WEBVTT 1 00:00:07.120 --> 00:00:10.439 Joining us now, by the way, is an Rock War veteran, 2 00:00:10.759 --> 00:00:14.320 Tony Ardeban of Why is Wolf, Gold and Silver? And 3 00:00:14.560 --> 00:00:16.960 you can get there going through David Knight dot Gold. 4 00:00:17.079 --> 00:00:19.600 We'll get Tony's take on what's happening with gold and 5 00:00:19.679 --> 00:00:24.519 the economy, what is coming next? Thank you for joining us, Tony, 6 00:00:25.039 --> 00:00:25.480 good to have. 7 00:00:25.440 --> 00:00:27.559 Great to be back. David, good to see you again. 8 00:00:27.719 --> 00:00:29.160 Thank you. It's good to see you. 9 00:00:29.239 --> 00:00:32.479 But you know, we have this and they had Trump yesterday, 10 00:00:32.560 --> 00:00:35.159 you know, changing very few hours. 11 00:00:35.280 --> 00:00:36.240 You know, first he's going to leave. 12 00:00:36.240 --> 00:00:38.880 And I was joking about it yesterday saying he needs 13 00:00:38.880 --> 00:00:42.159 to get up and say, I came, I saw, I ran. 14 00:00:42.399 --> 00:00:46.280 I heard that. That's really good. But that's going He's 15 00:00:46.280 --> 00:00:48.640 going to get really tough with everybody. So what's going on? 16 00:00:48.640 --> 00:00:50.759 Are they going to sacrifice a bunch of soldiers and 17 00:00:51.520 --> 00:00:53.759 to his car, guyland the tank? What do you think 18 00:00:53.840 --> 00:00:54.439 is going to happen? 19 00:00:54.880 --> 00:00:56.920 Well, it's just like you mentioned yesterday, and the whole 20 00:00:57.079 --> 00:01:02.799 concept of taco. You know, Trump always chickens out. That 21 00:01:02.880 --> 00:01:06.959 may be dangerous here because we don't know exactly who's 22 00:01:06.959 --> 00:01:10.200 pulling the strings here. I saw a story that even 23 00:01:10.280 --> 00:01:15.000 Michael Savage has distanced himself from Trump. He has to 24 00:01:15.000 --> 00:01:18.120 cut tight, says, somebody's whispering in his ear. And well, 25 00:01:18.159 --> 00:01:21.799 that's been true from the very beginning. But this seems 26 00:01:23.200 --> 00:01:25.519 I think even it looks like it's torturing him in 27 00:01:25.560 --> 00:01:30.239 some way. He's vacillating more than usual. And you go 28 00:01:30.280 --> 00:01:34.000 back to the beginning of this term as president, when 29 00:01:34.040 --> 00:01:37.079 he sworen after twenty twenty five. You know, he had 30 00:01:37.079 --> 00:01:39.239 that run in when they don't know what the f 31 00:01:39.280 --> 00:01:42.599 they're doing. Remember that when he's talking about Israeli Iran relations, 32 00:01:42.599 --> 00:01:47.400 and now he doesn't know. So that's that we're really 33 00:01:47.599 --> 00:01:50.599 in dangerous territory. I mean, as you mentioned, the cost 34 00:01:50.680 --> 00:01:56.439 of the war, the rise and energy prices, and I 35 00:01:56.480 --> 00:02:00.319 think reputation more than anything, just like our standing, how 36 00:02:00.400 --> 00:02:04.400 we've perceived to negotiate, whether we're an honest broker. I mean, 37 00:02:04.400 --> 00:02:08.240 that's long been held in question, but I don't think 38 00:02:08.240 --> 00:02:10.479 there's any question anymore. We can't be trusted as far 39 00:02:10.520 --> 00:02:13.080 as our diplomacy is concerned, and so all of that 40 00:02:13.159 --> 00:02:16.879 is out the window. NATO, which I don't support, by 41 00:02:16.879 --> 00:02:19.439 the way, because last time I checked, the Soviet Union 42 00:02:19.479 --> 00:02:22.159 collapsed in nineteen ninety one. So I don't think we 43 00:02:22.199 --> 00:02:27.639 need NATO anymore. But NATO is falling apart, and so 44 00:02:27.719 --> 00:02:31.520 the entire world order and everything that's built post Cold 45 00:02:31.560 --> 00:02:35.800 War is disintegrating, and this seems to be a push 46 00:02:35.840 --> 00:02:36.800 to accelerate that. 47 00:02:37.159 --> 00:02:38.879 Well, he's the one who's doing this. I mean, he's 48 00:02:38.879 --> 00:02:41.919 the one who said he's going to attack the country 49 00:02:41.919 --> 00:02:43.919 of a fellow NATO country. I mean, you know what 50 00:02:43.960 --> 00:02:48.159 happens if he attacks Greenland, which is technically Denmark's territory. 51 00:02:48.400 --> 00:02:51.280 We invoke the article for everybody to go to war 52 00:02:51.319 --> 00:02:56.680 against the attacker, with that attacking ourselves a circular firing 53 00:02:56.719 --> 00:02:57.960 squad for NATO. It's a. 54 00:02:59.800 --> 00:03:02.159 It is crazy and he is crazy. 55 00:03:02.240 --> 00:03:06.159 Quite frankly, Ty Cobb, as former lawyer, came out and said, folks, 56 00:03:06.280 --> 00:03:09.000 let's just accept the fact this guy is crazy, and. 57 00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:10.520 Let's invote the twenty fifth Amendment. 58 00:03:11.039 --> 00:03:14.120 I had a listener who sorry, go ahead, No, I 59 00:03:14.280 --> 00:03:16.039 just totally agree with that. I mean, I think that's 60 00:03:16.120 --> 00:03:17.800 going to talk about that on my show today. I 61 00:03:18.280 --> 00:03:20.000 don't think there's any coming back from this. I mean, 62 00:03:20.280 --> 00:03:24.759 it's bad when you start hoping for a democratic sweep 63 00:03:24.800 --> 00:03:27.639 of House and Senate so we can get these impeachment 64 00:03:27.759 --> 00:03:30.400 hearings underway. Yeah, and just get the investigations well, and 65 00:03:30.520 --> 00:03:33.680 the entire regime needs to be up into This is 66 00:03:33.919 --> 00:03:39.840 a terrible display of electoral consequence in this country, maybe 67 00:03:39.840 --> 00:03:40.919 the worst we've ever seen. 68 00:03:41.039 --> 00:03:42.960 Oh yes, that's absolutely yeah. 69 00:03:42.960 --> 00:03:45.000 I had a listener who sent me an article is 70 00:03:45.000 --> 00:03:49.960 written by a former UK ambassador. His idea was that, look, 71 00:03:50.000 --> 00:03:52.759 Trump's not stupid. He knows what he's doing. He's just 72 00:03:52.879 --> 00:03:57.240 incredibly narcissistic and greedy. He's doing this to enrich himself 73 00:03:57.240 --> 00:03:58.599 and his donor owners and that. 74 00:03:58.520 --> 00:03:59.800 Type of thing. And I agree with that. 75 00:04:00.080 --> 00:04:02.199 I mean, he's looking at it and trying to as 76 00:04:02.240 --> 00:04:04.240 an ambassador, what are you going to do. You're going 77 00:04:04.280 --> 00:04:07.520 to try to figure out the psychology of these people 78 00:04:07.680 --> 00:04:10.319 as heads of state that you're dealing with, right, I 79 00:04:10.439 --> 00:04:13.080 just look at the policies and as I said, you 80 00:04:13.120 --> 00:04:15.520 know this back and forth. The double thing that you 81 00:04:15.560 --> 00:04:18.240 get from the Maga cult is that first of all, 82 00:04:18.279 --> 00:04:21.920 he's a forty chess master. Secondly, he doesn't know what's happening. 83 00:04:21.959 --> 00:04:24.040 He's being deceived by the people that he picked to 84 00:04:24.079 --> 00:04:25.879 be in his own cabinet, and he can't do anything 85 00:04:25.920 --> 00:04:27.720 about it. It's like, well, you have to make up 86 00:04:27.720 --> 00:04:29.759 your mind. It's one or the other. And I said, 87 00:04:29.800 --> 00:04:32.160 for the longest time, I said, I don't think that 88 00:04:32.319 --> 00:04:35.079 he is stupid. I think he's evil. I don't think 89 00:04:35.120 --> 00:04:40.000 he's a genius. Because this guy is a typical liar. 90 00:04:40.399 --> 00:04:43.399 He can't keep his story straight and he has no 91 00:04:43.720 --> 00:04:46.240 respect what's over for other people. That's way he keeps 92 00:04:46.439 --> 00:04:49.839 coming up with such absurd lies. Like we saw during 93 00:04:49.879 --> 00:04:53.199 the Minnesota Ice episodes. He had the people from the 94 00:04:53.199 --> 00:04:54.759 New York Times in there, and he was sticking to 95 00:04:54.800 --> 00:04:57.519 the story that he just like Christine Om, they just 96 00:04:57.600 --> 00:05:00.279 make up a story. Even though everybody had seen the 97 00:05:00.360 --> 00:05:02.920 videos of what happened. They just make up their own 98 00:05:02.959 --> 00:05:06.639 story as if nobody else had seen any video and 99 00:05:06.959 --> 00:05:08.959 had nothing to do with what was happening there. And 100 00:05:08.959 --> 00:05:10.199 they said, well, let's get out of the tape. I 101 00:05:10.240 --> 00:05:13.759 must watch it. And so he sees the tape evidently 102 00:05:13.800 --> 00:05:15.639 for the first time, of what happened with the shooting, 103 00:05:16.160 --> 00:05:18.279 and he just changes the story of the subject and 104 00:05:18.319 --> 00:05:20.240 moves on to something else, which is what he does 105 00:05:20.879 --> 00:05:23.319 on a day to day basis. Right when he's finally 106 00:05:23.360 --> 00:05:26.399 exposed with the lies, and they collapse. He just changes 107 00:05:26.439 --> 00:05:29.079 the topic and he goes starts another fight somewhere else. 108 00:05:30.879 --> 00:05:34.519 Yeah, it seems that this is probably his waterloo as 109 00:05:34.519 --> 00:05:37.680 a narcissist, like a malignant narcissist, the likes of which 110 00:05:37.680 --> 00:05:40.759 we've never really seen before. And I mean, the history 111 00:05:40.759 --> 00:05:43.959 of why you get the term narcissists is narcisst You know, 112 00:05:44.000 --> 00:05:46.160 he fell in love with his own image, looking into 113 00:05:46.199 --> 00:05:48.600 the river and dove in trying to embrace it and drown. 114 00:05:48.720 --> 00:05:53.360 You know that it's always there's always a high price 115 00:05:53.399 --> 00:05:55.319 to pay for that sort of thinking and that sort 116 00:05:55.360 --> 00:05:59.000 of character. Unfortunately, we're tied to this, like the entire 117 00:05:59.040 --> 00:06:03.319 country because things had gotten so bad in our electoral politics. 118 00:06:03.319 --> 00:06:07.040 As you know, David, that the disruption that he caused 119 00:06:07.680 --> 00:06:10.680 was so attractive, just you know, telling the mainstream media 120 00:06:10.720 --> 00:06:13.560 that they're fake news and you know, even the stuff 121 00:06:13.680 --> 00:06:15.879 is A veteran I chuckled at the fact that he 122 00:06:16.560 --> 00:06:19.839 came out and said about John McCain, I like people 123 00:06:19.879 --> 00:06:21.920 that aren't captured, you know when he's when he made 124 00:06:21.920 --> 00:06:24.399 that remark, and I thought, well, that's so over the top. 125 00:06:24.439 --> 00:06:27.360 It would have destroyed anyone else. But people were so 126 00:06:27.480 --> 00:06:29.199 fed up that it was like, I'll just I'll go, 127 00:06:29.480 --> 00:06:31.959 I'll hitch my wagon to this guy. Just destroy this, 128 00:06:32.199 --> 00:06:36.319 you know, yeah, this mechanism of establishment that is choking us, 129 00:06:36.360 --> 00:06:38.839 and he became part of it. So now it's just 130 00:06:38.920 --> 00:06:45.160 this hybrid monster of establishment and narcissism and self aggrandizement 131 00:06:45.399 --> 00:06:48.600 and self enrichment, and it's so disgusting. I mean you, 132 00:06:48.720 --> 00:06:50.959 I mean you and I have distanced ourselves from this 133 00:06:51.199 --> 00:06:52.240 long long ago. 134 00:06:52.360 --> 00:06:54.800 I mean yeah, I remember looking at it and thinking, 135 00:06:54.839 --> 00:06:56.800 you know, well, this guy is going to be a 136 00:06:56.839 --> 00:06:59.800 real monkey wrench into Washington, d C. You know, he's 137 00:06:59.800 --> 00:07:02.680 going to be an agent of chaos. And he was 138 00:07:02.720 --> 00:07:04.680 for a short period of time. And then what happened 139 00:07:04.839 --> 00:07:10.199 was he is really attached to these establishment figures. He 140 00:07:10.279 --> 00:07:12.720 was put in there by these establishment figures. So he 141 00:07:12.759 --> 00:07:16.639 became an agent of chaos to the global economy, which 142 00:07:16.680 --> 00:07:18.920 is really you know what we were focused on here 143 00:07:18.959 --> 00:07:21.800 with gold, isn't it. You know, this chaos that is 144 00:07:22.279 --> 00:07:24.680 unfolding on a regular basis. It's kind of interesting to 145 00:07:24.720 --> 00:07:27.360 watch him manipulate the markets, and we've seen a lot 146 00:07:27.439 --> 00:07:32.160 of market manipulation in terms of big bets placed just 147 00:07:32.199 --> 00:07:35.399 before he makes a fake statement, you know, and he 148 00:07:35.759 --> 00:07:37.600 you know, he makes a statement to move the market 149 00:07:37.639 --> 00:07:41.959 in one direction, but somebody made a big bet on 150 00:07:42.000 --> 00:07:44.600 something that nobody could have seen foreseen what he was 151 00:07:44.639 --> 00:07:46.720 going to say. And then he does it again in 152 00:07:46.759 --> 00:07:48.600 the opposite direction. Then he does it again. He just 153 00:07:48.720 --> 00:07:51.120 keeps doing it and getting away with it. And it 154 00:07:51.160 --> 00:07:55.879 turns out now that Warpete was trying to place some 155 00:07:56.040 --> 00:07:59.680 investments on war stocks with some people on black Rock. 156 00:08:00.160 --> 00:08:02.120 They refuse to do it because they could see this 157 00:08:02.240 --> 00:08:05.600 is going to be a legal quagmire mess of insider trading, 158 00:08:05.639 --> 00:08:06.600 so they refuse to do it. 159 00:08:06.680 --> 00:08:08.000 So who knows. 160 00:08:08.000 --> 00:08:09.720 Maybe he was the one who went on to these 161 00:08:09.759 --> 00:08:13.439 different markets, but this is the way he's manipulating the market. 162 00:08:13.639 --> 00:08:17.560 But the reality is Tony, is that eventually the markets 163 00:08:17.600 --> 00:08:21.199 are reacting to everything that he is doing. He is 164 00:08:21.240 --> 00:08:24.199 playing them like a fiddle. But at some point and 165 00:08:24.240 --> 00:08:26.399 it's we're getting there now. We just had yesterday a 166 00:08:26.399 --> 00:08:30.439 how nine thousand California said in La diesel is seven 167 00:08:30.519 --> 00:08:34.039 dollars and seventy nine cents the gallon. The reality of 168 00:08:34.080 --> 00:08:37.360 what Trump is doing with this chaos program is going 169 00:08:37.399 --> 00:08:40.480 to be in everybody's faces, and there's not any way 170 00:08:40.559 --> 00:08:43.159 that at that point in time, that he can come 171 00:08:43.240 --> 00:08:45.720 up with some happy story, or that the Federal Reserve 172 00:08:45.799 --> 00:08:47.399 can come up with some kind of a happy story, 173 00:08:47.519 --> 00:08:49.679 it's going to have a big effect. And so the 174 00:08:49.679 --> 00:08:52.440 fundamentals that are there, the things that have been driving gold, 175 00:08:52.559 --> 00:08:58.960 are much stronger now, and eventually all of this nonsense 176 00:08:59.039 --> 00:09:01.799 of Trump put stories out there that's eventually going to 177 00:09:01.799 --> 00:09:05.000 be swamped by the reality of what he's actually doing. 178 00:09:07.279 --> 00:09:10.240 Yeah, I believe. Just my analysis is this is some 179 00:09:10.279 --> 00:09:13.360 sort of misdirection. I would say, on a timeline, if 180 00:09:13.399 --> 00:09:15.200 we were to liken it to any other time, it 181 00:09:15.200 --> 00:09:18.200 would be this is a December of twenty nineteen, because 182 00:09:18.240 --> 00:09:20.679 if you look at the headlines coming across from Europe 183 00:09:20.720 --> 00:09:23.000 and coming out of places like South Korea, they're already 184 00:09:23.039 --> 00:09:28.639 looking at energy lockdowns, like you know, the limitations on driving, 185 00:09:28.759 --> 00:09:30.159 limitations on transportation. 186 00:09:30.519 --> 00:09:31.000 That's right. 187 00:09:31.480 --> 00:09:35.120 So if that's the case, then this has been planned 188 00:09:35.679 --> 00:09:38.279 long ago. This is the second act of that of 189 00:09:38.440 --> 00:09:41.240 some kind, and we're I think we're just seeing so 190 00:09:41.360 --> 00:09:44.679 much chaos and confusion goes before it, So we're trying 191 00:09:44.679 --> 00:09:48.720 to decipher what this means geopolitically or what the policy 192 00:09:48.840 --> 00:09:51.919 is here, but perhaps all along this is just choking 193 00:09:51.960 --> 00:09:56.360 off the twenty percent of the world's oil supply on 194 00:09:56.440 --> 00:10:02.080 a useless, unnecessary, unconstitutional, evil war, and then that spoil 195 00:10:02.399 --> 00:10:05.679 spills over into the rest of the economy and everything 196 00:10:05.799 --> 00:10:10.399 from their cascades into some sort of new restriction, you know, 197 00:10:10.519 --> 00:10:13.120 some sort of new control mechanism, which is going to 198 00:10:13.200 --> 00:10:15.639 be about energy. I mean, clearly there's not going to 199 00:10:15.639 --> 00:10:18.080 be any new energy coming online. We're not going to start. 200 00:10:18.440 --> 00:10:21.039 I mean, it'll take years, even if we started today 201 00:10:21.600 --> 00:10:24.600 to try to put the amount of output to even 202 00:10:24.720 --> 00:10:28.240 come close to where we were. We were like trading 203 00:10:28.240 --> 00:10:31.840 at sixty dollars a barrel before this. I mean an 204 00:10:31.879 --> 00:10:36.879 ounce of silver for a while, for months was worth 205 00:10:36.919 --> 00:10:42.320 more than a barrel of oil. And we're in uncharted 206 00:10:42.399 --> 00:10:44.480 territory at this point. I would say, you know, as 207 00:10:44.480 --> 00:10:47.639 far as the economy is concerned, there is no certainty. 208 00:10:47.759 --> 00:10:49.679 So everything is all over the place. I mean, you 209 00:10:49.720 --> 00:10:54.360 have I saw an article from Kitko where one of 210 00:10:54.360 --> 00:10:57.440 Bloomberg's analysts said, well, I think gold and silver have 211 00:10:57.919 --> 00:11:01.440 hit their generational peak because this is just like the seventies, 212 00:11:02.039 --> 00:11:05.279 and I go, no, it's not. I mean, you can 213 00:11:05.279 --> 00:11:07.639 look at some of the factors. I mean just on 214 00:11:07.720 --> 00:11:09.799 surface level. But the debt of the US was a 215 00:11:09.840 --> 00:11:14.200 trillion dollars in nineteen seventy nine. We're thirty nine trillion 216 00:11:14.480 --> 00:11:16.960 and climbing, going about a trillion every ninety days or so. 217 00:11:17.919 --> 00:11:21.759 All the metrics are completely different, and I would say, 218 00:11:21.960 --> 00:11:26.279 you know, generational, that's not even close. I mean, Turkey 219 00:11:27.039 --> 00:11:29.840 just sold sixty tons of gold and they just did that. 220 00:11:29.919 --> 00:11:32.600 They put the gold on the market and liquidated it. 221 00:11:33.320 --> 00:11:36.159 I'm assuming to use for all sorts of other infrastructure 222 00:11:36.200 --> 00:11:40.320 and necessary projects to keep their country running. You know, 223 00:11:40.519 --> 00:11:43.840 that's what's happening. Gold is being sold and bought. By 224 00:11:43.879 --> 00:11:46.919 the way, this gold. If you look at what's the 225 00:11:46.919 --> 00:11:49.120 infrastructure that's being built, David the most one of the 226 00:11:49.200 --> 00:11:53.759 most interesting things, and it's happening quietly Singapore, Hong Kong. 227 00:11:54.200 --> 00:11:57.960 They're not only building storage facilities, they're building clearance centers 228 00:11:58.960 --> 00:12:02.879 where sovereignations you know, Belton Road Initiative, all that stuff 229 00:12:03.200 --> 00:12:07.080 can start using these off ramps that are you know, 230 00:12:07.200 --> 00:12:14.080 centralized to liquidate and purchase gold bullion, physical gold through 231 00:12:14.120 --> 00:12:17.600 the exchange. That's the new reserve currency. So whether the 232 00:12:17.679 --> 00:12:20.600 price is you know, fifty five hundred dollars announced for 233 00:12:20.600 --> 00:12:22.559 forty five hundred dollars announced or if we go back 234 00:12:22.559 --> 00:12:25.399 down to fourth out, it doesn't matter. That's the new 235 00:12:25.720 --> 00:12:29.799 world reserve currency in this chaos because trust is being 236 00:12:29.840 --> 00:12:33.320 diminished from the top down at the of the United States. 237 00:12:34.159 --> 00:12:36.279 And isn't an interesting that's what Trump is for. 238 00:12:36.840 --> 00:12:38.879 But he's signing them that he's he for the first 239 00:12:38.879 --> 00:12:43.360 time the president's going to sign the currency. He's putting 240 00:12:43.399 --> 00:12:45.879 his signature on it. So isn't that interesting He's signing 241 00:12:45.879 --> 00:12:49.799 off on the dollar like the decline of whatever, all 242 00:12:49.840 --> 00:12:53.279 that was built in the modern era. You know, since 243 00:12:53.320 --> 00:12:57.879 Bretton Woods is being i mean controlled demolition right now. 244 00:12:57.879 --> 00:12:59.679 And he wants to put his face on it, can 245 00:13:00.080 --> 00:13:03.440 member to twenty four care gold coin. I don't want that. 246 00:13:03.519 --> 00:13:05.320 By the way, don't put that in wolf pack. 247 00:13:08.519 --> 00:13:12.759 People. You talk about grifting. Just a side note, a 248 00:13:12.759 --> 00:13:15.639 lot of these places will get these one ounce silver 249 00:13:16.080 --> 00:13:18.960 trump coins or you know, they're not coins there, they're rounds, 250 00:13:19.000 --> 00:13:21.679 just silver rounds, just generic and they'll sell them for 251 00:13:21.720 --> 00:13:25.200 two or three times the price. I mean they' will 252 00:13:25.279 --> 00:13:27.559 be selling for one hundred and fifty ounce too. 253 00:13:27.559 --> 00:13:28.000 And whatever. 254 00:13:28.159 --> 00:13:29.399 Don't don't buy that stuff. 255 00:13:29.600 --> 00:13:32.240 I've seen that in the gun stores. They've got laser 256 00:13:32.240 --> 00:13:36.480 engraved guns that have Trump's face all over. It's like no, no, no, no, 257 00:13:37.240 --> 00:13:39.440 thank you, And I like you point out they sell 258 00:13:39.480 --> 00:13:42.879 it at the premium because a fool and his money 259 00:13:42.879 --> 00:13:43.679 are soon parted. 260 00:13:43.759 --> 00:13:43.960 Right. 261 00:13:45.519 --> 00:13:49.440 Well, there, it's still a demographic that is I think future, 262 00:13:49.639 --> 00:13:52.039 if there is hope, there is a future. If future 263 00:13:52.159 --> 00:13:55.399 historians look back, there's just it. It's going to be 264 00:13:55.440 --> 00:14:00.519 a strange psychological study on whatever this demographic is. It's 265 00:14:00.559 --> 00:14:03.039 a certain age group. And then Fox News viewer they 266 00:14:03.279 --> 00:14:06.480 just so tuned into like it doesn't it doesn't register 267 00:14:06.600 --> 00:14:11.279 with them that something is wrong with what's happening, you know, 268 00:14:11.399 --> 00:14:12.799 like they just can't see it. 269 00:14:13.159 --> 00:14:14.559 Well, then the thing I love it. 270 00:14:14.720 --> 00:14:17.120 First, it kind of got me angry on people looking 271 00:14:17.159 --> 00:14:20.000 at these wars and say I voted for that, And 272 00:14:20.000 --> 00:14:22.480 I just want to say these people, no, you didn't. 273 00:14:22.600 --> 00:14:24.840 That's how stupid you are. Because he was saying he 274 00:14:24.919 --> 00:14:27.000 was going to do exactly the opposite. So if you 275 00:14:27.120 --> 00:14:29.840 voted for him, you voted for exactly the opposite. That 276 00:14:29.919 --> 00:14:31.480 was what he was promising at the time. 277 00:14:31.600 --> 00:14:33.320 Stop this. I voted for it. 278 00:14:33.399 --> 00:14:35.440 Nonsense. You didn't vote for any of this stuff. He 279 00:14:35.480 --> 00:14:37.960 has violated all of his campaign promises as well as 280 00:14:37.960 --> 00:14:38.960 oath to the Constitution. 281 00:14:39.759 --> 00:14:43.120 Yeah, we hope that they have what alcoholics refer to 282 00:14:43.159 --> 00:14:45.799 as a moment of clarity. I hope that that comes soon. 283 00:14:46.440 --> 00:14:48.679 It usually comes through pain, like paint at the pump 284 00:14:48.720 --> 00:14:50.720 and then paint at the grocery store. And the fact 285 00:14:50.720 --> 00:14:53.720 that you know, you have to decide between your energy 286 00:14:53.759 --> 00:14:56.279 costs and your food. I don't want that for anyone. 287 00:14:56.320 --> 00:14:59.759 By the way, this is unnecessary that we're even here. 288 00:15:00.120 --> 00:15:03.039 I mean, there's so much opportunity right now and we're 289 00:15:03.080 --> 00:15:06.360 just squandering it, which is again, is the tell that 290 00:15:06.440 --> 00:15:09.279 this is on purpose and it's some sort of trick. 291 00:15:09.399 --> 00:15:12.120 You know when you talk about Maga as a magician, 292 00:15:12.320 --> 00:15:17.279 like what Abramovich. You know, she recently said Trump is 293 00:15:17.320 --> 00:15:20.120 a master magician in some way, you know, and perhaps 294 00:15:20.120 --> 00:15:22.799 he is, at least in some people's mind. 295 00:15:23.039 --> 00:15:25.799 Well, you know, I think Buck Henry and mel Brooks 296 00:15:25.840 --> 00:15:27.960 kind it right back when they created Get Smart, right, 297 00:15:28.759 --> 00:15:32.320 the villain guys were chaos, and you know you had 298 00:15:32.360 --> 00:15:34.799 to Get Smart to stop that. 299 00:15:34.960 --> 00:15:35.879 I think it's about time. 300 00:15:35.960 --> 00:15:38.919 That's that's the what we should be telling the MAGA 301 00:15:38.960 --> 00:15:41.480 people you got to get smart to stop this chaos. 302 00:15:41.840 --> 00:15:44.399 It is a deliberate program of chaos. And you know 303 00:15:44.480 --> 00:15:48.759 you're talking about Turkey and other places liquidating their goal 304 00:15:48.879 --> 00:15:51.759 for this kind of a rainy day. That's exactly what 305 00:15:51.919 --> 00:15:54.360 Frank Nicely was trying to get the State of Tennessee 306 00:15:54.360 --> 00:15:56.360 to do. In other states to do that, say, look, 307 00:15:56.639 --> 00:15:59.480 rainy day is coming. You know, this petro dollar nonsense, 308 00:15:59.519 --> 00:16:02.039 it's Fiat currency is going to blow up. You need 309 00:16:02.039 --> 00:16:04.840 to have some way to keep the state government going. 310 00:16:05.320 --> 00:16:07.600 And so let's start to accumulate gold that we can 311 00:16:07.639 --> 00:16:12.120 then keep for that rainy day. And yet for individuals, 312 00:16:12.519 --> 00:16:13.879 we may not be able to get the state to 313 00:16:13.879 --> 00:16:16.799 do that, but individuals still have the ability to do that. 314 00:16:18.120 --> 00:16:20.919 Well absolutely, I mean you can still and I think 315 00:16:20.960 --> 00:16:22.440 this will be for a long time to come. You 316 00:16:22.480 --> 00:16:24.600 can still be your own bank. Yeah, you know, thanks 317 00:16:24.600 --> 00:16:27.039 to Gerald Ford nineteen seventy four. I mean, it was 318 00:16:27.039 --> 00:16:29.399 illegal to own gold as an American from thirty three 319 00:16:29.480 --> 00:16:32.480 to nineteen seventy four, and those who took advantage of 320 00:16:32.519 --> 00:16:34.639 that have done really well. I mean, even if you 321 00:16:34.679 --> 00:16:38.279 started buying gold in the last three years, you've done 322 00:16:38.360 --> 00:16:41.039 really well, and you will do well in the next 323 00:16:41.080 --> 00:16:45.559 twenty It's not going away. Gold is money. It's replacing 324 00:16:45.600 --> 00:16:49.679 the system, and it's just it's funny like it's going back. 325 00:16:49.720 --> 00:16:53.440 Everything fine, like water finds its level. This experiment that 326 00:16:53.480 --> 00:16:57.440 we started in seventy one of the fiat currency, and 327 00:16:57.440 --> 00:16:59.519 of course we had the run with the petro dollar. 328 00:17:00.159 --> 00:17:05.799 That's over, like thet dollar system is collapsing. So everything 329 00:17:05.839 --> 00:17:08.480 that was built after seventy four, there's a lot of 330 00:17:08.480 --> 00:17:10.960 fake there. I mean, that's it's why we have a 331 00:17:11.000 --> 00:17:14.160 thirty nine trillion dollar deficit and then I don't know 332 00:17:14.160 --> 00:17:16.839 how many hundreds of trillions of unfunded liabilities, all these 333 00:17:16.880 --> 00:17:20.039 promises that were made that can't be kept. It's the 334 00:17:20.279 --> 00:17:22.599 it's the reason that things don't run the way they're 335 00:17:22.640 --> 00:17:26.920 supposed to. There's it's not based off of any sort 336 00:17:26.960 --> 00:17:32.279 of measurement of reality. It's not sound. It's unsound, and 337 00:17:32.319 --> 00:17:35.160 so you get unsound things when you don't have sound money. 338 00:17:35.400 --> 00:17:37.359 So that's all coming apart. But the rest of the 339 00:17:37.400 --> 00:17:40.119 world they've already moved on. When you look at bricks, 340 00:17:40.519 --> 00:17:45.200 whatever that is to to, you know, the the financial networks, 341 00:17:45.240 --> 00:17:48.160 whatever they think bricks is, which is Brazil, Russia, India, China, 342 00:17:48.200 --> 00:17:51.720 South Africa, and then all these other periphery nations. They're 343 00:17:51.759 --> 00:17:55.359 already departed. They've departed long ago, and they're building the infrastructure. 344 00:17:55.359 --> 00:17:58.000 That's I think the most one of the most interesting 345 00:17:58.039 --> 00:18:01.079 stories if you really follow you know, the headlines outside 346 00:18:01.079 --> 00:18:04.640 of the mainstream, is that the infrastructure for the new 347 00:18:04.799 --> 00:18:07.200 system built on gold is already being built. 348 00:18:07.440 --> 00:18:09.160 M m. Yeah. 349 00:18:09.160 --> 00:18:10.839 In terms of the petro dollar, I mean, you know, 350 00:18:10.880 --> 00:18:13.039 the fact is that when that was put together, we're 351 00:18:13.039 --> 00:18:14.799 one of the big customers because we were doing a 352 00:18:14.799 --> 00:18:18.000 lot of manufacturing and so we were using more than 353 00:18:18.039 --> 00:18:20.599 we were producing in terms of oil and things like that. 354 00:18:21.200 --> 00:18:23.559 Now it's China that's in that position. They're doing most 355 00:18:23.559 --> 00:18:26.400 of the manufacturing and they're having to import oil, and 356 00:18:26.440 --> 00:18:31.240 so the Saudis have turned towards China. Iran is kicked 357 00:18:31.279 --> 00:18:34.400 out of the system that we set up. So they're 358 00:18:34.400 --> 00:18:38.279 going to start tolling these oil tankers in terms of 359 00:18:38.440 --> 00:18:42.000 Chinese yu Wan because they have to. But that is 360 00:18:42.039 --> 00:18:44.839 a direct assault to the petro dollars. So what does 361 00:18:45.119 --> 00:18:48.599 Trump do in response to all this stuff? He goes, well, 362 00:18:49.359 --> 00:18:52.039 the leader of Saudi Arabia is going to have to 363 00:18:52.079 --> 00:18:57.440 kiss my ass. It's just amazing he couldn't. It has 364 00:18:57.480 --> 00:19:01.079 to be deliberate. It can't be that stupid and that 365 00:19:01.240 --> 00:19:04.519 destructive and that chaotic without it actually being deliberate. 366 00:19:04.559 --> 00:19:08.559 I think, yeah, we're hitched onto a very wild ride. 367 00:19:09.359 --> 00:19:12.680 The decline. It reminds me. You know, there was this 368 00:19:12.759 --> 00:19:16.960 phase in MacArthur's life, Douglas MacArthur, and you know, he'd 369 00:19:16.960 --> 00:19:20.720 been Viceroy of Japan post World War Two, and you 370 00:19:20.759 --> 00:19:22.960 know the start of the Korean War, and I'm sure 371 00:19:23.000 --> 00:19:26.279 you know this history. He was in his seventies, you know, 372 00:19:26.319 --> 00:19:28.480 it was like early seventies, and he had this moment 373 00:19:28.599 --> 00:19:32.720 and if William Manchester, who wrote the biography on him 374 00:19:32.720 --> 00:19:35.920 called American Caesar, it opens up and it talks about 375 00:19:35.920 --> 00:19:39.599 how his character split like a nuclear reactor, like he 376 00:19:39.640 --> 00:19:42.720 had a fissure and like he it's whatever happened, it imploded, 377 00:19:42.880 --> 00:19:45.839 and he destroyed himself by being so arrogant, Like is 378 00:19:46.599 --> 00:19:51.400 everything he'd built is this mythos of himself? You know, 379 00:19:51.440 --> 00:19:53.680 he made these statements like, oh, the Chinese will never 380 00:19:53.799 --> 00:19:55.640 enter the war, and if they do, then I'll drop 381 00:19:55.720 --> 00:19:58.319 seventy atomic weapons on Mainland, China, and people like you 382 00:19:58.319 --> 00:20:00.519 don't even have control of that. The president, he's trying 383 00:20:00.519 --> 00:20:02.759 to go above Truman's head. So this really got to 384 00:20:02.880 --> 00:20:05.559 him and it just reminds me of that, like whatever 385 00:20:05.640 --> 00:20:08.400 that phase in life, and you know, Trump seems to 386 00:20:08.440 --> 00:20:12.240 have hit that, and unfortunately he's president, Like we're tied 387 00:20:12.279 --> 00:20:15.759 to this. Can you imagine I mean just just I 388 00:20:15.799 --> 00:20:20.960 mean without even being critical of like politically, to celebrate 389 00:20:21.400 --> 00:20:26.119 Robert Mueller's death, Yeah, I think publicly as the leader 390 00:20:26.160 --> 00:20:30.039 of the so called free world. I mean, that's bothers them. 391 00:20:30.039 --> 00:20:32.839 There's no precedent for that. I don't I can't look 392 00:20:32.880 --> 00:20:36.480 back through history and see anybody who really had any 393 00:20:36.480 --> 00:20:39.240 of that sort of power using that those that kind 394 00:20:39.279 --> 00:20:42.079 of language publicly. I mean always there is privates, the 395 00:20:42.160 --> 00:20:45.200 Nixon tapes and things, but you're talking about public statement. 396 00:20:46.680 --> 00:20:49.160 Said when he said that, Tony, I said, well, he's 397 00:20:49.240 --> 00:20:52.400 just written his own quote unquote eulogy. You know, that's 398 00:20:52.440 --> 00:20:55.559 basically what people say about him. You know, when he dies, 399 00:20:55.599 --> 00:20:57.319 I'm sure people are going to bring back that line 400 00:20:57.359 --> 00:20:58.880 and say I'm glad he's dead. 401 00:20:58.920 --> 00:21:00.799
