[01:21.760 --> 01:38.000] In a world of deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act. It's the David Knight Show.
[01:38.000 --> 01:52.720] As the clock strikes 13, it's Columbus Day, Monday the 13th of October, year of our Lord 2025.
[01:53.520 --> 01:59.440] Well, today we're going to look at more Trump tacos thrown at the market. And the market had
[01:59.440 --> 02:04.800] a very interesting reaction, especially crypto. So we're going to talk about that. And we're going
[02:04.800 --> 02:12.400] to talk about the Trump apocalypse that he is so excited about and doing memes about. I got my
[02:12.400 --> 02:20.080] own meme because I saw a lot of work that was being done by MAGA fans cheering on police brutality.
[02:20.640 --> 02:28.880] And I got to say that I just, the real problem is at the grassroots level. That's what enables
[02:28.880 --> 02:33.520] the kinds of things that Trump is doing. So we're going to take a look at where we are and all that
[02:33.520 --> 02:40.480] and where they want us to go. The smart cities, the freedom cities, there's a lot more involved
[02:40.480 --> 02:45.520] in that. If you look at Peter Thiel and Curtis Sharvin, a lot more involved in that than simply
[02:46.480 --> 02:51.520] falling in line with the UN agenda. They've got their own agenda. That's what makes the
[02:51.520 --> 02:54.640] technocrats so dangerous. We'll be right back. Stay with us.
[03:10.160 --> 03:16.640] Well, another day, another capricious arbitrary temper tantrum raising tariffs,
[03:16.640 --> 03:23.920] this time to a hundred percent on China. And it is in response and Trump's defense to China
[03:23.920 --> 03:29.680] putting on new export controls on some key mineral materials and that type of thing.
[03:30.720 --> 03:36.960] Does he not realize though that his tariffs are essentially doing the same thing on the input side
[03:37.600 --> 03:43.920] for American manufacturing? We don't have the infrastructure involved here to get all this
[03:43.920 --> 03:50.720] stuff done in the U.S. As Lance mentioned once before, somebody tried to create a very simple
[03:50.720 --> 03:56.880] device and was going to have it a hundred percent sourced in America. But somebody needs to go back
[03:56.880 --> 04:03.440] and read Leonard Reed's eye pencil, which I spent a lot of time on five years ago when Trump was
[04:04.160 --> 04:08.800] shutting down the supply chains and breaking them left and right. I said, things have been
[04:08.800 --> 04:15.760] distributed all over the place and that isn't necessarily a bad thing. It can be done in a bad
[04:15.760 --> 04:22.480] way, but we need to have the resources available to us everywhere. And when you start messing,
[04:22.480 --> 04:26.720] it's not even just making something expensive. If he makes it expensive and leaves it that way,
[04:26.720 --> 04:31.920] you can deal with it. People can work around that, but he's constant. It's the constant chaos. It's
[04:31.920 --> 04:36.880] the on again, off again, on again, off again, on again, on again. Nobody can operate in a situation
[04:36.880 --> 04:43.280] like that. So he's deliberately shutting down our manufacturing and our farms, especially at the
[04:43.280 --> 04:47.600] small and mid level. The big guys have got deep pockets and no matter what happens, they can
[04:47.600 --> 04:52.000] continue to lose money on this and make it up on the stock market. We've seen that over and over
[04:52.000 --> 04:56.560] again. So what he's doing is he's destroying the little guys. He's destroying the small and medium
[04:56.560 --> 05:03.040] sized companies with this kind of reaction. And I don't disagree that we need to disconnect ourselves
[05:03.040 --> 05:08.880] from China. I do agree with that goal, but it makes all the difference in the world how you do it,
[05:08.880 --> 05:15.280] or if you do it. I mean, if that's the goal, shouldn't you plan about this? This is why it's
[05:15.280 --> 05:20.320] so dangerous when you look at all the different wars that Trump wants to get us into. Do they
[05:20.320 --> 05:25.440] plan on this? Do they have a plan? Or are they just going to jump in and start shooting everybody
[05:25.440 --> 05:28.800] and then react to what happens? And that's what he's doing on an economic level.
[05:29.520 --> 05:34.640] If they had a plan, they would have made sure that they secured some vital sources,
[05:34.640 --> 05:40.160] for example, the rare earth minerals. They would have known that there was going to be retaliation
[05:40.160 --> 05:45.440] against the farmers and they would have been ready to go with relief from day one rather than
[05:45.440 --> 05:52.720] letting the farmers die. And they still haven't done anything. They were quick to relieve Javier
[05:52.720 --> 05:57.520] Malay in Argentina. That money came right away, just like that. You just ask and he's got it.
[05:58.320 --> 06:05.440] But if you are a small farmer in Arkansas, you're facing economic ruin, and these guys
[06:05.440 --> 06:09.600] are still promising that someday they're going to do something about it. So don't worry. Trust the
[06:09.600 --> 06:16.320] plan, right? There is no plan. That's the problem. He's got some goal that he would like to achieve.
[06:17.040 --> 06:24.400] He has no plan on how to do it. He's made no preparations. He's done nothing to make it work.
[06:24.960 --> 06:29.280] Trump has announced that the U.S. will impose 100% tariffs on Chinese goods beginning
[06:29.840 --> 06:35.440] November 1st, in response to what he described as Beijing's extraordinarily aggressive new
[06:35.440 --> 06:41.280] trade restrictions. Beijing announced new export controls of certain strategic minerals
[06:41.840 --> 06:46.240] that have dual use and military applications, saying that the move was intended to protect
[06:46.240 --> 06:50.960] national security and to meet international obligations, including those related to
[06:50.960 --> 06:57.520] nonproliferation. Except that when Trump puts these controls on like tinplate and things like
[06:57.520 --> 07:02.400] that that people are using in order to make cans so that we can put food that we grow in the cans
[07:02.400 --> 07:06.800] and other things like that, when he does that, that may not be something that is being used by
[07:06.800 --> 07:13.360] the military. But he's made no preparations to make sure that that's here, just like he's made
[07:13.360 --> 07:21.600] no preparations to secure our rare earth supplies before he cuts them off with his temper tantrums.
[07:22.480 --> 07:26.880] So large-scale export controls on virtually every product they make and some not even made by them,
[07:26.880 --> 07:32.960] he said, that will affect all countries without exception. Well, the 90-day pause has seen U.S.
[07:32.960 --> 07:41.360] tariffs on Chinese goods fall from 145%, remember the bidding war that he had on this, to 30%, the
[07:41.360 --> 07:49.120] Chinese tariffs products dropped from 125% to 10%. The extension expires in November.
[07:50.640 --> 07:57.200] Trump described China's move as absolutely unheard of in international trade. Well, so is his. We've
[07:57.200 --> 08:04.160] never had a situation where one individual just unilaterally imposes trade restrictions like this
[08:04.720 --> 08:08.000] and then takes them off and then puts them back on and takes them off. That is what's
[08:08.000 --> 08:15.680] unprecedented. It's just amazing that he can get away with this. He says it's a moral disgrace.
[08:15.680 --> 08:21.760] Yeah, it really is to see what he's doing. And so what has been the fallout? Well, stocks plunged
[08:21.760 --> 08:28.880] and after hours trade, as Trump confirmed, the 100% tariffs and export controls on China. And
[08:30.400 --> 08:37.040] of course, Michael Snyder, the Economic Collapse blog, had an article about farmers facing the
[08:37.040 --> 08:42.960] worst economic downturn in at least 50 years. And I thought, I wonder what Michael Snyder has to
[08:42.960 --> 08:47.280] say about Trump, because I know Michael, I've interviewed him a couple of times. He came to
[08:47.280 --> 08:53.280] the studio, met him in person, we interviewed and talked afterwards. When he was there, he was
[08:53.280 --> 09:02.000] getting ready to do a run for Congress in Idaho. And Gary Haven was there as well, the billionaire
[09:02.000 --> 09:07.680] who did the Curves franchise. And, you know, we talked, put in a good word for Michael.
[09:08.560 --> 09:14.320] And I don't know what came of it. If Gary helped him, it certainly seemed like he was going to
[09:14.320 --> 09:19.520] help him. But he didn't win. But I thought at the time, I thought it'd be good to have somebody who
[09:20.640 --> 09:26.720] has the... You know what? It sucks to be bored. But when I get on my phone and play real casino
[09:26.720 --> 09:33.440] games on spinquest.com, the time flies by. That two hour wait at the DMV seems like 10 minutes.

[09:50.160 --> 09:53.520] details.
[10:21.040 --> 10:26.160] It's effective that Michael does, but what he's showing in this article is that he would have
[10:26.160 --> 10:32.080] just been another Mike Johnson. I'm ashamed to say. He didn't mention Trump once. What's the
[10:32.080 --> 10:38.480] matter with you, Michael? Come on. You got to talk about the key part of this problem is, you know,
[10:38.480 --> 10:44.720] yes, there's a structural issue with the farms. It's a big issue. However, what is happening right
[10:44.720 --> 10:52.400] now is Trump is pouring gasoline on their fields and setting it on fire. How can you do an article
[10:52.400 --> 10:59.520] about what they're facing and not mention Trump and this fiasco with China and shutting down the
[10:59.520 --> 11:04.720] soybean market and all the rest of this stuff? I just don't understand it. He says the agricultural
[11:04.720 --> 11:09.040] issue in the US is deeply broken. Farmers are the foundation of it all, but they are being
[11:09.040 --> 11:13.760] financially squeezed from every direction, being squeezed by the giant monopolies that control the
[11:13.760 --> 11:18.160] seeds, fertilizer, machinery that they need, being squeezed by giant monopolies that purchase
[11:18.160 --> 11:22.800] most of what they produce. Meanwhile, demand from overseas has dried up thanks to the global trade
[11:22.800 --> 11:30.080] war. That's as close as he gets. Does not mention Trump who started the global trade war. US farmers
[11:30.080 --> 11:34.560] really are facing a perfect storm and as a result, most farms are losing money and bankruptcies are
[11:34.560 --> 11:42.160] surging. Yeah, well, you know, this is all deliberate from Trump and whether or not it's a plan
[11:42.160 --> 11:48.240] of his. Whether or not he's doing this for Peter Thiel and company as part of the great takedown.
[11:50.240 --> 11:56.000] He's still pouring gasoline on the fire. Horror stories. The pain is unreal. Worst farming
[11:56.000 --> 12:02.480] situation I've seen in my life, says one guy who's the president of the Farm Protection Alliance.
[12:03.440 --> 12:07.680] He's 40 years old. He said, look at the extension, University of Arkansas numbers.
[12:08.400 --> 12:16.160] Corn growers losing 240 acres dollars per acre. Soybean losing 144 dollars per acre.
[12:16.720 --> 12:23.680] Rice losing 380 per acre. And the cotton growers may be the worst of all. And this is why we're
[12:23.680 --> 12:32.480] seeing a large number of bankruptcies, especially in Arkansas. In a nutshell, we're going over a
[12:32.480 --> 12:41.520] cliff in Arkansas, he said. Banks are forecasting farm bankruptcies at 25 to 40 percent. And the
[12:41.520 --> 12:46.640] dirty secret is out. Everyone knows it. Everyone feels it. That's why some people have said
[12:47.280 --> 12:53.520] about one in three farms. Kind of midpoint roughly between the 25 to 40 percent. But it could be
[12:53.520 --> 13:00.320] worse. It could be 40 percent. Could be nearly half the farms just in that one state. And the
[13:00.320 --> 13:07.280] response to all that is you constantly hear Besant, Treasury Secretary Besant saying,
[13:07.280 --> 13:11.600] yeah, we're thinking about doing something. Yeah, you're thinking about it, are you?
[13:13.520 --> 13:18.080] In response to what you kicked off. Why did some, and then we have crypto.
[13:18.960 --> 13:27.200] Crypto had an aha moment here. Why did some altcoins on Binance crash all the way to zero?
[13:28.000 --> 13:33.120] So this has affected the stock market. It's affected the crypto market. And the thing I
[13:33.120 --> 13:42.960] find interesting about this is that crypto seems to be moving not in opposition to the economy
[13:42.960 --> 13:49.440] and the stock market, but in the same direction with it, which means that it's not what tells me
[13:49.840 --> 13:58.560] is that it's not a hedge like gold and silver are. Briefly hit zero on Binance during Friday's
[13:58.560 --> 14:05.200] crypto crash, but stayed afloat elsewhere. Some of this was a liquidity issue with Binance.
[14:06.080 --> 14:15.920] Bitcoin fell about 10 to 15 percent from their highs down to lows of 105,000 from 124,000. However,
[14:15.920 --> 14:22.160] altcoins were far worse, especially those that traded on Binance with many of them plunging
[14:23.040 --> 14:30.400] nearly 100 percent in minutes. So 100 percent tariffs on China and we get a 100 percent
[14:32.240 --> 14:39.200] on altcoins. Funny how that works. It is funny how it works. If you're not holding this stuff,
[14:39.200 --> 14:44.400] a lot of people lost a lot of money. Nearly 20 billion dollars worth of crypto positions
[14:44.400 --> 14:50.800] were liquidated, about 20 times more than during the 2020 COVID-19 market route,
[14:51.520 --> 14:58.960] which is also Trump. Over 1.6 million traders lost their positions as leverage wiped them out.
[14:59.840 --> 15:05.440] One and a half million people completely wiped out with their positions on that coin there.
[15:06.080 --> 15:11.280] Major exchanges, including Binance, were liquidating collateral tied to cross-margin positions,
[15:11.920 --> 15:15.360] which exacerbated the selloff. Arthur Hayes says,
[15:15.360 --> 15:22.000] Where on the street is that big exchange's auto-liquidation of collateral tied to cross-margin
[15:22.000 --> 15:29.040] positions is why lots of alts got smoked on the move down? Congrats to all you stink bitters. We
[15:29.040 --> 15:37.280] won't be seeing those levels anytime soon on high-quality alts. So another guy whose cowboy says,
[15:37.360 --> 15:41.440] Binance has proven once again why they are the biggest scammers in crypto.
[15:42.080 --> 15:45.440] During a recent market crash, they froze their accounts across the board,
[15:45.440 --> 15:48.240] preventing traders from accessing their funds at critical times.
[15:51.040 --> 15:55.360] Some analysts said that the market makers, like Wintermute, withdrew their funds from
[15:55.360 --> 16:01.040] Binance due to those delays. This meant that there were no buy orders left for a few moments.
[16:01.040 --> 16:08.240] So the system showed zero prices for some coins, even though the tokens still had value elsewhere.
[16:09.120 --> 16:15.040] This is the way stock markets crash as well. And so the question is, is this is what it's
[16:15.040 --> 16:20.160] going to look like when the bubble finally bursts on the NVIDIA AI boom that's going on there.
[16:20.960 --> 16:26.480] What happened yesterday, says Jean-Pierre Demata. He says, What happened yesterday, in my view,
[16:27.440 --> 16:32.080] was that the market makers turned off their liquidity bots. As a result, alt coins were
[16:32.080 --> 16:39.280] left without buy orders while stop losses were triggered. And coincidentally, Binance froze,
[16:39.280 --> 16:44.480] preventing anyone from buying. Those buy orders would have helped absorb the sell pressure
[16:44.480 --> 16:48.880] and provided liquidity during the drop. He says, To me, it all seems highly coordinated,
[16:49.520 --> 16:55.680] especially considering that just moments before Wintermute transferred $700 million to Binance.
[16:56.640 --> 17:00.160] So let's be real, do you really think Binance doesn't have the technology to handle a crash
[17:00.160 --> 17:06.320] like that without freezing? No other major exchange went down. So the real question is,
[17:06.320 --> 17:17.200] why did Binance freeze? He said, Well, again, the crypto crash wake up call. This is also from
[17:17.200 --> 17:23.840] Michael Snyder. He says, What we just saw happen was massive liquidations, break of key support
[17:23.840 --> 17:30.240] levels, weak institutional flows and investor pullback, macro headwinds and bond yields,
[17:30.240 --> 17:37.840] and sentiment collapse. Now, he's saying that it's a much bigger issue. And you did have
[17:39.120 --> 17:46.960] crypto affected, Bitcoin was affected and Ethereum was affected. I look at it as these alt coins
[17:46.960 --> 17:53.680] going to zero, that was all Binance. And the fact that a lot of these alt coins are only traded
[17:53.680 --> 18:00.800] on one exchange. And so that's a big issue with that. But when you look at the direction that it
[18:00.800 --> 18:06.400] moves and the reaction that it has to bad economic news, that's the bigger story, I think. It isn't
[18:06.400 --> 18:12.640] so much that there was a hitch and these alt coins and that the crypto stuff went down on the news.
[18:12.640 --> 18:16.800] To me, the issue is that it moved in tandem with the stock markets. What's going to happen with
[18:16.800 --> 18:24.400] crypto when the stock market bumps collapses? And it is going to collapse. It's not a matter of if,
[18:24.400 --> 18:32.960] but it is a matter of when this AI thing is going to go. Because it's so far the hype is so far ahead
[18:32.960 --> 18:40.160] of the reality. And I know that there's a reality out there of how AI can be used, but people are
[18:40.160 --> 18:43.920] still looking around for how they're going to be able to use it profitably. What's up, baby,

[19:50.000 --> 19:55.280] However, when you look at all these other issues, the AI slop that is out there and the
[19:55.840 --> 20:02.320] Deloitte and Touche, you know, or just Deloitte, I guess, and other law firms that have been caught
[20:02.960 --> 20:09.440] using AI to put together their audits or their briefs or whatever, and the AI making stuff up,
[20:10.560 --> 20:16.160] it's not ready for prime time. And yet we have, people have invested in the stock market like
[20:16.160 --> 20:22.080] it's already in prime time. That's the issue. Just like with the dot com bust. Was the internet real?
[20:22.080 --> 20:27.280] Yes. Was the internet huge in our lives? Yes. But they got ahead of everything in terms of the hype.
[20:27.920 --> 20:31.440] And then they panicked and ran for the exits. And that's the way these things work.
[20:32.320 --> 20:36.640] In the past few days, the cryptocurrency market has undergone a sharp reversal. Prices across
[20:36.640 --> 20:42.320] Bitcoin, Ethereum, and many prominent alt coins have collapsed, liquidating billions in speculative
[20:42.320 --> 20:48.240] bets, rattling investor confidence. This is not merely a garden variety pullback. It is a wake
[20:48.240 --> 20:55.840] up call that the crypto space may be dangerously overextended and fragile under stress. Far more
[20:55.840 --> 21:02.880] risky than many public narratives will admit. And I agree with him on that. So when you look at who
[21:02.880 --> 21:09.920] generally invests in the crypto space, it's mostly younger guys who are just incredibly bullish.
[21:09.920 --> 21:13.840] They're just, you know, cryptos go into the moon. I'm going to invest in this coin, this coin,
[21:13.840 --> 21:19.520] that coin, whatever coin I think might be next. It's incredibly speculative. None of it is really
[21:19.520 --> 21:24.720] based on any sort of, oh, I think this actually has real world utility. It's all a bunch of,
[21:24.720 --> 21:28.400] well, this one I think could explode. I think this one might be the next one that takes off.
[21:28.400 --> 21:33.600] It's a gamble. It's a gamble. And sometimes they put too much into it. They gamble too much.
[21:33.600 --> 21:39.200] That market is always going to be incredibly volatile just based on who is involved with it.
[21:39.200 --> 21:44.160] It's not based on reality. It's all based on I'm going to get rich. This is going to be the next
[21:44.160 --> 21:48.000] one that takes off. And that's the characteristics of all the bubbles. Once you get a lot of people
[21:48.000 --> 21:53.760] in who have, you know, they're not really looking at fundamentals and long-term investment. They're
[21:53.760 --> 21:59.440] just playing a hunch, right? And they're gambling. And then when things start to go bad, you know,
[21:59.440 --> 22:02.800] they're watching this stuff and the first sign that something is bad. I got to get out. I got
[22:02.800 --> 22:06.640] to get out. I'm going to lose it all. Yeah. So first they get in for fear of missing out.
[22:06.640 --> 22:11.760] And then they jump out for fear of staying in. And that's what creates these situations.
[22:11.760 --> 22:17.360] Like I said, I lost a lot of money in the dot-com bust because I looked at it and said,
[22:17.360 --> 22:22.240] yeah, the internet is for real, absolutely for real. And I didn't even want to pick a particular
[22:22.240 --> 22:28.400] stock like Amazon or whatever. But I wanted to invest in the switching equipment that was going
[22:28.400 --> 22:34.000] to be used to build the internet. I thought that was a safe bet. Everybody got hammered. Everybody
[22:34.000 --> 22:40.000] got hammered. I mean, you saw Intel and everything, but you know, all the big telecommunication
[22:40.000 --> 22:44.640] companies, even some of the others like JDS Uniphase that were building switching equipment.
[22:44.640 --> 22:51.360] I mean, it was just blood in the streets when it happened because it was mass panic. And I
[22:51.360 --> 22:56.880] can look back on it and laugh now, but it was not funny at the time. So liquidity is thinner than
[22:56.880 --> 23:04.800] advertised. Narratives mask real risks. And it is a stress test for confidence, which they didn't do
[23:04.800 --> 23:12.320] too well. So the bigger picture, says Michael Snyder, is a crypto reckoning. Crashes more than
[23:12.320 --> 23:17.120] temporary shakeout. It may signal deeper structural tension in the crypto economy. The industry's
[23:17.120 --> 23:22.160] longer relied on narratives and forward-looking valuations and not on stable cash flows or
[23:22.160 --> 23:30.160] durable foundations. And in tough conditions, these beliefs fail first. So it has to have an
[23:30.160 --> 23:34.320] effective risk structure. And again, even that is getting out ahead of things because
[23:35.520 --> 23:41.760] Lucky Lutnik and Trump have not put in their crypto scam foundation yet. So, you know,
[23:41.760 --> 23:47.600] they've not started buying into crypto and they've not started with the stablecoin
[23:50.320 --> 23:55.120] propping that up in the way that they are going to prop it up. So I think that the story for that
[23:55.120 --> 24:02.240] is better in the long term, but who knows what's going to happen in the short term. So it truly
[24:02.240 --> 24:08.960] is crazy. So meanwhile, on the metal side, you're seeing things like this. One way to position for
[24:08.960 --> 24:18.480] $100 silver. Is that crazy? I mean, you know, I just ask you this, are we looking at an economy
[24:18.480 --> 24:24.240] that is more stable and the foundations are starting to get aligned right now? Or is it
[24:24.240 --> 24:28.720] getting shakier than it has been over the last year where we saw the price of silver already
[24:28.720 --> 24:34.800] double once? And I know that sounds crazy, but following a run up on the gold market where it
[24:34.800 --> 24:47.120] has gone up more than 51% year to date, silver is now 73% up. And so again, just mention David
[24:47.120 --> 24:52.720] Knight dot gold, which take you to Tony Arnabon Wolfpack. If you want to start collecting
[24:52.720 --> 24:58.960] something, it's going to be a hedge against what is coming. You can do that on a gradual basis with
[24:58.960 --> 25:02.560] Wolfpack. I don't know anybody else that does anything like that. Of course, Tony can handle
[25:02.560 --> 25:09.840] your gold and silver transactions. He can convert Bitcoin to gold or silver as well without a fee,
[25:09.840 --> 25:16.000] he said. And so I just go to David Knight dot gold and let him know that you're coming through us
[25:16.800 --> 25:23.120] and you need to get into something that is real. Gold's acceleration reveals a
[25:23.680 --> 25:30.880] vanishing calm and coming change. That's right. It only took 200 days for it to go from
[25:30.880 --> 25:38.640] 3000 to 4000. It's almost difficult to remember really that when that was a really big look,
[25:38.640 --> 25:44.080] it went over 3000. Now it's over 4000. These are the kind of psychological barriers that
[25:44.080 --> 25:52.640] break these things. And as John Rubino has been warning of a currency crisis for several years now,
[25:53.600 --> 26:00.160] it's not just the US dollar. It's not just the euro. It's not just the yen. Everything is up
[26:00.160 --> 26:05.040] in the air. And that's why all the central banks are all collecting gold. They all see what is on
[26:05.040 --> 26:11.760] the horizon. We have massive debt that is unfunded except by crypto and monetizing of the debt,
[26:11.760 --> 26:17.600] but we're not the only country doing it. This crazy thing is that Germany just started doing
[26:17.600 --> 26:23.520] this massive deficit financing so they could ramp up their dead military industrial complex.
[26:23.520 --> 26:29.120] They jump in at the tail end of the bubble. Nobody told Fred Mertz what was going on.
[26:30.400 --> 26:36.000] Lucy's going to have some explaining to do here. Gold is saying that the Fiat currency experiment
[26:36.000 --> 26:41.280] is ending globally. That's what Rubino says. He said, if you watch the financial press,
[26:41.280 --> 26:46.240] they're noting that the price of gold is going up, but they're treating it like any other asset.
[26:46.800 --> 26:52.480] He said gold is humanity's oldest form of money so that when it goes up in price, that means that
[26:52.480 --> 26:58.160] the currencies against it, which we're measuring it, are going down in value. What we're seeing
[26:58.160 --> 27:04.400] all around the world is Fiat currencies declining in value dramatically, especially against gold.
[27:05.120 --> 27:11.920] Gold just in the last couple of weeks pierced not just its all-time nominal high, but its all-time
[27:11.920 --> 27:18.160] inflation adjusted high. This is a much bigger deal because we've had so much inflation in the
[27:18.160 --> 27:24.400] last 30 or 40 years. Basically, gold is saying that the Fiat currency experiment is ending. In
[27:24.400 --> 27:29.440] other words, the monetary system we set up in 1971 when we went off the gold standard, Bretton Woods
[27:29.440 --> 27:36.000] II, this led countries to create way too much debt, increase their spending dramatically,
[27:36.000 --> 27:40.880] and basically make all the mistakes that a human makes when you give them an unlimited credit card.
[27:41.920 --> 27:47.040] Now we're burdened with debt we cannot pay off and people expect to be taken care of.
[27:47.680 --> 27:53.280] France is a good example of this. He said governments around the world are forced to buy
[27:53.280 --> 27:58.000] more and more money to cover the obligations they've taken on and to cover the interest costs
[27:58.000 --> 28:02.480] on their debt. This requires them to print more money and that is lowering the value of the
[28:02.480 --> 28:06.800] currencies even more. What's going on, Texas? It's Bluff here. Are you sick and tired of going to

[29:08.800 --> 29:13.840] and that is where we are right now. Because we're in that death spiral right now. And the
[29:13.840 --> 29:20.320] thing I find interesting is that I would have thought that Bitcoin would be something of a
[29:21.120 --> 29:26.240] counter to that, but it doesn't appear to be. When things get tough, it doesn't hang tough.
[29:27.120 --> 29:31.760] In order for gold to serve as foundation for the next monetary system, that's why they're
[29:31.760 --> 29:35.840] accumulating so much gold. You can see it even with the BRICS people, right? They're trying to
[29:35.840 --> 29:43.280] set up their own system. So where do they go to back it up? They go to gold. They want to get out
[29:43.280 --> 29:47.280] of this system that's been weaponized against them. They want to set up a new one. So that's
[29:47.280 --> 29:53.680] why they're accumulating gold. As we did in the classical gold standard that was in place up until
[29:53.680 --> 29:59.680] World War I, if we went back to that, you would need a gold price of around $20,000 an ounce.
[30:00.640 --> 30:05.280] You would need this to back all the currencies that are out there now. And if we keep doing
[30:05.280 --> 30:10.560] what we're doing now, the fiat currencies would go to zero, which means that gold would go to
[30:10.560 --> 30:18.320] infinity. My guess on the future gold price is somewhere between $20,000 and infinity,
[30:19.520 --> 30:27.120] to infinity and beyond. You've got to take some buzz light your approach to the price of gold.
[30:27.120 --> 30:33.600] But the bottom line is that that may be an optimistic scenario for a gold investor. However,
[30:34.320 --> 30:45.120] when you look at the foundation that is there, the question is, it still looks good,
[30:45.120 --> 30:49.040] regardless of what the next limit is. As a matter of fact, another guy, Hartnett, said the gold is
[30:49.040 --> 30:56.240] going to be $6,000 by next spring. Keep seeing conservative things coming out of Bank of America
[30:56.240 --> 31:02.160] and Goldman Sachs saying, well, I think it's going to be $4,000 by the second quarter next year.
[31:02.640 --> 31:09.520] Well, mate, it's $4,000 right after they say that. Now go up to like $4,900. They're very conservative
[31:09.520 --> 31:14.560] while they do. But this guy is saying $6,000. Rubino is saying $20,000 eventually, where this
[31:14.560 --> 31:23.440] all goes. So the question is, what will the meltdown on Friday do to Trump's response?
[31:24.320 --> 31:30.240] What will that feel like today? What kind of a meltdown are we going to see in the market today?
[31:30.240 --> 31:36.000] Of course, nobody knows. Nobody can predict the markets in advance. They can rig the markets
[31:36.000 --> 31:45.760] in advance. But this is all, again, let's not forget what kicked off this whole thing. Who lit
[31:45.760 --> 31:53.200] the fire? It was Donald Trump who lit the fire on this, no doubt about it. So the big crash,
[31:53.200 --> 32:00.640] we're headed for another 1929. This is from the Telegraph, the UK, looking at a hypothetical
[32:00.640 --> 32:06.560] scenario where a global financial crisis could occur during a combination of factors, including
[32:07.120 --> 32:13.840] a bursting AI bubble, highly likely, a debt crisis, highly likely, and a loss of confidence
[32:13.840 --> 32:18.640] in the US dollar, also highly likely. The article also highlights the parallels between the current
[32:18.640 --> 32:24.320] situations and the events leading up to the Great Depression. It's October 2027, and the
[32:24.320 --> 32:30.080] polycrisis that financial markets have long feared is unfolding at speed. Putin has made a strong
[32:30.080 --> 32:35.040] gains in his war against Ukraine and begun massing troops at Europe's border in readiness for an
[32:35.040 --> 32:41.920] invasion of one or more of the Baltic states. In the Far East, and again, this is the Telegraph,
[32:42.000 --> 32:45.760] I don't think that that, I could be wrong. I don't know what's in Putin's mind, but
[32:48.000 --> 32:55.120] you know, if NATO felt that it was in their best interest to constantly push, push, push towards
[32:55.120 --> 33:01.520] Russia, then to use surrogates to attack Russia. Perhaps Putin would do that. I don't see that
[33:01.520 --> 33:11.120] their beef in Ukraine is a domino theory situation like they lied to us about Vietnam. But it could
[33:11.120 --> 33:18.880] be that maybe he realizes that, you know, it gets into an existential fight. Perhaps he would come
[33:18.880 --> 33:26.080] after the countries of Europe. I don't know. In the Far East, China's Xi Jinping is openly preparing
[33:26.080 --> 33:31.840] for his long-promised assault on Taiwan, emboldened by both Putin's success and Trump's drubbing in
[33:31.840 --> 33:37.200] the Congressional midterms, which has significantly reduced the US's scope for effective retaliation.
[33:37.840 --> 33:42.880] In the Middle East, the fragile peace secured by Trump in 2025 has already fallen apart,
[33:42.880 --> 33:48.400] plunging the region into renewed conflict. Look, we'll talk about that. We'll talk about Qatar
[33:48.400 --> 33:55.040] and their role in it and the things that were tied to Qatar, the military base, the arms deal,
[33:55.920 --> 34:04.080] the golf course, so many different things. This is just, you know, Trump economics here and Trump
[34:04.080 --> 34:14.240] diplomacy. It's like, where's my cut? I just can't find the words to adequately express my
[34:14.240 --> 34:20.640] contempt for what the man is doing. It's just in every arena. So this is their scenario, okay?
[34:20.640 --> 34:25.920] You just take things where they are right now and tweak them a little bit to the bad side,
[34:25.920 --> 34:34.880] which is very probable for all this. I don't know that, you know, Putin feels strong enough
[34:34.880 --> 34:42.080] to take on all of Europe and the US. I think for the most part, this has been something of a
[34:42.080 --> 34:48.080] defensive war, frankly. But I was surprised when he went into Ukraine. I thought that was a bad
[34:48.080 --> 34:55.600] move. I thought when he did that, he basically fed their narrative. And so I don't know about that.
[34:55.600 --> 35:02.400] But the rest of the stuff is pretty straightforward. On the stock markets, it's mayhem. Trillions of
[35:02.400 --> 35:09.280] dollars of losses are being inflicted on the one-time boom sector of artificial intelligence.
[35:09.280 --> 35:13.200] With the global economy on the brink of recession and unemployment climbing sharply,
[35:13.200 --> 35:19.440] it's clear that the market for AI services has been grossly overestimated. They got way ahead
[35:19.440 --> 35:26.400] of themselves. And I think I saw this early because of my own personal experience with the
[35:26.400 --> 35:31.760] dot-com bust. A lot of people, I think, were slow to see it because they didn't get...
[35:34.080 --> 35:39.680] Sometimes when you get that upside the head with a two by four, you sometimes learn something from it.
[35:41.440 --> 35:43.120] Once burned, twice shy.
[35:43.120 --> 35:47.360] Yeah, I think I got hit harder than most of these people who are predicting the rosy scenario for AI.
[35:47.920 --> 35:52.320] Despite promises made by AI evangelists, productivity is flatlining. And far from
[35:52.320 --> 35:59.040] improving output, reports suggest AI is damaging many businesses where it has been most fervently
[35:59.040 --> 36:05.680] applied. Some claims on which AI has been sold to investors and lenders even turn out to be overtly
[36:05.680 --> 36:10.880] fraudulent. Many of the mega deals that characterize the latter stages of the great AI gold rush with
[36:10.880 --> 36:15.520] customers and suppliers incestuously taking cross holdings in one another. That's the circular
[36:15.600 --> 36:23.200] investment we see going on with Nvidia and some of its customers are fast unraveling in an orgy
[36:23.200 --> 36:28.880] of litigation, broken promises, and scattered expectations. But that's not all. Overlaying the
[36:28.880 --> 36:35.200] stock market crash is a debt crisis of monstrous proportions. Almost everywhere, bond market
[36:35.200 --> 36:40.320] investors are on strike and interest rates are rocketing. In other words, nobody's buying the
[36:40.320 --> 36:45.120] government debt anymore because they don't believe they're going to get paid. Global governments are
[36:45.120 --> 36:51.600] struggling both to refinance mountainous debts and to fund ballooning expenditures. Private credit,
[36:51.600 --> 36:57.040] a form of finance that has flourished outside the conventional most more tightly regulated banking
[36:57.040 --> 37:02.320] system, is in a meltdown with a folly of lending to higher risk enterprises unable to access credit
[37:02.320 --> 37:08.880] elsewhere, now cruelly exposed for all to see. You know, kind of like the subprime loans that we saw.
[37:09.840 --> 37:16.560] The only thing that he doesn't have factored in here is that I think Lucky Lutnik and Bessett,
[37:16.560 --> 37:22.400] I think these guys are really clever at what they do. Bessett was with Soros when he broke
[37:22.400 --> 37:25.920] the Bank of England. So these guys know what they're doing when it comes to-
[37:25.920 --> 37:32.320] What's up, baby? It's Bretzky. And I'm here to tell you that spinquest.com is giving out free

[38:25.520 --> 38:31.360] Money. They're fiendishly good at it. And that's what I think this whole stable coin thing is.
[38:32.000 --> 38:37.600] It's not that the coin itself is stable, but it's there to stabilize the government's debt
[38:37.600 --> 38:44.480] and to take it out to the retail level. So that is the one thing that may come through. I don't know.
[38:45.760 --> 38:50.400] So bad is the shock that the whole construct of competing fiat currencies on which the world's
[38:50.400 --> 38:55.120] financial architecture is built seems to be crumbling. And instead, states are hurriedly
[38:55.120 --> 39:00.480] erecting financial border controls in a futile attempt to stop the investors who haven't lost
[39:00.480 --> 39:06.720] everything fleeing for safer shores. But those investors are realizing a dreadful truth. Even
[39:06.720 --> 39:13.200] if you can get your money out, there appears to be no safe place left to put it. So this, of course,
[39:13.200 --> 39:19.360] is a wholly imagined doomsday future. Yet finance is built entirely on trust and confidence,
[39:19.360 --> 39:26.560] and rarely has it looked quite so fragile as it does today. Even the usually sleepy Bank of England
[39:26.560 --> 39:31.760] and the IMF have now taken to warning about the possibilities of a sharp destabilizing
[39:31.760 --> 39:37.760] correction in the stock markets, all puffed up as they are by fevered speculation
[39:37.760 --> 39:44.400] over the potentially transformative powers of AI. Valuations are stretched to the breaking point
[39:44.400 --> 39:50.880] with the so-called Shuler cyclically adjusted price earnings ratio, which I've never heard of
[39:50.880 --> 39:58.160] before. Generally regarded as the most reliable indicator where the market is relative to past
[39:58.160 --> 40:04.400] peaks. It's close to the all-time high that recorded during the dot-com bubble and slightly
[40:04.400 --> 40:11.360] higher than it was before the great crash of 1929. The parallels of previous market manias
[40:11.360 --> 40:19.440] are striking. So is this 1929 all over again? Surely not. We are all too clever, far too clever
[40:20.080 --> 40:25.760] worldly-wise and conditioned by the disastrous consequences of the most famous of all stock
[40:25.760 --> 40:32.480] market crashes to let it happen again. It's unthinkable. Or is it? When a banking titan
[40:32.480 --> 40:39.200] as seasoned as Jamie Demon, chief executive of JP Morgan, openly expresses his concern,
[40:39.200 --> 40:43.600] it's time to sit up and take notice. He said in an interview last week that he's far more worried
[40:43.600 --> 40:49.200] than others about the possibility of a serious market collapse. There were a lot of things out
[40:49.200 --> 40:54.320] there, he said, creating an atmosphere of uncertainty. And he went on citing geopolitical
[40:54.320 --> 41:00.720] instability, unaffordable state spending, remilitarization. I guess he could sum it up by
[41:00.720 --> 41:09.280] saying Trump. Yet if it's not clear which needle will burst the bubble, there's no doubt about the
[41:09.280 --> 41:16.160] bubble itself. The AI hype is off the scale with a big prize dominance, not of the generative AI
[41:16.160 --> 41:21.200] chatbots we've already become accustomed to using, but of so-called general artificial
[41:21.200 --> 41:26.800] intelligence or computers with cognitive powers similar to a human being, only infinitely faster
[41:26.800 --> 41:32.880] and more powerful. The dangers of AI fever are not just an unhinged stock market speculation,
[41:33.440 --> 41:38.400] such as the magnitude of investment in AI data centers. That's going to be a huge disruption
[41:38.400 --> 41:44.880] to our power grid. And we're going to be able to make anything that's real when we are using all
[41:44.880 --> 41:50.240] of our power to entertain ourselves in a fantasy cyber world. That's the question.
[41:51.200 --> 41:57.920] And so it is really destructive of capital, it is destructive of power for the grid,
[41:57.920 --> 42:03.200] it's destructive of so many different things. And in terms of economics, like Cory Doctorow said,
[42:04.960 --> 42:12.800] look, the AI may not be able to replace you, but your boss might fire you if he thinks that it can.
[42:13.520 --> 42:17.680] And even if the AI can't do the job, you won't have a job either. That's his point.
[42:18.320 --> 42:23.520] So obviously they're believing the hype because they're investing big dollars in it. We've already
[42:23.520 --> 42:32.160] seen a lot of tech companies very early on fire massive numbers of people. And were they replaced
[42:32.160 --> 42:37.760] adequately? Well, we don't know. Rarely, if ever, have the fortunes of the world economy depended
[42:37.760 --> 42:43.760] so precariously on the judgment of a small cluster of men, the bosses of Meta, Alphabet,
[42:43.760 --> 42:50.960] Microsoft, Apple, X, Amazon, and others who are chasing the crock of gold at the end of the AI
[42:50.960 --> 42:58.800] rainbow. Well, again, even in that metaphor, we can always go back to gold at the end of the
[42:58.800 --> 43:04.240] rainbow. You don't have to follow their rainbow to get to the gold. You can go to David Knight,
[43:04.240 --> 43:09.600] gold. Tech giants say this time is different. Unlike the dot com bubble, which is characterized
[43:09.600 --> 43:15.360] by lots of aspiring wing and a prayer enterprises of hardly any substance. The current investment
[43:15.360 --> 43:20.480] boom is substantially led by a small number of well-established cash rich mega companies,
[43:20.480 --> 43:26.720] easily capable of absorbing the new industry's heavy upfront cost. What's more, they claim AI
[43:26.720 --> 43:31.920] promises an economic miracle that will render current concerns about spiraling deficits and
[43:31.920 --> 43:38.160] fiscal black holes almost wholly irrelevant, with stellar growth fast eroding national debt piles.
[43:38.160 --> 43:43.120] And again, I think this is a naive take. George Gilder in his book, Life After Google,
[43:44.320 --> 43:51.920] suddenly wrote it, he was past 80. And he said, but I think I'm going to live to see Google going
[43:51.920 --> 43:58.000] down. And so I said, I certainly hope he's right. But who knows if it's to go down, it's going to
[43:58.000 --> 44:06.080] have to be a crash of this type of magnitude. And the fundamental flaw behind the technocracy
[44:06.640 --> 44:12.240] is that they believe that their technology, especially AI, AI robotics and nanotech,
[44:13.360 --> 44:21.840] all of the awful stuff, genetics included, they think that they are at the cusp of a
[44:22.480 --> 44:27.440] situation where there'll be so much resources that they just have to allocate it.
[44:27.440 --> 44:32.480] And they will be the ones to allocate it. And this is the same fantasy that Karl Marx had about
[44:32.480 --> 44:37.120] the Industrial Revolution. We're close scarcity. Yeah, that's right. That's why George Gilder
[44:37.120 --> 44:44.080] calls them neo-Marxist, because that's the fundamental conceit, flawed conceit of Marxism.
[44:44.080 --> 44:48.720] And these people have bought into that as well. And just like the communist bosses,
[44:49.360 --> 44:55.200] they're going to take everything. It's going to be true for them, but it's not going to be true for
[44:55.200 --> 45:01.200] us. Yeah. Back when I was hosting the show, so that's what I kept saying is just the AI doesn't
[45:01.200 --> 45:06.800] have to be capable of doing your job well. It just has to be capable enough that your boss
[45:06.800 --> 45:11.200] thinks that it's worthwhile. And fires you. They just have to look at it and say, all right,
[45:11.200 --> 45:15.280] the product is going to get worse. But is it going to get so much worse that we're going to lose
[45:15.280 --> 45:20.160] customers? How many customers are going to lose? How much are we saving? It just has to be the
[45:20.160 --> 45:25.680] right value proposition, the right risk versus reward analysis. Cost benefit analysis for them
[45:25.680 --> 45:31.280] is everything. If it makes them a little bit more money than it does keeping you on staff, they will
[45:31.280 --> 45:35.920] gut the entire program. They will make it borderline unusable, just so long as it keeps
[45:35.920 --> 45:40.720] making them more money. That's right. It's not as though they have any commitment to quality with
[45:40.720 --> 45:45.600] these things as we've seen with the constant intensification of everything. They'll fire a
[45:45.600 --> 45:55.360] billion Indians. That's right. Well, there's headline after headline talking about how Trump
[45:55.360 --> 46:03.280] triggered a crypto crash. Markets brace for chaos after Trump triggers a record-breaking
[46:03.280 --> 46:11.120] crypto crash. And the crypto carnage Trump tariff tape bomb triggers largest liquidation event
[46:11.120 --> 46:18.080] in history for crypto. This is a guy that's going to be so good for crypto. And of course,
[46:19.360 --> 46:22.480] he is going to be good, has been good for crypto and will be good for crypto.
[46:22.480 --> 46:29.200] The problem is that he's just bad for the economy in general. Again, it goes back to this tariff
[46:29.200 --> 46:33.920] thing, right? A bad decision, the way that he's running the tariff stuff on again, off again,
[46:33.920 --> 46:39.520] on again, off again, destroys everything. Even the industries that he's heavily trying to subsidize
[46:39.520 --> 46:44.880] and build up, he's destroying. And then we take industries that are already struggling for a number
[46:44.880 --> 46:50.480] of reasons, like farming. Are you in Texas? And are you tired of not being able to play blackjack,
[46:50.480 --> 46:55.920] roulette, and even craps? Well, guess what? I got the solution for you. spinquest.com. That's

[47:50.000 --> 47:54.480] And this all comes from our dear leader who has determined that he's going to arbitrarily
[47:54.480 --> 48:00.320] and capriciously make these decisions. And everybody's just laying down and letting him
[48:00.320 --> 48:05.440] do it. I can't, I can believe that Mike Johnson is going to let him do it. I just can't believe
[48:05.440 --> 48:10.880] that the courts are letting him do it. They're moving so excruciatingly slow. And that's the
[48:10.880 --> 48:14.240] key thing. And we're going to talk about this when we talk about, after the break,
[48:14.240 --> 48:19.280] we're going to talk about what's going on with the Trump apocalypse that he's so happy about.
[48:19.280 --> 48:27.760] You know, the meme Chicago apocalypse, the Chi apocalypse or whatever. He jumps in and does
[48:27.760 --> 48:33.680] these things. His mode of operation is to declare an emergency and then to say, because I have
[48:33.680 --> 48:39.760] declared an emergency, now I can do anything I want. And then to fake his authority until
[48:39.760 --> 48:43.840] somebody shuts him down because Congress isn't going to push back against him. And the Supreme
[48:43.840 --> 48:48.560] Court takes about a year before it can even put its pants on. Assuming that they're wearing pants
[48:48.560 --> 48:56.960] under the robe. But they don't do anything. And so he is faking it and making it without having any
[48:56.960 --> 49:06.880] authority on this. So, meanwhile, you have a question as to this crypto crash. An early
[49:06.880 --> 49:17.280] Bitcoin whale shorted $1.1 billion right before the tariffs and made $27 million on this. How
[49:17.280 --> 49:22.800] did he know that was going to happen? And so was there insider trading going on? Let me tell you,
[49:22.800 --> 49:27.680] when they crash the markets, when they crash the crypto markets, the stock markets and other
[49:27.680 --> 49:35.920] things, people like Lucky Lutnik and Lucky Donald are going to have some insider stuff that's going
[49:35.920 --> 49:40.640] on. They're going to know when they crater this stuff and they're going to make sure that they
[49:40.640 --> 49:48.400] come out on the other side. I saw some news late last night about a account that was created right
[49:48.400 --> 49:55.840] before all this happened that did a massive short. Going back to 9-11, same type of stuff.
[49:57.360 --> 50:02.000] And they got away with it. 9-11. They will get away with it this time, over and over again.
[50:02.720 --> 50:09.440] No doubt about it. So you create an account and then you crash the market and you create an account
[50:09.440 --> 50:16.960] and it shorts the Bitcoin and make $27 million just like that. There's also the fact that even if
[50:17.040 --> 50:20.960] someone weren't specifically doing this, like I think they are, with the sheer number of people
[50:20.960 --> 50:24.960] that have to be involved with the administration that know what's going on, someone is going to
[50:24.960 --> 50:30.720] tell somebody else. Someone is going to find out and they will make that play. So even if they're
[50:30.720 --> 50:35.520] not specifically going, hey, I got a tip for you. You need to do this. That's right. Someone is just
[50:35.520 --> 50:40.800] going, it'll disseminate. It'll reach somebody. And you'll do it in a plausibly deniable way.
[50:40.800 --> 50:44.800] Why not? Yeah, I just got lucky. What can I say? Sometimes you lose it all,
[50:44.800 --> 50:52.480] sometimes you make $160 million. Well, look at what this whale did. A 10-fold leveraged short
[50:53.040 --> 51:04.800] on 6,189 Bitcoin valued at $752.9 million with a liquidation price of $130,810 and a 12-time
[51:04.800 --> 51:12.160] leveraged short on Ethereum worth $353 million with a liquidation price of $4,500.
[51:13.040 --> 51:19.760] The timing sparked widespread speculation about insider knowledge with a trader doubling down
[51:19.760 --> 51:29.760] on the shorts just 30 minutes before Trump's tariff announcement. Nothing suspicious to see here.
[51:29.760 --> 51:35.040] The most corrupt administration perhaps we've ever had, certainly in terms of dollar amounts.
[51:36.080 --> 51:39.920] The Ulysses Grant administration can't hold a candle to this one.
[51:40.880 --> 51:47.120] But yeah, it is truly amazing what he's been able to do here. According to Onchain Enlist,
[51:47.520 --> 52:01.200] the whale approximately 90% of Bitcoin shorts completely exited Ethereum at the bottom of the
[52:01.200 --> 52:06.640] drop, pocketing between $190 million and $200 million in realized profits within a single day.
[52:07.440 --> 52:13.280] In case you didn't know, the Bitcoin whale crossed 90% of his Bitcoin short and fully closed
[52:13.360 --> 52:19.200] on his Ethereum short, making around $192 million profit in just one day.
[52:24.960 --> 52:32.400] Look on chain data. The trader began accumulating the short positions on October 9 by depositing
[52:32.400 --> 52:38.800] $80 million into hyperliquid, followed by additional deposits totaling tens of millions
[52:38.800 --> 52:44.880] throughout the week, leading up to the crash. The market collapse triggered over 1.6 million
[52:44.880 --> 52:50.800] liquidations in 24 hours, wiping out $20 billion in positions, according to CoinGlass data.
[52:52.000 --> 53:00.080] The liquidation figure floating around is fake, says MLM ABC. The real number is likely much
[53:00.080 --> 53:07.440] higher, somewhere in the $30 to $40 billion range. Long positions accounted for $17 billion of those
[53:07.440 --> 53:14.880] losses, while shorts contributed to $2.5 billion. Bitcoin and Ethereum led liquidations at $5 billion
[53:14.880 --> 53:23.680] and $4 billion respectively, followed by Solana at $2 billion and Ripple XRP at $708 million.
[53:24.240 --> 53:31.680] Hyperliquid saw the largest single liquidation, an Ethereum dollar position worth $203 million.
[53:32.080 --> 53:40.320] So again, when we look at the fraud that is possible with this stuff, and the other thing
[53:40.320 --> 53:45.440] is that immediately they can go back and put these numbers together. Why? Because all the
[53:45.440 --> 53:50.240] transactions are public for everybody to see. There's nothing encrypted about in crypto,
[53:50.240 --> 53:55.920] except for the handshaking when you process the transaction from what I understand. But the
[53:56.880 --> 54:02.240] blockchain itself is fully public, so all the records are there. People can piece this stuff
[54:02.240 --> 54:07.600] together immediately. That's how they immediately know that there's a whale there. With other forms
[54:07.600 --> 54:11.680] of investment, it takes a while to go back and get the records, and the records are not available
[54:11.680 --> 54:19.600] to the general public. This stuff is. So Trump better watch itself. It's pretty amazing,
[54:20.320 --> 54:24.160] so the massive fraud that is involved in all this stuff.
[54:24.960 --> 54:28.640] Well, we're going to take a quick break before we do, let's read some of the comments here.
[54:28.640 --> 54:32.880] That's right. ConThink. Thank you very much. We appreciate it. It says,
[54:32.880 --> 54:37.600] piece in the Middle East, now to Ukraine. And we still want the Epstein files. That's right.
[54:38.480 --> 54:42.560] Still got to turn those over. Yeah. And we'll see if that piece lasts though.
[54:43.200 --> 54:49.280] Yeah. Israel hasn't been known for keeping their peace agreements. They've been known for
[54:49.280 --> 54:53.760] breaking them and finding reasons to do so. Gard Goldsmith. Seriously though,
[54:53.760 --> 54:57.040] the Trump attacks are getting me to make a lot of changes in purchases.
[54:57.040 --> 55:01.200] I started buying extra canned goods a couple of weeks ago, but they don't carry Prince Albert
[55:01.200 --> 55:09.920] in my supermarket. Is that a canned food brand? I'm not up on my canned food brands, but if you
[55:09.920 --> 55:13.760] say they're good, I trust Gard's opinion. I'm thinking Prince Albert might be like,
[55:14.080 --> 55:21.520] I don't know. Is that chewing tobacco? What is that? Gard? Is that pipe? Put that in your pipe
[55:21.520 --> 55:25.120] and smoke it? I don't know. That's right. You got to stock up on nicotine and alcohol.
[55:25.120 --> 55:27.760] You lost us on that reference. I'll have to explain further.
[55:29.040 --> 55:33.840] Make sure you've got some bottle caps as well. You want all the potential currencies,
[55:33.840 --> 55:39.920] gold, silver, nicotine, and alcohol. Bulldog. I was just looking at Bitcoin. It dropped from
[55:39.920 --> 55:46.960] $125,000 to $114,000 today, and of course that's $125,000 to $114,000. Real Jason Barker,
[55:46.960 --> 55:50.800] just at my aunt's and her husband's family, just harvested their soybeans and have to sit on them
[55:50.800 --> 55:56.480] now to wait for someone who will buy. Oh, I'm sorry to hear that. Yeah, because the other thing
[55:56.480 --> 56:00.880] is not only is China not buying, but now there's a glut of soybean on the market, so the price for
[56:00.880 --> 56:08.320] soybean has dropped unfortunately for themself to anybody. Yeah. Mama C 1996.

[57:09.200 --> 57:13.520] Grand elevators have huge piles of soybeans. We'll see if they can sell them or not.
[57:13.520 --> 57:17.520] Yeah. Real Jason Barker, this is an attack on independent farmers to help Big
[57:17.520 --> 57:24.640] Agra snatch up farmland. I absolutely agree with that. You and I see this exactly the same way.
[57:24.640 --> 57:31.760] I think this is deliberate. And I think it's also Jason, I think it's also Jason Barker,
[57:31.760 --> 57:37.280] nice to storm. I think it is also a deliberate attack on all small and medium size manufacturers.
[57:37.280 --> 57:40.640] I mean, it's just been, it's been very difficult. If you're making something
[57:41.280 --> 57:47.040] at all here in America, Trump has cut the legs out from underneath you because you've
[57:47.040 --> 57:50.960] got to get some of the supplies from abroad and nobody knows what to do.
[57:51.600 --> 57:56.080] Are the tariffs going to be 20%? Are they going to be 50%? Are they going to drop
[57:56.080 --> 58:01.360] down below 20%? I don't know. So how do you jump into a market like that? Once you jump in,
[58:01.360 --> 58:05.360] the chances of you getting burned are huge. So everybody's sitting on the sidelines and they
[58:05.360 --> 58:10.400] can't afford to do anything. And the small to medium sized people out there have to compete
[58:10.400 --> 58:16.240] with these giant guys anyway. And so they can't raise their prices and they're swallowing these
[58:16.240 --> 58:22.640] tariffs when they go up on cost. And they can't do that indefinitely because they don't have an
[58:22.640 --> 58:28.800] infinite supply of capital like the big box retailers do on Wall Street. I mean, they operate
[58:28.800 --> 58:34.480] as if they were government that's running on fiat currency. They have fiat paper stock,
[58:35.120 --> 58:41.280] which allows them to put out a nice narrative and collect capital. But small and medium sized
[58:41.280 --> 58:46.080] businesses have to work on the reality of the free marketplace and Trump is killing them.
[58:46.080 --> 58:50.400] Absolutely killing him. Same thing he did five years ago, just a different way.
[58:51.440 --> 58:59.840] Steve Heves at SD Bullion Gold over $4,100. Rev 79.79 big shorts in the last Bitcoin crash.
[59:02.240 --> 59:04.080] Who would have thought that Trump would have big shorts?
[59:06.880 --> 59:11.360] Guard Goldsmith Bitcoin short sale setup that shook things early came from what appears to
[59:11.360 --> 59:15.280] be a political insider knowledge connection because they knew Trump would confirm his 100%
[59:15.280 --> 59:23.280] tariff on China. And there's always insider trading going on when it's these people involved.
[59:23.280 --> 59:29.840] Rev 79.79. Let me interject here. The insider trading is so rampant. That's why I don't bother
[59:29.840 --> 59:35.360] with the stock market and the insider trading on crypto is going to be that way as well.
[59:35.360 --> 59:40.560] Because the people like Lutnick and Besant and Trump that are all in on it, don't tell me that
[59:40.640 --> 59:45.600] that's not going to be manipulated insider trading just like the stock market is.
[59:45.600 --> 59:52.240] Yeah. Rev 79.79. Nothing is more stable than tangible assets in your hand like brass bullets.
[59:53.280 --> 01:00:00.320] That's right. Get yourself some brass, some lead. Tyler Robb 22. We farm and he's exactly right.
[01:00:00.320 --> 01:00:05.120] Commodity prices are in the tank. The real octo spook. Trump is sending long range missiles into
[01:00:05.120 --> 01:00:10.160] the Ukraine and American contractors are now arming them and they're being launched into Russia.
[01:00:10.160 --> 01:00:12.240] I think he deserves a peace prize for that, don't you?
[01:00:14.080 --> 01:00:19.280] I've been the best president on peace, possibly ever. Wally Walrus. My wolf pack gold is holding
[01:00:19.280 --> 01:00:24.400] its value. I've been stocking up on gold backs as well. Excited about the Texas gold backs coming
[01:00:24.400 --> 01:00:30.400] soon. Steve Epps. I just can't get into any crypto. I trust things that are in my hand.
[01:00:30.400 --> 01:00:35.760] I don't fault anyone in crypto. I just don't trust it. That's what I, like I said,
[01:00:35.760 --> 01:00:41.040] it's incredibly volatile just because of who invests in it. You've got some very,
[01:00:41.040 --> 01:00:45.840] very large major players like you saw this guy who's connected and knows when things are going
[01:00:45.840 --> 01:00:50.400] down and then you've got a bunch of other people that are just trying to have it go to the moon.
[01:00:50.400 --> 01:00:55.840] So they're just investing what they can when they can and they'll be forced to abandon their
[01:00:55.840 --> 01:00:58.880] position. Well, it's like the original stock market crash and the guy says,
[01:00:58.880 --> 01:01:06.400] um, one guy, I forget who it was that said it. So he knew the top of the market had been reached
[01:01:06.400 --> 01:01:11.600] when the shoeshine boys were talking about stock tips with each other. Because when it gets that
[01:01:11.600 --> 01:01:16.560] far into retail, then it's time to get out, you know, because there's always been an inside game.
[01:01:17.760 --> 01:01:22.560] We've got too many suckers in the market. Yeah. Yeah. We were the last fool. So
[01:01:23.360 --> 01:01:27.520] there's that old saying, you know, if you can't tell who the sucker at the table is,
[01:01:27.520 --> 01:01:34.480] it's you. I've never been able to identify the sucker. So I'm fairly confident it's always been
[01:01:34.480 --> 01:01:41.840] me. That's my experience. Bulldog. If silver goes up, everything silver is used in goes up as well,
[01:01:41.840 --> 01:01:45.840] or they can't get silver for production of everything. Manufacturing will have buyer
[01:01:45.840 --> 01:01:52.960] competition on silver. Wally Walrus, when all else fails, they take us to war. That's right. Yeah.
[01:01:52.960 --> 01:01:57.760] Gard Goldsmith, by the way, that Boston radio host calling Trump the peace president, oh man,
[01:01:57.760 --> 01:02:05.360] baston. What a peace president he is. Yeah, it just spells it with an I, as I say.
[01:02:06.960 --> 01:02:11.680] Bulldog. What if the government becomes a big buyer of silver along with manufacturing?
[01:02:12.400 --> 01:02:19.280] It's a possibility. Possibility. Russia. Well, yeah, silver is used extensively in solar panels
[01:02:19.280 --> 01:02:26.000] and some other things like that as well. It's like the copper stuff that they are. In the UK,
[01:02:26.000 --> 01:02:32.160] there's so much copper theft of these charging cables that it's completely destroying the
[01:02:32.160 --> 01:02:37.040] charging infrastructure, what little of it there was. Who knew that crackheads would be our last
[01:02:37.040 --> 01:02:43.040] line of defense against the technocracy. And the thing says that it's online and everything
[01:02:43.040 --> 01:02:47.360] is there, but then you get there and there's no cable because somebody cut it off to sell the
[01:02:47.360 --> 01:02:54.640] copper that's there. So they want the copper strands and you're stranded. 595. Bulldog. I
[01:02:54.640 --> 01:03:02.080] read that one. Nibiru 2029. Bitcoin is just a techno Ponzi scheme. Tunnel Lord 1337. The Bitcoin
[01:03:02.080 --> 01:03:06.240] bros should use some of their earnings and reinvest them into far more stable markets.
[01:03:06.240 --> 01:03:12.080] That does sound like good advice. Sounds like good advice to me. You somehow make it to the
[01:03:12.080 --> 01:03:17.040] moon on Bitcoin or one of these alt coins and get out and put it in something that is not going
[01:03:17.040 --> 01:03:21.760] to just crash for no reason. And 20 can help you do that without a fee. Exactly. It takes the Bitcoin
[01:03:21.760 --> 01:03:28.400] and it turns it into gold. David Knight dot gold. Nibiru 2029. 1929 will appear a time of plenty
[01:03:28.400 --> 01:03:35.680] compared to Trump's big beautiful economic implosion. Yeah. I certainly hope not. Audi MRR.
[01:03:35.680 --> 01:03:41.120] Trump is trying to turn country into perpetually military occupied American Gaza. Yes, I'm going
[01:03:41.120 --> 01:03:46.160] to talk about that coming up next. And of course, going back to Nibiru, no matter what happens,
[01:03:46.160 --> 01:03:51.680] God is in control of everything. So more than gold, more than silver, more than any investment,
[01:03:51.680 --> 01:03:58.320] whether it's bullets or food, you can trust in him always. He will always be there. The real
[01:03:58.320 --> 01:04:03.760] octo spook. And of course, I mean the gospel. Jesus Christ. He is who you need in your life.
[01:04:03.760 --> 01:04:13.120] Not just a general God. The real octo spook. Not just the man upstairs. I'm a big believer in the
[01:04:13.120 --> 01:04:19.040] man upstairs. Isn't that the man upstairs? Absolutely meaningless. China is the largest
[01:04:19.040 --> 01:04:24.400] mining slash producer of gold in the world. China is a clear winner here. Has 15% of all gold ever
[01:04:24.400 --> 01:04:29.280] mined in the world and increasing every day. Trump's tariffs, bankrupting Americans just doesn't seem
[01:04:29.280 --> 01:04:37.600] a good response against China. No, just like Biden weaponizing the financial system against Russia
[01:04:37.600 --> 01:04:41.600] confiscating their assets that they had parked in the financial system was a
[01:04:43.920 --> 01:04:49.440] self-inflicted wound that could be fatal for the economic system.
[01:04:51.360 --> 01:04:54.800] Not just because of Russia, but because everybody could see they can't trust
[01:04:54.800 --> 01:05:01.200] this financial system that's been politicized and weaponized. Nibiru 2029. Putin doesn't have to
[01:05:01.200 --> 01:05:05.520] worry about taking on Marx America directly. Trump will have sabotaged the nation long before
[01:05:05.520 --> 01:05:11.040] that day arrives. Bulldog. Oh, I got it. This is going to pop with bricks.
[01:05:13.600 --> 01:05:18.560] The market is incredibly unstable and all it needs is just a little push one way or the other.
[01:05:19.200 --> 01:05:25.360] Sylvia 19. Catherine Austin Fitz said crypto slash captured stable coin is pump and dump.
[01:05:25.360 --> 01:05:30.560] I agree. It's another good way to get the last of your money out of you.
[01:05:30.560 --> 01:05:33.840] It's Britsky. I don't know how they let me on this podcast, but while I'm here,
[01:05:33.840 --> 01:05:39.600] I might as well tell you the only place to play blackjack roulette and live craps in Texas is

[01:06:32.240 --> 01:06:36.160] constitutional conservative. I'm not going to buy anything because and Trump are pushing it.
[01:06:36.880 --> 01:06:42.400] Not on my watch. Christian constitutional conservative IQs Trump of insider trading
[01:06:42.400 --> 01:06:46.240] and Friday was a classic example. Markets hit all time highs. Then he announced his
[01:06:46.240 --> 01:06:52.960] harebrained tears. Markets plummeted. Yeah. Chevken three more years of destruction from Trump to go.
[01:06:53.040 --> 01:06:59.360] Oh boy. Buckle your seat belts. Bulldog. The fortune 500 companies are all maxed out in debt.
[01:06:59.360 --> 01:07:05.440] The stock book values are near zero. Real Jason Barker, the richest of the rich know what's coming
[01:07:05.440 --> 01:07:10.560] and are often driving it. Yeah. The real octo spoke here in Walmart. If you buy booze, everyone with
[01:07:10.560 --> 01:07:15.360] you has to show ID. Booze might be a great investment to Walmart is now a branch of the ATF.
[01:07:16.320 --> 01:07:21.760] That's right. You better start stocking up on everclear. Also can be used to disinfect
[01:07:21.760 --> 01:07:29.760] wounds if it comes down to it. Yeah. Pair ODs got stuck in retro video games. That's right. Invest
[01:07:29.760 --> 01:07:38.240] in Pokemon. Buy Pokemon now. Nintendo only goes up. It's going to the moon. It is amazing that
[01:07:38.240 --> 01:07:43.280] their prices are skyrocketing when you would think that collector's items would crash.
[01:07:44.640 --> 01:07:49.360] I think it's partially to do with how utterly ridiculous our society has become and how out
[01:07:49.360 --> 01:07:55.360] of touch a lot of people are. Yeah. We've lived in a time of plenty for so long that they don't
[01:07:55.360 --> 01:07:59.600] think. They haven't gotten the memo. Yeah. They don't think it can go bad so they're sitting there.
[01:07:59.600 --> 01:08:04.960] Oh, you know what's really going to hold its value? My Charizard. In a time of plenty,
[01:08:04.960 --> 01:08:11.600] in a time of excess, yes, your Charizard might continue to hold its $5,000, $10,000 value.
[01:08:11.600 --> 01:08:17.280] If the market collapses, no one is going to be buying your Charizard. Yeah. Or your baseball
[01:08:17.280 --> 01:08:21.280] cards or whatever. Yeah. It is crazy. My tulip bulbs.
[01:08:23.680 --> 01:08:26.640] I wonder if you could eat those tulip bulbs. I guess somebody did probably.
[01:08:27.200 --> 01:08:33.440] Well, there's a little bit of hope in all of this. Marjorie Taylor Greene is now torching
[01:08:33.440 --> 01:08:38.720] Trump's tariffs and his corruption at the same time. So she has seen the light and good for
[01:08:38.720 --> 01:08:45.440] her. She's developing a spine and getting integrity here just like Thomas Massey. She joined
[01:08:45.440 --> 01:08:49.440] Thomas Massey and has been very outspoken about this Epstein stuff. But she said,
[01:08:49.440 --> 01:08:54.560] this shouldn't be about helping your crypto donors. That's exactly what he has made it.
[01:08:55.520 --> 01:09:01.760] So she said that these are all attempts to enrich his crypto donors. She said this during a recent
[01:09:01.760 --> 01:09:08.320] conversation with comedian Tim Dillon. And I'm talking to major manufacturing companies that
[01:09:08.320 --> 01:09:13.840] are saying, we support the president. We support what he's trying, his long-term goals, but we
[01:09:13.840 --> 01:09:20.240] have a problem with these tariffs. Let me just say that the devil is not just in the details.
[01:09:20.240 --> 01:09:26.960] The devil is in the way that you achieve your goals, right? The end does not justify the means.
[01:09:26.960 --> 01:09:34.320] So we can agree with Trump on the end and we can adamantly and must adamantly oppose the means that
[01:09:34.320 --> 01:09:38.800] he's trying to accomplish with all of these things. Whether you're talking about the border and
[01:09:38.800 --> 01:09:45.920] immigration flood, or you're talking about the outflow of wealth and manufacturing out of this
[01:09:45.920 --> 01:09:51.680] country. In the first place, we don't want a centrally planned economy. And if we want a
[01:09:51.680 --> 01:09:57.600] centrally planned economy, he ain't the guy to do it. He bankrupted half a dozen casinos. So he's a
[01:09:57.600 --> 01:10:03.120] lucky loser, as the book said. And that got him so angry that he sued him for $15 billion because it
[01:10:03.120 --> 01:10:10.720] was spot on with the truth. She goes on to say, Marjorie Taylor Greene says, it shouldn't be about
[01:10:10.720 --> 01:10:17.120] helping your crypto donors or your AI donors, or welcoming in these people that hated you and spent
[01:10:17.120 --> 01:10:24.480] money trying to beat you. But all of a sudden, you're excited to come to the new Rose Garden
[01:10:24.560 --> 01:10:34.000] patio. That should not be the focus. Well, she's spot on. The focus is new ballroom in the Rose
[01:10:34.000 --> 01:10:38.800] Garden patio, right? Even when somebody asks about Charlie Keating. Well, yeah, that's really bad.
[01:10:38.800 --> 01:10:44.960] But hey, I tell you about my new ballroom plans that are here. Very, very sad. What's not sad?
[01:10:44.960 --> 01:10:50.240] My ballroom. The best ballroom. Gonna be great. She said the focus should be on the people that
[01:10:50.240 --> 01:10:57.280] showed up at the rallies, who stood there for 18 hours trying to get in, in the rain, in the cold,
[01:10:57.280 --> 01:11:01.920] in the 100 degree heat. For those people, those are the ones that I care about. Those are the
[01:11:01.920 --> 01:11:07.680] ones that voted for not only President Trump, but for every single Republican and gave us power.
[01:11:07.680 --> 01:11:13.440] I don't think those people are being served. Well, she's exactly right. These are the kind of people
[01:11:14.160 --> 01:11:22.480] who had warrants served on them after the first Trump term. As I said, that was the biggest
[01:11:22.480 --> 01:11:28.400] betrayal of his own supporters with Alex Jones and Stop the Steal and his Save America grift,
[01:11:28.400 --> 01:11:35.120] where he made $250 million, then set these people up. And he just was tweeting about this and says,
[01:11:35.120 --> 01:11:39.920] there has to be some kind of a payback for this. And people said, wait a minute, you realize you
[01:11:39.920 --> 01:11:43.760] were the president when that happened. He's talking about Biden as if Biden pulled off
[01:11:43.760 --> 01:11:50.880] January the 6th. Biden pulled off the punishment that was clearly coming. And not to say that any
[01:11:50.880 --> 01:11:57.040] of it was justified. But Trump left his own supporters, not only did he lure them in,
[01:11:57.840 --> 01:12:06.400] fleece them of their money, and then lure them into this setup, but he left them to be punished
[01:12:06.400 --> 01:12:11.760] by Biden, refusing to pardon them before he left. He was too busy pardoning the crooks
[01:12:12.320 --> 01:12:19.280] associated with Jared Kushner's family. And so she's very strong, her statements against it,
[01:12:19.280 --> 01:12:23.200] and she's 100% right. We're going to take a quick break, folks, and we'll be right back.
[01:12:37.200 --> 01:12:42.560] As the young gentleman supposes, the issue involved here is one of monopoly.
[01:12:47.840 --> 01:12:51.760] Today, the British government will monopolize the sale of tea in our country.
[01:12:52.400 --> 01:12:53.760] Tomorrow, it will be something else.
[01:13:36.400 --> 01:13:50.240] Liberty, it's your move. You're listening to the David Knight Show.
[01:13:53.440 --> 01:13:59.760] Hello, it's me, Vladimir Zelensky. I'm so tired of wearing these same t-shirts everywhere for years.
[01:13:59.760 --> 01:14:06.000] You'd think with all the billions I've skimmed off America, I could dress better. And I could
[01:14:06.400 --> 01:14:12.080] if only David Knight would send me one of his beautiful gray MacGuffin hoodies or a new black
[01:14:12.080 --> 01:14:19.200] t-shirt with the MacGuffin logo in blue. But he told me to get lost. Maybe one of you American
[01:14:19.200 --> 01:14:24.960] suckers can buy me some at the David Knight Show dot com. You should be able to buy me several
[01:14:24.960 --> 01:14:31.680] hundred. Those amazing sand colored microphone hoodies are so beautiful. I'd wear something other
[01:14:31.680 --> 01:14:38.160] than green military cosplay to my various galas and social events. If you want to save on shipping,
[01:14:38.160 --> 01:14:42.960] just put it in the next package of bombs and missiles coming from the USA.

[01:15:59.760 --> 01:16:06.480] story. Well, as I said, beginning of the program, one of the things that concerns me is that Trump
[01:16:06.480 --> 01:16:11.840] supporters, I don't know if it's Trump supporters or if it's Trump bots, but they're using Open AI's
[01:16:11.840 --> 01:16:18.400] Sora to generate AI videos of soldiers assaulting protesters because they want this. And again,
[01:16:18.400 --> 01:16:22.640] I don't know how much of this is influencers. I don't know how much of this is mob mentality
[01:16:23.200 --> 01:16:29.120] and how much of it are bots that are controlled by the Trump people, but it thoroughly disgusted me.
[01:16:29.120 --> 01:16:35.920] I'm going to show you one of these things. Videos created using Open AI's Sora to depict soldiers
[01:16:35.920 --> 01:16:42.720] assaulting protesters, fueling a narrative of widespread violence. However, the violent crime
[01:16:42.720 --> 01:16:50.000] in the US is at its lowest in decades in contradiction of this narrative. So here's what
[01:16:50.000 --> 01:16:57.440] it looks like. This is what I call it, instead of martial law, I call it MAGA law because MAGA
[01:16:57.440 --> 01:17:03.120] doesn't have any respect for law, for constitution. They know and care as little about the law and
[01:17:03.120 --> 01:17:09.760] constitution due process as they know and care about politics and about Trump's personal life.
[01:17:09.760 --> 01:17:14.320] So here's the kind of garbage AI slop these people are putting out to cheer.
[01:17:33.680 --> 01:17:38.240] Yeah, these people reply and say, that was beautiful. You think that's beautiful?
[01:17:38.240 --> 01:17:42.800] Wait till they do it to you. And before you ask, I voted for this.
[01:17:44.240 --> 01:17:50.320] That's why I pose MAGA. I have absolutely nothing to say to these people. They are clueless,
[01:17:50.320 --> 01:17:55.760] useful idiots. To take Trump's word for it, America's cities are in reigns, forcing him
[01:17:55.760 --> 01:18:01.120] to deploy federal troops to Portland, DC and Memphis. But no one seems to be able to find
[01:18:01.120 --> 01:18:06.320] any real evidence of the mass riots and the anarchist violence that Trump and his supporters
[01:18:06.320 --> 01:18:11.040] insist is destroying the nation. Luckily for them, that problem is easily solved with a
[01:18:11.040 --> 01:18:17.440] little help from AI. So hey, if it's not there for real, you can just create a fantasy world
[01:18:17.440 --> 01:18:24.160] to support what Trump is saying. So this was first flagged by Gizmodo, which reported a concerning
[01:18:24.160 --> 01:18:31.040] rise in AI generated pro-Trump propaganda since release of OpenAI's Sora 2, which is capable of
[01:18:31.040 --> 01:18:36.560] spinning out short photorealistic clips, along with sound as well as you noticed.
[01:18:37.440 --> 01:18:43.200] Gizmodo notes how one clip showing a protester harassing a U.S. National Guardsman before
[01:18:43.200 --> 01:18:49.200] getting pepper sprayed went viral on Instagram, notching nearly one and a half million likes.
[01:18:49.200 --> 01:18:55.680] One and a half million likes. I detest that. I absolutely detest that. In the first place,
[01:18:55.680 --> 01:19:00.160] I don't care what the person is saying. You know, they have them saying something, you know,
[01:19:00.160 --> 01:19:07.680] that was no nachos, no cheese or something. What was it? No queso. No queso, no cheese or something.
[01:19:07.680 --> 01:19:14.400] Yeah. Anyway, but whatever they're saying to that National Guardsman, that does not give him the
[01:19:14.400 --> 01:19:20.560] right to pepper spray them in the face. When you support that, then what you're saying is I don't
[01:19:20.560 --> 01:19:26.000] like your speech. Your speech is hateful. Your speech is violence. And the MAGA people are no
[01:19:26.000 --> 01:19:29.840] different from the left folks. We don't want to have anything to do with either of those sides.
[01:19:31.120 --> 01:19:36.160] They are a mirror image of each other. They come at it from different directions. It's like
[01:19:36.160 --> 01:19:41.840] the Nazi fascists versus the Soviet communists. You don't want to be on either side. They're both
[01:19:41.840 --> 01:19:46.960] horrible. And they're just coming at it with a different justification. So had one and a half
[01:19:46.960 --> 01:19:53.520] million likes, 40 million views. Can you imagine that liking that? And the comments are making it
[01:19:53.520 --> 01:20:02.080] clear. Best video I saw today. Let's see more of these scumbags being taken down. I love a feel
[01:20:02.080 --> 01:20:09.440] good video like this. Another one, another poster on X uploaded an AI generated video montage of
[01:20:09.440 --> 01:20:14.400] various protesters hollering, hollering in the police officer's faces. No queso, no cheese,
[01:20:14.400 --> 01:20:21.040] which I just showed you there. And again, I voted for this, said one of them. Well, I saw that and
[01:20:21.040 --> 01:20:26.960] that disgusted me. So here is my take on all this stuff. If I can find it. Let's see. Here it is.
[01:20:28.800 --> 01:20:34.400] There's Trump's own meme. Sees himself as Robert DeWall in the apocalypse.
[01:20:34.400 --> 01:20:39.360] This is the end, beautiful friend.
[01:20:43.680 --> 01:20:51.760] This is the end, my only friend. Yeah, burn the constitution. Burn everything else.
[01:20:51.760 --> 01:21:13.520] Yeah, this is what Trump wants. That was his meme that started with.
[01:21:13.520 --> 01:21:27.760] This is going to be a major part for some of the people in this room. That's a war too. It's a war
[01:21:27.760 --> 01:21:33.120] from within. I told Pete we should use some of these dangerous cities as training grounds for
[01:21:33.120 --> 01:21:37.680] military. Yeah, that's what the military is going to look like right there.
[01:22:03.760 --> 01:22:07.760] Oh, look, chicken goats. That must be Gates's farm.
[01:22:10.240 --> 01:22:12.160] The genetic modification has gotten wild.
[01:22:22.800 --> 01:22:26.800] Yeah, chicken goats. Now, do they lay eggs or give wool or both? How about that?
[01:22:26.960 --> 01:22:36.880] Yeah. So they're drumming up consent and they've got an army of people using AI to drum this up
[01:22:36.880 --> 01:22:44.160] and people love that. It's red meat to them. So a campaign that Trump happily calls a war,
[01:22:44.800 --> 01:22:51.520] a war within. This is from Mediaite, which is a left wing in opposition to Trump.
[01:22:52.400 --> 01:22:59.040] The Quiet Coup, how Trump is undermining democracy from within. America is not drifting
[01:22:59.040 --> 01:23:04.480] towards authoritarianism. It has already arrived quietly, bureaucratically, almost politely.
[01:23:05.920 --> 01:23:10.240] And it's what the Trump supporters want. It's what they voted for. It really is what they voted for.
[01:23:11.120 --> 01:23:17.680] After 2020, don't tell me that the people who voted for Trump, the influencers who supported
[01:23:17.680 --> 01:23:25.200] him, didn't want this because he did it already. The crowds, the chants, the carnival of grievance.
[01:23:25.200 --> 01:23:30.240] That was just act one. Act two, the show has moved backstage and the footlights are off.
[01:23:30.880 --> 01:23:36.160] The machinery humps and Trump, who once ruled by impulse, now governs through the design.
[01:23:36.160 --> 01:23:40.800] Well, the question is, we're going to talk about this in just a second. Who's design? Is it his?
[01:23:40.800 --> 01:23:46.320] Is it Peter Thiel's? Is it Curtis Yarvin? Is it the technocracy's design or the UN?
[01:23:47.760 --> 01:23:53.040] He's learned how to run it. After two terms of cultural conditioning, the American public has
[01:23:53.040 --> 01:24:01.200] been anesthetized by the permanent adrenaline of outrage. Every assault on legal norms and
[01:24:01.200 --> 01:24:07.440] constitutional norms lands as deja vu. Now he writes things like democratic norms. America is
[01:24:07.440 --> 01:24:13.360] not a democracy. It's a republic. It's a constitutional republic with rules of law. That's what's being
[01:24:13.360 --> 01:24:18.960] attacked here. He's not doing anything with the elections. What's being attacked is the
[01:24:18.960 --> 01:24:24.560] constitution, folks. That's what the left doesn't see. What once felt like a scandal
[01:24:25.360 --> 01:24:31.840] now feels like weather because it just keeps coming. The central project of Trump's second term is not
[01:24:31.840 --> 01:24:38.240] ideological but architectural, the systematic capture of the federal government. Very much like
[01:24:38.240 --> 01:24:44.000] what FDR did in the last fourth turning. That's exactly what he's doing. And yet the difference is
[01:24:44.000 --> 01:24:50.720] as much as FDR changed things, he had opposition within his own party saying, we agree with where
[01:24:50.720 --> 01:24:55.680] you want to go, but the way you're doing it, we don't support. Because remember, this is back at
[01:24:55.680 --> 01:25:00.160] a time when if they wanted to prohibit something like alcohol, they had enough respect for the
[01:25:00.160 --> 01:25:04.320] constitution and the rule of law that they would pass a constitutional amendment. No such thing exists
[01:25:04.880 --> 01:25:11.360] anymore. Nobody cares about the rule of law. So Russ Voigt, the OMB director,
[01:25:12.640 --> 01:25:17.200] is basically the chief mechanic of this new order. He invoked emergency powers to lay off
[01:25:17.200 --> 01:25:22.320] thousands of civil servants. They're very friendly and mediaite towards the bureaucrats.
[01:25:23.360 --> 01:25:27.120] Entire agencies were hollowed out under the pretense of fiscal discipline.
[01:25:27.120 --> 01:25:33.360] Inspectors, general, ethics officers, policy staffers, those dull, indispensable sentinels
[01:25:33.360 --> 01:25:41.200] of accountability were shown the door. I don't see them as sentinels of accountability. But
[01:25:41.200 --> 01:25:47.600] what I think is dangerous here, and I said this when Elon Musk was using Doge to fire people
[01:25:47.600 --> 01:25:54.720] and replace them with AI, what they're removing is the human factor. And when you move the human
[01:25:54.720 --> 01:26:01.760] factor and you automate the machinery of this, you are maximizing governance. You may be minimizing
[01:26:01.760 --> 01:26:06.960] human headcount and government. And you may be getting a lot of get rid of a lot of people that
[01:26:07.760 --> 01:26:13.120] the rest of us don't like the DMV or the federal equivalents of it in so many different areas of
[01:26:13.120 --> 01:26:20.080] our life. But you're still at some level dealing with humans. And you may find somebody who has
[01:26:20.720 --> 01:26:26.480] sympathy for what is happening to you, what they're doing to you. And they may also blow the whistle
[01:26:27.120 --> 01:26:30.880] when they see things that are being done wrong. That is not going to happen
[01:26:31.440 --> 01:26:35.920] once they automate it with AI. That's the key issue here. That's total governance.
[01:26:36.640 --> 01:26:40.880] And it removes the human factor. It's the same reason that we talk about autonomous killing
[01:26:40.880 --> 01:26:48.400] machines, right? We can have these undeclared, unjustified wars all the time. But what happens
[01:26:48.400 --> 01:26:52.720] is when you got real soldiers out there, sometimes they'll come back and they'll tell you what's
[01:26:52.720 --> 01:26:57.680] really going on. Some of them will. And that can be used to turn things around. Or maybe they won't
[01:26:57.680 --> 01:27:03.440] follow the orders that they're given. That's not the case when you've got robotic machines that
[01:27:03.440 --> 01:27:07.600] are going to be doing the killing. And that's not going to be the case when you've got robotic
[01:27:07.600 --> 01:27:12.320] machines that are going to be doing the bureaucratic functions that the federal government doesn't have
[01:27:12.320 --> 01:27:18.960] any authority for in the first place. So the Project 2025's design was to replace neutral
[01:27:18.960 --> 01:27:25.760] expertise with partisan obedience, right? It's mediaite. Well, I disagree. I don't think that
[01:27:27.040 --> 01:27:31.520] the bureaucracy was expertise. Or neutral for that matter.
[01:27:31.520 --> 01:27:38.560] Or neutral, yeah. It was neutral to them because they were on the same side. But I didn't see
[01:27:38.560 --> 01:27:44.400] expertise at all in that. But it is the demolition, and he got this right, the demolition
[01:27:44.400 --> 01:27:49.520] of the constitutional balance between Congress and the executive, between law and loyalty.
[01:27:50.240 --> 01:27:55.760] Power now emanates not from deliberation, but from decree. And I've said this myself
[01:27:56.400 --> 01:28:00.560] from the very beginning. This is about setting up an autocracy, a dictatorship.
[01:28:00.560 --> 01:28:04.640] He declares the emergency and then declares, now that it's an emergency, I can do whatever I want.
[01:28:05.840 --> 01:28:10.880] It's just a little two-step formality there. That's nonsense. Trump's deployment of federal
[01:28:10.880 --> 01:28:16.960] forces in cities like Washington, Chicago, and Portland under the fiction of crime emergencies
[01:28:16.960 --> 01:28:21.120] has normalized the site of domestic militarization. That's a key part of this.
[01:28:21.680 --> 01:28:29.680] This is just like he did with the lockdown stuff, right? This is normalizing people for that,
[01:28:29.680 --> 01:28:35.520] just like he did with the stimulus checks. That was normalizing UBI. This is normalizing the
[01:28:35.520 --> 01:28:44.400] military on the streets. That is Trump's purpose as a Trump precedent. Courts hesitate, Congress
[01:28:44.400 --> 01:28:49.600] sputters, and the White House learns a lesson that if you act as though you have the authority,
[01:28:49.600 --> 01:28:55.440] eventually you do. You can fake the authority until you make the authority. None of this looks
[01:28:55.440 --> 01:29:00.800] like a coup. It looks like administration, and that's what makes it so effective. The press,
[01:29:00.800 --> 01:29:05.440] the courts, elections are still there, yet their cumulative weight feels diminished
[01:29:06.080 --> 01:29:12.320] like background institutions orbiting a single gravitational center. You don't need to destroy
[01:29:12.320 --> 01:29:17.680] a democracy to control it. You only need to occupy it from within. Keep the noise loud,
[01:29:17.680 --> 01:29:24.640] keep the lights bright, and the public too weary to parse the details. You keep a mob of fanatical
[01:29:24.640 --> 01:29:31.040] supporters there. This is, MAGA is his brown shirts that are out there telling, keeping people
[01:29:31.040 --> 01:29:36.640] in line, keeping the politicians in line. They're totally afraid of this guy. That's what's really
[01:29:36.640 --> 01:29:43.600] concerning. Governance becomes spectacle, and spectacle becomes governance, and the population
[01:29:43.600 --> 01:29:49.680] learns to confuse fatigue with normalcy. And to what end? Some may say that this is merely a
[01:29:49.680 --> 01:29:55.200] political policy disagreement, that Trump favors smaller government, fewer regulations,
[01:29:55.200 --> 01:30:00.240] and a market-friendly redistribution of resources. But the danger is not that the administration
[01:30:00.240 --> 01:30:07.600] pursues conservative goals. It is how these policies are implemented through emergency powers,
[01:30:07.600 --> 01:30:11.360] through bureaucratic purges, and through centralized control.

[01:31:12.960 --> 01:31:19.040] Being wielded to consolidate power and wealth, to bypass oversight, and to weaken the structural
[01:31:19.040 --> 01:31:24.400] checks that make the American Republic resilient. And that's what Marjorie Taylor Greene was saying.
[01:31:24.400 --> 01:31:30.640] She said this shouldn't be run for the benefit of your donors. And that's exactly what it's about.
[01:31:30.640 --> 01:31:36.560] It's about consolidating power for Trump, and consolidating wealth for Trump and his donors.
[01:31:38.560 --> 01:31:44.720] This is destabilization. It is weaponizing government to serve extreme wealth accumulation.
[01:31:45.280 --> 01:31:51.440] The logical consequences of such systemic enrichment is unrest. And if left unchecked,
[01:31:51.440 --> 01:31:56.160] it may provoke revolutionary pressures. The stakes are nothing less than the preservation
[01:31:56.160 --> 01:32:03.040] of the republic and the rule of law. By weakening the civil service, militarizing urban centers,
[01:32:03.040 --> 01:32:07.440] and consolidating power within the executive branch, Trump is laying the groundwork for a
[01:32:07.440 --> 01:32:15.600] presidency that is not merely strong, but a total fusion of state, party, and personal enrichment.
[01:32:16.560 --> 01:32:21.920] The public's focus on daily scandals obscures the more insidious threats to democracy unfolding
[01:32:21.920 --> 01:32:27.840] behind the scenes. And yes, Trump is great at providing one scandal after the other, isn't he?
[01:32:29.360 --> 01:32:33.440] David Carr once wrote that journalism's purpose was to quote, name the thing.
[01:32:33.440 --> 01:32:41.200] Well, the thing is now authoritarianism, cloaked in legality, spectacle, and distraction. And while
[01:32:41.200 --> 01:32:45.920] the noise keeps rolling, the country risks awakening too late to the magnitude of what has
[01:32:45.920 --> 01:32:53.360] been quietly stolen. And we know what is being stolen. Even now, Karl Rove comes in, and of course,
[01:32:53.360 --> 01:32:59.040] he was George W. Bush's political analyst. That's the way he looked at this. So he looks at the polls.
[01:33:00.000 --> 01:33:07.280] And he said over the weekend on Fox News, he said that this latest National Guard gambit
[01:33:07.280 --> 01:33:13.440] is bad policies, that it is a loser. He said, he warned Trump that his effort to deploy the
[01:33:13.440 --> 01:33:18.560] National Guard to Portland and Chicago is bad politics. During the appearance on the journal
[01:33:18.560 --> 01:33:25.200] editorial report on Saturday, Wall Street Journal, and Paul Gigo, who was interviewing him. And so
[01:33:26.160 --> 01:33:31.920] he asked Rove about this. He said, if you take a look at the Reuters poll, 58%
[01:33:32.720 --> 01:33:37.680] of those surveyed said they believe that you should send troops only for external threats.
[01:33:38.400 --> 01:33:47.280] However, the Republicans are 51%, Democrats 72%, and independents 53%. But if you look deeper,
[01:33:47.280 --> 01:33:52.320] there's another question, which was, should the president send troops even if a governor objects?
[01:33:53.280 --> 01:34:05.920] That was 37% yes, 48% no. And it was 70 to 18 among Republicans. And it was 13 to 79 among Democrats,
[01:34:05.920 --> 01:34:12.880] and 28 to 50 among independents. So we don't like him. We believe that he shouldn't deploy.
[01:34:12.880 --> 01:34:19.600] If a governor objects, though, the partisanship seems starts to be felt. Republicans say,
[01:34:20.000 --> 01:34:26.960] yeah, override the governor. Democrats say no, and independents tend to side with the Democrat
[01:34:26.960 --> 01:34:31.840] voters and say, no, I don't think that should happen. Rove said, this ultimately, I think,
[01:34:31.840 --> 01:34:37.440] will tend to be a loser if the question is, should the president do this or should he have done it?
[01:34:37.920 --> 01:34:41.680] On the other hand, it might get him a slight improvement among the people saying,
[01:34:42.400 --> 01:34:47.360] who are concerned about crime and saying, well, at least he's taking action. But overall,
[01:34:48.320 --> 01:34:52.640] I think this is going to end up being a loser for the president. I'm not so sure that he's got that
[01:34:52.640 --> 01:34:58.240] right. Because as I said, I think, assuming that stuff is coming from some people on his base,
[01:34:58.240 --> 01:35:04.880] I would assume that's probably coming from his meme factory. You know that the Republicans and
[01:35:04.880 --> 01:35:09.920] the people around Trump are working on that very hard. And I think we're seeing a lot of
[01:35:11.200 --> 01:35:17.120] things like that cheering police brutality. And that is that video there was police brutality.
[01:35:17.680 --> 01:35:22.960] Regardless of what you say to the police, you have a right to peacefully redress your grievances,
[01:35:22.960 --> 01:35:28.640] and they don't have a right to retaliate to you. That is the wrong thing for the government to do.
[01:35:28.640 --> 01:35:33.200] On January the 6th, that's what happened. A lot of people said, well, the police kicked this off. We
[01:35:33.200 --> 01:35:38.640] were having a protest and they started attacking people. Yeah, they understood it when it happened
[01:35:38.640 --> 01:35:42.480] to them, but only when it happens to them do they understand it. They don't understand the principle
[01:35:42.480 --> 01:35:48.320] involved, because immediately they turn around and support this. Because regardless of who
[01:35:48.320 --> 01:35:54.240] created that, you had one and a half million people who liked that. He's making the case,
[01:35:54.240 --> 01:35:58.080] and certainly his lawyers are in court, that these National Guard troops are there to protect
[01:35:58.080 --> 01:36:03.520] federal buildings and to protect the ICE agents that are doing their job. Because you've got the
[01:36:03.520 --> 01:36:08.800] governor and the mayor, the governor of Illinois, the mayor of Chicago, saying we're not going to
[01:36:08.800 --> 01:36:14.400] cooperate with ICE. So he says, I mean, there's a kind of logic to what he's doing to try to protect
[01:36:14.400 --> 01:36:26.080] these agents. That's Paul Gigo saying that to Rogue. Rogue. Carl Rove. I called him Carl Rogue
[01:36:26.080 --> 01:36:35.920] for so long. Anyway, but the reality is that the principle that local officials do not have to
[01:36:35.920 --> 01:36:41.120] cooperate with the federal government has been endorsed by the Supreme Court. Whether or not they
[01:36:41.120 --> 01:36:46.880] endorsed it or not, that is constitutional. We have a separation of powers. And what the
[01:36:46.880 --> 01:36:53.440] Trump administration is now doing is treating that established principle of non-cooperation,
[01:36:53.440 --> 01:37:00.400] that principle of nullification, which are really part of the 10th Amendment. The Trump administration
[01:37:00.400 --> 01:37:05.360] is now treating that as if that were an insurrection, as if that were somehow a
[01:37:05.360 --> 01:37:10.720] secession or something. So always in the past, we've said, yeah, like Marjorie Taylor Greene said,
[01:37:10.720 --> 01:37:14.240] I think we need a national divorce. And I said, well, the problem is you're married to an abusive
[01:37:14.240 --> 01:37:19.040] husband, the federal government. And so in the past, if you wanted to declare that you were
[01:37:19.040 --> 01:37:25.760] independent and have a divorce, you are inviting attack from the federal government. Now Trump has
[01:37:25.760 --> 01:37:30.560] moved the needle so that if you just don't obey this abusive husband and everything, he's got a
[01:37:30.560 --> 01:37:38.080] right to beat you. That's the reality of this. And so Rove says, well, look, he has the authority
[01:37:38.080 --> 01:37:41.600] to deploy the National Guard to protect federal facilities. And I think the public though is going
[01:37:41.600 --> 01:37:47.040] to look at this and make a decision as to whether or not what they're seeing during the summer of
[01:37:47.040 --> 01:37:52.720] 2020 and riots in Portland, nightly attacks on the federal courthouse, or is this going to be,
[01:37:52.960 --> 01:37:58.080] protesters outside a facility in suburban Chicago? Let me just say, he says, all right,
[01:37:58.080 --> 01:38:02.560] so we don't know what happened in 2020. There were a lot of riots. Now the left called it mostly
[01:38:02.560 --> 01:38:06.960] peaceful, but they're burning stuff up. It was really out of control. And a lot of people were
[01:38:06.960 --> 01:38:12.800] calling on Trump to do something about it then, and he did nothing. So now we have something that
[01:38:12.800 --> 01:38:18.720] is much, much, there's nothing at all going on like that. This is just the usual stuff
[01:38:19.360 --> 01:38:25.680] in Chicago or these big cities, usual crime, and that people there are content to live with
[01:38:25.680 --> 01:38:31.120] because they don't want to change the government there or move out. So that has been the status
[01:38:31.120 --> 01:38:36.000] quo for quite some time. It's not an emergency. Nothing has changed. And you don't have the kind
[01:38:36.000 --> 01:38:42.960] of riots that we did in the summer of 2020 when Trump did nothing. So how could he argue that this
[01:38:42.960 --> 01:38:47.680] is an emergency that requires the federal government to do something about it? His own
[01:38:49.040 --> 01:38:55.600] experiences on administration before this argues against his own actions that he's doing here.
[01:38:56.400 --> 01:39:00.240] So he says, if it heats up, yeah, the president's going to look better. But if it doesn't heat up,
[01:39:00.240 --> 01:39:07.040] if it really is just sort of meeting the needs of protecting the federal facilities,
[01:39:07.040 --> 01:39:12.000] I'm not certain that that's going to work to his advantage. We saw this a little bit in Portland
[01:39:12.000 --> 01:39:15.040] where the president was asked about, and he said, well, you know, I am hearing that there
[01:39:15.040 --> 01:39:19.360] are fires and riots and lots of violence every night. I don't know where he's getting that
[01:39:20.000 --> 01:39:24.400] because that's not what we're seeing on Portland TV. Maybe he's looking at these
[01:39:26.720 --> 01:39:32.880] Sora 2 AI stuff that people are creating. Maybe that's the reality.
[01:39:32.880 --> 01:39:36.400] They're feeding Trump a nonstop diet of fake videos.
[01:39:37.280 --> 01:39:43.360] So Reason is looking at the legality of this insurrection act, regardless of whether or not
[01:39:44.080 --> 01:39:48.160] they kind of skip over the fundamental question as to whether or not that's constitutional.
[01:39:48.720 --> 01:39:53.200] But they just assume that that's a legitimate thing. Even if it were a legitimate thing,
[01:39:53.840 --> 01:39:58.640] Trump is using it illegitimately. That's how far down the rabbit hole we've gone down the drain,
[01:39:58.640 --> 01:40:06.240] I should say. He can resort to an alarmingly broad statue that gives him more discretion.
[01:40:06.880 --> 01:40:10.640] Even if the courts tried to force limits on what he's doing with the military deployment.
[01:40:11.280 --> 01:40:15.760] On Thursday, a federal judge temporarily blocked Trump's deployment of National Guard troops in
[01:40:15.760 --> 01:40:21.120] Chicago, saying there's no credible evidence that conditions there meet the terms of the statute on
[01:40:21.120 --> 01:40:25.840] which he was relying. That decision came less than a week after another federal judge issued a
[01:40:25.840 --> 01:40:31.200] temporary restraining order against a similar deployment in Portland. Meanwhile, at a hearing
[01:40:31.200 --> 01:40:36.640] on Thursday, in the latter case, the panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
[01:40:36.640 --> 01:40:43.840] Court seemed inclined to allow the Portland deployment. That's not good. That's especially
[01:40:43.840 --> 01:40:48.800] not good because this is the Ninth Circuit Court. They typically are on the left, and
[01:40:49.600 --> 01:40:52.880] of course they're politicized. It's not just their perspective on things.
[01:40:53.680 --> 01:41:03.280] The law he is invoking, which is U.S. Code 12406, says the president may call into federal service
[01:41:03.280 --> 01:41:08.560] members and units of the National Guard of any state in response to a foreign invasion,
[01:41:08.560 --> 01:41:13.680] an actual or incipient rebellion against the federal government, or conditions in which he
[01:41:13.680 --> 01:41:21.440] is unable to enforce federal law with regular forces. Trump says that those last two conditions
[01:41:21.440 --> 01:41:27.840] exist in Portland and in Chicago, but if the courts get in Trump's way, he can always resort
[01:41:27.840 --> 01:41:35.760] to the alarmingly broad Insurrection Act. Again, it's an act. It's not, you know, any act or laws
[01:41:35.760 --> 01:41:42.960] are put in by the Congress can be in violation of the Constitution, and I think it is in violation
[01:41:42.960 --> 01:41:47.280] of the Tenth Amendment. It gives them more discretion to deploy the military for law
[01:41:47.280 --> 01:41:53.680] enforcement purposes. Trump says the courts have no role at all in reviewing his determination.
[01:41:54.640 --> 01:41:58.400] That would leave him free to deploy the National Guard wherever and whenever he likes, regardless
[01:41:58.400 --> 01:42:03.360] of the constraints imposed by Congress. I remember when Al Gore made the statement,
[01:42:03.360 --> 01:42:08.560] there's no controlling legal authority here, and that was borderline taken out of context,
[01:42:08.560 --> 01:42:15.120] but it really was what he believed. But this is literally what Trump is saying over and over again.
[01:42:15.120 --> 01:42:18.800] I can do whatever I want. You have no authority. I'm the only one with any authority,
[01:42:19.360 --> 01:42:23.200] right? Congress doesn't have any authority. The courts don't have any authority,
[01:42:23.200 --> 01:42:31.120] and the Constitution has no authority for Trump. So the Ninth Circuit Court rejected the argument
[01:42:31.840 --> 01:42:38.640] that his use of Section 12406 is completely insulated from judicial review. However,
[01:42:39.200 --> 01:42:47.760] when this came up before, in terms of the LA deployment, the court kind of said, well,
[01:42:47.760 --> 01:42:54.320] we still have oversight, but we're not going to fight you on this. So they capitulated to him
[01:42:54.320 --> 01:43:01.040] to avoid a fight, and so it kind of shows you that nobody has the guts to stand up to it. That's why
[01:43:01.040 --> 01:43:05.280] it's good for Marjorie Taylor Greene that she would stand up to this guy. The courts are afraid
[01:43:05.280 --> 01:43:10.960] of him. Certainly, Mouse Johnson is afraid of him, Squeaker Mouse.
[01:43:12.000 --> 01:43:16.160] It's incredibly surprising for it to be Marjorie Taylor Greene that's actually standing up and
[01:43:16.160 --> 01:43:21.200] saying something. I just wouldn't have bet on that.
[01:43:21.200 --> 01:43:26.800] I had just written her off as another sycophant because, look, we all saw this
[01:43:27.360 --> 01:43:34.160] in one form or the other five years ago in 2020. 2020, all of this stuff was done all at once.
[01:43:34.160 --> 01:43:39.680] That's why I say anybody that would still support this guy, I just don't understand it at all, but
[01:43:39.680 --> 01:43:46.720] good for her. She has had enough, evidently, of this. I don't know what it was that changed her
[01:43:46.720 --> 01:43:53.280] mind. After 2020, at minimum, you would have to look at it and go, okay, he is so incompetent and
[01:43:53.280 --> 01:43:59.280] stupid that he's a massive threat and cannot be put back into office. Well, that was the defense
[01:43:59.280 --> 01:44:03.200] of a lot of these people. Well, it wasn't Trump. It was the deep state, and they were fooling him,
[01:44:03.200 --> 01:44:08.240] and it's like, so you want this guy back? Oh, good. A fool. Just what we need.
[01:44:08.240 --> 01:44:13.360] I said, whether he's a fool or a tool or whether this is a tool of the technocrats.
[01:44:14.560 --> 01:44:21.520] Anyway, applying the same test last Saturday, the U.S. District Judge Karen Emergute, who was
[01:44:21.520 --> 01:44:25.440] appointed by Trump, concluded that Trump's assessment of the situation in Portland was,
[01:44:25.440 --> 01:44:31.360] quote, simply untethered to the facts. Yes, as usually his statements are.
[01:44:32.320 --> 01:44:38.080] From June 11th through June 25th, she acknowledged the protests at Portland's Immigration and
[01:44:38.080 --> 01:44:44.720] Custom Enforcement Building included violent behavior and required increased law enforcement
[01:44:44.720 --> 01:44:50.080] presence. But since then, she noted the protests have dwindled to 20 or fewer people and were
[01:44:50.080 --> 01:44:57.440] generally peaceful, with only sporadic incidences of violence and disruptive behavior. But here's
[01:44:57.920 --> 01:45:04.480] the key. It can be and should be addressed with normal law enforcement. It does not require
[01:45:05.440 --> 01:45:11.360] the over-the-top response of sending in the military. By late September, when Trump decided
[01:45:11.360 --> 01:45:16.080] the National Guard is necessary to protect war ravaged Portland, that's his terms, from,
[01:45:16.080 --> 01:45:22.480] quote, domestic terrorists, unquote, the situation was categorically different from the violent
[01:45:22.480 --> 01:45:27.680] incidents that the government had described in L.A., she said. She noted that the government
[01:45:27.680 --> 01:45:32.960] cited only four incidents of protesters clashing with federal officers in September, including
[01:45:32.960 --> 01:45:38.960] the Erec— Whether it's slots or live dealers, SpinQuest.com has the fun and action you're looking

[01:46:33.600 --> 01:46:40.640] Action of a makeshift guillotine. Flashlights shown into the eyes of drivers at the ICE facility
[01:46:40.640 --> 01:46:46.800] and an online photograph of an unmarked ICE vehicle. Again, this is the kind of, you know,
[01:46:46.800 --> 01:46:51.760] manufactured hysteria that we saw from the Biden administration about January the 6th.
[01:46:51.760 --> 01:46:55.760] Instead of a guillotine, somebody put up a gallows with a hangman's noose in it.
[01:46:56.320 --> 01:47:03.360] And, you know, they use any pretense like this to escalate things. She said, while these incidents
[01:47:03.360 --> 01:47:07.760] are inexcusable, they can be handled by regular law enforcement forces. She said,
[01:47:07.760 --> 01:47:13.840] neither violence in a different state nor the more potential for future escalation
[01:47:13.840 --> 01:47:20.480] can provide a colorable basis for invoking Section 12406. That argument, she said, would render
[01:47:20.480 --> 01:47:27.280] meaningless the statute's quote, extraordinary requirements, allowing the president to federalize
[01:47:27.280 --> 01:47:33.440] one state's National Guard based on events in a different state or mere speculation about future
[01:47:33.440 --> 01:47:42.880] events. During the Ninth Circuit Court's hearing on Thursday, one judge was notably skeptical of
[01:47:42.880 --> 01:47:49.760] her reasoning. He said, applying that test to the Civil War, he said, I'm not sure that even sure
[01:47:49.760 --> 01:47:55.440] that President Lincoln would have been able to bring in forces when he did, unless Lincoln acted
[01:47:55.440 --> 01:48:00.800] immediately after the Confederate attack on Fort Sumter. Well, that would have been a good thing.
[01:48:01.600 --> 01:48:07.040] Actually, if you go back and read Shelby Foote's history of the Civil War, and he spent 20 years
[01:48:07.040 --> 01:48:13.920] on that, and he, I think, is by far and away the best analysis of the Civil War. But he said that
[01:48:13.920 --> 01:48:19.840] it was a deliberate provocation to make sure that he had the justification. He didn't want to be seen
[01:48:19.840 --> 01:48:26.080] as the aggressor. And so it was a deliberate provocation. He had probed a lot of different
[01:48:26.080 --> 01:48:32.320] places to go in and try to provoke the people, the different states that had seceded. And then he
[01:48:32.320 --> 01:48:41.360] determined that South Carolina was the one that they were most likely to take a violent response
[01:48:41.360 --> 01:48:46.800] to. So that's where he went. There's also the fact that just, it was a win-win. Either they do
[01:48:46.800 --> 01:48:51.280] something about it and he gets justification, or he's able to build up enough troops there that,
[01:48:51.280 --> 01:48:55.040] you know, maybe he becomes the aggressor. But at that point, it's just a flat out, I've got enough
[01:48:55.040 --> 01:49:01.040] people here right now to conquer this area immediately. But I think it's interesting,
[01:49:01.040 --> 01:49:06.000] too, that the judge goes back to the Civil War, because that's what we're seeing here. So fourth
[01:49:06.000 --> 01:49:11.680] turning. So what Trump is doing is, structurally, he's doing what FDR did in the last fourth turning.
[01:49:11.680 --> 01:49:17.920] And then with the military aspect of this, he's doing what Lincoln did in the fourth turning before
[01:49:17.920 --> 01:49:23.120] that. What did you say, Lance? Yeah, I was just going to say, it's also odd that he would point
[01:49:23.120 --> 01:49:28.960] to this as though it were an argument in favor, saying that if this law had been passed, the Civil
[01:49:28.960 --> 01:49:34.800] War wouldn't have happened, as though that's an argument for the law not to be passed.
[01:49:34.800 --> 01:49:38.800] Yeah, that's right. Yeah, your argument would have been, okay, things have deescalated now,
[01:49:38.800 --> 01:49:41.760] so we don't have to have a Civil War. No, we want to have that Civil War, right?
[01:49:42.800 --> 01:49:49.040] So Emmergut also rejected Trump's assertion that he was facing a rebellion, or the danger of a
[01:49:49.040 --> 01:49:55.520] rebellion in Portland. So yeah, it may not be this yet, but it's going to be that. And so I'm
[01:49:55.520 --> 01:50:02.240] going to do this in anticipation of it becoming that. Here we have an anticipatory invasion,
[01:50:02.240 --> 01:50:07.680] I guess. Which is the way we fight our wars, isn't it? It's like, well, they're not attacking
[01:50:07.680 --> 01:50:11.840] us now, but they could. And if looks could kill, it would be us instead of them, right?
[01:50:12.720 --> 01:50:18.320] So her analysis relied on Breyer's historically informed understanding of the term rebellion.
[01:50:19.280 --> 01:50:26.560] Breyer said, or she said, first, a rebellion must not only be violent, but must also be armed.
[01:50:27.120 --> 01:50:34.800] Second, a rebellion must be organized. Third, a rebellion must be open and avowed. And fourth,
[01:50:34.800 --> 01:50:40.400] a rebellion must be against the government as a whole, often with the aim of overthrowing the
[01:50:40.400 --> 01:50:47.920] government, rather than in opposition to a single law or issue. So applying that definition, the
[01:50:47.920 --> 01:50:53.920] Trump-appointed judge, Emergute, concluded that the protests in Portland were not a rebellion,
[01:50:54.480 --> 01:51:00.320] did not pose a danger of a rebellion, especially in the days leading up to the federalization
[01:51:00.320 --> 01:51:07.040] of sending in the troops. So another judge, Chaffin, rather, this is not a judge, this is
[01:51:07.040 --> 01:51:12.960] someone who's arguing the case, told the Ninth Circuit panel that the appropriate definition
[01:51:13.040 --> 01:51:17.680] of rebellion is an open, organized armed resistance to an established government
[01:51:17.680 --> 01:51:21.280] or an attempt to change the government or the leader, usually through violence.
[01:51:22.320 --> 01:51:29.680] And so the Ninth Circuit court, however, does not seem to be buying these arguments.
[01:51:30.480 --> 01:51:34.000] On the same day that the Ninth Circuit considered the Portland deployment,
[01:51:34.560 --> 01:51:39.920] a U.S. District Judge, April Perry, a Biden appointee, issued a temporary restraining
[01:51:39.920 --> 01:51:45.760] order against the deployment in Illinois. Echoing Emergute, who was appointed by Trump,
[01:51:45.760 --> 01:51:50.880] Perry, who was appointed by Biden, said the Trump administration's perception of events,
[01:51:50.880 --> 01:51:57.360] quote unquote, in the Chicago area is, quote, simply unreliable, unquote. She suggested that
[01:51:57.360 --> 01:52:03.040] calling up the National Guard would, quote, only add fuel to the fire the defendants themselves
[01:52:03.040 --> 01:52:08.480] have started. Well, that's what we see happening over and over again, isn't it?
[01:52:08.560 --> 01:52:13.840] Yeah. This scenario and what you're saying reminded me of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
[01:52:13.840 --> 01:52:19.200] quote about diplomacy and the stages of war. So it goes, retribution, because I'm going to kill
[01:52:19.200 --> 01:52:24.560] you because you killed my brother. Anticipation, I'm going to kill you because I killed your brother.
[01:52:24.560 --> 01:52:28.800] And then there's diplomacy. I'm going to kill my brother and then kill you on the pretext that
[01:52:28.800 --> 01:52:35.440] your brother did it. And it's just this, diplomacy is this web of nonsense. You've spun out so many
[01:52:35.440 --> 01:52:43.360] lies and you're justifying everything based on it. Yeah, that's right. So Trump had a bizarre
[01:52:43.360 --> 01:52:50.160] rant on social media about Biden in January the 6th, screaming, do something, all uppercase.
[01:52:50.800 --> 01:52:57.440] Just after midnight on Sunday morning, he released onto his social media platform a screed in which
[01:52:57.440 --> 01:53:05.200] he claimed that the Biden FBI placed 274 agents in the crowd on January the 6th, when Trump
[01:53:05.360 --> 01:53:12.400] himself was still president. It wasn't the Biden FBI. And I've said this all along to the people,
[01:53:12.400 --> 01:53:18.720] even the people who went to jail for years and were so excited that Trump finally pardoned them
[01:53:18.720 --> 01:53:24.160] when he could have done it before they ever got harassed in the first place. But I also said from
[01:53:24.160 --> 01:53:29.440] the very beginning of this, I said, this is not only a grift. Trump made $250 million. I have no
[01:53:29.440 --> 01:53:35.520] idea how much Alex Jones made off of Stop the Steal. But they fleeced these people. They endangered
[01:53:35.520 --> 01:53:41.600] these people. And then Trump left them to face the consequences from Biden. And I said, it's going to
[01:53:41.600 --> 01:53:46.400] be agent provocateurs. You're being set up if you go there. And they're not only going to be setting
[01:53:46.400 --> 01:53:51.440] you up and sending you to jail, they're going to be using this to come after the entire conservative
[01:53:51.440 --> 01:53:57.440] movement, even those of us who don't support Trump. The president took his social media site,
[01:53:58.400 --> 01:54:05.520] The Dead of Night, to write, uppercase, all uppercase, the Biden FBI placed 274 agents
[01:54:05.520 --> 01:54:13.920] in the crowd on January the 6th. This is when Trump was president and still contesting the
[01:54:13.920 --> 01:54:20.880] election results. He added, if this is so, which it is, a lot of very good people will be owed
[01:54:20.880 --> 01:54:30.640] big apologies. What a now all uppercase scam. Do something. President DJT. Thank you for your
[01:54:30.640 --> 01:54:35.280] attention, I guess. He didn't write that this time. I don't know. Isn't that amazing?
[01:54:35.280 --> 01:54:37.280] When is President Biden going to do something?
[01:54:37.280 --> 01:54:46.160] Yeah. His spell is so strong over these people that he can even claim that Biden was pulling
[01:54:46.160 --> 01:54:50.720] the strings when he was president. Of course, the reality is, is that the same people are
[01:54:50.720 --> 01:54:55.040] pulling the strings whether Trump was president or Biden was president. And they're using these two
[01:54:55.040 --> 01:55:02.560] stooges as a left right faint, the march of tyranny. Maybe you meant to say Netanyahu's FBI.
[01:55:04.400 --> 01:55:10.080] Who knows? Who knows? Well, a lot of billionaires are preparing for the end of society. Maybe you
[01:55:10.080 --> 01:55:16.800] should too. What is it that they are afraid of? Well, Futurism says these guys are investing in
[01:55:16.800 --> 01:55:26.560] bunkers, guns, and gold for societal collapse. The tech billionaires are still doomsday prepping.
[01:55:27.200 --> 01:55:33.440] And as the BBC reports, it seems that AI is making some of them more paranoid than ever.
[01:55:33.440 --> 01:55:38.800] The societies we know it may soon crumble. Well, I think there's a couple of things going on with
[01:55:38.800 --> 01:55:43.440] this. I think societies we know it may soon crumble with this fourth turning. I think they
[01:55:43.440 --> 01:55:47.840] see that. I think a lot of people see it. They don't want to use that term, even though they use
[01:55:47.840 --> 01:55:55.840] all the generational perspective millennials and so forth that were part of that thesis and the
[01:55:55.840 --> 01:56:02.160] words that they coined. However, I think they're also looking at what Hugo de Gares characterized
[01:56:02.160 --> 01:56:08.800] as the art-elect war, the artificial intelligence war. He had said, and I guess it was maybe about
[01:56:08.800 --> 01:56:16.480] a decade or so ago when I was interviewing Hugo. I don't see the book here, but anyway,
[01:56:16.480 --> 01:56:20.720] the book is out of print. It's pretty valuable now. I just don't want to sell it yet.
[01:56:22.000 --> 01:56:29.680] But in that, the book basically had two premises. Number one, Hugo was not a Christian,
[01:56:29.680 --> 01:56:36.160] and so he believed that if you could create an exact replica of the brain, it would come to life.
[01:56:36.160 --> 01:56:40.320] And it's like, no, that's not what it is. It's that spark of life that comes from God alone.
[01:56:41.680 --> 01:56:48.560] When you smash a mosquito on your hand, all the elements of that mosquito are still there. All
[01:56:48.560 --> 01:56:53.680] the physical elements of that mosquito are there, but somehow you've disassembled it and that spark
[01:56:53.680 --> 01:57:01.040] of life is gone. And you can sit there and stare at those ingredients for a million years and it'll
[01:57:01.040 --> 01:57:08.640] never assemble itself into a mosquito. So you can create an exact replica of the brain and it will
[01:57:08.640 --> 01:57:15.600] never become conscious. But that was my difference that I had with him. His other thing was that he
[01:57:15.600 --> 01:57:22.480] took a very negative contrarian point of view about AI. It was in contrast to Ray Kurzweil's
[01:57:22.480 --> 01:57:27.040] Pollyanna vision. Ray Kurzweil thinks that it's a good thing that we're going to create,
[01:57:28.400 --> 01:57:33.040] they think that they're going to create a God-like intelligence. Ray Kurzweil thought that was a good
[01:57:33.040 --> 01:57:37.520] thing, and Hugo de Gers was one of the first people to come out and say, that's a bad thing.
[01:57:38.160 --> 01:57:45.280] It'll squash us like a bug. And so he would ask that question to different communities of scientists
[01:57:45.280 --> 01:57:50.400] when he would speak on AI, because he's one of the early experts on AI, and he would ask them,
[01:57:50.400 --> 01:57:53.600] if you knew that you were going to create something that was going to wipe out humanity,
[01:57:53.600 --> 01:57:57.840] would you still do it? And most of the people, the scientists and engineers they talked to said,
[01:57:57.840 --> 01:58:06.400] yes, they would. And as I said before, the first time that he ever got a negative response from
[01:58:06.400 --> 01:58:11.600] the audience was when he addressed a Christian audience. Isn't that interesting? However,
[01:58:11.600 --> 01:58:17.680] the other part of his book was about the fact that once people catch the idea of what AI is going to
[01:58:17.680 --> 01:58:23.120] do to society, which we're at that point right now, he said there's going to be a massive pushback
[01:58:23.120 --> 01:58:30.400] against the people building this. And he said they're going to take to defending themselves.
[01:58:31.280 --> 01:58:36.320] He thought, I think, that they might be a little bit further along than they are right now.
[01:58:37.440 --> 01:58:42.080] His idea was that they would take to near-Earth orbit, like the thing that you see in Elysium,
[01:58:42.560 --> 01:58:48.240] and so he called them Cosmists, and he called those of us left behind on Earth Terrans,
[01:58:48.240 --> 01:58:53.040] and he said the Cosmists would have technology at their disposal that they could unleash
[01:58:53.040 --> 01:58:59.760] gigadeth, billions of people killed on us. I think it'll take the form of some kind of a fake
[01:58:59.760 --> 01:59:08.560] pandemic and a bioweapon injection like Trump did, or some kind of a war that they will engineer
[01:59:08.560 --> 01:59:14.400] here. I think rather than waging war on us themselves, they will take control of people
[01:59:14.400 --> 01:59:21.040] like Trump and bring on a world war, and then that's, I think, what they're looking at right now.
[01:59:21.840 --> 01:59:27.360] But they're also aware that there's a lot of momentum building against them, the same
[01:59:27.360 --> 01:59:32.800] scenario that Hugo de Gers talked about in the Ardellite War. In 2023, Zuckerberg was breaking
[01:59:32.800 --> 01:59:38.480] ground in roughly 5,000 square foot underground basement facility that he characterized as just a
[01:59:38.480 --> 01:59:45.280] little shelter, definitely not a doomsday bunker. Yeah, 5,000 square foot for him is just a little
[01:59:45.280 --> 01:59:51.440] little shelter, yeah. Barely any room at all. Yeah. These days, a race for AI dominance has
[01:59:51.440 --> 01:59:58.160] ignited a new wave of existential fear among the tech elite, or is it that they see the fourth
[01:59:58.160 --> 02:00:05.520] turning coming? It could be a combination of both of those things, I think. So, an AI system that's
[02:00:05.520 --> 02:00:10.720] generally more intelligent than humans will send human society into irreparable chaos, the Ardellite
[02:00:10.720 --> 02:00:18.960] War idea. Although it could be that the AI purveyors are just a little bit more intelligent than the
[02:00:18.960 --> 02:00:24.960] people who are buying their product, and that's always necessary to create all kinds of economic
[02:00:24.960 --> 02:00:31.440] chaos. So, one of these guys said, we're definitely going to build a bunker before
[02:00:32.240 --> 02:00:38.880] we release artificial general intelligence. Altman, for instance, is known to have a stockpile
[02:00:38.880 --> 02:00:46.160] of guns and gold in his bunker. He has sprawling properties and other resources that he can turn
[02:00:46.160 --> 02:00:52.720] to in the event of an AI-inflicted Armageddon, or in the event of a societal breakdown, or in the
[02:00:52.720 --> 02:00:57.760] event of people figuring out- What's up, baby? It's Bretzky, and I'm here to tell you that

[02:01:58.720 --> 02:02:02.320] running for president said, you know, we're trying to take their jobs, and we've got to figure out
[02:02:02.320 --> 02:02:07.280] how we're going to stop them from coming after us with a guillotine. So we'll use universal
[02:02:07.280 --> 02:02:12.400] basic income. And Trump was helping to set the precedent for that in 2020 with the stimulus
[02:02:12.400 --> 02:02:18.080] checks as well. AI also doesn't have to be conscious or achieve human-level intelligence
[02:02:18.080 --> 02:02:23.840] in order to create chaos in our social world. And in our financial world either. This AI bubble
[02:02:23.840 --> 02:02:30.240] could do it all on its own. But where are these people really going? There's an excellent, very,
[02:02:30.240 --> 02:02:34.480] very long article that we don't have the time to go into fully that's on the Free Thought Project
[02:02:34.480 --> 02:02:42.880] that came from Unlimited Hangout. And the title of it is City States Without Limits Part One. And
[02:02:42.880 --> 02:02:49.520] this is about 40 or 50 pages long. And this is just part one. So I would highly, I'm going to
[02:02:49.520 --> 02:02:54.000] try to hit some of the high points here. But you know, the interesting thing is when I was putting
[02:02:54.000 --> 02:03:03.280] together that, that AI thing about Trump's apocalypse, there was one clip that I was going
[02:03:03.280 --> 02:03:08.400] to use in it. And Lance looked at it and he says, no, you know, it's basically a bunch of robots
[02:03:08.400 --> 02:03:14.400] walking down an aisle with humans and cattle car type things reaching out with their hands.
[02:03:15.040 --> 02:03:21.760] And I'll show you. That's what it looks like right here. Yeah, right there. And he said, no,
[02:03:21.760 --> 02:03:27.200] I think what's going to happen is you're going to have people say, yeah, but I want deportations.
[02:03:27.760 --> 02:03:34.080] That wasn't my idea with that. My idea with that was that that's the future for all of us. They want
[02:03:34.080 --> 02:03:39.120] to lock us up in these cities. So they call them freedom cities, which is what Trump calls them,
[02:03:39.120 --> 02:03:45.280] where they call them smart cities or 15 minute cities. They want to limit us into these different
[02:03:45.280 --> 02:03:50.880] places and take everything from us. But I agreed with them. I said, yeah, that's going to undercut
[02:03:50.880 --> 02:03:56.640] this because you've got so many people who say, well, I agree with the goals of deportation.
[02:03:57.360 --> 02:04:03.520] And so because of that, I will go along with whatever means Trump uses. And I said, yeah,
[02:04:03.520 --> 02:04:09.600] you're right. It's that far gone that people would actually say, no, I want that. Isn't that
[02:04:09.600 --> 02:04:14.480] kind of concerning? It concerns me when I think about that. And I think he's absolutely right.
[02:04:14.480 --> 02:04:18.960] I think this is the way people would interpret that. Well, the intention is for these city
[02:04:18.960 --> 02:04:27.040] states to form a patchwork of realms overseen by regional balance of power and a global governance
[02:04:27.040 --> 02:04:33.760] system, a multipolar world order. And so the Trump administration, along with these
[02:04:33.760 --> 02:04:39.440] Silicon Valley oligarchs, are pushing for the construction of privatized city states.
[02:04:39.440 --> 02:04:42.880] This has been something that's been the dream of libertarians for a very long time.
[02:04:43.920 --> 02:04:49.040] Going back to the 80s or 90s, there were people who wanted to do seasteading and get into
[02:04:49.040 --> 02:04:53.280] international waters and create a floating city so they could get away from government.
[02:04:54.160 --> 02:04:58.080] I share that impulse. I would love to get away from government myself.
[02:04:59.040 --> 02:05:04.240] But when you look at the way these people are taking that basic impulse and they're shifting
[02:05:04.240 --> 02:05:10.160] it, when you look at the statements from people like Curtis Yarvin, you start to see where this
[02:05:10.160 --> 02:05:16.320] is maybe heading in a direction that we don't want to have as libertarians. New city states,
[02:05:16.320 --> 02:05:21.360] some of them being constructed from scratch, others being seeded into existing cities,
[02:05:22.000 --> 02:05:28.400] go by many names. In the US, Trump has called them freedom cities. The UN refers to them as
[02:05:28.400 --> 02:05:34.880] human settlements. The C40 people, that's the network that was started by Sadiq Khan
[02:05:34.880 --> 02:05:41.440] and Michael Bloomberg, they call them 15-minute cities. The Global Parliament of Mayors refers
[02:05:41.440 --> 02:05:47.040] to them as resilient cities. And the Charter Cities Institute calls them, unsurprisingly,
[02:05:47.040 --> 02:05:52.560] charter cities. Some of these are already close to being completed as smart cities.
[02:05:52.560 --> 02:05:59.120] Many of these new city states, as yet undeclared, have been given independent jurisdiction with
[02:05:59.120 --> 02:06:04.400] varying degrees of autonomy from the nation states in which they reside. The most striking
[02:06:04.400 --> 02:06:10.960] shared trait is their universal commitment to implement global governance policy initiatives.
[02:06:10.960 --> 02:06:16.560] That's the sustainable development goals that come from the UN. To this end, many nascent city
[02:06:16.560 --> 02:06:21.680] states have already joined city-based global governance networks. Some are currently being
[02:06:21.680 --> 02:06:28.000] built in so-called special economic zones. Others announced city-state developments,
[02:06:28.000 --> 02:06:34.400] such as freedom cities in the US, bear all the hallmarks of these special economic zones.
[02:06:35.040 --> 02:06:41.200] The global proliferation of the, again, special economic zones, I guess we could call them says,
[02:06:41.280 --> 02:06:48.480] that's the abbreviation, as in Simon says or Trump says this, do that. Most notably,
[02:06:48.480 --> 02:06:53.280] those residential spaces is rapidly expanding the potential locations for yet more city-state
[02:06:53.280 --> 02:07:01.360] projects. There are already thousands of them. The notion of phasing out the purported sovereignty
[02:07:01.360 --> 02:07:07.520] of a nation state is now firmly embedded in the strategies to develop a new kind of intergovernmental
[02:07:07.520 --> 02:07:12.160] structure. So in other words, rather than imposing this from the top down, they might
[02:07:12.160 --> 02:07:17.360] give us this global governance from the bottom up by creating these different cities. And already,
[02:07:17.920 --> 02:07:21.920] when you look at the cities, they've said, remember that Pentagon video that I played for you,
[02:07:21.920 --> 02:07:25.200] they said, yeah, this is where the war is going to be in the future. You're going to have
[02:07:25.760 --> 02:07:31.120] tremendous concentration of people. You're going to have competing ethnic groups that are going
[02:07:31.120 --> 02:07:36.320] to be there. And this is where the Pentagon is going to be operating. Trump is making that happen.
[02:07:37.680 --> 02:07:42.240] The concept of a worldwide network of privatized corporate city-state kingdoms
[02:07:42.800 --> 02:07:48.560] has been embraced and is viewed as the best and most expedient method, both for enslaving humanity
[02:07:48.560 --> 02:07:54.560] to a centralized digital surveillance and a behavioral control grid, and for establishing
[02:07:54.560 --> 02:08:00.080] firm global governance. In a previous two-part investigation for Unlimited Hangout called the
[02:08:00.080 --> 02:08:06.000] Dark Maga Government Corporate Technate, that they also did in two parts, they said, we also,
[02:08:06.000 --> 02:08:14.560] this is on, let's see, the group that does this is Unlimited Hangout. They said they explored the
[02:08:14.560 --> 02:08:19.840] so-called philosophy of the dark enlightenment. And of course, that is coming from the people
[02:08:20.400 --> 02:08:27.040] in and around Peter Thiel and all the technocrats. This is their philosophical treatise
[02:08:27.040 --> 02:08:31.040] for the technocrats. The Dark Enlightenment was a philosophical treatise first published
[02:08:31.600 --> 02:08:38.720] by British political theorist and philosopher Nick Land in 2012. It incorporated the ideas espoused
[02:08:38.720 --> 02:08:46.160] by U.S. thinker, tech entrepreneur, and blogger Curtis Yarvin. Yarvin's theories are especially
[02:08:46.160 --> 02:08:54.880] loved by J.D. Vance as a disciple of Peter Thiel, maybe not disciple, as a minion of Peter Thiel.
[02:08:55.680 --> 02:09:01.680] And so yeah, it is Curtis Yarvin. If you want to get concerned about what the future looks like,
[02:09:01.680 --> 02:09:06.720] pay attention to what he has to say. In the Dark Enlightenment, Land acknowledged the influence
[02:09:06.720 --> 02:09:12.880] of Peter Thiel on the growth of his own ideas. Specifically, he referenced Thiel's 2009 article,
[02:09:12.880 --> 02:09:18.480] The Education of a Libertarian, as formative. Curtis Yarvin describes Thiel as, quote,
[02:09:18.480 --> 02:09:24.400] fully enlightened, fully part of the Dark Enlightenment, this guy who is obsessed
[02:09:25.040 --> 02:09:31.360] with global governance and who is obsessed with the Antichrist and the idea that if you
[02:09:31.360 --> 02:09:37.920] try to get in his way, then you are the Antichrist. A close associate of Thiel's and Thiel's Founders
[02:09:37.920 --> 02:09:44.160] Fund financed Yarvin's tech startup, Ventures. In essence, the Dark Enlightenment proposes the
[02:09:44.160 --> 02:09:48.640] public sector government should be replaced with a form of private sector government.
[02:09:49.440 --> 02:09:55.760] Privatized corporate realms should be ruled by the CEO, Techno Kings, that's the term that they
[02:09:55.760 --> 02:10:03.600] came up with, of sovereign corporations. They call them SOVCOR, to rule as dictatorships.
[02:10:04.480 --> 02:10:11.120] The realms can then be linked to form what Yarvin termed a patchwork of realms. In 2008,
[02:10:11.120 --> 02:10:14.000] he described his notion of the patchwork and he wrote,
[02:10:14.000 --> 02:10:19.120] The basic idea of patchwork is that the crappy governments we inherited from history are smashed
[02:10:19.760 --> 02:10:26.320] and they should be replaced by a global spiderweb of tens, even hundreds or thousands of sovereign,
[02:10:26.320 --> 02:10:33.120] independent, many countries, each governed by its own joint stock corporation without regard
[02:10:33.120 --> 02:10:39.280] to the residents' opinions. Without regard to the opinions of the people that live there.
[02:10:39.760 --> 02:10:40.560] See, that's the difference.
[02:10:40.560 --> 02:10:43.920] You're bobbing with that pesky consent of the governed nonsense.
[02:10:43.920 --> 02:10:50.320] Yeah. That's the difference, right? I mean, I would like to have governance broken into smaller
[02:10:50.880 --> 02:10:57.520] pieces, but still under the principles that this country was founded on, that we are created in
[02:10:57.520 --> 02:11:03.520] the image of God and that we have inalienable rights and that we are not beyond freedom and
[02:11:03.520 --> 02:11:11.200] dignity. These people buy into B.F. Skinner's behavioral psychological control thing a thousand
[02:11:11.200 --> 02:11:19.680] percent. I mean, is this fundamentally any different from the middle ages system of lords
[02:11:19.680 --> 02:11:26.480] and serfs? Not at all. It's just a return to the old fashioned system with a brand new coat of
[02:11:26.560 --> 02:11:33.760] paint that they call the dark enlightenment and give it a techno coat. But it was always
[02:11:33.760 --> 02:11:42.480] inevitable that it would get to this when weapons became more centralized, power became centralized,
[02:11:42.480 --> 02:11:44.960] so government will naturally follow.
[02:11:44.960 --> 02:11:50.960] That's right. As a matter of fact, they point that out right here. Just about to read that.
[02:11:51.040 --> 02:11:55.440] Imagining what life was like for oppressed peasants living in the feudal society of
[02:11:55.440 --> 02:12:00.240] medieval Europe is probably the best way to visualize the future the darkly enlightened
[02:12:00.240 --> 02:12:07.280] technocrats have in mind for us, except they never had the kind of oversight and continual
[02:12:07.280 --> 02:12:12.320] presence of government during the middle ages like this technology will give them.
[02:12:12.880 --> 02:12:23.840] Neither they have these new reactionary, it's what they call them, NRX. They're extremely
[02:12:23.840 --> 02:12:28.160] authoritarian. The NRX model of government is disassociated from any notion of politics
[02:12:28.160 --> 02:12:33.760] as we understand it. Thiel wrote in his influential 2009 article, the objective is to
[02:12:34.160 --> 02:12:43.760] find an escape from politics in all of its forms. So again, this is not, we try to fit these guys
[02:12:43.760 --> 02:12:48.480] into our understanding of political philosophies, understand they're looking for something
[02:12:48.480 --> 02:12:54.320] completely different. They don't want politics, they want dictatorships. That's where this whole
[02:12:54.320 --> 02:13:00.080] analogy falls apart. But it's an excellent article and I'd highly recommend that you read it. But
[02:13:00.080 --> 02:13:03.840] we're going to stop here and take a break. You want to cover some of the comments here?

[02:13:21.840 --> 02:13:28.080] in for their face. Yeah, that's right. It's just amazing. Well, so you want to do the comments
[02:13:28.080 --> 02:13:33.440] when we come back? Yes. Okay, we're going to do that then. We'll be right back, folks. Stay with us.

[02:18:17.040 --> 02:18:31.600] Oh,
[02:18:38.480 --> 02:18:45.600] analyzing the globalist next move.
[02:18:47.040 --> 02:19:02.080] Yeah, we have Trump is very upset about the fact that he didn't get the Nobel Prize, the
[02:19:02.080 --> 02:19:03.080] Nobel Peace Prize.
[02:19:03.080 --> 02:19:06.440] This is something that he has coveted for quite some time.
[02:19:06.440 --> 02:19:12.240] Well, they should give me the Nobel Prize for Rwanda and if you look at the Congo, I
[02:19:12.240 --> 02:19:14.120] should have gotten it four or five times.
[02:19:14.120 --> 02:19:25.960] Well, they should get it for the, I would think, the precious.
[02:19:25.960 --> 02:19:29.680] And so the people are saying Norway better watch its back right now.
[02:19:29.680 --> 02:19:30.680] What's he going to do?
[02:19:30.680 --> 02:19:33.560] Is he going to start shooting boats out of the water or is he going to hit them with
[02:19:33.560 --> 02:19:34.960] massive tariffs?
[02:19:34.960 --> 02:19:38.120] The Nobel Prize, it wasn't Trump's.
[02:19:39.000 --> 02:19:44.560] chose a Venezuelan rebel over a peacemaker.
[02:19:44.560 --> 02:19:51.560] And so this is a Putin flattery piece from RT saying that, well, he really deserved it.
[02:19:51.560 --> 02:19:59.280] I think this person who got it, Maria Karina Machado, one of the most prominent faces of
[02:19:59.280 --> 02:20:05.360] Venezuela's opposition was the one who was awarded the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize.
[02:20:05.360 --> 02:20:07.360] The committee's language is familiar.
[02:20:07.360 --> 02:20:12.480] They talked about rights, about a peaceful transition, but the story behind it isn't.
[02:20:12.480 --> 02:20:17.560] Machado's record blends volunteer election networks with long running fights over foreign
[02:20:17.560 --> 02:20:18.840] funding.
[02:20:18.840 --> 02:20:25.800] She's been getting, according to allegations, a lot of money from the US government to overthrow
[02:20:25.800 --> 02:20:31.200] Maduro, who was a successor to Chavez, Hugo Chavez.
[02:20:32.040 --> 02:20:39.240] It's interesting that Chavez, Maduro, has actually offered to try to buy off the American
[02:20:39.240 --> 02:20:40.240] government.
[02:20:40.240 --> 02:20:43.240] He understands that this is not about, everybody knows it's not about drugs, it's no more
[02:20:43.240 --> 02:20:49.320] about drugs with Venezuela than it was about drugs with Canada.
[02:20:49.320 --> 02:20:58.920] This is Trump's layer of, his facade of BS that he's always doing, his facade of falsehoods
[02:20:58.920 --> 02:21:01.040] that he uses to do this stuff.
[02:21:01.880 --> 02:21:02.880] We all understand it's about regime change.
[02:21:02.880 --> 02:21:07.120] We all understand, furthermore, that the regime change is about the oil.
[02:21:07.120 --> 02:21:09.840] They have more oil than Saudi Arabia does.
[02:21:09.840 --> 02:21:13.520] They just can't get it out of the ground because they're communists and they can't do anything
[02:21:13.520 --> 02:21:14.520] right.
[02:21:14.520 --> 02:21:22.320] So, Maduro is offering to give some capability to the US to be a mutually beneficial thing
[02:21:22.320 --> 02:21:25.880] actually for him if he was actually able to get the oil out.
[02:21:25.880 --> 02:21:28.720] He nationalized the companies and he can't run them.
[02:21:29.400 --> 02:21:30.960] That's precisely what Hitler said about Stalin.
[02:21:30.960 --> 02:21:33.640] He said, you know, they're both socialists.
[02:21:33.640 --> 02:21:38.440] They both wanted to have centralized command and control of the economy eventually.
[02:21:38.440 --> 02:21:43.640] But he said Stalin's mistake was that Stalin nationalized the companies and he can't do
[02:21:43.640 --> 02:21:44.640] it.
[02:21:44.640 --> 02:21:45.640] He can't run it efficiently.
[02:21:45.640 --> 02:21:50.880] He said, I'm going to leave these guys in place and I will then reap the benefits from
[02:21:50.880 --> 02:21:51.880] that.
[02:21:51.880 --> 02:21:54.560] And at the very end, you know, if I need to, I'll take them over.
[02:21:54.560 --> 02:21:58.240] But I can effectively take them over and have these people operate it.
[02:21:58.240 --> 02:21:59.720] That is what fascism is.
[02:21:59.720 --> 02:22:02.720] It's a merger of state and government.
[02:22:02.720 --> 02:22:04.760] And so the communists can't get this done.
[02:22:04.760 --> 02:22:08.880] So maybe they'll look at some kind of a fascist arrangement and bring the American corporations
[02:22:08.880 --> 02:22:10.000] back in.
[02:22:10.000 --> 02:22:17.120] But she has actually made a bigger offer to the US apparently.
[02:22:17.120 --> 02:22:23.160] The award lifts a domestic struggle onto the global stage and drops it into a fresh context.
[02:22:23.160 --> 02:22:28.760] For much of the year, chatter about a Nobel Prize for Trump hung in the air and the very
[02:22:28.760 --> 02:22:36.160] idea of what counts as peacemaking is once again up for debate and everywhere.
[02:22:36.160 --> 02:22:40.760] So really, Trump, you know, when he wants a Nobel Peace Prize, I mean, wouldn't you
[02:22:40.760 --> 02:22:49.560] think this is a guy who, when he funds and supplies continuing wars in Gaza and in Ukraine
[02:22:49.600 --> 02:22:54.200] and then pretends that he's the negotiator who's bringing peace, who would have thought
[02:22:54.200 --> 02:22:56.240] that that guy would not get the Nobel Prize?
[02:22:56.240 --> 02:23:01.520] Who would have thought that a guy who is violating international law and blowing ships out of
[02:23:01.520 --> 02:23:04.920] the water would not get the Nobel Peace Prize?
[02:23:04.920 --> 02:23:06.560] Or we could look at Afghanistan.
[02:23:06.560 --> 02:23:11.800] He wants to restart that can of worms in a fight over the Bagram base.
[02:23:11.800 --> 02:23:15.840] Then we could talk about the bombing of Iran and all the rest of things.
[02:23:15.880 --> 02:23:20.280] I think he definitely deserves a Nobel Peace Prize, don't you?
[02:23:20.280 --> 02:23:25.360] Maria Karina Machado is an engineer by training, one of the most recognizable figures in Venezuela's
[02:23:25.360 --> 02:23:28.200] opposition over the past two decades.
[02:23:28.200 --> 02:23:36.040] Born in Caracas to a family linked to an industrial group, she studied at university later at
[02:23:36.040 --> 02:23:39.080] Venezuela's leading management school.
[02:23:39.080 --> 02:23:43.640] Early exposure to the family's business and affinity for market-friendly ideas shaped
[02:23:43.640 --> 02:23:45.480] her public profile.
[02:23:45.480 --> 02:23:50.760] An emphasis on entrepreneurship, privatization, and integration within global markets.
[02:23:50.760 --> 02:23:57.760] In 2002, she co-founded a civic platform that built volunteer networks to train election
[02:23:57.760 --> 02:24:00.640] observers and to run parallel vote counts.
[02:24:00.640 --> 02:24:02.720] Now why would she do something like that?
[02:24:02.720 --> 02:24:12.000] Well, it's because Smartmatic was created by a few cronies of Hugo Chavez.
[02:24:12.000 --> 02:24:15.720] That's where they began in Venezuela rigging elections for him.
[02:24:15.720 --> 02:24:19.080] So what she did was she set this organization up and they were going to run parallel vote
[02:24:19.080 --> 02:24:22.480] counts because they knew that he was rigging the elections.
[02:24:22.480 --> 02:24:26.400] And then Smartmatic got involved in one scandal after the other.
[02:24:26.400 --> 02:24:27.400] What's up, baby?

[02:25:25.720 --> 02:25:32.320] They're accused of rigging elections in several different Mexican states, as well as Brazil
[02:25:32.320 --> 02:25:37.240] in a huge fight over Smartmatic rigging of elections in Philippines.
[02:25:37.240 --> 02:25:41.160] This is all before any of this stuff happened in the U.S., which is why I don't understand
[02:25:41.160 --> 02:25:42.760] that nobody ever talks about that.
[02:25:42.760 --> 02:25:47.920] I was talking about that before any of this stuff happened with the 2020 election.
[02:25:47.920 --> 02:25:49.800] It's history, okay?
[02:25:49.800 --> 02:25:55.640] And to say that there was the people in all these different jurisdictions believe that
[02:25:55.640 --> 02:26:02.880] Smartmatic had not been an honest broker of the elections is to make it an understatement.
[02:26:02.880 --> 02:26:05.000] They've been accused of this everywhere.
[02:26:05.000 --> 02:26:11.600] But if you do it here in the U.S., then supposedly you get sued or something, well, we never
[02:26:11.600 --> 02:26:16.700] got sued for that reporting because it's factual and historical.
[02:26:16.700 --> 02:26:20.320] So that is when the first major controversy took hold.
[02:26:20.320 --> 02:26:24.240] Authorities alleged that the group received funding from U.S.-based organizations.
[02:26:24.240 --> 02:26:28.720] Her supporters countered that the money supported legitimate civic initiatives, and from then
[02:26:28.720 --> 02:26:33.660] on every move that she made in politics was viewed through the lens of where to draw the
[02:26:33.660 --> 02:26:36.620] line on outside assistance.
[02:26:36.620 --> 02:26:43.900] So Maduro's only defense was to taint her by saying she was taking American money and
[02:26:43.900 --> 02:26:46.580] subject to American influence.
[02:26:46.580 --> 02:26:53.260] That same year, 2002, brought Venezuela's most dramatic recent upheaval, the brief ouster
[02:26:53.260 --> 02:26:55.660] of Hugo Chavez.
[02:26:55.660 --> 02:26:59.300] But he got back into power, and then he passed that on to Maduro.
[02:26:59.300 --> 02:27:06.620] By the mid-2010s, Machado had consolidated her own political vehicle into a group that
[02:27:06.620 --> 02:27:11.500] translates the name Vente Venezuela, which means Come Venezuela.
[02:27:11.500 --> 02:27:18.020] In public, she argued for deregulation, anti-corruption measures, privatization, and openness to
[02:27:18.020 --> 02:27:23.820] investment, along with a peaceful transition through elections and international monitoring
[02:27:23.820 --> 02:27:25.820] of elections.
[02:27:25.820 --> 02:27:32.060] Her biggest surge came in 2023, when she won opposition primaries by a wide margin.
[02:27:32.060 --> 02:27:37.580] The ban on her running, however, remained in force, and her team faced inspections and
[02:27:37.580 --> 02:27:38.580] arrests.
[02:27:38.580 --> 02:27:45.300] This is basically what's going on in Germany now, and also to some degree in France, outlying
[02:27:45.300 --> 02:27:48.860] the popular opposition to the government.
[02:27:48.860 --> 02:27:53.540] In early 2024, the opposition shifted to a substitute candidate.
[02:27:53.540 --> 02:28:00.860] Edmundo Gonzalez, a career diplomat, but she was recognized as the power behind that.
[02:28:00.860 --> 02:28:04.740] Registration was marred by technical snags, and the media argued over whether the campaign
[02:28:04.740 --> 02:28:06.940] conditions were even handed.
[02:28:06.940 --> 02:28:11.820] When the votes were counted and the incumbent held on, several foreign governments declined
[02:28:11.820 --> 02:28:13.940] to recognize the result.
[02:28:13.940 --> 02:28:17.460] And inside Venezuela, the post-election map barely moved.
[02:28:17.460 --> 02:28:22.900] In other words, kind of the same way that we do it here with gerrymandering.
[02:28:22.900 --> 02:28:27.180] You pick the congressional districts, you pick the voters, and you basically control
[02:28:27.180 --> 02:28:29.980] the outcome.
[02:28:29.980 --> 02:28:36.380] After the 2024 Machado largely disappeared from public events, her statements came via
[02:28:36.380 --> 02:28:39.380] video with her whereabouts undisclosed.
[02:28:39.380 --> 02:28:44.180] The phrase underground network took hold in media shorthand, and supporters saw a movement
[02:28:44.180 --> 02:28:46.540] that was operating under pressure.
[02:28:46.540 --> 02:28:52.400] Against that backdrop, the Nobel Peace Prize elevates her biography to the international
[02:28:52.400 --> 02:28:56.780] stage and carries a long-running national argument over the limits of political struggle
[02:28:56.780 --> 02:28:59.700] to a much wider audience.
[02:28:59.700 --> 02:29:04.920] The Nobel Committee said that it was honoring her for her tireless work promoting democratic
[02:29:04.920 --> 02:29:10.080] rights for the people of Venezuela and for her struggle to achieve a just, peaceful transition
[02:29:10.080 --> 02:29:13.560] from dictatorship to democracy.
[02:29:13.560 --> 02:29:19.840] And this is happening while Trump is working to overthrow our own constitution and the
[02:29:20.040 --> 02:29:23.340] rule of law domestically as well.
[02:29:23.340 --> 02:29:28.440] So within Venezuela, the same actions that Oslo calls peaceful resistance have been framed
[02:29:28.440 --> 02:29:32.800] by officials as destabilization efforts supported from abroad.
[02:29:32.800 --> 02:29:38.080] I think she got a wind of the fact that after they rigged that election, she was the next
[02:29:38.080 --> 02:29:41.500] thing to fall, so she disappeared.
[02:29:41.500 --> 02:29:48.680] She has publicly voiced support for Washington's decision to combat Venezuelan drug cartels
[02:29:48.680 --> 02:29:54.080] through military means, so she's by no means an honest broker.
[02:29:54.080 --> 02:29:57.640] There is no Venezuelan drug cartel that is running.
[02:29:57.640 --> 02:30:01.560] That is pure fiction from Trump, absolute fiction.
[02:30:01.560 --> 02:30:06.520] Her statement drew wide attention as it aligned her stance with the US administration's tougher
[02:30:06.520 --> 02:30:13.060] regional policy and blurred the boundary between domestic opposition and foreign strategy.
[02:30:13.060 --> 02:30:18.420] So it may wind up to Trump's benefit the fact that the Nobel Peace Prize was given
[02:30:18.420 --> 02:30:19.420] to her.
[02:30:19.420 --> 02:30:26.860] It will give an aura or a facade of legitimacy to his regime change that he's involved in.
[02:30:26.860 --> 02:30:31.500] For much of the year, Washington buzzed with talk of a Nobel Prize for Trump.
[02:30:31.500 --> 02:30:33.420] The president himself didn't hide his ambition.
[02:30:33.420 --> 02:30:34.420] He talked about it incessantly.
[02:30:34.420 --> 02:30:38.980] As a matter of fact, even when he brought in all the generals and admirals from all
[02:30:38.980 --> 02:30:43.580] over the world, he was telling them how much he deserved the Nobel Peace Prize.
[02:30:43.580 --> 02:30:47.780] Of all the people, they would know better.
[02:30:47.780 --> 02:30:49.500] Also it's just, who cares?
[02:30:49.500 --> 02:30:50.500] Yeah, he does.
[02:30:50.500 --> 02:30:51.500] It's his ego.
[02:30:51.500 --> 02:30:52.500] Why?
[02:30:52.500 --> 02:30:55.140] It's just so, again, petty.
[02:30:55.140 --> 02:30:58.780] This is, you gotta bring me in the room, you gotta give me the little medal, you gotta
[02:30:58.780 --> 02:31:03.740] put the little gold star on my paper and tell me I'm being a good boy, because I deserve
[02:31:03.740 --> 02:31:04.740] it.
[02:31:04.740 --> 02:31:05.740] That's right.
[02:31:05.940 --> 02:31:09.060] a petty, narcissistic, feed my ego.
[02:31:09.060 --> 02:31:10.060] Yeah.
[02:31:10.060 --> 02:31:11.740] Well, that's what he's about.
[02:31:11.740 --> 02:31:14.020] That's why it really does define him.
[02:31:14.020 --> 02:31:21.180] By late 2025, the Trump team listed seven cases where his diplomacy had helped halt
[02:31:21.180 --> 02:31:23.380] or de-escalate conflicts.
[02:31:23.380 --> 02:31:26.820] And the reality is, is that these people in all these different areas say that he didn't
[02:31:26.820 --> 02:31:27.820] have anything to do with it.
[02:31:27.820 --> 02:31:31.900] As a matter of fact, I didn't play it for you because it was hard to hear, but you could
[02:31:31.900 --> 02:31:35.220] kind of hear it if you really dialed it up and tuned it in.
[02:31:35.220 --> 02:31:41.860] It was an official from Azerbaijan who was talking to Macron when Trump was addressing
[02:31:41.860 --> 02:31:46.540] the UN, and the two of them were laughing about Trump's claim that he brought peace
[02:31:46.540 --> 02:31:49.740] to Armenia and Azerbaijan.
[02:31:49.740 --> 02:31:53.620] They were laughing at him at the UN over this claim.
[02:31:53.620 --> 02:31:59.420] So the Nobel deadline fell on January 31st, just 11 days after his inauguration, meaning
[02:31:59.420 --> 02:32:05.060] that most of his achievements, quote unquote, were technically ineligible.
[02:32:05.060 --> 02:32:07.020] But that didn't stop his backers.
[02:32:07.020 --> 02:32:13.100] Several world leaders and families of Israeli hostages publicly endorsed his nomination.
[02:32:13.100 --> 02:32:20.380] And again, this is sycophantic currying of favor and flattering him, the fact that he
[02:32:20.380 --> 02:32:24.020] claims to have stopped seven wars.
[02:32:24.020 --> 02:32:27.780] White House communication director wrote on X, President Trump will continue making peace
[02:32:27.780 --> 02:32:35.740] deals, ending wars and saving lives as he continues to send bombs to Ukraine and Israel.
[02:32:35.740 --> 02:32:36.740] Yeah.
[02:32:36.740 --> 02:32:38.620] What's going on, Texas?
[02:32:38.620 --> 02:32:39.620] It's Bluff here.

[02:33:37.540 --> 02:33:42.180] Many prove that they place politics over peace and the Trump White House has proved that
[02:33:42.180 --> 02:33:48.260] it is completely detached from reality, but not from Trump's ego.
[02:33:48.260 --> 02:33:51.460] He wanted the prize too openly, said one person.
[02:33:51.460 --> 02:33:52.460] There's an unwritten rule.
[02:33:52.460 --> 02:33:56.060] The more you campaign for it, the less likely you are to get it.
[02:33:56.060 --> 02:33:57.700] I can just imagine if he did get it.
[02:33:57.700 --> 02:34:01.340] He'd get up and he'd probably do that Sally Fields thing.
[02:34:01.340 --> 02:34:02.340] You love me.
[02:34:02.340 --> 02:34:03.340] You really love me.
[02:34:03.340 --> 02:34:08.460] It was parodied in another mask with Jim Carrey.
[02:34:08.460 --> 02:34:09.460] Jim Carrey, yeah.
[02:34:09.460 --> 02:34:13.100] I mean, part of it is no one likes a striver.
[02:34:13.100 --> 02:34:15.900] No one likes someone that sits and is like, I've got to have it.
[02:34:15.900 --> 02:34:16.900] You've got to give it to me.
[02:34:16.900 --> 02:34:17.900] I need this.
[02:34:18.020 --> 02:34:26.500] Well, abortion, ambition, ambition used to be a strong disqualifier for office in America.
[02:34:26.500 --> 02:34:33.500] As a matter of fact, that was the chief criticism of Lincoln, was that he was too ambitious.
[02:34:33.500 --> 02:34:37.300] And now all of our politicians don't try to hide their ambition.
[02:34:37.300 --> 02:34:42.460] It used to be in the past, you would wait and say, well, at least try to keep the pretense
[02:34:42.660 --> 02:34:48.220] that you were reluctantly pushed into this race and you're not running for office.
[02:34:48.220 --> 02:34:50.140] You were standing for office.
[02:34:50.140 --> 02:34:53.460] Now these people are desperately running.
[02:34:53.460 --> 02:34:54.460] Sprinting for it.
[02:34:54.460 --> 02:35:00.060] They're driving Ferraris that were paid for by foreign corporations and governments.
[02:35:00.060 --> 02:35:05.260] So August 8th, Trump mediated the signing of an historic peace agreement between Armenia
[02:35:05.260 --> 02:35:11.940] and Azerbaijan at the White House, formally ending their decades long conflict over Nagorno-Karabakh
[02:35:12.220 --> 02:35:14.540] and establishing normalized relations.
[02:35:14.540 --> 02:35:22.060] Although neither nation has ratified it, that's for show.
[02:35:22.060 --> 02:35:27.820] In May 2025, Trump claimed credit for brokering a ceasefire between India and Pakistan, though
[02:35:27.820 --> 02:35:33.660] India maintains that the truce was achieved directly through bilateral military channels
[02:35:33.660 --> 02:35:39.020] without any third party involvement, and that would include Trump.
[02:35:39.060 --> 02:35:44.500] And then there's no mention of the fact that he threatens to restart the Afghanistan war
[02:35:44.500 --> 02:35:48.740] over Bagram Air Force Base in Afghanistan.
[02:35:48.740 --> 02:35:57.140] So again, these seven things are just as fraudulent as his claims about insurrection and rebellion
[02:35:57.140 --> 02:35:58.740] in the U.S.
[02:35:58.740 --> 02:36:00.540] Look out, Norway.
[02:36:00.540 --> 02:36:03.340] The Nobel snub for Trump leads to concerns.
[02:36:03.340 --> 02:36:04.340] Will he bomb them?
[02:36:04.340 --> 02:36:05.820] Will he assassinate some leaders?
[02:36:05.820 --> 02:36:09.780] Will he impose confiscatory tariffs on them?
[02:36:09.780 --> 02:36:14.700] Norway is bracing for Trump's reaction if he does not win the Nobel Prize, said the
[02:36:14.700 --> 02:36:15.700] Guardian.
[02:36:15.700 --> 02:36:23.260] Again, the Guardian is not necessarily your most reliable source in terms of Trump.
[02:36:23.260 --> 02:36:29.660] They hate him incessantly, and they've let that take over their judgment, stating that
[02:36:29.660 --> 02:36:35.140] the U.S. president may impose tariffs, demand higher NATO contributions, or even declare
[02:36:35.140 --> 02:36:40.460] Norway to be an enemy, according to reports in the Guardian.
[02:36:40.460 --> 02:36:43.980] But one user said, how dare them?
[02:36:43.980 --> 02:36:46.180] Tariffs on Norway is now unstoppable.
[02:36:46.180 --> 02:36:50.620] But he can also hurt them in many different economic ways.
[02:36:50.620 --> 02:36:58.900] And so this is from Judge Napolitano, Andrew Napolitano, and it is titled, When Presidents
[02:36:58.900 --> 02:36:59.900] Kill.
[02:36:59.900 --> 02:37:03.100] And let's just understand what these guys are about.
[02:37:03.100 --> 02:37:09.420] What Obama was about is what Bush was about, both of them, is what Trump is about, Clinton,
[02:37:09.420 --> 02:37:10.420] all of them.
[02:37:10.420 --> 02:37:13.140] You know, was it worth it to kill half a million kids with sanctions?
[02:37:13.140 --> 02:37:14.860] Oh yeah, it was.
[02:37:14.860 --> 02:37:20.300] But what Napolitano is talking about here is even more direct action, which Trump is
[02:37:20.300 --> 02:37:21.780] very proud of.
[02:37:21.780 --> 02:37:26.240] During the past six weeks, Trump has ordered the U.S. troops to attack and destroy four
[02:37:26.240 --> 02:37:31.260] speedboats in the Caribbean Sea, 1,500 miles from the U.S.
[02:37:31.260 --> 02:37:36.060] The president revealed that the attacks were conducted without warning, were intended not
[02:37:36.060 --> 02:37:42.060] to stop, but to kill all persons on board, and that they succeeded in their missions.
[02:37:42.060 --> 02:37:45.180] He apparently believes that because these folks are presumably foreigners, that they
[02:37:45.180 --> 02:37:52.460] have no rights, and that he must honor, that they have no rights that he has to honor,
[02:37:52.460 --> 02:37:54.860] and that he may freely kill them.
[02:37:54.860 --> 02:37:58.700] As far as we know, none of these nameless, faceless persons was charged or convicted
[02:37:58.700 --> 02:38:00.540] of any federal crime.
[02:38:00.540 --> 02:38:05.540] We don't know if any of them were Americans, but we do know that all of them were extrajudicially
[02:38:05.540 --> 02:38:07.180] executed.
[02:38:07.180 --> 02:38:11.380] And I've had, you know, people even on this program leave comments and say, don't talk
[02:38:11.380 --> 02:38:13.300] to me about rights for foreigners.
[02:38:13.300 --> 02:38:18.920] Well, what we're talking about are rights, the concept of rights in America are based
[02:38:18.920 --> 02:38:21.500] on the idea that we are created in the image of God.
[02:38:21.500 --> 02:38:22.500] And guess what?
[02:38:22.500 --> 02:38:25.980] People who don't have U.S. citizenship are created in the image of God.
[02:38:25.980 --> 02:38:32.920] But if we allow our government to kill people created in the image of God, they will eventually
[02:38:32.920 --> 02:38:37.460] kill you without any judicial process as well.
[02:38:37.460 --> 02:38:39.540] Can the president legally do this in a word?
[02:38:39.540 --> 02:38:40.540] No.
[02:38:40.540 --> 02:38:41.700] Here's the back story.
[02:38:41.700 --> 02:38:46.040] The Constitution was ratified to establish federal powers and to limit them.
[02:38:46.040 --> 02:38:49.640] Congress is established to write the laws and to declare war.
[02:38:49.640 --> 02:38:53.860] The president is established to enforce the laws that Congress has written, and to be
[02:38:53.860 --> 02:38:59.060] commander in chief of the armed forces if they have declared a war.
[02:38:59.060 --> 02:39:00.660] Restraints are imposed on both.
[02:39:00.660 --> 02:39:06.340] Congress may only enact legislation in the 16 discrete areas of governance articulated
[02:39:06.340 --> 02:39:08.100] in the Constitution.
[02:39:08.100 --> 02:39:14.140] And it may only legislate subject to all persons natural rights identified and articulated
[02:39:14.140 --> 02:39:15.580] in the Bill of Rights.
[02:39:15.580 --> 02:39:18.460] The president may only enforce the laws that Congress has written.
[02:39:18.460 --> 02:39:20.740] He cannot craft his own.
[02:39:20.740 --> 02:39:27.740] And he may employ the military only in defense of a real eminent style attack or to fight
[02:39:27.740 --> 02:39:30.560] wars that Congress has declared.
[02:39:30.560 --> 02:39:35.100] The Fifth Amendment assures that no person's life, liberty, or property may be taken without
[02:39:35.100 --> 02:39:37.480] due process of law.
[02:39:37.480 --> 02:39:41.560] Because the drafters, and now listen to this, for all of you who say foreigners don't have
[02:39:41.560 --> 02:39:45.980] rights and should not be given due process, just do whatever you want to to them.
[02:39:45.980 --> 02:39:53.220] Because the drafters of the amendment use the word person rather than citizen, the courts
[02:39:53.220 --> 02:39:58.700] have ruled consistently this due process requirement is applicable to all human beings.
[02:39:58.700 --> 02:40:04.140] Wherever the government goes, it is subject to constitutional restraints, as it should
[02:40:04.140 --> 02:40:05.700] be.
[02:40:05.700 --> 02:40:09.880] And this is not just a legal detail that is here.
[02:40:09.880 --> 02:40:11.480] As I said before, think of the principle.
[02:40:11.480 --> 02:40:16.680] If you're going to allow the government to do this kind of stuff to people who are foreign
[02:40:16.680 --> 02:40:20.720] citizens, the government will eventually do it to you in the United States.
[02:40:20.720 --> 02:40:22.520] And we don't want to have that kind of thing.
[02:40:22.520 --> 02:40:24.600] We need to keep a restraint on the government.
[02:40:24.600 --> 02:40:31.880] The most dangerous thing to your life and to your liberty is an unrestrained government.
[02:40:31.880 --> 02:40:35.280] And the purpose of the Constitution was to restrain them, that's what the Bill of Rights
[02:40:35.280 --> 02:40:36.280] is really about.
[02:40:36.280 --> 02:40:40.880] And we ignore that to our own detriment.
[02:40:40.880 --> 02:40:44.760] These things will come back around on us if we are not careful.
[02:40:44.760 --> 02:40:47.760] Traditionally, due process means a trial.
[02:40:47.760 --> 02:40:49.920] In the case of a civilian, it means a jury trial.
[02:40:49.920 --> 02:40:55.280] In the case of enemy combatants, it means a fair and neutral tribunal.
[02:40:55.280 --> 02:40:59.120] The tribunal requirement came about in an odd and terrifying way.
[02:40:59.120 --> 02:41:06.320] In 1942, four Nazi troops arrived via submarine at the Amagansett Beach, New York, and exchanged
[02:41:06.320 --> 02:41:08.920] their uniforms for civilian garb.
[02:41:08.920 --> 02:41:13.800] At nearly the same time, four other Nazi troops arrived via submarine at Ponto Verde
[02:41:13.800 --> 02:41:18.200] Beach, Florida, and they also donned civilian clothing.
[02:41:18.200 --> 02:41:23.880] All eight of them set about their assigned task of destroying American munitions factories.
[02:41:23.880 --> 02:41:28.520] After one of them went to the FBI, all eight of them were arrested.
[02:41:28.520 --> 02:41:36.120] FDR panicked and ordered all eight summarily executed, even the guy who went to the FBI.
[02:41:36.120 --> 02:41:40.920] When two of the eight protested in perfect English that they were born in the U.S. and
[02:41:40.920 --> 02:41:45.840] their protest proved to be accurate, FDR decided to appoint a counsel for all of them and to
[02:41:45.840 --> 02:41:47.480] hold a trial.
[02:41:47.480 --> 02:41:54.120] At trial, all eight were convicted of attempting sabotage behind enemy lines, even including
[02:41:54.120 --> 02:41:58.720] the guy who became an informant.
[02:41:58.720 --> 02:41:59.720] That is a war crime.
[02:41:59.720 --> 02:42:04.920] The Supreme Court quickly returned to Washington from its summer vacation and unanimously upheld
[02:42:04.920 --> 02:42:06.520] all the convictions.
[02:42:06.520 --> 02:42:12.280] By the time the court issued its formal opinion, however, six of the eight had already been
[02:42:12.280 --> 02:42:13.280] executed.
[02:42:13.280 --> 02:42:16.800] Wait for the Supreme Court to weigh in on this.
[02:42:16.800 --> 02:42:21.760] The two Americans were sentenced to life in prison, and it's not clear as to whether or
[02:42:21.760 --> 02:42:25.000] not the informant was an American or not.
[02:42:25.000 --> 02:42:30.600] Their sentences were commuted five years later by Harry Truman when the war ended.
[02:42:30.600 --> 02:42:35.800] The linchpin to all of this was FDR's decision to appoint counsel and to have a trial.
[02:42:35.800 --> 02:42:40.460] The Supreme Court made it clear that even unlawful enemy combatants, those out of uniform
[02:42:40.460 --> 02:42:46.680] and not on a recognized battlefield, are entitled to due process.
[02:42:46.680 --> 02:42:53.160] But for the trial afforded to the Nazi saboteurs, it would not have permitted their executions.
[02:42:53.160 --> 02:42:58.040] So this jurisprudence was essentially followed in three Supreme Court cases involving foreign
[02:42:58.040 --> 02:43:04.680] persons whom the George W. Bush administration had arrested and characterized as enemy combatants
[02:43:04.680 --> 02:43:06.800] and detained in Gitmo.
[02:43:06.800 --> 02:43:10.560] In wartime, U.S. troops can lawfully kill enemy troops that are engaged in violence
[02:43:10.560 --> 02:43:12.000] against them.
[02:43:12.000 --> 02:43:17.760] But pursuant to these Supreme Court cases, the U.N. charter and the treaty that the U.S.
[02:43:17.760 --> 02:43:23.240] wrote, as well as the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, another treaty
[02:43:23.240 --> 02:43:28.000] that the U.S. wrote, if combatants are not engaged in violence, they may not be able
[02:43:28.000 --> 02:43:30.760] to be harmed but only arrested.
[02:43:30.760 --> 02:43:35.160] All this presumes that Congress has in fact declared war on the country or the group from
[02:43:35.160 --> 02:43:37.440] which the combatants come from.
[02:43:37.440 --> 02:43:42.320] And that hasn't happened since December 8, 1941.
[02:43:42.320 --> 02:43:46.060] Now back to Trump ordering the military to kill foreigners in the Caribbean.
[02:43:46.060 --> 02:43:51.180] International law provides for stopping ships engaged in violence in international waters.
[02:43:51.180 --> 02:43:56.840] It also provides for stopping and searching ships with probable cause for the search in
[02:43:56.840 --> 02:43:58.840] U.S. territorial waters.
[02:43:58.840 --> 02:44:05.120] But no law permits, and the prevailing judicial jurisprudence deriving from the Constitution
[02:44:05.120 --> 02:44:12.800] and federal statutes absolutely prohibits the summary murder of folks not engaged in
[02:44:12.800 --> 02:44:15.760] violence on the high seas or anywhere else.
[02:44:15.760 --> 02:44:19.280] And this is not just Judge Napolitano saying this.
[02:44:19.280 --> 02:44:24.760] This has been said by the chief judges of the military in various administrations, both
[02:44:24.840 --> 02:44:30.160] Democrat and Republican, have come out and opposed this and said this is an international
[02:44:30.160 --> 02:44:32.800] war crime, what Trump is doing.
[02:44:32.800 --> 02:44:38.000] The American General, I'm sorry, the Attorney General has reluctantly revealed the existence
[02:44:38.000 --> 02:44:44.520] of a legal memorandum proponing to justify Trump's orders and the military's killings.
[02:44:44.520 --> 02:44:47.200] But she insisted that the memorandum is classified.
[02:44:47.200 --> 02:44:49.920] So think about this.
[02:44:49.920 --> 02:44:56.640] She says Pam Bondi, again, I agree with the assessment, perhaps the worst attorney general
[02:44:56.640 --> 02:45:02.760] of my life, is now saying that, well, there may not be any legal authority for this, but
[02:45:02.760 --> 02:45:06.880] as attorney general, I've given him a memorandum that allows him to do this.
[02:45:06.880 --> 02:45:11.560] But you can't see it because it's classified and it's secret.
[02:45:11.560 --> 02:45:17.280] Napolitano says a legal memorandum can only be based on public laws enacted by Congress
[02:45:17.280 --> 02:45:19.280] and interpreted by the courts.
[02:45:19.280 --> 02:45:22.720] There are no secret laws.
[02:45:22.720 --> 02:45:28.760] There can be no classified rationale for killing the legally innocent.
[02:45:28.760 --> 02:45:32.760] And they are legally innocent until you have given them due process.
[02:45:32.760 --> 02:45:37.800] If the memorandum purports to permit the president to declare nonviolent enemy combatants on
[02:45:37.800 --> 02:45:45.540] a whim and kill them, it is in defiance of 80 years of consistent jurisprudence and its
[02:45:45.540 --> 02:45:50.300] drafters and executors have engaged in serious criminality.
[02:45:50.300 --> 02:45:53.620] Where will these extrajudicial killings go next?
[02:45:53.620 --> 02:45:54.620] To Chicago?
[02:45:54.620 --> 02:45:59.780] You know, he's giving himself, he's not just giving himself, folks, these powers.
[02:45:59.780 --> 02:46:05.740] He's giving these powers to the next Biden, to the next Obama, to the next Hillary Clinton.
[02:46:05.740 --> 02:46:08.020] That's who Trump is giving these powers to.
[02:46:08.020 --> 02:46:13.740] For all of you who think that the end justifies the means, I'm telling you, that's the end.
[02:46:13.740 --> 02:46:18.660] The end is that he's giving these powers to some future Democrat to do this to you.
[02:46:18.660 --> 02:46:21.560] How do you feel about that?
[02:46:21.560 --> 02:46:27.180] Trump has said that the U.S. is at war with drug cartels, but is Congress on board?
[02:46:27.180 --> 02:46:35.140] And this is an interview back and forth between, on World Radio, between the host there, Myrna
[02:46:35.140 --> 02:46:42.780] Brown, and a guest who is being interviewed, Carolina Lumetta.
[02:46:43.260 --> 02:46:47.180] We have a ton of comments if you want to get to that before you move on to another.
[02:46:47.180 --> 02:46:48.180] Yeah, let's do that.
[02:46:48.180 --> 02:46:49.180] Let's do that.
[02:46:49.180 --> 02:46:50.180] Thank you.
[02:46:50.180 --> 02:46:51.180] Go ahead, Travis.
[02:46:51.180 --> 02:46:52.180] That's right.
[02:46:52.180 --> 02:46:53.180] Jim's 7.
[02:46:53.180 --> 02:46:54.180] Thank you very much.
[02:46:54.180 --> 02:46:55.180] We appreciate it.
[02:46:55.180 --> 02:46:58.980] It says, whatever happened to Greenland, the first smoke screen of the 47 admin?
[02:46:58.980 --> 02:47:03.460] Well, yeah, I played my little Greenland thing there, but that's got Charlie Kirk singing
[02:47:03.460 --> 02:47:08.100] in it, so I imagine I would be arrested and put in Gitmo for putting that up now.
[02:47:08.100 --> 02:47:10.900] My personal conspiracy theory is Greenland doesn't exist.
[02:47:10.900 --> 02:47:13.020] It never existed at all.
[02:47:13.020 --> 02:47:16.980] It's just a useful tool they trot out every once in a while to make you think there's
[02:47:16.980 --> 02:47:17.980] a Greenland.
[02:47:17.980 --> 02:47:18.980] Well, it's a lie.
[02:47:18.980 --> 02:47:21.420] Greenland is covered in ice.
[02:47:21.420 --> 02:47:23.460] It's Iceland that's green.
[02:47:23.460 --> 02:47:27.100] Greenland is covered in ice, and Iceland is very nice.
[02:47:27.100 --> 02:47:31.840] Real Jason Barker, COVID lockdown, shut down small businesses, and the tariffs are now
[02:47:31.840 --> 02:47:33.780] going for the medium-sized producers.
[02:47:33.780 --> 02:47:35.300] It's a one-two punch for consolidation.
[02:47:36.300 --> 02:47:41.220] Going to make sure there's no businesses left aside from the major players.
[02:47:41.220 --> 02:47:45.740] Nibiru2029, once Bill Gates has stolen enough farmland, the only food being produced will

[02:49:00.340 --> 02:49:06.220] Yeah, it's those stocks, puts and shorts and things like that that turn it into a gambling
[02:49:06.220 --> 02:49:07.220] market.
[02:49:07.220 --> 02:49:14.420] You know, if you think of it as investing in a company that you think is going to grow,
[02:49:14.420 --> 02:49:17.180] then you don't really understand how this whole system works.
[02:49:17.180 --> 02:49:21.820] It's the shorts and the puts that turn it into a casino.
[02:49:21.820 --> 02:49:26.900] Real Jason Barker says, I do land, guns, ammo, food, seeds, etc.
[02:49:26.900 --> 02:49:29.300] Skills are a great investment as well.
[02:49:29.300 --> 02:49:33.100] Land tools, ammo, reloads, setup, there are many ways to set yourself up outside the dollar.
[02:49:33.100 --> 02:49:35.540] Pray about it and God will let you know what to do.
[02:49:35.540 --> 02:49:36.540] Yes.
[02:49:36.540 --> 02:49:37.540] Yeah.
[02:49:37.540 --> 02:49:39.740] Gard Goldsmith says, great point Travis.
[02:49:39.740 --> 02:49:42.740] That's one of the mistakes my family made early with collectible coins.
[02:49:42.740 --> 02:49:47.580] The collectible side shuts down when the economy tanks, so it's better to buy the metals or
[02:49:47.580 --> 02:49:48.780] junk silver.
[02:49:48.780 --> 02:49:49.780] Yeah.
[02:49:49.780 --> 02:49:51.780] Nibiru 2029.
[02:49:51.780 --> 02:49:56.020] Bush Reagan's 1979-1980 campaign slogan was, let's make America great again.
[02:49:56.020 --> 02:49:58.660] Trump's nothing more than a plagiarizing grifter.
[02:49:58.700 --> 02:50:00.020] He was too lazy to even make his own.
[02:50:00.020 --> 02:50:02.420] I was absolutely amazed when he ran the first time.
[02:50:02.420 --> 02:50:05.940] I said, how in the world can he try to copyright that, right?
[02:50:05.940 --> 02:50:08.660] Because he was suing people that merchandise stuff.
[02:50:08.660 --> 02:50:13.060] So that's other people have said that for the longest time.
[02:50:13.060 --> 02:50:18.780] Stealth Patriot says, invest in a lot of lead.
[02:50:18.780 --> 02:50:19.500] That's right.
[02:50:19.500 --> 02:50:22.340] Make sure that you are able to protect yourself.
[02:50:22.340 --> 02:50:25.300] You want to be able to defend yourself and you want to know how to do that.
[02:50:25.380 --> 02:50:29.620] You can get the Civil Defense Manual Volumes 1 and 2 at JackLawsonBooks.com.
[02:50:29.620 --> 02:50:34.780] It'll teach you not just about defending yourself, but how to prepare, find water, find food,
[02:50:34.780 --> 02:50:37.460] that sort of thing, and work as a community.
[02:50:37.460 --> 02:50:39.860] So Civil Defense Manual, JackLawsonBooks.com.
[02:50:39.860 --> 02:50:40.860] Yes.
[02:50:40.860 --> 02:50:42.740] Trucker Chris for the win.
[02:50:42.740 --> 02:50:45.940] Imagine laws that prevent any APAC-funded candidates being allowed to participate in
[02:50:45.940 --> 02:50:46.940] electoral politics.
[02:50:46.940 --> 02:50:50.300] Well, anybody that tried to put forward that law would get shot.
[02:50:51.260 --> 02:50:58.780] Yeah, listen, along that line, I've got a thing about APAC actually using barcodes for politicians.
[02:50:58.780 --> 02:51:03.020] Initially, I resented the fact that there was no appreciation for nuance.
[02:51:03.020 --> 02:51:07.900] Like, if you asked any questions about any decision of the Israeli government in any
[02:51:07.900 --> 02:51:15.900] place regarding settlements, regarding Gaza, whatever, you were like, you had deviated
[02:51:15.900 --> 02:51:16.900] from the script.
[02:51:17.060 --> 02:51:20.740] And I just, in any policy area, I had resentment over that.
[02:51:20.740 --> 02:51:28.260] And then I saw the way the APAC worked, and that was weird for a country lawyer like me.
[02:51:28.260 --> 02:51:33.420] I remember my first APAC reception, and your fundraiser tells you you have to go, and your
[02:51:33.420 --> 02:51:36.700] chief of staff tells you you have to go, your committee chairman will tell you you have
[02:51:36.700 --> 02:51:37.700] to go.
[02:51:37.700 --> 02:51:41.260] And you get there and you wear this name badge, and I remember there's a QR code on it.
[02:51:41.260 --> 02:51:46.060] And what we were supposed to do was go talk to donors, and then if they liked you, they
[02:51:46.100 --> 02:51:51.100] scanned your QR code to make a donation, like, on the spot.
[02:51:51.100 --> 02:51:56.420] And so, can you imagine how demoralizing that is to, like, be told that your job for the
[02:51:56.420 --> 02:52:01.980] next several hours to go chat people up, hoping they would scan you like a can of tomato soup
[02:52:01.980 --> 02:52:03.700] on the way out of the meeting?
[02:52:03.700 --> 02:52:05.700] I mean, it's like literally purchasing.
[02:52:05.700 --> 02:52:06.700] Right.
[02:52:06.700 --> 02:52:10.140] And so, I saw that, and I was like, wow, that is so freaking weird.
[02:52:10.140 --> 02:52:11.140] And then...
[02:52:11.140 --> 02:52:15.460] Now you know why he didn't make it into the administration, because I guess they didn't
[02:52:15.460 --> 02:52:18.940] like that he didn't scan his barcode or whatever at APAC enough.
[02:52:18.940 --> 02:52:19.940] Yeah.
[02:52:19.940 --> 02:52:20.940] Isn't that amazing?
[02:52:20.940 --> 02:52:21.940] Weird, demoralizing.
[02:52:21.940 --> 02:52:25.020] These aren't the words I would use.
[02:52:25.020 --> 02:52:26.020] Disgusting.
[02:52:26.020 --> 02:52:27.020] Repulsive.
[02:52:27.020 --> 02:52:28.020] Yeah.
[02:52:28.020 --> 02:52:37.500] These are more what describe this act of open corruption, the convenience market to buy
[02:52:37.500 --> 02:52:38.500] politicians.
[02:52:38.500 --> 02:52:44.340] Well, I've said for the longest time that the politicians ought to be forced to dress
[02:52:44.380 --> 02:52:50.060] like NASCAR drivers, where your sponsors are listed on your uniform, right, that your suit
[02:52:50.060 --> 02:52:54.420] should be all over that, you know, and who's paying for it.
[02:52:54.420 --> 02:52:57.300] But this is a step beyond that.
[02:52:57.300 --> 02:53:01.700] This is, I'm literally a can of soup that they're going to buy if they like it.
[02:53:01.700 --> 02:53:05.620] If I make enough promises for what I'll do for Israel, then they send me the money.
[02:53:05.620 --> 02:53:09.420] I'm just imagining a Jewish couple, would you like anything from the store on my way
[02:53:09.420 --> 02:53:10.420] home?
[02:53:10.420 --> 02:53:13.420] Ah, pick me up a Senator, too, you know.
[02:53:13.500 --> 02:53:14.500] Yeah.
[02:53:14.500 --> 02:53:19.540] And of course, the one time we saw someone trying to push back on something similar to
[02:53:19.540 --> 02:53:26.180] this was Frank Nicely trying to prevent out-of-state money coming into state elections.
[02:53:26.180 --> 02:53:28.220] And of course, that didn't get passed.
[02:53:28.220 --> 02:53:33.980] And then he had a massive amount of out-of-state money flooding in, supporting his opponent
[02:53:33.980 --> 02:53:34.980] in the next election.
[02:53:34.980 --> 02:53:35.980] Yeah.
[02:53:35.980 --> 02:53:39.060] If you go against the corruption, the corruption goes against you, that's how it works.
[02:53:39.060 --> 02:53:42.500] And then you are then a former politician.
[02:53:42.580 --> 02:53:45.060] You don't get to last long if you're a man of integrity.
[02:53:45.060 --> 02:53:46.060] That's right.
[02:53:46.060 --> 02:53:50.100] Chevken says, no queso, no cheese, question mark.
[02:53:50.100 --> 02:53:51.740] Yeah, that's the joke.
[02:53:51.740 --> 02:53:53.780] I don't understand how that's supposed to be funny.
[02:53:53.780 --> 02:53:56.540] I guess it's just like, they're stupid, ha ha.
[02:53:56.540 --> 02:53:57.540] No comprendo.
[02:53:57.540 --> 02:53:58.540] Yeah.
[02:53:58.540 --> 02:53:59.540] Si, no comprende.
[02:53:59.540 --> 02:54:04.940] Gardner Goldsman, so they are saying, no cheese, no cheese, leave it to MAGA to lumber
[02:54:04.940 --> 02:54:07.260] through even on AI production.
[02:54:07.260 --> 02:54:08.260] Yeah.
[02:54:08.260 --> 02:54:13.060] I truly do not understand how it's supposed to be humorous.
[02:54:13.060 --> 02:54:17.900] The real octo spook, it is all chipping away rights in the war on American citizens.
[02:54:17.900 --> 02:54:22.460] We can only expect more.
[02:54:22.460 --> 02:54:26.500] We have a Syrian girl, sad to see this happening to what was a great nation in our time right
[02:54:26.500 --> 02:54:28.060] before our eyes.
[02:54:28.060 --> 02:54:33.260] Real quick, another thing about that AI video is it's just, it's not funny on any level.
[02:54:33.260 --> 02:54:34.260] No.
[02:54:34.260 --> 02:54:35.580] People get pepper sprayed routinely.
[02:54:35.580 --> 02:54:42.340] You could at least go like an absurdist route, like a tank drives up and vaporizes the person.
[02:54:42.340 --> 02:54:45.420] That could at least be somewhat humorous in the sense of, oh, they've gone over the top.
[02:54:45.420 --> 02:54:46.420] This is ridiculous.
[02:54:46.420 --> 02:54:48.820] But no, it's just the cop pulls out pepper spray.
[02:54:48.820 --> 02:54:51.660] You can watch a video of this, a real video of this.
[02:54:51.660 --> 02:54:52.660] I don't like what you're saying.
[02:54:52.660 --> 02:54:57.780] Yeah, I remember years ago when you had the, it was on the Berkeley campus in California.
[02:54:57.780 --> 02:54:58.780] Yeah, that overweight cop just.
[02:54:58.780 --> 02:55:03.500] They did a sit-in and you have this guy who comes along with pepper spray and just walks
[02:55:03.500 --> 02:55:04.660] along spraying them in the face.
[02:55:04.740 --> 02:55:06.300] I mean, that's real.
[02:55:06.300 --> 02:55:09.900] And now, you know, the right is cheering that they like that.
[02:55:09.900 --> 02:55:11.820] I'm disgusted by that.
[02:55:11.820 --> 02:55:14.100] I'm disgusted by these MAGA people.
[02:55:14.100 --> 02:55:15.660] One and a half million likes.
[02:55:15.660 --> 02:55:18.660] Just amazing.
[02:55:18.660 --> 02:55:21.940] The Syrian girl, sad to see this happening to what was a great nation in our time right
[02:55:21.940 --> 02:55:23.180] before our eyes.
[02:55:23.180 --> 02:55:24.180] On our watch.
[02:55:24.180 --> 02:55:25.180] Yeah.
[02:55:25.180 --> 02:55:29.420] Says David, most voters for Trump voted in abject fear of having Lala and Obama in charge
[02:55:29.420 --> 02:55:30.540] of the new regime.
[02:55:30.540 --> 02:55:31.540] Most are not MAGA.
[02:55:32.420 --> 02:55:37.460] Well, yeah, but there's one and a half million people who like this force that's going to
[02:55:37.460 --> 02:55:39.780] be used by Democrats against us.
[02:55:39.780 --> 02:55:43.100] I mean, this isn't even projection.
[02:55:43.100 --> 02:55:45.460] We've already seen this happen with January the 6th.
[02:55:45.460 --> 02:55:46.740] These people will never learn.
[02:55:46.740 --> 02:55:51.420] The ones that it happened to are cheering this on to have it happen again.
[02:55:51.420 --> 02:55:52.420] Yeah.
[02:55:52.420 --> 02:55:56.980] And I bring this up frequently and whenever I mention it, I always see comments pushing
[02:55:56.980 --> 02:55:57.980] back against it.
[02:55:57.980 --> 02:56:01.380] But we need to get rid of first past the post voting.
[02:56:01.380 --> 02:56:02.660] That's what causes this whole thing.
[02:56:02.660 --> 02:56:05.780] It was, oh, well, they were just voting because they didn't want to have Lala and that would
[02:56:05.780 --> 02:56:10.700] be even worse because, you know, it's down to the two of them with rank choice.
[02:56:10.700 --> 02:56:12.060] I see comments whenever I.
[02:56:12.060 --> 02:56:16.100] Are you in Texas and are you tired of not being able to play blackjack roulette and
[02:56:16.100 --> 02:56:17.100] even craps?
[02:56:17.100 --> 02:56:18.100] Well, guess what?
[02:56:18.100 --> 02:56:19.100] I got the solution for you.

[02:57:11.360 --> 02:57:12.360] Play responsibly.
[02:57:12.360 --> 02:57:17.040] I mentioned it saying, oh, it's easier to rig thing is there are just elections that
[02:57:17.040 --> 02:57:20.840] are ranked choice, so it's possible to do it.
[02:57:20.840 --> 02:57:24.000] And they are already rigging the first pass the post.
[02:57:24.000 --> 02:57:25.640] So it's not like that's going to prevent.
[02:57:25.760 --> 02:57:31.640] Well, and the rigging lance starts not with the voting, not with counting the votes.
[02:57:31.640 --> 02:57:33.760] The rigging begins with ballot access.
[02:57:33.760 --> 02:57:37.480] I can tell you fighting that they do everything they can to keep you out of the ballots.
[02:57:37.480 --> 02:57:40.120] If they can't keep you off the ballots, then they keep you out of the debates and they
[02:57:40.120 --> 02:57:44.120] don't have debates, which is what we saw with Trump this last time.
[02:57:44.120 --> 02:57:48.240] Democrats inoculated him against any criticism from fellow Republicans.
[02:57:48.240 --> 02:57:53.340] He didn't have to go to the debates because, you know, he was the he was unfairly being
[02:57:53.380 --> 02:57:55.820] attacked by them. And he was unfairly attacked by them.
[02:57:55.820 --> 02:57:58.940] So what? What did he do to us in 2020?
[02:57:59.380 --> 02:58:05.140] That's the thing. I look at it and I understand people voting in fear against Lala
[02:58:05.140 --> 02:58:06.500] and Biden and that type of thing.
[02:58:06.500 --> 02:58:14.300] But let me say that I think that the most dangerous person is a person who gets behind
[02:58:14.300 --> 02:58:16.020] you in order to stab you in the back.
[02:58:16.460 --> 02:58:20.700] And that's one of the reasons why they were going to have a summary execution of these
[02:58:20.740 --> 02:58:25.780] spies who came in to sabotage infrastructure and they weren't civilian clothing.
[02:58:25.860 --> 02:58:27.500] You know, spies are killed right away.
[02:58:27.820 --> 02:58:29.900] Soldiers in uniform.
[02:58:30.140 --> 02:58:35.340] We try to have along with the Geneva Convention, we try to accommodate them because
[02:58:35.340 --> 02:58:37.780] they're coming at you in a uniform.
[02:58:38.100 --> 02:58:41.180] And so we treat them in a different way than we treat spies.
[02:58:41.580 --> 02:58:46.540] And I consider the people who stabbed us in the back, Trump and all of his people in
[02:58:46.580 --> 02:58:52.540] 2020, I consider them to be saboteurs and spies, not enemy combatants.
[02:58:52.540 --> 02:58:54.580] The Democrats are enemy combatants.
[02:58:54.980 --> 02:58:56.740] And yeah, they ought to be shot on the battlefield.
[02:58:56.740 --> 02:59:02.820] But the more dangerous columns that are out there is the fifth column that's inside
[02:59:02.820 --> 02:59:06.460] the city. It's not the four columns that are coming at you, but it's the fifth column
[02:59:06.460 --> 02:59:09.660] that's inside the city that you think is on your side.
[02:59:09.980 --> 02:59:11.260] That's the problem with Trump.
[02:59:12.260 --> 02:59:12.580] Yeah.
[02:59:12.580 --> 02:59:18.780] So what I was saying about the voting is it always comes down to that with controlled
[02:59:18.780 --> 02:59:23.580] candidates from the major parties when you have first passed the post, there's a term
[02:59:23.580 --> 02:59:29.220] for it. I forget what it is, but it's someone's law that it will always boil down to
[02:59:29.220 --> 02:59:30.660] this. It's inevitable.
[02:59:31.260 --> 02:59:36.780] There's an even better style of voting called, I believe it's approval voting where
[02:59:37.460 --> 02:59:44.020] you just give each candidate up to a certain number of points and then just total up the
[02:59:44.020 --> 02:59:47.380] points, which would be just as easy to do.
[02:59:47.580 --> 02:59:52.100] Tally up the votes as the existing first past the post.
[02:59:52.420 --> 02:59:56.460] Well, I agree. And when you look at if you want to get rid of first past the post, you
[02:59:56.460 --> 02:59:57.780] have more than two parties.
[02:59:58.340 --> 03:00:01.420] If you only have two parties, you're always going to have first past the post.
[03:00:01.700 --> 03:00:05.900] But first past the post means that it will always be down to two parties, because if
[03:00:05.900 --> 03:00:11.660] you have a third party, then it's going to everyone who would vote for that are instead
[03:00:11.660 --> 03:00:14.900] going to vote for the one that's more likely to win of the two big parties.
[03:00:14.940 --> 03:00:17.580] They don't have to. You have to make sure they've got a majority.
[03:00:17.860 --> 03:00:21.540] And so that's what you see in a parliamentary system where they allow multiple parties.
[03:00:21.540 --> 03:00:23.820] We don't allow multiple parties here in the United States.
[03:00:23.860 --> 03:00:29.020] The Democrats and Republicans have got so much power and corruption that they shut that
[03:00:29.020 --> 03:00:30.820] down a long, long time ago in America.
[03:00:31.140 --> 03:00:36.020] But if you've got multiple parties, whoever wins has to put together a coalition government.
[03:00:36.420 --> 03:00:38.180] And so there is some restraint on that.
[03:00:38.660 --> 03:00:40.900] But, yeah, let's go and finish these.
[03:00:41.100 --> 03:00:45.860] Yiburu, 2029, throughout history, every 80, 90 years has been a great human culling on the planet.
[03:00:45.900 --> 03:00:47.820] The last was in the 1940s.
[03:00:47.860 --> 03:00:49.100] Do the math.
[03:00:49.980 --> 03:00:54.700] Tunnel Lord 1337, it is also saying that your speech can be silenced when they support those
[03:00:54.700 --> 03:00:55.540] AI videos.
[03:00:55.540 --> 03:00:56.020] That's right.
[03:00:57.020 --> 03:01:02.140] Audi, MRR, MAGA cultists are cheering on martial law for themselves.
[03:01:02.340 --> 03:01:02.980] They'll get it.
[03:01:03.060 --> 03:01:07.780] I'm Marty says, DK, will that Chi-pocalypse vid be uploaded separately so it can be copied and pasted?
[03:01:07.780 --> 03:01:08.780] Yeah, you should post that on Twitter.
[03:01:08.780 --> 03:01:11.340] Yeah, I will. Yeah, we'll put that up on Twitter after the show.
[03:01:12.900 --> 03:01:15.420] First we had Chirac, now it's the Chi-pocalypse.
[03:01:16.780 --> 03:01:19.220] PX Mac, the media wants civil war.
[03:01:19.220 --> 03:01:20.700] It's losing control of the narrative.
[03:01:21.380 --> 03:01:24.540] I'm Marty, Trump blamed Biden's FBI for J6 infiltration.
[03:01:24.580 --> 03:01:26.380] Trump forgot he was still a prez on that day.
[03:01:26.500 --> 03:01:28.460] Trump has entered the Bidenheimer zone.
[03:01:31.260 --> 03:01:32.900] It's utterly ridiculous.
[03:01:32.980 --> 03:01:39.180] Just either he's completely ineffective and couldn't root out the problem people in his
[03:01:39.180 --> 03:01:45.420] administration. And as such, you know, he's not worth having in or he's part of their team.
[03:01:45.620 --> 03:01:48.300] And the Trump people are completely incapable of seeing that.
[03:01:48.300 --> 03:01:51.860] Chevkin says, Biden FBI, Trump really is senile.
[03:01:52.860 --> 03:02:00.580] Yeah, PX Mac says, Gaza City's open air prisons, Dougda 007, we could even call them
[03:02:00.580 --> 03:02:02.140] reservations. That's right.
[03:02:02.140 --> 03:02:03.860] Yeah, that's right. Talk about that.
[03:02:03.860 --> 03:02:08.820] You know, when you look at concentration camps, as I've said, didn't start with the Nazis.
[03:02:08.820 --> 03:02:11.060] It started with the American government and the Indians.
[03:02:12.100 --> 03:02:13.780] It's exactly what all this stuff is.
[03:02:14.460 --> 03:02:17.900] It just keeps coming back around because human nature doesn't change.
[03:02:18.380 --> 03:02:20.460] And so politics fundamentally doesn't change either.
[03:02:21.380 --> 03:02:24.300] That's a that's one of the things so many people.
[03:02:25.980 --> 03:02:31.460] Don't understand is that human nature is inherently sinful, it's inherently bad, and you
[03:02:31.460 --> 03:02:34.180] cannot trust people with power.
[03:02:34.580 --> 03:02:37.860] You have to continually any power you give them, you have to watch them with it.
[03:02:38.060 --> 03:02:43.220] That's right. And it's just if you don't understand that, you cannot be trusted with
[03:02:43.220 --> 03:02:49.380] politics. Nibiru 2029, the social social engineers are masters of herding sheeple.
[03:02:50.140 --> 03:02:51.420] Unlimited Hangout series.
[03:02:51.420 --> 03:02:54.220] The PayPal presidency is extremely informative.
[03:02:54.340 --> 03:02:57.260] Yeah, they do good work and it's very, very detailed, very detailed.
[03:02:57.860 --> 03:03:01.260] Nibiru 2020, Audi MRR, police need to wake up.
[03:03:01.300 --> 03:03:03.820] The Predators class plans do not include them.
[03:03:04.340 --> 03:03:05.780] Yeah, that's the thing.
[03:03:06.140 --> 03:03:10.180] I've always said that if these people, you know, the elite, whatever you want to call
[03:03:10.300 --> 03:03:14.140] the mega rich were to succeed in their goal of basically getting rid of all of us, they
[03:03:14.140 --> 03:03:16.180] would immediately start plotting against each other.
[03:03:16.500 --> 03:03:18.500] They cannot stand other people.
[03:03:18.660 --> 03:03:21.180] They want to be the only person left.
[03:03:22.100 --> 03:03:26.420] Jerry Alatalo, Trump administration, Arch Technocrats, Musk, Teal, Vance, Yarvin,
[03:03:26.420 --> 03:03:32.260] Sachs, Andreessen, Kratzios, Lutnik, Ellison combined at worth one point two trillion
[03:03:32.260 --> 03:03:34.700] dollars. PX Mac.
[03:03:35.180 --> 03:03:38.980] Funny how evil people always reverse the intent of their objectives.
[03:03:39.420 --> 03:03:43.140] What worries me about Teal saying how much he opposes the Antichrist.
[03:03:43.140 --> 03:03:49.900] Yeah, it's like Trump saying that he opposes a globalist, isn't it?
[03:03:50.220 --> 03:03:51.700] That's the same thing.
[03:03:52.140 --> 03:03:53.180] He is a globalist.
[03:03:53.180 --> 03:04:01.420] And, you know, it's Teal is in terms of conduct is the Antichrist.
[03:04:01.460 --> 03:04:02.940] It's truly amazing.
[03:04:03.780 --> 03:04:08.860] Just the old Patriot Act, double think war is peace.
[03:04:09.900 --> 03:04:11.820] I love this Nobel war prize.
[03:04:11.820 --> 03:04:12.860] That's what he deserves.
[03:04:12.860 --> 03:04:16.140] If they got that, well, he's able to change the Defense Department's name.
[03:04:16.140 --> 03:04:19.460] Maybe he can get the Nobel people to change their name and give him a prize.
[03:04:19.460 --> 03:04:20.300] After all, right.
[03:04:20.740 --> 03:04:22.100] You can get the Nobel war prize.
[03:04:22.100 --> 03:04:23.460] Maybe you can get a participation.
[03:04:24.060 --> 03:04:25.020] What's going on, Texas?
[03:04:25.060 --> 03:04:25.940] It's Bluff here.
[03:04:25.980 --> 03:04:29.820] Do you like playing casino style games like blackjack, Bachra, craps and slots?

[03:05:25.740 --> 03:05:26.140] Yeah.
[03:05:26.420 --> 03:05:28.140] Karen Carpenter, 27.
[03:05:28.380 --> 03:05:29.580] Good to see you, Karen Carpenter.
[03:05:29.580 --> 03:05:30.460] Hope you're doing well.
[03:05:30.460 --> 03:05:34.140] Technology such as the television was used as a weapon from its beginning.
[03:05:34.140 --> 03:05:34.460] Yes.
[03:05:34.660 --> 03:05:38.700] The difference is, is that when you look at, you know, the newspapers, of course,
[03:05:39.740 --> 03:05:40.140] what was it?
[03:05:40.140 --> 03:05:44.180] Hirsch said that he could deliver a war for Wilson and did.
[03:05:44.820 --> 03:05:47.420] And so you look at the propaganda that comes from the newspapers.
[03:05:47.420 --> 03:05:50.660] And then when they started doing radio, made it much more powerful.
[03:05:50.980 --> 03:05:53.780] And when they started doing television, more powerful still.
[03:05:54.100 --> 03:06:00.580] Now with the internet, which was designed by a DARPA psychologist, they are not
[03:06:00.580 --> 03:06:06.100] only able to reach people with their own propaganda like this and, you know, as a
[03:06:06.100 --> 03:06:11.180] joke or whatever, but they're able to measure your response to that and fine
[03:06:11.260 --> 03:06:11.700] tune it.
[03:06:11.740 --> 03:06:13.740] That's what the internet has brought to them.
[03:06:14.100 --> 03:06:14.820] The ability.
[03:06:14.820 --> 03:06:20.060] And of course, AI as well, the ability to not only give you the propaganda, but to
[03:06:20.060 --> 03:06:24.380] know if you saw it and to know if you agree with it or disagree with it so they
[03:06:24.380 --> 03:06:27.020] can fine tune it, that's what's made it so dangerous.
[03:06:27.340 --> 03:06:30.140] And of course, Karen Carpenter is part of nights of the storm.
[03:06:30.140 --> 03:06:33.500] You can find all that info at nights of the storm.com.
[03:06:33.500 --> 03:06:37.780] They have a great resource there for finding out when all the friendly shows
[03:06:37.780 --> 03:06:41.780] are, whether it's nights of the storm, this one, or guards liberty conspiracy.
[03:06:42.100 --> 03:06:44.540] You can find that on nights of the storm.com.
[03:06:45.060 --> 03:06:47.620] Hero May says Nobel war prize.
[03:06:47.860 --> 03:06:48.500] That's right.
[03:06:48.620 --> 03:06:49.500] Trump burger.
[03:06:49.860 --> 03:06:53.380] He would have definitely won if they had a category for mass death.
[03:06:54.380 --> 03:06:57.660] Christian constitutional conservative Trump said that she told him he deserved
[03:06:57.660 --> 03:06:58.220] the prize.
[03:06:58.220 --> 03:06:59.380] Has that been confirmed?
[03:06:59.820 --> 03:07:02.380] Well, she's sucking up.
[03:07:02.420 --> 03:07:06.540] Well, I, I would guess that that would be true since she is herself in a
[03:07:06.540 --> 03:07:08.020] position of being a U S agent.
[03:07:08.060 --> 03:07:14.020] If she's going to suck up to him and publicly say that these shootings of
[03:07:14.740 --> 03:07:18.860] these boats under the allegation that it's part of a war against a drug cartel,
[03:07:18.860 --> 03:07:20.060] that is absolutely false.
[03:07:20.060 --> 03:07:21.180] And she's going to lie about that.
[03:07:21.220 --> 03:07:23.060] That should lie to him and flatter him.
[03:07:23.300 --> 03:07:28.020] Putin is flattering him in terms of this Nobel prize stuff.
[03:07:28.500 --> 03:07:32.700] And so anybody that wants anything from him, they know how to get to him as
[03:07:32.700 --> 03:07:33.220] flattery.
[03:07:34.980 --> 03:07:35.300] Yeah.
[03:07:35.300 --> 03:07:39.620] His ego makes him very easy to manipulate one way or the other.
[03:07:39.700 --> 03:07:41.140] You know how he'll react.
[03:07:41.620 --> 03:07:45.220] The real octo spook, when you have to disguise taxes on Americans, lie and
[03:07:45.220 --> 03:07:46.300] call them foreign tariffs.
[03:07:46.300 --> 03:07:49.900] You, you, you respect for the tariff is already non-existent.
[03:07:50.540 --> 03:07:51.260] Real octo spook.
[03:07:51.260 --> 03:07:55.540] Obama approved the Nobel peace prize is a worthless POS Trump deserves it.
[03:07:57.020 --> 03:07:57.620] That's right.
[03:07:58.300 --> 03:07:59.900] Up there in good company.
[03:08:00.460 --> 03:08:02.140] Mike Lindell just lost his suit.
[03:08:02.620 --> 03:08:03.780] I guess smart Mac gods.
[03:08:04.580 --> 03:08:09.620] I'm sorry to, um, he seems like a nice guy, even though he's unbelievably naive.
[03:08:09.620 --> 03:08:10.900] I think he is genuine.
[03:08:11.460 --> 03:08:12.860] And I think he's been fooled into this.
[03:08:12.860 --> 03:08:16.060] One person says, you can see that he's screaming into that pillow.
[03:08:17.900 --> 03:08:18.900] I feel sorry for him.
[03:08:19.020 --> 03:08:22.620] He had a tough life and he overcame with my pillow and then he got completely
[03:08:22.620 --> 03:08:25.100] suckered in by all this Trump stuff.
[03:08:25.100 --> 03:08:26.500] And so I do feel sorry for him.
[03:08:26.500 --> 03:08:28.300] I felt sorry for the January to six people.
[03:08:28.860 --> 03:08:30.900] Uh, I don't think they deserved what was done to them.
[03:08:30.900 --> 03:08:33.220] And many of them still don't understand it.
[03:08:33.220 --> 03:08:35.420] I wonder if Mike Lindell still understands it.
[03:08:35.660 --> 03:08:36.020] Yeah.
[03:08:36.140 --> 03:08:40.300] Who knows Christian constitutional conservative, a criminal network known as
[03:08:40.300 --> 03:08:43.580] the cartel of the sons operates in Venezuela, though it is not a cartel in
[03:08:43.580 --> 03:08:47.380] the conventional sense, instead the term refers to a loose decentralized
[03:08:47.380 --> 03:08:50.780] network of corrupt military and political officials who facilitate drug
[03:08:50.780 --> 03:08:52.980] trafficking and other criminal activities.
[03:08:53.020 --> 03:08:54.260] I don't know if that's true or not.
[03:08:54.900 --> 03:08:58.900] Quite frankly, the cartel, the son sounds to me like an invention of the government.
[03:08:58.900 --> 03:09:02.740] As a matter of fact, uh, I've reported that, uh, many people have said that it's
[03:09:02.740 --> 03:09:08.260] kind of interesting that trend day, a rugra or whatever, the trendy gang was
[03:09:08.260 --> 03:09:12.980] an invention, an invention of the American government to start with.
[03:09:12.980 --> 03:09:20.580] And remember they created the Mujahideen, which is also Al Qaeda and ISIS and all
[03:09:20.580 --> 03:09:24.020] the rest of the stuff in this Al Nusra gang that is killing Christians
[03:09:24.020 --> 03:09:25.500] and everybody in Syria.
[03:09:25.740 --> 03:09:28.180] So our government does that kind of thing.
[03:09:28.580 --> 03:09:30.580] So it should always be a possibility with you.
[03:09:30.820 --> 03:09:34.300] And all this stuff about cartel, the sons is a narrative that was created
[03:09:34.300 --> 03:09:38.220] by the Trump administration to create a justification for what they're
[03:09:38.220 --> 03:09:41.700] criminally and illegally doing their gang of thugs.
[03:09:42.340 --> 03:09:43.260] That's all you need to know.
[03:09:43.260 --> 03:09:45.860] The gang of thugs is in Washington.
[03:09:48.140 --> 03:09:51.380] Audi MRR responding to Christian constitutional conservatives says
[03:09:51.380 --> 03:09:54.140] there's a map that indicates where drugs come from in that part of the world.
[03:09:54.300 --> 03:09:56.820] Venezuela is not where the drugs are coming from.
[03:09:56.860 --> 03:09:58.100] Everybody understands that.
[03:09:59.180 --> 03:09:59.500] Yeah.
[03:09:59.900 --> 03:10:04.180] Audi MRR, BB basically said that terrorists attack will happen in New York,
[03:10:04.180 --> 03:10:05.700] Boston, Mar-a-Lago and others.
[03:10:05.900 --> 03:10:07.900] It will be Israel doing it, but they will blame Iran.
[03:10:07.900 --> 03:10:10.140] A blind man can see this coming from a mile away.
[03:10:12.100 --> 03:10:12.700] Absolutely.
[03:10:12.900 --> 03:10:14.300] IRS machine gun.
[03:10:14.340 --> 03:10:15.460] Thank you very much.
[03:10:15.460 --> 03:10:16.260] We appreciate it.
[03:10:16.300 --> 03:10:19.420] Wonder if Trump has looked on Pam's desk for his Nobel prize.
[03:10:20.460 --> 03:10:20.980] That's right.
[03:10:21.220 --> 03:10:22.500] There's a lot of stuff on that desk.
[03:10:22.500 --> 03:10:24.220] Maybe it just got lost.
[03:10:24.540 --> 03:10:25.900] Nibiru 2029.
[03:10:25.900 --> 03:10:30.220] There's thousands of secret laws written into the CIA or into the ACA.
[03:10:30.340 --> 03:10:31.620] Oh, bomba care.
[03:10:32.060 --> 03:10:32.380] Yeah.
[03:10:32.780 --> 03:10:35.260] They have to pass them to see what's in it, but then they don't ever
[03:10:35.340 --> 03:10:36.780] bother going back and checking.
[03:10:37.860 --> 03:10:38.620] I don't want to read that.
[03:10:38.620 --> 03:10:39.340] That's boring.
[03:10:40.020 --> 03:10:41.260] Nibiru 2029.
[03:10:41.260 --> 03:10:43.900] Again, don't buy your ammo from Walmart, Dick's or Cal Ranch.
[03:10:43.900 --> 03:10:44.820] There's others as well.
[03:10:44.820 --> 03:10:48.300] All three report ammo sales to the feds by using cash only.
[03:10:48.300 --> 03:10:50.580] Credit card and ammo purchases are also reported.
[03:10:51.860 --> 03:10:55.740] Audi MRR, Trump is banking on an ICE agent or National Guard soldier
[03:10:55.740 --> 03:10:57.340] injury or worse by a member of the public.
[03:10:57.460 --> 03:11:01.300] He needs that one event to get his insurrection act agenda to the next phase.
[03:11:01.460 --> 03:11:02.420] They may stage one.
[03:11:02.740 --> 03:11:03.060] Yes.
[03:11:03.060 --> 03:11:03.300] Yeah.
[03:11:03.420 --> 03:11:03.820] Yes.
[03:11:04.900 --> 03:11:05.340] Okay.
[03:11:05.340 --> 03:11:06.740] Well, we got one more.
[03:11:06.780 --> 03:11:07.820] Might as well go ahead and read that one.
[03:11:07.820 --> 03:11:08.420] S.A.
[03:11:08.420 --> 03:11:09.580] Miller, one, two, three.
[03:11:09.580 --> 03:11:10.540] Evil is evil.
[03:11:10.540 --> 03:11:12.100] There is no two party system.
[03:11:12.100 --> 03:11:13.620] They're all on the same team.
[03:11:13.820 --> 03:11:16.580] You only get to vote to make you think you are contributing.
[03:11:16.660 --> 03:11:17.180] That's right.
[03:11:17.660 --> 03:11:19.860] Let's talk about this before we take a break because we're getting
[03:11:19.860 --> 03:11:20.740] close to the end of the show.
[03:11:20.740 --> 03:11:21.940] And I did want to talk about this.
[03:11:22.740 --> 03:11:26.420] We got a Tennessee man who has been arrested in connection to a
[03:11:26.420 --> 03:11:28.740] Charlie Kirk social media post.
[03:11:28.900 --> 03:11:30.060] Arrested folks.
[03:11:30.620 --> 03:11:33.100] And he's being held under massive bail.
[03:11:33.140 --> 03:11:33.620] What was it?
[03:11:33.860 --> 03:11:35.060] $2 million, I think.
[03:11:35.060 --> 03:11:35.220] Yeah.
[03:11:35.220 --> 03:11:36.260] $2 million bail.
[03:11:36.260 --> 03:11:37.780] For a tweet, a joke.
[03:11:38.340 --> 03:11:38.780] A joke.
[03:11:38.780 --> 03:11:41.340] And it is quite clear what is going on.
[03:11:41.340 --> 03:11:44.420] He quoted President Trump and because he put up a meme that
[03:11:44.420 --> 03:11:47.900] quoted President Trump, they came after him.
[03:11:47.900 --> 03:11:49.700] They said, well, you know, we can't arrest somebody for
[03:11:49.700 --> 03:11:53.460] hating Charlie Kirk, but we can pretend that you're threatening
[03:11:53.460 --> 03:11:55.540] a school, which is what they did.
[03:11:56.140 --> 03:11:58.340] A Tennessee man is the first to be arrested for social media
[03:11:58.340 --> 03:12:01.100] posts made regarding the assassination of Charlie Kirk.
[03:12:01.860 --> 03:12:05.980] And again, when we look at this, Charlie Kirk was about going
[03:12:05.980 --> 03:12:09.700] to these places and engaging in debate and standing for the
[03:12:09.700 --> 03:12:10.460] First Amendment.
[03:12:10.500 --> 03:12:13.300] If he was about anything, that was, I have my disagreements
[03:12:13.300 --> 03:12:14.020] with Charlie Kirk.
[03:12:14.340 --> 03:12:16.220] I have a lot of disagreements with Charlie Kirk.
[03:12:17.100 --> 03:12:20.100] I've chosen not to go into them right at this moment, but I
[03:12:20.100 --> 03:12:23.180] got to say that these people who are their virtue signaling to
[03:12:23.180 --> 03:12:27.380] their base, that Charlie Kirk is the be all and end all, and
[03:12:27.380 --> 03:12:29.380] we're going to punish anybody that says anything negative
[03:12:29.380 --> 03:12:33.860] about him, they are the antithesis of what the guy did.
[03:12:34.460 --> 03:12:35.740] And that's what we're seeing here.
[03:12:36.940 --> 03:12:42.340] Larry Bouchard, 61, from Lexington, Tennessee, is a former
[03:12:42.380 --> 03:12:46.620] police officer, and he was arrested September 22nd and
[03:12:46.620 --> 03:12:50.780] charged with threats of mass violence on school property and
[03:12:50.780 --> 03:12:54.940] activities after posting a photo and a Facebook comments of a
[03:12:54.940 --> 03:12:57.180] Perry County community group page.
[03:12:58.260 --> 03:13:01.140] The sheriff there told the Tennessee in a statement that
[03:13:01.140 --> 03:13:04.180] participants on the page were planning to host a Charlie Kirk
[03:13:04.260 --> 03:13:04.820] vigil.
[03:13:05.940 --> 03:13:09.380] Bouchard posted multiple photos in the comments referencing
[03:13:09.380 --> 03:13:13.940] Charlie Kirk's death, which the sheriff said were hate memes,
[03:13:14.220 --> 03:13:17.020] but he said, well, they're not against the law, and we'd have
[03:13:17.020 --> 03:13:18.620] to recognize that as free speech.
[03:13:18.620 --> 03:13:21.260] So we twisted something else that he had to say.
[03:13:21.860 --> 03:13:24.100] One image, however, caught their attention.
[03:13:24.740 --> 03:13:27.380] In it, you have Trump saying, we've got to get over it.
[03:13:28.140 --> 03:13:32.420] And this was a direct quote from Trump after a January, 2024
[03:13:32.420 --> 03:13:36.980] school shooting in Perry, Iowa, that left one dead and seven
[03:13:36.980 --> 03:13:37.460] wounded.
[03:13:38.140 --> 03:13:40.940] So after school shooting, Trump said, we've got to get over it.
[03:13:41.580 --> 03:13:43.620] And that school shooting was in Perry, Iowa.
[03:13:43.660 --> 03:13:48.060] Now this is Perry High School in Perry County, Tennessee.
[03:13:48.820 --> 03:13:51.620] And so Bouchard's picture consists of an image of Trump,
[03:13:51.620 --> 03:13:55.420] along with a quote of attributed to Trump on the Perry High
[03:13:55.420 --> 03:13:59.540] School mass shooting one day after, but it doesn't have the
[03:13:59.540 --> 03:14:00.500] state of Iowa there.
[03:14:00.500 --> 03:14:01.940] It doesn't say Perry, Iowa.
[03:14:02.420 --> 03:14:05.660] It just says Perry and it's Trump.
[03:14:05.740 --> 03:14:06.940] And it says, we've got to get over it.
[03:14:07.500 --> 03:14:09.740] Now, how is, we've got to get over it.
[03:14:09.740 --> 03:14:13.580] How is that a threat to do violence to a school?
[03:14:14.100 --> 03:14:19.500] So the school, just to recap, the school has got a memorial or
[03:14:19.500 --> 03:14:21.620] some kind of Charlie Kirk event that's coming up.
[03:14:22.220 --> 03:14:26.380] And he's saying, you know, this is a, you got to move on or
[03:14:26.380 --> 03:14:28.140] whatever, stop making so much out of this.
[03:14:28.140 --> 03:14:30.220] I don't know what the other posts were about, but then he
[03:14:30.220 --> 03:14:33.140] puts up a quote from Trump saying, we got to get over it.
[03:14:33.780 --> 03:14:37.740] And that was Trump talking about people being killed at a school.
[03:14:38.020 --> 03:14:41.820] So because of that, now this sheriff has construed that as
[03:14:41.820 --> 03:14:43.460] grounds for arresting him.
[03:14:44.180 --> 03:14:48.380] The photo is topped with a phrase, this seems relevant today.
[03:14:49.020 --> 03:14:50.940] Like maybe you should get over this and move on.
[03:14:51.780 --> 03:14:55.140] A cross-referencing of the photo done by the Tennessean found this
[03:14:55.140 --> 03:14:58.900] image has been posted numerous times across multiple social
[03:14:58.900 --> 03:15:03.260] media platforms, not connected with Bouchardt going back to 2024.
[03:15:03.260 --> 03:15:07.340] He did not craft this thing specifically for this event, because
[03:15:07.340 --> 03:15:08.460] that's the other thing they're saying.
[03:15:08.460 --> 03:15:10.980] They said, well, okay, there you can see it right there.
[03:15:12.140 --> 03:15:15.140] Uh, Donald Trump on the Perry high school mass shooting.
[03:15:15.380 --> 03:15:17.100] One day after we got to get over it.
[03:15:17.660 --> 03:15:22.500] Now that picture, he did not create that meme, but they're coming back and say,
[03:15:22.620 --> 03:15:26.660] well, because you said Perry in a high school that we think that you're
[03:15:26.660 --> 03:15:29.540] referring to our Perry high school.
[03:15:29.580 --> 03:15:31.460] No, it's been put all over the internet.
[03:15:32.340 --> 03:15:37.660] Arrested and in jail with $2 million bail for posting this.
[03:15:37.740 --> 03:15:38.100] Yeah.
[03:15:38.220 --> 03:15:38.940] Isn't that amazing?
[03:15:39.220 --> 03:15:39.900] Isn't that amazing?
[03:15:40.780 --> 03:15:45.260] Um, so Bouchardt posted the picture to indicate or to make the audience think
[03:15:45.260 --> 03:15:50.340] that it was referencing our Perry high school, said this sheriff, this
[03:15:50.340 --> 03:15:51.660] sheriff needs to be defeated.
[03:15:52.540 --> 03:15:55.980] Uh, this led teachers, parents, and students to co-include that he was talking
[03:15:55.980 --> 03:15:58.260] about a hypothetical shooting at one of our schools.
[03:15:58.940 --> 03:15:59.940] Well, then that's on them.
[03:15:59.940 --> 03:16:05.660] If they're that stupid, uh, you can't start arresting people because
[03:16:05.660 --> 03:16:10.100] stupid people are offended by something that is not about them at all.
[03:16:10.380 --> 03:16:13.780] Investigators believe that Bouchardt was fully aware of the fear that his post
[03:16:13.780 --> 03:16:17.420] would cause and intentionally sought to create hysteria within the community.
[03:16:17.860 --> 03:16:21.180] No, that is, um, not the case at all.
[03:16:21.220 --> 03:16:23.180] What he's saying is move on from this stuff.
[03:16:23.180 --> 03:16:28.380] Why keep going back to the well for Charlie Kirk waves of firings and
[03:16:28.380 --> 03:16:30.860] suspensions have already occurred across the country in connection with the
[03:16:30.860 --> 03:16:35.740] individuals, social media posts about Kirk as conservative politicians and
[03:16:35.740 --> 03:16:37.660] influencers push for a crackdown.
[03:16:37.660 --> 03:16:44.380] I'll say this, a crackdown on free speech, a Phoenix sports writer, a
[03:16:44.380 --> 03:16:48.340] university of Mississippi faculty member, school employees in Idaho,
[03:16:48.380 --> 03:16:52.460] Indiana, South Carolina, emergency workers, a theater professor, and
[03:16:52.460 --> 03:16:56.380] other university employees in Tennessee and U S Marine Corps recruiter.
[03:16:56.380 --> 03:16:59.860] And many more have been among the professionals fired and suspended or
[03:16:59.860 --> 03:17:02.780] put on leave over social media posts that some found offensive.
[03:17:03.660 --> 03:17:08.140] Uh, so these comments are protected free speech, although the first
[03:17:08.140 --> 03:17:12.740] amendment does not inoculate people against actions that private employers
[03:17:12.740 --> 03:17:16.020] would take, but Bouchardt's situation is unique.
[03:17:16.460 --> 03:17:21.300] He was charged under a state law that was passed in July, 2024 that makes
[03:17:21.300 --> 03:17:26.260] it a class E felony to make threats against schools.
[03:17:26.980 --> 03:17:30.540] And this is a really bad law that we have here in Tennessee, the law,
[03:17:30.540 --> 03:17:35.860] which has faced accusations of being overbroad in its language has ensnared
[03:17:35.860 --> 03:17:41.900] many during the 2024 fiscal year, 518 children in Tennessee were arrested
[03:17:41.900 --> 03:17:46.980] with this law and 71 of the children were between the ages of seven and 11.
[03:17:47.020 --> 03:17:49.860] Do they really think that these kids are threatening the school?
[03:17:49.860 --> 03:17:50.980] But that's the way it's been used.
[03:17:51.380 --> 03:17:54.820] And that's being used against the guy because he criticized
[03:17:54.820 --> 03:17:56.420] an event, said you need to get over it.
