Using free speech to free minds. You're listening to the David Knight Show.
As the clock strikes thirteen, we gather for the David Knight Show. I'm
Gardner Goldsmith filling in for David today and yes we are on Rockvin if you
were wondering about that. A couple minutes worth of tech work and we're rolling.
Great to be here with you everyone on this Thursday, the twenty eighth
day of February twenty twenty four, year of our Lord twenty twenty four.
You're going to have a busy day today. In about ten minutes, will
be joined by Glenn Jacobs, of course known for his work in the wrestling
world and his work for liberty. He's the mayor of Knox County, and
he has some information to give to us about some of his experiences with the
fine scarf Lady Deborah Burkes as he tells us what she offered some of the
folks who were trying to manage the political system in Tennessee. Plus, we'll
be joined by Tony Rdeburn at ten thirty to talk about the economy and much
much more. Join us in Rockman Rumble, and of course on David's liberty
Tarian Twitter feed. All right, boy, gotta say very satisfied to be
here with you and great cheers to you on this beautiful day in New England.
It feels like Old England here in New Hampshire. I'm Gardner Goldsmith filling
in for David Knight today and I want to wish David all the best as
he goes through some medical tests today. And I will be filling in for
David tomorrow on Good Friday. And we have a few things planned for you
in the program today that sort of have a little bit to deal with the
religious holiday coming up for Christians, and I welcome you to drop your comments
inside the Rumble chat and the Rockfinn Chat. We're also broadcasting on d Live.
And yes, it took a couple of minutes, had to do some
extra work there on Rockfin just to make sure everything was rolling for you over
there. So we'll check in with the chat for you and see what's happening
and feel free. Don't forget to go to the Davidnightshow dot com to find
out all the ways that you can get the David Night Night's Show. Check
out David through Wisewolf gold and you can go to its Davidnight dot gold to
check out Wisewolfgold. We talked to Tony Rdburn about that a little bit more
later in the program. Let's see what is scheduled for this day, the
twenty eighth day of March twenty twenty four. We've got a lot planned today
on the show. We'll be looking at what I typically do on my show
on Liberty Conspiracy in the evenings. Don't do this for MRCTV. You might
know my work from MRCTV, and thank you. I didn't even mention that
at the start of the show. We're gonna have a little newsflash, quick
update on the bridge collapse. Yeah, the Key Bridge. I mentioned this
last night on my program on Liberty Conspiracy. We've got a bridge collapse and
perhaps a constitutional collapse, in a deeper constitutional collapse than what we've already seen
over the past two hundred plus years, because unfortunately a lot of people are
looking at that bridge that they being extremely important, they say for America and
for the food supply and so on, and natural resources coming in, automobiles
coming in in Maryland. But the immediate response from Washington, in particular Joe
Biden and a couple congressmen. I know amazingly they're from Maryland. I know
saying that the whole bridge will be reconstructed, what about insurance for the shipping
company? I don't understand this. People from East Palestine are not happy about
that. But as a person who understands that they swear an oath to the
Constitution down there in Washington, d C. I should note to them that
there's nothing in the Constitution that gives them any money to rebuild a bridge,
or any power or any authority. And in fact, as a person who
is a voluntarist otherwise known as a libertarian anarchist, a Christian anarchist who believes
that no person can claim authority over you. You have to give your permission.
You are granted God given natural rights and free will, so no one
can impose his will on you. I often mentioned that even though the Constitution
does supposedly give us barriers, and they sign up to it, it's imposed
on me, it's imposed on you. The least we can ask is for
those people to fulfill their promises as they take control over us and claim that
even the Constitution has authority over us, which it doesn't. Glenn Jacobs will
be joining us in about five or ten minutes or so to tell us about
his experiences as they claimed a lot of power over us. And then we'll
go into homeowners and retirees and US warmongers wedding themselves to Israel in Washington,
d C. And we'll be joined by Tony rdieburn lanein or in the program
to talk about the economy as CBDC creeps much much closer. So let's check
out some of the big stories that have been popping up up everybody over the
past. Oh, I don't know how long, twenty four hours or so.
And for that, what I often do is give you a little bit
of a theme for something. So right now we'll do this. This is
from a little film that it did a while ago. It's about some bad
guys who appeared on the news flash. Yes, oh, hello, Hello,
where Mary's parents? Oh well, come hold in the second Mary's parents
burned to death last year. Wait a minute, I know you guys.
You're from the newsplash. All right, everybody, what's the word thunderbird?
It is from spinal tap. Give me some money. Stop wasting that.
You know what I won't? You knew what I need? Oh? Maybe
you don't do have to come back that out there. Tell you everything.
Miss someoney, start getting man, what a wonderful film, What a wonderful
film. On the drum beat, we hit it and let's get into it,
everybody. You might have heard that a politician who was well known for
a long time, former US Senator Joe Lieberman, died over the past twenty
four hours, died at the age of eighty two. According to news reports,
he died from complications from a fall. That is what his family told
the news. And also a new proposal in Toronto would tax residents of Toronto
over rainwater. That fun, all right, Hi Canada. Sorry, you
don't have many many places to escape to you that are much freer, but
there you go. Also, talking about the big story I mentioned about the
Key Bridge, well, the NTSB released its initial black box report about the
bridge and it turns out, yeah, the black box stopped recording when power
went out. But that doesn't stop the lawmakers as they call themselves, otherwise
known as statute writers, because there is a profound difference in any philosophy class
between statutes from the state politicians claiming power over you and natural law given to
you by God, which says that no one can claim power over you,
no matter how many people are in that assembly. It's not right for me
to claim power over you, and it's not right for fifty people to claim
power over you. But they do it. So here it is everybody,
Yes, lawmakers additional funding after Baltimore Bridge collapse. I know it's a shock,
isn't it. Yes? It is. There is of course the major,
major disaster. And as David mentioned, and I thought his coverage yesterday
of this was just the best that I saw of anybody yesterday. He mentioned
that, you know, the concrete down below all that stuff is unstable.
It's going to be years before they can get that thing rebuilt, clear out
all the debris, and it's going to really mess up a lot of the
supply chain for the Eastern seaboard. Plus, if you heard Laura Logan talking
about things, she made some points that were a little bit off, I
thought, as she claimed she didn't show evidence. She claimed that you know,
she has these contacts and so on inside Washington, and they were telling
her that this was a computer hack, that it was a sophisticated sabotage.
I don't know, I don't know. About that, but she made some
very valid points. I thought about the fact that the United States is going
to be hurt economically by this. A lot of the food supply, sugar,
cars, automobiles come into that area. And she also noted that a
lot of very dangerous materials that can't go through tunnels go over this bridge,
and they're going to have to be rerooted. They will be rerooted, but
it is going to mess up a lot. But as you can see on
the screen, Maryland lawmakers in Congress, lawmakers were already mulling legislation tuesday to
provide emergency funds to rebuild the you got it, Francis Scott Key Bridge in
Baltimore, which collapsed after being hit by a cargo ship. Now, one
of the things that I'll bring up is, as David Crockett noted in eighteen
thirty with his not yours to give speech, they don't have any power to
do that. They also are really stretching the constant if they can claim that
they can create interstates, which of course the United States government did after World
War Two. So just a quick piece of intellectual ammunition to hopefully give to
you that you can take with you, please, remember that in their US
Constitution, there are only three forms of land that the United States government can
control. One is territories before they can become states. Two is the ten
square mile area for the capital, which they decided on Washington, d C.
Hello swamp critters. And then the third is military garrisons. Military garrisons
do not include hundreds of miles of highway. I'm sorry, but that's just
not part of the deal. So I understand that everybody talks about how important
the infrastructure is and so on, but it's just not in the constitution.
And if those people want to deal with the US honestly, they can amend
the Constitution to try to tell us that they have this power. As they
go about it. Again, they don't literally have any authority over any of
us, but as far as the rules for their game goes, at least
they could do that. Right, you get up for breakfast to have the
English muffet or whatever, say please please just let me have this and know
that I'm dealing with a little bit of honesty down there at breakfast time.
But of course they have to try to cater. They have to try to
make it look like they're very active and yet strangely enough, this is not
something that Joe Biden did with the East Palestine and the railroad accident that happened
there. The people in East Palestine are very upset about this, and there
are a number of people in Hawaii who are very upset about the way that
Joe Biden came out yesterda or day before yesterday and not only claimed that he
had gone across that bridge many many times on a train, but also mentioned
that one hundred percent would be repaid. Well, let's take a closer look
at a little bit. I thought this was very good. This is Jim
Ferguson. He's a reporter from the UK, and he noted this about the
Key Bridge collapse. He says, it's even more devastating than it seems.
It's an economic nuclear strike. By now, most people have seen the shocking
images of the devastating collapse, and of course, indeed it would be hard
to forget the sight of the cargo ship. And David made a great point,
and other people that redacted have also made this point that the workers there
were just incredibly heroic. They closed things off, they stopped that traffic,
and they really minimized the number of a number of lives lost. And I'm
sure some of those people lost their lives in doing what they did, so
God, God blessed those people. But he notes here by now most people
have seen the shocking images. Indeed, it would be hard to forget the
sight of the cargo ship hitting the one point six mile bridge, with the
bridge almost instantly crumbling on impact. What caused the cargo ship to ram into
the bridge? What was faulty in the construction of the bridge to make it
collapse so readily, Well, that's you know, bridge construction there, it's
you know, you take out one of those things that is such a key
component of the supports. I can understand that. However, as many users
on social media platform X have noted, the ramifications are a disaster for the
US infrastructure. The entire harbor was the second busiest in the mid Atlantic,
and now thanks to this accident, it has been rendered completely inaccessible, to
say nothing of the enormous traffic problems now created by the collapse of the Francis
Scott Key Bridge. Were the conspiracy theorists on X and elsewhere onto something when
they suggested that this was perhaps a deliberate act of sabotage on the part of
China or another US adversary. Well, I don't understand why they would do
that as of right now. Probably not, And of course I think that
really pushes the China is our adversary sort of thing. So I don't know
about that. But we do know one thing. As spinal Taps said,
everybody they said, give me some money. I know about his clown.
I'm treating you cool. I'm putting you damn. But maybe I don't intend
to emp handed. So we have a lot of questions. Obviously, we
have a lot of questions about this, But one thing we don't have to
question is what is written in the US Constitution and what they are doing there
to try to cater and play favorites and even say that it is essential for
the United States. And now I want to welcome my guest to talk about
what he experienced. Next ten minutes or so, we're going to be joined
by Jacobs, mayor of Knox County, and a man who can relate to
us his experience as the United States tried to step in and claim that they
could do everything on the federal side, even tell us what jobs were essential
and what jobs were not essential. Glenn Jacobs is with us. Hi Glenn,
how are you? And good morning? Good morning Guard. How you
doing. I'm doing great, Welcome to the David Knight Show. I usually
see you in other forms. It was great to see you a weekend before
last. I really appreciate it and to see you great to see you.
You gave us a great speech. And folks, if you're not familiar,
Glenn is down in Tennessee. He also used to live up in New Hampshire.
We got to do each other real well. A lot of pro liberty
themes we would discuss, have great times. And Glenn is down in Tennessee
now and he's the mayor of Knox County. And Glenn during his speech here
in New Hampshire a couple of weeks ago, stopped up for the Free State
Project, gave a terrific speech about some of his experiences in his position as
mayor of Knox County, meeting with some of the officials from Washington, and
in particular we have Deborah Burkes right, Glenn, yes, sir, now,
conversation we had, oh yes, indeed, I happened to report from
MRCTV about a couple things. One was the fact that Deborah Burks and I'll
put this on the screen for both of us. Deborah Burkes admitted in Washington
in April that if someone dies with a positive PCR test, they're counting it
as a death from COVID caused by COVID, which of course means that no
one can ever know how many people died from this virus that they said was
a pandemic, but they can't say it was a pandemic. We also know
that medicare subsidized hospitals to the tune of sometimes four times what they normally would
have gotten from insurance if they got people on breathing apparatuses and claim that they
had been dealing with them with them for COVID. You met with Deborah Burks.
When was this, and tell us tell the audience of David Night Show
a little bit about just what she revealed to you behind closed doors. Glenn,
Yeah, this was in twenty twenty when COVID was kind of really kicking
up, and she came to Tennessee. The reason for that was she was
touring all the Southeastern Conference schools, So she had been to Kentucky, to
Lexington, she had been to Tesco's Alabama and came here, and what our
media did locally is, oh my gosh, things are so bad that Deborah
Brooks is coming. Well, it was actually just a routine thing that she
was doing, going around the country telling people what to do. But nevertheless,
it was not like we were having this big emergency here that required a
White House intervention. It was Deborah Burk's on tour. I could have got
the tour, I could a tour scarf. Forget the game. I wish,
yeah, exactly, I wish I got in a T shirt I had
thrown at a bonfire later. But in any case, if you're so inclined,
please pick up and read a copy of Scott Atlas's book, A Plague
Upon Our House, in which he lays out what was going on behind the
scenes. And we all think of fauci Is being the COVID guru. Well,
Fauci was the face of it, but it was really Burke's who was
the architect of everything going on. And recently she even admitted that, you
know, this whole thing about fifteen days to flatten the curve was really a
trojan horse to bring in the lockdowns and much more long term restrictions on the
American people. But when she came here, we met at the University of
Tennessee in one of the big conference rooms, and there were, oh gosh,
probably twenty people there. They all had PhDs and mds, with the
exception of me. It's in the room and we're all sitting there wearing masks,
sitting twenty five feet and the ironic thing about the masks was you couldn't
hear someone when they were talking, so they would take the mask off the
talk, and I'm like, let's see. If this is supposed to be
stopping spittle from coming out and spreading through the air, that's a heck of
a way to do it. Nevertheless, though, what struck me was,
first of all, you know, Burke's going back to Atlas's book, Burkes
did not actually have all this tremendous knowledge that was being ascribed to her.
She was pulling statistics from publicly available stuff, such as reports coming from the
States, even some websites. So what she was saying as authoritative knowledge was
not at all. You know, when we hear these daily death counts and
daily case counts, well, the problem with that is how were they getting
those from and in many cases they were aggregated over a certain period of time,
whether it's over the past few weeks or whatever, but they report him
as one day. And these were not real time statistics, and as you
said, they were very flawed because of the methodology that was being used to
gather in those stats. The thing, the thing that really got me was
she's Someone asked her what should we do here, and her response was,
when you need to shut down your bars and restaurants, especially those around campus.
And to their credit, someone pointed out, well, doctor Burkes,
the data shows that the virus is not spreading in bars and restaurants, which
frankly, we all knew, and she replied, yes, that's true,
but we have to send a message that this is a serious situation. It
was our campaign, it was marketing, yeah, it was theater and that's
what throughout COVID. I mean that all the mask mandates, all those things.
Now we look back and we realize that, you know, the masks
are ineffective. The reason that doctors were mass and operating rooms is not to
prevent airborne viruses. It is to keep blood out of their faces and mouths
and to keep the spit all out of wounds. Okay, Masks can be
effective against bacteria, which are much larger than viruses. In order to have
a mask which would be effective against the virus, you have to have a
respirator because you would inhibit the airflow to the point where you couldn't breathe,
because that's how small viruses are. But nevertheless, we were told at one
point that, you know, masks were the most important thing you can do.
No one knows where the six foot came from. I mean, Fauci's
admitted that. I think we did get a good lesson in hygiene and hand
washing, and that was probably productive, but that was maybe one of the
few things that actually came out of it. And of course, you know,
just shutting down the economy and locking our kids out of schools I think
are arguably the two biggest policy mistakes that if this country has ever made and
around the world. Going to say, Glenn, I know that you fought
very very hard about mandates for the kids and schools and so on, and
the composition of the Tennessee government and in your county made it very difficult to
sort of combat these things. After you've got agreements and then you had more
pressures and so on, and but you you really stood tall in that area
trying to go against a lot of this nonsense. And it's incredible to think
that Deborah Burks can be celebrated by people in the pop media as some sort
of heroine when she was just deceiving people all along. And as you mentioned,
you know, Scott Atlas's book is terrific on that front. And I
didn't know that, you know, back in the era of the AIDS,
you know, not I won't say scare, but the initial days of AIDS,
when she had found out that there was a tainted blood supply. I
think I read this in Anthony Fauci's book, but I might have read it
elsewhere where. She was going to have to go through a C section,
and she was aware of the tainted blood supply, and she was She was
actually cited as having yelled out as they went into the emergency area for the
surgery she said, don't don't give me a blood blood Transfuseence, she was
aware of it, and she didn't tell anybody else back, you know,
before she joined up with the Trump campaign, the Trump team. It's it's
amazing to see this, Glenn and I think unfortunately, so many people turned
to these central authorities and they think they have this power. How was it
for you, as as you say, you know, you tried to stand
up against the masking and so on, but the composition of the Tennessee government
really made it difficult, right, Yeah. I think a lot of people
were shocked to see what was in our state laws concerning emergencies. Now,
it's true around the country. Here in Tennessee. Governor Billie is a great
guy, he's a solid person. But I think we were all pretty pretty
stunned to rea that under the emergency powers that he had been granted in legislation
concerning emergencies and health care crises, that he could literally act as a dictator
through his Department of Health. Now, he did not do many of the
things that other governors did, such as Creton, Gretten, Gretchen, Whitmer
and Cuomo and Newsome, thank goodness, but if it been someone else than
Bill Lee sitting there, we had had a real problem. And you know,
that's I think something that everyone needs to realize is, you know,
these emergency power acts, they really need to be to be looked at and
discussed. Judge Depolitano would talk about how the whole thing was unconstitutional what was
being done at the state level. Because the Constitution guarantees a republican form of
government to the states, which means you have separation of powers, which means
you have a legislature and an executive. What happened during COVID was the executive
became a legislator as well through executive orders. So they're just you know,
they're just throwing out these executive orders. In many cases, the legislature was
not meeting talking about those. It was just edicts coming down from literally the
little kings and petty tyrants around the country. So it really didn't make a
big difference where you lived, because so much of it depended on whether you're
a governor would act in those ways. But nevertheless, as free people,
we shouldn't have to worry about that. No one shouldn't ever be able to
have those powers. And you know, I've I've brought this up about numerous
times. You know, my position on the Constitution. I would prefer it
if the politicians who promised they're going to operate that way, it's always over
over my left shoulder. I would prefer that the politicians who make their promises
actually abide by it, and within it the Constitution has the contract clause in
there. So this model state health emergency legislation that was promulgated from JOHNS.
Hopkins in the mid or after the two thousand and one anthrax scare and so
on, And we saw this in New Hampshire when John Lynch was governor.
I was on the radio in Manchester trying to warn people about this. Completely
completely abrogates that portion. It's an utter usurpation of the contract clause. Because
if I have a contract with my employer or my employees, or someone who's
going to come do work on my house, and all of a sudden somebody
says you've got to stand six six feet apart, you have to eat outside,
your employees have to wear a mask. Well, that's a breach of
the contract we already have and no state legislature it's prohibited by the Constitution.
No state legislature can stop the fulfillment of a privately agreed to contract. I
didn't know someone also violation sorry garbage, the business shutdowns or violation of the
Fifth Amendment as well, because you're depriving people of their liberty and their property
without making a restitution or or fair market for that. So you know,
when you look at the Constitution, it does allow for things like intimate domain,
but you have to compensate the taking, and in this case, it
was just everybody's out of business. Your business is ruined. Oh well,
and then then of course they did make the wonderful choice of printing trillions of
dollars in the most expensive check that any of miss got was the thirteen hundred
dollars in the federal government. But nevertheless, you know, they were depriving
people of their liberty through on constitutional takings as well as they'll stay at home
orders our shelter in place, clear violation of the Fourth Amendment, because the
police can't just stop you because you're driving down the road or because you're walking
down the street. They have to have probable cause. Yeah. Well,
in fact, that's supposed to get a warrant from a judge who determines that
probable cause. And in this case, that's what happened. That's where there's
an implied right to travel freely in the Fourth Amendment, that's where we derived
that from. And that was just stepped all over you know, all of
a sudden you had you couldn't leave your home. And I'm thinking, wow,
America sure has changed over the true so true. And then and then
of course you've got the incentivization coming from the federal government handing out all the
money, which I think, in in macrocosm and in macroscope of view,
really sheds light on the apparatus that has been constructed over decades of political machinations
of the government promising governors or mayors money for your highways or this if you
can form to Title nine, if you conform to this, you'll get your
Medicare money, you'll get your Medicaid money, you'll get your education money.
So they've constructed this this very parasitic relationship between the central government, which of
course is now thirty five trillion dollars in debt and is accruing another trillion every
hundred days, and u the states, which themselves often can't balance their own
budgets and so they rely on those other people. And the whole time,
not only is the value of the monetary system being depreciated with every dollar that
they're spewing out there, but the actual memories of what the Constitution says are
being eroded by years and years of normalcy bias. I think I agree with
you. I was speaking with the United States congressman, pretty good guy,
uh, and he pointed out that Constitution. You know, it's a flawed
document, but it's the best thing that we have. It's best thing,
frankly it's ever been created. But one of those flaws is that the federal
government shod never been allowed to dole money out to the states. Yeah,
so what happens is they just bribe the states essentially with their citizens own money
any case, and the future future progenies new money and money and and their
earnings their toil, you know. And and you know, Glenn, you
and I are and talk about economics, and you know, this is one
of the things I try to mention to people that when I go into class
and I ask the students to look at the early the the the the fundamental
machines, you know, the simple machines, the lever, the wheel,
the inclined plane. And I say, you know, all those things human
beings. They didn't sit down at tables and say I'm going to invent the
inclined plane. You know, the cavemen used an angle so that they wouldn't
need two people to lift something. One guy could push something up a ramp
over distance. You're decreasing the amount of effort per unit, but you're increasing
the number of units, so it makes it easier. Now you freed one
person, you've become more efficient. That's what we're all trying to do.
But the whole time they're putting out this money they're borrowing, saying that it's
helping us, it's actually destroying our inclined planes, and they're making us work
harder for the things that we want. It's absolutely it's crazy. It's really
sad. You look at this, this key bridge situation. There's a very
in our face example of a number of constitutional errors and economic errors and moral
errors that these people are making. Yes, it might be important for the
infrastructure, Yes it might be important for this, or that it's in Maryland.
I don't live in Maryland. And they can try to make an argument
for me to say, well, we're doing what's right for you because we've
got to fix that so you can get sugar and your prices won't be so
high. I'm sorry, but if you're going to open up that Pandora's box,
then the government can do anything to facilitate ease for me to get anything.
You can't do that morally and constitutionally. As I mentioned at the start
of the show, they can only have control over three forms of land,
military garrisons, Washington, d C. And territories. I don't see interstate
highways as military garrisons. They're not supposed to exist, but they have been
existing for decades. So I think there are a lot of lessons to be
learned here, and especially from what you saw at diver Berk's personality person to
person. You saw the face of it, and you know, you weather
the storm one and it's great to see that you're still down there doing what's
right. It's very difficult, i'm sure, for you to have gone through
all those things and seeing the problems that some of the kids experienced because of
this, but you stood tall and I appreciate that very much. Oh,
thank you, guard. I appreciate the kind words. And I think my
one message is that folks shouldn't forget about what happened during COVID, and it
seems like we're all so desperate to move on that we are, and the
people that caused these enormous problems, in many cases killing folks not deliberately,
but through their policies, you know, and even realizing that the most logical
explanation for how this thing, this coronavirus, came to be in the first
place was gain a function experiments that the US was helping to fund in another
country. We should never forget those things, and the people that caused this
need to be held accountable because this is one of the worst political and economic
disasters in American history. Wow, well, said Glenn. I'm delighted to
have you as a friend. Friend. It's great to have you here,
and I know you got to go. You got to do business down there.
I'll look for you on Twitter. How come people follow you on Twitter?
Glenn? My Twitter handle or x I guess now that I still call
Twitter it's at Glenn with two ends. Jacob's TN, so it's g l
e n N jc OBSTN. That's also same on Instagram. And then they
can also follow me on two places on Facebook, either the Knox County Mary
Glenn Jacobs page or Jacobs from mayor. Okay, all right, sounds good.
Well I will talk to you again off the airic Glenn I hope you
have a great day down there. Like I said, I might be seeing
you looking around in Tennessee and it'd be great to see you again after seeing
you last week. I'm like, oh, I got to see him again
as as possible. And Glenn, before we go, I'll leave you with
this as you sign off. I know you've got to fly, but we'll
leave with this. We'll let you go and we'll let the audience experience the
wonderful Deborah books. As she admitted something and didn't seem to realize she was
admitting it. Thanks, Glenn, We'll talk to you soon. Thanks,
take care y all right, she doesn't make any sense all that. These
books are under five books at brofbooks dot Com. Thank fundre Doctor Pauci or
the Universe. So can you talk about your concerns about deaths being misreported by
coronavirus because of their testing standards for how their characterists. So, I think
in this country we've taken a very liberal approach to mortality, and I think
the reporting here has been pretty straightforward over the last five to six weeks.
Prior to that, when there wasn't testing in January and February. That's a
very different situation and unknown. There are other countries that if you had a
pre existing condition and let's say the virus called to you to go to the
ICU and then have a heart or kidney problem, some countries are recording that
as a heart issue or a kidney issue and not a COVID nineteen death.
Right now, we're still recording it, and we'll I mean, the great
thing about having forms that come in and a form that has the ability to
market as COVID nineteen infection, the intent is right now that those if someone
dies with COVID nineteen, we are counting that as a COVID nineteen death.
Can you be sure? I mean you hear from corners that that's not necessarily
the case? Or are you sure? How can you be confident about that?
And is there and you concern that excuse the day? Yeah, is
there any concern? Perhaps there should have been some concern, right, yes,
And don't forget hospitals got paid more if patients were listed as COVID nineteen.
And kudos to USA Today for doing the fact check back in twenty twenty
April twenty twenty, and of course I'd love to get your comments. Let's
set up hop over to Rumble and welcome everyone to the David Knight Show on
Gardner Goldsmith. You might know my work from MRCTV, and I appreciate you
finding my work online. If you want to follow me, it's at guard
Goldsmith my liberty conspiracy work. I contractually I don't advertise my liberty conspiracy work
for the MRCTV, the Media Research Center. People want to do work for
them, but they do let me mention my Twitter handle, the x handle.
So that's at guard Goldsmith and boy, it's just great to be filling
in for David again. Prayers for David that everything goes okay for him as
he goes through some medical tests today. And over at a Rumble, I
saw a very key point here from uh calf B. I think it is
great education in points on the Constitution, but we are dealing with Marxists intentionally
refusing to recognize it. Absolutely absolutely right. It's very clear, you know,
and unfortunately, I think a lot of people get caught up in they
hear that totemic term constitution and so on and so forth, but they don't
seem to read it. They just seem to take it as well. That's
a reassurance that they're operating according to this wonderful thing that evokes memories of patriotism
and things like that July fourth and the Declaration of Independence and so on and
so forth. They don't even know the definition of rights anymore. You know,
kids are told by pop media people that people have a right to the
fruits of someone else's labor. And I brought this point up before. You
know, one of the greatest examples that you can give to somebody, or
at least you know, in my opinion, I think an easy way to
show that people don't have positive rights to things. And by positive I don't
mean good, I mean positive by politicians positive positivism. They have negative rights.
They have a right to be left alone, and of course because you
are granted these rights by God. Now, one of the things that is
interesting is you get people saying, well, there's got to be a right
to education. So this is one of the examples that I bring up to
people. I'll say, well, look, the argument there is because the
child is vulnerable and can't necessarily educate him or herself, they make the leap
to therefore government's got to do it. First of all, that's ahistorical from
the United States history, as Charlotte Izzabid has pointed out, as John Taylor
Taylor Gotdo has pointed out, and as the person who influenced both of them,
Sam Blumenfeld, my dad's friend and became my friend. Sam Blumenfeld pointed
out in his book Is Public Education Necessary, and the follow up to it
called Neea Trojan Horse of American Education. You can look him up on YouTube
Sam Blumenfeld b l U me E n F E l D and or just
look up Samuel Blumenfeld on education. He was also very very good exposing the
look say method of reading, the non phonetic teaching of reading, where they
just give kids a word rather than breaking it down to phonemes. And the
reason they're called phonetics is because the Phoenicians developed the alphabet. So every sound
has a symbol. It's a sound symbol system. So Sam pointed out that.
Of course, as you know, when Alexei Detakvil came over in the
early eighteen hundreds, he was going to write a book about the prison system
in the United States, the penal system. He was so impressed by the
voluntary aid that people gave to each other the low level of indigence in the
United States and the high level of literacy. That he wrote a completely different
book and he talked about the civic organizations and so on. Another very good
follow up to Democracy in America, if you want to get it, is
called The Tragedy of American Compassion by Marvin Alaski came out probably around nineteen ninety
or so, maybe ninety one. It's very good, and he goes through
the civic organizations, how they operated in New York on four square block areas
and the government was not involved. It wasn't until Horace Greeley, who actually
came from New Hampshire, from my town actually Horace Greeley, who was a
newspaper editor, started to push for more welfare programs that it really started up
as far as welfare stuff education. They started to push this in Harvard very
early on in Boston as slowly but surely Unitarians started to get involved in Harvard,
and originally it was a Protestant institution and then they know it was Catholic,
and then they switched over to Unitarianism. And then later I think I
got this right. Yeah. Then later they started to push for government and
run education in Boston as a way to inculcate children to become good citizens rather
than actually getting educated and understanding the Bible and things like that. And there
was a study done by Charles Bullfinch, who was an architect in Boston.
You can go to Bullfinch Place in Boston. He was actually in favor.
In eighteen nineteen, I think or so, they did this study and he
was in favor of government getting involved with education. They did a survey in
Boston. They found that ninety six or so ninety five percent of the children
through sixth through seventh grade, and of course the education was much better back
then were educated privately in their churches at home, and people didn't want it,
so they weren't able to pass these until the late eighteen hundreds. And
it became particularly noticeable as a lot of Catholics came in from Ireland, and
the Protestants did not want the Catholics to have their kids inculcated in their churches.
They wanted them inculcated under the state. So very interesting stuff there.
And in fact, I'm going to bring up something about the Donald Trump Bible
that I've made a note about last night. On Liberty Conspiracy and you can
watch Liberty Conspiracy every Monday through Friday. You can stream it on Rumble,
on Rockfin and on my Twitter feed x feed at guard Goldsmith six pm Eastern
Time, Monday through Friday. I try to make it a good news resource
where we can split apart some of these news stories and derive intellectual ammunition to
apply to instances similar to these stories in the future and to hand off to
new generations lessons about liberty, economics, philosophy, the Constitution, and being
a good neighbor. Right, So the Donald Trump Bible thing. In fact,
let's just go right over to that while we're discussing it right now.
You probably saw this information on David's show, and I want to make sure
that I mentioned this because there's one facet that I brought up on the show
last night, and I said, you know, I want to make sure
that I tell this to David's audience. Of course, you get the Donald
Trump Bible and he's working with this country singer who did you know, God
Bless the USA. It's selling for sixty dollars. I don't think it's gold
plated like the shoes, but you know it's not exactly the kind of thing
that you need to spend sixty dollars on. There are great online versions of
this. Go to a Blue Letter Bible. They're excellent. They have all
the different versions on there. They have a Bible quote of the day every
day, and of course you can see that Donald Trump said happy Holyly week.
This is the man who refused to mention which portion of the Bible was
his favorite to a reporter years ago. David played that video. It was
fantastic to see that reminder. I think Donald Trump is not very familiar with
the Bible, but I don't want to be too judgmental, but clearly Donald
Trump is not familiar with the US constitutions for darnshore, and clearly he's not
familiar with the golden rule of leaving one's neighbor alone. He seems to give
that good lip service, but when it comes to things like allowing lockdowns,
not stopping the lockdowns, sitting on one third of Syria without any declared war,
that sort of thing. Drone strikes, extra judicial murder of people,
which of course was almost down a parallel to Barack Obama and John Brennan.
Well, not good, not good at all. One of the things I
want to bring up about this though, is you see Donald Trump with his
wonderful Bible, is that not only is it going for sixty dollars, and
of course he's trying to raise his money, but he has the Pledge of
Allegiance inside that. Well. The Pledge of Allegiance was written by a name
named Francis Bellamy. And this is the man who is a socialist, as
you can see on the screen from Fortune magazine, or you can go to
the World Socialist site if you want to get more info and laugh about it
in a sort of tragic way, how a socialist ended up writing the Pledge
of Allegiance. Now, most people are familiar with this, right, most
people know about this. But one of the things that I think is really
important is when I don't. I stopped doing the Pledge of allegiance many many
years ago, right, And I find it interesting that people look at it
almost as if it's a social pressure thing, like how dare you you didn't
give the pledge? Like, no, I don't pledge an allegiance to a
flag. I don't pledge an allegiance to a nation state that is imposing itself
on other people. I pledge servitude and submission to God. That's what I
pledge. So I don't need Donald Trump putting the pledge of allegiance in a
Bible. It, I think is indicative of a lot, and it shows
why we ought to be very careful or I think I ought to be very
careful of any politician when they're swearing an oath to the Constitution, because they
don't even understand where our rights come from. To leave a preposition dangling,
it's pretty shocking to think about that. Amazing, And of course I think
one of the things that we can see here is we talk about a reminder
about the hospitals getting corrupted. They've been manipulated and corrupted for years or various
power sources. I hope that kids can guard themselves against the corruption of the
state coming in. I pledge allegiance to the flag and all the manna that
they will give to us. Well, I mentioned a while ago that I
found this squatter's issue to be perhaps pertinent, and so I want to give
you some information about a couple things. First is the economy, and then
we're going to go into how bad the economy is for some people. And
I want to talk first about the squatters issue, because I think this pertains
to government claiming that they have a right to control our lives. Here's the
story out of Florida. This is a positive for many people, major win
for property owners, as bill immediately evicting squatters passes unanimously. This just happened
yesterday in Florida. So there you'll see. This is one of these little
slideshow things. The new bill allows law enforcement to remove squatters from a property
without and authorized lease from the rightful owner. Well, sometimes these people will
go and give money to someone claiming that they have a lease and it's not
even from the original owner. It's ridiculous. This change in Florida to the
way that evictions used to be handled streamlines the entire process for landlords who previously
were forced to maneuver through the often difficult and expensive legal process to reclaim ownership
of their properties. Okay, Now, One of the things that I do
want to bring up, however, though, is functionally people might look at
this and say, Okay, the government is doing something here to try to
fix this problem about landowners and so on. But as a voluntarist, I
have to mention the only way that the government can exist is by the government
taking money from people. So even the law enforcement agency of government is predicated
on government telling people, you've got to pay for it. Now, philosophically,
when I'm in a philosophy class and I'm teaching political philosophy to students,
i will show them John Locke and his Second Treatise of Government, which was
written in sixteen seventy, actually didn't have his name on it when it was
first written because the Scottish Rebellion was really hot and the papal plot stuff was
going on between the Catholics and the Protestants, so there was a big question
as to whether or not the next king will be Catholic or Protestant. There
was Charles, there was James, and then of course he had William of
Orange come in later later after that with the Protestant Revolution, so no Reformation.
So what's interesting about that is John Locke is often called many interesting things.
Locke is often called a natural rights theorist, and most of the Constitution,
the Declaration of Independence are they're based on the philosophy of John Locke,
which was derived and then expanded upon from works from Thomas Aquinas and going back
to Aristotle. Okay, so if you look at and even Socrates, So
we'll go back to Socrates real quick. If you look at the Creto,
the book of Plato claiming that this is what Socrates experienced and said when Socrates
was arrested by the authorities, and they said, you are not conforming with
the polytheist religion that we have, and you are stirring up trouble with your
parapatetic teachings. So you can either We're going to give you the false choice,
the Hegelian dialectic of you can either have us kill you or you can
drink hemlock. So they sentenced him to death. Right, you can be
searched, or you can be scanned at the airport. Right, false choices.
Okay, So they do this, and then he's waiting, he's in
prison. His friend Credo comes in and he says, look, Socrates,
you have said in the past essentially lexmala, lexmala, non malaw. Bad
law is no law, right, So why don't you just leave? And
so Socrates said, no, I can't do that. Yes, I agree
that bad law. You can resist bad law. But Socrates said, the
state is like a parent. Now Remember, these were smaller city states,
so it wasn't exactly like the hegemonic, giant state system that we have here
of nation states that started to grow in the late eighteen hundreds mid eighteen hundreds
happened in Italy, as David Knight is brought up around the same time as
the Civil War. Here where the smaller city states and fiefdoms and so on
that you know had existed in the Middle Ages. The remnants of those formed
up into the nation state of Italy. Prior to that they were all separate
city states. But it's interesting because he said, it's like a parent.
It provides us with safety and security and so on and so forth. So
he didn't dig down either, because the only way the state can exist is
by making a claim on you. And then the rules that they offer people
is it's for your protection, which is exactly where Thomas Aquinas went. He
said, legitimate state is for your protection and so on and so forth.
You have a right to resist, but not to to not comply with peaceful
non compliance, but not to revolt. And that was essentially what Socrates said,
I cannot comply to their their laws, but if I get in trouble,
I have to comply with the punishment, and in this case it's death,
which of course is illogical because and Credo should have said this. But
of course they offer straw straw man arguments. Inside most of Plato's Plato's writings
about political philosophy, it's almost always you've got a really weak person arguing with
Socrates, you know. So Socrates just rolls over them like a steamroller.
But you know, anybody with any acumen would have said, well, wait
a minute, you're already saying that you can resist these statutes, these these
laws of these people that they're promulgating. Well, now they've just promulgated another
one for you to die, so why don't resist that. But they didn't
draw out, they didn't bring it to the root, you know, they
didn't get radical and get to the radius of it, to the radii of
it. So Thomas Aquinas did the same sort of thing. John Locke actually
brought it one step further. He said that the state is there to provide
protection for your natural rights. If it starts to trample those natural rights,
you have a right now, not just to peacefully not comply, but you
have a right to rebellion. To protect your natural rights, but inherent and
wound into Locke's theory that people claim as a natural rights support pillar, sort
of like the bridge down There is actually what's called the social contract theory.
So Socrates was a social contract theorist, and Thomas Aquinas was, and probably
the most famous exponent of that was the writer of Leviathan Hobbes, where he
said you have to have a giant city state and you can't question it.
Rousseau was the same sort of person. It was social contract theory, which
is again a canard, because you can only have a contract in real society.
Society is apart from the state. Society is the set of traditions and
obligations that we come up with with each other through peaceful interaction. That's society.
The state always is parasitic off of society, always draws from society.
It's the only way it can exist. If somebody voluntarily gives money to something,
then the thing that's receiving it is actually getting something, either through charity
or through a business agreement. It's not the state. The state, by
definition axiomatically applies itself to people who don't want to be included. That's how
it becomes a state, whether it's a monarchy or an empire or any other
thing, there's a form of tyranny in there somewhere rule the majority so called
democracy that they tell us again tyrannical. It's, as people have often said,
and James Bovart most recently recoined, it's two wolves and a sheep arguing
over what's going to be for dinner. Right. So Locke arrantly said that
people have natural rights. They come out of the so called state of nature
where people could pray on each other. He just assumes that without a state,
people won't come up with their own rules, which is what we do
all the time in society. Right. That's where the British common law comes
from. From societal iterations, interactions. That's where the Irish Brehon law system
comes from. The Brehon law system was not a taxing system. They had
societal agreements. That's what the tribes did in Exodus before they asked for a
king. They had the families, the elders would be the adjudicators, and
they had intertribe relationships without that political polis rule. John Locke actually is not
a natural rights theorist. He actually gives an excuse for the creation of the
polis, and that is inexcusable Philosophically, he says, out of the state
of nature, every man has rights. Out of the state of nature,
which he thinks is going to be chaotic. He doesn't think people can come
up with their own rules and judgments and things like that. He says,
men form a government to protect their rights. So the first logical question is,
well, if the state of nature is so chaotic and they come up
can't come up with their own rules for interaction, how can they then somehow
become non chaotic and smooth and come up with the ideas for the state.
If they can't come up with ideas that are voluntary, then how can they
voluntarily come to an agreement about the state. You're negating your own argument.
It's a qed, right, But I mean it's the whole thing is completely
fallacious, right. I used to be a big fan of John Lockham,
and when you really break it down, even to give him a sense of
kindness, he was wrong. He was one hundred percent wrong. So then
you say, okay, we grant that God gives us rights. So then
locks says, men come together to form a government, assuming that it's all
men. But if it's all men, then it's not a state because it's
a voluntary interaction. You're right back to the state of nature. Right.
Then he says, of course, it's for their protection. And then he
says, no man should be deprived of the fruits of his labor. Literally,
I'm quoting from the Second Treatise of Government. No man should be deprived
of the fruits of his labor without his consent. And then in the next
sentence he says, and by his consent, I mean the consent of the
majority. It's like, oh no, oh, I said to many people
in class, like he needed a good editor, somebody to talk to,
like John, hold it, wait, stop, time out, time out?
Where's the whistle? Get a twenty second time out? We've got to
reconvene the team here. You know, we're gonna get Larry Bird to show
throw a three pointer. Oh just really bad, not good. Right.
But they have accepted this concept, and that is at the root of the
problems here in the United States, because they accept the fallacy that the government
has a legitimate claim over you. You can have governance without government, without
the state, I should say, without the police. Because the police imposes
itself on people. So the very nature of the police is that it can
demand your property for your protection, right. And the more it does this,
the more things it will claim are for your protection. Whether it's for
a bridge, whether it's for COVID nineteen, whatever it might be. They'll
say it's for your protection. We need your money. Now, this property
thing. To get back to the squatters thing, the nugget that I would
just like to suggest to people, and it doesn't mean that people, you
know, I'm trying to exhort people to oppose this in Florida, Okay,
I'm just saying that there's a lesson here that you know. However far people
want to go towards recognizing the validity of the anarchist argument, the voluntarist argument.
Philosophically, it's irrefutable, Okay, it's just again, it's axiomatic.
You can't get around this truth. Okay. Government is imposed by force,
that's what it is. It's a gang of thieves and they give you these
arguments. Right. But one of the things I would like to remind people
about this squatter story out of Florida is it looks like it's a positive for
people right. And last night on my show, I won't show the whole
thing, but I showed a terrific five minute video from John Stossel. And
you know, I agree with Stossel about ninety five percent of the time.
Sometimes I disagree with him, but you know, very very good for a
lot of pro liberty things. And he's been around for a long time.
I met him really nice guy, really nice guy, and so you got
to say it twice. But the thing about this is that for any action
where people want their so called property protected by the police, it means that
the police, the state is going to be threatening somebody else's price. So
as good as this seems to be consequentially morally, it still relies on the
state policing. Canard of it exists to protect you? How much does a
taxpayer who pays ten times more than the other person does he get ten times
more policing? And obviously we know that police, when seconds count, are
just minutes away. Right, So a lot of this practically doesn't work,
and the person on hand should be figuring these things out. But also the
moral the immoral imposition of an assumption. I can't make that assumption. That's
why I've turned away from all forms of the state. I don't vote for
people to go into offices. I admire people if they're trying to do the
right thing and reduce the size of government. But I still have some qualms.
Sometimes. You know, Thomas Massey Glenn doing great work, right,
how does it work? Will they? Would I feel more comfortable if,
you know, say, Donald Trump wasn't taking a salary. I thought that
was good. You know, I disagreed with so many things that I thought
were just deplorable, immoral, terrible, unconstitutional. Right, So when I
look at stories, I look at the constitution, I look at constitutions of
states and the federal government, and I say, Okay, what can I
pull from this? And then I say, how does it reflect on my
philosophy? How does it reflect on my morals that I won't tell my neighbor
that you have to pay for my protection? Right? So this assumption that
the police force is the foundation, the one thing that the state should be
providing policing for your protection, for your property and your rights so called,
well, that's got a tautology mixed into it. It's a QD because it
breaches your rights in order to provide the so called protection, and here it
breaches someone else's rights now to have the police force and the court system manage
this battle against squatters. And people can say, yeah, but the other
person who's being taxed, who might not be the only or the property now,
might be the owner in the future. I can't make that assumption for
that person. I can't say, yeah, I know you'd rather hold onto
your money and give it to your mother who has cancer or something like that.
But I know that maybe down the line you might have a squad problem
too. So this is for your good. I'm saying it is again,
can't do it. It's not right. It's just not right. So this
is a very good story, but I think it's a problem when we look
at it philosophically. Now, how that can be resolved in a non governmental
way again, if you want to look at it historically, Whether people think
it's practicable now, I don't know, But look at Brehan Law. Kevin
Flanagan does great, great work on the Brehon Law channel on YouTube, going
back to ancient Ireland before the Brits invaded around seven hundred AD. Excellent stuff
and Viking age Iceland with the Goddard System. Absolutely stellar information from people like
David Friedman, Milton Friedman's son, awesome, awesome stuff, and so just
check that out if you get an opportunity. A lot of really good people
like Murray Rothbard, the economists have written about this, and of course one
of the things when you get down to the practical side of it is valuation
that goes towards economics. And I think tomorrow Jacob Hornberger will be joining us
and he has a lot of great things to talk about from Future Freedom Foundation.
That'll be on David Show on this show tomorrow, not on my show
on six o'clock show for Liberty Conspiracy, but tomorrow at nine o'clock between nine
and noon, probably around ten am or so. I think we'll see.
But one of the other things about this is that unless you allow people to
choose where they want to spend their money, you can't tell what people value.
Right, So I often say when they talk about the border, first
of all, I've mentioned this on David Show before, so I'll be very
brief about it. But no, there is nothing in the US Constitution that
says anything about immigration. It says something about naturalization. It was an eighteen
seventy five Supreme Court ruling in this case called Chin Lung v. Freeman out
of a California statute that was going to block Chinese immigrants, that it went
to the Supreme Court, and the Supreme Court just invented it. Like Roe
v. Wade. Oh, it's a federal purview. It's not. State
of Texas has an immigration bureau in its state constitution that they accepted in eighteen
sixty nine. Very clearly, it's not a federal purview. And this is
where everybody battles. So there are two things that happen when you collectivize things.
First, you negate the ability of the individual to express his valuation in
an economic way, so we have the moral tie to it. Then we've
got the economic tie to it. The economics and the morals really are the
same. It's the golden rule. So if you don't allow your neighbor to
decide how he or she wants to spend his or her money, and you
say, I think that this is important to police against squatters, or to
police the border, or whatever it is, it's the same thing as for
any other product or service. You don't know how much of it that person
wanted. You don't know whether those resources are being spent the way that person
wanted the resources spent, and therefore you can't apply a proper price system here.
So you can't apply a price to that service or unit. You're either
going to get too much or too little of it. And of course then
you start mixing politics in and it gets a complete mess. That people who
can gain the system will get a lot more of it, right, they'll
get the gravy. Right. So it's the same thing with the border,
right, the so called border. It's multiple borders right in Texas and Nevada
and Mexico, California and even Florida. Really, so if you look at
all those things, you say to yourself, there literally is no logical way
that anyone can say that a political border imposed by politicians actually is a real
border, because the taxpayers are being forced to pay for it, they can't
express their preference, and the politicians aren't using their money. Just like when
they say America is being charitable towards Alzheimer's or cancer or whatever that America cares.
You know that canard, that fallacious nonsense, Well again it's all false.
You literally cannot make a tie between the spending of the money and any
particular individual having a choice and only through choice to do something. These are
all just standard laws of practice of you know, anybody who's dealing with logic
and the definition of words. But unfortunately people get so sentimentally tied to these
things that they think, well, this is a this is a big story.
This squatting thing is a big one. Right. Well, I want
to turn to something on Twitter slash x that I think you might find valuable.
This is from my Liberty Conspiracy show from last week. I made a
little ten minute presentation about this. It's eleven minutes and I think you might
might find this interesting. It's about the ultimate squatter. So let me show
this to you and see if you might find this interesting. And here we
go. Last month, the homeowner had a tense standoff with the reported squatters
after she had met with a news crew for an interview outside the home to
discuss the crime. One of the reported squatters appeared outside during the interview and
left the homes front door open, and Dellero and the news crew entered the
house, where they found one of the alleged squatters asleep and some of Andellero's
personal belongings still in the house. You probably have seen it. This is
proving everything I said. This is my furniture, these are my curtains,
Andealo said on camera to ABC seven as she entered the home, who are
you, sir? Get out of my house. She was seen telling a
sleeping man in one of the rooms of the house. The men reportedly called
nine to one one and as you saw and on ander Laro as she called
a locksmith to come over and change the locks, and of course the cops
took her away. Yeah, so there you go. Got to do that.
Got to make sure even though she showed them that she had the deed
to the place. It's amazing, just amazing. She showed them proof of
ownership. They wouldn't listen to her, and they took her away and they
left the squatters there. Now, if anybody's mind is going to as I
mentioned this whole immigration thing, we're going to hit on that Texas issue,
that is the one that's actually breaking constantly over the past couple days. It's
permutating give us some interesting information on that. We'll get the first blush flash
information. Then we'll dig down a little deeper into this thing. But in
addition to that, one of the things I want to mention, this sort
of dig down on the next levels on this and for anticipate with you,
is this, you've got public places now that people thought were designed and that
they had raised the money to create for a particular purpose, like the school
in New York where they took the kids out of the school to bring in
the emergency illegal alien migrant whatever, the people who are getting subsidized by the
federal government to come here, and the federal government is now paying for them
to have thousand dollars debit cards, ten thousand dollar debit cards in New York.
So, like I said, just pretend you have a foreign language,
go over there and perhaps you too can get the ten thousand dollars debit card.
And then they moved these people during the storm a few weeks ago,
a couple months ago now into a school in Brooklyn, and a woman was
not too happy about that. In Boston, they were housing them at Logan
Airport. You know, because national security tsa very important to make sure that
you know, people have to show all their IDs got to be biometric.
Oh wait, I'm sorry, no, if you pretend you're from a foreign
country and don't have any ID. Then you'll get free food, free shelter,
free legal, free medical from the state of Massachusetts. And also,
since the state of Massachusetts has requested money from one hundred majorcas, then you'll
get it from other taxpayers from other states because the governor of Massachusetts, Mara
Heally, loves you so much that she wants to make sure that you will
pay, and other people from oh, I don't know, Hawaii will pay.
Yeah, that sort of thing. So it's all great, it's all
collectivism. And of course, since collectivism never actually operates, because it doesn't
actually allow people to determine what they find valuable and where they want to spend
their money, to reveal their preferences so the market can cater to those things,
they just subsidize what they want. Politically, of course, well,
since that happens and it always fails, it has to keep expanding. So
welcome Hawaii to Massachuset. It's glad you could be part of Logan Airport.
So since that time, of course people are saying, isn't that almost Maybe
they're not saying it, but I'm pretending they're saying it. Isn't that almost
like a form of public squatting. How do we handle that? You're literally
moving homeless people into Logan Airport, and you're inviting your paying you're buying homeless
people from outside the United States. Now again, I'm a libertarian anarchist,
I'm a voluntarist. As I've stated before, Philosophically and logically, a politically
determined barrier is not a determined barrier. It's an imposed wall or a line
in the sand that they have drawn politically that actually is impossible to say actually
shows that anybody wants that barrier there, because the politicians aren't spending their own
money on it, and the people who are forced to pay for it,
they might all have different opinions, and of course they're going to take private
property to put it up there. The other part of it is the part
I'm going to get into in more detail in a little while on the immigration
front, which is of course that the word immigration doesn't appear in the US
Constitution. So we'll go into that and describe how that fact has brought about
a massive, massive on the ground battle in Texas, something that I could
kind of figure was going to be coming when I gave lectures on how it's
not a federal purview, it's a state purview. I could see this conflict
between the Southern states and the Feds. You know, members of Southern legislatures,
residents, they're getting upset because the Feds weren't handling it right. And
then finally maybe thinking that they might finally recognize what's actually written in the Constitution
and what the courts have done over the years to usurp that and blur the
lines on things to put it into federal hands. The more dissatisfied people became
on the state level, the more I started to think there's a chance that
people might actually start to recognize the argument that I've been putting forward for I
don't know, like ten years or more. So we'll get into the details
on that a little bit more. But on the squatting issue, I think
this issue in Queens does open up this question of people of hey, am
I not being forced to pay for somebody else to be housed somewhere? Now?
Isn't that sort of like the woman who owns the property in Queens and
now her property and she's paying taxes on it, She paid the upkeep,
she paid for the place. She's got the mortgage on the place, she's
paying for it. Somebody else's living there on her dime. Isn't that what
they're doing in Logan Airport? Isn't that what they're doing all over the place,
whether it's a ten thousand dollars debit card in New York or it's people
getting free housing in Logan Airport. And the amazing thing that Howie Carr,
the radio host, brought up, and he's on at three o'clock in the
afternoons on like a one hundred and fifty stations, but based around Boston.
How he's been a long term journalist in the Boston area, and he noted,
you know, they opened up this children's recreation center that of course they
took tax money to build. And they said, oh, this is going
to be good for kids in the way they'll be able to you know,
play basketball and do running inside and so on and so forth, to be
a good place for kids to come. That was their argument. Of course,
as an anarchist, I say, how can you morally justify telling somebody,
even if it sounds good, that you're going to forcibly make him pay
for it. If you think it's a good idea. Open up a charitable
organization, try to start it that way, or start a business and see
if you can make a go of it. Get advertised to say we want
to start this thing for kids. They don't do that because they put out
the artifice, of course, that it's for the vulnerable kids, the underprivileged
kids. And yet kids, you like kids. Who doesn't like kids,
Well, a lot of people don't like kids, evidently the way they treat
future generations in so many ways, not only making them dead slaves, but
who doesn't feel some sort of affection for thinking, Okay, let's do something
good for kids, right, But that's not doing good for kids. You
can't do good for the kids without doing wrong against somebody else when you're doing
it through the pol and that's just axiomatic. You can't escape it. Right.
So they moved the original batch of people from Logan into this place in
Roxbury, a very downtrodden area of Boston near South East and stuff like that.
And of course, since I said they moved the first batch, they've
now they said that they were doing it to clear people out of Logan Airport,
clean things up at Logan. No, they just replaced him with more
that they've shipped in thanks to Alejandro Majorcas and Maura Healy. Right, could
you say her name the way you say Alahan Rome orcus is name, Maurahity,
I guess it is not quite the same. So those things being stated,
I think there is that argument about squatting, but I think there's a
greater argument about squatting. Okay, this just goes towards the complete utter lack
of respect for private property. Now, since I didn't get to do the
show last night, I didn't get to talk about this issue. So I
had a few things saved up, a few things reserved that I want to
express to you. Get your feedback on these in the next break here.
And then I obviously know that David Knight yesterday spoke about this and did a
fantastic job, so well researched. So Aerad just terrific, you know,
very very honest about what he says and knowledgeable. Well. He had on
his Twitter slash x feed about twenty four hours ago that he posted this squatter
stealing homes when laws don't matter, neither do deeds. It's not only New
York. Just like illegal immigration, government won't do anything about people who trespass
or take over your home. And you'll see here over on his Twitter slash
x hes the zero hedge version of this story. There's the owner of the
property there and raise that up a little bit. And he started off did
a great job covering this. One of the things that I brought up is
this, And this is sort of the final point I want to make.
Now, if you're watching, you probably already saw a glimpse of it.
But if you're listening in audio, this is what I wrote said And it's
not a response to David. It's just a general statement, and I think
it's a truism. The state is the ultimate squatter over all of us and
our God given natural rights to ourselves, our property, the fruits of our
labor, our freedom of choice, freedom of contract, freedom of association and
speech. Flurries of so called emergencies and fancies of their personal utopias, and
new phases of fascism and new modes of fear mongering, all claim residents in
our lives, plans and souls. Resistance is ordained. Let's have resistance rather
than government residents. And that is what it is. Once they make the
argument that the state can command you to pay for the state for your own
protection. Well, they're squatting in your life. I think that's irrefutable.
I think it's it's slightly philosophical. I think it puts a little twist on
some of these squatting stories. But that's what we got. Well, hopefully
that was interesting for you, and hopefully I made a good point. I
thought I did. So you can check out my my Twitter slash x feed
at Guard Goldsmith. If you're looking for more information on that or anything like
that, feel free to hang out and drop comments I see over on x
Ananda g is there and aloha to you, thank you so much, and

says it's Kane great show. Guard, Thank you so much, Tornator,
thank you for the contribution to the show as well. And don't forget that
David Knight also has a Subscribe Star if you want to subscribe each month over
there great great people always inside the chats at Subscribe Star. David has great
supporters and so many people do wonderful things to support David as well. And
I see Angus Mustangs inside Rockvin. Really appreciate this. And Brian dev McCartney
two viewers in one and let's see we've got a Tony Leherman says, resistance
is futile. You will become one with the Borg inside Rockvin. Yes,
And since I'm friends with the guy who created the Borg, Brandon Braga my
time at Star Trek Voyager, and Brandon is a pro liberty guy by the
way he gets it, he gets it. I salute you. If I
had my Star Trek pin or something like that, I would I would say
that, thank you so much. It's been a long time since the old
days in LA and I'm glad. I'm glad I left LA, but i
still have some friends there, So thank you so much for that. Really
appreciate it. Well, you know, talking about friends, and there's I'm
reminded of a song called friends Friends Friends by Johnny Whitaker. This is a
situation where I don't think that the California homeowners are seeing that they have a
lot of friends. Now, if you follow my work at MRCTV, you
probably know that I've written numerous articles about how government claim over land which they're
not supposed to do, whether it's a national monument like the Grand Escalante National
Monument that Bill Clinton created and suddenly took up most of the anthracite that was
in that two or three state area Nevada Arizona area, and suddenly, all
of a sudden, the Lippo group, which had you know, highly supported
him to run for president, they became the owners of the largest portion of
clean burning anthracite. I know, it's crazy. I don't know how that
works. It's amazing. I just like, wow, what a stroke of
luck. LiPo group, Way to go, John Huang, and you know
all that stuff. These to have, the Lippo banks just outside of LA
They're all gone, I think now. But none of those things are constitutional
and war, none of it. And so one of the things that I
have tied into some of that writing at MRCTV is the fact that when you
look at the California wildfires, and they actually got pretty much a tacit admission
of this from PG and E. And this was before the fire that started
in Lahina. All these things. I was writing about how these power companies
run their power line over government run land. Now, there had already been
a lot of people who talked about how the government has no incentive to husband
the land. And I mentioned before when I was leaving Vancouver, was working
at a TV show up in Vancouver and driving across out of Seattle, I
met a guy who was repairing my car. He said, you want to
see an interesting thing. Look on the north side of Snowsqualmy Pass. You'll
see the highway runs east west. On the north side, you'll see the
land that's run by Warehouser. They selectively cut. They have a vested interest
in it, they want to keep it running, they have a long term
investment, and they don't want soil erosion. And then look at the south
side that's owned by the government. It's rented out, and of course you
get massive soil erosion, depletion. And it's the tragedy of the commas.
The first people who can get in on the government run thing that's commonly run.
They'll take everything that they can get from it, and they don't want
to leave anything, and it's not husbanded. So it's just the way that
private property is superior in con sequence, not just the moral part of it,
that's the key, but in consequence it also turns out to be run
in a superior way because individuals are protecting their own interests and trying to do
right by their consumers. So, if you got a free market, the
person dealing with things has to husband things and has to cater to the consumer.
Well, when you don't have a free market, you don't have private
property incentives, you get things like the California wildfires. So one of the
first times I was writing an article for MRCTV about the California wildfires, I
happened to have a friend who lost his home in Napa. Literally they had
seven minutes. He wrote a book called seven Minutes to Escape their house.
And he said they were driving down the road and the embers. They had
a tailwind coming on the embers. They were going seventy miles an hour,
and the embers were flying faster than the car. They were going ahead of
the car. It was like reverse warp speed, you might say, right.
So, well, it turns out I was looking at another one of
the fires and I was on one of the California TV websites and they had
real time footage of the fires where they were starting. I said, oh,
man, of course these fires are PG and E. That's specific gas
and electric, and they run their lines over government run lands because they get
it for cheap. And that's exactly what they were doing in Lahina. They
did it for another power thing I think was in Oklahoma. They had a
fire there that was massive, and even PG and E later, after a
couple of the massive wildfires just a couple of years ago, said we're going
to do selective brownouts or blackouts and shut down the power in certain areas to
resist fire threats because they know that sparks slop off these things. They can
touch stuff and boom, stuff goes and firestart. So now, as David
mentioned on his show when he was here a couple days ago, yesterday,
California homeowners face and insurance risk. Now I've already written about this over at
my substack, and you can check out the Gardener Goldsmith substack weeks ago in
my Sunday News Assembly. Every Sunday, I put out at least twenty stories
that are pertinent to liberty, economics philosophy. Split those things open, get
the lessons from them, give them to our kids, that sort of thing.
Well, State Farm is stopping new applications. They're not accepting new applications
for homeowners in California. They stopped last May due to increased wildfire risk.
And also you've got USAA. They're not issuing policies anymore. Starting July second,
State Farmer no longer cover thirty thousand homes and forty two thousand apartments,
so they stopped issuing. And now they're no longer going to renew seventy two
thousand of the people who had been holding on to them. Then you've got
the Hartford and All State they're all leaving California. Why because of fire risk?
Quote The decision was not made lightly and only after careful analysis of State
Farm General's financial health, which continues to be impacted by inflation, catastrophe exposure,
reinsurance costs, and limitations of working within decades old insurance regulations. Now
in this article they blame, of course, the climate canard. And we'll
get to that in a little bit when we have an opportunity, either today
or tomorrow to talk about al Gore coming back. Now, I thought al
Gore had handed over the reins of climate king to John Kerry, who,
of course was a big hero for everything he does. John Kerry, Hello,
do you like me? I'm a hero? Yeah. I threw away
my medals. Really, your medals are up on the wall. Oh did
I say medals? I meant ribbons the same thing. The ribbons they travel
just as far when you throw them. You know. It's I've got a
good arm, strong strong arm I mentioned on my Liberty Conspiracy strong like ox.
Oh but wait a minute, that's methane. Oh that's terrible. It's
strong like some that doesn't emit methane. Strong like that John Kerry hero.
Haha. Well, now al Gore is coming back. We'll talk about that.
But I do want to mention that the situation for California homeowners is really
getting bad. The economy, of course, is not going to be doing
very well for people in California in particular, but for many of us.
And we'll show you a little bit of this later on. There's new information
coming out. Pete Saint Ann's economist for the Heritage Foundation, mentioned that Social
Security and Medicare are now underfunded by one hundred and seventy five trillion dollars because,
of course it's a Spaonzi scheme. Talk about that probably in the eleven
o'clock hour, what comes to roughly one point four million dollars per American household.
So what's one of the big things they're going to be doing as this
economic collapse approaches. Well, of course they want to switch everybody over to
see b DC and you can see here reclaim the net Swift completes the second
phase of sandbox testing for its CBDC interlinking. That is not good. It's
coming. They want to control your ability to be able to make deals,
to be able to transact with other people, and of course to be able
to hide what they've been doing for so long, undercutting your ability to be
able to survive in certain areas. Just like the California politicians tried to hide
the fact that PG and E could have been responsible for those fires, the
government continues to try to hide the fact that they are burning up your earnings.
Let's turn to a man who knows a lot about that he is Tony
Ardeburn of Wise Wolf Gold and Silver Exchange. Tony, thanks for joining us
as I get to fill in for David Knight as you have. Welcome to
the program. Campadre from the Soviet of New Hampshire to you. How are
you? It's good to see you guard. Yes, goodness, see you
too, Man, great to see you. You look fantastic. Are you
at the Texas office or are you in Missouri right now? I'm at my
Texas office and I was going to click on the link today and bring in
my actual studio, but nothing works. Surprisingly, I couldn't log in with
my normal equipment, so we're talking through my phone. Are you kidding?
It sounds great? You look phenomenal. Hey good, it's working out then,
and yeah, so let's talk about let's talk about SWIFT. What does
that stand for. It's the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunications. It's the
backbone of the Western financial reconciliation system and it's been weaponized over the last many
decades and that is blowing back on us. That's why you see the emergence
of the Bricks Nations and now Bricks Plus and you've added Saudi Arabia. They
have twenty five other country he's in the periphery that are applying for membership.
I don't think people realize guard the historical gravity of the situation that we're in.
And I want to bring people back to nineteen eighty five. One of
my favorite movies is Rocky four. I think there's a lot of life lessons
in that movie. It's philosophy and it's just probably America at its best,
you know, like that's that's the America I grew up in. I was
born at the end of nineteen seventy nine. So this is like right smack
dab in the middle of the of the Reagan era, you know, and
it's morning in America. Let's go back to nineteen eighty five. They make
you know, Rocky fours that were stallone goes and fights the Russian on Christmas,
right, And if you're if you're in the theater in nineteen eighty five
and you're looking at this what Reagan called the evil Empire. He only said
it one time about the Soviet Union. Be called an evil empire, and
it's the mighty Soviet Union. I mean, they were for in space.
They had nuclear submarines, ICBMs, and it was a death struggle between what
we perceived as capitalism and free markets in the West and godless communism. So
in the theater in eighty five, it looks like, wow, that's a
real struggle, and we've got a this is going to be a generational struggle.
But if you were if you were told, hey, this thing that
you're watching, and this is so such a huge event, you know,
and the Soviet Union is so powerful, but in five years it'll be gone.
It'll just be gone off the face of the earth and it won't exist
anymore, and their their currency won't exist anymore, and they can't project geopolitical
power anymore, and they're going to break into sixteen pieces. It would have
seemed like the prognostications of a crazy person. Yeah, so true, right,
But that's what we're so, this is kind of where we are now.
Guard is like our financial system and what we've what we've come to understand
is reality when it comes to our society and economics, it's all changing,
but it's changing in these weird ways. Like you're mentioning that the Swift system
is creating their own central bank. This is all the same thing. Whether
it's the Bank of International Settlements of the IMF. Uh. You know,
they all link together. So we're creating a you know, the prison house
financial system in the wake of losing ground and losing power financially worldwide. So
I I think, I think that's what what I like to talk about when
when I'm trying to break this down, because I want to understand, you
know, what this all, what this is going to mean to us,
And I just don't think people, even myself included, truly grasps for the
implications of how big of a change we're about to see. Yeah, I
agree with you, Tony. Tony Arderburner's our guest. Folks, why is
wolf gold and silver Exchange? Go to Davidknight dot gold if you want to
use the portal to get in and get connected with the wolf Pack. We'll
talk about the wolf Pack in a little bit. But it really is the
and it's really been coming for quite a while. It's the panopticon financial system
is what we're looking at here, you know. And Jeremy Bentham and his
brother were the ones who came up with the concept of the panopticon, a
prison with a tower in the center that could look out at everybody in a
circle around them. They tried to sell the idea throughout Russia. Amazingly,
the Russians didn't accept it, which is interesting. It's an interesting parallel right
now with the bricks and of course the ruble and Nation States. Starting around
two thousand and eight, two thousand and nine, separating from long term US
debt obligations, they dropped the long term bond and of course we've seen,
we've seen, you know, the United States bond situation has become inverted.
And so they were prescient because when they saw what Obama was doing with the
so called American American Recovery Act, they knew if they got long term bonds,
they'd be paid back with dollars that were worth less than when they first
bought the bonds. So they started to get gold and something that would resist
the inflationary pressures of politicians wanting more of this money so that they can expand
their panopticon state on all of us. And of course, do it for
our blessings, right, do it for us, right? So this swift
thing, and this is very interesting because they just did their beta test and
they finished it off. Over the last six months, I was reading the
Reclaim the Net piece on this. This indicates to me that we're going to
be seeing people like Janet Yellen, people like Liz Warren and so on.
They're really going to start pushing hard, either this summer or this fall for
stopping the cryptocurrencies and pushing more for CBDCs the way that they've already been doing.
But I think they're going to ramp up and really rattle those sabers.
Oh, I think so too. And let's not forget even with the rise
of like the big coin ETFs, which I think it could possibly be a
bad thing in the long run for Bitcoin. I mean, we're already starting
to see people like Larry Fink come out and endorse it. Whenever Larry Fink
endorses something that that I've been pushing, I start to question myself. It's
a moment. It's a moment of introspection and pause. By the way,
Larry Fink just came out from Black Rock and said that in emerging markets,
those who invest in gold are hurting their own markets. They're actually detrimental by
putting their money in gold because they said it doesn't do anything. We could
we could make that argument. I know thatat what fiat currency does. It's
destructive, it's satanic, it robs people of their wealth. So I think
you know, the the establishment is at war with emerging technologies like cryptocurrency,
because cryptocurrency itself asked the question why do I need you, and it's a
resounding I don't. The answer is I don't government, I don't need the
establishment. I don't need the Wall Street criminals. For money. We have
a worldwide gold standard, we have a worldwide silver standard. We have things
like bitcoin. We have other tokens that you know, again, this is
peer to peer. You can choose what sort of token you want to trade
in. This should be a free market. But the establishment and people like
Elizabeth Warren who works on behalf of the banksters. Let's not forget that there's
no there's no populist so called populist person out there or progressive that isn't funded
by by the world's most powerful corporations for their own interests. If you're for
the people, then you be for decentralization, you be for free markets,
and you be for some sort of metallic standard in your currency of some kind
and government involved. I think you and I would we would intersect very well
on that. I don't think you or I think that there should be any
govern involvement and currency, and I, you know, that's a great lesson
because you know, I would run into traditional conservatives, especially up until the
last few years. I think more people I've recognized more people are starting to
see the larger lesson that, you know. I don't want to say it's
like some great insight or whatever, but Ron Paul would discuss this a lot.
He's like, you don't have to just abolish the FED. All you
have to do is allow for free market money, which is essentially what people
did with bitcoin and what we do with gold or silver or things like that.
Often people would say, well, you know the Federal Reserve, it's
not federal and it has no reserves. It's like, that's true. But
even if the US government the Treasury were to do it, according to the
Constitution, you shouldn't have it be the exclusive money because anytime a nation state
is tied to the issuance of the only currency the Fiat imposed by Fiat on
everybody, it has an incentive to start printing up more money so it can
shell it out to everybody, which is exactly what they did in ancient Rome.
They would call the coins back, shave the silver off, you know,
and then make new coins and then reissue the other ones that were now
lighter and claim, oh, they're worth just as much, so they could
pay off all their their you know, their fiefdoms, and they're different soldiers
all over the place, all the way up to you know, Hadrian's Wall.
So the problem is endemic to any ties of monetary system, to the
state. It's just the way that it's going to go. And this is
a classic example of this because we can see just the last inflation report,
right, or price increase report according to the Consumer Price Index, which isn't
even the same basket of goods as it was in the seventies. So the
inflation numbers are much worse than three and a half percent, that's for sure.
But we know that since Biden entered office and partially inspired by the massive
Cares dump of trillions thanks to Trump, we have a seventeen almost eighteen percent
price increases just based on their basket of goods. Today it's over twenty percent
if you go by what the numbers used to be collected back in the seventies.
So trying to escape this is really important. And I wonder I'd love
to get your thoughts, Tony, because we've got the election coming up,
and prognostication is worth about as much as the syllables are worth. But I
really wonder what the Federal Reserve is going to do here, because typically when
they want somebody to stay in office, they will keep interest rates lower to
artificially pump up more investment, more people bringing in employees and things like that
make the economy look good. That's going to lead to an artificial boom.
And then of course once prices start going up, people usually withhold their money,
and then you get the bust and all those jobs and things have to
be gotten rid of. All that stuff needs to be liquidated because the price
doesn't reflect the value. Again reference to Wizard of Oz. You liquidated or
a all that stuff? Right, Very resourceful of you. So, but
the problem is now they've already got the runaway inflation, they've already got the
runaway price increases. So what what do you think they're going to be doing?
Well? I definitely think that the closer we get to the election,
uh, the more chances the increase that will see the rate cuts. They're
gonna they're gonna cut rates, They're gonna lower rates. I think what they'd
like to see guard And let's not forget, you know, we talk about
the selection process. And I have been following politics since I was a little
kid. I've always been interested. I'm no longer interested anymore in politics,
especially our national politics, because it's just such a it's such a side show
to what is actually going on. There's so much psychological warfare going on in
it. You have to choose a side. I feel like I'm captured in
some sort of mind war folkroum, you know, all the time. But
so I try to step away from it. So let's not forget that whoever
wins in November, we lose. Uh, let's just think about that.
For it is the establishment going to suffer if Trump is elected? No.
Uh, they were able to jam down all these unconstitutional you know, not
you're non essential, strip you of your liberties in twenty twenty, Uh,
destroy the supply chain, you know, all the things that happened to tyranny
that you know the Under Trump and his last year of his presidency, forty
percent of all the dollars created were made out of thin air. So I
don't think that the establishment fears a Trump victory. I think what they're if
I could paint a picture, and this is where my mind goes, and
again you're you're exactly right. Were we don't know, we're taking shots in
the dark because we're we're not part of the cabald I didn't see you at
Builderberg last year at guard, so we don't really know. But I think
I think if you were to look at it from from a standpoint of painting
a picture, I think they'd like to see Biden look better, the estate,
bablishment look better. So the economy's doing well that way, if the
sentiment in the mood of the country is like, well, we're still going
to put in Trump or there's enough, there's enough you know, popular sentiment
out there where they can't really cover it up. And so any let's say
he's selected in November. I think after that they've had such damage to the
dollar, inflation, the increase and expansion of the money supply, they're gonna
have to lower rates again, you know, Jerome Powell, or excuse me,
raise rates again. They raised rates faster than any time in history in
the last three years, and people don't reize that it's the fastest rate breaks
rises in history. So I think the analysis that I'm looking at is that
even if they're going to be lowering rates here soon to goose the economy,
it'll give it a fake sugar high for a little while, but there's gonna
be a lot of damage done and a lot of cleanup that they're going to
have to try to do by raising rates in twenty twenty five that will usher
in I think the banking crisis. I don't think twenty four this year will
be the year we start seeing the big reveal of all the damage done from
two thousand and nine. I think twenty twenty five is guard and I don't
you know, if I'm if it's really hard, I probably have brain damage
from trying to think like a neo con globalist lizard person to figure out what,
you know, what they're going to do next. But wouldn't it be
like, oh, you know, we were doing fine in twenty twenty four,
and you know the economy was good in November, you still elected the
Orange Man and it's maga and look what America first did, and these dump
all the economic crash and the emergence of the bricks and the death of the
dollar, and these dump it all in the lap of maga. I think
that would be a scenario for the establishment to have permanent Uni party rule forever.
And I mean that's where my mind goes. If we're talking about financed
as a weapon. Are they just lowering rates to make Biden look better that's
an open question, or are they just saying we want to make him look
better at the time, or you know, we can always point back and
see you were doing well. But you know, again, it's it's all.
It all leads back to fake It's not federal, it's not a reserve,
and it's not constitutional, and we're this is everybody looks in finances now,
everybody looks to what the federal reserve is going to do. And that
is not how we that's not how this country was set up, and that's
not how free markets work. Oh it's amazing. You know, you got
the convergence of certain philosophical problems inherent in the state and money and things like
that. Then you've got the opportunists like the Rockefellers and others who met at
Jicko Island, and then the people who come subsequently to that. And I
was mentioning to David on the phone yesterday that, you know, I think
we always know that they're gonna be these political opportunists and they're going to get
into these places or create these things, and then they're the larger opportunists who
are sort of behind things, and they know that well, philosophically, we
can keep driving these people towards collectivism because they might want to be rent seekers,
they might want to game the system for themselves. So we're gonna we're
the big opportunists here, and we're gonna pick and choose favorites here. And
I see things like the wars that are going on with Ukraine. I'd love
to get your opinions on a couple things, Tony before you have to go.
First, tell me your thoughts about the Key Bridge collapse and economically how
that might tie into things, and your own personal thoughts on what you've seen
reported and so on and so forth. Claims that it was sabotage, you
know, Laura Logan has been talking about that, and any thoughts you might
have on that, and then perhaps how these Big four might be waiting to
see how things pan out with the Russia Ukraine stuff and the Israeli Gaza stuff
before they really start battening down their hatches with their CBDC in twenty twenty five,
what do you think about the Key Bridge thing? Well, I think
even if you take out the conspiracy, which seems more and more likely,
and you talk about the reports from Laura Logan, and we're at war,
whether it's an external or an internal forces, we're at more their sabotage,
we know that. But the real sabotage in our infrastructure comes from the neglect,
from the abandonment of this country by the elite who run it. I
mean, even somebody like Tucker Carlson has talked a lot about how does the
country survive when the people that rule it hate it and we haven't worked on
our infrastructure. Our airports are run down, our highways are terrible, and
you have more overt sabotage, the shutting down on the borders, shutting down
of the ports with the JAB mandates, stopping Russian energy, stopping natural gas,
shutting down the oil exploration. People claim that Biden gave up a portion
of anwar that was two thirds, not what was agreed to. He only
gave basically a third of what was supposed to be drilled up in anwar.
They've been doing the more overt things as well. Yes, well, it
just describes America as a pitiful giant, like we have this, all these
resources, all this potential, all this strength that we can't use. We
can't tap into the ingenuity of the American people. We can't we can't tap
into what made America great in the first place, which was just getting to
work and building things. I mean when we built the Empire State Building at
the height of the Great Depression Guard nineteen thirty three, I mean just in
time for King Kong to climb up it. I mean we were right there,
right and I think about that. You know, we can't we can't
build buildings anymore. We don't. You got the perfect it's like the perfect
example of where we are. Regardless if it's sabotage, it's probably a sabotage
in some way because of the the chemicals and other necessary things to move across
that bridge. That it's you know, you're something that that logan was referencing.
You know, we we have so much, so much that's been neglected,
so much that has fallen away over the past many years. And I
mean, you look Pete, Butterage Edge, it's this pot old Pete.
I mean, well, he's literally a pot pothole Pete because he couldn't fix
the infrastructure of South Bend and then they make him the transport. It's like
we're living in a humiliation ritual by the elite. They're like, hey,
right, right, true, can we get a guy named pothole which probably
has so many other hidden connotations, but we're gonna put him in charge?
Pothole Pete. And I think that's this is this is a sad, sad
thing to watch the American empires crumbling. And it starts internally. If you
read anything, if you ever sat down and read Gibbons, you ever sat
down and read The Decline and Fall the Roman Empire? Edward Gibbons wrote six
volumes on that I read. I tried to read the first three when I
was in Iraq. And one thing I noticed about Gibbons is that he wrote
he wrote The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire. You know the date
it was published. This published in seventeen seventy six, Yeah, along with
Adam Smith right Wealth of Nations, And I thought about that, like the
beginning of our country at the American experiment, the Republic was was Gibbons warning,
this is what happens is this is you know, the apex of empires,
and you can follow along. You can see where Rome started to decline,
what they declined on, you know, what was the reasons for their
disintegration, And it really is hearkens back to something Pat yu Canon said,
the only lesson we learned from history is that we do not learn from history.
So true, so true. And you know, I know you speak
very fondly of Pat. I met him a number of times when he was
up here in New Hampshire. My folks were working on his presidential campaign.
What a nice guy, great guy. And it's funny as you bring up
Edward Gibbons, because you know, it makes me think about resistance to these
things and how eventually people start to go to gray markets, they start to
try to get away from these things. And there's actually a quote Jacob Hornberger
the Future Freedom Foundation is going to be with us tomorrow and this came in
in their email yesterday at quote from Edward given whenever the offense inspires less horror
than the punishment the rigor of penal law is obliged to give way to the
common feelings of mankind. So I think it just maybe just depends on how
much people are willing to put up with and how many canards they can sell
to people to say this is your protection. Oftentimes, I think there's an
information problem there. The larger the area of control, as if Ahyak noted,
the less information the people in one area have over the other area,
and that sort of thing, and the politicians don't have that information. But
if they can pretend or make up a story about something that's happening here that
needs to be taken care of by everybody, well I'm not there. I
don't know. And this is the sort of thing where whether it's physical physicality
or it's the COVID canard that they try to push, well, you just
don't know. We've got the scientists here, so you better go by what
we're saying. They constantly come up with this series of brick bats and bogeyman
to try to frighten people about things that in their daily lives they just don't
have time to investigate, or in their geography they don't know about. And
this is one of the major problems with the larger empire of the United States.
They'll say, oh, there's an emergency in Afghanistan, there's an emergency
here, there's an emergency there. We have to stop this, we have
to fund Ukraine. Look at the way they've been able to pull people's eyes
wool over people's eyes about Ukraine. When, as I mentioned to you,
I had a friend in December of twenty thirteen come up to me and say,
hey, where are you getting your information on Ukraine? Because I was
reporting about the mite on Kup and he had worked for the Obama administration and
left because he was disgusted. And I said, well, I'm just doing
research, you know, And he said, well, you're right, and
there's a lot more. Well, he didn't want to tell me anymore because
he said he had a daughter, and I said, okay, you don't
tell me. Yeah. I thought he was just getting dramatic. But there
was a lot more, obviously, And so I really am. I'm heartened
by people starting to pick this up. And it bothers me when I see
the way that the politicians depict people in other nation states they're trying to pull
away from the US dollar as being the bad guys, you know, and
they started to do this in two thousand and nine with Russia. Of course,
Russia was going to be working with Syria to get their pipeline out there
to try to overthrow a SOD and Syria they overthrew Kadafi because he was going
to start at gold base African currency. And most people don't know about that,
you know. So I think getting the information out is really really key,
and I'd love to get your thoughts also about you know, mentioning on
the beat on the bay Bridge thing before we talk about anything about Ukraine or
anything like that, Tony, do you think this could have been you know,
I think a lot of people are going to say there, you know,
I read something earlier today it could have been China. Well, again,
that's the book, that's the easy go to boogeyman. I don't see
an incentive for China to do that. I also know that Vault seven shows
us that the United States intelligence agencies, if they do engage in this sort
of thing, can make it look like anybody did it. So what do
you what are your thoughts on possible false flag uh and any any reasons that
that someone in the deep state might have been involved with that. Oh just
lost your audio. Lost your audio? Yeah, there you go. Oh
I think still still no audio? Given another shot, Uh, still no
audio. Hold on a second, I've got your I've got your mic.
Thing is on here, so it's on your your end. It looks like
let me just double check. Oh he's he's gone, but he'll come back,
he'll come back. I want to hear that, and I want to
hear what's going on at Wisewolf as well. So, uh, while he
is doing that, we'll check out comments from folks over at X. We've
got uh oh Ananda, yes, thank you again. And Tony's back.
Let's bring him in. Hey, Tony, welcome back? Is that better?
Your thumbs up? On hundred percent? I would say that I would
go with Aukham's razor on that guard. I mean, uh, most of
the conflicts that we've been drug into in the last hundred years began with the
false flag the national security lost your signal there a little bit. You'll just
repeat after you say national security. We've got a little it must be the
signal or something we just you just dropped out. Try it again, Oh
lost ya lost? Yea, still no still no sound. Still no sound.
So ah that stinks, well, Tony, sorry about that? No
sound right now? Yeah, I'll bring it back. And what I will
do is actually do this. Hold on a second, let me do this.
I as as bother some as it might be. I am going to
call Tony right now and we can actually watch him pick up the phone and
we'll put him on speaker. There we go, So let me take him
off there, and he's going to join us on speaker. Hey Tony,
Hey, we are connected now, yeah, we're connected. We're connected.
I know they're only gonna they're only gonna see my beautiful, beautiful long locks
here and not your beard. But thanks man, real quick, I real
quick, move there, and it's great to have you back. Appreciate it.
Well, I appreciate you. I think the issues of phones ringing,
like my phone just keeps ringing over and over again, so it's knocking off
my PD on my phone, and this is about the time everything gets started.
Oh gotcha, gotcha? Yeah? Yeah, all right, Well we
won't keep you too much longer, Tony, but I really appreciate you joining
us. And yeah, i'd love to get your thoughts on what you think
is gonna, you know, having military service, been a paratrooper. What
your thoughts are regarding not just false flags, but you were mentioning a little
bit about the false flag stuff and Oukham's razor. Yeah, I mean that's
what we've seen the last hundred years is a series of false flags to uh,
you know, animated people and to uh, you know, a sense
of outwork for you have outrage the enemies out there. It's whether it's the
Cold War, which probably had some validity, or to something like the worldwide
global War on terrorism which I took part in it where all the tires hit
up. Yeah. Yeah, we're supposed to be in this. We're supposed
to be in this death struggle of civilizations and were twenty plush years on and
where they all go. They're conveniently activated whenever the booking man. But right
now it's hit Russia and China and the elite sect, the Grand cup or
something. I think a lot more cataclysm because honestly, they need a they
need a new Cold War, but probably a kinetic war to save the current
system financially, the dollar, keyp dollar itself, the military industrial conflict.
So anything that's happening, whether it's the key bridge or anything like that.
If we watch or sabotage, I think it's the calls are coming from inside
the house. That's how That's how I perceive it. You know, whether
you're the Chinese Bible, why did the Chinese date at Bibler, I mean,
they own our politicians, they have our universities, exactly, exactly,
all all of the hammering, the hammering, stop the hammering on TikTok,
just ridiculous. You know, the US government is doing much more than that.
They've already been exposed years ago for doing that sort of thing, and
they've already engaged in the propaganda of funding various social media organizations to make our
messages less visible to censor us. It's been exposed over and over again.
And of course then they've got the constitution. I don't see any power to
ban a company or ban the sale of a product. I see the power
for them to impose a tariff that could be very very high to make it
tough to buy something like that. But again, you know that's you know,
picking winners and losers sort of thing. But this is I think you're
right, this is a very very troubling time. I one more question about
the key Bridge thing, Tony, with your knowledge about deep state operations,
we already heard that the black Box recording stopped because they lost power on the
on the ship. I think that much like nine to eleven, much like
the airplane downings off, the airplane downing on Long Island, and then of
course over Pennsylvania, we're not gonna the government is going to be very,
very thick and it's not going to allow this information to come out to us.
And I think we're I don't know what you think, but I think
we're gonna start hearing a lot of stories. Uh, if people start to
think that it was some sort of cyber attack, they're gonna they're They're not
going to allow anybody to consider that it could have been someone from the United
States. And I think they're going to try to censor people, maybe people
like Laura Logan if what she comes up with really is valid. What do
you think. I think they obviously used the same power systems they had in
Epstein's prison cell for the black box or whatever cameras were supposed to watch Stephen
Paddocks. There a hotel them must taken. Yes, yeah, they can
be. They lose power to all these things. I think it could be
a multiplier in a way. Are you're absolutely right where you know they're setting
up the page for unknown? I mean, what's scarier than the known?
Is it? Is it? Uh? China? Is it? Russia?
Is a terrorism? Is it a rogue element in our own intelligence? Is
it Ukraine? Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, Ukrainian element?
I've seen you know, there was a telegram channel supposedly that was putting out
to post about how they did that they were responsible. Uh, now it's
time for the West to donate for money or something. They must put more
money into Ukraine or this will happen or something like that. I've seen,
you know, who knows anymore? I think the unknown, the chaos,
that's the oil in which you know totalitarian behavior. Absolutely absolutely, You've got
You've got of things to choose from, whether it's somebody like Laura Logan who's
trying that tough questions or follow through on intelligence she was given about foreign actors
or whatever and then using that as you know what the kind of like Woodrow
Wilson did was it wasn't nineteen seventeen was they asked to be a jack star
Yeah, goodness knows. I hope we all get prosecuted for that, because,
yeah, it's such a wonderful and constitutional thing. And that reminds me
about Juliana Sange. You know, it's it's amazing to see one of the
most high profile guys who did the right thing, along with Chelsea Manning,
doing the right thing, exposing US war crimes. That is such an obvious
case that the people who are lower level doing reports. How can we possibly
think that we could defend against such a corrupts. I think one of the
ways is just trying to continue to communicate with each other in these ways.
And Tony, why don't you tell people a little bit about how they can
find you on your broadcasts where they can find you on Twitter? And then
let's talk finally about Wise Wolf Gold and Silver Exchange and what's going on there.
How can they find you? Well, the easiest way to find me
is go to my website. It's Art for News, and most of my
shows are there on the rss feed podcast, which is the Article and Radio
Advancement or the Wise Wolf Golden Cryptos Show, and I have a podcast called
Paratruth or I'll put out about once a month or so, and then we
can dive into some of the things. Like you and I talked about,
we try to try to look into the future, look into the past and
do what all this means, because it can be very lots of stuff going
on all the funds Guard. But yeah, we've sponsored the programs through wise
Wolf, Gold and Silver. You can go to Dave a Night dog Golds
or David for Sugar. No nothing is too small or too large rested handle
or a nation wide dealer pre Precious Medals and we have wook Pack so that's
a monthly miniership program. Again, all all those things that go through David
Knight dog Golds or David and the Magnificent program which you're you're crushing it Guard
here and your final stretch is like you have you just getting warmed up.
Hey, Tony, listen, I was I was going to ask you to
do this. I know you got to go, but I was going to
ask you to do this when you were on on your camera. You know,
underneath my gray shirt right now, I have my uh, David Knight
T shirt U and I also have my David Knight pen down here, and
I just want to mention because you know you and I know, and the
audience knows. David mentioned that David's going through some tests, he's been,
you know, looking at his heart and things like that. And so if
we can express people as two people who've been just graced with amazing blessings from
David, let's both say as you as you sign off, Let's just suppose
say God bless David Knight and everybody there, and if anybody in the house
is listening or watching in David's family, how much we love and appreciate all
the folks in the Night family. And I think by extension, you are
part of that family, and you make me You do many, many good
things for me, just like David, and I want to tell you how
much I appreciate that too. But anything you want to say for David is
that you know he's away today and tomorrow, well I have to say that
that you do. Guard. I thank you the words. Uh, God,
God bless family. Uh he's been and this time okay, and grief
looks somebody like for hope and rank and ability. He's a low star,
he really is. I mean, you can set your watch behind me.
Just know there's still there's still a good man left on plans and so he's
very Uh, I've had to make a better broadcast. Talk to him.
Wants water to fill in with it for him sometime. You can never truly
fill in for David Truck That's right, that's right. Well, Tony,
Look, I know the signals breaking up a little bit, so we'll leave
it at that. Wise Wolf, Gold and Silver Exchange, David Knight,
dot Gold, Tony Ardeburn, Ardiburn Radio Transmission. Go to Arterburn News,
Artiburn Dot News, Artiburn dot News. Tony God bless you man, and
have a good Friday, early man. Okay, all right, all right,
we'll talk to you soon. Tony Arterburn a very very very good man,
and I hope people will check out Wise Wolf, Gold and Silver Exchange,
and of course go to David Knight dot Gold. The common Man.
They created common Core, They've dumbed down our child. They created comment Past
to track and control us their comments project. It could be very valuable to
UH if people would focus on kind of building up you know. So,
I think that it's a little bit of an unfortunate situation there, but I
think from Israel's perspective, I would do my best to move the people out
and then clean it up. I think proactively recognizing the positive and state would
essentially be rewarding an active terror away powerful at all. Surprised that those sociopathic
right, so coming out of the closit there getting a little double audio from
something in the system. So thank you so much, Tony Ardiburn for joining
us. Just phenomenal, so great to hear from Tony. What a good,
good guy. And so I want to take the opportunity to turn to
you in the chat and mentioned that I am seeing people still contributing over rock
fand so nice of you to do that. I noticed that James had tipped
five as well over at Rockfan and at Rumble as well. Appreciate everyone being
there and great comments from people. Let me know what you think about the
of the bridge collapse. Obviously a lot of speculation is really only what we're
going on now, But I think there are some other lessons that can be
learned here about the United States involvement so called fixing the UH. Fixing the
UH the bridge for America so that we can get all the different things that
we're supposed to get in the market and so on. And you know why
is the United States government involved with that? But I also want to turn
to something else, and so feel free to drop your comments in there one
and all. But I mentioned on the economic front that Pete Saint Are did
an excellent job talking about social security. We'll talk about that a little bit
tomorrow. I think, um, yeah, I think it might be worthwhile
just to mention. Now let's go with the economic stuff. I think,
yeah, let's go with this, Pete Saint one. I'm gonna show not
all of this, but part of this about the economic problems that face us.
Not to be too down. But before we go into Donald Trump and
the Middle East and some of the things that he said that I think people
might be taking and giving him a little bit too much credit for this,
in fact, maybe looking at it the wrong way, because I think what
Donald Trump said about the Middle East was rather callous. I want to show
you what Pete Saint Ache has to say. Here's the headline. He is,
of course, the economist for Heritage one of the economists for Heritage Foundation.
In case you were thinking of retiring someday, bad news from Janet Yellen.
Social Security and Medicare are now underfunded by one hundred and seventy five trillion
dollars. That comes to roughly one point four million per American house hold.
There are only three solutions slash the number of beneficiaries, massively, hike taxes,
or cut everybody's benefit to poverty level. Here's Pete saintaj in case you
were thinking of retiring someday. There's some bad news from jan eight Yellen.
So Security and Medicare are now underfunded by one hundred and seventy five trillion dollars.
That's with a t that comes to roughly one point four million dollars per
household. That's worth noting the median household net worth in the United States is
roughly one seventh of that. The numbers come from the latest financial report of
the United States Government, a two hundred and fifty four page report laying out
all the gory details. One chart is particularly eye catching, laying out the
scale. So you've got the actual deficit just now balancing along at two trillion,
then the national debt at a grotesque thirty five trillion, and then the
real fun starts. So unfunded obligations on social Security and Medicare that collectively add
up to another one hundred and seventy five trillion. So what happened simple politicians
stole every penny that went into Social Security and Medicare, replacing them with IOU's
government bonds like Indiana Jones plopping a bag of sand on the altar. So
it turns out that was a large amount to steal. Soci Security and Medicare
together account for over a third of what the federal government collects in the form
of a fifteen point three percent payroll tax. Your company actually pays half of
that, so you pay twice what you think you do. Now, both
programs are incredibly wasteful, as you would expect from a government program, and
they pay out billions and fraudulent claims every year, including new people who live
overseas. But the real problem is both were intentionally set up as Ponzi schemes.
That is, they took in a lot of money early when there were
lots of people paying in few elderly. They pretended to set that money aside,
but they actually spent it, replacing it with that bag of sand.
Yet even the bag of sand is going now, with both programs expected to
run dry in the next ten years. So twenty thirty one for Medicare and
twenty thirty three for sold Security. So it's next brought to you by unchained
dot com. There are only three ways to fix this. First is slash
the number of people who get benefits, so, for example, raise the
retirement age to seventy or beyond. This is obviously very unpopular. Occasionally some
naive Republican tries, which is typically the last thing he does before ending his
congressional career. Option two is raise payroll taxes, which is also unpopular since
payroll is a flat tax, meaning voters hate it as much as they would
hate all taxes if they too were flat. And that brings us to option
three, cutting benefits. This is the path of least resistance, the do
nothing path, so we can safely assume Congress we'll follow it. Concretely,
that means whatever benefit you are expecting, slash a huge chunk off that.
So analysts are already expecting a twenty three percent cut within a decade. When
those fake trust fund sandbags run dry and then it keeps going, they will
cut off the ridge first. Of course, there aren't that many rich,
so they'll quickly move on to slashing Social Security checks and Medicare benefits for the
middle class, so you'll keep paying every step of the way, but you
won't get much back. This will throw millions of Americans back on their own
savings, which of course are draining even faster than those empty government promises.
Okay, we'll be watching. Thank you, Peter saint One, thank you
very much. You can find him over on Twitter. It's at Prof Profstong,
Prof Saint Ange, and I follow him. I find his information great.
He does a fantastic job. And of course, you know, one
of the things that I think is worth stressing is how often people think of
Social Security as some sort of an insurance program and that it is not a
Ponzi scheme they seem to think, which is absolutely false. The first year
that people got their money from Social Security, the first woman who got it
got more than she put into it. It's always been a Ponzi scheme.
And Jacob Harnberger, who I think believe will be joining us tomorrow on the
David Knight Show, wrote yesterday about Social Security and he says, I'm always
fascinated by people, including libertarians, who convince themselves that they are being good,
caring and compassionate by advocating the continuation of Social Security, claiming that it
would be heartless to suddenly terminate this program. They say that the moral thing
to do is continue the program for at least one generation. Of course,
we all know what would happen at the end of that period. People would
clamor for another twenty five year extension by saying that to suddenly and the program
would be heartless, and on and on. Right, Why do I find
this to be fascinating? Several reasons, he says. One, these paragons
of virtue are being good, caring, and compassionate with money that's being stolen
from people by the irs. It's always easy to be good, carrying and
compassionate with other people's money. It's not so easy to be good, carrying
and compassionate with one's own money. Two, these paragons of virtue are relying
on the initiation of force to demonstrate their sense of goodness, care, and
compassion. The money that funds social Security comes from taxation. Taxation is the
initiation of force. Refuse to pay your taxes and they will jail you.
Just google Irwin Shift at Peter Schiff's father. I get to know Erwin,
who's a nice man, nice man. He refused to pay his taxes,
and the consequence of his refusal was that officials forced him to die in prison.
If he had refused to surrender and had used deadly force to resist being
kidnapped and incarcerated, they would have killed him. There is nothing voluntary about
the taxes that fund social security. Thus, these paragons of virtue rely on
the initiation of force when they advocate the continuation of this socialist program. Third,
social security is a socialist program. The concept of a government provided retirement
dole for seniors originated among German socialists and was later imported into the United States,
where it became an established federal program under the regime of FDR during the
thirties. The program uses, of course, after he manipulated the Supreme Court
to make sure they would say that it was constitutional. The program uses the
course of taxing apparatus of the irs to take money from one group of people
to give it to another group of people. That's classic socialism, from each
according to his ability, to each according to his need. Thus, these
paragons of virtue are demonstrating their goodness, care, and compassion through their advocacy
of socialism. One of the most evil and destructive economic philosophies in history.
Absolutely, And of course the from his ability to according to his need is
all determined by the central power authority that will be lording it over you.
Fourth, it's not voluntary. Fourth, these paragons of virtue have also convinced
themselves that throughout their work, throughout their work lives, people have put their
money into a Social Security retirement program. Thus, they've convinced themselves that when
people receive Social Security checks, they're simply getting their retirement money back. Nothing
could be further from the truth. People pay taxes, the government spends those
tax revenues in the year it receives them. No tax money goes into a
Social Security retirement fund. Social Security is a plain welfare state program, no
different in principle from food stamps and public housing. And of course they use
the earned income tax credit now to increase the welfare system for people they call
indigen And it's just a promise that they're paying people back what was taken from
them from their employment taxes for these so called benefits. But they still promise
that they're going to pay the benefits later when people retire. Interesting, the
double payment idea. The best evidence of this is when a person dies,
his heirs are not entitled to unpaid social security benefits, or, for that
matter, writes Jacob Hornberger, unpaid food stamps and public housing benefits. Yes,
And of course, as I mentioned last night on Liberty Conspiracy at six
o'clock Monday through Friday on Rumble and Rockfinn and my Twitter which is x of
course at guard Goldsmith, I mentioned that black Americans tend to die earlier than
white Americans. So if people want to bring up the racial conflict thing and
systemic racism stuff, well they might want to say, maybe stop taking money
from people, and by the way, stop claiming that you're getting reparations from
people alive today by giving it to people who are alive today, who never
met each other, never harmed each other. How about that? Moreover,
writes Jacob Hornberger, ignorance of the law is no excuse. At any time,
in say their twenties, thirties, or forties, people could have hired
a lawyer and gotten a legal opinion stating that Social Security under the law is
nothing more than a welfare state program, not a retirement program into which they
were putting their money so then he goes through a lot of other things.
But I think it's very valuable to keep this in mind as we see the
economic pressures that are on people, very very troubling stuff, very troubling stuff.
Well, before we turn anywhere else, I want to give you what
I promised about Donald Trump and the Trump family. There's a little something this
section of the program and the David Knight Show Trump family traditions. Now,
as you know, I don't support Donald Trump. I think Donald Trump did
a good thing to lower corporate taxes. That was cool, trying to reduce
some regulations. He did a bad thing imposing massive, massive tariffs on foreign
washing machines and dishwashers, all to the benefit of the people, and in
Bob Portman in his state of Ohio, because of course the manufacturers of those
particular items are based mostly in Ohio. It was a massive backfire cost consumers
tons of money. As James Boulevard has mentioned, terriffts generally harmed consumers to
the tune of eight times as much as the particular industry that the politicians are
trying to help. And as I mentioned on liberty conspiracy, those of us
out here who were upset by the terminology of essential worker and non essential worker.
That is the same mindset that goes towards stopping certain products from coming in
from other countries because you think it's essential for America's security or America's economy or
anything like that. That's a politician deciding I should say, not say you.
That's a politician deciding that. So I see no difference philosophically or through
the immoral act of telling somebody you can buy this, you can't buy that,
from that to you can't work here, you can do this for work.
I see no difference. It's all in imposition. It's unfortunate, but
at least Donald Trump did reduce corporate taxes even as he sat in Syria and
so on and so forth. But recently Donald Trump said some things about Israel,
and I found some people actually praising him for what he said about Israel
and how they should get it done. They kind of took that out of
context because if you you see Donald Trump and here is zero hedge. This
originally came from antiwar dot com. Trump says Israel has to finish the war
as it's losing a lot of support. So this is the nation State of
Israel, which has been cited as probably engaging in genocide, where the leadership
of the Israeli government worked, and they have documents that show quotes of Benjamin
Netanyahu to have Hamas lead the Palestinian people as a political entity in Gaza,
because net Yahoo knew that they wouldn't negotiate, they would be oppositional, and
therefore they could use kinetic force, as they already have used connetic force over
decades to encroach into the Palestinian areas. It wasn't a land without any people
for a people without any land. There were people there when the Western forces
after World War Two created Israel and took their property from them. Right there
has been a steady encroachment with military incursions and the corralling of these people,
the control of the water. On my show on Liberty Conspiracy, I noted
a twenty eighteen article about how Israeli control of the water was making a really
making it very difficult to live in Gaza. We've got snipers and military people
from Israel, from the IDF not only stopping food from going in, but
stopping anesthetic from going in for kids. And the few remaining hospitals that are
not rubble anymore. Inside Gaza. We've got all sorts of people saying what
is happening is genocide. We've got the Israeli political forces tied to Benjamin Netanyahoo
who support the idea of from the river to the sea. It wasn't the
Palestinians who coined that term. It was in fact, even Benjamin NETANYAHUO has
used it. You might have seen video of him using it. The Palestinians
used it ironically to turn it on the Israelis who are already saying from the
river to the sea, Israelis want the land. Well, Donald Trump,
is you see the headline here? Finish the war because you're losing support.
This seems to me to be very indicative of his entire mindset. It doesn't
have to do with what's right or wrong. It has to do with not
morality, not the Constitution or his oath or anything like that. Those are
all schibaliths. It has to do with can you win, can you get
this deal done? Can you get the support? It's all a show.
That's what seems to be what triggers him. Now, maybe there's more.
If I were to have a conversation with him, maybe I could see that
in this case he meant something different, okay, And he's already done criminal
acts in so many other ways with the jabs, the lockdowns that were facilitated
by his unconstitutional executive order on March thirteenth, twenty twenty for the medical emergency.
No power to do that. But here is the sub information from Dave
to camp great website antiwar dot com. Former President Trump said in an interview
with Israel Hayam over the weekend that Israel made a big mistake by broadcasting images
and videos of the destruction in the Gaza strip, saying it's losing Israel a
lot of support. So it's all political, is it. The interviewer then
claimed the terrorists were hiding in the buildings, and Trump replied as follows,
go and do what you have to do, but you don't do that,
And I think that's one of the reasons that there has been a lot of
kickback if people didn't see that. Every single night, I've watched every single
one of those, and I think Israel wanted to show that it's tough,
but sometimes you shouldn't be doing that. So again, there's a little room
to say, maybe he didn't phrase it right, and so on and so
forth. But one thing's for sure, he still supports giving weapons to Israel.
There's nothing in the constitution that does that. And they can have a
cease fire tomorrow if the Biden administration would stop its fatuous nonsense saying well,
you know, they get asked questions, they say, hey, you know
these weapons you're given the Israeli government, they're using them to kill innocent women
and kids. The Israelis have held hostages without any trial whatsoever, women and
teenage kids, hundreds a year for years. If the Gosen administration of Hamas
were to claim that they were engaging in operations and slaughtering even more than got
killed on October seventh, both between Hamas and because of the IDF forces who
weren't distinguishing between Hamas and innocent people. If the Hamas government there so called
government were to invade Israel and slaughter the way that the Israelis have invaded with
the same argument that they're going after the hostages that the Israelis women and teenage
kids, thirteen fourteen year old kids that they've been holding without trial, what
would happen. It's the same argument, except in this case, it's the
occupying force of Israel in Gaza and all that area that they've already taken.
That's claiming they have a so called right to self defense. No, you
don't. No state has any rights. First of all, they're abstract entities,
they're not people. And second of all, they don't have a right
to defense when they're the aggressive party. How do you get a right to
defense? And I bring this up on the anarchist side. No soldier holding
a weapon that was put together and given to him through taxation has a right
to use it for his self defense. That's ill gotten goods, that's fruit
or the poisonous tree. You don't have any moral right to use something you've
stolen and claim that you're engaging in self defense. You're a criminal. So
I think Donald Trump I'd love to give him a pass, but unfortunately his
son in law, Jared Kushner, was at Harvard recently and indicated and this
is the most I've ever seen Jared Kushner speak. I'd never really been exposed
to this guy much before this. Jared Kushner at Harvard is talking about waterfront
property. This is Donald Trump's son in law talking about how valuable the property
is. Now, I've got a mixture of things here from Jared Kushner in
Harvard, plus some of the good the folks doing good work. I disagree
with him in so many ways at the young Turks and others who brought up
some very valid moral real points about what's going on here and if this is,
if this is, and Jared Kushner is very good friends with Benjaminett and
Yahoo by the way, so watch this. I think you'll find this stunning.
Here we go Goss's waterfund property. It could be very valuable too,
if people would focus on kind of building up, you know, livelihoods.
So I think that it's a little bit of an unfortunate situation there. I
think from Israel's perspective, I would do my best to move the people out
and then clean it up. I think proactively recognizing a Palestinian state would essentially
be rewarding an act of terror. I mean, are we at all surprised
that those sociopathic comments are coming out of the mouth of Jared Kushner, Donald
Trump's son in law, of course, who was at Harvard engaging in conversation
about the ongoing war in Gaza and more importantly, what should happen to Gaza
following this brutal war that's been carried out by the Israeli government and the IDF.
Now throughout the interview, he conflated terrorists with Palestinian civilians, favorite tactic
that I've noticed on social media among those who want to provide cover for anything
that Israel does. And he clearly supports the idea of pushing Palestinians out of
Gaza, which can be described as ethnic cleansing if I'm not mistaken, Jank,
Yeah, that's actually the very definition of ethnic cleansing. And well this
he put a cherry on top so we could steal their land. Oh okay,
well, thank you for clarifying. So just unbelievable, unbelievable. And
again, you know, I disagree with Young Church so much, but I
want to give them big props. They've been doing great work. The folks
at the Gray Zone are doing fantastic work. Redacted doing awesome work. Max
Bloemahal, Aaron Mante excellent, excellent work. And just to break up this
a little bit, I want to thank right away, want to thank let
me see Andromeda one tip ten dollars guard since deficits don't matter. There should
be no tax for social security. Lol. Oh boy, thank you so
much. Andrameda, thank you so much. And Amos pool one hundred dollars.
Thanks guard, you're killing it. Blessings to David and family. Thank
you, thank you, Thank you. Boy. What a time to be
here, What a great time. You're all wonderful, awesome. All right,
let's go back now, because there are some points I'd like to bring
up. They're obviously bringing up some of these points that I would bring up.
I don't want to break it up too much here and just continue here
and said, why don't we go to our first video and we'll dig right
in. It's unfortunate that nobody's taking the refugees. But also, now I'm
gonna pause it right there again, not only is this an amazing usurpation of
the rights of those people and their families in that area, but then this
guy's got the gall to then say, yeah, it's just a given that
they should be gone, right, and then he adds to that the assumption
that he can say for people in other countries, it's unfortunate that they're not
taking the refugees. What stinking prerogative. Do you have to tell anybody that
they've got to take refugees, Jared, are you gonna take them in your
house? Or are you gonna have Benjamin Netahu stopped by like he does.
It's just incredible, absolutely incredible, Like he can tell people in Egypt that
they've got to take refugees. That it. I mean, look, we've
got we've got the refugees being brought in by so many different politicians around the
world all over the place, right, so called refugees. Where they getting
the money to travel? Oh? Yeah, they're getting ten thousand dollars debit
cards from the mayor of New York now on other people's dimes. Just incredible
right off the bat. Fears on the part of Arabs, and I'm sure
you talk to a lot of them who think once Gazin's leave Gaza and yea,
who's never going to let them back in? Maybe, but I'm not
sure there's much left of Gaza at this point. So you know, if
you think about even the construct, like you know, Gaza, Gaza was
not really a historical precedent, right, it was the result of a war.
Right, you had tribes that were in different places and Gaza became a
thing. Egypt, you know, used to Gaza became a thing. Absolutely
ahistorical, doesn't know what he's talking about. We'll show you more. There's
a lot more here on it. And then you know, over time you
had different governments that came in different ways. So you have another war.
You know, usually when wars happen, you know, borders are changed historically
over time, borders are changed historically over time. On that note, so
if you're just listening in audio, now we're switching over to Counterpoints because they
bring up this video as well, and they have some very salient points to
bring up at Counterpoints. Ryan, it was when you were talking about how
Nana was making the point about having people who can string English sentences together,
it reminded me that Jared kushnertn string sentences together. He was stringing those sentences
together. And interview with the Guardian, and there is video of a fascinating
exchange between the Guardian and Jared Kushner about Gaza. Let's take a look at
that Syria when there's refugees. Turkey took them, Europe took them, Jordan
took them for whatever reason. Here in Gaza, there's refugees from the fighting
from an offensive attack that was staged from Gaza. Israel's going in to do
you know, a long term deterrence mission, and it's just it's unfortunate that
nobody's taking the refugees. But also there are real fears on the part of
Arabs. And I'm sure you talk to a lot of them who think once
Gazin's leave Gazatya, who's never gonna let them back in? Maybe, but
I'm not sure there's much left of Gaza at this point. So, you
know, if you think about even the construct, like you know, Gaza,
Gaza was not really a historical precedent, right, it was the result
of a war. Right, you had tribes that were in different places than
Gaza became a thing. Egypt, you know, used to run it,
and then you know, over time you had different governments that came in different
ways. So you have another war. You know, usually with wars.
So first I just want to say, you know, I don't want I
don't want to be too assumptive here, but when I watch this man,
I see a person who is very comfortable with certain terms that he's accepted.
I see a sort of robotic almost And I mentioned this on my show.
It's it's almost a childlike robotic attitude of I'm using terms that I've been told,
and I'm just pushing forward in this sphere of operation where it's perfectly acceptable
to do this and manage these other people's lives, destroy their lives, eventually
wipe them out and take them out of there. And for whatever reason,
seriously he says that let's get a little more here happen. You know,
borders are changed historically over time, and so my sense is is I would
say, how do we deal with the terror threat that is there so that
it cannot be a threat to Israel or to Egypt? Right. I think
that both sides are spending a fortune on military I think either side really wants
to have, you know, a terrorist organization enclave right between them in Gaza's
waterfund property. It could be very valuable too if people would focus on kind
of building up, you know, livelihoods. You think about all the money
that's gone into this tunnel network and into all the munitions, if that would
have gone into education or innovation. Biden should recognize the Palestinian Authority unilaterally as
a state and MBS should go to Jerusale like Egyptian President Unwar Sedet did in
nineteen seventy seven, and he should say I'll normalize with Israel, I'll recognize
West Jerusalem as your capital, and I'll even pay to rebuild Gaza. If
you recognize a Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital, what do you
think good? I don't think that's a good idea. I think that there's
certain elements of it that are correct. I think proactively recognizing a Palestinian state
would essentially be rewarding an act of terror. Waterfront property, he said if
the money from the tunnels would have been redirected, I think he said towards
education and innovation, But it was in the context actually talking about how you
could read about Gaza in to quote, very valuable waterfront property. Ryan,
what's your reaction then? Well, there was also that line he had where
he said, for whatever reason, there's refugees, okay, for whatever reason.
Interesting then he also said that Gaza is a construct. Like so just
googled to make sure. Wikipedia says the known history of Gaza that spans four
thousand years and POMPEII took it at one point Alexander the Great took it at
one point. In fact, the IDF has tragically destroyed archaeological sites that are
some of the most kind of important to archaeology in the world, and have
destroyed buildings that are from the sixth and seventh century just irreplaceable and tragic destruction.
So the act so true, so true, and of course the history
goes way back there. If you want to see really good in depth information
on that, go to check out Grand Theft World Richard Grove and Tony Meyer's
Sunday nights starting usually around nine thirty in the evening, maybe a little bit
after that as they get things set up. You can check about on Rock
Finn. You can follow Richard at Tragedy and Hope on X at Tragedy and
Hope on x Excellent excellent work from those guys, going through a lot of
those clips and really just incredible and I'd love to get your thoughts on that
as well as we look at some of the things here. Octospock Okay,
so we've got He says it is fine for the Gaza citizens to claim ignorance
of the terrorist operation there tunnels, weapons areas where missile attacks on Israel originate
from what I call them terrorist supporters. Well, a lot of the tunnels
were already created by the Israelis. And you know, it's a matter of
I think whether or not one thinks that these people are defending themselves against Israeli
aggression and being trapped there, and then from there, I think psychologically a
lot of people start to say, well, the citizens this, I don't
agree with this. Well, the citizens of country X are represented by the
government, so therefore they are legitimate targets. We hear this all the time.
It's the we the people canard that they sell us that somehow the government
is us, that that is self governance, which is not right. Self
governance is I control myself, you control yourself? Right? And that is
the same argument that the Time Square bomber said, and I mightt to mention
it on David Show when they asked the Times Square bomber, who of course
was caught before he detonated any bombs, how do you plead, he said,
guilty, guilty, one hundred times guilty. And if the United States
government continues to do what it does in the Middle East, there will be
more innocent civilians killed by people who are reacting to what the United States does
in the Middle East because they buy into the same canard that the government somehow
is the people as well, or the people are the government. They're they're
interchangeable, which is not right. So that is a problem and I think
that unfortunately, as James writes here, they cut off Gaza's food assistance two
months before October seventh. And don't forget in the last budget where they did
again the three point eight billion dollar handout to Israel. For they've been doing
this for ten years now, and you didn't hear much about that in this
nation state with all this debt, but they gave Israel again. It's three
point eight billion dollars. And again for I don't support the government handing anything
out to anybody, right, but so many of the politicians there who typically
vote for the UN Relief Agency to get money where it has been giving food
aid to the Palestinians for years, the vast bulk of the food aid comes
from the UNRWA, right, Well, guess what they didn't fund it this
time. Evidently the Israeli lobby might might have had something to do with that.
And let's go with a little more because it's not just Gaza. Israel
kills nine more in South Lebanon, including more paramedics. This from Jason dits
on Anti War yesterday. The first strikes were against the border village of tire
Harfa, killing five. The identities of those killed aren't certain, although Hesbelah
said two of its paramedics were killed in tire Hafa. The attack that killed
the Hesbela paramedics was reportedly against a vehicle for the Islamic Health Organization. That
wasn't the end to the attacks on paramedics, as Israel followed up with attacks
on the border town of Nakora, hitting a group of paramedics near a cafeteria,
killing at least four and wounding six others. And don't forget the un
relief people that they killed in a food tent last week, the IDF in
southern Gaza. That is the area where they told the innocent people go to
Rafa, go to southern Gaza and you'll be safe there. And they've been
bombing it now coming up on four weeks, and they're gonna put ground troops
in there. In the meantime, we also know that the United States government
is basically saying yeah, you know, we expect them to operate a certain
way, but we're going to continue giving the weapons. Amazing, just incredible,
it doesn't stop. And finally, everybody, I want to mention to
you it feel free if you want to comment on this, this Middle Eastern
subject, and if you think I'm being too critical of Donald Trump, feel
free. But I do think that Donald Trump is really exposing a callous aspect
of his personality. Wolfgang Cohen inside Rofin says this, wake up Christian Zionists.
You support genocide and it will soon come home to roost. And Angus
Mustang, Thanks Angus, great work on your part all the time. DC
is an Israeli settlement now. Octosbach says, when such deep disagreements exist and
have for thousands of years, very serious actions are necessary. Does the good
guy always win? Not always, but that is how countries settle such matters.
Well, First of all, I would mention to you that the idea
of the nation state is immoral, The political state is immoral. Forcing people
to pay for somebody else's defense is immoral. Calling Israeli's actions in the Middle
East is immoral because they're not the European Jews who came down there are not
Semitic, most of them. It's not anti Semitica. Course, just as
a side note to criticize policies of a polis, and I would say that
all political systems are illegitimate because they're operated through force. So I think to
bring up the long term conflict between these people, I would go back as
far as the eighteen hundreds, when a group of Zionists, especially connected with
the British Empire, started to make some moves to try to grab land that
wasn't their land. And then as the British Empire crumbled after World War One,
they pushed it more and they had an agreement that came out with the
Battle for Agreement, and then later an agreement basically imposed on people there from
the British Empire and agreements from other empires that were collapsing. Then you saw
World War Two and the rise of even more internationalism over the nation states imposing
that nation state. So I don't see how anybody can argue that the Israeli
government is valid, that any state is valid, or that the Israeli government
is valid there and especially after its decades of expansion, and it's absolutely Hegemontic
control over those people there. And I understand there's been a lot of back
and forth with attacks and innocent people being killed on both sides. But if
you look at the initiation of the conflict we're experiencing right now, it goes
right back to the people who wanted to establish a Jewish state in there,
taking away other people's land. And that's what we're dealing with. We're dealing
with their kids, their grandkids. And in some cases, some of those
people might be still be alive who are around in the nineteen fifties, nineteen
sixties during some of these conflicts like the Nakba and things like that, so
their memories I see very little difference. I see a very high equivalency between
what was done to the American Indians and what was done to the Palestinians,
especially with all the agreements the American Indians got from the US government that were
then breached. So I'll give you this, where's my eron mate quote.
I've got it over here to finish off the Israeli stuff. Here it is,
this is Aaron Mate. Earlier this month, Joe Biden said that an
Israeli assault on Rafa would be a red line. Now Biden's Pentagon is helping
Israel plan an assault on Rafa. His red line is a green light headline
US pushes to shape Israel's RAFA operation. Not stop it. Good job,
Aaron Matte. Biden warns of red line for Israel over Rafa. Hmm.
Those don't seem to comport. And again, I don't see why I should
be drawn into this. You know, one of the points that I brought
up to a philosophy class a long time ago was the you know, the
classic philosophical question that's brought up by consequentialism, by utilitarianism, by a lack
of morality in philosophy, and that is and you can find this on What
Is It? It's published by PBS. Have these terrible videos. There's two
brothers, the Green Brothers Crash Course philosophy, and they had one and I
mentioned this once before on my shore a couple of times on Liberty Conspiracy.
But it's good to sort of settle in and comfortably discuss this, I think
because the argument that was posed at the beginning of this program was, you
know, Batman always gets the joker and he has a strict no kill policy.
So Batman gets the Joker, they put him in Arkham Asylum, and
then he escapes and kills more people. Isn't Batman kind of responsible for those
desks because he didn't kill the Joker? So that's what starts the video.
So on that question, you answer, of course, no, the Joker's
responsible for his own actions. The Batman is not responsible if he doesn't kill
the Joker and the Joker engages in more violence and crimes against people, the
Batman has no responsibility to defend people. And if that were the case,
and he had a moral responsibility to defend people as seen by someone else like
the Green Brothers in this video from PBS, then he would have to operate
all the time trying to stop bad guys all the time, and he wouldn't
have a choice. He's being enslaved by their philosophical and their philosophical mandates,
right, So it's ridiculous, it's utterly stupid. But in addition to that,
inside the video, they say, yeah, so imagine you're in the
jungle on a tour, You're with nineteen other people, and a warlord captures
you with a bunch of other armed warlords, and he puts a gun in
your hand makes it that you can't turn anywhere except towards those people, and
says he is going to kill all of those people unless you shoot one of
those people. What would you do? So I asked the students, and
I got to say, I got some great students. This is a couple
of years ago in this class. One of the students Frank Awesome, smart,
super kid. He says, you don't participate, you know, And
people like, oh, you turn the gun against the guy, you know,
the warlord. No, you can't do that. He says, you
let them kill you. I'm like, exactly, that's exactly it. Now
we're not even talking from a Christian perspective here, we're just talking about,
you know, sort of a basic innate sense that people might have or talking
it through and you find commonality with people here. But the idea is that
you are still making a choice, whether it's under duress or not, and
it's not a greater good, which is the so called greater good for the
greater number of philosophy of Jeremy Bentham. He and his brother came up with
the panopticon idea and other utilitarians that John Stuart Mill tried to clean up a
little bit with his book on Liberty is a pamphlet in late eighteen hundreds.
But consequentialist theory, utilitarian theory is the greatest good for the greatest number.
Well, first of all, that's unsupportable. It has an insupportable logical foundation
and an illogical foundation because good is defined subjectively. What is good and what
is bad? Right now, in addition to that, you have morality.
Right, so you have valuation about what benefits my life or doesn't benefit my
life. That's up to me, that's up to you. I can't tell
you, right, that's an imposition. But in addition to that, you
also have the morality of things. So even when and this you know,
this is a difficult thing. But many Christian people, if you look at
Tolstoy, you look at Dostoevsky, they made these choices. They knew that
in the end, even under duress, you still have a choice. The
choice is to go with God, even if they take your life or not.
And unfortunately, what tends to happen is people they get into these abstract
equations or false equivalencies, and they'll say, well, wouldn't it be better
to shoot one person to save the nineteen. First of all, how do
you know you can even trust the warlord on a practical level. Second of
all, you are taking the life and it's not this It's exactly the same
thing as the soldier saying, well, I was just I was just following
orders. No, you have a choice, and yes you will suffer the
consequences of not making somebody else suffer. You will be the direct person who
suffers. But you have a choice. Even when an evildoer is going to
do wrong to you, or if you do something wrong to someone else he's
going to do, won't do wrong to you. So at the end of
that video, that PBS video, they say, of course, the answer
is you know you would take the life to save the nineteen, and Batman
should kill the joker. That's what your tax money goes towards. That's what
public health is all about, sacrificing the one. But again, logically it's
unsupportable because there's no such thing as a thing called public. The public,
it's not a person. It's all individuals retain their individuality even when government tries
to group them under some umbrella. The term public is just a word for
a group of individuals who never blend in and wax together turn into some giant
blob. They retain their individuality. And so when the government can target one
individual for the betterment so called according to the government, defined by them of
all, well, that means that every individual under that government umbrella is now
a target and potentially at risk, which then undercuts the very argument of so
called public health. And it's the same thing for the general welfare clause of
the US Constitution. There is no such thing as government defined general welfare.
Welfare is subjectively determined by the individual. I can't tell you what your welfare
is, and you can't tell me. And so when they come up even
in the Constitution, when they come up with the general welfare, the only
thing that would contribute to the general welfare is the government saying I'll leave you
alone. That allows the general welfare to be expressed through society, through our
voluntary interaction, and through the market. That I think is very important to
keep in mind. And so, as I brought up in the first hour
of the show, the economics and the morality, they're tied together, and
in my opinion, and we'll talk about this a little bit more when we
go into the environment and the climate Canard. I think it's very important to
realize how many areas where they're telling people that this can be sacrificed for this
reason, This can be sacrificed for this reason. And we'll finish off with
this tomorrow. We'll talk about this some more. Surveillance in the United States
and also in Canada, we'll discuss the surveillance state how much they're pushing,
and also in Scotland, the police receiving hate crime training to go after anyone
who shares flagged content online or in person if deemed so called offensive. We'll
talk all about that. And in addition to that, before we go,
I do want to mention also that yesterday was a birthday and if you're familiar
with the Silk Road, don't know. If you're familiar with the Silk Road,
his name is Ross Olbrich. I'll show you a little bit of something.
His birthday yesterday, fortieth birthday in prison. Ross Olbrich is celebrating his
fortieth birthday in prison today on March twenty seventh. The darknet entrepreneur has been
controversially imprisoned for nearly eleven years in the United States since he was twenty nine.
His mom has done great work. I think David interviewed his mom.
Ross Olbrich, a former physics student, founded silk Road in twenty eleven,
an online marketplace that operated on the tour network, so you can't sell things
to willing customers. And yes, there could have been some criminal activity,
drugs, illicit goods and services. Perhaps people were engaging in selling prostitution,
Perhaps there were other things going on there. Ross Olbrick was not engaged in
those things. And ross Albrick was I think one of the first targets in
the assault against cryptocurrency, bitcoin in particular, and when you think about freedom
of exchange, they're imprisoning him for life. He didn't harm anyone, and
yet the United States will automatically impoverish your children to the tune of another three

They created common Core, dumbed down our children. They created Common Past to
track and control us Commons project to make sure the commoners own nothing and the
communist future they see. The common man is simple, unsophisticated, ordinary,
but each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God.
That is what we have in common. That is what they want to take
away. Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation. They desire
to know everything about us, while they hide everything from us. It's time
to turn that around and expose what they want to hide. Please share the
information and links you'll find at the Davidnightshow dot com. Thank you for listening,
Thank you for sharing. If you can't support us financially, please keep
