more, I
saw stories about schools banning Nativity plays or

1693
02:27:50.600 --> 02:27:56.239
barring parents from attending their own children's
Nativity plays. Go back to twenty twelve.

1694
02:27:56.280 --> 02:28:01.959
That's when they started doing this stuff. Twenty necessarily just picked up there.

1695
02:28:03.520 --> 02:28:07.520
So there was a drumbeat of escalation
in recent years. This is the

1696
02:28:07.639 --> 02:28:16.120
drip, drip, drip of water
intentionally set to slowly boil of deliberate cultural

1697
02:28:16.280 --> 02:28:20.440
change. You do it from the
inside, You do it chaos, and

1698
02:28:20.479 --> 02:28:22.319
you do it iteratively. It's about
you said, so, of course you

1699
02:28:22.360 --> 02:28:26.120
know where this is going. Because
Marxists do not like families, just as

1700
02:28:26.120 --> 02:28:31.799
they don't like religion. Schools in
England now ban parents from attending their own

1701
02:28:31.840 --> 02:28:37.879
children's Nativity plays due to colds flues
and supposedly COVID. The state has finally

1702
02:28:37.920 --> 02:28:43.600
taken your child and taken away Christmas. So what else debut? By the

1703
02:28:43.760 --> 02:28:48.000
twenty eighteens, you had a range
of new Christmas movies that depicted cherished Christmas

1704
02:28:48.040 --> 02:28:56.280
symbols as tawdry, drunk, or
sexually licentious, such as the twenty fourteen

1705
02:28:56.319 --> 02:29:01.399
film Bad Santa with Billy Bob Thornton. And she's got a picture of that

1706
02:29:01.520 --> 02:29:07.559
there in the article of Billy Bob
Thornton. The and the picture that she

1707
02:29:07.639 --> 02:29:13.760
put up was for their unrated version
that they put out there is twenty twenty

1708
02:29:13.799 --> 02:29:20.760
two's It's a Wonderful Binge A send
up of Christmas classics, but in this

1709
02:29:20.840 --> 02:29:26.280
holiday movie, Saint Nick is inebriated
and the setting is the world in which

1710
02:29:26.280 --> 02:29:31.120
all alcohol is banned. So Christmas
represents the one time to binge on intoxicants.

1711
02:29:31.719 --> 02:29:39.719
Isn't that great? Well, you
know, have you had enough think

1712
02:29:39.760 --> 02:29:43.639
about this? Think about what you
can do to cultivate things that are good,

1713
02:29:45.440 --> 02:29:48.600
things that are pure with your family. Think about what you can do

1714
02:29:48.639 --> 02:29:54.040
to cultivate their relationship with Christ.
You know, because liberty and family are

1715
02:29:54.040 --> 02:29:56.680
great, and we've got a lot
of songs and traditions and movies that celebrate

1716
02:29:56.760 --> 02:30:05.079
those things. But those are simple
the blessings, and we don't want to

1717
02:30:05.159 --> 02:30:11.200
grab just the gift and forget the
giver. We don't want to look at

1718
02:30:11.200 --> 02:30:16.920
the trappings of the blessings that God
has given us and forget the source of

1719
02:30:16.959 --> 02:30:20.479
those blessings. And that's one of
the reasons why this is happening. You

1720
02:30:20.520 --> 02:30:26.719
know. Culture is downstream from religion, and religion is downstream from your relationship

1721
02:30:26.799 --> 02:30:31.280
with God. That's where it really
starts. So reflect on those blessings that

1722
02:30:31.280 --> 02:30:35.719
we've lost and see if we can't
turn this thing around, at least for

1723
02:30:35.799 --> 02:30:39.360
yourself and for your family. You
know. One of the things that I

1724
02:30:39.440 --> 02:30:43.760
like to play every year is something
from it. It looks like it was

1725
02:30:43.799 --> 02:30:52.639
a small, small family production company
called Shark Bite Productions. I just came

1726
02:30:52.680 --> 02:30:54.440
across it a few years ago and
I used to I've been playing it,

1727
02:30:56.079 --> 02:30:58.360
you know, when I was at
INFO Wars, playing it every year with

1728
02:30:58.479 --> 02:31:03.159
this show as well. I looked
to see if I could find them anywhere,

1729
02:31:03.399 --> 02:31:09.040
and they seem to have gone out
of business, even though the video

1730
02:31:09.120 --> 02:31:11.479
is still there on YouTube. They
said when they put it together, and

1731
02:31:11.520 --> 02:31:18.200
again there was an older guy who
they did a video talking about their production

1732
02:31:18.319 --> 02:31:20.440
company. And so they had some
young kids and it's kind of some of

1733
02:31:20.479 --> 02:31:24.959
the stuff that we used to do
with our family. And they had an

1734
02:31:24.959 --> 02:31:30.280
older guy and he had worked with
the state of Bobby Darren. That's why

1735
02:31:30.280 --> 02:31:33.799
they call it Shark Bite Productions.
And he was putting together a lot of

1736
02:31:33.879 --> 02:31:37.799
archives for their stuff and managing it
for them, and they decided that they

1737
02:31:37.840 --> 02:31:43.879
wanted to do this kind of a
nostalgic production and feature Bobby Darren's song Christmas

1738
02:31:43.159 --> 02:31:48.280
Old Aying Sign, and they gave
him the permission to do that. And

1739
02:31:48.559 --> 02:31:54.719
so even though the production company,
the family is no longer around. Evidently,

1740
02:31:56.479 --> 02:31:58.799
at least we still have the video. This is what it looks like

1741
02:31:58.840 --> 02:32:03.920
and has read you all the different
things that Naomi Wolf was talking about that

1742
02:32:03.000 --> 02:32:09.319
she enjoyed. This is the family
of the nostalgia that they really did a

1743
02:32:09.360 --> 02:32:13.399
great job of capturing in this video. Thankies and gentlemen. Here is Bobby

1744
02:32:13.520 --> 02:32:45.440
Darren when Missiletoe and Timsulow painted time
valent back home My go hellos. I

You're listening to the David Knight Show.

1752
02:36:11.399 --> 02:36:16.920
Oh that's really nice on rock find
Christy Ripperger says thank you for the tip,

1753
02:36:16.319 --> 02:36:20.520
says Merry Christmas to the Night family
and the Chat family. I live

1754
02:36:20.600 --> 02:36:24.520
close to Lake Square Mall and would
like to see Catherine. The website doesn't

1755
02:36:24.559 --> 02:36:28.239
show her in upcoming events and the
info for the future concerts to be appreciated.

1756
02:36:28.280 --> 02:36:31.959
Well, hopefully her parents hear this
and maybe they can tell us about

1757
02:36:33.000 --> 02:36:41.399
that. Let's uh yeah, people
are talking about how difficult housing has become

1758
02:36:41.639 --> 02:36:46.639
and how expensive it has become.
You got babelm Bee's this gingerbread house in

1759
02:36:46.760 --> 02:36:52.920
California listed on Zillo for one point
nine million dollars. It's very much like

1760
02:36:52.000 --> 02:36:56.719
the house I was describing the other
day back in the eighties. I was

1761
02:36:56.760 --> 02:37:00.479
one hundred at one and a half
million or something like that. Thisston built

1762
02:37:00.559 --> 02:37:03.239
gingerbread house, as they describe it
on Zilo, is truly one of a

1763
02:37:03.360 --> 02:37:09.920
kind, featuring frosted windows, well
established icing trees, and gum drop roofline.

1764
02:37:09.040 --> 02:37:13.360
You will feel the upscale nature of
the gingerbread home from the moment you

1765
02:37:13.479 --> 02:37:16.959
see it. Welcome to your next
home. Sources report that over a dozen

1766
02:37:18.000 --> 02:37:22.680
offers have already been made, including
from local newlyweds. And we've been desperately

1767
02:37:22.760 --> 02:37:24.840
waiting for a more affordable home to
come on the market, he said.

1768
02:37:24.879 --> 02:37:28.040
But we're still trying to negotiate a
couple of things, like you know,

1769
02:37:28.159 --> 02:37:31.920
cleaning up the icing drips on the
windows cells. But this is the best

1770
02:37:31.959 --> 02:37:39.239
option that we've seen in LA for
years. One point nine million dollars gingerbread

1771
02:37:39.239 --> 02:37:46.879
house. And then there's this article
from zero Hedge rocking round the plastic tree.

1772
02:37:48.079 --> 02:37:50.399
This is another one of the traditions
that seems to have gone by the

1773
02:37:50.440 --> 02:37:54.760
wayside. You know, it used
to be that was something that even when

1774
02:37:54.799 --> 02:37:56.639
I lived in Tampa that was you
know, as hot as it was there.

1775
02:37:56.719 --> 02:38:01.040
We would get Christmas trees, real
Christmas trees every year here and that

1776
02:38:01.120 --> 02:38:03.120
was a big part of it.
We always enjoyed. It's a big part

1777
02:38:03.159 --> 02:38:07.559
of a lot of the Christmas movies, you know, like Christmas Vacation or

1778
02:38:07.680 --> 02:38:11.680
Christmas Story going to Christmas tree lots
or in the extreme case for comedy the

1779
02:38:13.680 --> 02:38:16.639
I think some people would go out
to the Christmas tree farms and get it.

1780
02:38:16.719 --> 02:38:22.520
But you know, Christmas Vacation around
here, you know, it looked

1781
02:38:22.600 --> 02:38:24.360
last year because I thought it'd be
nice to get something that because I love

1782
02:38:24.399 --> 02:38:30.159
the way they smell. But I
didn't see anywhere around here where there was

1783
02:38:30.280 --> 02:38:33.280
on them. I guess there is
somewhere. We used to get them from

1784
02:38:33.360 --> 02:38:37.959
Western North Carolina. That's where they
used to bring them down from to Tampa.

1785
02:38:37.799 --> 02:38:43.760
And it was always we go around
our thing in Florida because it was

1786
02:38:43.799 --> 02:38:48.239
always so hot. You'd make the
people, the guy who's showing you around

1787
02:38:48.239 --> 02:38:54.520
trying to tell you the Christmas tree
would have to open the thing up and

1788
02:38:54.120 --> 02:38:58.159
bang it the trunk on the ground
and see if all the needles would stay

1789
02:38:58.239 --> 02:39:03.559
on. That was if it was
not dead yet, and that was a

1790
02:39:03.760 --> 02:39:07.520
prerequisite to actually buying the thing.
But yeah, Karen and I are our

1791
02:39:07.600 --> 02:39:13.879
first first house, our first Christmas
tree. We both wanted it really badly,

1792
02:39:13.920 --> 02:39:18.520
and it was super expensive for us
in Houston. But we got this

1793
02:39:18.719 --> 02:39:22.959
big tall tree because we had a
We had a small house. It was

1794
02:39:22.559 --> 02:39:26.319
probably about thirteen hundred square feet or
fourteen. It was just the two of

1795
02:39:26.440 --> 02:39:33.559
us, and it had a vaulted
ceiling in the in the living room.

1796
02:39:33.799 --> 02:39:37.479
But the living room was very small
in spite of the fact that it had

1797
02:39:37.520 --> 02:39:39.799
a twenty foot ceiling. But you
know, we looked at this thing,

1798
02:39:39.840 --> 02:39:41.440
it's like, oh, we got
a twenty foots so we can get a

1799
02:39:41.559 --> 02:39:43.920
really tall tree. We got a
really tall tree, really tall tree that

1800
02:39:43.959 --> 02:39:50.200
we could not have fit in the
houses of our parents and so. But

1801
02:39:50.319 --> 02:39:54.440
when we opened it up, even
though it wasn't a really fat tree,

1802
02:39:54.559 --> 02:39:58.639
it filled up the entire room and
we could cannot set in our couch or

1803
02:39:58.680 --> 02:40:03.479
the It just opens up into everything. It was a joke. Everybody was

1804
02:40:03.559 --> 02:40:05.600
laughing at us when they came over
to the house. Couldn't see the TV

1805
02:40:05.760 --> 02:40:11.399
set. It was crazy. And
of course by the time we took it

1806
02:40:11.479 --> 02:40:15.719
down, it didn't have a single
needle left on it. And I had

1807
02:40:15.760 --> 02:40:18.360
to cut that thing up with a
chainsaw in the living room to get it

1808
02:40:18.440 --> 02:40:22.200
out of the house because the limbs
then were very, very stiff. But

1809
02:40:22.360 --> 02:40:24.840
right now, you know, it
looks like and again I don't see any

1810
02:40:24.840 --> 02:40:31.120
evidence of Christmas tree lots around here, So most people are going plastic now

1811
02:40:33.079 --> 02:40:37.360
fitting epithet, Isn't it that not
to say that the you know, the

1812
02:40:37.440 --> 02:40:41.840
plastic trees are fine, but it
is something that has gone away. And

1813
02:40:41.920 --> 02:40:50.639
then of course there's the tradition of
the nutcracker. Jeffrey Tucker at Brownstone wrote

1814
02:40:50.639 --> 02:40:54.559
an op ed piece about this,
about the nutcracker, And you know,

1815
02:40:54.719 --> 02:41:00.120
it is at the same time that
it is something of a tradition, like

1816
02:41:00.200 --> 02:41:03.639
the music and I've got a couple
of songs from The Nutcracker in the album

1817
02:41:03.719 --> 02:41:05.840
that I put in, you know, the the Russian Dance that I modified,

1818
02:41:05.920 --> 02:41:11.000
and then the the Sugar Pump Ferry, which I just basically did it

1819
02:41:11.280 --> 02:41:13.600
the way it was done and did
abbreviated version of it. But I liked

1820
02:41:13.680 --> 02:41:20.639
what this a cappella group, Straight
No Chaser did about the Nutcracker. Uh,

1821
02:41:20.520 --> 02:41:26.920
they did a parody of it.
From a man's perspective about how much

1822
02:41:26.959 --> 02:41:31.680
he dreads the annual occurrence of this
ballet. Here's a little bit of what

1823
02:41:31.799 --> 02:41:41.000
they did, raise christside. But
there's one lousy traugy. There's a certain

1824
02:41:41.760 --> 02:41:56.159
us g is trying to find out. I'm watching the game, but some

1825
02:41:56.559 --> 02:42:03.000
things wrong, said my wife the
song I know that look must be me.

1826
02:42:03.200 --> 02:42:05.920
It's not Lauren p serving no clue. What did I do? She

1827
02:42:07.040 --> 02:42:13.120
sounds a disbelief. What. Yeah, that's Uh. That pretty much sums

1828
02:42:13.159 --> 02:42:16.079
it up from our perspective. Yeah, I like the music so much,

1829
02:42:16.120 --> 02:42:22.159
and occasionally, you know, you
forget just how cringey ballets are. When

1830
02:42:22.639 --> 02:42:28.799
we first Christmas, after we brought
our daughter back, we took her to

1831
02:42:28.200 --> 02:42:31.680
build a bear and let her build
a bear and got her all dressed up,

1832
02:42:31.719 --> 02:42:33.639
and we got all dressed up,
and Karen and I, because the

1833
02:42:33.719 --> 02:42:37.799
boys knew better than to go do
better than me to go to the Nutcracker.

1834
02:42:39.120 --> 02:42:41.079
And we took her to the Nutcracker. And she's looking at it like

1835
02:42:43.200 --> 02:42:48.000
this place is really strange. Even
she thought it was really strange. But

1836
02:42:48.440 --> 02:42:52.520
Jeffrey Tucker, in terms of talking
about he says, this most implausible American

1837
02:42:52.559 --> 02:42:56.319
tradition. You can imagine bringing Russia
straight to your hometown along with the men

1838
02:42:56.399 --> 02:43:01.479
in tights. It's no wonder why
the music is brilliant, elegant, and

1839
02:43:01.600 --> 02:43:07.280
vaguely familiar to everyone. It's now
out of copyright. The melodies are filled

1840
02:43:07.319 --> 02:43:09.840
with magic, fantasy, mystery,
love, strange sounds, and you never

1841
02:43:11.040 --> 02:43:16.879
otherwise that you never otherwise hear in
an unrelenting spectacle. No matter how classical

1842
02:43:18.040 --> 02:43:22.040
Old World ballet is, it never
ceases to amaze us to watch this highly

1843
02:43:22.120 --> 02:43:28.280
specialized combination of athleticism and art and
action. Well he lost me there,

1844
02:43:28.360 --> 02:43:30.280
but you know, I do like
the music anyway, he says. But

1845
02:43:30.360 --> 02:43:35.159
think about this. This ballet debuted
in eighteen ninety two. The generation of

1846
02:43:35.239 --> 02:43:39.680
Russians living in Saint Petersburg that saw
it for the first time, was experiencing

1847
02:43:39.760 --> 02:43:45.040
a level of prosperity that had never
before been seen in history. And it

1848
02:43:45.159 --> 02:43:48.360
was the same all over Europe,
of which Russia was then considered be a

1849
02:43:48.440 --> 02:43:54.639
part. This was a time of
the full maturation of the Industrial Revolution.

1850
02:43:54.639 --> 02:44:00.399
Income was growing and growing dramatically.
Lives were longer infant. Mortality he was

1851
02:44:00.440 --> 02:44:05.840
plummeting. The middle class could live
in security and in comfortable homes. The

1852
02:44:05.959 --> 02:44:11.079
practical arts, and then things like
electricity, lighting, telephones, universal medicine,

1853
02:44:11.079 --> 02:44:16.479
indoor plumbing. These were in a
boom phase. And so he says,

1854
02:44:16.520 --> 02:44:20.959
you see hints of all these things
in the opening scenes of The Nutcracker.

1855
02:44:20.799 --> 02:44:24.360
You're in a home with beautifully lit
tree, the several generations of extended

1856
02:44:24.440 --> 02:44:28.879
family, which we don't have anymore. For the most part, we got

1857
02:44:28.920 --> 02:44:33.879
the nuclear family, but not the
extended family. They're celebrating the great season

1858
02:44:33.079 --> 02:44:39.920
with abundant gifts and symbols of abundance. Think of the person of the Nutcracker

1859
02:44:39.000 --> 02:44:43.520
himself. He's a soldier, but
not a killer. He's not a person

1860
02:44:43.559 --> 02:44:48.479
who's destined for being maimed and killed
or for slaughtering others. A soldier in

1861
02:44:48.600 --> 02:44:52.680
those days was a symbol of the
nation, a protector, a well dressed

1862
02:44:52.760 --> 02:45:00.559
person of discipline and dignity who made
the peace possible. He was an extension

1863
02:45:00.840 --> 02:45:07.360
of regular society, someone who was
performing a light duty, deserving of extra

1864
02:45:07.520 --> 02:45:11.959
respect. Well, he really nailed
it there, Jeffrey Tucker, really nailed

1865
02:45:11.959 --> 02:45:16.200
it there. Think about that.
A time began to emerge though that has

1866
02:45:16.239 --> 02:45:18.920
haunted me ever since. A theme
brother began to emerge. He says,

1867
02:45:18.959 --> 02:45:24.760
what will these works that we see
in the done in the eighteen hundreds,

1868
02:45:24.040 --> 02:45:28.520
what do they all have in common? He says, once you see it,

1869
02:45:28.559 --> 02:45:33.479
you can't unsee it. In literature, he said, none of these

1870
02:45:33.520 --> 02:45:35.920
writers, and this goes for Tchaikowski
himself could have imagined the horror that was

1871
02:45:35.959 --> 02:45:39.159
going to be unleashed. Again,
going back to the First World War,

1872
02:45:41.879 --> 02:45:46.079
he said, the killing fields,
thirty eight million people ended up dead,

1873
02:45:46.159 --> 02:45:52.120
wounded, missing. That was unconceivable. The concept of a total war that

1874
02:45:52.280 --> 02:45:58.600
did not exclude civilian population but rather
made everyone a part of the army was

1875
02:45:58.760 --> 02:46:03.840
not in their field of Many historians
describe World War One as a calamity that

1876
02:46:03.920 --> 02:46:07.680
no one in particular intended It was
a result of states that were pushing out

1877
02:46:07.799 --> 02:46:13.319
the boundaries of their belligerence and their
power, a consequence of leaders who imagined

1878
02:46:13.840 --> 02:46:18.799
that the more they pushed, the
more they could create a globe of justice,

1879
02:46:18.920 --> 02:46:22.319
freedom and peace. But look at
the reality, Look at the mess

1880
02:46:22.399 --> 02:46:28.680
they made. It was not only
the direct carnage, it was the ghastly

1881
02:46:28.799 --> 02:46:33.959
possibilities that this war opened up.
It inaugurated a century of central planning,

1882
02:46:33.760 --> 02:46:43.399
statism, communism, fascism, and
war. How could they have known nothing

1883
02:46:43.559 --> 02:46:46.040
like this had ever happened. And
you know, when you look at this,

1884
02:46:46.159 --> 02:46:50.879
you have to think, are we
on the cusp of something like this?

1885
02:46:52.840 --> 02:46:58.360
I have a feeling that we are. Quite frankly, we should be

1886
02:46:58.360 --> 02:47:03.680
concerned about it. We should plan
for should pray about it. We don't

1887
02:47:03.719 --> 02:47:09.120
have to fear it if we are
Christians. That's the thing that the gift

1888
02:47:09.280 --> 02:47:13.959
that Christ has given to us.
But think about how their society was radically

1889
02:47:15.120 --> 02:47:20.719
altered by these wars, and think
about what these people dependinggon same people who

1890
02:47:20.760 --> 02:47:24.280
want to put their weapons facilities in
Ukraine because we can never have enough weapons

1891
02:47:24.319 --> 02:47:30.639
being built to kill people. They're
now on the path to creating autonomous killer

1892
02:47:30.799 --> 02:47:37.040
robots, autonomous killer drones, and
who knows what in terms of biological and

1893
02:47:37.159 --> 02:47:43.319
chemical warfare, not even to mention
the nuclear warfare. And so we may

1894
02:47:43.399 --> 02:47:48.360
be in this particular situation, this
fourth turning, This is a situation where

1895
02:47:48.440 --> 02:47:56.520
we need to be aware and we
need to strengthen the foundations and the principles

1896
02:47:56.280 --> 02:48:01.399
that are going to help us to
have a an orderly, peaceful and a

1897
02:48:01.479 --> 02:48:07.600
Christian society, because if we don't, it is all going to get swept

1898
02:48:07.639 --> 02:48:11.239
away in a moment, just as
they did there. Well, before we

1899
02:48:11.360 --> 02:48:15.319
run out of time, I want
to play for you another tradition that we

1900
02:48:15.479 --> 02:48:20.559
have, and that is the story
about the creation of the Federal Reserve.

1901
02:48:20.600 --> 02:48:22.520
Tony and I talked about this a
little bit yesterday. It's a wonderful lie.

1902
02:48:24.559 --> 02:48:30.200
I thought it was very interesting the
connections between the creation of the Federal

1903
02:48:30.239 --> 02:48:33.000
Reserve. If you look at the
way they engineered the banking runs and other

1904
02:48:33.079 --> 02:48:35.360
things like that to create the Federal
Reserve, and the way the villain who

1905
02:48:35.520 --> 02:48:41.319
they patterned after JP Morgan in the
story, the way he tries to engineer

1906
02:48:41.399 --> 02:48:46.399
runs to drive his competitor out of
business. And so I talked about that

1907
02:48:46.559 --> 02:48:50.760
as I've mentioned before when I did
this ten years ago, the one hundredth

1908
02:48:50.760 --> 02:48:54.840
anniversary of what they pushed together on
that December the twenty third tomorrow will be

1909
02:48:54.879 --> 02:49:00.319
the one hundred and tenth anniversary of
that. As many people who who were

1910
02:49:00.399 --> 02:49:03.040
opposing it, who did not want
it, were out, they snuck that

1911
02:49:03.159 --> 02:49:07.840
thing in and the Federal Reserve has
been sneaking things to our detriment ever since.

1912
02:49:09.239 --> 02:49:13.600
Again, one of the ways that
you can prepare for the machinations and

1913
02:49:13.760 --> 02:49:18.319
the deprivations of the Fiat currency.
The David night Gold will take you to

1914
02:49:18.520 --> 02:49:24.040
Tony Ardaban's wives Wolf Gold and we
really do appreciate Tony's support and friendship.

1915
02:49:24.200 --> 02:49:31.120
Then he'll be here next next week
some along with Guard Goldsmith. But here's

1916
02:49:31.239 --> 02:49:35.440
the first thing that ever got censored
by on info Wars. It was in

1917
02:49:35.479 --> 02:49:41.000
twenty thirteen and didn't get any more
censorship until twenty eighteen where they purged everything.

1918
02:49:41.319 --> 02:49:43.319
But here's why they didn't want you
to think about with the Federal Reserve

1919
02:49:43.360 --> 02:49:48.719
for some reason on YouTube. Over
the last one hundred years, the Federal

1920
02:49:48.760 --> 02:49:52.319
Reserve has created bubbles and burst them, enslaved us with debt, and destroyed

1921
02:49:52.360 --> 02:49:58.559
our purchasing power through inflation. Yes, it's been a wonderful lie for the

1922
02:49:58.639 --> 02:50:03.799
bakers. Ranking parallels and Frank Capra's
It's a wonderful life to the lies and

1923
02:50:03.920 --> 02:50:07.600
tricks that real bankers used to create
the Federal Reserve. Human nature doesn't change,

1924
02:50:07.799 --> 02:50:11.959
and the greedy elite of nineteen thirteen
in twenty thirteen look and act a

1925
02:50:13.040 --> 02:50:16.840
lot like Potter the banker in the
movie. And many Americans are left like

1926
02:50:16.959 --> 02:50:22.879
George Bailey, staring into the abyss
as their dreams collapse and they face financial

1927
02:50:22.959 --> 02:50:24.840
room. Do we live in a
country that looks a lot more like Pottersville

1928
02:50:24.879 --> 02:50:30.159
than Bedford Falls? What does Frank
Capra's film show us about how we got

1929
02:50:30.200 --> 02:50:33.799
here and how we can get out? When the Federal Reserve was created two

1930
02:50:33.879 --> 02:50:37.799
days before Christmas one hundred years ago, it was a culmination of six years

1931
02:50:37.879 --> 02:50:41.879
of fraud, fear, and manipulation. I've never really seen one, but

1932
02:50:41.000 --> 02:50:45.959
that's got all the air marks of
being a run. The Panic of nineteen

1933
02:50:46.000 --> 02:50:48.559
oh seven was used to shape public
support for the FED. The panic was

1934
02:50:48.600 --> 02:50:52.319
triggered by rumors that two major banks
were about to become insolvent, just as

1935
02:50:52.360 --> 02:50:56.959
we see in the movie. George, there is a room around town that

1936
02:50:56.120 --> 02:51:01.719
you've close your doors. Is that
true? I am going all out to

1937
02:51:01.840 --> 02:51:07.719
help in this crisis. I have
just guaranteed the bank sufficient funds to meet

1938
02:51:07.799 --> 02:51:13.559
their needs. They will close up
for a week and then reopen. Just

1939
02:51:13.639 --> 02:51:18.120
took over the bank. I may
lose a fortune, but I am willing

1940
02:51:18.280 --> 02:51:22.440
to guarantee your people too. Just
tell them to bring their shares over here

1941
02:51:22.680 --> 02:51:26.280
and I will pay fifty cents on
the dollar. Are you never miss a

1942
02:51:26.360 --> 02:51:31.399
track? Do your potter? Unfortunately, JP Morgan got away with the deception

1943
02:51:31.719 --> 02:51:35.879
and was able to shut down competitors
and snapped up assets at fire cell prices.

1944
02:51:35.600 --> 02:51:39.360
Take during the depression, for instance, you and I were the only

1945
02:51:39.440 --> 02:51:45.559
ones that kept our heads. You
saved the building loan, I saved all

1946
02:51:45.600 --> 02:51:48.079
the rest. Yes, well,
most people say you stole all the rest.

1947
02:51:48.319 --> 02:51:54.479
The envious ones say that George the
size Charles Lindberg Senior warned people at

1948
02:51:54.520 --> 02:51:56.719
the time of the creation of the
Federal Reserve that it would not stop booming

1949
02:51:56.799 --> 02:52:01.239
by cycles, but would actually create
them to benefit its private owners. Here's

1950
02:52:01.280 --> 02:52:05.879
what he said. To cause high
prices, all the Federal Reserve Board will

1951
02:52:05.920 --> 02:52:09.239
do will be to lower the rediscount
rate, producing an expansion of credit and

1952
02:52:09.319 --> 02:52:13.159
a rising stock market. Then when
businessmen are adjusted to these conditions, it

1953
02:52:13.200 --> 02:52:18.200
can check prosperity in mid career by
arbitrarily raising the rate of interest. It

1954
02:52:18.280 --> 02:52:22.120
can cause a pendulum of rising and
falling market to swing gently back and forth,

1955
02:52:22.440 --> 02:52:26.000
or cause violent fluctuations by a greater
rate variation, And in either case

1956
02:52:26.680 --> 02:52:31.719
it will possess inside information as to
the financial conditions and advance knowledge of the

1957
02:52:31.760 --> 02:52:35.360
coming change, either up or down. This is the strangest, most dangerous

1958
02:52:35.360 --> 02:52:39.360
advantage ever placed in the hands of
a special privileged class by any government that

1959
02:52:39.520 --> 02:52:45.280
ever existed. The system is private, conducted for the sole purpose of obtaining

1960
02:52:45.319 --> 02:52:48.719
the greatest possible profits from the use
of other people's money. They know in

1961
02:52:48.840 --> 02:52:52.360
advance when to create panics to their
advantage, and they know when to stop

1962
02:52:52.440 --> 02:52:58.200
panic. Inflation and deflation work equally
well for them when they control the finance.

1963
02:52:58.719 --> 02:53:03.159
As we see in the movie,
all lending institutions have the same motivations.

1964
02:53:03.079 --> 02:53:07.959
Now you take this loan. He
is erny bishop. You know that

1965
02:53:07.680 --> 02:53:13.040
fella that sits around all day on
his brains and his taxi. You know

1966
02:53:13.680 --> 02:53:16.879
I happen to know. The bank
turned down this loan. But he comes

1967
02:53:18.040 --> 02:53:24.360
here and we're building him a house
worth five thousand dollars. What well I

1968
02:53:24.520 --> 02:53:28.959
handled that much? Potter? You
have all the papers, There is salary

1969
02:53:28.000 --> 02:53:31.360
insurance. I can personally vouch for
his character. Friends of you, Yes,

1970
02:53:33.040 --> 02:53:37.719
you see, if you shoot pool
with some employee here, you can

1971
02:53:37.840 --> 02:53:43.120
come and borrow money. What does
that get us? A discontented, lazy

1972
02:53:43.479 --> 02:53:48.000
rabble instead of a thrifty working class. As a former fdiic chair said,

1973
02:53:48.360 --> 02:53:52.520
all too often the large bank shoes
their models and their algorithms, and if

1974
02:53:52.520 --> 02:53:54.479
you don't fit in their boxes,
you don't get the loan. And God

1975
02:53:54.639 --> 02:53:58.920
frank legislation is tying the hands of
small lenders, shutting out buyers and shutting

1976
02:54:00.040 --> 02:54:03.159
down lenders. Today there are fewer
lenders than at any time the government has

1977
02:54:03.280 --> 02:54:07.319
kept records. Ten thousand banks disappeared
between nineteen eighty four and twenty eleven.

1978
02:54:07.559 --> 02:54:13.040
This town needs this measly one worse
institution, if only to have someplace where

1979
02:54:13.079 --> 02:54:16.879
people can come without crawling the Potter
Tomorrow, in the movie, George gets

1980
02:54:16.920 --> 02:54:20.479
to see what happens to the small
town if Potter didn't have competition from credit

1981
02:54:20.600 --> 02:54:24.120
unions and smaller lenders. If it
hadn't been for you, Yeah, it

1982
02:54:24.200 --> 02:54:28.000
hadn't been for me, everybody would
be a lot better off. My wife

1983
02:54:28.079 --> 02:54:31.440
and my kids and my friends are
look a little fellow. Why you go

1984
02:54:31.520 --> 02:54:35.639
out and haunt somebody else? Yeah? So you still think killing yourself would

1985
02:54:35.680 --> 02:54:39.680
make everyone feel happier? Eh Oh, I don't know. I guess you're

1986
02:54:39.760 --> 02:54:46.639
right. Suppose been butter if I've
never been born at all? Pottersville the

1987
02:54:46.719 --> 02:54:50.399
only business is thriving are vice people
are angry. The town is filled with

1988
02:54:50.520 --> 02:54:54.799
signs like keep moving, keep off
the grass. Bert the cop actually shoots

1989
02:54:54.799 --> 02:55:05.959
at George when he's running away,
and is no threat to anyone. Everyone

1990
02:55:05.120 --> 02:55:09.680
is a renter. No one has
a steak. Now you're any bishop and

1991
02:55:09.719 --> 02:55:11.239
you live in Bailey Park with your
wife and kid, bood blud, what's

1992
02:55:11.239 --> 02:55:13.959
the idea? I live in a
shack and Potterish feel. My wife ran

1993
02:55:15.000 --> 02:55:16.239
away three years ago and took the
kid, and I had never seen you

1994
02:55:16.319 --> 02:55:20.600
before in my life. See private
property and everyone having a steak is the

1995
02:55:20.719 --> 02:55:24.600
antidote to Pottersville. Here, you're
all business man here, go to make

1996
02:55:24.639 --> 02:55:28.399
them better. Citizen doesn't make them
better customers. But whether it's the Transpacific

1997
02:55:28.479 --> 02:55:33.959
Partnership or a global carbon tax,
the global elite don't see you as a

1998
02:55:33.000 --> 02:55:37.280
stakeholder. They want to turn us
all into serfs and treat us like cattle.

1999
02:55:37.680 --> 02:55:41.559
Just remember this, mister Potter,
that this rabble you're talking about,

2000
02:55:41.000 --> 02:55:45.440
they do most of the working and
paying and living and dying in this community.

2001
02:55:46.000 --> 02:55:48.120
Well is it too much to have
them work and pay and live and

2002
02:55:48.200 --> 02:55:50.680
die in a couple of decent rooms
in a bath anyway? My father didn't

2003
02:55:50.719 --> 02:55:54.479
think so. People were human beings
to him. But to you, a

2004
02:55:54.639 --> 02:55:58.639
warp frustrated old man, their cattle. Well, in my book he died

2005
02:55:58.680 --> 02:56:01.840
a much richer mount than your order. For I'm not interested in your book.

2006
02:56:01.879 --> 02:56:05.840
I'm talking about the building and loan. I know very well what you're

2007
02:56:05.879 --> 02:56:09.479
talking about. You were talking about
something you can't get your fingers on.

2008
02:56:09.959 --> 02:56:13.760
Speaking of riches, do you find
the salary amounts amusing? When Potter tries

2009
02:56:13.799 --> 02:56:18.959
to buy George off, look at
your side, young man twenty seven,

2010
02:56:20.600 --> 02:56:24.920
twenty eight married, making me say
forty a week, forty five, forty

2011
02:56:26.000 --> 02:56:31.000
five, forty five, George,
I'll start you out at twenty thousand dollars

2012
02:56:31.040 --> 02:56:41.559
a year. Twenty thousand dollars a
year, you wouldn't mind living in the

2013
02:56:41.680 --> 02:56:46.159
nicest house in town, buying your
wife a lot of fine clothes, a

2014
02:56:46.239 --> 02:56:50.600
couple of business trips in New York
year, maybe once in a while Europe.

2015
02:56:50.000 --> 02:56:54.360
You wouldn't mind that? Would you
do? Would I? Even if

2016
02:56:54.440 --> 02:56:56.719
George had saved a lot of his
twenty thousand dollars salary, would it have

2017
02:56:56.840 --> 02:57:01.479
bought much A couple of decades later, By even the government's very conservative estimate

2018
02:57:01.520 --> 02:57:07.200
of inflation, the dollar has lost
ninety percent of its value since nineteen forty

2019
02:57:07.239 --> 02:57:11.239
seven, when the movie was made. The Fed's deliberate inflation is devastating to

2020
02:57:11.319 --> 02:57:15.719
anyone trying to accumulate wealth through hard
work and saving. So what is the

2021
02:57:15.799 --> 02:57:18.159
answer to all the George Bailey's out
there? One hundred years after the government

2022
02:57:18.239 --> 02:57:22.479
gave control of our money supply to
private bankers like Potter. Well, Potter

2023
02:57:22.600 --> 02:57:26.079
had more money than he could spend. But would any of you want to

2024
02:57:26.120 --> 02:57:30.680
be Potter? You sit around here
and you spend your little webs, and

2025
02:57:30.719 --> 02:57:33.479
you think the whole world revolved around
you and your money. Well it doesn't,

2026
02:57:33.520 --> 02:57:37.360
mister Potter, in the whole vast
configuration of things, I'd say you

2027
02:57:37.440 --> 02:57:41.719
were nothing but a scurvy little spider. George Bailey finally sees how rich his

2028
02:57:41.799 --> 02:57:46.680
own life is as he sees the
fruits of relationship, honesty, and compassion.

2029
02:57:52.280 --> 02:57:54.959
I beat you here, to you
in jail, going home. They're

2030
02:57:54.959 --> 02:57:58.799
waiting for you. And if the
public can awaken to the lives of the

2031
02:58:00.239 --> 02:58:05.079
reserve, if it could even be
audited, Wow, it would be a

2032
02:58:05.200 --> 02:58:09.040
huge step to breaking the change that
enslave all of us. But ultimately it

2033
02:58:09.200 --> 02:58:13.879
is God that change his minds and
change his heart. God hates oppression and

2034
02:58:15.040 --> 02:58:20.440
we can and should confidently pray that
he will stop it. I owe everything

2035
02:58:20.559 --> 02:58:26.159
to George Bailey. Help him.
Dear Father, Joseph, Jesus and Mary,

2036
02:58:28.040 --> 02:58:33.520
help my friend mister Bailey, Help
my son George tonight. He never

2037
02:58:33.639 --> 02:58:37.440
thinks about himself. God, that's
why he's in trouble. George is a

2038
02:58:37.479 --> 02:58:43.200
good guy. Give him a break. God, I love him. Dear

2039
02:58:43.239 --> 02:58:48.239
Lord, want your room tonight,
please God. He's there with Daddy.

2040
02:58:50.040 --> 02:59:01.719
Please. Gay. I'm not a
praying man. If you're up there and

2041
02:59:01.840 --> 02:59:43.120
you can hear me, Well,
that was ten years ago on the one

2042
02:59:43.239 --> 02:59:46.200
hundredth anniversary of the Federal Reserve.
Now there are one hundred and ten years

2043
02:59:46.200 --> 02:59:50.399
old. All the problems that we
talked about have now gotten worse. As

2044
02:59:50.440 --> 02:59:52.079
a matter of fact, the censorship
has now gotten worse. As I said,

2045
02:59:52.120 --> 02:59:56.639
they claimed they took the video down
because they claimed a copyright infringement.

2046
02:59:56.719 --> 03:00:01.280
But of course where did I get
those few clips that I used protected under

2047
03:00:01.440 --> 03:00:05.079
fair use? I got them from
the full movie that had been up for

2048
03:00:05.159 --> 03:00:09.079
a decade out a million views at
the time, for free. This is

2049
03:00:09.159 --> 03:00:15.239
before they paid anybody for anything,
before they ran the ads. But of

2050
03:00:15.280 --> 03:00:18.680
course I had their number, didn't
I had the number of these people on

2051
03:00:18.760 --> 03:00:22.760
what the system was there, and
of course they got my number as well.

2052
03:00:24.319 --> 03:00:26.799
They censored me. Now I can't
even put up Christmas songs. My

2053
03:00:28.000 --> 03:00:33.959
Christmas album got taken down. They
banned me instantly. But that's fine.

2054
03:00:33.479 --> 03:00:39.840
I really do appreciate the people who
have stood with us. They cannot tell

2055
03:00:39.879 --> 03:00:52.280
you how grateful we comment here from
Little John who says this goes out to

2056
03:00:52.399 --> 03:00:56.079
Karen because she's from New York.
The Yule log on TV. I think

2057
03:00:56.120 --> 03:01:00.319
it was Channel eleven. I don't
know what channel it was, but I

2058
03:01:00.399 --> 03:01:03.079
know that Karen has mentioned this in
the past to me, so I know

2059
03:01:03.239 --> 03:01:07.840
that you will remember that. And
on Rock Fan Andromeda, thank you very

2060
03:01:07.920 --> 03:01:11.239
much for the tip. Merry Christmas, they say, well, Merry Christmas

2061
03:01:11.319 --> 03:01:18.399
to all of you. And again, since we are taking the week off

2062
03:01:18.520 --> 03:01:20.799
next week and have a happy new
Year. We hope that this new year

2063
03:01:22.360 --> 03:01:26.000
will be happy. And maybe that's
not the right word. Maybe we need

2064
03:01:26.120 --> 03:01:31.559
to use the word a joyful new
year. Happiness is dependent on circumstances,

2065
03:01:31.600 --> 03:01:35.079
and none of us know what the
circumstances are going to be. But if

2066
03:01:35.120 --> 03:01:39.920
we have a connection to Christ,
the reason for this season, then we

2067
03:01:41.000 --> 03:01:45.159
can have joy even under the worst
of circumstances. So I'm going to close

2068
03:01:45.200 --> 03:01:48.719
and we'll go out with another favorite
of mine. They just play just a

2069
03:01:48.760 --> 03:01:52.799
little bit of it, Kenny Rodgers. Till the season comes round again,

2070
03:01:54.520 --> 03:01:58.120
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year's to
you all. May the new year be

2071
03:01:58.319 --> 03:02:09.920
blessed with good tidings till the next
time I see you again, And we'll

2072
03:02:09.040 --> 03:02:18.239
all join hands and remember this moment
and we'll love and we'll live in the

2073
03:02:18.479 --> 03:02:30.000
time that we have till the season
comes round again. If we must say

2074
03:02:30.319 --> 03:02:39.440
good man, let the spirit go
with you till the season comes round again.

2075
03:02:58.479 --> 03:03:01.360
I'm delighted to present something born from
my love for music and the Christmas

2076
03:03:01.440 --> 03:03:07.559
season. Christmas Night is a perfect
companiment for anything from family gatherings the moments

2077
03:03:07.639 --> 03:03:20.840
of peaceful reflection. I hope is
to provide a fresh take to the soundtrack

2078
03:03:20.959 --> 03:03:31.760
of Christmas. This collection of twenty
instrumental songs brings new life to timeless Christmas

2079
03:03:31.840 --> 03:04:03.040
classics with original orchestrations alongside lesser known, yet equally enchanting carols. For the

2080
03:04:03.120 --> 03:04:05.159
listeners of The David Night Show,
this is more than music. It's part

2081
03:04:05.200 --> 03:04:11.159
of our shared journey. Christmas Night
is available at the Davidnightshow dot com.

2082
03:04:11.680 --> 03:04:26.200
May it bring a little extra joy
and peace to your Christmas season. Thank

2083
03:04:26.239 --> 03:04:30.719
you for your unwavering support and for
joining me in this new musical adventure.

2084
03:04:33.879 --> 03:04:37.719
Merry Christmas to all, and to
all a good Christmas Night.
