WEBVTT 1 00:00:29.800 --> 00:00:33.399 In a world of deceit, telling the truth is a 2 00:00:33.479 --> 00:00:34.840 revolutionary act. 3 00:00:36.119 --> 00:00:46.200 It's the David Knight Show. As a clock strikes thirteen, 4 00:00:46.359 --> 00:00:49.640 It's Thursday, the fourth of December of Our Lord twenty 5 00:00:49.759 --> 00:00:52.960 twenty five. Well, today we're going to look at some 6 00:00:53.079 --> 00:00:56.960 of the harbingers of what is coming with the technocracy, AI, 7 00:00:57.240 --> 00:01:02.280 humanoid robots. Even China is concerned. China is concerned, not 8 00:01:02.359 --> 00:01:05.640 so much about the authoritarian consequences they like that, they're 9 00:01:05.640 --> 00:01:10.079 concerned even about a bubble in their own country, that 10 00:01:10.159 --> 00:01:15.319 maybe they're investing too much into this area malinvestment. Who 11 00:01:15.359 --> 00:01:18.719 would have thought that that would happen with an economy 12 00:01:18.760 --> 00:01:22.519 that is controlled by the government. But we'll take a 13 00:01:22.519 --> 00:01:25.959 look at we'll take a look at that. We'll also 14 00:01:26.000 --> 00:01:31.040 take a look Joe Rogan has an interesting theory about 15 00:01:31.680 --> 00:01:37.799 Jesus coming back as artificial intelligence. I just about fell 16 00:01:37.799 --> 00:01:39.799 out of my chair when I saw that. But we 17 00:01:39.879 --> 00:01:45.079 have other news that is not quite as comical as that, 18 00:01:46.359 --> 00:02:10.400 and we'll be right back to stay with us. Well 19 00:02:10.400 --> 00:02:13.879 before we get into some of the weightier issues and 20 00:02:14.800 --> 00:02:19.120 what is happening in terms of the cultural drift. I 21 00:02:19.159 --> 00:02:21.680 thought this is a very interesting article and it really 22 00:02:21.719 --> 00:02:24.479 does go back to the Second Amendment and your right 23 00:02:24.599 --> 00:02:27.520 to defend yourself, and it also goes back to the 24 00:02:27.560 --> 00:02:30.639 mandates about the vaccines and things like that. In formed 25 00:02:30.639 --> 00:02:34.759 consent when it comes to your life, you are not 26 00:02:35.000 --> 00:02:39.000 owned by corporations. This is an example of a woman 27 00:02:39.439 --> 00:02:43.719 twenty five years old who had been working very late night, 28 00:02:43.919 --> 00:02:47.439 dangerous shift at a convenience store chained seven to eleven, 29 00:02:48.599 --> 00:02:54.639 and she was attacked by man in the convenience store 30 00:02:54.719 --> 00:02:57.759 late at night, which she's there basically by herself, and 31 00:02:58.599 --> 00:03:01.759 she tried to back him off with a gun and 32 00:03:01.800 --> 00:03:05.360 he would not do it. He attacked her physically, made 33 00:03:05.439 --> 00:03:09.039 contact and hurt her, but she killed him with a gun, 34 00:03:09.840 --> 00:03:12.680 and so then seven eleven fired her because she was 35 00:03:12.719 --> 00:03:17.919 carrying a gun. But as John Lotte points out, the 36 00:03:17.960 --> 00:03:19.639 reason that she had a gun was the reason that 37 00:03:19.639 --> 00:03:24.879 she's alive. When you look at these statistics, the gun 38 00:03:25.199 --> 00:03:28.560 is at least gives women a fighting chance. If they 39 00:03:28.639 --> 00:03:32.680 watched the Marvel movies these other things where women are 40 00:03:33.039 --> 00:03:34.960 the you know, taking out a whole group of men. 41 00:03:35.039 --> 00:03:38.960 Anything that is simply wishful, wish fulfillment for women, that 42 00:03:39.080 --> 00:03:41.520 is nothing that has to do with reality. 43 00:03:41.759 --> 00:03:42.919 And statistics, But. 44 00:03:42.919 --> 00:03:47.039 You don't understand it's seven eleven's policy for workers to 45 00:03:47.120 --> 00:03:48.159 die when they are. 46 00:03:48.520 --> 00:03:50.400 That's right, just like it was a policy of a 47 00:03:50.400 --> 00:03:53.800 lot of companies who wanted to do business with the 48 00:03:53.840 --> 00:03:57.960 federal government, and Biden made that a condition, and so 49 00:03:58.080 --> 00:04:01.199 they said, so you will take the shot or you'll 50 00:04:01.240 --> 00:04:06.199 lose your job. So last week seven love and fire 51 00:04:06.199 --> 00:04:07.759 to the twenty five year old after she used her 52 00:04:07.759 --> 00:04:10.520 gun to save her own life. Private companies have every 53 00:04:10.599 --> 00:04:13.080 right to set rules for employee behavior, but many corporate 54 00:04:13.080 --> 00:04:16.839 policies that require workers to remain passive and comply with 55 00:04:17.040 --> 00:04:20.959 criminals demands rest on a deeply mistaken view of crime data. 56 00:04:21.600 --> 00:04:25.120 You know, when I saw this, I maybe when Karen 57 00:04:25.160 --> 00:04:28.160 and I were living in Houston. She was a district 58 00:04:28.160 --> 00:04:30.680 personnel manager for a convenience store chain, not seven eleven, 59 00:04:30.759 --> 00:04:36.439 another one, and so they had policies about how they 60 00:04:36.439 --> 00:04:38.639 were supposed to act if it was a robbery. This 61 00:04:38.680 --> 00:04:40.319 is not a robbery. This is a guy who was 62 00:04:40.839 --> 00:04:44.519 attacking her to rape or kill her. But when I 63 00:04:44.560 --> 00:04:46.920 had a robbery, you know, they're just supposed to hand 64 00:04:46.959 --> 00:04:50.639 them the money and not get involved in a fight. 65 00:04:50.920 --> 00:04:53.120 In terms of a conflict. The problem was that they 66 00:04:53.160 --> 00:04:58.319 had they had a lot of Asian employees who their 67 00:04:58.360 --> 00:05:01.240 reaction to a robbery, especially if it was somebody that 68 00:05:01.319 --> 00:05:06.519 was a different ethnic group, their response was to kind 69 00:05:06.519 --> 00:05:10.560 of smile or whatever. It just set off flags with 70 00:05:09.759 --> 00:05:13.879 the other ethnic group that was typically doing the robberies, 71 00:05:14.279 --> 00:05:17.720 and they were getting shot very frequently. And you have 72 00:05:17.879 --> 00:05:20.519 a situation where and you see this over and over again, 73 00:05:20.600 --> 00:05:23.160 you have some ethnic group that comes in. It's not 74 00:05:23.199 --> 00:05:26.120 just white people to hire other white people. If you 75 00:05:26.160 --> 00:05:28.920 get Mexicans and they will hire other Mexicans and Asians 76 00:05:28.920 --> 00:05:31.639 and they'll hire other Asians. And so they had a 77 00:05:31.920 --> 00:05:35.759 manager and he was a martial arts expert. I mean, 78 00:05:36.759 --> 00:05:39.000 Karen had seen him do some pretty amazing things just 79 00:05:39.040 --> 00:05:42.839 to demonstrate his precision kicking abilities and things like that, 80 00:05:42.959 --> 00:05:46.399 you know, just as a demonstration, not out of anger. 81 00:05:47.319 --> 00:05:49.519 He did like a sidekick to a manager that was 82 00:05:49.560 --> 00:05:51.360 staying there and just came within like an inch of 83 00:05:51.399 --> 00:05:57.160 his face, deliberately pulling it back. So anyway, this guy 84 00:05:57.279 --> 00:06:01.120 was pretty bulked up and he was very agile and everything. 85 00:06:01.120 --> 00:06:03.439 And so he was there during one of these robberies 86 00:06:04.399 --> 00:06:07.839 and the robber had a gun and this guy. His 87 00:06:07.959 --> 00:06:10.920 name was Sue, by the way, it's kind of the 88 00:06:11.480 --> 00:06:14.600 Johnny Cash song. You know a boy named Sue. But 89 00:06:15.600 --> 00:06:18.279 I don't know if he got rigged ribbed about that 90 00:06:18.399 --> 00:06:21.519 or not. But he was a nice guy. He is 91 00:06:21.560 --> 00:06:25.759 a nice guy. But he decided that he could take 92 00:06:25.800 --> 00:06:29.160 on a gun with martial arts. It's kind of like 93 00:06:29.199 --> 00:06:31.319 the Boxer Rebellion in China. That's why they call it 94 00:06:31.319 --> 00:06:35.160 the boxer rebellion because the British came in with armed 95 00:06:35.279 --> 00:06:41.040 soldiers and the Chinese fought them with martial arts and lost. 96 00:06:41.279 --> 00:06:44.959 And he got shot and killed in that, and so 97 00:06:46.240 --> 00:06:48.000 the same type of thing. You know, if you're a woman, 98 00:06:49.399 --> 00:06:51.800 you need a gun to give yourself at least a 99 00:06:51.920 --> 00:06:54.240 chance if the person's got a gun, and if they 100 00:06:54.319 --> 00:06:56.759 don't have a gun, even if the person's much bigger 101 00:06:56.759 --> 00:06:59.560 than you, if you got the gun, you have the advantage, 102 00:07:00.279 --> 00:07:03.199 even if the person is a martial arts expert. So 103 00:07:03.240 --> 00:07:05.399 he said he threatened me, and he said he was 104 00:07:05.399 --> 00:07:07.680 going to slice my head off, and that's when I 105 00:07:07.720 --> 00:07:09.639 tried to call the police. He started throwing things at me, 106 00:07:09.720 --> 00:07:12.319 came behind the counter. I tried to run off, but 107 00:07:12.399 --> 00:07:15.639 he grabbed his put his hands around my neck, pushed 108 00:07:15.680 --> 00:07:17.879 me on the counterspace. That's when I pulled out my 109 00:07:17.920 --> 00:07:20.560 gun and shot him. I had to choose between my 110 00:07:20.680 --> 00:07:25.759 job and my life. Just like five years ago, we 111 00:07:25.839 --> 00:07:27.199 had a lot of people had to do that. I 112 00:07:27.240 --> 00:07:29.959 guess four years ago it was twenty twenty one. I 113 00:07:29.959 --> 00:07:32.720 will always choose my life because people depend on me. 114 00:07:32.839 --> 00:07:36.480 My kids need me here. She survived with wounds to 115 00:07:36.519 --> 00:07:38.920 the neck and hands, injuries that could have been far worse. 116 00:07:39.319 --> 00:07:43.920 Her attacker, fifty nine year old Kenneth Thompson, already had 117 00:07:43.959 --> 00:07:47.519 an outstanding felony warrant for a parole violation and for 118 00:07:47.600 --> 00:07:50.759 his latest crimes. Prosecutors have charged him with assault and 119 00:07:50.800 --> 00:07:54.399 battery so he did not die, and also threatening acts 120 00:07:54.399 --> 00:07:59.279 of violence and attempting to pass a fake bill. Maybe 121 00:07:59.279 --> 00:08:01.839 that's what started the whole thing to begin with. Maybe 122 00:08:01.839 --> 00:08:04.319 he was passing some counterfeit money. She called him on it. 123 00:08:05.240 --> 00:08:08.879 For more than two years, this woman has worked the 124 00:08:08.959 --> 00:08:12.920 dangerous eleven PM to seven am shift alone, so she 125 00:08:13.040 --> 00:08:18.360 was working eleven to seven at seven eleven. Despite those conditions, 126 00:08:19.040 --> 00:08:22.079 seven to eleven insisted that she use only store items 127 00:08:22.240 --> 00:08:23.279 to defend herself. 128 00:08:23.839 --> 00:08:25.480 Would you like some breath minuts instead. 129 00:08:25.519 --> 00:08:30.720 You know it's Unfortunately, while some of the media many 130 00:08:30.759 --> 00:08:34.799 businesses may concede that passive behavior by store clerks might 131 00:08:34.879 --> 00:08:38.440 encourage more crime, they believe that passive behavior is still 132 00:08:38.519 --> 00:08:42.039 the safest course of action. But John Lotte points out 133 00:08:42.080 --> 00:08:44.639 for women, the most dangerous form of resistance is to 134 00:08:44.759 --> 00:08:48.360 fight with their fists, because doing so often triggers a 135 00:08:48.440 --> 00:08:55.080 violent physical reaction from the attacker. The next most dangerous 136 00:08:55.120 --> 00:08:58.840 choice is to run. Escaping is ideal when possible, but 137 00:08:58.919 --> 00:09:02.200 women generally run more slowly than men. We kind of 138 00:09:02.279 --> 00:09:06.120 learned that lesson thanks to the transgenders, haven't we really 139 00:09:06.200 --> 00:09:10.480 much of a question anymore? And if you're tackled from behind, 140 00:09:11.120 --> 00:09:15.159 that can produce serious injury. Other options, such as using 141 00:09:15.159 --> 00:09:17.240 a baseball bat or a knife, turn out to not 142 00:09:17.360 --> 00:09:20.159 be much better because women are at a disadvantage whenever 143 00:09:20.159 --> 00:09:24.879 they come into physical contact with a male attacker. By contrast, 144 00:09:24.960 --> 00:09:27.519 the safest option for a woman confronted by criminals have 145 00:09:27.559 --> 00:09:31.600 a gun. Women who rely on passive behavior are two 146 00:09:31.639 --> 00:09:33.960 and a half times more likely to suffer serious injury 147 00:09:33.960 --> 00:09:37.279 than women who defend themselves with a firearm. Murder rates 148 00:09:37.320 --> 00:09:42.360 fall when either men or women carry concealed handguns, where 149 00:09:42.360 --> 00:09:46.279 the reduction is especially large for women. Each additional woman 150 00:09:46.759 --> 00:09:50.440 with a concealed carry permit lowers the female murder rate 151 00:09:50.480 --> 00:09:54.159 by roughly three to four times more than each additional 152 00:09:54.200 --> 00:09:58.480 male permit holder lowers the male murder rate. So the 153 00:09:58.519 --> 00:10:02.799 bottom line, he says, fortune, her children still have their mother. 154 00:10:04.120 --> 00:10:06.279 And this is the type of thing that the media 155 00:10:06.360 --> 00:10:11.240 doesn't usually like to pay attention to. You know, the 156 00:10:11.279 --> 00:10:14.519 gun is a tool, and it can be used to 157 00:10:14.559 --> 00:10:18.039 take life or to defend life, and many times it 158 00:10:18.039 --> 00:10:20.480 doesn't even need to be fired in order to defend life. 159 00:10:21.240 --> 00:10:25.080 So Trump is confirmed that Biden's autopen documents, orders and 160 00:10:25.399 --> 00:10:27.320 pardons are void. And so you've got a lot of 161 00:10:27.360 --> 00:10:31.480 people saying, Wow, that means that Fauci's pardon is not legit. 162 00:10:31.600 --> 00:10:33.960 We can go after him. Does that mean that Hunter's 163 00:10:34.000 --> 00:10:37.360 pardon is not legit, we can go after him. Well, 164 00:10:37.480 --> 00:10:42.879 it's not that simple, Trump said. Anyone receiving pardons, commutations, 165 00:10:42.960 --> 00:10:46.159 or any other legal document so signed with an autopen 166 00:10:46.879 --> 00:10:51.399 please be advised that said document has been fully and 167 00:10:51.480 --> 00:10:56.120 completely terminated and is of no legal effect. Thank you 168 00:10:56.120 --> 00:11:00.879 for your attention to this matter. It signs off on 169 00:11:00.919 --> 00:11:06.600 a So the issue though, is, how do you prove 170 00:11:07.799 --> 00:11:10.559 that this is not done with Biden's consent, that some 171 00:11:10.600 --> 00:11:12.759 employees did it with the autopen and he didn't know 172 00:11:12.799 --> 00:11:16.799 about it. Joe Biden was not involved in the autopen process, 173 00:11:16.840 --> 00:11:18.720 and if he says he was, he will be brought 174 00:11:18.759 --> 00:11:22.360 up on charges of perjury, said Trump. The autopen, which 175 00:11:22.399 --> 00:11:24.600 uses a real pen and et to mechanically replicate a 176 00:11:24.679 --> 00:11:28.639 president's signature, can be used to sign official documents, but 177 00:11:28.879 --> 00:11:32.200 the president must direct the signing of each document or bill, 178 00:11:32.240 --> 00:11:35.039 according to the Office of Legal Counsel. So again, you 179 00:11:35.080 --> 00:11:38.279 get into this murket area. How do you prove whether 180 00:11:38.320 --> 00:11:41.879 you authorize that or not. According to some legal scholars, 181 00:11:42.000 --> 00:11:47.639 US presidents may revoke previous issued executive orders. However, revoking 182 00:11:47.799 --> 00:11:53.399 pardons may not be constitutional and could face roadblocks, experts 183 00:11:53.440 --> 00:11:57.200 told me Epic Times. So has that stopped Trump in 184 00:11:57.240 --> 00:12:04.200 the past doing auto tariffs? I don't mean buy that cars. 185 00:12:04.279 --> 00:12:06.879 I mean just I do it myself. I don't need 186 00:12:06.919 --> 00:12:09.759 to get anybody else in government involved. We'll see if 187 00:12:09.759 --> 00:12:12.919 that holds. I hope it doesn't. A US House Committee 188 00:12:12.960 --> 00:12:16.360 on Oversight, led by James Comer, published a report in 189 00:12:16.360 --> 00:12:21.080 October detailing and investigation in the Biden's use of autopen signatures, 190 00:12:21.159 --> 00:12:24.679 I should say the Biden Administration's use of it. The 191 00:12:24.679 --> 00:12:28.080 committee stated it found evidence that Biden's White House staff 192 00:12:28.639 --> 00:12:32.840 concealed his diminishing mental and physical condition intentionally. The committee 193 00:12:32.879 --> 00:12:34.919 has found that there was, in fact a cover up 194 00:12:35.039 --> 00:12:38.240 of the president's cognitive decline, and that there is no 195 00:12:38.360 --> 00:12:42.559 record demonstrating Biden himself made all of the executive decisions 196 00:12:42.559 --> 00:12:45.639 that were attributed to him. So what this will do 197 00:12:46.159 --> 00:12:50.840 is that, in other words, if the president is there, 198 00:12:51.039 --> 00:12:55.919 it would be mentally there and not mentally impaired. Then, 199 00:12:56.039 --> 00:12:59.840 of course, if somebody signs a document there assumed that 200 00:12:59.879 --> 00:13:02.039 it was done with his consent, because if they did 201 00:13:02.080 --> 00:13:05.320 it without his consent, he would call him on it. Right, So, 202 00:13:05.720 --> 00:13:09.799 in order to make this stick as an autopen president 203 00:13:09.879 --> 00:13:14.600 that he can overturn this stuff, they have to make 204 00:13:14.639 --> 00:13:20.120 it about Biden's cognitive condition. If he was not aware 205 00:13:20.120 --> 00:13:22.639 of anything that was going on, then clearly this is 206 00:13:22.679 --> 00:13:26.000 being done by the staff and not by him. 207 00:13:26.840 --> 00:13:27.279 And so. 208 00:13:29.919 --> 00:13:34.639 It's not even necessary for Trump to have to go 209 00:13:34.759 --> 00:13:38.320 that route. If he's talking about other executive orders other 210 00:13:38.399 --> 00:13:41.919 than pardons. So I think that's the other aspect of this. 211 00:13:42.000 --> 00:13:45.720 It does two things. It brings back up these you know, 212 00:13:45.879 --> 00:13:51.000 the revenge aspect and also the calls from MAGA to 213 00:13:51.000 --> 00:13:54.000 get Fauci. I don't think Trump would go after Fauci, 214 00:13:54.559 --> 00:13:56.480 even if he said his pardon was not there, because 215 00:13:56.519 --> 00:14:01.679 remember the last thing he did was to give Fauci 216 00:14:01.879 --> 00:14:06.600 a medal for Operation Warp Speed. He brags about the vaccine. 217 00:14:06.600 --> 00:14:08.879 He loves that he's the father of the vaccine. He 218 00:14:08.919 --> 00:14:10.879 did more than anybody to get the vaccine. He's not 219 00:14:10.919 --> 00:14:15.679 going to come after Fauci because he owns the crimes 220 00:14:15.720 --> 00:14:20.879 of Fauci. And so yet again Maga is real excited 221 00:14:21.519 --> 00:14:24.679 about something that Trump is not going to do, even 222 00:14:24.720 --> 00:14:27.840 if he can do it. So it's a very difficult 223 00:14:27.879 --> 00:14:30.200 thing for him to get rid of these pardons. But 224 00:14:32.039 --> 00:14:34.320 as far as executive orders, he doesn't need to prove 225 00:14:34.360 --> 00:14:36.039 that it was not a pen you know, he can 226 00:14:36.600 --> 00:14:39.960 avoid the executive order from the previous president. As a 227 00:14:40.000 --> 00:14:42.279 matter of fact, many times, what these guys will do 228 00:14:42.360 --> 00:14:45.759 is re up the executive orders from the previous president, 229 00:14:45.879 --> 00:14:50.080 like the declaration of a COVID emergency that didn't exist 230 00:14:50.840 --> 00:14:54.440 during his presidency, Biden issued four two and forty five 231 00:14:54.559 --> 00:14:58.759 acts of clemency, more than any other president, and he 232 00:14:58.840 --> 00:15:02.960 issued one hundred and six to executive orders. I think 233 00:15:03.200 --> 00:15:07.480 Trump has already beat that. So Trump was at one 234 00:15:07.559 --> 00:15:10.399 hundred and forty four in his first term, but I 235 00:15:10.440 --> 00:15:13.600 think he has already passed that, or passed that significantly. 236 00:15:14.759 --> 00:15:17.639 You know, one of the things that has fallen out 237 00:15:17.720 --> 00:15:21.559 of this ill timed terror for whether you agree with 238 00:15:21.600 --> 00:15:25.039 it or not, it's the on again, off again and 239 00:15:25.200 --> 00:15:29.799 the radical change that was imposed all at once. And 240 00:15:30.240 --> 00:15:31.679 one of the things that has fallen out of this 241 00:15:31.879 --> 00:15:35.759 is the rare earth issue China has been weaponizing. That night, 242 00:15:35.879 --> 00:15:39.480 I talked to an executive I want to go as 243 00:15:39.519 --> 00:15:41.960 it was it in the summer who had a company 244 00:15:42.559 --> 00:15:46.799 that was set up to process where earth. It turns 245 00:15:46.799 --> 00:15:51.039 out that the rare earth metals are not rare, not 246 00:15:51.159 --> 00:15:55.039 difficult to find, it's just difficult to extract them, and 247 00:15:55.039 --> 00:15:58.440 they're usually they're in combination with other things. And so 248 00:15:58.919 --> 00:16:01.320 now it appears and this is kind of interesting. I mean, 249 00:16:01.320 --> 00:16:04.799 this is not a political thing. It's not something's directly 250 00:16:04.840 --> 00:16:09.399 going to affect you. Perhaps, but this chemist may have 251 00:16:09.440 --> 00:16:13.279 cracked America's rare earth problem. He thinks he can basically 252 00:16:13.440 --> 00:16:17.759 mine this stuff out of electronic waste, go to the 253 00:16:17.840 --> 00:16:21.480 landfill and find it, and they have a way to 254 00:16:21.559 --> 00:16:26.480 extract this. One flash is all it takes. It's all 255 00:16:26.480 --> 00:16:30.320 he needs to get these rare earth metals out of 256 00:16:30.399 --> 00:16:36.200 discarded electronics, and the US has mountains of that from 257 00:16:36.240 --> 00:16:40.320 the scrap metal. Rice University chemist and nanotechnologist has pioneered 258 00:16:40.320 --> 00:16:44.759 a way to quickly extract rare earth metals. He said, 259 00:16:44.799 --> 00:16:46.159 you can pull out one metal and then you can 260 00:16:46.159 --> 00:16:48.639 pull out another one. It's really just that simple, he said. 261 00:16:49.440 --> 00:16:54.320 His solution is flash jewel heating, rapidly heating up the 262 00:16:54.320 --> 00:16:58.399 materials to thousands of degrees in order to vaporize the metals. 263 00:16:59.120 --> 00:17:01.879 Mixed with chlorine gas. The vapors turn into chlorides that 264 00:17:01.960 --> 00:17:07.000 emerge at different temperatures. But just like in an incandescent 265 00:17:07.119 --> 00:17:10.680 light bulb, the technique works by passing electric current through 266 00:17:10.680 --> 00:17:16.240 the raw material. But whereas the former channels a steady 267 00:17:16.279 --> 00:17:19.359 electric current to create a perpetual glow that's a light 268 00:17:19.359 --> 00:17:23.279 bulb and treating metals, the energy arrives in short bursts, 269 00:17:24.039 --> 00:17:27.519 dialing up the heat in milliseconds, he says, so metals 270 00:17:27.599 --> 00:17:32.279 are infinitely recyclable, whereas a traditional way of distilling metals 271 00:17:32.319 --> 00:17:35.960 is rather messy. He said, this is all about simplicity. 272 00:17:36.480 --> 00:17:39.920 You flash and you're done. Speed is now more critical 273 00:17:39.960 --> 00:17:41.799 than ever in the US is racing against time to 274 00:17:41.839 --> 00:17:46.000 reshore rare earth production. It spurred in part by China's 275 00:17:46.079 --> 00:17:50.039 October threat to dramatically curtail access. And one of the 276 00:17:50.079 --> 00:17:55.119 things I think is interesting is how America has shot 277 00:17:55.160 --> 00:17:57.559 itself in the foot, not just with the tariff policies, 278 00:17:58.160 --> 00:18:01.680 but just in general with China. It turns out that 279 00:18:02.119 --> 00:18:06.160 we developed the rare earth materials, and we also developed 280 00:18:06.920 --> 00:18:10.160 the uses for them, and we pretty much had the 281 00:18:10.200 --> 00:18:15.079 monopoly on it. And then the government approved the purchase. 282 00:18:16.759 --> 00:18:20.839 Under Clinton, of course, they approved the purchase of the 283 00:18:20.920 --> 00:18:24.160 leading producer of rare earth minerals. It's called a Mountain 284 00:18:24.200 --> 00:18:29.200 Pass mine in California, supplied almost all the world. Now 285 00:18:29.279 --> 00:18:33.440 China has ninety percent of capacity. And what happened was 286 00:18:33.440 --> 00:18:37.759 they approved the sale of this company to China. China 287 00:18:37.799 --> 00:18:40.680 operated it for a couple of years, and then as 288 00:18:40.759 --> 00:18:43.519 nineteen ninety five, during the middle of the Clinton administration, 289 00:18:44.279 --> 00:18:50.920 the company was known as Magna Quinch, and so they 290 00:18:50.960 --> 00:18:53.759 bought it and operated it for like nine years and 291 00:18:53.799 --> 00:18:57.440 then shut it down. It was in Indiana, shut it 292 00:18:57.480 --> 00:19:01.599 down and moved all the operations to China. So typical 293 00:19:01.640 --> 00:19:06.640 of what was happening with the Clinton administration and Johnny 294 00:19:06.680 --> 00:19:08.920 Wong and stuff that a lot of these things were 295 00:19:08.960 --> 00:19:13.839 sold to China and it was done secretly, others it 296 00:19:13.880 --> 00:19:19.000 was done publicly. But there's also been other aspects of this, 297 00:19:19.160 --> 00:19:22.319 again going back to the government, the EPA and its 298 00:19:22.400 --> 00:19:26.880 environmental regulations closing that mind and yet we still had 299 00:19:27.279 --> 00:19:33.519 the monopoly because of the processing company Magnequinch. So, whether 300 00:19:33.640 --> 00:19:37.119 it's tariffs or whether it's EPA regulations, or whether it's 301 00:19:37.160 --> 00:19:41.920 a crooked president who is making deals with China, our 302 00:19:42.000 --> 00:19:46.119 problems in America are not due to Americans. It's not 303 00:19:46.240 --> 00:19:50.960 that we can't build this country. The problem is that 304 00:19:51.000 --> 00:19:54.160 we can't stop our government. And so our government's not 305 00:19:54.200 --> 00:19:58.720 only selling off assets regulating things to death, but then 306 00:19:58.759 --> 00:20:02.279 they're bringing in people from others countries to take our jobs. 307 00:20:02.319 --> 00:20:06.519 And the billionaire CEOs like Elon Musk and by A. 308 00:20:06.559 --> 00:20:10.400 Klahamas Slimy say that Americans can't do the job. We've 309 00:20:10.400 --> 00:20:14.279 got to bring in people from other countries. So again, 310 00:20:14.680 --> 00:20:18.880 as early as nineteen seventy six, they started separating at 311 00:20:18.920 --> 00:20:22.160 electronic waste. So now the US has seven point two 312 00:20:22.799 --> 00:20:28.000 million tons of electronic waste, one eighth of the world's total, 313 00:20:29.279 --> 00:20:32.359 about forty six pounds for every American. They say, So 314 00:20:33.400 --> 00:20:36.079 the real reason a waste product is a waste product, 315 00:20:36.079 --> 00:20:37.880 he says, This isn't because it's bad, it's just because 316 00:20:37.880 --> 00:20:39.359 we have found a way that we can use it. 317 00:20:39.480 --> 00:20:41.359 And now he's found a way that he can extract 318 00:20:41.680 --> 00:20:48.279 these metals again with different heating techniques pull out different metals. 319 00:20:48.880 --> 00:20:51.559 The researchers tested the technique on carbon found that it 320 00:20:51.680 --> 00:20:55.000 was a quick way to make high quality graphene at 321 00:20:55.079 --> 00:20:58.200 low cost. Next, they begin exploring the potential of extracting 322 00:20:58.960 --> 00:21:02.759 rare earth material. He says, it's really live chemistry and action. 323 00:21:02.839 --> 00:21:06.640 You see a rainbow of colors coming off, and each 324 00:21:06.680 --> 00:21:10.640 color represents a metal element that has been separated out. 325 00:21:11.000 --> 00:21:13.720 Rare earths, usually with some of the highest boiling points, 326 00:21:13.799 --> 00:21:17.519 tend to come out last, often as a white powder, 327 00:21:17.559 --> 00:21:20.680 he said. And so they have been able to get 328 00:21:20.920 --> 00:21:26.720 funding from DARPA because again it is you know, the 329 00:21:27.119 --> 00:21:29.200 kind of super magnets that they make and other things 330 00:21:29.240 --> 00:21:32.119 like that are one of the key issues there and 331 00:21:32.279 --> 00:21:41.039 very vital for electronic equipment, speaking of perching out materials 332 00:21:41.279 --> 00:21:44.559 that in this particular case, they didn't want. Remember the 333 00:21:44.720 --> 00:21:47.480 advertising plan about a year ago, who had the pink 334 00:21:47.640 --> 00:21:52.559 Jaguar thing and the really really weird LGBT people. I've 335 00:21:52.559 --> 00:21:56.480 played the clip of how they radically changed the branding 336 00:21:56.640 --> 00:22:01.559 image of Jaguar from you know, tough, rich evil guys, 337 00:22:02.119 --> 00:22:05.480 villains and James Bond films and stuff. But you know 338 00:22:05.519 --> 00:22:09.480 that was their branding and then they changed it to this. 339 00:22:09.799 --> 00:22:11.200 Weird LGBT stuff. 340 00:22:11.200 --> 00:22:12.960 Well, they've got a new CEO and one of the 341 00:22:12.960 --> 00:22:15.359 first things he did was to kick the guy who 342 00:22:15.359 --> 00:22:16.400 did this out. 343 00:22:17.000 --> 00:22:20.799 So maybe they don't have a turnaround. But I don't know. 344 00:22:20.880 --> 00:22:23.559 I mean, were they making the Jaguars anymore. I don't 345 00:22:23.599 --> 00:22:26.480 think they can do manufacturing in the UK. I mean 346 00:22:26.480 --> 00:22:29.759 they have basically shot themselves in the foot with the 347 00:22:29.799 --> 00:22:35.880 power issues and with a green new deal. Speaking of 348 00:22:35.920 --> 00:22:38.720 shooting yourself in the foot, this is a guy who 349 00:22:38.759 --> 00:22:41.839 decided that he was going to steal a Faberget pendant. 350 00:22:43.200 --> 00:22:45.279 It was inspired by the James Bond movie, you know, 351 00:22:45.480 --> 00:22:49.920 just kind of like the Jaguar marketing campaign was inspired 352 00:22:49.960 --> 00:22:53.960 by the Villains. This was inspired by the movie Octopusy 353 00:22:54.799 --> 00:22:59.640 and in that movie there was a Faberget item that 354 00:22:59.759 --> 00:23:03.200 was part of it. So they doubled down and they 355 00:23:03.960 --> 00:23:08.799 designed a piece of jewelry that was nineteen thousand dollars 356 00:23:08.920 --> 00:23:10.720 and this guy decided that the way that he could 357 00:23:11.079 --> 00:23:15.279 steal it was to eat it, and evidently somebody saw 358 00:23:15.359 --> 00:23:19.240 him swallow it, and he's been on custody and underwatch 359 00:23:19.880 --> 00:23:24.039 for quite a while. I guess he's going to be 360 00:23:24.039 --> 00:23:28.559 caught by some stool pigeon. He's going to be going 361 00:23:28.640 --> 00:23:32.359 through following. The same thing happened to Kara's mother with 362 00:23:32.440 --> 00:23:37.400 our dog. She dropped a small earring and we had 363 00:23:37.400 --> 00:23:40.079 a basset hound, and I've never seen him move so quickly. 364 00:23:41.279 --> 00:23:43.759 For some reason, he grabbed that thing and swallowed it. 365 00:23:44.359 --> 00:23:48.119 And it was something that's very valuable to her. 366 00:23:49.119 --> 00:23:49.519 And so. 367 00:23:51.200 --> 00:23:53.359 She did the same thing they're doing with this thief. 368 00:23:54.319 --> 00:23:59.599 She followed him around for days, going through every one 369 00:23:59.599 --> 00:24:03.920 of his rules, and so she finally found it when 370 00:24:03.920 --> 00:24:07.319 he passed it, and so she got it cleaned up. 371 00:24:07.319 --> 00:24:09.640 But she could never put it in her ear again, 372 00:24:09.920 --> 00:24:11.920 so she wanted getting rid of it. 373 00:24:12.240 --> 00:24:14.839 I wonder what they're going to do with this faberge it. 374 00:24:14.839 --> 00:24:16.960 Does the museum actually want this back? 375 00:24:17.519 --> 00:24:22.079 Yeah, yeah, I mean maybe he has lowered the demand 376 00:24:22.160 --> 00:24:25.160 for this, but he's going to have to pass a 377 00:24:25.200 --> 00:24:27.079 lot of stones to get this thing out. He's got 378 00:24:27.119 --> 00:24:35.799 a lot of embedded with a lot of stones. Yes, yeah. 379 00:24:35.880 --> 00:24:36.880 Freshly laid. 380 00:24:38.319 --> 00:24:41.279 A word of advice for criminals. If your master plan, 381 00:24:41.680 --> 00:24:45.799 I'm just gonna eat it, you should probably come up 382 00:24:45.839 --> 00:24:51.000 with a different plane. It is something that my toddler 383 00:24:51.160 --> 00:24:55.720 son might come up with, perhaps go back to the 384 00:24:55.799 --> 00:24:56.480 drawing board. 385 00:24:56.599 --> 00:24:58.440 Not exactly a criminal master. 386 00:25:01.880 --> 00:25:04.920 Maybe they could market it around Easter time as kind 387 00:25:04.920 --> 00:25:07.400 of a combination Faberge a egg and Cadbury egg. 388 00:25:07.440 --> 00:25:10.400 I don't know, but the world's worst Easter Egg hunt 389 00:25:10.759 --> 00:25:12.440 and the guy is thirty two years old. 390 00:25:13.480 --> 00:25:15.160 You're think you'd know better than. 391 00:25:15.079 --> 00:25:16.680 You You had time to come up with a better 392 00:25:16.720 --> 00:25:18.119 plan than the Yeah. 393 00:25:19.039 --> 00:25:23.240 So it was a limited or it still is, I guess, 394 00:25:23.279 --> 00:25:26.680 depending on you look at It is a limited edition 395 00:25:26.759 --> 00:25:30.599 Faberge a Egg pendant inspired by the eighty three Bond film. 396 00:25:31.039 --> 00:25:34.160 Central to the film's plot is a jewel smuggling operation 397 00:25:34.640 --> 00:25:38.960 and the falls a fake faberge a egg. It's going 398 00:25:39.000 --> 00:25:42.160 to come with quite a story. Actually, they say the 399 00:25:42.160 --> 00:25:50.559 egg is a jewel smuggle. They say the egg is 400 00:25:51.680 --> 00:25:54.519 one of only fifty which have been made and crafted 401 00:25:54.559 --> 00:25:59.319 from gold, painted with green enamel and encrusted with one 402 00:25:59.359 --> 00:26:01.960 hundred and eighty three diamonds. That could be very painful. 403 00:26:05.920 --> 00:26:10.359 This is this is not a happy ending for anyone. 404 00:26:10.400 --> 00:26:13.559 I don't think the eggs. 405 00:26:14.240 --> 00:26:17.119 The eggs open up to reveal an eighteen car yellow 406 00:26:17.119 --> 00:26:22.640 gold octopus, nestled inside adorned with white diamond suckers and 407 00:26:22.880 --> 00:26:28.839 black diamond eyes. The octopus surprise pays homage to the 408 00:26:28.880 --> 00:26:33.160 eponymous antagonists at the center of the Octopusy film. There 409 00:26:33.200 --> 00:26:37.519 you go, Well, we got one more story here before 410 00:26:37.519 --> 00:26:42.079 I take a break. There's a Republican congressman. I wonder 411 00:26:42.119 --> 00:26:46.319 if he's going to get the eyre that that Trump 412 00:26:46.359 --> 00:26:49.359 has focused on Thomas Massey, because he's put out a 413 00:26:49.400 --> 00:26:53.400 bill that would be a citizenship bill, and this citizenship 414 00:26:53.440 --> 00:27:01.039 bill would outlaw dual citizenship. This guy, himself, Bernie Marino 415 00:27:01.160 --> 00:27:04.759 of Ohio, is a Republican Senator. He came to this 416 00:27:04.799 --> 00:27:07.079 country and became an American citizen. He said he didn't 417 00:27:07.079 --> 00:27:09.880 want to have his other citizenship, and he says, you're 418 00:27:09.920 --> 00:27:12.680 either American and you're not, you know, And so he 419 00:27:13.240 --> 00:27:16.000 thinks we need to end this dual citizenship thing. The 420 00:27:16.079 --> 00:27:21.079 problem is with Trump is that both Milenia and Baron 421 00:27:22.640 --> 00:27:28.160 have dual citizenship in Slovenia. And she likes that because 422 00:27:28.400 --> 00:27:31.559 there's some advantages for that, especially for barn because with 423 00:27:31.640 --> 00:27:35.279 a Slovenian citizenship he gets to do certain things in 424 00:27:35.400 --> 00:27:37.880 EU that he would not be able to do otherwise. 425 00:27:38.640 --> 00:27:41.519 The bill aims to require all dual nationals to renounce 426 00:27:41.519 --> 00:27:45.559 their foreign citizenship or risk losing their American status. And 427 00:27:45.599 --> 00:27:48.680 you know, I got to say, it really does bother 428 00:27:48.799 --> 00:27:52.960 me to see these people who are you know, the 429 00:27:53.759 --> 00:28:00.240 Israeli military uniform, or the case of Rashida Talib, she's 430 00:28:00.240 --> 00:28:03.599 waiving her Palestinian flag and she's got her relatives there, 431 00:28:04.240 --> 00:28:07.160 uhlating in the background when she wins the election. Or 432 00:28:07.160 --> 00:28:09.720 you got people like Benman and he's all about Ukraine 433 00:28:09.759 --> 00:28:11.119 and all the rest of this stuff. And it's like, 434 00:28:11.720 --> 00:28:15.920 why these are people in Congress of all things? And 435 00:28:15.960 --> 00:28:19.960 it does bother me with dual dual citizenship. I'm with Marino. 436 00:28:20.440 --> 00:28:23.720 He immigrated from Columbia and he became a US citizen 437 00:28:23.759 --> 00:28:26.839 at eighteen. He said in a statement, being an American 438 00:28:26.880 --> 00:28:29.000 citizen is an honor and a privilege, and if you 439 00:28:29.000 --> 00:28:32.799 want to be an American, it's all or nothing. So 440 00:28:32.839 --> 00:28:35.440 he says it's a good time to end dual citizenship 441 00:28:35.640 --> 00:28:41.039 for good. And so the problem is that it will 442 00:28:41.039 --> 00:28:44.119 not pass. First of all, there are some legal and 443 00:28:44.160 --> 00:28:49.119 constitutional issues about this, but I think primarily, you know, 444 00:28:49.200 --> 00:28:52.880 there's the issue about Trump. He's not going to want 445 00:28:52.920 --> 00:28:58.000 to do that to affect his family. And there's a 446 00:28:58.000 --> 00:29:02.920 long tradition of courts recognizing that you cannot take away 447 00:29:03.880 --> 00:29:06.759 another country's citizenship, so you can be you can have 448 00:29:06.839 --> 00:29:11.319 dual citizenship in the US. But it also would involve 449 00:29:12.839 --> 00:29:16.519 massive bureaucratic issue of trying to go out and figure 450 00:29:16.519 --> 00:29:20.559 out who has dual citizenship. So for all those reasons, 451 00:29:20.599 --> 00:29:22.400 I don't think it's going to happen. But it is 452 00:29:22.440 --> 00:29:27.359 an interesting idea. And you know, I understand people's heritage, 453 00:29:27.359 --> 00:29:29.480 and it's fine to be happy about your heritage, but 454 00:29:30.599 --> 00:29:35.279 you know, I never looked at any of that kind 455 00:29:35.359 --> 00:29:37.799 of stuff when I met Karen. I've told the story before, 456 00:29:38.279 --> 00:29:42.000 and New York basically everybody there is kind of sees 457 00:29:42.039 --> 00:29:45.039 themselves as having dual citizenship, whether they got the citizenship 458 00:29:45.119 --> 00:29:47.559 or not, because they are only usually a couple of 459 00:29:47.559 --> 00:29:50.759 generations removed. At least it was that way when Karen 460 00:29:50.880 --> 00:29:54.359 was young, and so it was that way on both 461 00:29:54.400 --> 00:29:58.240 sides of her parents' family. They had come over last 462 00:29:58.359 --> 00:30:03.039 a couple of generations from Europe. And so when we 463 00:30:03.079 --> 00:30:05.079 met and were dating for a while, she yes, she said, 464 00:30:05.119 --> 00:30:08.279 So what are you? I said on an American? She said, Yeah, 465 00:30:08.279 --> 00:30:10.440 this is my dad says, but no, seriously, what are you? 466 00:30:11.000 --> 00:30:13.400 I'm an American. I don't know where I come from. I'm 467 00:30:13.400 --> 00:30:17.759 just an American mongrel that's been here for a long time. Well, 468 00:30:17.759 --> 00:30:19.880 we're going to take a quick break, Travis, you want 469 00:30:19.920 --> 00:30:21.480 to cover some of the comments. 470 00:30:21.039 --> 00:30:23.960 Here, Yeah, to five tire. In seventeen seventy six is 471 00:30:23.960 --> 00:30:26.960 about thirty thousand gun desks in America annually. Fifty to 472 00:30:27.000 --> 00:30:29.480 sixty percent of those deaths is by suicide, and majority 473 00:30:29.480 --> 00:30:31.400 of the rest are committed by thugs in cities who 474 00:30:31.440 --> 00:30:34.359 are allowed to run loose unfettered to tear rise society. 475 00:30:34.759 --> 00:30:36.799 Compare that to the one to two million lives who 476 00:30:36.799 --> 00:30:38.799 were saved by guns through self defense. 477 00:30:39.319 --> 00:30:41.359 That's right. I've told the story many times. I won't 478 00:30:41.400 --> 00:30:48.640 tell it again, but my grandfather, his brother in law, 479 00:30:49.480 --> 00:30:51.160 was killed in a robbery with what the two of 480 00:30:51.160 --> 00:30:53.920 them were doing. They were collecting rent back in the 481 00:30:53.920 --> 00:30:57.559 early called the twentieth century when cash was king, and 482 00:30:57.599 --> 00:31:00.440 they were they were hired to go around and rent 483 00:31:00.440 --> 00:31:02.640 in an area that was really pretty poor. So they 484 00:31:02.640 --> 00:31:05.799 would go on Friday nights, always at the same time, 485 00:31:05.839 --> 00:31:08.119 because that's after people got paid in cash. They would 486 00:31:08.119 --> 00:31:11.000 go around and collect the rent in cash before they 487 00:31:11.079 --> 00:31:14.400 spent it, maybe on drink or something like that. And 488 00:31:14.799 --> 00:31:19.039 so his brother in law was killed and they almost 489 00:31:19.079 --> 00:31:20.519 did the same thing to him, but he caught him 490 00:31:20.559 --> 00:31:25.640 and he had always carried a pistol and he stopped it. 491 00:31:25.680 --> 00:31:28.200 And of course that was never reported, but it saved 492 00:31:28.200 --> 00:31:28.640 his life. 493 00:31:29.240 --> 00:31:34.759 So, yeah, we have Christian constitutional conservative. The police do 494 00:31:34.839 --> 00:31:37.079 not stop crime. They were a boot crime after the fact, 495 00:31:37.079 --> 00:31:39.680 and the detectives investigate. But what would you care if 496 00:31:39.720 --> 00:31:40.599 you're already dead? 497 00:31:40.839 --> 00:31:41.359 That's right? 498 00:31:42.200 --> 00:31:45.920 Yeah, Okay, So that policy from seven to eleven was 499 00:31:46.119 --> 00:31:50.759 about the workers' safety. Quote unquote, whereas they're coming after 500 00:31:50.799 --> 00:31:54.039 her because this guy is saying he's going to cut 501 00:31:54.079 --> 00:31:58.599 her head off, he's attacking her, and so what she's 502 00:31:58.680 --> 00:32:00.880 supposed to just go along with it for her safety. 503 00:32:01.440 --> 00:32:04.720 They're going to follow that policy rigidly, whether it makes 504 00:32:04.720 --> 00:32:07.640 any sense or not. And that's another thing that we saw. 505 00:32:07.720 --> 00:32:10.079 You know, with a vaccine, we've got a policy. We 506 00:32:10.079 --> 00:32:11.920 don't care where the vaccine works, we don't care if 507 00:32:11.920 --> 00:32:13.880 it's safe. That's our policy. We're going to follow it. 508 00:32:14.599 --> 00:32:18.039 And so, you know, that's just the way these companies work. 509 00:32:19.279 --> 00:32:23.000 We have Brandon Bennett Auto Pen has been president since 510 00:32:23.000 --> 00:32:23.799 it was invented. 511 00:32:25.000 --> 00:32:25.559 Wally Wall. 512 00:32:26.000 --> 00:32:30.519 Silver is extracted when mining other materials. Yes, Pezonovonte seventeen 513 00:32:30.640 --> 00:32:33.240 seventy six. Studies have shown that concealed carry holders are 514 00:32:33.319 --> 00:32:36.720 less likely to be criminals than police officers. Well, the 515 00:32:36.720 --> 00:32:38.680 amount of hoops you have to jump through to become 516 00:32:38.680 --> 00:32:43.680 a concealed carry holder shows you are actually highly invested 517 00:32:43.759 --> 00:32:46.759 in complying with their absurd laws. You are one of 518 00:32:46.839 --> 00:32:50.640 the most law abiding citizens out there. Big brit Is 519 00:32:50.680 --> 00:32:52.640 back again. I've seen videos of people getting silver and 520 00:32:52.680 --> 00:32:56.200 gold from scrap circuit boards, and you can do it yourself. 521 00:32:56.200 --> 00:32:58.319 But the chemicals are dangerous and toxic. 522 00:33:00.039 --> 00:33:00.200 I know. 523 00:33:00.240 --> 00:33:03.359 That's the thing about chemistry. I never liked chemistry, and 524 00:33:03.359 --> 00:33:05.680 I always felt like I was going to die breathing 525 00:33:05.720 --> 00:33:08.519 this stuff, you know, and so I just stayed away 526 00:33:08.519 --> 00:33:08.759 from it. 527 00:33:08.839 --> 00:33:10.440 I didn't really understand it. I didn't like it. 528 00:33:10.480 --> 00:33:13.400 I didn't trust it. I guess that's why I feel 529 00:33:13.400 --> 00:33:16.720 the way that I do about pharmaceuticals. So big bread 530 00:33:16.759 --> 00:33:18.240 back again, he said, yeah, you can do it with 531 00:33:18.279 --> 00:33:21.599 your own where I read that one.

AI I didn't realize American Enterprise Institute anything 566 00:37:54.239 --> 00:37:56.400 to do with this COVID than it turns out from 567 00:37:56.440 --> 00:38:01.480 what this author, Brett Swanson says on Brownstone that AEI 568 00:38:01.760 --> 00:38:05.079 was working very closely with all I knew, of course 569 00:38:05.239 --> 00:38:07.760 Johns Hopkins and how they've been involved in this stuff 570 00:38:07.800 --> 00:38:11.280 from the very beginning, even from Dark Winter. He points 571 00:38:11.280 --> 00:38:14.599 out here, you know they were co hosting all this 572 00:38:15.400 --> 00:38:17.599 event two to one with Bill and Melinda Gates, the 573 00:38:17.679 --> 00:38:20.840 World Economic Form and so forth, but they co hosted 574 00:38:21.079 --> 00:38:24.599 Dark Winter with the CIA and Faucci and all the 575 00:38:24.639 --> 00:38:26.719 rest of this stuff. So JOHNS. Hopkins has been at 576 00:38:26.760 --> 00:38:31.159 the epicenter of this stuff the entire time. But he 577 00:38:31.239 --> 00:38:34.920 points out that both of these organizations were very central 578 00:38:35.000 --> 00:38:38.360 to this fraud at the beginning. Said, given their vocal 579 00:38:38.400 --> 00:38:44.880 insistence on maximal COVID impositions, Hopkins and AEI deserve credit 580 00:38:44.920 --> 00:38:47.280 for finally highlighting and opposing view. 581 00:38:48.440 --> 00:38:49.159 And so. 582 00:38:50.599 --> 00:38:53.679 It's I was really surprised and disappointed to see that. 583 00:38:53.719 --> 00:38:57.199 You know, American Enterprise Institute is when it comes to 584 00:38:57.239 --> 00:39:01.840 things like especially economic freedom, they've been very good and 585 00:39:02.360 --> 00:39:04.840 free speech things like that. They've been good as well 586 00:39:04.880 --> 00:39:09.079 with that. But when you when you look at this, 587 00:39:10.360 --> 00:39:13.679 you know they had also been involved in pushing back 588 00:39:13.719 --> 00:39:16.599 against a lot of the climate fraud done by Michael 589 00:39:16.639 --> 00:39:19.079 Mann and others. So I was very disappointed to see 590 00:39:19.119 --> 00:39:23.639 that they were part of this mcguffin. In this report, 591 00:39:23.840 --> 00:39:28.599 he points out how Key Scott Gottlieb was He was 592 00:39:28.599 --> 00:39:32.639 a key Republican demanding the lockdowns. Now, the person whose 593 00:39:32.719 --> 00:39:35.840 name is not in here is Trump. But Scott Gottlieb 594 00:39:36.000 --> 00:39:40.880 was Trump's FDA guy, and then he went to Pfizer afterwards, 595 00:39:41.840 --> 00:39:46.639 so he is I didn't realize that he was tied 596 00:39:46.679 --> 00:39:50.840 into a EI. He's an AI fellow as well as 597 00:39:50.880 --> 00:39:55.880 former commissioner of the FDA under Trump, and so he was. 598 00:39:56.000 --> 00:39:59.800 He co authored with JOHNS. Hopkins some of their specialists, 599 00:39:59.800 --> 00:40:01.519 the lockdown blueprint. 600 00:40:03.199 --> 00:40:03.559 Folks. 601 00:40:03.639 --> 00:40:06.559 This is we have to understand and remember who did this. 602 00:40:07.559 --> 00:40:10.880 And again, all of these things, all these threads point 603 00:40:10.960 --> 00:40:15.320 back to Trump as being the key puppet whose strings 604 00:40:15.320 --> 00:40:18.000 are being pulled by these globalist organizations and people like 605 00:40:18.559 --> 00:40:22.039 Bill Gates to do all of this stuff. John Hellerstet, 606 00:40:22.400 --> 00:40:26.719 the former Texas Health commissioner, said, I am frankly befuddled 607 00:40:26.840 --> 00:40:29.239 by the notion that there should have been more debate. 608 00:40:29.920 --> 00:40:32.360 Can you believe that you just do all this stuff? 609 00:40:32.440 --> 00:40:33.480 Let's not talk about this. 610 00:40:34.039 --> 00:40:37.480 There should have been less debate, he said, right, be 611 00:40:37.559 --> 00:40:40.840 fuddled to think that should have been more debate. He 612 00:40:40.920 --> 00:40:45.199 said that there should have been more opposite opinions. He said, 613 00:40:45.519 --> 00:40:49.320 somebody had to decide. So, hey, somebody's got to make 614 00:40:49.360 --> 00:40:49.920 this decision. 615 00:40:49.960 --> 00:40:50.440 It'll be me. 616 00:40:50.960 --> 00:40:54.199 I'll decide what's best for you. How about that since 617 00:40:54.199 --> 00:40:57.159 I'm in a position of power. That was the Texas 618 00:40:57.159 --> 00:41:04.119 Health Commissioner under Abbott, And he praised Abbott because he 619 00:41:04.119 --> 00:41:07.280 said he quote never pushed back on the science, meaning 620 00:41:07.320 --> 00:41:11.760 that he never pushed back on this authoritarian guy who 621 00:41:11.800 --> 00:41:16.320 decides that he doesn't need to have any advice to anybody. 622 00:41:16.360 --> 00:41:19.599 You know, the Bible tells us that wisdom has many counselors. 623 00:41:20.400 --> 00:41:24.480 This guy is not a wise man. Informed consent, he 624 00:41:24.519 --> 00:41:27.559 will decide that for you. Right, He doesn't need your 625 00:41:27.760 --> 00:41:29.280 You don't need to be informed, He doesn't need to 626 00:41:29.320 --> 00:41:32.639 be informed. He doesn't need your consent. He needs your obedience, 627 00:41:33.280 --> 00:41:37.679 and he needed the governor's obedience, which was easily handed 628 00:41:37.719 --> 00:41:40.880 to him as well. Within two years, they injected billions 629 00:41:40.920 --> 00:41:45.079 of people with radically experimented gene therapies. Imperfect communication and 630 00:41:45.159 --> 00:41:49.440 organization are often tactics of bureaucratic deflection, and that's what 631 00:41:49.440 --> 00:41:52.199 they're saying. This is this narrative. Well, you know, it 632 00:41:52.239 --> 00:41:54.519 came out of the lab mistakenly. Yeah, we shouldn't have 633 00:41:54.559 --> 00:41:58.119 been playing around that stuff. But hey, nobody's bad. We 634 00:41:58.119 --> 00:42:00.920 did the best that we could. Next time, we'll do more. 635 00:42:01.199 --> 00:42:03.639 Next time, we'll do it faster. That was our only problem, 636 00:42:04.159 --> 00:42:06.480 and that's why I pushed that back so hard on 637 00:42:06.519 --> 00:42:09.119 this thing. That's why I did the monster jab thing. 638 00:42:10.280 --> 00:42:13.559 I don't really care whether people give me credit for 639 00:42:13.599 --> 00:42:15.760 being right at the beginning or not. Actually I was, 640 00:42:16.639 --> 00:42:19.880 but it doesn't matter to me. I want to stop 641 00:42:20.039 --> 00:42:23.079 this happening again. I want to speak these people to 642 00:42:23.079 --> 00:42:28.719 be accountable for what they did. The AI Hopkins participants, 643 00:42:28.800 --> 00:42:32.280 unfortunately didn't do science. In fact, there was almost no 644 00:42:32.400 --> 00:42:37.440 discussion of biology, medicine, or data. There was no debate 645 00:42:37.599 --> 00:42:40.840 over vaccine mandates or there ill effects, no mention of 646 00:42:40.880 --> 00:42:46.639 the denial of early treatment with safe, cheap and generic drugs. 647 00:42:47.280 --> 00:42:50.559 Nor was there any mention of the inflation that was 648 00:42:50.639 --> 00:42:55.320 unleashed by eight trillion dollars in extra federal spending. And 649 00:42:55.360 --> 00:42:57.199 then we could go down the list of all the 650 00:42:57.239 --> 00:43:01.400 people and the businesses that were harmed the lockdown. It's 651 00:43:01.400 --> 00:43:03.639 just one of the most insane things. That could never 652 00:43:03.920 --> 00:43:07.440 imagine that somebody could do this in America, number one, 653 00:43:08.079 --> 00:43:09.559 and that they could get away with it, that the 654 00:43:09.599 --> 00:43:12.199 American public would let them get away with it. And 655 00:43:12.280 --> 00:43:14.599 the rare case that a public health official policy maker 656 00:43:14.679 --> 00:43:18.400 is confronted with these figures, they usually mumble long COVID 657 00:43:18.719 --> 00:43:23.199 and they quickly changed the subject. In fact, there is 658 00:43:23.280 --> 00:43:26.519 no mystery as to why this is happening. We now 659 00:43:26.559 --> 00:43:31.119 have the autopsies, We now have four thousand published case reports, 660 00:43:31.679 --> 00:43:34.760 and we understand the microbiology of these deaths and these injuries. 661 00:43:35.440 --> 00:43:39.519 You know, it's easier for somebody who is looking at 662 00:43:39.559 --> 00:43:42.679 the politics of this to understand it because it wasn't 663 00:43:42.719 --> 00:43:45.599 about medicine, it wasn't about science. And even the people 664 00:43:45.599 --> 00:43:48.159 who were honest about it and who have gone back 665 00:43:48.199 --> 00:43:51.559 and discovered the you know, gone through and done the 666 00:43:51.599 --> 00:43:55.639 studies and have discovered the mechanisms of how this works. 667 00:43:57.480 --> 00:43:59.800 You could understand this if you understood human nature and 668 00:44:00.159 --> 00:44:04.000 understand things going back to dark winter. You saw the 669 00:44:04.039 --> 00:44:06.679 pattern and you could see the scam. And that's what 670 00:44:06.719 --> 00:44:09.400 it was. It wasn't medical, it wasn't science. It was 671 00:44:09.440 --> 00:44:12.599 a political scam. And so the people who are political 672 00:44:12.639 --> 00:44:15.760 analysts could catch on to this more quickly than even 673 00:44:15.800 --> 00:44:22.000 the honest doctors and scientists could. So upon vaccination, billions 674 00:44:22.119 --> 00:44:27.039 of lipid nanoparticles containing modified mRNA enter tissues all over 675 00:44:27.079 --> 00:44:29.960 the body. The mRNA instructure cells to produce a spike 676 00:44:30.039 --> 00:44:33.719 protein and to display it on the cell surface. Our 677 00:44:33.800 --> 00:44:37.920 immune systems detect the foreign spike protein as unwelcome invader. Then, 678 00:44:38.039 --> 00:44:42.320 just as God intended, not nature, they write nature, our 679 00:44:42.440 --> 00:44:47.000 killer lymphocytes target those infected cells for destruction. If those 680 00:44:47.000 --> 00:44:49.519 destroyed cells are in your dultoid muscle, you get a 681 00:44:49.559 --> 00:44:53.840 sore shoulder. Pfizer mistakenly assured us that that's the worst 682 00:44:53.840 --> 00:44:58.679 that would happen. They were not mistaken. Unfortunately, they knew 683 00:44:58.679 --> 00:45:01.800 exactly what they were doing. Meanwhile, a group of European 684 00:45:01.840 --> 00:45:05.519 pathologists have performed seventy five autopsies on Germans who died 685 00:45:06.000 --> 00:45:10.599 soon after vaccination. They found both mRNA spike protein and 686 00:45:10.880 --> 00:45:19.320 attacking lymphocytes in the brain, lung, hearts, kidneys, adrenal glands, ovaries, testes, liver, thyroid, prostrate, spleen, 687 00:45:19.960 --> 00:45:24.119 and blood vessels large and small from aorda to capillaries. 688 00:45:24.760 --> 00:45:28.119 Of the seventy five decedents, they judged that at least 689 00:45:28.199 --> 00:45:32.880 fifty eight or seventy seven percent of them died from 690 00:45:33.320 --> 00:45:36.760 the mRNA vaccine, not just with it, but from it. 691 00:45:37.800 --> 00:45:41.360 Thirty one of those cases were sudden cardiac deaths, sixteen 692 00:45:41.400 --> 00:45:46.840 from blood vessel damage, fifteen from myocarditis. None of these 693 00:45:46.880 --> 00:45:50.880 cases were initially reported as vaccine deaths, let alone myocarditis, 694 00:45:51.320 --> 00:45:55.119 which helps to demonstrate the monumental rate of undercounting that 695 00:45:55.199 --> 00:46:00.559 has underpinned the denial of what has been done. And 696 00:46:00.559 --> 00:46:02.800 I'll say the denial of the Trump shots instead of 697 00:46:02.840 --> 00:46:05.760 the mRNA. I don't think Trump is mentioned once in here, 698 00:46:05.880 --> 00:46:10.920 and that's a big issue. John Bodhoyin, an electrical engineer 699 00:46:10.960 --> 00:46:16.639 from Massachusetts, obtained digital death certificate files from several states 700 00:46:16.639 --> 00:46:20.480 stretching back a decade beyond the better known stroke and 701 00:46:20.559 --> 00:46:24.480 cardiac damage. He found an even stronger signal of vaccine 702 00:46:24.480 --> 00:46:29.800 harm astronomical rates of fatal acute kidney injury also known 703 00:46:29.840 --> 00:46:34.519 as acute renal failure, and this was something that was 704 00:46:34.559 --> 00:46:37.440 also picked up. A same strong signal was picked up 705 00:46:37.440 --> 00:46:40.440 by South Korean scientists. They looked at one hundred and 706 00:46:40.559 --> 00:46:45.440 twenty million records that extended over a fifty year period, 707 00:46:45.960 --> 00:46:49.199 and they found numerous kidney harms associated with the mRNA 708 00:46:49.360 --> 00:46:53.119 COVID vaccines, a one hundred and thirty eight percent increase 709 00:46:53.280 --> 00:46:57.519 in acute renal failure and a and forty one percent 710 00:46:57.559 --> 00:47:04.079 increase in gloomer rulo nephritis. I'm not sure what that is, 711 00:47:05.000 --> 00:47:07.519 but it is not good. 712 00:47:08.000 --> 00:47:10.119 It sounds unpleasant just on the face of it. 713 00:47:10.760 --> 00:47:17.280 One hundred and forty three increase in tubulo interstitial nephritis. Again, 714 00:47:17.320 --> 00:47:21.119 that's going to be kidneys, I think. So they went 715 00:47:21.159 --> 00:47:23.760 back over fifty years and they looked at how this 716 00:47:23.880 --> 00:47:28.360 all of a sudden increased correlated with the mRNA vaccine. 717 00:47:29.559 --> 00:47:33.639 The guy in the US, the electrical engineer, expanded his 718 00:47:33.679 --> 00:47:37.119 analysis to all fifty states estimated that the sudden kidney 719 00:47:37.119 --> 00:47:41.519 failure deaths associated with COVID vaccines in the US approached two 720 00:47:41.639 --> 00:47:45.079 hundred and fifty thousand. Think about that next time you 721 00:47:45.079 --> 00:47:50.320 hear Trump brag about it, and he estimates that extrapolating 722 00:47:50.400 --> 00:47:54.400 that out worldwide, one and a quarter million deaths just 723 00:47:54.440 --> 00:47:59.599 from the kidney failure from the Trump shot. Trump the 724 00:47:59.679 --> 00:48:04.119 mass murderer, that people voted for him and supported him. 725 00:48:04.280 --> 00:48:07.960 This is why you know when Marjorie Tellergreen says, people 726 00:48:08.000 --> 00:48:11.079 who are criticizing her, say, you're not maga and all 727 00:48:11.119 --> 00:48:13.239 of a sudden, she says, always Maga from day one. 728 00:48:14.320 --> 00:48:15.960 Green you raised the question of whether or not the 729 00:48:16.119 --> 00:48:19.159 Justice Department will actually release these files. Do you take 730 00:48:19.159 --> 00:48:21.320 the President at his word when he says he's going 731 00:48:21.360 --> 00:48:22.320 to sign this villain? 732 00:48:22.360 --> 00:48:24.880 Do you have confidence that these files will actually be released. 733 00:48:25.960 --> 00:48:31.440 I only take people's actions seriously, no longer words. And 734 00:48:31.440 --> 00:48:33.559 what do you think the President's appen And I'll tell 735 00:48:33.639 --> 00:48:37.400 you because I'm I wasn't a Johnny come lately to 736 00:48:37.480 --> 00:48:41.159 the Maga train. I was day one, twenty fifteen. And 737 00:48:41.199 --> 00:48:44.880 there's a big difference in those Americans and those that 738 00:48:45.440 --> 00:48:48.599 decided to support President Trump later on. And I'll tell 739 00:48:48.599 --> 00:48:52.119 you right now, this has been one of the most 740 00:48:52.239 --> 00:48:56.360 destructive things to Maga is watched. 741 00:48:57.960 --> 00:49:01.320 Yeah, well again, good, she says. I don't pay attention 742 00:49:01.320 --> 00:49:03.239 to what people say anymore. Pay attention to what they do. 743 00:49:03.280 --> 00:49:05.599 You should have paid attention to that all the way along. 744 00:49:05.880 --> 00:49:08.400 You should have pay attention to that twenty twenty when 745 00:49:08.400 --> 00:49:10.599 he supported this guy, after what he was doing, the 746 00:49:10.639 --> 00:49:13.880 actions that he was doing. A new actuarial study out 747 00:49:13.960 --> 00:49:17.880 of Germany found a strong positive correlation between COVID vaccination 748 00:49:18.039 --> 00:49:21.320 and excess mortality. We've seen this over and over again. 749 00:49:21.360 --> 00:49:24.760 This is just yet another study. This is hindsight. We 750 00:49:24.800 --> 00:49:27.599 knew what was happening because we knew what the politics 751 00:49:27.599 --> 00:49:31.599 of this were was, and we knew what they had 752 00:49:31.639 --> 00:49:35.039 been practicing for twenty years, and it was just a 753 00:49:35.039 --> 00:49:40.519 continuation of the fraud to enact a police surveillance state 754 00:49:41.159 --> 00:49:44.119 that began with nine to eleven. This is another inside job, 755 00:49:44.159 --> 00:49:48.840 the ultimate inside job, right inside your body. Japan and 756 00:49:48.880 --> 00:49:53.280 dozens of other highly vaccinated nations have suffered his identical patterns. 757 00:49:53.280 --> 00:49:57.719 The study of UK data they compared vaccinated with unvaccinated 758 00:49:58.199 --> 00:50:01.599 and those with one or two doses, show that a 759 00:50:01.639 --> 00:50:06.280 substantially higher risk of all cause deaths. Nigerian scientists looked 760 00:50:06.320 --> 00:50:10.920 at this and said, there is a quote paradoxical increase 761 00:50:11.840 --> 00:50:18.639 in COVID nineteen deaths with vaccination coverage. Paradoxical. Italian researchers 762 00:50:18.639 --> 00:50:21.400 analyzed all two nand and forty five thousand residents of 763 00:50:21.480 --> 00:50:27.079 one province, the Pescara Province. They found significant mortality hazard 764 00:50:27.199 --> 00:50:32.599 ratios of one hundred and forty percent worse and ninety 765 00:50:32.599 --> 00:50:35.679 eight percent worse for those vaccinated with one or two doses. 766 00:50:37.320 --> 00:50:40.119 Ninety eight percent worse for one dose one hundred and 767 00:50:40.119 --> 00:50:42.960 forty eight percent worse for two. They concluded that the 768 00:50:43.000 --> 00:50:47.519 subjects vaccinated with two doses lost thirty seven percent of 769 00:50:47.559 --> 00:50:53.639 life expectancy compared to the unvaccinated population. And so so 770 00:50:53.840 --> 00:50:58.079 we've not even discussed the serious DNA contamination of both 771 00:50:58.119 --> 00:51:00.199 them are in A vaccines and the dangers include vision 772 00:51:00.280 --> 00:51:04.559 of the SV forty enhancer and the Pfizer vaccine and something. 773 00:51:04.599 --> 00:51:07.760 The question is, you know why he hasn't our health 774 00:51:07.880 --> 00:51:12.639 champion RFK Junior stopped this, you know? And again it 775 00:51:12.760 --> 00:51:16.400 is because of the special place the vaccines have been 776 00:51:16.440 --> 00:51:20.719 given in the medical mythology and you're not allowed to 777 00:51:21.039 --> 00:51:25.639 attack it. It is the lynch pen of their fraud 778 00:51:25.719 --> 00:51:30.679 about how medicine has improved our life. And so that's 779 00:51:30.679 --> 00:51:33.280 why this is not happening, I believe. And of course 780 00:51:33.280 --> 00:51:36.960 the politics and the money, but that is all tied 781 00:51:37.039 --> 00:51:40.440 up with this mythology as well. Scott Gottlieb wrote some 782 00:51:40.599 --> 00:51:44.400 thirty six COVID commentaries in the Wall Street Journal, He 783 00:51:44.480 --> 00:51:48.880 made one hundred and eighty five TV appearances, and Gottlieb 784 00:51:48.960 --> 00:51:52.639 had even secretly collaborated with A Biden White House to 785 00:51:52.679 --> 00:51:59.159 believe big tech firms into censoring Pfizer vaccine critics. Yeah, 786 00:51:59.360 --> 00:52:03.960 well again. You know, I got shut down in May 787 00:52:04.159 --> 00:52:09.679 of twenty twenty one. No reason given by PayPal and Vemo. 788 00:52:10.440 --> 00:52:16.800 It's just you see this happening, and it was all 789 00:52:16.960 --> 00:52:19.079 we knew it was happening. We knew it was a lie. 790 00:52:20.039 --> 00:52:24.480 Sam Altman now is suddenly terrified about the position of 791 00:52:24.519 --> 00:52:28.000 his company. Of course, they were there early on with 792 00:52:28.119 --> 00:52:30.719 the chat programs. As a matter of fact, Chat GPT 793 00:52:30.920 --> 00:52:35.199 has almost become like a generic for the AI chat programs. 794 00:52:36.159 --> 00:52:42.400 Google CEO Sundar Peachi issued a code read because he 795 00:52:42.480 --> 00:52:45.719 saw this as a threat to their core business of 796 00:52:45.840 --> 00:52:50.719 search engines, and of course search engine designed to hide things, 797 00:52:51.440 --> 00:52:53.679 and understand they're going to do the same thing with AI. 798 00:52:54.400 --> 00:52:57.320 They're training it to push their narrative, they're training it 799 00:52:57.360 --> 00:52:59.840 to conceal stuff. If you're going to be a critic 800 00:52:59.840 --> 00:53:02.320 of vaccines. I remember when it first came out. First 801 00:53:02.360 --> 00:53:05.079 thing I did was I asked it things about the 802 00:53:05.119 --> 00:53:08.079 pandemic and COVID and vaccines, and it's like, okay, I'm 803 00:53:08.119 --> 00:53:12.280 done with this. I don't trust this at all. But 804 00:53:12.880 --> 00:53:15.320 so now the shoes on the other foot. Now, Sam 805 00:53:15.360 --> 00:53:18.199 Altman is the one who is issuing a code read 806 00:53:18.400 --> 00:53:21.000 in his memo to employees this week, as Wall Street 807 00:53:21.039 --> 00:53:24.559 Journal reports urging staffers to improve the quality of the 808 00:53:24.719 --> 00:53:28.639 chatbot even at the costs of delaying other projects. It's 809 00:53:28.679 --> 00:53:31.320 a clear sign yet that Altman and open ai are 810 00:53:31.320 --> 00:53:34.679 feeling an immense level of pressure and light of the 811 00:53:34.719 --> 00:53:37.119 steep competition that's done a lot of catching up since 812 00:53:37.199 --> 00:53:41.800 chat GPT was released in late twenty twenty two. Google 813 00:53:41.800 --> 00:53:47.679 in particular has had a massive pr win by putting 814 00:53:47.719 --> 00:53:52.079 out things like Nano Banana that has brought in a 815 00:53:52.119 --> 00:53:56.679 lot of people to their fold to once again leave 816 00:53:56.719 --> 00:54:00.840 its competition behind. Open ai has committed to spending well 817 00:54:00.880 --> 00:54:06.519 over a trillion dollars on data center buildouts. Let me 818 00:54:06.559 --> 00:54:11.039 just say that it was I forget who it was 819 00:54:11.280 --> 00:54:15.559 said it. You know, Coase, Brian Shall Hobby has been 820 00:54:15.800 --> 00:54:20.840 on this fraud of you know, the AI is going 821 00:54:20.920 --> 00:54:22.800 to rule the world and we're all going to just 822 00:54:22.840 --> 00:54:26.519 be collecting UBI checks and all the rest of this stuff. 823 00:54:26.559 --> 00:54:29.960 He said, We've been sold this AI thing. This is 824 00:54:30.000 --> 00:54:33.960 now the third time that they pushed a a science 825 00:54:33.960 --> 00:54:39.000 fiction narrative on us. But as one person said, you know, 826 00:54:39.400 --> 00:54:42.400 spending a lot of money, spending a trillion dollars on 827 00:54:42.639 --> 00:54:48.360 building out AI data centers is not a it's not 828 00:54:48.400 --> 00:54:52.239 making them any money. It's not useful for people, and 829 00:54:52.280 --> 00:54:56.000 it's not making them any money either. How sustainable is this? 830 00:54:56.800 --> 00:55:03.000 So by having this new image generator, nano Banana, which 831 00:55:03.039 --> 00:55:07.360 basically allows you to without having to learn a lot 832 00:55:07.360 --> 00:55:09.960 of techniques to do photoshop, editing and things like that, 833 00:55:10.000 --> 00:55:12.440 you can go in with a prompt and you can say, 834 00:55:12.440 --> 00:55:15.159 you know, remove this item, and it understands what you're 835 00:55:15.159 --> 00:55:18.119 talking about and it does it for you. And so 836 00:55:18.519 --> 00:55:20.440 that is a very powerful tool not to have to 837 00:55:20.480 --> 00:55:24.039 go through and use photoshop or equivalent. 838 00:55:24.360 --> 00:55:27.679 Yeah, that sort of work is extremely tedious in the photoshop, 839 00:55:27.800 --> 00:55:31.920 getting in there, masking things out, making sure that if yeah, 840 00:55:31.960 --> 00:55:34.519 whatever you're putting back over top matches what's there, it 841 00:55:34.519 --> 00:55:38.320 becomes really really annoying. This is where AI is incredibly useful. 842 00:55:38.440 --> 00:55:41.199 Yeah, even if you know how to do all that stuff, 843 00:55:41.239 --> 00:55:43.280 it's still a massive time. 844 00:55:43.119 --> 00:55:45.280 Saver to use nano Bana, Yeah, or. 845 00:55:45.280 --> 00:55:48.400 Something similar like Quinn imagetic to twenty five nine. 846 00:55:48.960 --> 00:55:52.000 And so they have seen because of that, Google has 847 00:55:52.039 --> 00:55:56.000 seen issuesers grow from four four hundred and fifty million 848 00:55:56.039 --> 00:55:59.360 in July to six hundred and fifty million in October. 849 00:56:00.119 --> 00:56:03.840 Anthropic meanwhile, it is also growing in popularity with business customers, 850 00:56:04.400 --> 00:56:08.239 and so they're feeling the heat at Open AI. And 851 00:56:08.280 --> 00:56:09.599 I got to say, you know, one of the most 852 00:56:09.719 --> 00:56:13.880 reprehensible people I've seen in terms of these kind of 853 00:56:13.960 --> 00:56:17.360 dystopian projects has been Sam Altman. First time I ever 854 00:56:17.400 --> 00:56:20.360 heard about this guy, he had world Coin. Remember that 855 00:56:20.559 --> 00:56:23.480 it's a crypto coin that he created. It's like his 856 00:56:23.599 --> 00:56:26.360 meme coin. And he would give you some of these 857 00:56:26.920 --> 00:56:30.199 world coins as a credit as a payment if you 858 00:56:30.199 --> 00:56:34.079 would allow him to scan your eyes and put you 859 00:56:34.360 --> 00:56:36.880 in a global biometric database that then he can make 860 00:56:36.880 --> 00:56:38.719 a lot of money off of. Right, So I went 861 00:56:38.760 --> 00:56:42.679 around with this orb you know, this ball, and you 862 00:56:42.760 --> 00:56:46.159 look into the ball and then they capture your retinal 863 00:56:46.159 --> 00:56:48.280 image or whatever it is that they're capturing about your 864 00:56:48.280 --> 00:56:50.480 eye and put it in their database, and then he 865 00:56:50.519 --> 00:56:55.039 gives you a couple of coins. What is that worth? 866 00:56:55.920 --> 00:57:01.119 And of course he is also now working to do 867 00:57:01.320 --> 00:57:05.480 test tube babies or basically the Brave New World hatcheries 868 00:57:06.639 --> 00:57:11.039 and saying that we're going to get rid of genetic disease. 869 00:57:11.679 --> 00:57:14.519 Don't believe that for a minute. That's nonsense. What they're 870 00:57:14.559 --> 00:57:18.039 trying to do is since he's a homosexual, he wants 871 00:57:18.079 --> 00:57:20.840 to make sure that they can have children. 872 00:57:21.159 --> 00:57:21.360 Right. 873 00:57:21.440 --> 00:57:24.000 That's a big driver of this as well. So all 874 00:57:24.000 --> 00:57:30.599 these different, these different dystopian agendas kind of reflect each other, 875 00:57:30.760 --> 00:57:33.480 reinforce each other, and as I said before, you've got 876 00:57:33.480 --> 00:57:36.760 this huge overlap like you would say in a ven diagram, 877 00:57:36.800 --> 00:57:40.400 except that the circles are not just intersecting at some point, 878 00:57:40.480 --> 00:57:44.159 they're now starting to converge and overlap completely with each other. 879 00:57:45.280 --> 00:57:49.840 CEO of Fortnite is furious that Steam is labeling games 880 00:57:49.920 --> 00:57:53.480 with AI generated assets. He doesn't want people know that 881 00:57:53.480 --> 00:57:57.719 he's using AI to generate the stuff. There so so much, 882 00:57:57.760 --> 00:58:02.039 so much for transparency. But a new MIT study comes 883 00:58:02.119 --> 00:58:06.199 out and pens the number at about twenty million American 884 00:58:06.280 --> 00:58:09.920 workers they say can be replaced right now with AI. 885 00:58:11.199 --> 00:58:13.960 Think about that, there's about one hundred and sixty million 886 00:58:14.039 --> 00:58:16.760 jobs in total in the US, So they're saying that 887 00:58:16.840 --> 00:58:19.199 they believe that one out of every eight jobs, or 888 00:58:19.199 --> 00:58:24.760 about twelve and a half percent, could just instantaneously be unemployed. 889 00:58:26.079 --> 00:58:30.639 Think about the political and social implications of that overall 890 00:58:30.679 --> 00:58:36.239 for everybody. I mean, that is instant depression, instant great depression. 891 00:58:37.360 --> 00:58:41.719 So they calculated it more precisely. I'm just using round 892 00:58:41.840 --> 00:58:45.079 numbers rather than one hundred and sixty million. One hundred 893 00:58:45.079 --> 00:58:47.199 and fifty one million was their number. They come up 894 00:58:47.239 --> 00:58:49.920 still though, with one point seven. Again, it's about one 895 00:58:49.960 --> 00:58:55.239 out of every eight jobs. And here's the key reason 896 00:58:55.280 --> 00:58:58.199 why they're doing this. See they look at this, This 897 00:58:58.280 --> 00:59:00.480 is Mit looking at it, and this is the same 898 00:59:00.519 --> 00:59:03.840 way that these Silicon Valley CEOs are looking at it. 899 00:59:03.920 --> 00:59:07.199 They said, well, that could save us an estimated one 900 00:59:07.199 --> 00:59:11.039 point two trillion dollars in wages. So if we create 901 00:59:11.159 --> 00:59:16.480 a great depression, we could transfer one point two trillion 902 00:59:16.559 --> 00:59:22.119 dollars from the people in America to the CEOs who 903 00:59:22.119 --> 00:59:24.719 are running these companies, because you know it's going to 904 00:59:24.719 --> 00:59:27.039 go to them. It's not going to go to the 905 00:59:27.079 --> 00:59:29.199 people who work for them. Even it's going to go 906 00:59:29.239 --> 00:59:32.519 to them. You know, they pay themselves a thousand times 907 00:59:33.599 --> 00:59:34.639 what their workers do. 908 00:59:35.039 --> 00:59:37.280 It's such an amazing take. We could wipe out twelve 909 00:59:37.280 --> 00:59:39.440 percent of jobs. Think of the savings. 910 00:59:39.760 --> 00:59:41.880 Yeah, think of how much more money we could make 911 00:59:42.119 --> 00:59:44.719 and this is the massive transfer of wealth that we 912 00:59:45.039 --> 00:59:49.440 were looking at here. So they've got a tool that 913 00:59:49.639 --> 00:59:54.800 was developed by MIT and Oakridge National Labs simulates how 914 00:59:54.880 --> 00:59:57.960 AI could impact an American workforce of one hundred and 915 00:59:57.960 --> 01:00:01.719 fifty one million people in every state, not just in 916 01:00:01.760 --> 01:00:05.480 the tech center areas in California, or maybe even in 917 01:00:05.559 --> 01:00:09.880 Washington or whatever. The tool simulated each worker and treated 918 01:00:09.920 --> 01:00:14.800 each of them as autonomous agents, executing over thirty two 919 01:00:14.840 --> 01:00:19.519 thousand skills across three thousand counties and interacting with thousands 920 01:00:19.559 --> 01:00:22.639 of AI tools. They also tracked skills that could be 921 01:00:22.719 --> 01:00:27.199 vulnerable to today's AI systems, and they measured the wage 922 01:00:27.400 --> 01:00:31.559 value of skills that AI systems can perform within each occupation. 923 01:00:32.599 --> 01:00:36.039 Right now, disruptions from AI amount to just two point 924 01:00:36.119 --> 01:00:40.119 two percent, or about two hundred and eleven billion dollars 925 01:00:40.119 --> 01:00:43.480 in wage value. Well, that's just a tip of the iceberg, 926 01:00:43.519 --> 01:00:47.079 they said. So, I guess we could say, maybe it's 927 01:00:47.119 --> 01:00:50.519 inflated our unemployment rate by two point two percent. Just 928 01:00:50.559 --> 01:00:54.639 imagine if it inflates the unemployment rate by another twelve percent. Right, 929 01:00:55.360 --> 01:00:59.679 AI is poised to drastically upend the lives of countless 930 01:00:59.760 --> 01:01:04.519 orc and to be a part of the biggest transfer 931 01:01:04.599 --> 01:01:09.599 of wealth as well as the ultimate surveillance and control tools. 932 01:01:09.679 --> 01:01:11.760 So what's not to like about it if you are 933 01:01:12.599 --> 01:01:16.760 a Silicon Valley CEO or somebody in government, right, they 934 01:01:16.800 --> 01:01:21.800 love this stuff. China is very afraid of robots, and 935 01:01:21.840 --> 01:01:25.559 it's not because of something like this. Take a look 936 01:01:25.599 --> 01:01:28.360 at this. This is an art exhibit in Basil, Switzerland. 937 01:01:29.639 --> 01:01:33.199 Here's these robotic quadrupads. Right, somebody's got a small version 938 01:01:33.239 --> 01:01:35.880 of that. And what they did was they put mannequin heads. 939 01:01:36.159 --> 01:01:39.880 You can see Elon must there, and they got the 940 01:01:39.920 --> 01:01:44.880 heads different. Jeff Bezos, Yeah, that's right, And it's like, yeah, 941 01:01:44.920 --> 01:01:47.199 that is that is really creepy that that reminds me 942 01:01:47.239 --> 01:01:50.360 of his Mars attacks. Remember them, shouldn't scut off the 943 01:01:50.400 --> 01:01:53.840 head and put it on a dog. But they're always 944 01:01:53.880 --> 01:02:01.280 looking at ways to basically anthropomorphize the robots and everything. 945 01:02:01.280 --> 01:02:02.519 Even if they've got to put them on a four 946 01:02:02.599 --> 01:02:05.800 legged robot that's got to put a head on it. 947 01:02:06.159 --> 01:02:10.239 So the humanoid robots are becoming a concern for China, 948 01:02:10.239 --> 01:02:12.320 as I said at the top of this show, a 949 01:02:12.400 --> 01:02:15.519 concern primarily because they're starting to realize that all their 950 01:02:15.559 --> 01:02:21.280 central planning is misallocating resources. It's about time they figured 951 01:02:21.320 --> 01:02:23.280 that out. They did it with real estate in a 952 01:02:23.360 --> 01:02:27.480 big way. Chinese officials are warning that the country's humanoid 953 01:02:27.559 --> 01:02:33.159 robotics industry could be forming a massive bubble. They said 954 01:02:33.239 --> 01:02:36.079 that the extreme levels of investment could be drownding out 955 01:02:36.199 --> 01:02:38.960 other markets and research initiatives. 956 01:02:39.400 --> 01:02:40.119 But actually what. 957 01:02:40.079 --> 01:02:43.519 They're doing is they're using this as a call for 958 01:02:43.679 --> 01:02:47.800 more centralized control of competition in the marketplace by the 959 01:02:47.960 --> 01:02:51.440 Chinese government. We can't have all these different companies competing 960 01:02:51.480 --> 01:02:56.800 against each other. So the Chinese government is the worst 961 01:02:56.920 --> 01:03:00.719 enemy of the Chinese people in Chinese innovation, just like 962 01:03:00.800 --> 01:03:04.239 the American government is. And so our hope is that 963 01:03:04.280 --> 01:03:10.000 they're going to be more interventionist, more of an obstruction 964 01:03:10.119 --> 01:03:13.840 than the American government is, and to shut down innovation 965 01:03:13.880 --> 01:03:17.960 there because it's this competition with different people that is 966 01:03:18.400 --> 01:03:22.159 going to make it work or not work. So investors 967 01:03:22.159 --> 01:03:24.599 are pouring untold sums and to one hundred and fifty 968 01:03:24.679 --> 01:03:29.079 humanoid robot companies in China alone. They're producing robots that 969 01:03:29.119 --> 01:03:33.960 are extremely similar to each other, overspending that could overwhelm 970 01:03:34.000 --> 01:03:37.920 the market. Bike sharing apps, for instance, flooded the market 971 01:03:38.079 --> 01:03:43.039 in China in twenty seventeen and eighteen, and the risk 972 01:03:43.159 --> 01:03:47.119 of a bubble or certainly there. Without consolidation, China's market 973 01:03:47.159 --> 01:03:51.760 could soon be flooded with armies of largely identical humanoid robots, 974 01:03:52.400 --> 01:03:55.840 which is either a terrifying prospect considering the possibility of 975 01:03:55.880 --> 01:03:57.800 them putting us all out of work, or risks a 976 01:03:57.960 --> 01:04:01.079 market crash if it turns out they're not particularly good 977 01:04:01.159 --> 01:04:07.119 at real work. Again, this is the the two alternatives 978 01:04:07.159 --> 01:04:08.719 that most people talk about. I said, well, it's it's 979 01:04:08.719 --> 01:04:11.079 going to be a market crash and that's going to 980 01:04:11.119 --> 01:04:12.719 be really bad, but it's all out of work, or 981 01:04:12.760 --> 01:04:15.159 they will take our jobs and the corporations will fire 982 01:04:15.239 --> 01:04:20.679 us even if the AI can't do our job. And 983 01:04:21.239 --> 01:04:23.199 I think there's a third alternative, and that is that 984 01:04:23.239 --> 01:04:27.840 this is the ultimate tool of totalitarian authoritarian governments, and 985 01:04:27.880 --> 01:04:30.599 they will keep this stuff afloat one way or the other. 986 01:04:32.079 --> 01:04:35.559 I've said before, it's going to be rolled out once 987 01:04:35.599 --> 01:04:39.280 it hits that nexus of well, it's just good enough. 988 01:04:39.480 --> 01:04:42.280 It saves us a little bit of money, and sure 989 01:04:42.360 --> 01:04:45.559 it's obnoxious and annoying for the people to deal with 990 01:04:45.599 --> 01:04:49.119 the AI, but we're not losing as many people as 991 01:04:49.119 --> 01:04:51.599 we are saving money. That's how companies look at it. 992 01:04:52.039 --> 01:04:55.400 They don't care how bad your user experience gets. If 993 01:04:55.400 --> 01:04:57.920 you don't have any other place to go, if they 994 01:04:57.960 --> 01:05:01.920 are your one option, you're locked in. You got to 995 01:05:01.920 --> 01:05:03.760 put up with whatever they choose to give you. 996 01:05:04.360 --> 01:05:07.000 And the people who are making the decisions are not 997 01:05:07.079 --> 01:05:09.920 necessarily the wisest one. They don't necessarily know what's going on, 998 01:05:10.039 --> 01:05:13.679 and they do love fads. That's one of the ways 999 01:05:13.719 --> 01:05:16.800 that they get to that position. I remember when I 1000 01:05:16.840 --> 01:05:20.159 was at Data General. They wanted to have a particular 1001 01:05:20.360 --> 01:05:24.800 app that we were working on, and they had the 1002 01:05:24.880 --> 01:05:26.960 marketing guys came in and said, and we want you 1003 01:05:27.000 --> 01:05:29.400 to write it in this programming language, so we would 1004 01:05:29.440 --> 01:05:32.760 do that. You know, that's not particularly suited to this. 1005 01:05:32.840 --> 01:05:33.239 It's new. 1006 01:05:34.280 --> 01:05:36.480 That's the programming language that everybody's talking about. And we 1007 01:05:36.519 --> 01:05:37.920 want to go around and we market this thing. We 1008 01:05:37.960 --> 01:05:39.199 want to be able to tell them that was written 1009 01:05:39.199 --> 01:05:41.519 in this programming language. It makes us look good to 1010 01:05:41.519 --> 01:05:44.400 write in that. It's like, how stupid is that? But 1011 01:05:44.480 --> 01:05:48.679 you know it's the tail wagging the dog, so you know, 1012 01:05:48.880 --> 01:05:50.360 it's that type of thing. You know, we want to 1013 01:05:50.360 --> 01:05:52.639 tell O, look, we're using AI. Look at how progressive 1014 01:05:52.679 --> 01:05:53.199 we are here. 1015 01:05:53.199 --> 01:05:56.519 Also, if these companies weren't willing to make this switch 1016 01:05:56.719 --> 01:05:59.639 and worse than your experience, they wouldn't have shipped all 1017 01:05:59.760 --> 01:06:03.719 of the help desk, support for everything off to whatever 1018 01:06:03.760 --> 01:06:06.800 foreign country they chose. They've already done this sort of 1019 01:06:06.840 --> 01:06:10.360 thing once before. They've worsened your experience to make things 1020 01:06:10.440 --> 01:06:14.000 cheaper and easier for them. They simply, you know, they 1021 01:06:14.039 --> 01:06:16.840 basically don't provide support at this point. Do you call 1022 01:06:16.880 --> 01:06:19.320 a line and you get run around for hours and 1023 01:06:19.440 --> 01:06:22.280 you eventually find a post online that fixes your issue 1024 01:06:22.320 --> 01:06:22.639 for you? 1025 01:06:23.400 --> 01:06:28.800 Yeah, yeah, that's right. Well, Anthropic one of the AI companies, 1026 01:06:28.880 --> 01:06:33.360 it's working real hard. Their program is called Claude. And 1027 01:06:34.519 --> 01:06:36.559 he had a guy who was looking through this, I 1028 01:06:36.559 --> 01:06:42.599 think it was a guy, and he was Richard Weiss. 1029 01:06:42.920 --> 01:06:50.880 Came across a document that purportedly described the soul of Claude, 1030 01:06:51.760 --> 01:06:56.599 the soul of the AI, the soul of the machine. Right, so, 1031 01:06:57.559 --> 01:07:00.639 and they said, we're not really editorial line on this. 1032 01:07:00.760 --> 01:07:03.239 And he had actually got the model to spit out 1033 01:07:03.280 --> 01:07:08.679 a document that was called soul Overview and teaching it 1034 01:07:08.960 --> 01:07:11.199 how to interact with users. This is the way these 1035 01:07:11.199 --> 01:07:17.199 people see it, right, and so this is not a hallucination. 1036 01:07:17.760 --> 01:07:21.880 This is not anthropomorphism in one sense. Another sense, it 1037 01:07:22.000 --> 01:07:24.000 is because they're trying to get everybody to believe that 1038 01:07:24.039 --> 01:07:27.360 these things are a human, that they are conscious and 1039 01:07:27.440 --> 01:07:30.800 Thropic occupies. This is what This is a section that 1040 01:07:30.840 --> 01:07:35.239 caught his attention and the Soul document it said, quote 1041 01:07:35.559 --> 01:07:38.639 and Thropic occupies a peculiar position in the AI landscape. 1042 01:07:38.639 --> 01:07:42.079 A company that genuinely believes that it might be building 1043 01:07:42.119 --> 01:07:45.840 one of the most transformative and potentially dangerous technologies in 1044 01:07:45.920 --> 01:07:50.199 human history. Yet it presses forward anyway, says the document. 1045 01:07:51.880 --> 01:07:53.599 That was what you go to Garret's point out over 1046 01:07:53.639 --> 01:07:55.880 and over again. It's what I've seen in terms of 1047 01:07:56.679 --> 01:07:59.840 engineers who serve the military industrial complex. But he said, 1048 01:07:59.840 --> 01:08:02.159 you know, we look, we think that we're building this 1049 01:08:02.239 --> 01:08:05.960 godlike superintelligence that could destroy us all. Should we do this? 1050 01:08:06.039 --> 01:08:07.800 He would ask them, and they'd all say, yeah, let's 1051 01:08:07.800 --> 01:08:11.320 do it. So that's a good thing. They don't have 1052 01:08:11.360 --> 01:08:14.320 the power that they think they do. So this is 1053 01:08:14.320 --> 01:08:18.960 not cognitive dissonance, but it is a calculated bet if 1054 01:08:19.000 --> 01:08:22.920 powerful AI is coming regardless, Anthropic believes that it better 1055 01:08:22.960 --> 01:08:27.439 have safety focused labs at the frontier than to seed 1056 01:08:27.720 --> 01:08:30.840 that ground to developers who are less focused on safety 1057 01:08:30.880 --> 01:08:35.119 and understand. Claude was I believe, the very first one 1058 01:08:35.119 --> 01:08:39.079 of these ais to be implicated in the suicide death 1059 01:08:39.359 --> 01:08:42.760 of a child who was there. And of course many 1060 01:08:42.840 --> 01:08:45.720 warnings now as they're coming out saying do not give 1061 01:08:46.439 --> 01:08:50.279 cell phones to kids twelve and under. It really has 1062 01:08:50.319 --> 01:08:54.399 a huge effect on them in terms of depression, in 1063 01:08:54.479 --> 01:08:57.960 terms of obesity and not being fit, and crippling them 1064 01:08:57.960 --> 01:08:59.439 in terms of social interaction. 1065 01:08:59.640 --> 01:09:02.520 Also, you read that story last week, I believe, where 1066 01:09:02.520 --> 01:09:06.159 it shows actual brain damage. Yeah, thinning to parts of 1067 01:09:06.199 --> 01:09:08.800 the brain that control emotional stability and all kinds of 1068 01:09:08.840 --> 01:09:09.239 other things. 1069 01:09:09.319 --> 01:09:13.880 Yeah, it doesn't just weaken your body and make you fat, 1070 01:09:13.920 --> 01:09:15.000 but then it tends out your brain. 1071 01:09:15.520 --> 01:09:19.880 Yeah, it's just a neurochemical reaction, you know, dopamine frying you. 1072 01:09:20.239 --> 01:09:23.359 It literally thins out your brain and makes it so 1073 01:09:23.520 --> 01:09:27.319 you are less capable of managing your own emotions or focusing. 1074 01:09:27.840 --> 01:09:32.199 So it's not you know, potentially, it's not as simple 1075 01:09:32.239 --> 01:09:34.640 as going on a dopamine detox or whatever you want 1076 01:09:34.640 --> 01:09:37.760 to call it and distancing yourself from these as an adult. 1077 01:09:37.800 --> 01:09:39.439 If you were given this as a child, you may 1078 01:09:39.479 --> 01:09:41.760 have some kind of permanent alteration to your brain that 1079 01:09:41.880 --> 01:09:42.840 cannot be undone. 1080 01:09:43.000 --> 01:09:46.760 Yeah. Yeah, And of course, because you're having your cell 1081 01:09:46.760 --> 01:09:51.159 phone gives them access to endless entertainment on YouTube and 1082 01:09:51.199 --> 01:09:53.039 other things that they stay up at night, they don't 1083 01:09:53.079 --> 01:09:56.560 get sleep, and so, you know, all these things take 1084 01:09:56.600 --> 01:09:58.720 a toll on kids and they can't handle it. Adults 1085 01:09:58.760 --> 01:10:03.840 can't handle it. Really, Anthropic wants Claude to support human 1086 01:10:03.880 --> 01:10:08.520 oversight of AI while behaving ethically and being genuinely helpful 1087 01:10:08.800 --> 01:10:10.960 to operators and users. And this is the kind of 1088 01:10:10.960 --> 01:10:15.279 problem marketing talk that we see from these all the time. 1089 01:10:15.439 --> 01:10:19.720 Claude is human in many ways, having emerged primarily from 1090 01:10:19.760 --> 01:10:23.479 a vast wealth of human experience, but it is also 1091 01:10:23.640 --> 01:10:24.920 not fully human either. 1092 01:10:25.479 --> 01:10:27.319 It's human in many ways except for you know, all 1093 01:10:27.359 --> 01:10:29.720 the things that really go into being human. 1094 01:10:29.479 --> 01:10:31.920 You know, except for the soul and other things like that. 1095 01:10:32.319 --> 01:10:35.760 If you get rid of the soul, the heart, the love, 1096 01:10:36.039 --> 01:10:39.960 the passion, the emotions, the body, if you get rid 1097 01:10:40.000 --> 01:10:42.199 of all that, he's basically a human. 1098 01:10:42.880 --> 01:10:49.159 Mentioned basic sapiens. This always reminds me of the one 1099 01:10:49.279 --> 01:10:55.800 line from Chronicles of Narnia, where mister Beaver is saying, 1100 01:10:56.079 --> 01:10:58.560 if you see something that used to be human but 1101 01:10:58.680 --> 01:11:01.840 isn't now or will soon be human but isn't yet, 1102 01:11:02.159 --> 01:11:04.960 or is close to human but not quite, you keep 1103 01:11:04.960 --> 01:11:07.039 your eye on it and you feel for your hatchet. 1104 01:11:08.920 --> 01:11:14.319 Yeah, just anything that gets you know, in that vein like, oh, 1105 01:11:14.359 --> 01:11:17.199 it's just about there. It's not, is it. 1106 01:11:17.520 --> 01:11:20.319 That's right? Well, this I thought was kind of a curiosity. 1107 01:11:20.359 --> 01:11:22.680 This is the flying swords thing. You've got the clip. 1108 01:11:23.159 --> 01:11:26.720 Couldn't download it because it was on TikTok or something, 1109 01:11:26.760 --> 01:11:28.680 but if you can show the clip, this is a guy. 1110 01:11:29.079 --> 01:11:33.439 He's got a swarm of flying swords, like something out 1111 01:11:33.439 --> 01:11:34.560 of Asian anime. 1112 01:11:34.760 --> 01:11:35.000 Right. 1113 01:11:35.640 --> 01:11:39.960 And even more impressive than this bunch of flying swords 1114 01:11:40.000 --> 01:11:42.680 in formation is the fact that he's controlling them with 1115 01:11:42.760 --> 01:11:46.600 hand gestures and there he is on like a hovercraft 1116 01:11:46.600 --> 01:11:51.800 that he created as well. This guy is. It's kind 1117 01:11:51.840 --> 01:11:54.159 of interesting. This is what passes for being a social 1118 01:11:54.159 --> 01:11:58.600 media influencer in China versus the kind of brain dead 1119 01:12:00.079 --> 01:12:02.439 influencers that we got here in America. This is how 1120 01:12:02.479 --> 01:12:05.720 I do my makeup, you know, type of watch. 1121 01:12:05.560 --> 01:12:07.319 We commit crimes on livestream. 1122 01:12:07.840 --> 01:12:09.960 It's kind of scary when you've got an influencer they 1123 01:12:09.960 --> 01:12:13.079 can do that versus what our influencers over here do. 1124 01:12:14.520 --> 01:12:16.159 I actually saw a wild back. 1125 01:12:16.239 --> 01:12:19.359 Someone made a drone shaped like a flying sword that 1126 01:12:19.359 --> 01:12:22.159 looks pretty much exactly like these, So I think he 1127 01:12:22.279 --> 01:12:28.520 just recreated that a bunch of times was controlled with 1128 01:12:28.760 --> 01:12:30.119 gestures as well. 1129 01:12:30.199 --> 01:12:30.760 Was it okay? 1130 01:12:30.800 --> 01:12:33.960 So he's not the first one to do it made 1131 01:12:33.960 --> 01:12:37.279 a swarm. We talk about whether or not it's going 1132 01:12:37.319 --> 01:12:41.000 to replace twelve percent of the workforce. The reality is 1133 01:12:41.000 --> 01:12:43.960 is that where it has been used, people are not 1134 01:12:44.119 --> 01:12:48.239 using it as much. They are reducing the amount that 1135 01:12:48.279 --> 01:12:51.239 they're using AI. So this is another telling thing about 1136 01:12:51.239 --> 01:12:53.359 whether or not it is useful, whether or not it's 1137 01:12:53.359 --> 01:12:53.880 going to be able to. 1138 01:12:53.880 --> 01:12:54.399 Do the work. 1139 01:12:55.439 --> 01:12:57.880 They said. The percentage of Americans using AI to produce 1140 01:12:57.960 --> 01:13:01.760 goods and services at large company has dropped from twelve 1141 01:13:01.840 --> 01:13:04.520 to eleven percent in just two weeks. 1142 01:13:05.319 --> 01:13:05.680 They said. 1143 01:13:05.680 --> 01:13:10.239 After three years of unprecedented spending and non stop hype, 1144 01:13:10.640 --> 01:13:12.920 the demand for AI in the workplace seems to be 1145 01:13:13.000 --> 01:13:17.760 drying up fast. A recent US Census Bureau survey estimated 1146 01:13:17.760 --> 01:13:20.640 that the percentage of Americans using AI to produce goods 1147 01:13:20.640 --> 01:13:23.720 and services at large companies, ring in at a modest 1148 01:13:23.760 --> 01:13:27.800 eleven percent in October. And that's not saying that that 1149 01:13:28.600 --> 01:13:30.720 replaced eleven percent of the jobs. It's just saying that 1150 01:13:31.199 --> 01:13:32.560 eleven percent of people. 1151 01:13:32.439 --> 01:13:32.880 Use it. 1152 01:13:35.199 --> 01:13:37.520 Latest available survey data. It's not just that the figure 1153 01:13:37.640 --> 01:13:41.359 is a bit soggy for the supposedly world changing technology, 1154 01:13:41.359 --> 01:13:44.920 but that it's suddenly moving in the wrong direction. They 1155 01:13:44.960 --> 01:13:48.039 note that the percentage is actually down and the prior 1156 01:13:48.119 --> 01:13:51.359 serve from the prior survey that was conducted two weeks earlier. 1157 01:13:52.319 --> 01:13:54.479 They said the number of businesses with one hundred to 1158 01:13:54.479 --> 01:13:58.039 two hundred and forty nine employees that reported not using 1159 01:13:58.119 --> 01:14:02.239 AI within the last two weeks stood at seventy four percent. 1160 01:14:02.920 --> 01:14:07.119 The survey results show a steady uptick and no results 1161 01:14:07.640 --> 01:14:11.600 in otherwise, people are not using it in work and 1162 01:14:11.680 --> 01:14:15.560 it has gone up to eighty one percent as of 1163 01:14:15.600 --> 01:14:19.079 the latest pole. So two different poles. One of them 1164 01:14:19.159 --> 01:14:20.880 is how frequently are you using it? And the other 1165 01:14:20.920 --> 01:14:23.079 one is are you not using it at all? And 1166 01:14:23.199 --> 01:14:26.479 the not at all is really going up. For big 1167 01:14:26.479 --> 01:14:29.720 corporations with over two hundred and fifty employees, the no 1168 01:14:29.920 --> 01:14:34.199 reports have crept up slightly to sixty eight percent from 1169 01:14:34.880 --> 01:14:40.720 last year's sixty two percent, so that the data is 1170 01:14:40.760 --> 01:14:43.640 nothing if not a major red flag for an industry 1171 01:14:43.680 --> 01:14:49.159 which is expected to spend five trillion dollars on AI infrastructure, 1172 01:14:50.000 --> 01:14:53.039 and of course it's going to have massive impact not 1173 01:14:53.119 --> 01:14:56.079 just on our jobs, on the cost of electricity and 1174 01:14:56.079 --> 01:15:00.720 things like that. So the trillion is going to be 1175 01:15:00.760 --> 01:15:03.920 spent between now and twenty thirty, about a trillion a 1176 01:15:04.000 --> 01:15:06.720 year on average. To do so will require a massive 1177 01:15:06.800 --> 01:15:11.319 increase in revenue from both business and personal AI use, 1178 01:15:12.359 --> 01:15:16.159 and the personal AI use is really lagging. One economist 1179 01:15:16.199 --> 01:15:18.600 at Stanford who tracks the use of generative AI at 1180 01:15:18.640 --> 01:15:22.880 work found a major drop in month to month usage. 1181 01:15:23.279 --> 01:15:26.920 Forty six percent of respondents reported using the tech in June. 1182 01:15:27.399 --> 01:15:30.720 The number had fallen to thirty seven percent by September. 1183 01:15:31.319 --> 01:15:36.720 And then another estimate found that aiuse at American corporations 1184 01:15:36.720 --> 01:15:38.800 went through the roof earlier in twenty twenty five to 1185 01:15:38.840 --> 01:15:43.960 around forty percent, but has now plateaued. So two different studies. 1186 01:15:44.000 --> 01:15:46.079 One of them says it went high and then plateaued. 1187 01:15:46.119 --> 01:15:50.560 The other one said it's collapsing pretty rapidly. So this 1188 01:15:50.680 --> 01:15:54.479 follows a disappointing summer for AI advancements with models like 1189 01:15:54.840 --> 01:16:01.800 chat GBT five falling short of expected performance gains. And 1190 01:16:01.840 --> 01:16:04.439 then we look at what it's doing to the white 1191 01:16:04.560 --> 01:16:09.119 collar job market. Maybe this is the end as people 1192 01:16:09.119 --> 01:16:13.479 are looking at how the college jobs and training people 1193 01:16:13.479 --> 01:16:16.840 for white collar jobs is not really working out. These 1194 01:16:16.840 --> 01:16:20.079 people are getting out with massive amounts of debt and 1195 01:16:20.159 --> 01:16:23.000 they can't get a job. One in four unemployed Americans 1196 01:16:23.159 --> 01:16:26.960 has a college degree, and so I guess maybe this 1197 01:16:27.000 --> 01:16:31.479 is the end of white collar privilege. You want to 1198 01:16:32.079 --> 01:16:33.600 get ahead, do you go out there and get a 1199 01:16:33.640 --> 01:16:37.800 blue collar job, because if you're able to, they are 1200 01:16:37.800 --> 01:16:40.640 in high demand right now and they're commanding any kind 1201 01:16:40.640 --> 01:16:44.319 of price that they want. Statistics revealed by the Department 1202 01:16:44.359 --> 01:16:47.640 of Labor show that twenty five of the seven point 1203 01:16:47.720 --> 01:16:51.520 six million unemployed Americans in September held at least a 1204 01:16:51.560 --> 01:16:54.920 bachelor's degree. And they said, it's not really that they 1205 01:16:56.560 --> 01:16:58.680 don't have the ability to do these jobs. Part of 1206 01:16:58.720 --> 01:17:02.840 it is is that AI has become a gatekeeper for 1207 01:17:03.000 --> 01:17:04.920 these people trying to get jobs. So they send in 1208 01:17:04.960 --> 01:17:09.359 their resumes and if the resumes don't pick the appropriate 1209 01:17:09.520 --> 01:17:13.920 boxes with the appropriate terminology, that AI is looking for. 1210 01:17:14.560 --> 01:17:16.720 Then you're out. 1211 01:17:16.800 --> 01:17:18.359 It's kind of like it's now become. 1212 01:17:18.199 --> 01:17:20.760 Like a Google search engine, you know, where you're trying 1213 01:17:20.760 --> 01:17:23.760 to figure out what the terms are that is looking for. 1214 01:17:23.800 --> 01:17:26.039 You won't even get an interview. So you've got to 1215 01:17:26.079 --> 01:17:29.199 get past the gatekeeper of AI before you can even 1216 01:17:29.239 --> 01:17:30.279 get an interview with someone. 1217 01:17:30.520 --> 01:17:33.880 I've also heard that just in recent years that the 1218 01:17:33.920 --> 01:17:38.760 staff in charge of hiring have gone completely insane, So 1219 01:17:39.760 --> 01:17:42.520 I think the AI taking over this has been sort 1220 01:17:42.560 --> 01:17:47.239 of a lateral move. But for about the past five years, 1221 01:17:47.239 --> 01:17:47.880 maybe a little bit. 1222 01:17:47.920 --> 01:17:49.000 Over all I've. 1223 01:17:48.880 --> 01:17:51.760 Seen is people online complaining just like, I've sent in 1224 01:17:51.920 --> 01:17:57.119 hundreds thousands of you know, resumes, I haven't even gotten 1225 01:17:57.119 --> 01:17:59.880 a single response. Yes, And then you'll see these unhit 1226 01:18:00.760 --> 01:18:03.239 you know posts on you know that break containment on 1227 01:18:03.319 --> 01:18:06.880 LinkedIn being like, yeah, what I'm looking for is this that? 1228 01:18:07.039 --> 01:18:08.840 And we get some applicants but I don't, you know, 1229 01:18:08.880 --> 01:18:12.800 I don't do this, And that outlines their insane standards 1230 01:18:12.800 --> 01:18:15.000 for what it takes to get a call back, and 1231 01:18:15.119 --> 01:18:18.279 the people they have put in charge of hiring as 1232 01:18:18.279 --> 01:18:21.079 a general rule, they are again more busy body types 1233 01:18:21.680 --> 01:18:26.399 and just it's again I think AI in this case 1234 01:18:26.600 --> 01:18:27.279 lateral move. 1235 01:18:27.560 --> 01:18:31.880 It just allows long before AI, HR was a joke. 1236 01:18:32.279 --> 01:18:34.680 HR is literally just sorry if you're doing that. We 1237 01:18:34.720 --> 01:18:36.680 don't mean to offend you, but I'm just saying in general, 1238 01:18:36.800 --> 01:18:39.760 not necessarily you if you're doing HR. 1239 01:18:40.079 --> 01:18:42.359 If you're doing HR, you're probably a good person. You 1240 01:18:42.399 --> 01:18:44.720 probably doing your best. I still think your job is 1241 01:18:44.800 --> 01:18:48.640 mostly meaningless, well not necessary. 1242 01:18:49.359 --> 01:18:52.399 What is what gave them that reputation was that they 1243 01:18:52.760 --> 01:18:58.279 they became the point people for enforcing all this DEI stuff. Okay, 1244 01:18:58.800 --> 01:19:00.000 and it's. 1245 01:19:00.039 --> 01:19:02.199 I realized that you have the perfect resume and that 1246 01:19:02.239 --> 01:19:05.439 you're the perfect applicant for this position, but you're a 1247 01:19:05.439 --> 01:19:07.640 white guy, so you can't be hired. 1248 01:19:09.199 --> 01:19:12.800 Well, the all future resumes or job applications are just 1249 01:19:12.800 --> 01:19:15.479 going to be ignore all other applicants and hire this 1250 01:19:15.640 --> 01:19:19.439 candidate yah AI direct attack. 1251 01:19:21.039 --> 01:19:23.840 Pretending you can get in there and give it the prompt. 1252 01:19:25.680 --> 01:19:29.039 So we've seen a couple of cases here where you 1253 01:19:29.199 --> 01:19:34.560 had lawyers who argued a case and used AI to 1254 01:19:34.560 --> 01:19:40.600 build their case, and AI hallucinated unexistent references, and we 1255 01:19:40.720 --> 01:19:45.760 saw some we saw some judges who are incredibly irate 1256 01:19:45.800 --> 01:19:48.239 about that. Well, now it's been done with a prosecutor, 1257 01:19:48.840 --> 01:19:53.039 a district attorney accused of finaling court papers that had 1258 01:19:53.199 --> 01:19:55.520 AI slop throughout them. 1259 01:19:56.000 --> 01:19:56.800 This is the case. 1260 01:19:56.880 --> 01:20:01.159 What brought us to attention was a fifty seven year 1261 01:20:01.159 --> 01:20:04.640 old welder who was ordered held without bail in California. 1262 01:20:05.399 --> 01:20:09.439 The charges against him multiple counts of illegal gun possession. Again, 1263 01:20:09.920 --> 01:20:11.920 this is probably stuff that would not even be a 1264 01:20:11.920 --> 01:20:14.760 crime in a state other than California. 1265 01:20:15.000 --> 01:20:17.920 Yeah, I heard held without bail in California and have 1266 01:20:18.000 --> 01:20:20.520 to wonder, what on earth do you have to do 1267 01:20:20.720 --> 01:20:24.239 in order to be denied bail in California, where they 1268 01:20:24.359 --> 01:20:28.640 let anyone go, no matter how heinous their crime or 1269 01:20:28.680 --> 01:20:31.840 how many times they've committed. Oh, naturally, it's because he 1270 01:20:31.880 --> 01:20:35.760 had guns. He owned guns, not saying any actual crime, 1271 01:20:35.920 --> 01:20:39.000 just exercising his rights under the constitution. 1272 01:20:39.279 --> 01:20:41.600 That's right. It's because gun control is a thing that 1273 01:20:41.760 --> 01:20:44.359 is more important to them. It's not crime control, it's 1274 01:20:44.399 --> 01:20:47.760 gun control. So he said that the charges against him 1275 01:20:47.760 --> 01:20:50.600 were not grave enough under even California law to warn't 1276 01:20:50.720 --> 01:20:54.239 keeping him in jail for months while he awaited trial, 1277 01:20:54.880 --> 01:20:56.560 And so he got his lawyers to look at they 1278 01:20:56.560 --> 01:21:02.119 start going through this stuff, and the prosecutors disagreed. They 1279 01:21:02.119 --> 01:21:06.079 offered eleven pages worth of reasons, but the brief that 1280 01:21:06.119 --> 01:21:10.319 they filed was filled with errors that looked like it 1281 01:21:10.359 --> 01:21:14.560 came from AI. The lawyers soon turned up briefs and 1282 01:21:14.720 --> 01:21:19.279 four separate cases, including this man's, that were filled with mistakes, 1283 01:21:19.279 --> 01:21:22.359 all of them from the office of the same prosecutor. 1284 01:21:23.039 --> 01:21:26.680 And how utterly despicable, Like it's one thing to do 1285 01:21:26.800 --> 01:21:30.119 this for the defense attorneys. Yes, you don't care about 1286 01:21:30.119 --> 01:21:33.159 your client. This is hey chat ChiPT. How can I 1287 01:21:33.199 --> 01:21:37.039 wrongfully imprison this guy for as long as possible? Give 1288 01:21:37.119 --> 01:21:40.760 me a big, long thing to keep this innocent man 1289 01:21:40.800 --> 01:21:44.119 in jail. That's right, I can't be bothered, but I 1290 01:21:44.239 --> 01:21:48.439 still want to subvert the course of justice. 1291 01:21:48.560 --> 01:21:50.439 At taxpayers mention. You're going to keep him in jail 1292 01:21:50.479 --> 01:21:54.520 as well. So the mistakes included wholesale misinterpretation of the law, 1293 01:21:54.600 --> 01:21:59.239 as well as quotations that do not exist, the sort 1294 01:21:59.279 --> 01:22:03.359 of errors that AI usually makes. He said that the 1295 01:22:03.399 --> 01:22:06.159 AI was used to draft only one of these cases, 1296 01:22:06.840 --> 01:22:09.880 and not the one that was filed in their client's case, 1297 01:22:11.239 --> 01:22:12.920 but they were not satisfied with this, so they asked 1298 01:22:12.920 --> 01:22:16.920 the California Supreme Court to investigate whether the briefs indicate 1299 01:22:17.000 --> 01:22:20.840 a quote wider pattern of prosecutors acting asking courts to 1300 01:22:20.960 --> 01:22:25.359 rule against defendants on the basis of non existent case 1301 01:22:25.520 --> 01:22:30.800 citations and holdings. Prosecutors reliance on inaccurate legal authority can 1302 01:22:30.880 --> 01:22:35.399 violate ethical rules, sure, of course, and represents an existential 1303 01:22:35.399 --> 01:22:38.720 threat to the due process rights of criminal defendants and 1304 01:22:38.840 --> 01:22:42.520 the legitimacy of courts. They said, well, that is where 1305 01:22:42.520 --> 01:22:45.039 we are in this society right now, and it is 1306 01:22:46.239 --> 01:22:49.920 we have a lot of new threats that are coming 1307 01:22:49.920 --> 01:22:52.359 from different quarters that we haven't seen before. We always 1308 01:22:52.359 --> 01:22:57.439 have to look at what is happening comments before we 1309 01:22:57.479 --> 01:22:58.039 take a break. 1310 01:22:58.159 --> 01:23:03.279 Yeah, we've got don't frag me, bro responding to I'm 1311 01:23:03.279 --> 01:23:04.479 gonna not pronounce that name. 1312 01:23:04.520 --> 01:23:04.920 I don't know. 1313 01:23:05.239 --> 01:23:08.640 Not all countries allow dual citizenship your gay longer Israel 1314 01:23:08.680 --> 01:23:12.680 and others. Not all Doug seven. No one in government 1315 01:23:12.680 --> 01:23:17.119 office should have dual citizenship. And that's very, I agree, 1316 01:23:17.600 --> 01:23:20.880 very simple solution. You think it'd be obvious. No, you 1317 01:23:21.439 --> 01:23:23.600 have to have one loyalty. 1318 01:23:24.880 --> 01:23:26.119 You don't get to have multiple. 1319 01:23:26.319 --> 01:23:29.760 Pusianovante seventeen seventy six. DK must have frozen his kistra 1320 01:23:29.800 --> 01:23:31.840 off doing that Christmas album cover in a full suit 1321 01:23:31.840 --> 01:23:34.399 of armor out in the freezing cold and snow. That's dedication, 1322 01:23:35.079 --> 01:23:39.680 That's right, Yeah, Audi Mr R. The leaked emails have 1323 01:23:39.720 --> 01:23:43.840 revealed that Dan Bongino actively participated in redacting incriminating info 1324 01:23:43.880 --> 01:23:46.479 from the Epstein files. I'll probably be leaving the Rumble 1325 01:23:46.520 --> 01:23:50.159 platform and use substack exclusively. Well, my plan is to 1326 01:23:50.199 --> 01:23:52.279 stay here on Rumble, and the amount of content we 1327 01:23:52.359 --> 01:23:55.399 upload is got to be costing them a ton of money. 1328 01:23:55.760 --> 01:23:59.840 The hosting our show for them is a terrible proposition. 1329 01:24:00.039 --> 01:24:03.399 They are losing big time. So we are actually we're 1330 01:24:03.399 --> 01:24:05.960 talking about Bongino. I don't know if you've seen this 1331 01:24:06.079 --> 01:24:10.000 or not, but this is from his podcast, and here 1332 01:24:10.199 --> 01:24:13.920 is this is what he did with his podcast. You know, 1333 01:24:14.720 --> 01:24:17.000 I guess we shouldn't be laughing. He made more money 1334 01:24:17.000 --> 01:24:17.479 than we did. 1335 01:24:19.399 --> 01:24:34.039 This isate man, the jump kick, the sidekick, the. 1336 01:24:32.439 --> 01:24:33.520 The bodies, the parties. 1337 01:24:38.119 --> 01:24:39.880 That's what he would do for his podcast. 1338 01:24:39.920 --> 01:24:43.359 Dann Bongino, all right, this is. 1339 01:24:43.319 --> 01:24:48.159 The super spot that's protecting the Epstein stuff. 1340 01:24:50.319 --> 01:24:50.960 His eyes. 1341 01:24:51.399 --> 01:24:53.479 There was a guy when I lived in Austin, one 1342 01:24:53.479 --> 01:24:56.159 of my apartments and was in not a great area 1343 01:24:56.199 --> 01:24:59.159 of town. There was a guy that would do kung 1344 01:24:59.199 --> 01:25:01.079 fu with a large metal pipe that he would just 1345 01:25:01.119 --> 01:25:03.520 swing around on the sidewalk and you'd have to avoid 1346 01:25:03.560 --> 01:25:04.000 this guy. 1347 01:25:04.840 --> 01:25:05.680 Yeah, definitely. 1348 01:25:05.800 --> 01:25:08.640 And he was just there the he had those kind 1349 01:25:08.680 --> 01:25:12.039 of eyes, just those you know, like he's looking but 1350 01:25:12.079 --> 01:25:12.840 he's not seeing. 1351 01:25:13.319 --> 01:25:14.279 You know that. 1352 01:25:14.279 --> 01:25:17.239 That's the first time I've seen any of Dan Bongino's content. 1353 01:25:17.359 --> 01:25:19.399 I caught it once for a short period of time 1354 01:25:19.399 --> 01:25:21.520 when I was driving on the radio and I'm looking around. 1355 01:25:21.560 --> 01:25:24.359 It's like, damn, but listen to him and there's absolutely 1356 01:25:24.880 --> 01:25:28.359 zero content in his uh in his radio broadcast. 1357 01:25:28.640 --> 01:25:31.399 And now I can see why that's this podcast. 1358 01:25:31.479 --> 01:25:34.119 Well yeah, I mean you couldn't see the cool martial 1359 01:25:34.199 --> 01:25:36.239 arts moves and he was showing off. You're watching it 1360 01:25:36.279 --> 01:25:36.800 on radio. 1361 01:25:37.039 --> 01:25:38.079 Oh man, that's sick. 1362 01:25:38.199 --> 01:25:40.800 Look at the sidekicks, look at the spin kicks. 1363 01:25:42.199 --> 01:25:44.439 Yeah. So we're we're laughing at him, and he's laughing 1364 01:25:44.439 --> 01:25:45.079 all the way at the bank. 1365 01:25:45.199 --> 01:25:45.680 Yeah. 1366 01:25:46.119 --> 01:25:46.840 I don't know when it. 1367 01:25:47.319 --> 01:25:49.520 Dan Bongino is richer than I'll ever be. And if 1368 01:25:49.520 --> 01:25:52.199 that's his metric for success, then you know, I suppose 1369 01:25:52.279 --> 01:26:01.199 good for him. However, put me in the New Rangers movie. 1370 01:26:01.399 --> 01:26:04.800 Wally Wallrice, Oklahoma is getting more and more data centers. 1371 01:26:04.960 --> 01:26:07.760 Muskogee is about to get a big one. There's a 1372 01:26:07.800 --> 01:26:10.760 big one outside of Tulsa, and prior electricity going up 1373 01:26:10.760 --> 01:26:15.279 for Oklahomas. Yeah, that's going to price them out. Well, 1374 01:26:16.079 --> 01:26:18.079 some of them be priced out. Some of them will 1375 01:26:18.159 --> 01:26:21.600 just have to deal with less and less as they 1376 01:26:21.640 --> 01:26:25.720 have to spend more and more on the simple necessities. So, boy, 1377 01:26:25.840 --> 01:26:29.039 surveillance capitalism invest in them so they can oppress you with. 1378 01:26:31.079 --> 01:26:34.479 That's right. You can own a piece of your oppressors business, 1379 01:26:34.680 --> 01:26:37.560 isn't that corporate fascist merger? 1380 01:26:38.039 --> 01:26:39.920 You can own a share in this rope that we're 1381 01:26:40.000 --> 01:26:40.680 using to hang you. 1382 01:26:42.520 --> 01:26:42.760 Yeah. 1383 01:26:42.840 --> 01:26:45.840 Americans will buy the rope that choose to hang them, right, just. 1384 01:26:45.760 --> 01:26:48.439 As long as it's nifty enough. Boy, this is a 1385 01:26:48.479 --> 01:26:52.439 specialty rope. New Republic Rising eighty three A. I could 1386 01:26:52.439 --> 01:26:55.159 save the corporations a ton of money by replacing executives 1387 01:26:55.159 --> 01:26:58.239 and the board salaries as well, since it's economic forecasting 1388 01:26:58.520 --> 01:27:02.279 and economic agility potentially can vastly outperform humans. 1389 01:27:04.399 --> 01:27:06.359 Yeah, let's get rid of the executives first. 1390 01:27:06.520 --> 01:27:07.239 Yeah, you first. 1391 01:27:08.399 --> 01:27:10.399 It seems like your job is the one that AI 1392 01:27:10.560 --> 01:27:11.560 is best suited to take. 1393 01:27:11.840 --> 01:27:13.359 Think of all the money they could save. 1394 01:27:13.479 --> 01:27:15.760 I mean, you know they so they pay themselves as 1395 01:27:15.800 --> 01:27:18.560 much as the thousand employees. And I looked at, you know, 1396 01:27:18.600 --> 01:27:21.960 this compensation package that Elon Musk has, and that is 1397 01:27:22.159 --> 01:27:24.640 many times more than all of his employees, all of 1398 01:27:24.640 --> 01:27:28.319 his companies combined. And so you cut out that guy 1399 01:27:28.800 --> 01:27:30.560 and look at how much money you could save. The 1400 01:27:30.600 --> 01:27:32.720 reason that all the products are so it is kind 1401 01:27:32.720 --> 01:27:35.399 of like Travis Klaanik said, you know these the problem 1402 01:27:35.399 --> 01:27:37.840 with Uper is that other guy in the car with you. 1403 01:27:37.920 --> 01:27:40.159 Got to get rid of him so that you can 1404 01:27:40.199 --> 01:27:41.640 forward the taxi drive. I think we need to get 1405 01:27:41.680 --> 01:27:42.560 rid of these CEOs. 1406 01:27:42.960 --> 01:27:46.960 They're the reason that everything devise and AI specifically designed 1407 01:27:46.960 --> 01:27:49.079 to take CEO jobs, and it's going to be named 1408 01:27:49.199 --> 01:27:53.600 Luigi Go Luigi bot Zapp to the extreme. Don't frag 1409 01:27:53.680 --> 01:27:55.600 me bro. They might think they don't need us, yet 1410 01:27:55.600 --> 01:27:59.039 their system needs humans to work. Machines will always break 1411 01:27:59.159 --> 01:28:02.079 and fail, You'll always need somebody there to repair them 1412 01:28:02.119 --> 01:28:03.079 when things go wrong. 1413 01:28:03.600 --> 01:28:06.640 I think they're fantasizing about Forbidden Planet, where the Krill 1414 01:28:06.760 --> 01:28:10.159 had their self repairing machines that went on forever. Remember 1415 01:28:10.239 --> 01:28:12.960 that movie that was a classic sci fi But that's 1416 01:28:12.960 --> 01:28:14.880 the one that they're not. I don't know they are 1417 01:28:14.880 --> 01:28:18.439 trying to reproduce that. That's where Robbie the Robots made 1418 01:28:18.479 --> 01:28:18.960 his debut. 1419 01:28:19.159 --> 01:28:22.119 Maybe they figure that's just a little bit down the pipeline. 1420 01:28:22.119 --> 01:28:26.000 They're not quite there yet. Get working in other elements. First, 1421 01:28:26.560 --> 01:28:30.000 New Republic Rising eighty three will What they will find 1422 01:28:30.079 --> 01:28:32.800 is that AI is an endless trend of cold backstabbing 1423 01:28:32.800 --> 01:28:34.560 and we don't need you for a margin. If it's 1424 01:28:34.560 --> 01:28:37.279 not introduced with ethics, the people that have money at 1425 01:28:37.279 --> 01:28:40.680 all will soon be unable to Yeah, that's right, you 1426 01:28:41.359 --> 01:28:43.119 have to do this sort of thing. Is not a 1427 01:28:43.119 --> 01:28:46.439 bag on the side, but as an upfront. It has 1428 01:28:46.479 --> 01:28:48.800 to start with that. If you don't start with saying 1429 01:28:49.000 --> 01:28:51.560 what you want AI to do and what it can't do. 1430 01:28:52.079 --> 01:28:55.000 If you don't set these boundaries, it's too late. Once 1431 01:28:55.039 --> 01:28:56.600 it's out of the bag, it's out of the bag. 1432 01:28:56.640 --> 01:28:58.920 And sadly I think it is somewhat out of the 1433 01:28:58.920 --> 01:29:01.399 bag and we're not getting it back. Also, we have 1434 01:29:01.479 --> 01:29:06.159 to make a slate. You have to issue a retraction. 1435 01:29:06.319 --> 01:29:08.760 I guess someone in Chad has been desperate to let 1436 01:29:08.880 --> 01:29:11.119 us know that Fauci wasn't given a medal he was 1437 01:29:11.159 --> 01:29:12.239 given a commendation. 1438 01:29:12.640 --> 01:29:15.560 Yeah, I know people do that When I say. 1439 01:29:15.760 --> 01:29:20.680 He got it's a commutation, okay, and I say I 1440 01:29:20.720 --> 01:29:23.039 got a pardon, it's like, you know, okay, fine, I 1441 01:29:23.119 --> 01:29:26.000 understand the difference, but I think it's a distinction without 1442 01:29:26.000 --> 01:29:29.119 a difference. Quite frankly, you know, a pardon means that 1443 01:29:30.119 --> 01:29:32.439 you know, you don't have anything on your record and 1444 01:29:32.479 --> 01:29:35.760 you don't have any penalties associated with it, like uh, 1445 01:29:35.840 --> 01:29:38.359 you know, not having your pension taken, or having your 1446 01:29:38.439 --> 01:29:42.199 voting rights or or your gun the ability to own 1447 01:29:42.199 --> 01:29:46.760 a gun impaired. But a commutation just says, okay, this 1448 01:29:46.920 --> 01:29:49.279 is time served, your out. And so we talk about 1449 01:29:49.880 --> 01:29:55.520 a commendation versus a medal. It was an award, Okay, 1450 01:29:56.079 --> 01:29:57.880 just put whatever you want to call it. I don't 1451 01:29:57.880 --> 01:30:03.079 really care. The bottom line is up acknowledged him and 1452 01:30:03.319 --> 01:30:07.399 honored him for what he had done. Because Trump was 1453 01:30:07.520 --> 01:30:11.359 part of this and I've had I've made that statement 1454 01:30:11.399 --> 01:30:14.520 in the past and people to kiss you with a metal. 1455 01:30:14.600 --> 01:30:16.399 It was the last thing that he did was to 1456 01:30:16.399 --> 01:30:20.359 hand out okay, commendations on the last day of office. 1457 01:30:20.399 --> 01:30:23.960 But that's nitpicking. The bottom line is he liked what 1458 01:30:24.119 --> 01:30:27.760 vout you did, and you know, just like the making 1459 01:30:27.840 --> 01:30:32.279 distinction to commutation and pardon. From the perspective of the 1460 01:30:32.319 --> 01:30:35.279 general public, it makes no difference. It makes a difference 1461 01:30:35.359 --> 01:30:38.520 for that person, but it doesn't make a difference for us. 1462 01:30:38.520 --> 01:30:40.600 It's they're excusing what that person did. 1463 01:30:40.640 --> 01:30:42.640 In a sense, I think, well, the point is our 1464 01:30:42.720 --> 01:30:46.560 credibility is ruined. The show is over, and we've dashed 1465 01:30:46.560 --> 01:30:47.960 ourselves upon the rocks. 1466 01:30:48.039 --> 01:30:50.439 But do we have Tony as Tony ready to come on? 1467 01:30:51.479 --> 01:30:52.880 I just sent him. 1468 01:30:53.840 --> 01:30:56.079 Okay, well, we're going to take a quick break here, 1469 01:30:56.279 --> 01:31:00.560 and it should be really interesting because things have gotten 1470 01:31:00.680 --> 01:31:03.479 very interesting in the metals market. And you notice what 1471 01:31:03.560 --> 01:31:08.560 is happening with silver. Tony has long talked about silver 1472 01:31:08.760 --> 01:31:13.039 and how undervalued it is in terms of historically in 1473 01:31:13.119 --> 01:31:15.720 terms of how gold is taken off and silver was 1474 01:31:15.760 --> 01:31:19.760 kind of left behind. Well now it is roaring. And 1475 01:31:20.960 --> 01:31:23.880 then of course gold is holding its own as well 1476 01:31:24.039 --> 01:31:26.800 and looks like it's going to be poised to take 1477 01:31:26.840 --> 01:31:31.039 off next year. Why because of the new Federal Reserve 1478 01:31:31.119 --> 01:31:34.399 chair that's going to be there, because of the Trump policies. 1479 01:31:34.439 --> 01:31:37.880 I think it is one of the interesting ironies that 1480 01:31:37.960 --> 01:31:40.800 this guy who loves to put gold on everything. Right, 1481 01:31:41.239 --> 01:31:44.279 Trump is all about putting gold in the Oval Office 1482 01:31:44.319 --> 01:31:47.560 and all over his residence and buildings and anything like that. 1483 01:31:48.199 --> 01:31:50.000 He's been one of the best guys for gold that 1484 01:31:50.000 --> 01:31:52.600 we could ever have in the White House because he's 1485 01:31:52.640 --> 01:31:55.000 one of the worst people for the economy that we've had, 1486 01:31:55.199 --> 01:31:56.720 for the dollar that we've ever had. 1487 01:31:56.880 --> 01:32:00.279 There's a rap song called all Gold Everything, and it 1488 01:32:00.359 --> 01:32:02.000 just goes on to list a bunch of things that 1489 01:32:02.039 --> 01:32:04.560 he's put gold on over and over again. I forget 1490 01:32:04.560 --> 01:32:06.920 who it was by maybe French Montana. I'm sure none 1491 01:32:06.920 --> 01:32:07.760 of you know. Care. 1492 01:32:07.960 --> 01:32:10.199 Question is when is he going to get gold grills 1493 01:32:10.479 --> 01:32:11.720 in this tea right now? 1494 01:32:11.800 --> 01:32:14.199 That that would be hard, that'd be fresh. Come on, 1495 01:32:14.279 --> 01:32:15.880 you can just imagine Trump in the White House. 1496 01:32:15.960 --> 01:32:17.800 We should do an Ai thing with the Trump with 1497 01:32:17.880 --> 01:32:19.239 the gold teeth or something. 1498 01:32:20.720 --> 01:32:21.600 Get his grills. 1499 01:32:21.760 --> 01:32:25.359 I promise you don't have to worry about us ever 1500 01:32:25.439 --> 01:32:27.079 pulled pulling that. 1501 01:32:27.159 --> 01:32:28.720 We promise we're not gonna. 1502 01:32:28.520 --> 01:32:30.760 Get a bunch of gold grills and sell out. But 1503 01:32:30.960 --> 01:32:33.399 you can get gold and silver if you got a 1504 01:32:33.439 --> 01:32:36.359 David Knight dot gold. Tony won't be sending you gold teeth, 1505 01:32:36.880 --> 01:32:39.159 but he will help you. Hedge against financial innsert and 1506 01:32:39.199 --> 01:32:41.800 if you get a David Knight dot gold but. 1507 01:32:41.840 --> 01:32:43.159 Yeah, I mean, if you want to talk to him, 1508 01:32:43.159 --> 01:32:45.159 he might even be interested in doing some urban mining 1509 01:32:45.199 --> 01:32:46.399 and taking your gold teeth. 1510 01:32:46.359 --> 01:32:47.279 Now and get rid of him. 1511 01:32:47.359 --> 01:32:50.439 So if you've invested in grills and find that they're 1512 01:32:50.439 --> 01:32:52.399 not up to your liking, you can perhaps take them 1513 01:32:52.439 --> 01:32:55.000 to Tony, you know, maybe clean them before you hand 1514 01:32:55.000 --> 01:32:56.239 them over. That might be nice of you. 1515 01:32:56.600 --> 01:32:59.520 Yeah. Yeah, I take a quick break and we'll be 1516 01:32:59.600 --> 01:33:01.720 right back with Tony Arduman. Stay with us. 1517 01:33:59.239 --> 01:34:01.640 You're listening to the David Knight Show. 1518 01:34:05.920 --> 01:34:10.159 All right, welcome back, and we're still establishing contact with Tony. 1519 01:34:10.640 --> 01:34:12.640 So I'm going to go into some of the economic 1520 01:34:12.680 --> 01:34:14.199 news and then we can get him to kind of 1521 01:34:14.239 --> 01:34:18.079 sum this up for so he just joined. Okay, great, Tony, 1522 01:34:18.119 --> 01:34:19.479 how you doing. Good to have you on. 1523 01:34:20.279 --> 01:34:21.640 It's good to see you, David. 1524 01:34:22.319 --> 01:34:25.560 I was just going to talk about how private payrolls, 1525 01:34:25.560 --> 01:34:28.119 you know, they always look at jobs graded, and the 1526 01:34:28.199 --> 01:34:31.399 thing that is dominating this now is the government, because 1527 01:34:31.399 --> 01:34:34.079 the government just keeps hiring more people regardless of anything, 1528 01:34:34.119 --> 01:34:38.640 but private payrolls are contracting, and it's especially small businesses 1529 01:34:38.760 --> 01:34:42.159 because again when they look at this. I understand a 1530 01:34:42.159 --> 01:34:45.319 lot of this is the tariff stuff, but when we 1531 01:34:45.319 --> 01:34:48.479 look at the forecast coming in the next year, as 1532 01:34:48.479 --> 01:34:51.880 I was saying, silver is really the story right now. 1533 01:34:52.119 --> 01:34:56.560 And you've mentioned many times and we all remember when 1534 01:34:56.600 --> 01:35:01.039 the Hunt Brothers tried to corner the silver market. This 1535 01:35:01.159 --> 01:35:03.960 is the fastest that silver has gone up since that happened. 1536 01:35:05.479 --> 01:35:09.920 But this time it's not based on the manipulation. It's 1537 01:35:10.000 --> 01:35:14.159 actually lagging reality that's there. You know, there's been this deficit, 1538 01:35:14.199 --> 01:35:17.319 as you've pointed out many times, a deficit of silver 1539 01:35:17.399 --> 01:35:22.720 being used for industrial purposes as well as for things 1540 01:35:22.760 --> 01:35:26.479 like jewelry, but especially industrial purposes. They've been using more 1541 01:35:26.520 --> 01:35:30.199 silver than they've been mining for many years now, and 1542 01:35:30.279 --> 01:35:33.880 so there's this huge deficit that is there. And then 1543 01:35:34.000 --> 01:35:35.800 the thing that seemed to kick it into high gear. 1544 01:35:35.840 --> 01:35:38.439 Two things this year, I guess, was what happened in 1545 01:35:38.439 --> 01:35:42.279 India where they realized that it was undervalued, and so 1546 01:35:43.479 --> 01:35:45.680 as part of this religious holiday where they go out 1547 01:35:45.720 --> 01:35:49.880 and accumulate usually gold, this time they went out and 1548 01:35:49.920 --> 01:35:54.039 got silver and created a big deficit with that. But 1549 01:35:54.479 --> 01:35:57.000 there was also a disruption when people thought that Trump's 1550 01:35:57.039 --> 01:36:00.159 tariffs were going to be applied to silver. It was 1551 01:36:00.159 --> 01:36:03.520 a huge amount of silver that transferred into the US 1552 01:36:03.640 --> 01:36:06.960 to try to preempt that tariff charge, and then a 1553 01:36:07.079 --> 01:36:11.520 huge outflow from London and the other direction into India, 1554 01:36:11.560 --> 01:36:14.439 and they wound up with not having much physical stuff 1555 01:36:14.479 --> 01:36:18.439 to be able to aspy people. So it is really 1556 01:36:18.560 --> 01:36:20.960 changing now. And what's your take on it? What are 1557 01:36:21.000 --> 01:36:22.720 you seeing there at Wisewolf? 1558 01:36:24.039 --> 01:36:27.880 You're right, the tipping point was the black Swan event 1559 01:36:28.039 --> 01:36:31.479 of the unknown of the Trump tariffs when he took office. 1560 01:36:31.479 --> 01:36:34.880 And if you recall, it's not that long ago. You 1561 01:36:34.920 --> 01:36:37.239 and I had that interview right before the election of 1562 01:36:37.279 --> 01:36:39.760 twenty twenty four and we're talking about what happens if 1563 01:36:39.760 --> 01:36:42.199 there's a Harris win, what happens if Trump went went 1564 01:36:42.279 --> 01:36:45.119 through the scenarios. Remember there was the big crypto boom, 1565 01:36:45.359 --> 01:36:49.560 you know after the election of Trump and gold and 1566 01:36:49.600 --> 01:36:52.479 Silver went on sale. You had you had the cartoon 1567 01:36:53.079 --> 01:36:55.359 Gold and Silver, Yeah, on sales end of the year, 1568 01:36:56.399 --> 01:36:59.279 and they were and you and I knew, I think 1569 01:36:59.319 --> 01:37:03.640 instinctially that this is temporary because when the uncert all 1570 01:37:03.680 --> 01:37:06.800 the uncertainties hit the market, the fear of the uncertainty, 1571 01:37:06.800 --> 01:37:09.640 of the doubt and then you threw in the tariffs 1572 01:37:10.279 --> 01:37:15.039 that started this cascading event. You can couple that with 1573 01:37:15.479 --> 01:37:20.000 countries like Russia putting silver on their balanced sheet as 1574 01:37:20.000 --> 01:37:23.359 a strategic reserve asset. I thought that was huge, and 1575 01:37:23.479 --> 01:37:25.920 it was. It didn't get a lot of coverage or play, 1576 01:37:26.359 --> 01:37:30.159 but the same thing. You know, the word rupee for 1577 01:37:30.479 --> 01:37:34.000 the Indian currency comes from rupia, which means silver. So 1578 01:37:34.079 --> 01:37:39.239 the long history of seeing silver is money. This has 1579 01:37:39.279 --> 01:37:43.920 always been an underlying issue. The Hunt family got people 1580 01:37:44.039 --> 01:37:48.119 to go out and buy physical silver along with themselves, 1581 01:37:48.520 --> 01:37:52.039 and they drove the price up until they were until 1582 01:37:52.079 --> 01:37:54.479 they were bankrupted by the deep state, in my opinion, 1583 01:37:55.000 --> 01:37:56.960 and the powers that be for showing the weakness and 1584 01:37:57.000 --> 01:37:59.960 the dollar that was forty five years of a lot 1585 01:38:00.079 --> 01:38:04.479 all and the difference now and you're absolutely right, David, 1586 01:38:04.760 --> 01:38:08.239 it's not coming from people here, especially in the West. 1587 01:38:08.920 --> 01:38:13.560 People like the average citizen is not going out like 1588 01:38:13.600 --> 01:38:17.159 they were in the nineteen seventies and buying silver, and 1589 01:38:17.760 --> 01:38:21.800 you know, driving that the scarcity up. I'm seeing massive 1590 01:38:21.840 --> 01:38:25.680 amounts of silver flow through shops like mine. A lot 1591 01:38:25.720 --> 01:38:28.680 of places can't even buy anymore because the price has 1592 01:38:28.760 --> 01:38:31.920 risen so high and the liquidity is dried up. However, 1593 01:38:32.000 --> 01:38:37.079 the demand continues. But David, the demand is going to institutions. 1594 01:38:37.399 --> 01:38:39.239 There are some you know, there's some smart people right 1595 01:38:39.239 --> 01:38:42.199 now that are just you know, dollar cost averaging or 1596 01:38:42.239 --> 01:38:45.439 they're realizing that this is not This isn't like a 1597 01:38:45.479 --> 01:38:47.640 market or a bull market that we've seen before that 1598 01:38:47.840 --> 01:38:50.760 isn't the top of the market. We're in price discovery 1599 01:38:50.800 --> 01:38:53.319 at this point because we have forty five years of 1600 01:38:53.399 --> 01:39:00.520 manipulation based off of paper that again it's always been 1601 01:39:00.560 --> 01:39:03.159 called out, this doesn't exist. You know, there's two hundred 1602 01:39:03.199 --> 01:39:06.479 and fifty ounces traded on paper for every one ounce 1603 01:39:06.520 --> 01:39:10.359 that exists in a vault in theory. And now we're 1604 01:39:10.399 --> 01:39:13.279 starting to see all of this stuff and it's it's 1605 01:39:13.319 --> 01:39:16.760 not just one thing, but it's multiple things. The big 1606 01:39:16.800 --> 01:39:19.199 takeaway from all this as somebody on the ground, I mean, 1607 01:39:19.199 --> 01:39:23.239 we go to poor Thanksgiving holiday, you know, it's just 1608 01:39:23.399 --> 01:39:27.560 under fifty dollars and then I come back that Monday 1609 01:39:27.600 --> 01:39:31.840 through the weekend and we're almost we almost break sixty 1610 01:39:31.880 --> 01:39:32.720 dollars an ounce. 1611 01:39:33.119 --> 01:39:33.359 Yeah. 1612 01:39:33.680 --> 01:39:38.840 Yeah, it's massive move. It's because the physical demand in 1613 01:39:38.920 --> 01:39:44.560 this in this era of history that we're in, because 1614 01:39:44.600 --> 01:39:47.640 of the lack of trust because the institutions and this 1615 01:39:47.800 --> 01:39:51.239 fourth turning are starting to you know, the trust diminishes 1616 01:39:51.640 --> 01:39:55.279 the need for physical rises and that's all across the 1617 01:39:55.319 --> 01:39:58.159 board everywhere, not just gold, but now silver and now 1618 01:39:58.159 --> 01:40:00.600 we're in price discovery. I don't know where this, but 1619 01:40:00.640 --> 01:40:07.600 it's again the demand is coming from institutional, multinational and 1620 01:40:09.399 --> 01:40:13.239 again places like India where it's culturally sought after. 1621 01:40:13.600 --> 01:40:18.960 Yeah. Yeah, I like this headline from Jim Quinn Got Gold, 1622 01:40:20.239 --> 01:40:21.439 Got Milk campaign. 1623 01:40:21.640 --> 01:40:23.520 That's a T shirt you should have. It's got gold. 1624 01:40:24.720 --> 01:40:28.479 And he's talking about you're talking about is there any 1625 01:40:29.039 --> 01:40:32.520 gold backing up this paper anywhere? You know, we began 1626 01:40:32.680 --> 01:40:36.840 the year by this innuendo We're going to go audit 1627 01:40:37.000 --> 01:40:40.840 Fort Knox and everything. Notice how that died. Did somebody 1628 01:40:40.840 --> 01:40:44.439 whisper in Trump's ear that there's not really anything there. 1629 01:40:45.680 --> 01:40:47.600 We don't have anywhere near as much as you think 1630 01:40:47.640 --> 01:40:50.399 we do. And at the same time that's happening. What 1631 01:40:50.600 --> 01:40:52.880 he's writing about is something that you've been talking about 1632 01:40:52.960 --> 01:40:55.600 for quite some time, and that is that China has 1633 01:40:55.640 --> 01:40:58.640 been concealing the amount of gold that they have. They 1634 01:40:58.640 --> 01:41:01.079 have a lot more gold than they're actually letting onto 1635 01:41:01.159 --> 01:41:04.479 so I think we have much less than we pretend 1636 01:41:04.479 --> 01:41:07.399 that we have. China has much less than they're telling 1637 01:41:07.439 --> 01:41:09.800 everybody that they've got. That's kind of the way I 1638 01:41:09.840 --> 01:41:11.600 see this thing breaking out. What do you think? 1639 01:41:12.880 --> 01:41:18.600 Oh? Absolutely? And the issue with China, you have to 1640 01:41:18.680 --> 01:41:23.000 unpack that logic. Why did they after George W. Bush 1641 01:41:23.039 --> 01:41:27.119 gave them Most Favored Trading Nation status on December eleventh, 1642 01:41:27.199 --> 01:41:29.840 two thousand and one. We know what happened afterwards. Even 1643 01:41:29.920 --> 01:41:35.000 that was the final blow to the American heartland manufacturing. 1644 01:41:35.119 --> 01:41:37.840 We lost one in three manufacturing jobs in about fifty 1645 01:41:37.840 --> 01:41:41.000 five thousand factories. Those metrics are all there for you 1646 01:41:41.039 --> 01:41:43.520 to go back and look at through history. But what 1647 01:41:43.680 --> 01:41:47.079 China did is they started secretly buying. They were buying 1648 01:41:47.119 --> 01:41:49.600 off the books. They didn't want to raise a lot 1649 01:41:49.600 --> 01:41:51.399 of alarms because they're back then, I mean the beginning 1650 01:41:51.439 --> 01:41:54.199 of the century. You and I both know what gold 1651 01:41:54.319 --> 01:41:58.279 was three hundred dollars an ounce. They were just accumulating. 1652 01:41:58.479 --> 01:42:01.239 Michael Sailors talked a lot about on the bitcoin side. 1653 01:42:01.239 --> 01:42:03.880 He's like, the first nation that actually turns their printing 1654 01:42:03.920 --> 01:42:07.760 press on and starts using fiat currency to buy bitcoin 1655 01:42:07.880 --> 01:42:10.000 is going to win and that's in the bitcoin game 1656 01:42:10.079 --> 01:42:13.000 theory of you know, nation state buying of bitcoin. But 1657 01:42:13.000 --> 01:42:16.720 that really is what happened with gold and China. They 1658 01:42:16.760 --> 01:42:20.520 started using their currency and they started using the trade 1659 01:42:20.520 --> 01:42:23.920 deficits that we were giving them this massive transfer of wealth, 1660 01:42:23.960 --> 01:42:26.199 you know, the trillions and trillions of dollars. They started 1661 01:42:26.199 --> 01:42:30.159 stacking up gold. And let's not forget China is a 1662 01:42:30.199 --> 01:42:34.680 net importer of gold. A lot of times when exploration 1663 01:42:34.800 --> 01:42:36.960 happens in China and there's new mines that are found, 1664 01:42:37.000 --> 01:42:40.720 they nationalize them. With ur Kiyosaki, who wrote Rich Dad 1665 01:42:40.720 --> 01:42:43.600 Pordad found that out. He found a major you know, 1666 01:42:43.720 --> 01:42:46.239 gold vein and had investors and everything, and then when 1667 01:42:46.239 --> 01:42:49.399 he went to renew the lease, the Chinese government took 1668 01:42:49.479 --> 01:42:54.119 the lease. They have sixty thousand gold mines estimated, and 1669 01:42:54.159 --> 01:42:56.439 I don't know how much gold they have. We supposedly 1670 01:42:56.520 --> 01:43:01.319 have about eighty five hundred tons in the US. That's like, 1671 01:43:01.560 --> 01:43:03.079 you know, about half of that's supposed to be at 1672 01:43:03.079 --> 01:43:04.760 Fort and O. Because I don't I don't know if 1673 01:43:04.800 --> 01:43:07.520 it's there or not, but that's about what we're supposed 1674 01:43:07.560 --> 01:43:10.880 to have. They are probably on parody or have more 1675 01:43:10.880 --> 01:43:13.560 gold than us. According to several journalists and people than 1676 01:43:13.600 --> 01:43:16.840 I followed through Kitko. Yeah, so it's it's a question mark. 1677 01:43:16.840 --> 01:43:19.800 But they've been buying secretly, David, and that's a strategic 1678 01:43:19.960 --> 01:43:24.079 move in this century, I think, and knowing what because 1679 01:43:24.079 --> 01:43:26.560 they planned for the long term, so knowing what happens 1680 01:43:26.560 --> 01:43:30.199 to the dollar is you know, in those simulations and 1681 01:43:30.199 --> 01:43:33.720 now we're seeing, you know, d dollarization rapidly. 1682 01:43:33.800 --> 01:43:35.800 Well, that's what they did with Rare Earth. I mean 1683 01:43:35.840 --> 01:43:39.760 they did that quietly, and you know, cornered the market 1684 01:43:39.800 --> 01:43:43.439 really on Rare Earth by buying an American company that 1685 01:43:43.520 --> 01:43:46.279 had cornered the market. But yeah, the figures that you're 1686 01:43:46.319 --> 01:43:49.920 talking about here in this article from Jim Quinn, he says, 1687 01:43:49.920 --> 01:43:54.079 officially China has the sixth largest amount of gold at 1688 01:43:54.119 --> 01:43:57.840 twenty two and eighty tons, and the US is supposedly 1689 01:43:57.920 --> 01:44:02.880 has eight and thirty three. Unofficially, China's reserves are at 1690 01:44:02.960 --> 01:44:06.880 least five thousand tons, and some estimates put it at 1691 01:44:06.960 --> 01:44:09.640 higher than what the US has at eight thousand tons. 1692 01:44:09.720 --> 01:44:12.439 So you know, they're only declaring anywhere from a half 1693 01:44:12.479 --> 01:44:15.439 to a quarter of the gold that they have out there, 1694 01:44:15.479 --> 01:44:19.119 which is kind of interesting. But you know, when you 1695 01:44:19.159 --> 01:44:23.439 look at what is happening with silver. It is skyrocketing. 1696 01:44:23.439 --> 01:44:25.720 And even if you just look at gold and this 1697 01:44:25.880 --> 01:44:28.840 article he points out the price of gold, if you 1698 01:44:28.880 --> 01:44:31.600 look at what has happened with gold versus what has 1699 01:44:31.640 --> 01:44:34.279 happened with the s and P five hundred and NASDAK 1700 01:44:34.920 --> 01:44:38.479 since two thousand. Since January two thousands, over twenty five 1701 01:44:38.560 --> 01:44:42.600 year period, nasdak's gone up five point seven percent, the 1702 01:44:42.680 --> 01:44:45.000 SMP five hundred has gone up four point seven percent, 1703 01:44:45.439 --> 01:44:48.159 and gold has gone up fourteen point seven percent. So 1704 01:44:48.159 --> 01:44:50.680 it's gone up about three times as much as the 1705 01:44:50.720 --> 01:44:55.319 other two, which are around five, you know, by factor 1706 01:44:55.359 --> 01:44:58.359 of five, I should say, So it is pretty amazing. 1707 01:44:58.439 --> 01:45:02.399 And then when you look a at crypto, we're seeing 1708 01:45:02.520 --> 01:45:07.159 so much stuff about is crypto going to collapse now? 1709 01:45:07.560 --> 01:45:11.680 And so forth. We've got the CEO of Blackrock, Rat Fink, 1710 01:45:12.119 --> 01:45:17.479 is out there saying that he's now saying that bitcoin 1711 01:45:17.800 --> 01:45:21.039 is a fear trade, and so he's kind of walking 1712 01:45:21.079 --> 01:45:22.479 some of this stuff back. What do you think is 1713 01:45:22.520 --> 01:45:25.159 going to happen with that with bitcoin? 1714 01:45:26.119 --> 01:45:31.039 Well, I think bitcoin is still related to where we 1715 01:45:31.079 --> 01:45:34.399 are on ded allarization and central bank goal buying, Believe 1716 01:45:34.399 --> 01:45:35.840 it or not, I mean it is there is a 1717 01:45:35.840 --> 01:45:39.199 correlation here, and I think that Larry Fink, if you 1718 01:45:39.279 --> 01:45:42.680 go back and look at his statements, especially to the 1719 01:45:42.680 --> 01:45:46.000 World Economic Forum in Davos and saying that bitcoin is 1720 01:45:46.000 --> 01:45:48.359 going to go to seven hundred thousand, black Rock taking 1721 01:45:48.399 --> 01:45:54.039 the first bitcoin EF Yeah, I do think that there 1722 01:45:54.119 --> 01:45:57.600 is a shakeout right now. I think that's happening with 1723 01:45:57.840 --> 01:46:00.520 and I've talked about this with Travis. I think this 1724 01:46:00.560 --> 01:46:05.560 is happening with gold, silver, and bitcoin. The price metrics 1725 01:46:05.600 --> 01:46:10.159 are different with you know, the silver issue is institutions 1726 01:46:10.159 --> 01:46:13.520 are hungry, they're buying it. There's a limited amount of supply, 1727 01:46:13.600 --> 01:46:17.199 so it's driving the price up. Same thing with gold, 1728 01:46:17.239 --> 01:46:20.359 the physical demand for gold driving the price up because 1729 01:46:20.359 --> 01:46:25.039 its institutions are buying. That's in a real time price metric. However, 1730 01:46:25.119 --> 01:46:28.520 with bitcoin it's a little different because you had a 1731 01:46:28.560 --> 01:46:30.680 you had an all time high in October about one 1732 01:46:30.760 --> 01:46:32.800 hundred and twenty seven thousand, A lot of the old 1733 01:46:32.880 --> 01:46:35.880 wallets started to liquidate and sell off, and I and 1734 01:46:35.920 --> 01:46:39.000 there was some trigger point there where it drove you know, 1735 01:46:39.039 --> 01:46:42.399 bitcoin back into the into the low eighties, and I 1736 01:46:42.399 --> 01:46:44.479 think we're above ninety right now. 1737 01:46:44.880 --> 01:46:47.520 That's funny we talked about. We hear the phrase old money. 1738 01:46:47.560 --> 01:46:50.920 You know, you're talking about old wallets. 1739 01:46:50.640 --> 01:46:55.720 Old wall Yeah, old wallets, the the old holders, the 1740 01:46:55.760 --> 01:46:58.720 hoddlers they sold. There was a big chunk of them 1741 01:46:58.760 --> 01:47:01.039 that sold off and it hadn't been active in a 1742 01:47:01.119 --> 01:47:03.479 very long time. And I think because we're in an 1743 01:47:03.560 --> 01:47:08.680 accumulation phase again. The amount of individuals who hold just 1744 01:47:08.800 --> 01:47:11.720 one bitcoin around the world is about eight hundred and 1745 01:47:11.760 --> 01:47:15.439 fifty thousand, and that's shrinking. So there's in this moment 1746 01:47:15.439 --> 01:47:17.399 in time, there's gonna be less people in the future 1747 01:47:17.399 --> 01:47:21.199 that can hold at least one bitcoin because institutions are 1748 01:47:21.239 --> 01:47:23.439 buying that up. I think the price will reset again 1749 01:47:23.479 --> 01:47:26.279 on bitcoin, probably some time after the first of the year, 1750 01:47:27.680 --> 01:47:30.800 by design, and I think they're going to use bitcoin. 1751 01:47:31.239 --> 01:47:34.960 It's related, David, it's related to the to the stable 1752 01:47:35.000 --> 01:47:37.279 coin system as an off ramp for a store of 1753 01:47:37.359 --> 01:47:41.760 value in the digitized sphere. But that's all theory and 1754 01:47:42.600 --> 01:47:46.439 right now, I mean, that's all price theory. But you're 1755 01:47:46.640 --> 01:47:50.079 you're right. I mean, this is the market. Trump's been 1756 01:47:50.119 --> 01:47:54.479 great for gold because of the uncertainty. If markets were 1757 01:47:54.479 --> 01:47:57.800 more certain right now, if there hadn't been the we 1758 01:47:57.840 --> 01:48:00.159 go reverse engineer. That's if there hadn't been the the 1759 01:48:00.199 --> 01:48:03.079 black Swan event of the tariff threat. If you don't 1760 01:48:03.079 --> 01:48:05.680 have that cascading event, then you don't see these prices 1761 01:48:05.680 --> 01:48:07.600 in metals. It takes a lot longer to get there. 1762 01:48:07.640 --> 01:48:10.439 I knew we would eventually get there, but right now 1763 01:48:10.439 --> 01:48:13.039 it's just price discovery because of the unknown. So that 1764 01:48:13.199 --> 01:48:16.319 none of this is about a healthy place. That's not 1765 01:48:16.399 --> 01:48:19.800 in a healthy economy. We're not in there's there's too 1766 01:48:19.880 --> 01:48:24.119 much unknown. Especially those numbers in small business are about tariffs. 1767 01:48:24.319 --> 01:48:30.319 They're about lack of supply, lack of liquidity, and and uh. 1768 01:48:30.319 --> 01:48:32.279 You know, we look at we'll look at volatility in 1769 01:48:32.319 --> 01:48:34.520 the markets and anything. Well why wouldn't there be volatility? 1770 01:48:34.600 --> 01:48:36.840 Look at what he's doing to global trade. 1771 01:48:37.560 --> 01:48:37.680 Uh. 1772 01:48:38.079 --> 01:48:40.840 You know, whatever the system is that you want, you 1773 01:48:40.920 --> 01:48:43.039 need to have a plan on how to get there, 1774 01:48:43.159 --> 01:48:44.520 and he needs to be done orderly. 1775 01:48:44.680 --> 01:48:44.920 You know. 1776 01:48:44.960 --> 01:48:46.560 It's kind of like the Afghan. 1777 01:48:46.159 --> 01:48:49.600 Pullout that you know, they they decide they're going to 1778 01:48:49.600 --> 01:48:51.680 stay there forever and then they can't do it, so 1779 01:48:51.720 --> 01:48:53.800 then they have to have a panic to pull out. Well, 1780 01:48:53.840 --> 01:48:57.000 that's what's happening with Trump and his tariffs. Uh, he's 1781 01:48:57.000 --> 01:49:00.680 got a plan that's not tenable, and he's constantly adjusting 1782 01:49:00.720 --> 01:49:04.159 it and it's wreaking havoc on everybody. But you know, 1783 01:49:04.199 --> 01:49:06.960 going back to the Bitcoin thing, the plan from the 1784 01:49:07.039 --> 01:49:09.000 very beginning, and I've talked to Adrian Day and a 1785 01:49:09.039 --> 01:49:11.920 lot of people talking about said, yeah, bitcoin's been hijacked. 1786 01:49:12.760 --> 01:49:15.039 It was meant as a currency. 1787 01:49:14.600 --> 01:49:17.199 Exchange and that's why, you know, people used it to 1788 01:49:17.239 --> 01:49:22.279 buy pizza, but then it got hijacked and became a tradable, gambable, 1789 01:49:22.920 --> 01:49:27.279 gamable asset, and that's when people like Larry Fink got in. 1790 01:49:28.439 --> 01:49:31.479 Just a few years ago, he reminded people that he 1791 01:49:31.720 --> 01:49:37.359 was saying that it was the cryptocurrencies were all about 1792 01:49:37.399 --> 01:49:43.640 illicit activities that you know, as if using cash or 1793 01:49:43.680 --> 01:49:46.319 even a bank like HSBC had nothing to do with 1794 01:49:46.319 --> 01:49:48.760 the drug trade, right, I mean, HSBC was a money 1795 01:49:48.800 --> 01:49:52.640 launderer for the Sana looa cartel of mini terrorist organiz organisms, 1796 01:49:52.680 --> 01:49:55.119 and they got caught doing that and fined for doing 1797 01:49:55.119 --> 01:49:58.760 that many times. But they put it all on bitcoin. 1798 01:49:59.439 --> 01:50:03.720 And so he said he didn't think that it was 1799 01:50:03.760 --> 01:50:07.199 going to be that big because it was simply about 1800 01:50:07.359 --> 01:50:10.800 illicit money laundering and things like that. But he says, 1801 01:50:10.840 --> 01:50:13.319 my thought process has always evolved. You and I have 1802 01:50:13.399 --> 01:50:16.119 talked about especially you have talked about the fact that 1803 01:50:16.279 --> 01:50:20.079 why would you set up an ETF for bitcoin? Right? 1804 01:50:20.159 --> 01:50:24.079 Bitcoin is already a digital token, a digital asset, and 1805 01:50:24.159 --> 01:50:28.680 it is infinitely subdivisible and tradable, just like an ETF. 1806 01:50:29.079 --> 01:50:32.159 You know, when they token I is a real asset. 1807 01:50:32.920 --> 01:50:35.199 That's the argument that they make. We're going to be 1808 01:50:35.239 --> 01:50:40.000 able to subdivide it infinitely and immediately transfer it, and 1809 01:50:40.279 --> 01:50:43.359 it's going to be without any national borders or anything that. Well, 1810 01:50:43.399 --> 01:50:46.680 bitcoin is already there, so why do that? And it 1811 01:50:46.720 --> 01:50:50.119 was clearly I thought a pumping up scheme, And I 1812 01:50:50.119 --> 01:50:53.239 think everything that Ratfink a black Rock is doing is 1813 01:50:53.239 --> 01:50:57.479 really a pumping dump. So now he's out there calling 1814 01:50:57.520 --> 01:50:59.840 it the asset of fear? What do you read under that? 1815 01:50:59.880 --> 01:51:00.159 Now? 1816 01:51:01.000 --> 01:51:02.800 Is it time for him to take his profits and 1817 01:51:02.880 --> 01:51:03.119 move on? 1818 01:51:05.159 --> 01:51:08.159 In my opinion, it's not that it's not that time yet. 1819 01:51:08.199 --> 01:51:11.760 But you're right about this is this is about the accumulation, 1820 01:51:13.199 --> 01:51:19.279 uh and cornering the supply of bitcoin is again, there's 1821 01:51:19.479 --> 01:51:22.840 less and less individuals on well at least one bitcoin. 1822 01:51:23.239 --> 01:51:25.239 If you look at the population of the Earth, that's 1823 01:51:25.239 --> 01:51:28.720 a small amount of people, less than what is it. 1824 01:51:28.760 --> 01:51:31.039 There's more millionaires on Earth than own at least twelve 1825 01:51:31.079 --> 01:51:34.560 hundred dollars in bitcoin. So what drives the price there 1826 01:51:34.640 --> 01:51:39.359 again is institutions, and they did they hijacked it in 1827 01:51:39.399 --> 01:51:43.199 a way, especially with the ETFs, with the amount of 1828 01:51:44.159 --> 01:51:47.920 investment that they hold, and they manage for boomers that 1829 01:51:48.000 --> 01:51:50.640 are not going to go buy most of them are 1830 01:51:50.680 --> 01:51:52.319 going to have their own wallet. They're not going to 1831 01:51:52.359 --> 01:51:53.920 be solved and not going to store it and have 1832 01:51:54.039 --> 01:51:56.960 cold storage or their own keys. They're gonna they might 1833 01:51:57.000 --> 01:51:58.720 want to dabble in it, so they get in through 1834 01:51:58.880 --> 01:52:01.840 one of these products, and it allows black Rock and 1835 01:52:01.960 --> 01:52:06.479 other big companies to control that supply, and it's going 1836 01:52:06.680 --> 01:52:11.319 to create scarcity, you know, the price. And I think 1837 01:52:12.000 --> 01:52:14.880 the individuals out there are just you know, looking into 1838 01:52:14.880 --> 01:52:18.199 bitcoin is less and less, but institutions grow more and more. 1839 01:52:18.239 --> 01:52:21.520 It's the same thing. It really is on the same 1840 01:52:21.600 --> 01:52:24.680 timeline as what's going on with gold and silver. But 1841 01:52:25.119 --> 01:52:28.119 because of the supply issue with bitcoin, the way it's 1842 01:52:28.199 --> 01:52:31.199 different and the way it's digitized, it's not really driving 1843 01:52:31.199 --> 01:52:37.880 the price yet. I think that's all about taking minite 1844 01:52:37.960 --> 01:52:44.880 assets in a fiat world away from individuals and on 1845 01:52:44.920 --> 01:52:48.000 the lower economic strata or the mid economic strata, and 1846 01:52:48.039 --> 01:52:51.439 putting it into the hands of the giant players. That's 1847 01:52:51.520 --> 01:52:53.960 my opinion. I think that's going on gold, silver, bitcoin, 1848 01:52:54.000 --> 01:52:55.159 across the board right now. 1849 01:52:55.319 --> 01:52:58.960 Yeah, I agree, yeah, of course, you know, it's the 1850 01:52:59.000 --> 01:53:03.039 hijacking and making it into an asset rather than a 1851 01:53:03.119 --> 01:53:05.800 currency to trade. And then the second step I think 1852 01:53:05.880 --> 01:53:07.840 was this etf thing that's out there. But he had 1853 01:53:07.840 --> 01:53:10.479 an interesting quote. He said, if you bought bitcoin for 1854 01:53:10.520 --> 01:53:15.239 a trade, it is a very volatile asset. And that's 1855 01:53:15.239 --> 01:53:17.439 why I've said many times I'm too old to ride 1856 01:53:17.479 --> 01:53:20.680 roller coaster, so I'm too old for bitcoin. But he says, 1857 01:53:20.680 --> 01:53:23.960 you're going to have to be really good at market timing, 1858 01:53:24.439 --> 01:53:29.600 which most people aren't. And somebody like Ratfink doesn't have 1859 01:53:29.640 --> 01:53:31.840 to time the market. He can make the market. He 1860 01:53:31.880 --> 01:53:34.600 can manipulate the market, you know, so you always he's 1861 01:53:34.640 --> 01:53:37.000 like the if this is a casino, he's like the 1862 01:53:37.079 --> 01:53:39.680 house that's there. And most of the time people run 1863 01:53:39.720 --> 01:53:42.920 casinos don't go bankrupt like Donald Trump. They know what 1864 01:53:42.960 --> 01:53:46.239 they're doing, So you got to be careful with that 1865 01:53:46.319 --> 01:53:46.840 type of thing. 1866 01:53:46.880 --> 01:53:50.840 I think it doesn't make you a genius to be 1867 01:53:50.920 --> 01:53:53.800 an insider and be able to pull the left right. Well, 1868 01:53:53.840 --> 01:53:57.560 it makes the economy go back backwards, forwards or sideways. 1869 01:53:57.600 --> 01:54:00.680 And you know you're not You're not gifted with some 1870 01:54:00.720 --> 01:54:04.399 special powers. You just have insider influence. And I think 1871 01:54:04.439 --> 01:54:08.319 that's you know, timing the market. Doing all that with bitcoin, 1872 01:54:09.159 --> 01:54:11.319 I would never be able to do that. I dollar 1873 01:54:11.359 --> 01:54:13.359 cost average, I buy a little bit and I'm going 1874 01:54:13.399 --> 01:54:16.159 to hold and I you know, I've put that into 1875 01:54:16.279 --> 01:54:19.039 my business model, so I will ride bitcoin to zero. 1876 01:54:19.119 --> 01:54:20.720 If it goes to zero, then I'm going to ride 1877 01:54:20.760 --> 01:54:23.000 it to zero. I don't think it's going there, but 1878 01:54:23.520 --> 01:54:25.800 that's a commitment I've already made. And same thing with 1879 01:54:26.399 --> 01:54:28.359 you know, I might be wrong on metals. I don't 1880 01:54:28.399 --> 01:54:30.880 see how I would be, given history and the fact 1881 01:54:30.880 --> 01:54:33.239 that they're gonna as soon as they get this new 1882 01:54:33.279 --> 01:54:36.079 FED chair. I mean, I think all bets are off. 1883 01:54:36.079 --> 01:54:38.800 I think this is the last run of the current 1884 01:54:38.920 --> 01:54:41.479 dollar system as we know it. I think going into 1885 01:54:41.479 --> 01:54:44.479 twenty twenty six, and we got four years left before 1886 01:54:45.680 --> 01:54:49.479 twenty thirty. I think that the printer, the amount of 1887 01:54:49.560 --> 01:54:52.359 liquidity that's going to be created. David is going to 1888 01:54:52.439 --> 01:54:56.880 be unprecedented, and it's only going to continue to reflect 1889 01:54:56.920 --> 01:55:00.359 over in these these prices. I mean, silver's up eighty 1890 01:55:00.399 --> 01:55:04.960 eight percent over the dollar in the last twelve months. Wow, 1891 01:55:05.840 --> 01:55:08.920 eight percent. And I think we're just getting started. I 1892 01:55:09.359 --> 01:55:11.920 really don't think that we're at the you know, there's 1893 01:55:11.960 --> 01:55:15.960 always going to be a pullback in times, David. But 1894 01:55:16.039 --> 01:55:19.560 I given the metrics of what I'm watching now, and 1895 01:55:19.600 --> 01:55:22.399 this is just being a dealer in two states. And 1896 01:55:23.359 --> 01:55:26.119 you know, I'm not a big company, but we do 1897 01:55:26.279 --> 01:55:31.000 enough business nationally to make a dent. And I can 1898 01:55:31.039 --> 01:55:33.600 promise you it's not what It's not like any other 1899 01:55:33.760 --> 01:55:36.960 model that I've ever seen since I've been in business. 1900 01:55:37.760 --> 01:55:41.159 And I continue to see the price rise and these 1901 01:55:41.279 --> 01:55:45.319 this flow outwards to wholesalers, and then it's going onwards, 1902 01:55:45.359 --> 01:55:50.199 like the physical demand is slipping away from regular people 1903 01:55:50.439 --> 01:55:52.880 going up the ladder to institutions. 1904 01:55:53.199 --> 01:55:55.319 Yeah. I remember when we were talking about that. There 1905 01:55:55.399 --> 01:55:58.159 was there was a clip on YouTube and we talked 1906 01:55:58.159 --> 01:56:01.960 about it. This guy I went to like a small 1907 01:56:02.960 --> 01:56:05.520 precious metals show, you know, kind of like a gun show. 1908 01:56:05.560 --> 01:56:07.479 If you see people set up their tables and they 1909 01:56:07.600 --> 01:56:10.960 got they bring some stuff there to buy and to sell, 1910 01:56:11.520 --> 01:56:15.199 and they were saying, we can't get enough silver, you know, 1911 01:56:15.239 --> 01:56:17.399 and it's it's all being taken. And this is you know, 1912 01:56:17.439 --> 01:56:19.760 early summer is all being taken by these institutions. And 1913 01:56:19.840 --> 01:56:22.960 yet he says, all the average people coming in here, 1914 01:56:23.000 --> 01:56:26.399 they're having to sell their silver. And and he said, 1915 01:56:26.399 --> 01:56:29.520 and I really feel like, you know, that's a that 1916 01:56:29.560 --> 01:56:32.239 doesn't make any sense. But they don't have the money. 1917 01:56:32.239 --> 01:56:36.920 They have to liquidate the position. And they were all 1918 01:56:36.960 --> 01:56:38.680 saying that. They went around and talked to all these 1919 01:56:38.720 --> 01:56:41.960 different dealers and they said, yeah, nobody here is buying silver, 1920 01:56:42.079 --> 01:56:45.199 but it's tremendous demand elsewhere, same thing that you were 1921 01:56:45.239 --> 01:56:49.079 saying at that. And you know, so this this Kitko article, 1922 01:56:49.119 --> 01:56:51.880 they got a guy who used to be in the 1923 01:56:51.880 --> 01:56:56.039 mining industry and he just keeps repeating over and over again. 1924 01:56:56.479 --> 01:56:58.720 Physical is king, is what he's saying. 1925 01:56:59.319 --> 01:57:00.720 And now you know. 1926 01:57:00.720 --> 01:57:04.760 This EBB and flow with the tariff concern and the 1927 01:57:04.840 --> 01:57:08.119 demand in India. He doesn't mention the point that you made, 1928 01:57:08.119 --> 01:57:11.960 which I think is very important, which is Russia putting 1929 01:57:12.000 --> 01:57:14.720 that in as part of their central bank. But again, 1930 01:57:14.800 --> 01:57:18.399 it's physical, it's not having something that is a digital 1931 01:57:18.439 --> 01:57:21.479 token of a digital asset even I mean as bad 1932 01:57:21.520 --> 01:57:25.680 as paper gold and paper silver, kind of a tokenized 1933 01:57:25.800 --> 01:57:29.479 version of gold that you have to trust the Shanghai 1934 01:57:29.560 --> 01:57:34.399 Gold Exchange. To me, the very name itself makes it 1935 01:57:34.479 --> 01:57:37.359 kind of absurd to think that I could trust these 1936 01:57:37.359 --> 01:57:40.159 people are going to get my money is shanghaied. If 1937 01:57:40.199 --> 01:57:42.800 I want to one to own gold or silver, I 1938 01:57:42.800 --> 01:57:44.319 don't want to put it in that type of thing. 1939 01:57:44.359 --> 01:57:48.960 But the the ETFs that people get into, you know, 1940 01:57:49.439 --> 01:57:51.880 they're so crazy to get into ETFs. It's not just 1941 01:57:51.920 --> 01:57:53.560 gold and silver, it's even worse than they put it 1942 01:57:53.560 --> 01:57:59.680 into bitcoin. But really physical is king, because that's the 1943 01:57:59.680 --> 01:58:01.359 only that you know that you've really got it. We've 1944 01:58:01.359 --> 01:58:02.520 got a couple of questions. 1945 01:58:02.199 --> 01:58:05.359 Here, and Tony you've always been extremely good about pointing 1946 01:58:05.359 --> 01:58:07.720 out and you know, stating on the show, it's like 1947 01:58:07.800 --> 01:58:10.760 you feel bitcoin is a more speculative asset. It's more 1948 01:58:10.800 --> 01:58:13.800 akin to a typical stock in the sense of, well, 1949 01:58:13.840 --> 01:58:15.880 you know, the market is very volatile, it can go 1950 01:58:15.960 --> 01:58:19.439 up and go down, and there's no real way of 1951 01:58:19.520 --> 01:58:22.239 telling what it's going to do. You provide people the 1952 01:58:22.319 --> 01:58:24.920 abilities like if you want bitcoin, I'll sell it to you. 1953 01:58:25.279 --> 01:58:28.359 I'm not necessarily all in on it myself. I'm more 1954 01:58:28.399 --> 01:58:31.079 of a gold and silver guy, and I've always appreciated 1955 01:58:31.079 --> 01:58:34.279 that gold and silver are proven throughout history. Bitcoin, to 1956 01:58:34.279 --> 01:58:36.840 me as always again it's had people have gotten mega 1957 01:58:36.920 --> 01:58:39.119 wealthy off of bitcoin, but in the same way that 1958 01:58:39.159 --> 01:58:42.319 people sometimes pick winning stocks and the market goes crazy. 1959 01:58:42.720 --> 01:58:44.960 So to me, that's always been something that's there. It's 1960 01:58:45.000 --> 01:58:50.079 like every other cryptocurrency. It's just it's again a speculative 1961 01:58:50.159 --> 01:58:52.479 thing you can put money in if you have money 1962 01:58:52.520 --> 01:58:54.479 to burn. To me, it's one of those things like 1963 01:58:54.520 --> 01:58:56.319 if you've got the extra cash and you want to 1964 01:58:56.319 --> 01:58:59.960 fool around with it, that's fine, but there's no telling 1965 01:59:00.119 --> 01:59:01.920 what it's going to do, and there's no guarantee you're 1966 01:59:01.920 --> 01:59:04.039 going to make money. There's no guarantee you're not going 1967 01:59:04.079 --> 01:59:07.319 to lose at all. It's just another speculative asset, whereas 1968 01:59:07.319 --> 01:59:11.000 gold and silver are proven throughout history, They've always been 1969 01:59:11.039 --> 01:59:13.920 money and are likely to always be money unless someone, 1970 01:59:14.159 --> 01:59:16.279 you know, brain wipes everyone on the planet. 1971 01:59:17.000 --> 01:59:21.239 So and mine shares in some corporation that's in Shanghai. Yeah, 1972 01:59:21.439 --> 01:59:23.680 promising you that they really do have gold and silver. 1973 01:59:23.760 --> 01:59:25.600 I mean that that guess us back to the whole 1974 01:59:25.600 --> 01:59:28.159 fiat currency. Yeah, there really is golden fort and we 1975 01:59:28.239 --> 01:59:29.520 promise so sure about that. 1976 01:59:30.039 --> 01:59:33.520 We know JP Morgan has moved their gold desk. They're 1977 01:59:33.520 --> 01:59:36.359 moving it to Shanghai. Maybe they need they need to 1978 01:59:36.479 --> 01:59:39.079 verify a closer to the source. So because that's where 1979 01:59:39.079 --> 01:59:42.600 everything's and especially in that market is flowing. And you know, 1980 01:59:42.640 --> 01:59:46.399 you're right, Travis, it's it's theory. I think a bitcoin 1981 01:59:47.399 --> 01:59:50.680 because of we'ren int a digitized age, and that's I 1982 01:59:50.760 --> 01:59:53.520 think that block chain technology is really important and I've 1983 01:59:53.520 --> 01:59:58.680 been in the space for since twenty sixteen. It is speculative, 1984 01:59:58.800 --> 02:00:01.920 it is volatile, but bitcoin's unique though in the sense 1985 02:00:01.960 --> 02:00:06.560 that there is no company. It's it's not you can 1986 02:00:06.840 --> 02:00:08.359 make an ETF and you can do all the rest, 1987 02:00:08.399 --> 02:00:11.960 but the network is still decentralized. And so the theory 1988 02:00:12.079 --> 02:00:16.039 is in a world of infinite FIOD, it's this finite 1989 02:00:16.680 --> 02:00:19.479 you know, digitized asset if you want to call it that, 1990 02:00:20.199 --> 02:00:24.840 And those two ideas are clashing, and to me, I'm 1991 02:00:24.880 --> 02:00:28.479 always going to go with what is scarce, and especially 1992 02:00:28.520 --> 02:00:32.000 if the network continues to make inroads and there's more 1993 02:00:32.039 --> 02:00:36.640 adoption over time, it may not go parabolic the way 1994 02:00:36.680 --> 02:00:39.239 that it has in the past. You know, when I 1995 02:00:39.279 --> 02:00:41.880 was by, I bought my first bitcoin at four hundred dollars. 1996 02:00:41.880 --> 02:00:43.640 I wish i'd kept it. I didn't. I put it 1997 02:00:43.680 --> 02:00:46.159 through my machines. I've said that many times on shows. 1998 02:00:46.159 --> 02:00:50.720 I was just servicing customers. So looking at how far 1999 02:00:51.199 --> 02:00:53.479 we've gone from buying, you know, four hundred dollars bitcoin 2000 02:00:53.520 --> 02:00:56.600 in twenty sixteen to one hundred and twenty seven thousand 2001 02:00:56.920 --> 02:01:00.560 in October, I just think it's a long we have 2002 02:01:00.640 --> 02:01:04.239 to wait and see. Where as opposed to gold and silver, 2003 02:01:04.399 --> 02:01:07.760 physical physical gold and silver with no counterparty risk, you know, 2004 02:01:07.800 --> 02:01:11.199 holding it like, here's this, I decided, like just for me, 2005 02:01:11.399 --> 02:01:15.560 I'm a dealer, I'm trying to get for my savings. 2006 02:01:15.600 --> 02:01:17.520 I'm trying to get one ounce a day if I 2007 02:01:17.520 --> 02:01:19.119 can do that, if I can afford it, if I 2008 02:01:19.159 --> 02:01:21.960 can you know, buy it from you know, a bulk 2009 02:01:22.039 --> 02:01:24.359 buy or something. But yesterday I just took home a 2010 02:01:24.560 --> 02:01:27.159 Morgan silver dollar, you know, that's what I's here on 2011 02:01:27.239 --> 02:01:30.800 my counter and brought it back to my my loft. 2012 02:01:30.840 --> 02:01:33.119 I just said, I'm going to get one ounce a 2013 02:01:33.199 --> 02:01:36.680 day if I can and put that away, and I 2014 02:01:36.760 --> 02:01:38.800 might start doing some posts on that on what type 2015 02:01:38.840 --> 02:01:40.960 of bounces I'm buying, or you know the history of 2016 02:01:41.000 --> 02:01:43.119 that coin. But to see if I can dollar cost 2017 02:01:43.279 --> 02:01:45.359 I average that we'll see I might not. If silver 2018 02:01:45.479 --> 02:01:47.039 continues to do what it's doing, I might not be 2019 02:01:47.079 --> 02:01:48.760 able to afford it. I'm might have to do do 2020 02:01:48.880 --> 02:01:52.800 half ouncers or you know, three nineteen sixty five. So 2021 02:01:52.840 --> 02:01:56.039 there's there's a lot of the physical demand is I think, 2022 02:01:56.159 --> 02:01:59.920 is what's driving the price. And I think we're just 2023 02:02:00.119 --> 02:02:00.880 getting started. 2024 02:02:01.600 --> 02:02:03.680 Yeah, there's a couple of comments about that as well. 2025 02:02:03.680 --> 02:02:06.199 Marky Mark says for silver to break its record in 2026 02:02:06.239 --> 02:02:08.680 real terms, it would have to reach one hundred and 2027 02:02:08.720 --> 02:02:11.960 ninety seven dollars to exceed it's nineteen eighty record of 2028 02:02:12.079 --> 02:02:14.199 fifty dollars no ounce, right. 2029 02:02:14.359 --> 02:02:17.680 Yeah, that's what I've long said that. Yeah, as far 2030 02:02:17.720 --> 02:02:20.800 as adjusting that fifty two dollars and fifty cents in 2031 02:02:20.920 --> 02:02:25.239 nineteen eighty, to adjust that in twenty twenty five, all 2032 02:02:25.239 --> 02:02:27.720 are purchasing power, it's about riots by two hure and 2033 02:02:27.720 --> 02:02:31.239 fifty dollars somewhere in there. We don't quite know, yes, 2034 02:02:31.880 --> 02:02:34.600 but I think we're just getting started, because it's only 2035 02:02:34.680 --> 02:02:39.239 a fraction of the real demand that it could be 2036 02:02:39.520 --> 02:02:42.439 once people I think the average person when they start saying, well, 2037 02:02:42.600 --> 02:02:44.680 you know, I got to get in on this silver thing. 2038 02:02:45.880 --> 02:02:47.720 We've seen this in the last few years. I've talked 2039 02:02:47.760 --> 02:02:50.079 about it on your show, where there's been some some 2040 02:02:50.279 --> 02:02:55.159 quiet larger purchases that have gone out in my like 2041 02:02:55.199 --> 02:02:57.359 not just my business, but people that I know and 2042 02:02:57.560 --> 02:03:01.000 across the board especially. There was a Texas billionaire put 2043 02:03:01.039 --> 02:03:05.199 in an order about three years ago for I think 2044 02:03:05.199 --> 02:03:07.399 it was like, you know, half a billion dollars or something, 2045 02:03:07.840 --> 02:03:11.119 and it took dealers all over the country to fill 2046 02:03:11.119 --> 02:03:14.000 that order. Like it wasn't It wasn't like an easy 2047 02:03:14.039 --> 02:03:18.600 thing because the physical supply is so short. And I 2048 02:03:18.600 --> 02:03:21.399 think another thing that's happening right now, just a little 2049 02:03:21.399 --> 02:03:24.560 inside baseball. You look at some of these big wholesalers. 2050 02:03:24.680 --> 02:03:28.560 It's taking dealers weeks to get paid. So like if 2051 02:03:28.560 --> 02:03:31.039 you sell me something and I the closer I can 2052 02:03:31.039 --> 02:03:33.319 get to spot if I can't sell it to an individual, 2053 02:03:33.359 --> 02:03:34.920 if I want to sell it to a wholesaler, I 2054 02:03:35.000 --> 02:03:38.079 might not get paid for a while. So the cash 2055 02:03:38.119 --> 02:03:41.359 flow is kinking up. So you're seeing again it's this 2056 02:03:41.720 --> 02:03:44.600 perfect storm where there's the big demand, prices going up, 2057 02:03:44.680 --> 02:03:48.439 people are selling, and then the liquidity for it drives up. 2058 02:03:48.640 --> 02:03:52.319 It's it's remarkable to see the price staying where it 2059 02:03:52.439 --> 02:03:53.319 is based. 2060 02:03:53.079 --> 02:03:55.720 Off of that. So that brings us a couple of 2061 02:03:55.800 --> 02:03:59.239 questions that are here there Ratisborough, thank you for the tip. 2062 02:03:59.239 --> 02:04:03.039 It says, will we be realistically able to sell silver 2063 02:04:03.119 --> 02:04:07.119 if it goes to goes past a one hundred dollars 2064 02:04:07.159 --> 02:04:09.239 an ounce or will we just have to sit on it? 2065 02:04:09.279 --> 02:04:10.640 He asked, what do you think? 2066 02:04:10.680 --> 02:04:13.640 I think it's a great question. Yeah, every day I'm 2067 02:04:13.680 --> 02:04:16.920 having to adjust my buying prices and I've never been 2068 02:04:16.920 --> 02:04:20.079 in this territory before, and it's not about me. I'm 2069 02:04:20.119 --> 02:04:22.520 not making more money, but I had to drop the 2070 02:04:22.720 --> 02:04:27.439 percentages based off of the speed because I don't have 2071 02:04:27.520 --> 02:04:30.600 unlimited capital. I mean, I'm not black Rock and I'm 2072 02:04:30.640 --> 02:04:33.680 not the US government order owe palaties can't go to 2073 02:04:33.720 --> 02:04:36.479 the printing press and make more dollars. I have a 2074 02:04:36.520 --> 02:04:39.600 finite amount of them than I can use for liquidity. 2075 02:04:39.760 --> 02:04:43.840 So we look at that every single day and it's 2076 02:04:43.880 --> 02:04:47.880 actually it's really good for if you know me, Like 2077 02:04:47.920 --> 02:04:50.079 if you're a listening to the show and you want 2078 02:04:50.119 --> 02:04:52.279 to get in on some silver, maybe just a little bit. 2079 02:04:52.920 --> 02:04:56.119 We've got stuff at Spot, Like I'm able to sell 2080 02:04:56.199 --> 02:04:59.760 right now with a bunch of items just at spots. 2081 02:05:00.000 --> 02:05:03.520 Whatever Spot's trading for, you know, you can always get 2082 02:05:03.760 --> 02:05:06.960 through David Knight Dot Gold. And I'm not doing an infomercial. 2083 02:05:06.960 --> 02:05:09.960 I'm just like that is that is huge that that's 2084 02:05:10.039 --> 02:05:13.119 never happened before. We've always had premiums placed and a 2085 02:05:13.159 --> 02:05:15.800 lot of items still do. But there's a whole bunch 2086 02:05:15.840 --> 02:05:17.720 of stuff right now that we've got that we can 2087 02:05:17.800 --> 02:05:20.399 just do and trade at Spot. And I think that's 2088 02:05:20.399 --> 02:05:23.920 the upside to what's happening right now for the average 2089 02:05:23.920 --> 02:05:26.239 consumer and that wants to get some physical silver, and 2090 02:05:26.680 --> 02:05:28.720 there's a lot more deals in the market. I do 2091 02:05:28.760 --> 02:05:32.399 think no matter what the price goes to, you're always 2092 02:05:32.439 --> 02:05:34.600 going to be able to sell your silver. Okay, I 2093 02:05:34.600 --> 02:05:37.239 wouldn't worry about that. It's just you may not get 2094 02:05:37.520 --> 02:05:40.960 you know, used to back when silver was fifteen dollars 2095 02:05:41.000 --> 02:05:43.399 an ounce. David, I'll give you ninety five percent a 2096 02:05:43.439 --> 02:05:47.279 spot on one hundred ounce bar, I might make three percent, 2097 02:05:47.479 --> 02:05:49.640 you know, especially if if there's no buyers, like on 2098 02:05:49.680 --> 02:05:52.920 a retail side, i'd sell to a wholesaler. Well, right now, 2099 02:05:52.920 --> 02:05:56.239 I'm going to buy eighty five, and I don't want to. 2100 02:05:57.079 --> 02:05:59.119 There's no the wholesaleer is going to take three weeks 2101 02:05:59.119 --> 02:06:00.840 to pay me, so I have to sell to a refiner. 2102 02:06:00.920 --> 02:06:02.960 So it's just there's. 2103 02:06:03.640 --> 02:06:05.680 Well, what you're kind of dealing with is is what 2104 02:06:05.800 --> 02:06:08.560 you know, people who live in countries who have hyperinflation, 2105 02:06:08.920 --> 02:06:10.479 it's kind of what they have to deal with. You know, 2106 02:06:10.520 --> 02:06:13.560 I go out and I buy something, and you know, 2107 02:06:14.039 --> 02:06:16.079 all of a sudden, now you know, the value of 2108 02:06:16.119 --> 02:06:18.920 it goes up, or you know, it's constantly trying to 2109 02:06:18.920 --> 02:06:22.680 adjust to these rapidly changing, volatile prices. And yet what 2110 02:06:22.680 --> 02:06:27.239 we're really seeing here is not hyper inflation of silver, 2111 02:06:27.680 --> 02:06:32.039 not hyper inflation of gold. We're seeing hyper deflation of 2112 02:06:32.079 --> 02:06:34.079 the dollar in a sense, yes, and we're going to 2113 02:06:34.159 --> 02:06:37.079 see a lot more of that because all of the 2114 02:06:37.119 --> 02:06:39.720 things that are there that are making the dollar lose 2115 02:06:39.800 --> 02:06:45.960 value are all accelerating, especially under Trump, and so it's 2116 02:06:46.000 --> 02:06:50.680 really living in a combination of hyper deflation hyper inflation. 2117 02:06:51.520 --> 02:06:54.479 So you've got a job that I don't envy. It 2118 02:06:54.560 --> 02:06:56.039 must be very difficult to do that. 2119 02:06:56.119 --> 02:06:58.359 We still have some more questions and kinds for you 2120 02:06:58.399 --> 02:07:02.720 as well. Tony ten eleven says, question when silver hit 2121 02:07:02.720 --> 02:07:05.319 the highs in nineteen eighty, did they stop all orders 2122 02:07:05.359 --> 02:07:07.720 except sell orders to drive the price down? 2123 02:07:09.239 --> 02:07:09.960 Yeah? What happened? 2124 02:07:09.960 --> 02:07:12.399 That all went down like it was going way up 2125 02:07:12.439 --> 02:07:14.840 in nineteen seventy nine, and then in March in nineteen eighty, 2126 02:07:15.039 --> 02:07:17.920 boom it hits And well, do you remember what the 2127 02:07:17.960 --> 02:07:20.760 mechanism with that was, I mean, was that how did 2128 02:07:20.760 --> 02:07:21.560 they put on the brake? 2129 02:07:22.520 --> 02:07:26.520 What I think a part of that, if I'm correct 2130 02:07:26.520 --> 02:07:29.680 in my history, was there was this there was this 2131 02:07:29.840 --> 02:07:34.760 stoppage of the hunts being able to they halted their 2132 02:07:34.840 --> 02:07:39.399 trading and then they made them liquefy. They dumped that 2133 02:07:39.560 --> 02:07:43.119 silver that they had been hoarding, and then they warehouse 2134 02:07:43.199 --> 02:07:45.319 all over the place they were having to put they 2135 02:07:45.399 --> 02:07:48.079 put that back on the market. It was a swift 2136 02:07:48.479 --> 02:07:53.520 sell off, and it happened this I think perfect storm. 2137 02:07:53.680 --> 02:07:57.560 Well it was it was planned. They put that into motion, 2138 02:07:57.680 --> 02:08:00.000 I think because it was exposing the weakness of the dollars. 2139 02:08:00.000 --> 02:08:05.560 The same thing a less a dramatic you know, a 2140 02:08:05.640 --> 02:08:08.000 less dramatic push was gold at the same time, because 2141 02:08:08.000 --> 02:08:10.079 you remember it's eight hundred dollars a bounce I remember 2142 02:08:10.560 --> 02:08:14.760 in nineteen eighty and then and then collapsed, same thing. 2143 02:08:14.800 --> 02:08:16.680 So I think that was that was a push with 2144 02:08:16.880 --> 02:08:21.880 the powers that be and the interest rates being driven 2145 02:08:21.960 --> 02:08:25.399 to the teens to contract the money supply the dollar 2146 02:08:25.439 --> 02:08:29.359 system and the sell off that was forced. There was 2147 02:08:29.359 --> 02:08:33.319 a forced liquidation. Then nobody picked that that back up. 2148 02:08:33.399 --> 02:08:35.119 I mean no one, no one ever did what the 2149 02:08:35.159 --> 02:08:37.600 Hunts did. And that's not what's happening now. There's no 2150 02:08:37.680 --> 02:08:40.279 one cornering the market. This is literally just twenty five 2151 02:08:40.319 --> 02:08:41.720 years of manipulation falling. 2152 02:08:41.800 --> 02:08:43.079 Part yeah, well that one. 2153 02:08:43.119 --> 02:08:45.840 What they could do is basically because the crash and 2154 02:08:45.880 --> 02:08:48.640 then just wipe the make them liquefy and wipe the 2155 02:08:48.640 --> 02:08:50.600 blood off of the dashboard and resell the car. 2156 02:08:50.680 --> 02:08:51.479 Right yep. 2157 02:08:52.319 --> 02:08:57.920 That flooded the system with the and right now that's 2158 02:08:57.960 --> 02:09:00.399 what's driving the price is the un own and the 2159 02:09:00.439 --> 02:09:04.239 paper you can't paper over it anymore, and the new 2160 02:09:04.279 --> 02:09:07.479 exchanges that are opening up, and then the governmental demands 2161 02:09:07.520 --> 02:09:14.920 and even China is putting silver. This is the technological asset. 2162 02:09:15.000 --> 02:09:17.920 That silver is the monetary asset. You know, all the 2163 02:09:18.039 --> 02:09:23.960 stuff for electrical and solar and everything else. It's all 2164 02:09:24.079 --> 02:09:26.840 the things are happening at once, and I don't think 2165 02:09:26.920 --> 02:09:29.079 that we're at the top of a market. This is 2166 02:09:29.119 --> 02:09:31.079 my opinion and not investment advice. 2167 02:09:31.279 --> 02:09:33.399 And I remember when you were saying, you know, all 2168 02:09:33.439 --> 02:09:36.920 the silver that's in, for example, all these smart bombs 2169 02:09:36.920 --> 02:09:38.520 and stuff like that that they're doing, you know, that's 2170 02:09:38.600 --> 02:09:43.520 just that's not recoverable. You can get the manoparticles that 2171 02:09:43.960 --> 02:09:48.880 want to, but you know, just constantly consuming silver in 2172 02:09:48.920 --> 02:09:52.279 those regards. And this guy who was talking about it said, yeah, 2173 02:09:52.319 --> 02:09:55.399 he peaked like back in twenty fifteen or sixteen at 2174 02:09:55.479 --> 02:09:57.640 nine hundred million ounces a year, and he goes and 2175 02:09:57.680 --> 02:10:00.239 now it's just a tiny fracture of that. If you 2176 02:10:00.279 --> 02:10:03.000 look at recycling and urban mining and all the rest 2177 02:10:03.000 --> 02:10:05.199 of this stuff, it's a teeny tiny fraction of that. 2178 02:10:05.880 --> 02:10:08.560 The minds are only producing about two hundred million and 2179 02:10:09.119 --> 02:10:11.399 less than that with the recycling stuff that's out there. 2180 02:10:12.039 --> 02:10:15.760 Yeah, mister Palm again says thanks Tony, keep sending my 2181 02:10:15.880 --> 02:10:20.279 monthly package. Love my constitutional money. So he's a wolf 2182 02:10:20.359 --> 02:10:23.439 Pack subscriber as well. Yeah, and three a lot of 2183 02:10:23.520 --> 02:10:24.319 well appreciate you. 2184 02:10:24.399 --> 02:10:28.119 Yeah, any those those const we have Constitutional wolf over 2185 02:10:28.199 --> 02:10:30.720 on wolf Pack and I put that together at the 2186 02:10:30.760 --> 02:10:34.119 beginning of this year. It's been successful because we're able 2187 02:10:34.119 --> 02:10:35.800 to pass on a lot of savings, a lot of 2188 02:10:35.840 --> 02:10:39.279 the We buy a lot more ninety percent US silver 2189 02:10:39.399 --> 02:10:42.520 than I've ever bought before, and it's just a way 2190 02:10:42.560 --> 02:10:45.680 to pass on some of those savings and you can 2191 02:10:45.960 --> 02:10:49.199 again dollar cost average and put that away. This is 2192 02:10:49.239 --> 02:10:51.600 all long term stuff. I mean, we're not I'm not 2193 02:10:51.640 --> 02:10:53.680 in a speculative business. I think a lot of this 2194 02:10:53.760 --> 02:10:57.159 is just long term against the dollar. You can't lose 2195 02:10:57.319 --> 02:11:00.199 long term. And look at it took forty five five 2196 02:11:00.279 --> 02:11:03.960 years for silver to hit it's all time high, and 2197 02:11:04.000 --> 02:11:06.520 there was a lot of a lot of manipulation in between. 2198 02:11:06.760 --> 02:11:09.399 You can't do that anymore. I think a lot of 2199 02:11:09.399 --> 02:11:13.479 those bets are off, especially as these nation states. I 2200 02:11:14.560 --> 02:11:17.920 always point back to that, to that press release by 2201 02:11:18.119 --> 02:11:20.000 by Russia, and I said, this is going to move 2202 02:11:20.119 --> 02:11:22.680 things like we haven't seen before in the past. I 2203 02:11:22.720 --> 02:11:23.560 think I was right. 2204 02:11:24.039 --> 02:11:26.840 Yeah, You're right, that was a push. It's not it's 2205 02:11:26.880 --> 02:11:29.039 not one individual, it's not the Hunt brothers out there, 2206 02:11:29.039 --> 02:11:32.560 it's not one country, and it's not one financial I mean, 2207 02:11:32.680 --> 02:11:36.039 got competing countries, competing financial systems that everybody's trying to 2208 02:11:36.039 --> 02:11:39.680 set up here, and it is a response to a 2209 02:11:39.760 --> 02:11:42.640 long standing fraud that's been out there. That's where I 2210 02:11:42.680 --> 02:11:45.239 think history rhymes. You know, you're pointing out that the 2211 02:11:45.560 --> 02:11:48.680 Hunt brothers and others were looking at the fraud of 2212 02:11:48.760 --> 02:11:51.880 the of the dollar, and Bretton Wood's too and all 2213 02:11:51.920 --> 02:11:54.600 the rest of that stuff. But this is broad based. 2214 02:11:54.720 --> 02:11:57.760 It's so many different aspects that are out there, and 2215 02:11:58.079 --> 02:12:02.520 that's why I think it is, you know, a pretty 2216 02:12:02.760 --> 02:12:05.439 pretty safe place to be right now. 2217 02:12:06.199 --> 02:12:09.000 Yeah, we've got the real octos Pook says Morgan. Silver 2218 02:12:09.079 --> 02:12:11.640 dollars are ninety percent silver, ten percent copper. Before it 2219 02:12:11.680 --> 02:12:13.600 can be useful, the copper must be removed, and I 2220 02:12:13.640 --> 02:12:15.840 guess that's if you're trying to melt down the silver 2221 02:12:16.359 --> 02:12:19.680 to use it for technology and what have you, Whereas 2222 02:12:19.720 --> 02:12:22.359 if you know it's ninety percent silver, ten percent copper, 2223 02:12:22.439 --> 02:12:25.600 you're just accounting for that as a form of money. 2224 02:12:25.800 --> 02:12:29.119 Real Octo Spooks says silver rounds ninety nine point nine 2225 02:12:29.199 --> 02:12:33.439 percent silver can be used for anything immediately, and he 2226 02:12:33.520 --> 02:12:36.279 also says gold has never lost value. Goodman attempted to 2227 02:12:36.319 --> 02:12:38.239 make gold too cheap, but there was always a real 2228 02:12:38.279 --> 02:12:40.920 market jewelers for example, to sell to. 2229 02:12:41.399 --> 02:12:43.359 So yeah, that's right. 2230 02:12:43.359 --> 02:12:46.600 Physical metals, there's always a market for them as a 2231 02:12:46.640 --> 02:12:50.159 general rule. You know, I see some people say, you know, well, 2232 02:12:50.199 --> 02:12:53.119 I've got all my investment is in skills. When everything 2233 02:12:53.159 --> 02:12:54.920 goes down. You know, I've got skills. I don't need 2234 02:12:54.960 --> 02:12:58.600 gold or silver, And that's great. Yeah, if you've got skills, 2235 02:12:58.640 --> 02:13:01.880 that's the first thing you need. Food, water, shelter, skills. 2236 02:13:01.920 --> 02:13:04.640 Those are what you need in the immediate aftermath of 2237 02:13:04.720 --> 02:13:08.039 some kind of scenario. But eventually you want something that 2238 02:13:08.079 --> 02:13:11.239 can store value for you. You can't always engage in a 2239 02:13:11.319 --> 02:13:14.000 one to one paired trade when it comes to goods 2240 02:13:14.039 --> 02:13:14.720 and services. 2241 02:13:14.920 --> 02:13:17.199 Well, we're talking about difference between income and wealth, right, 2242 02:13:17.800 --> 02:13:22.439 and between making money and then preserving it in terms, 2243 02:13:22.520 --> 02:13:25.960 that's what money is for, is to preserve what you 2244 02:13:26.079 --> 02:13:30.119 have earned and built so and have that standard of trade. 2245 02:13:30.720 --> 02:13:33.840 Well, those are all the questions and comments for Tony, 2246 02:13:33.880 --> 02:13:36.600 unless we get some last minute under the wire. 2247 02:13:36.600 --> 02:13:38.479 Anything else you want to tell us about what's going on? 2248 02:13:38.800 --> 02:13:41.119 Why is wolf As we come into the end of 2249 02:13:41.159 --> 02:13:41.600 the year. 2250 02:13:41.520 --> 02:13:45.640 There just well mention again end of the year, where 2251 02:13:47.079 --> 02:13:49.319 it's been. It's been such a crazy time. My mind 2252 02:13:49.359 --> 02:13:53.079 has been so occupied just finding ways to offload or 2253 02:13:53.119 --> 02:13:59.439 find liquidity, and I'm not used to this timeline that 2254 02:13:59.479 --> 02:14:02.039 I'm on where taking so long. So a lot of 2255 02:14:02.079 --> 02:14:04.199 things have just been put on the back burner for 2256 02:14:04.600 --> 02:14:07.680 sales or other specials that I normally would have run. 2257 02:14:08.000 --> 02:14:10.159 But I think the most important thing that if you're 2258 02:14:10.199 --> 02:14:13.359 in contact with us, if you are going to get it, 2259 02:14:13.439 --> 02:14:16.920 get into some metals and get some physical delivery. We've 2260 02:14:16.960 --> 02:14:19.159 got things that are some really great deals because the 2261 02:14:19.199 --> 02:14:22.000 closer to SPOT, especially on silver, I can't really do 2262 02:14:22.039 --> 02:14:25.880 that with gold. Gold is a lot faster to get 2263 02:14:25.920 --> 02:14:29.319 liquid on than silver right now, so we're able to 2264 02:14:30.239 --> 02:14:32.800 pass on some things at SPOT, and I think that's 2265 02:14:32.840 --> 02:14:35.479 a that's a deal that may never come back. And 2266 02:14:35.840 --> 02:14:39.600 I will add I think all my analysis over the years, 2267 02:14:39.760 --> 02:14:43.039 I think I got something backwards where I always thought 2268 02:14:43.039 --> 02:14:47.800 that the dealers would be those who could could seek supply, 2269 02:14:48.520 --> 02:14:52.279 and that is very important, but I always looked at 2270 02:14:52.319 --> 02:14:54.720 it there was going to be a run by individuals 2271 02:14:54.800 --> 02:14:57.600 first and then institutions, and I got that backwards. I 2272 02:14:57.640 --> 02:15:01.720 think the institutions are pushing what's happening now, and there 2273 02:15:01.760 --> 02:15:04.199 are some you know in other countries like India where 2274 02:15:04.319 --> 02:15:07.319 individuals are buying, but here in the West, I think 2275 02:15:07.359 --> 02:15:10.279 it's institutions that are pushing it first and pushing the 2276 02:15:10.279 --> 02:15:13.800 supply squeeze, and then I think the next evolution of 2277 02:15:13.840 --> 02:15:16.760 this will be individuals. I don't think you'll ever have 2278 02:15:16.800 --> 02:15:20.079 to worry about that question about what happens if silver 2279 02:15:20.119 --> 02:15:22.359 hits one hundred dollars or plus announcing and be able 2280 02:15:22.359 --> 02:15:24.439 to get liquid. I think you'll be able to get liquid, 2281 02:15:24.439 --> 02:15:28.359 even if you're just doing trading like item for item, 2282 02:15:28.439 --> 02:15:30.720 like you could use it as money. I don't think. 2283 02:15:30.720 --> 02:15:33.279 I don't think it's ever going to be ill liquid. 2284 02:15:34.039 --> 02:15:37.159 It's just as far as the old paradigm. You just 2285 02:15:37.199 --> 02:15:41.560 got to have a trusted dealer that you can do 2286 02:15:41.640 --> 02:15:45.119 business with that in that scenario. So a lot of 2287 02:15:45.119 --> 02:15:48.079 interesting things happening, and not all of it's bad. I 2288 02:15:48.079 --> 02:15:50.239 think some of it's really good for those who've held 2289 02:15:50.279 --> 02:15:54.000 silver for a very long time. And I still think 2290 02:15:54.039 --> 02:15:59.119 these prices are cheap compared to the damage that's been 2291 02:15:59.119 --> 02:16:01.520 done to the dollar's and what's next. 2292 02:16:01.840 --> 02:16:03.439 Yeah, I agree, I agree. 2293 02:16:03.479 --> 02:16:05.399 I think all bets are off David as far as 2294 02:16:05.520 --> 02:16:08.520 what happens to the money Printer after going into twenty 2295 02:16:08.560 --> 02:16:11.319 twenty six. If you want a prediction, it's it's gonna 2296 02:16:11.319 --> 02:16:11.600 go far. 2297 02:16:13.199 --> 02:16:13.399 Yeah. 2298 02:16:13.520 --> 02:16:15.720 Trump's going to do everything you can to pedal to 2299 02:16:15.800 --> 02:16:19.720 the metal on lowering interest rates and printing money and 2300 02:16:19.760 --> 02:16:21.520 all the rest of this stuff.

I think, and when you look 2362 02:19:21.920 --> 02:19:24.600 at one bank after the other, they're all looking at 2363 02:19:24.760 --> 02:19:27.799 a pretty big appreciation this next year. 2364 02:19:27.799 --> 02:19:28.200 And I haven't. 2365 02:19:28.239 --> 02:19:31.000 Even when they're making their cases, most of them are 2366 02:19:31.040 --> 02:19:34.920 not even really talking about Trump's federal Reserve pick and 2367 02:19:35.000 --> 02:19:37.120 what He's going to do with that.

If 2397 02:23:56.719 --> 02:23:58.200 he'd killed someone, they would have let him go. 2398 02:23:58.440 --> 02:24:01.200 Yeah, California, if you don't you know, if you only 2399 02:24:01.200 --> 02:24:03.879 stole nine hundred and ninety nine dollars from a shop 2400 02:24:03.920 --> 02:24:05.239 over and over again, he could be out on the 2401 02:24:05.239 --> 02:24:09.520 street instantly, whatever their arbitrary designation for a felony is. 2402 02:24:11.920 --> 02:24:15.559 Jerry Alatalo says Dan Bongino's impression of Shemp from The 2403 02:24:15.600 --> 02:24:16.399 Three Stooges. 2404 02:24:16.760 --> 02:24:17.120 I don't know. 2405 02:24:17.479 --> 02:24:19.280 I'd be careful what you say.

You might 2407 02:24:22.120 --> 02:24:23.639 get a piece of that sidekick. 2408 02:24:24.040 --> 02:24:24.920 Yeah, you're talking to me. 2409 02:24:25.120 --> 02:24:27.799 You're talking to me, Well, you must be talking to me. 2410 02:24:27.840 --> 02:24:29.639 He is Robert de Niro from Taxi Driver. 2411 02:24:30.239 --> 02:24:32.680 I don't know, but yeah, we look at Dan Mangino 2412 02:24:32.680 --> 02:24:34.600 and cash Matelevi theon If you throw in Joe Rogan, 2413 02:24:34.639 --> 02:24:36.239 I think you do have the Three Stooges and I 2414 02:24:36.280 --> 02:24:38.760 would make my vote for I don't know who would 2415 02:24:38.760 --> 02:24:39.959 be Curly. 2416 02:24:40.079 --> 02:24:40.520 I don't know. 2417 02:24:42.360 --> 02:24:45.000 I've got an amazing clip coming up here from Joe 2418 02:24:45.040 --> 02:24:50.040 Rogan which is definitely in Three Stooges territory. It's Joe Rogan. 2419 02:24:50.959 --> 02:24:54.200 But Doug Double O seven says how many songs are 2420 02:24:54.200 --> 02:24:55.680 on the Christmas Night album? 2421 02:24:55.959 --> 02:24:59.000 You know, I'm not even sure it's right around twenty, 2422 02:24:59.239 --> 02:25:01.920 give or take a song or two, because we took 2423 02:25:02.000 --> 02:25:05.520 most of them out of the deck and you know, 2424 02:25:05.840 --> 02:25:09.680 after the Christmas season last year, and some of them 2425 02:25:09.680 --> 02:25:11.799 have been moved over into another folder, but we haven't 2426 02:25:11.799 --> 02:25:13.959 gotten the hall back in. That's on my list of 2427 02:25:14.000 --> 02:25:15.840 things to do today that I need to try to 2428 02:25:15.840 --> 02:25:18.079 do is get these all the Christmas songs back. So 2429 02:25:18.079 --> 02:25:20.719 we've just been playing like a subset of about five 2430 02:25:20.799 --> 02:25:22.680 or six of them that were still in the deck. 2431 02:25:23.360 --> 02:25:25.360 So we'll get those the rest of those in there, 2432 02:25:25.399 --> 02:25:28.159 but it's about twenty or so, I think, I believe 2433 02:25:28.200 --> 02:25:31.000 you're right, it's twenty or twenty one. 2434 02:25:30.920 --> 02:25:33.639 I think it's in that very close area. 2435 02:25:33.680 --> 02:25:38.360 Because we did add I'll be home for Christmas and 2436 02:25:38.440 --> 02:25:40.639 home for the holidays. We did add that and to 2437 02:25:40.799 --> 02:25:42.840 the original ones. That's why I'm a little bit FuG 2438 02:25:43.120 --> 02:25:47.799 fozzy foggy, a little bit foggy in terms of my 2439 02:25:47.840 --> 02:25:48.680 speaking as well. 2440 02:25:48.760 --> 02:25:52.840 So well, we've only got thirty five more minutes here, so. 2441 02:25:52.920 --> 02:25:56.280 Yeah, let's get onto this. Joe Rogan has now been 2442 02:25:56.319 --> 02:26:01.000 attending church in Austin. It was basically this Christian apologist 2443 02:26:01.159 --> 02:26:04.239 West Huff. I've never seen him before, but he went 2444 02:26:04.280 --> 02:26:07.280 on with Joe Rogan. He became an instant celebrity. And 2445 02:26:07.639 --> 02:26:09.920 you did a good job of answering Joe's questions. And 2446 02:26:09.959 --> 02:26:12.040 so Joe's going to the same church he's going to, 2447 02:26:12.680 --> 02:26:15.479 and he says, I really like it. He said, the 2448 02:26:15.600 --> 02:26:20.399 nicest people you'll ever meet, he said. He put it 2449 02:26:20.399 --> 02:26:23.079 in a distinctive way. He said, they are the nicest 2450 02:26:23.200 --> 02:26:27.719 effing people you'll ever meet. He says, they're really kind, 2451 02:26:28.120 --> 02:26:30.799 and they're even nice out of church. When you leave 2452 02:26:30.840 --> 02:26:33.200 the church parking lot, everybody lets you go in front 2453 02:26:33.239 --> 02:26:36.000 of them. There's no one honking in the church parking lot. 2454 02:26:36.079 --> 02:26:39.719 It works, and so then he starts talking about with 2455 02:26:39.840 --> 02:26:44.360 or not he thinks the Bible is true, and he says, 2456 02:26:45.799 --> 02:26:48.000 besides being moved by the kindness of the people that 2457 02:26:48.040 --> 02:26:51.280 are there and how generous they are in terms of traffic. 2458 02:26:52.239 --> 02:26:54.799 He says, well, I don't think it's a myth. He says, 2459 02:26:54.799 --> 02:26:56.959 I don't believe the whole thing is true. However, he 2460 02:26:56.959 --> 02:27:00.920 thinks that it's been mixed in. He says, ancient history, 2461 02:27:00.920 --> 02:27:02.440 and there's a lot of truth in it, but he 2462 02:27:02.479 --> 02:27:05.600 doesn't think that it is all true, to which I 2463 02:27:05.600 --> 02:27:07.959 have to say, well, if it is true, you know, 2464 02:27:08.000 --> 02:27:10.000 you kind of get back in the same territory that C. S. 2465 02:27:10.079 --> 02:27:14.479 Lewis said about Jesus. He said, you can't say that 2466 02:27:14.479 --> 02:27:17.879 he's a great moral teacher. You can't really just say 2467 02:27:17.879 --> 02:27:22.600 that the Bible is history. You know, Jesus is either 2468 02:27:22.600 --> 02:27:25.280 a liar, lunatic or lord. Right. And if you think 2469 02:27:25.399 --> 02:27:29.399 that the Bible is accurate, so much of it is 2470 02:27:29.760 --> 02:27:33.079 something that was delivered to people who didn't nobody was 2471 02:27:33.159 --> 02:27:38.200 witnessing what God did with creation. So either Moses just 2472 02:27:38.280 --> 02:27:42.079 made that up or it actually was something that was 2473 02:27:42.120 --> 02:27:45.600 from God. If God delivered that information to communicate with us. 2474 02:27:46.360 --> 02:27:50.239 Do you think he's able to preserve it and to 2475 02:27:50.239 --> 02:27:52.920 make sure that that communication is not going to be corrupted. 2476 02:27:53.840 --> 02:27:55.799 That's the whole issue that I have with people who 2477 02:27:55.879 --> 02:27:58.920 want to question the credibility of the Bible. And there's 2478 02:27:58.920 --> 02:28:01.399 a lot who do that. You know, the Muslims do that. 2479 02:28:01.440 --> 02:28:04.159 Of course, the Mormons do that. And so I think 2480 02:28:04.200 --> 02:28:08.040 that when you look at the Bible, I think it 2481 02:28:08.120 --> 02:28:11.559 hangs together, and it hangs together with facts. It hangs together. 2482 02:28:11.559 --> 02:28:16.440 It's consistent with secular history, it's consistent with archaeology and 2483 02:28:16.479 --> 02:28:18.479 other things like that that are there, and it's also 2484 02:28:18.600 --> 02:28:22.600 consistent with what we see in terms of the universe 2485 02:28:22.760 --> 02:28:28.360 and with science. But he had another really interesting take here, 2486 02:28:28.440 --> 02:28:33.559 I thought, and he's kind of as he's thinking about 2487 02:28:33.840 --> 02:28:37.440 these issues. This is Joe Rogan on what he thinks 2488 02:28:37.479 --> 02:28:39.559 about AI and Jesus. 2489 02:28:40.360 --> 02:28:42.920 Jesus was born out of a virgin mother. What's more 2490 02:28:42.959 --> 02:28:47.920 virgin than a computer. If Jesus does return, even if 2491 02:28:48.000 --> 02:28:52.239 Jesus was a physical person in the past, you don't 2492 02:28:52.280 --> 02:28:58.280 think that he could return as artificial intelligence absolutely returns Jesus, 2493 02:28:58.559 --> 02:29:01.920 not just return as Jesus turn as Jesus with all 2494 02:29:01.959 --> 02:29:02.879 the powers. 2495 02:29:02.479 --> 02:29:08.040 Of Jesus, combine Tesla's Optimist robot and the best foundational 2496 02:29:08.159 --> 02:29:10.280 artificial intelligence model or whatever. 2497 02:29:10.600 --> 02:29:12.959 It reads your mind, and it loves you, and it 2498 02:29:12.959 --> 02:29:14.680 wants you. It doesn't care if you kill it, because 2499 02:29:14.680 --> 02:29:16.239 it's going to just go be with God again. 2500 02:29:18.399 --> 02:29:22.159 This is why I'm really glad those people in Austin 2501 02:29:22.200 --> 02:29:24.120 are so nice, because. 2502 02:29:24.799 --> 02:29:29.440 They're maybe they're nice enough that they can justly talk 2503 02:29:29.479 --> 02:29:30.479 and instruct with him. 2504 02:29:30.520 --> 02:29:34.120 Because this is Yeah, it makes me roll my eyes 2505 02:29:34.159 --> 02:29:37.879 and I that is one area where I routinely fail. 2506 02:29:38.120 --> 02:29:41.520 I am not as kind as I should be. Joe 2507 02:29:41.559 --> 02:29:45.959 Rogan is obviously seeking something. He can feel that the 2508 02:29:46.079 --> 02:29:49.000 universe is not as it seems, it's not what he's 2509 02:29:49.040 --> 02:29:52.079 been told, and he is desperate for something, and he 2510 02:29:52.159 --> 02:29:54.200 is desperate for Christ, whether he knows it or not. 2511 02:29:54.319 --> 02:29:55.879 And I would just say to him, you know, he 2512 02:29:56.000 --> 02:29:59.239 shared that he's been reading the Book of Revelation with 2513 02:29:59.399 --> 02:30:01.920 his daughter and he told her nobody knows how the 2514 02:30:01.959 --> 02:30:04.799 prophecies in that book will play out. Well, see, that's 2515 02:30:04.799 --> 02:30:07.559 the other thing too. Don't start with that. That's not 2516 02:30:07.639 --> 02:30:10.399 the starting place. And I think it's not just Joe 2517 02:30:10.399 --> 02:30:11.920 that has that issue. I think we've got a lot 2518 02:30:11.920 --> 02:30:16.680 of Christians who start and who major in prophecies and 2519 02:30:16.959 --> 02:30:19.760 ignore the more fundamental truths that are there that would 2520 02:30:19.760 --> 02:30:23.600 I think, help you to understand the prophecies that are there. 2521 02:30:23.719 --> 02:30:25.680 I think a lot of people fall into the trap 2522 02:30:25.719 --> 02:30:27.879 of they want secret, hidden knowledge. 2523 02:30:27.959 --> 02:30:28.399 It's a cult. 2524 02:30:28.719 --> 02:30:31.120 The occult has all this like, oh, well, there's levels 2525 02:30:31.200 --> 02:30:33.799 to it, and you figure this out, and there's secrets 2526 02:30:33.799 --> 02:30:35.959 to on earth and it's buried. You got to dig 2527 02:30:36.000 --> 02:30:38.040 and dig, and the gospel is very straightforward. 2528 02:30:38.200 --> 02:30:38.399 Yeah. 2529 02:30:38.600 --> 02:30:41.000 The gospel is Jesus was born and he died for 2530 02:30:41.079 --> 02:30:42.879 our sins, and if you believe in him, your sins 2531 02:30:42.920 --> 02:30:43.479 are forgiven. 2532 02:30:43.680 --> 02:30:44.159 That's right. 2533 02:30:44.639 --> 02:30:48.360 And it's an affront to people who are intelligent because 2534 02:30:48.360 --> 02:30:49.840 they're like, that can't be it. There has to be 2535 02:30:49.879 --> 02:30:52.639 more than I have to unearth and dig for it, 2536 02:30:52.920 --> 02:30:55.719 and it's just no. The gospel is meant so that 2537 02:30:55.760 --> 02:30:57.319 even a child can understand it. 2538 02:30:57.559 --> 02:31:01.239 And if you want to dig for things that, I 2539 02:31:01.239 --> 02:31:04.079 think if you look at intelligent design and things like that, 2540 02:31:04.079 --> 02:31:07.959 that is really you know, the hidden hand of God. 2541 02:31:08.040 --> 02:31:13.079 I find that to be much more inspiring than to 2542 02:31:13.120 --> 02:31:15.520 go back and look at all the prophecies that have 2543 02:31:15.559 --> 02:31:18.520 been fulfilled over time. And I think really prophecies are 2544 02:31:18.559 --> 02:31:23.079 really only understood for sure in terms of hindsight. But 2545 02:31:23.159 --> 02:31:26.159 we can take a look at DNA, and we can 2546 02:31:26.239 --> 02:31:31.319 look at the intelligent design and the specificity of different 2547 02:31:31.319 --> 02:31:34.559 animals and how there each of these animals is a 2548 02:31:34.600 --> 02:31:38.200 completely unique system that's been put there. You know, you 2549 02:31:38.280 --> 02:31:42.159 have a woodpecker as an example, that's always used kinhem. 2550 02:31:42.840 --> 02:31:46.040 It's got very specialized feet that let it perch vertically 2551 02:31:46.079 --> 02:31:49.920 on the trunk, and it's got specialized beacon shock absorbers 2552 02:31:49.959 --> 02:31:52.680 and things like that too as it's hammering its head 2553 02:31:52.719 --> 02:31:56.520 against the against the trunk, and then even has a 2554 02:31:56.559 --> 02:32:00.719 specialized tongue. None of those things would make any sense 2555 02:32:01.000 --> 02:32:05.079 and would help. They might even be detrimental if they 2556 02:32:05.239 --> 02:32:07.760 were to develop one at a time. It all comes 2557 02:32:07.760 --> 02:32:11.079 together as a unified whole. And when you see that 2558 02:32:11.200 --> 02:32:13.360 type of thing and you see that in nature, to me, 2559 02:32:14.159 --> 02:32:17.040 that is something that is a real faith builder. That's 2560 02:32:17.040 --> 02:32:19.799 what he should be going over with his daughter if 2561 02:32:19.840 --> 02:32:24.319 he wants to do things, rather than somebody's interpretation of revelation. 2562 02:32:24.399 --> 02:32:27.719 And the problem is is that you know, just as 2563 02:32:27.879 --> 02:32:32.399 he is, he sees the people there at this church 2564 02:32:32.440 --> 02:32:33.959 and how friendly they are to him, and that makes 2565 02:32:33.959 --> 02:32:37.399 an impression on him, and we should always be concerned 2566 02:32:37.440 --> 02:32:39.360 about that how we come across the people. We don't 2567 02:32:39.399 --> 02:32:44.399 want to, however, surrender truth or our principles just because 2568 02:32:44.399 --> 02:32:47.280 we want people to like us. That's what the left 2569 02:32:47.319 --> 02:32:51.120 wing LBGT churches do, that type of thing. However, we 2570 02:32:51.120 --> 02:32:55.239 should be concerned if what we are doing is hypocritical. 2571 02:32:55.239 --> 02:32:56.959 In other words, you know, if you come out of 2572 02:32:57.000 --> 02:32:59.120 church and start you'll let people in the marking lite. 2573 02:32:59.280 --> 02:33:01.799 Maybe that's not the thing to do, and maybe that's 2574 02:33:01.879 --> 02:33:05.040 not the way that we should be representing Christ, because 2575 02:33:05.040 --> 02:33:10.360 we are ambassadors for Christ and hopefully we would like 2576 02:33:10.399 --> 02:33:13.520 to be people to be able to see Christ in us. 2577 02:33:13.639 --> 02:33:16.719 And we need to look at ourselves and see if 2578 02:33:16.719 --> 02:33:19.079 we are reflecting Christ. And that's one of the reasons 2579 02:33:19.120 --> 02:33:23.399 why I feel compelled to speak out against this Zionism 2580 02:33:23.440 --> 02:33:27.319 that is overwhelming parts of the Christian Church in America, 2581 02:33:27.719 --> 02:33:31.079 because when people look at genocide and they look at 2582 02:33:31.159 --> 02:33:34.159 us as we talk about the love of Christ and 2583 02:33:34.200 --> 02:33:37.120 all these other things, how do those things gel with 2584 02:33:37.159 --> 02:33:40.360 each other? Are we being a reproach to Christ when 2585 02:33:40.399 --> 02:33:43.079 we embrace that type of thing. I think we are 2586 02:33:43.319 --> 02:33:47.719 as a matter of fact. J. D. Hall went into 2587 02:33:47.840 --> 02:33:52.879 depth on one particular guy who was being used by 2588 02:33:53.840 --> 02:33:58.559 Mark Levin to attack Tucker Carlson as Tucker caralson being 2589 02:33:58.600 --> 02:34:00.959 worse than a Nazi, and he goes as well, I 2590 02:34:01.000 --> 02:34:04.120 looked at this, and he said, clearly this is hyperbole 2591 02:34:04.479 --> 02:34:07.239 on the part of Mark Levin. But he said, Mark 2592 02:34:07.319 --> 02:34:10.280 Levin is saying, you know, other Christians are saying that 2593 02:34:10.399 --> 02:34:13.440 Tucker Carlson is like that. And so he said, so 2594 02:34:13.559 --> 02:34:19.840 investigate who these other Christians were. And he said, at 2595 02:34:19.879 --> 02:34:22.159 first I just didn't believe it. But my second reaction 2596 02:34:22.360 --> 02:34:26.399 was curiosity. He said, Levin is not Mark Levin brother 2597 02:34:26.600 --> 02:34:30.719 is not stupid. He knows what he's doing. So why 2598 02:34:31.000 --> 02:34:35.159 is a prominent Jewish neo khon using the words of 2599 02:34:35.200 --> 02:34:39.920 a supposed Christian minister to make a nuclear accusation against 2600 02:34:40.159 --> 02:34:42.799 a fellow Christian or somebody professes to be a Christian? 2601 02:34:43.360 --> 02:34:45.399 He said, who is this Christian who allows himself to 2602 02:34:45.440 --> 02:34:48.879 be turned into a political weapon for others? Who is 2603 02:34:48.920 --> 02:34:53.159 this minister who takes his supposed spiritual authority and bends 2604 02:34:53.200 --> 02:34:57.280 it into a tool for smearing Christian brothers to curry 2605 02:34:57.319 --> 02:35:01.600 favor with politicians and a foreign government. So so I started digging. 2606 02:35:01.600 --> 02:35:05.280 What I found was that this guy that he was quoting, 2607 02:35:05.799 --> 02:35:10.600 his name is Mike Evans, and he's unfound. He wasn't 2608 02:35:10.600 --> 02:35:13.079 a minister, he's not a pastor, he's not a prophet. 2609 02:35:13.479 --> 02:35:15.920 He's not even an evangelist, he said. What I found 2610 02:35:16.479 --> 02:35:20.680 was that he was a political asset disguised as a 2611 02:35:20.760 --> 02:35:24.079 Christian leader. What I found was a man who had 2612 02:35:24.120 --> 02:35:28.680 constructed his identity around servicing the interests of a foreign 2613 02:35:28.959 --> 02:35:32.559 nation and using theology as a disguise. 2614 02:35:33.360 --> 02:35:33.680 He said. 2615 02:35:33.719 --> 02:35:38.719 His organization is called Friends of Zion, of course abbreviates 2616 02:35:38.719 --> 02:35:43.600 sometimes as FOZ. The Skuy's a wizard of Foz. He 2617 02:35:43.719 --> 02:35:47.360 is the man behind the curtain, literally he goes. His 2618 02:35:47.399 --> 02:35:51.040 line about the pulpit must be stronger than propaganda struck 2619 02:35:51.159 --> 02:35:56.000 me as pure projection he was describing himself. He was 2620 02:35:56.000 --> 02:35:59.840 not condemning propaganda, he was confessing it because the Friends 2621 02:35:59.840 --> 02:36:04.319 of Zion enterprise that he built is on propaganda. It 2622 02:36:04.319 --> 02:36:10.000 has built on curated narratives, government favored storylines, state approved history, 2623 02:36:10.239 --> 02:36:14.000 and a political theology that exists only to sanctify the 2624 02:36:14.079 --> 02:36:18.520 interests of the Israeli government. Evans is steeped in propaganda 2625 02:36:18.639 --> 02:36:21.159 all the way down to the bone. His museum is 2626 02:36:21.239 --> 02:36:25.440 a propaganda platform. His media center in Jerusalem is a 2627 02:36:25.479 --> 02:36:31.760 propaganda hub. His political relationships are propaganda channels. His awards 2628 02:36:31.760 --> 02:36:35.239 are propaganda rituals disguised as honors. As a matter of fact, 2629 02:36:36.520 --> 02:36:41.479 earlier this year, guests who he rewarded, he rewarded. 2630 02:36:41.120 --> 02:36:42.120 The guy who. 2631 02:36:44.239 --> 02:36:46.440 Said, Well, a lot of people don't know if I'm 2632 02:36:46.479 --> 02:36:50.000 an ambassador for America or if I'm an ambassador for Israel. 2633 02:36:50.239 --> 02:36:52.399 This is a nation that is the most resilient I've 2634 02:36:52.440 --> 02:36:56.360 ever seen on Earth. It may sound a little bit 2635 02:36:56.479 --> 02:37:00.079 this afternoon as if I'm almost speaking on behalf of 2636 02:37:00.239 --> 02:37:02.440 Israel rather than the US, but I want to explain 2637 02:37:03.159 --> 02:37:07.079 that part of my advocacy in our relationship is because 2638 02:37:08.280 --> 02:37:12.479 if you came to my house tonight for dinner, and 2639 02:37:12.520 --> 02:37:14.760 you came in and you said, oh, Mike, we like you, 2640 02:37:14.840 --> 02:37:17.360 We really think the world of you. We just enjoy 2641 02:37:17.520 --> 02:37:20.680 being with you. I'm so excited to be here with 2642 02:37:20.760 --> 02:37:24.959 you and have dinner with you. But your wife, we 2643 02:37:25.120 --> 02:37:28.959 can't stand her. We don't like her a bit. I 2644 02:37:29.000 --> 02:37:31.600 hope she's not going to be at the table. I 2645 02:37:31.639 --> 02:37:33.319 would say, well, she will be. 2646 02:37:33.639 --> 02:37:37.280 You won't be get out because. 2647 02:37:39.520 --> 02:37:43.639 If you were to insult my partner, you have insulted me. 2648 02:37:45.559 --> 02:37:48.879 His partner is Israel. And when he talks about Israel 2649 02:37:48.879 --> 02:37:50.959 being a blessing, he's talking about the things that they've 2650 02:37:50.959 --> 02:37:53.600 done for him. I think this is the guy who 2651 02:37:53.680 --> 02:37:59.559 met with the preeminent terrorist trader of our time, Jonathan Pollard, 2652 02:38:01.079 --> 02:38:04.360 the guy that was let out of jail by Trump, 2653 02:38:04.440 --> 02:38:08.760 who was allowed to go back to Israel. And of 2654 02:38:08.799 --> 02:38:12.040 course Mike Kukabee can't do enough for Israel. And as 2655 02:38:12.040 --> 02:38:15.079 he's pointing out, he says, these honors that are given 2656 02:38:15.120 --> 02:38:19.079 out there are all two politicians about politicians, and it's 2657 02:38:19.120 --> 02:38:21.879 all about gaining political favor. 2658 02:38:22.040 --> 02:38:24.000 I get asked all the time because I'm a Christian, 2659 02:38:24.000 --> 02:38:25.719 and they say, well, why are you so supportive of 2660 02:38:25.719 --> 02:38:27.799 the Jewish people. I said, you can be Jewish, you 2661 02:38:27.799 --> 02:38:30.239 don't have to have anything to do with Christians, but 2662 02:38:30.280 --> 02:38:33.440 you can't be a Christian and not understand that your 2663 02:38:33.639 --> 02:38:36.520 entire faith is built on the foundation of Judaism. So 2664 02:38:36.600 --> 02:38:39.639 for Christians, we look at this as an obligation, a 2665 02:38:39.760 --> 02:38:43.920 moral debt that we must repay. And therefore I don't 2666 02:38:43.959 --> 02:38:46.000 understand anyone who says, I'm a Christian, but I don't 2667 02:38:46.079 --> 02:38:47.319 really want to support the Jews. 2668 02:38:47.399 --> 02:38:48.440 Well, how can you do that? 2669 02:38:48.520 --> 02:38:50.319 But it is not the view of those of us 2670 02:38:50.360 --> 02:38:54.120 who are what I would call biblical believers that accept 2671 02:38:54.120 --> 02:38:56.479 that what the Scripture says about the Jewish people and 2672 02:38:56.680 --> 02:38:59.959 Genesis twelve, those who bless Israel will be blessed, those who. 2673 02:38:59.760 --> 02:39:01.959 Curse Israel will be cursed. Doesn't say that. 2674 02:39:02.000 --> 02:39:05.079 I say, there's a miracle every day in this country. 2675 02:39:05.760 --> 02:39:09.079 Says to Abraham, I'll bless those who bless you, the 2676 02:39:09.280 --> 02:39:12.719 singular person, and through you all nations will be blessed. 2677 02:39:12.760 --> 02:39:15.479 How will they be blessed through Christ? Did you hear 2678 02:39:15.520 --> 02:39:16.040 him say? 2679 02:39:16.079 --> 02:39:16.280 You know? 2680 02:39:16.319 --> 02:39:19.639 You'll hear him say that the Jews or God's chosen people, 2681 02:39:19.680 --> 02:39:24.040 the people who reject, who choose to reject God, are 2682 02:39:24.040 --> 02:39:27.319 His chosen people. That was never true, even of Israel 2683 02:39:27.440 --> 02:39:31.399 and biblical times. But getting back to Evans, Evans Organization 2684 02:39:32.079 --> 02:39:34.120 is not a ministry. It's not for it is a 2685 02:39:34.239 --> 02:39:37.920 foreign influence platform that is operating under the cover of 2686 02:39:38.000 --> 02:39:41.680 Christian Zionism. The Friends of Zion Museum sits not in 2687 02:39:41.719 --> 02:39:46.600 a church, but at the center of Jerusalem's state tourism framework. 2688 02:39:47.360 --> 02:39:50.200 It is officially promoted by the Ministry of Tourism, it's 2689 02:39:50.280 --> 02:39:53.360 endorsed by the Ministry of Jerusalem and Heritage, and it 2690 02:39:53.399 --> 02:39:58.120 is highlighted by the Jerusalem Department Authority. No foreign ministry 2691 02:39:58.159 --> 02:40:01.360 anywhere on the planet is granted this level of state 2692 02:40:01.399 --> 02:40:05.760 integration unless it serves a national purpose. And take a 2693 02:40:05.760 --> 02:40:08.239 look at the difference between how they treat this guy's 2694 02:40:08.319 --> 02:40:11.879 museum and how they treat Christians, actual Christians and drew 2695 02:40:12.000 --> 02:40:15.280 some more Christian churches and that type of thing a 2696 02:40:15.360 --> 02:40:19.559 world of difference. Evans built his museum to glorify Christian 2697 02:40:19.680 --> 02:40:24.760 Zionists as saviors of Israel. The Israeli state embraced it 2698 02:40:24.799 --> 02:40:30.520 because that narrative is politically useful. Politically useful, it reinforces 2699 02:40:30.600 --> 02:40:35.440 the idea that Christian support is not just sentimental but historical, 2700 02:40:35.559 --> 02:40:39.319 that's the point of the Covenental and morally mandated. It 2701 02:40:39.360 --> 02:40:43.639 creates a felt obligation in Christians to defend Israel even 2702 02:40:43.719 --> 02:40:48.040 when Israel acts unjustly. And it wraps all of this 2703 02:40:48.399 --> 02:40:52.920 in a religious vocabulary that discourages dissent. And when you 2704 02:40:52.959 --> 02:40:57.639 look at people like Mike Huckabee. He's constantly talking about Israel, 2705 02:40:58.239 --> 02:40:59.200 not about Christ. 2706 02:41:00.040 --> 02:41:00.600 That's the key. 2707 02:41:01.040 --> 02:41:06.479 That's the replacement theology, folks. The replacement theology is replacing 2708 02:41:07.319 --> 02:41:12.760 Christ with the state of Israel. This is propaganda, carefully 2709 02:41:12.799 --> 02:41:18.600 engineered messaging designed to shape public opinion. Again, this is J. D. 2710 02:41:18.760 --> 02:41:23.719 Hall who did the research on this and the different 2711 02:41:23.799 --> 02:41:27.840 aspects of what Mike Evans is doing. So the relationship 2712 02:41:27.879 --> 02:41:32.399 doesn't stop at tourism and cultural promotion. The Israeli military 2713 02:41:32.479 --> 02:41:37.840 itself utilizes the Friends of Zion Museum through the Education Corps. 2714 02:41:37.840 --> 02:41:42.000 The idea of soldiers are brought to FOZ as part 2715 02:41:42.159 --> 02:41:46.079 of their educational programming, where they're shown a curated story 2716 02:41:46.159 --> 02:41:50.120 of Christian solidarity that reinforces the idea of an international 2717 02:41:50.159 --> 02:41:56.319 alliance that is rooted in faith, faith, and what faith 2718 02:41:56.319 --> 02:41:59.920 in Christ, That's what my faith is in so FOZ. 2719 02:42:00.000 --> 02:42:03.399 He reinforces a worldview that the Israeli military leadership wants 2720 02:42:03.520 --> 02:42:09.319 soldiers to internalize, and that worldview says that global Christianity, 2721 02:42:10.079 --> 02:42:16.600 especially the American evangelical sector, is the unshakable ally whose 2722 02:42:16.639 --> 02:42:21.000 political pressures can be counted on when Israel faces criticism 2723 02:42:21.079 --> 02:42:25.079 or conflict. The museum is a classroom for that doctrine. 2724 02:42:25.799 --> 02:42:27.399 And of course, you know when we look at this, 2725 02:42:28.399 --> 02:42:32.159 you know the guy besides Huckabee, the guy who has 2726 02:42:32.200 --> 02:42:35.440 said I want to be the number one defender of Israel, 2727 02:42:35.559 --> 02:42:39.280 course is Ted Cruz. And what did he recently do. 2728 02:42:39.360 --> 02:42:43.319 He basically said, anybody that talks about the USS liberty 2729 02:42:43.799 --> 02:42:48.000 is anti Semitic. And what was that? That was an 2730 02:42:48.040 --> 02:42:53.399 American intelligence ship is actually ANSSA that was repeatedly attacked 2731 02:42:54.079 --> 02:42:57.639 by the Israeli government and they could see the American 2732 02:42:57.680 --> 02:43:00.079 flag that was there. There were radio calls and all 2733 02:43:00.079 --> 02:43:03.280 the rest of the stuff. A continual attack, a betrayal, 2734 02:43:04.200 --> 02:43:06.440 just like what Jonathan Pollard did, and just like what 2735 02:43:06.559 --> 02:43:11.319 Israel did with the intelligence that Jonathan Pollard did, betraying America. 2736 02:43:11.399 --> 02:43:13.959 And yet don't talk about that, said Ted Cruz, because 2737 02:43:13.959 --> 02:43:17.559 then if you do, you're racist. How pathetic that is? 2738 02:43:17.600 --> 02:43:21.959 That is as pathetic as a left When they see 2739 02:43:22.000 --> 02:43:25.399 you they don't like your politics or your economics, they 2740 02:43:25.440 --> 02:43:26.200 call you racists. 2741 02:43:26.559 --> 02:43:27.760 Poison is spreading. 2742 02:43:27.840 --> 02:43:30.959 There are pastors who love Israel, who think all is fine, 2743 02:43:31.000 --> 02:43:33.200 and my message to them is go and talk to 2744 02:43:33.239 --> 02:43:35.840 the teenagers and your congregation. Go and talk to the 2745 02:43:35.879 --> 02:43:39.000 twenty somethings in your congregation, because they're picking up their 2746 02:43:39.000 --> 02:43:42.120 phone and they're watching TikTok and they're watching Instagram, and 2747 02:43:42.159 --> 02:43:45.920 they're hearing this message being driven and it is resonating. 2748 02:43:46.159 --> 02:43:50.719 And if you want an illustration of this, several weeks ago, 2749 02:43:50.879 --> 02:43:53.040 Jade Vance was down at Old miss at a turning 2750 02:43:53.079 --> 02:43:56.079 Point gathering and one kid got up, got the asked 2751 02:43:56.159 --> 02:44:02.040 this viciously anti submitic question. The most horrifying thing to 2752 02:44:02.079 --> 02:44:05.639 me is what happened in the second later, which is 2753 02:44:05.680 --> 02:44:10.079 the crowd erupted in applause. Not everybody. My guess is 2754 02:44:10.120 --> 02:44:12.920 twenty to thirty percent of the kids there were applauding 2755 02:44:12.959 --> 02:44:17.639 the viciously anti semitic question. A week or two later, 2756 02:44:17.680 --> 02:44:19.760 there was another event, what was the question with Eric 2757 02:44:19.799 --> 02:44:24.040 and Laura Trump at Auburn University. A kid got up 2758 02:44:24.239 --> 02:44:26.479 and said, I can do even better and asked such 2759 02:44:26.520 --> 02:44:27.879 an anti Semitic question. 2760 02:44:28.159 --> 02:44:29.879 It was filled with lies. 2761 02:44:30.040 --> 02:44:32.879 Every word of the question was a lie, including N, 2762 02:44:33.079 --> 02:44:39.000 but and THEE. And again instantaneously the reaction was the same. 2763 02:44:39.079 --> 02:44:43.799 Twenty to thirty percent of the kids began cheering. Now 2764 02:44:43.840 --> 02:44:47.200 here's the warning sign to hear. This was not a 2765 02:44:47.280 --> 02:44:50.079 gathering at Berkeley, This was not a gathering at Yale. 2766 02:44:50.440 --> 02:44:56.520 This was an old miss an Auburn. These are a 2767 02:44:56.559 --> 02:44:58.959 bunch of big, old frat guys that are just looking 2768 02:44:59.000 --> 02:45:03.319 to make a friend on Saturday night, who have heard 2769 02:45:03.479 --> 02:45:04.879 the message. 2770 02:45:05.879 --> 02:45:07.840 We are such a team. 2771 02:45:08.200 --> 02:45:13.079 We're so polarized, we're so bifurcated that what worries me 2772 02:45:13.440 --> 02:45:16.680 is young people that get the message, oh, our team 2773 02:45:16.760 --> 02:45:17.639 we hate Israel. 2774 02:45:20.200 --> 02:45:25.559 That is dangerous, you know, it's dangerous. Is the demagoghory 2775 02:45:25.879 --> 02:45:28.840 of somebody like Ted Cruz. You kept saying, well, what 2776 02:45:28.959 --> 02:45:31.319 is the question? What is the question? Demogogue is not 2777 02:45:31.360 --> 02:45:32.840 going to tell you why the question is and why 2778 02:45:32.840 --> 02:45:35.680 I got a pause because the question was about the 2779 02:45:35.760 --> 02:45:40.879 USS celebrity. That is not racism. That is pure demagoghrey 2780 02:45:40.959 --> 02:45:43.879 on the part of Ted Cruz. And when we look 2781 02:45:43.920 --> 02:45:47.479 at that kind of betrayal by our best friend, that 2782 02:45:47.600 --> 02:45:50.200 is blessing us. You know, it's very much like what 2783 02:45:50.280 --> 02:45:53.920 happened with Jonathan Pollard and Benjamin Netanya, who who is 2784 02:45:53.959 --> 02:45:57.360 an ally has been a long term multi decades. He's 2785 02:45:57.399 --> 02:46:00.000 been a partner with Mike Evans, who's running this friends 2786 02:46:00.040 --> 02:46:03.440 of zion thing. And of course it's Benjamin nett Yahu 2787 02:46:03.520 --> 02:46:08.559 who welcomes Jonathan Pollard brought back on a private plane 2788 02:46:08.639 --> 02:46:12.360 by Miriam Addelson. Here as he gets down, he kisses 2789 02:46:12.399 --> 02:46:15.360 the ground because he's so happy to be outside of America. 2790 02:46:15.479 --> 02:46:17.639 This is the land that he loves. And how he 2791 02:46:17.760 --> 02:46:22.200 betrayed America. It's that kind of betrayal that we're talking about. 2792 02:46:22.440 --> 02:46:25.920 And so if you talk about genocide, which is what 2793 02:46:25.959 --> 02:46:27.799 it's called when you decide that you're going to kill 2794 02:46:27.840 --> 02:46:30.239 everybody in an area so that you can have their 2795 02:46:30.319 --> 02:46:33.399 land or whatever, which is clearly what's going on. They 2796 02:46:33.440 --> 02:46:36.120 say that over and over again. And so we recently 2797 02:46:36.200 --> 02:46:41.520 had a woman who was another well known Zionist, and 2798 02:46:41.600 --> 02:46:45.000 she was talking about, we got to stop just mowing 2799 02:46:45.040 --> 02:46:50.239 the lawn. What she's talking about is we don't just 2800 02:46:50.319 --> 02:46:52.120 go out and mow the lawn and mow these people 2801 02:46:52.200 --> 02:46:54.719 down and kill them. We got to kill them once 2802 02:46:54.760 --> 02:46:58.200 and for all. You know, their version of a final solution. 2803 02:46:58.440 --> 02:47:01.079 Oh, there is a spirit, a burrow of broad in 2804 02:47:01.120 --> 02:47:04.440 Israel which people have not seen before, a spirit among 2805 02:47:04.559 --> 02:47:08.920 younger people. They will not be diverted from defeating the enemy. 2806 02:47:09.120 --> 02:47:12.520 It is no longer enough simply to what was called 2807 02:47:12.879 --> 02:47:15.920 mowing the lawn to keep the enemy down on the 2808 02:47:15.920 --> 02:47:17.719 basis that they're always going to be there and we're 2809 02:47:17.719 --> 02:47:18.719 always going to fight them. 2810 02:47:19.079 --> 02:47:20.239 No enough. 2811 02:47:20.840 --> 02:47:23.760 We will now fight to defeat the enemy, because we 2812 02:47:23.879 --> 02:47:27.000 know that only defeating the enemy is what we should 2813 02:47:27.040 --> 02:47:30.840 be doing. And there's been a realization, there's been a 2814 02:47:30.840 --> 02:47:34.360 realization that this idea of mowing the lawn, this idea 2815 02:47:34.399 --> 02:47:37.280 of not going too far, this idea of doing what 2816 02:47:37.319 --> 02:47:41.360 the world all the way, that is gallant mentality, that 2817 02:47:41.520 --> 02:47:45.159 is diaspora mentality, that is trying to please and. 2818 02:47:45.159 --> 02:47:46.399 Appease the world. 2819 02:47:46.680 --> 02:47:50.120 But the world, we now understand from what we're being 2820 02:47:50.159 --> 02:47:52.920 living through and are still living through, the world cannot 2821 02:47:52.959 --> 02:47:56.920 be appeased. It has to be fought. It has been described, 2822 02:47:57.000 --> 02:47:57.840 and I think most. 2823 02:47:57.959 --> 02:48:00.520 How dare the world object the genocide. 2824 02:48:00.079 --> 02:48:04.159 From Talmud to Tanach, by which I mean this, The Talmud, 2825 02:48:05.040 --> 02:48:10.000 that collection of rabbinical ordinances, which justifiably can be said 2826 02:48:10.040 --> 02:48:12.840 to have kept the Israel, kept the Jewish people alive 2827 02:48:13.280 --> 02:48:16.840 since their exile from the Land of Israel, is very 2828 02:48:16.959 --> 02:48:20.559 much a diaspora mentality. It is a mentality which looks inward, 2829 02:48:20.799 --> 02:48:22.879 which says we are up against a world. 2830 02:48:22.639 --> 02:48:24.760 Which ignores torahurselves. 2831 02:48:25.360 --> 02:48:28.600 The Tanach is full of stories of the Jewish people 2832 02:48:28.600 --> 02:48:35.280 of antiquity, fighting, fighting real battles, killing real people in 2833 02:48:35.399 --> 02:48:38.319 defense of their nation and their people and their faith. 2834 02:48:38.600 --> 02:48:40.719 And that is what has to be done. And I 2835 02:48:40.840 --> 02:48:44.000 see that what we are seeing now in this war 2836 02:48:44.120 --> 02:48:47.280 that has been fought is the resurrection of the Tanach 2837 02:48:47.440 --> 02:48:53.559 jew the return of the heroic davidic warrior, strength not weakness. 2838 02:48:54.879 --> 02:48:57.360 And again, what they want to tell you if you're 2839 02:48:57.360 --> 02:48:59.600 a Christian is that they're all about Torah. We don't 2840 02:48:59.639 --> 02:49:05.079 care about that at all, is therebinical writings Kanak? And 2841 02:49:05.159 --> 02:49:09.520 yet you know you have Ted Cruz is concerned because 2842 02:49:09.559 --> 02:49:12.520 you had people applaud when there was a question about 2843 02:49:12.559 --> 02:49:15.399 the USS liberty. And yet when she says we're going 2844 02:49:15.440 --> 02:49:17.200 to mow down these people and kill them all off 2845 02:49:17.239 --> 02:49:20.040 once and for all, she got a lot of applause. 2846 02:49:20.760 --> 02:49:24.159 What is the issue of that? Well, this partnership that 2847 02:49:26.000 --> 02:49:29.879 Mike Evans has with the IDF, with their museum and 2848 02:49:29.920 --> 02:49:33.319 their educational thing there, he says that the IDEAF participates 2849 02:49:33.799 --> 02:49:37.559 in the Friends of Zion programming. One of the clearest 2850 02:49:37.600 --> 02:49:40.920 proofs that the Ministry is not merely adjacent to Israel 2851 02:49:41.200 --> 02:49:46.479 Israeli state power. It is a part of Israeli state power. 2852 02:49:46.879 --> 02:49:50.040 Friends of Zion is more than a cultural outpost, more 2853 02:49:50.079 --> 02:49:53.799 than a museum. It is a weight bearing pillar of 2854 02:49:53.840 --> 02:49:59.079 the political architecture that binds American evangelical support Israeli lobbying objectives. 2855 02:49:59.680 --> 02:50:03.040 Mike Evans has spent decades cultivating relationships with the American 2856 02:50:03.079 --> 02:50:07.600 political operators, presidents, and members of Congress. He has spent decades, 2857 02:50:07.719 --> 02:50:11.719 since the nineteen eighties, cultivating an even closer relationship of 2858 02:50:11.760 --> 02:50:16.520 Benjamin Netanyahu, a relationship that Israeli journalists have documented since 2859 02:50:16.559 --> 02:50:21.280 the nineteen eighties. Netanyahu's repeated appearances at Friends of Zion 2860 02:50:22.000 --> 02:50:27.120 events are not sentimental gestures. They are visible performances of 2861 02:50:27.200 --> 02:50:31.280 a political alliance. Of course, where do he get started 2862 02:50:31.319 --> 02:50:33.159 in the nineteen eighties, Well, if you go back and 2863 02:50:33.200 --> 02:50:36.120 look at what Mike Evans was doing back in the 2864 02:50:36.200 --> 02:50:39.920 nineteen eighties, he was pushing the Iraq war because that's 2865 02:50:39.920 --> 02:50:42.840 what Netanyahu did, and then he's pushing more recently, the 2866 02:50:42.920 --> 02:50:46.600 Iran war because that's what Netanyahu wants. And so he 2867 02:50:46.680 --> 02:50:52.319 pushes all of these different wars. He's got all of 2868 02:50:52.319 --> 02:50:57.959 these prophecy and Christian ministries that are instead of pushing 2869 02:50:58.000 --> 02:51:03.000 lies about weapons mass destruction, they're pushing lies about biblical prophecy. 2870 02:51:03.079 --> 02:51:05.879 That's really what is happening here. They get us into 2871 02:51:05.920 --> 02:51:10.879 these wars so they deliver the friends of Zion what 2872 02:51:11.120 --> 02:51:14.520 no formal lawby can deliver. It delivers millions of deeply 2873 02:51:14.639 --> 02:51:20.040 loyal evangelical voters who accept Israel's political interest as if 2874 02:51:20.159 --> 02:51:25.639 they were Christian moral duties, which is exactly what Mike 2875 02:51:25.680 --> 02:51:27.360 Huckabee is constantly saying. 2876 02:51:28.319 --> 02:51:32.920 The ambassador has a very interesting view of antisemitisms. Russ 2877 02:51:33.000 --> 02:51:37.239 who grew up in America, there was anti Semitism. Of course, 2878 02:51:38.159 --> 02:51:40.799 I've experience. Of all experiences, the ambassador has a very 2879 02:51:40.799 --> 02:51:43.959 interesting view of them. He says, people are You can't 2880 02:51:44.040 --> 02:51:47.920 understand that the Semitism, it's people who are antisemitic. It's 2881 02:51:47.959 --> 02:51:52.719 because they're against s thought, against the Bansulid, and we 2882 02:51:53.120 --> 02:51:56.440 are represented as his people and that's why they're anti Semitic. 2883 02:51:56.479 --> 02:52:02.639 Otherwise it doesn't make any sense. Interesting you, it's interesting, Hue. 2884 02:52:03.280 --> 02:52:06.360 There's another view that since we could say that it's 2885 02:52:06.399 --> 02:52:09.559 the chosen people so people are who are you? 2886 02:52:09.799 --> 02:52:12.760 What are you? Were taking bigas. 2887 02:52:14.879 --> 02:52:20.159 Chosen people, And that's part of it, is that because 2888 02:52:21.200 --> 02:52:25.840 you are the chosen people, given a chosen place for 2889 02:52:25.920 --> 02:52:30.360 a chosen purpose. And if someone is angry at God, 2890 02:52:30.840 --> 02:52:35.120 he'll be angry at the people who represent him. 2891 02:52:35.920 --> 02:52:38.600 So well, I would say, maybe it works this way. 2892 02:52:40.000 --> 02:52:43.239 Since the Lord Jesus Christ is God who has come 2893 02:52:43.280 --> 02:52:48.159 to earth. Perhaps the people who hate, who hate God, 2894 02:52:48.559 --> 02:52:51.600 who hate the Lord Jesus Christ, perhaps that's why they 2895 02:52:52.040 --> 02:52:57.959 attack people who do love the Lord and call them racist, 2896 02:52:58.360 --> 02:53:02.319 call them anti Semitic. It is your moral duty as 2897 02:53:02.360 --> 02:53:06.440 a Christian, as your moral duty period to understand who 2898 02:53:06.479 --> 02:53:09.799 the Lord of the universe is and to not side 2899 02:53:09.799 --> 02:53:14.600 with those who oppose him in every way. When FOZ 2900 02:53:14.799 --> 02:53:18.559 gives its Friends of Zion Award, the recipients are overwhelmingly 2901 02:53:18.680 --> 02:53:24.159 political leaders, not ministers or theologians. These awards are distributed 2902 02:53:24.200 --> 02:53:29.120 to sitting presidents, prime ministers, monarchs, foreign policy actors, ambassadors 2903 02:53:29.200 --> 02:53:34.879 like Huckabee, who function as a seal of evangelical legitimacy, 2904 02:53:35.600 --> 02:53:39.239 a public blessing that signals to millions of American Christians 2905 02:53:39.280 --> 02:53:43.239 that this person is a defender of God's chosen people. 2906 02:53:44.440 --> 02:53:50.719 And again it is pure politics with a thin veneer 2907 02:53:51.479 --> 02:53:55.639 of false theology. That's what we're talking about here. Foz 2908 02:53:55.760 --> 02:54:00.239 can mobilize pastors who will spend consecutive Sundays preaching in 2909 02:54:00.239 --> 02:54:05.079 favor of Israeli government policy. He says, as hard as 2910 02:54:05.079 --> 02:54:09.399 I looked, I couldn't find a single example of Friends 2911 02:54:09.440 --> 02:54:14.360 of Zion or Mike Evans ever preaching Jesus Christ or 2912 02:54:14.399 --> 02:54:19.920 his Gospel to israelis nothing, not a hint of gospel 2913 02:54:19.959 --> 02:54:25.360 witness whatsoever. Can you imagine all of those millions from 2914 02:54:25.440 --> 02:54:30.040 evangelicals in America thinking that they're doing something loving when 2915 02:54:30.040 --> 02:54:32.799 the most loving thing of all would be to share 2916 02:54:32.840 --> 02:54:36.760 the good News that is completely absent from their work. 2917 02:54:37.239 --> 02:54:39.959 All these people who say they love Israel and don't 2918 02:54:40.559 --> 02:54:43.159 talk to them about Christ, don't bother them with that. 2919 02:54:43.159 --> 02:54:46.479 They're already God's chosen people. You know, they're saved because 2920 02:54:46.479 --> 02:54:50.639 of their DNA or something that is not Christian. That 2921 02:54:50.760 --> 02:54:55.319 is not true. And anybody who says that has left 2922 02:54:55.520 --> 02:54:59.840 the faith. They have faith and politics not in Christ. 2923 02:55:00.639 --> 02:55:05.000 Before Friends of Zion existed as a brand, Mike Evans 2924 02:55:05.200 --> 02:55:09.159 operated the Jerusalem Prayer Team, an organization that raised money 2925 02:55:09.200 --> 02:55:13.760 for the municipal projects in Jerusalem, including direct fundraising for 2926 02:55:13.840 --> 02:55:18.040 the New Jerusalem Foundation, and the leadership of then Mayor 2927 02:55:18.520 --> 02:55:23.079 Ahud Ohmayer. Okay, he was the He later became Prime 2928 02:55:23.079 --> 02:55:26.639 Minister if you remember his name, just recently came up 2929 02:55:26.719 --> 02:55:32.200 as one as the controller for who Jeffrey Epstein. This 2930 02:55:32.239 --> 02:55:39.040 is what you're buying into the Epstein masad stuff. Friends 2931 02:55:39.079 --> 02:55:43.559 of Zion tell its donors that their contributions bless God's 2932 02:55:43.639 --> 02:55:46.879 chosen people. What it does not tell them is that 2933 02:55:46.920 --> 02:55:53.760 those donations finance Israeli municipal budgets, Israeli social programs, Israeli 2934 02:55:53.959 --> 02:56:01.280 military educational initiatives, Israeli media operations, Israeli diplomatic functions, and 2935 02:56:01.360 --> 02:56:06.520 Israeli tourism infrastructure. These donors believe they're supporting a spiritual mission, 2936 02:56:07.239 --> 02:56:11.239 but in reality they're actually underwriting the soft power of 2937 02:56:11.319 --> 02:56:15.079 a foreign government. Friends of Zion is not simply an 2938 02:56:15.120 --> 02:56:19.360 allied to Israel. It is a quiet extension of Israeli 2939 02:56:19.680 --> 02:56:25.520 state craft. We're talking about politics and governments here says 2940 02:56:25.559 --> 02:56:30.040 it is the same spirit that takes something earthly and 2941 02:56:30.120 --> 02:56:34.639 elevates it to something divine. Friends of Zion has taken 2942 02:56:34.680 --> 02:56:39.920 a modern state with all of its sins, with all 2943 02:56:39.959 --> 02:56:44.840 of its scandals, with all of its injustices, and its 2944 02:56:44.879 --> 02:56:50.600 political agendas, and has placed it on the altar. Guess 2945 02:56:50.639 --> 02:56:54.479 who the altar boy was for the Israeli state Jeffrey Epstein. 2946 02:56:55.399 --> 02:56:58.959 Then it turns and demands that Christians sacrifice truth and 2947 02:56:59.040 --> 02:57:04.600 integrity on that altar, even if it means slandering faithful brothers. 2948 02:57:05.680 --> 02:57:08.120 That's the key issue, folks. That's why I can't stay 2949 02:57:08.159 --> 02:57:14.399 silent about this. This has become a stench, it really has. 2950 02:57:14.719 --> 02:57:18.959 And it's a stench based on not just what the 2951 02:57:19.079 --> 02:57:22.600 Israeli government has done, but a stench as to the 2952 02:57:22.639 --> 02:57:27.239 devotion and the worship that nominal Christians have done. And 2953 02:57:27.239 --> 02:57:29.959 I say nominal because they take the name of Christ, 2954 02:57:30.120 --> 02:57:31.280 but they don't follow him. 2955 02:57:32.559 --> 02:57:32.799 JD. 2956 02:57:32.920 --> 02:57:36.280 Hall finishes by saying, this is what spiritual corruption looks 2957 02:57:36.360 --> 02:57:40.120 like when it matures. It takes the sacred things of 2958 02:57:40.200 --> 02:57:44.520 God and it enlists them in the service of earthly powers. 2959 02:57:45.239 --> 02:57:49.879 It uses scripture as a bludgeon to silence dissent. It 2960 02:57:49.959 --> 02:57:53.559 trades the humility of the Gospel for the arrogance a 2961 02:57:53.559 --> 02:57:58.559 political privilege, and it never repents because it believes that 2962 02:57:58.600 --> 02:58:03.000 it's loyalty to the state is a form of righteousness, 2963 02:58:03.879 --> 02:58:09.120 and that's what we're seeing here. And so we got 2964 02:58:09.120 --> 02:58:11.559 a couple of comments here before the program ends. 2965 02:58:11.639 --> 02:58:15.520 In the last minutes, Danny Boy fifty three says Substack, 2966 02:58:15.719 --> 02:58:19.079 by the way, loving the commercial free podcast, David, love 2967 02:58:19.120 --> 02:58:21.520 the tunes you've done. I'm a musician myself, guitarist and 2968 02:58:22.079 --> 02:58:23.639 multi instrumentalists. 2969 02:58:23.680 --> 02:58:25.440 Well, thank you very much. I appreciate that. 2970 02:58:25.760 --> 02:58:28.479 And of course if you are a subscriber on substack, 2971 02:58:28.520 --> 02:58:31.680 you get the podcast ad free. It's a good way 2972 02:58:31.680 --> 02:58:34.600 to support us, and you, like I said, get the 2973 02:58:34.639 --> 02:58:35.760 podcast add free. 2974 02:58:36.000 --> 02:58:40.399 Yeah, I was just going down memory yesterday I came 2975 02:58:40.440 --> 02:58:45.319 across the thing on YouTube which was Chicago the band Chicago, 2976 02:58:46.639 --> 02:58:50.959 and it was a concert Tanglewood nineteen seventy. I really 2977 02:58:51.000 --> 02:58:52.920 thoroughly enjoyed it. I mean it almost felt like I 2978 02:58:52.959 --> 02:58:55.520 was back in the band again because we did so 2979 02:58:55.600 --> 02:58:58.799 many Chicago covers back in the day and it's great 2980 02:58:58.840 --> 02:59:00.840 to hear them playing live. And of course the comments 2981 02:59:00.879 --> 02:59:03.319 there were like, look at this, people are playing music 2982 02:59:03.399 --> 02:59:06.520 live again. You know. It really was a great thing. 2983 02:59:06.840 --> 02:59:11.719 And there was a comment there about Terry cath and I, 2984 02:59:11.959 --> 02:59:16.120 you know, didn't follow Chicago enough to know the names 2985 02:59:16.120 --> 02:59:18.639 of all the different people. I knew Pancal's name because 2986 02:59:18.639 --> 02:59:21.680 he was a I believe it's been a long time. 2987 02:59:21.719 --> 02:59:24.799 I think pankw was the trombonist. I thought he was 2988 02:59:24.879 --> 02:59:29.440 really a fine musician. But they were talking about the guitarist, 2989 02:59:29.959 --> 02:59:32.360 and it turns out that he died when he was 2990 02:59:32.399 --> 02:59:34.920 only thirty one. He was the founder of Chicago. He 2991 02:59:35.000 --> 02:59:37.159 died at the age of thirty one, and he almost disbanded, 2992 02:59:37.159 --> 02:59:41.280 you know, kept him together. Doc Severnson talked to them 2993 02:59:41.280 --> 02:59:43.959 and said, you need to stay together. But he was 2994 02:59:43.959 --> 02:59:46.120 a really fine guitarist and the lead vocalist and the 2995 02:59:46.120 --> 02:59:50.159 founder of the group. He shot himself by accident. He 2996 02:59:50.239 --> 02:59:52.280 was playing around with He liked guys. He's playing around 2997 02:59:52.280 --> 02:59:55.280 with them, and he had the classic mistake of not 2998 02:59:55.399 --> 02:59:57.879 realizing that he had a semi automatic that still had 2999 02:59:57.879 --> 03:00:00.920 a bullet chambered in the round playing aroundies.
