[01:27.200 --> 01:38.400]  In a world of deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act. It's The David Knight Show.
[01:44.800 --> 01:50.800]  As the clock strikes 13, it's Monday, December 29th, here of Our Lord 2025.
[01:51.600 --> 01:55.040]  We won't be saying 2025 very much longer.
[01:55.040 --> 01:57.840]  I hope you had a much better Christmas than Trump.
[01:58.480 --> 02:02.720]  He's been raging on social media plotting for more wars.
[02:03.840 --> 02:07.360]  It must be the effect of the 12 days of Epstein.
[02:08.640 --> 02:11.120]  And the documents you weren't supposed to see.
[02:11.760 --> 02:14.560]  Yeah, well, we'll talk about what's up for the new year.
[02:15.920 --> 02:17.360]  Happy new wars!
[02:17.360 --> 02:19.360]  That looks like that's what's on the menu.
[02:19.360 --> 02:25.280]  Also, there's some very important information about silver that we're going to talk about.
[02:26.080 --> 02:27.600]  It's been a great year for silver.
[02:28.720 --> 02:33.680]  But there may be some things that you need to be aware of that you might want to defend against.
[02:33.680 --> 02:38.320]  And speaking of defense, they've got Bill Gates and Albert Borla,
[02:39.040 --> 02:41.360]  Mark Ruda, the usual suspects, you know.
[02:42.160 --> 02:45.760]  They've actually got a lawsuit in the Netherlands.
[02:46.640 --> 02:53.120]  And this lawsuit is about the bioweapon being, the Trump shot being a bioweapon,
[02:53.760 --> 02:55.200]  as I've said for the longest time.
[02:56.000 --> 02:57.280]  So we're going to talk about that as well.
[02:57.280 --> 02:57.760]  Stay with us.
[02:57.760 --> 02:58.640]  We'll be right back.
[03:10.560 --> 03:13.360]  Well, I really do hope that you had a nice Christmas.
[03:13.360 --> 03:13.760]  We did.
[03:13.760 --> 03:15.200]  We had the time off, as you know.
[03:15.920 --> 03:18.960]  And I couldn't very well make my staff work
[03:20.560 --> 03:25.120]  days that Trump was giving the people in Washington, D.C. off.
[03:25.120 --> 03:27.920]  I mean, Trump hates the federal workers.
[03:27.920 --> 03:31.120]  And he gave them Wednesday and Friday off last week.
[03:31.120 --> 03:34.160]  So I actually love my workers here.
[03:34.160 --> 03:38.640]  So I'm not going to make them work on those days that Trump gives them off.
[03:38.640 --> 03:41.760]  But I hope you had a good holiday weekend.
[03:41.760 --> 03:43.440]  It was a good time of rest for us.
[03:44.000 --> 03:48.000]  Well, Trump, unfortunately, wasn't resting himself.
[03:48.000 --> 03:53.120]  He delivered a deranged threat to TV networks in his Yuletide Meltdown.
[03:54.160 --> 03:56.400]  Christmas Ba Trump Bug.
[03:56.400 --> 03:59.280]  Yeah, that's a headline from Daily Beast.
[03:59.280 --> 04:02.560]  He wanted Stephen Colbert put to sleep.
[04:05.520 --> 04:06.640]  Euthanize him, I guess.
[04:07.760 --> 04:11.920]  Trump was not really in the Christmas spirit of peace
[04:11.920 --> 04:13.360]  on Earth and goodwill to all.
[04:13.360 --> 04:16.640]  As a matter of fact, he's not really looking at peace on Earth either.
[04:17.520 --> 04:18.560]  When you look at.
[04:20.240 --> 04:24.400]  Okay, so he's got Zelensky at Mar-a-Lago trying to tamp that down.
[04:24.400 --> 04:25.200]  And that's a good thing.
[04:25.200 --> 04:27.200]  I don't want to have a war with Russia.
[04:27.200 --> 04:28.720]  Don't want to have World War Three.
[04:29.440 --> 04:30.080]  Europe does.
[04:30.800 --> 04:33.120]  But I'm glad that Trump is pushing back on that.
[04:33.120 --> 04:34.320]  I hope they get that settled.
[04:35.120 --> 04:39.840]  However, if you look at these other places, Venezuela, Nigeria, other places,
[04:39.840 --> 04:42.240]  Trump is the warmonger in chief.
[04:43.040 --> 04:46.320]  Iran is now back on the menu as well.
[04:46.320 --> 04:47.680]  We'll talk about that coming up.
[04:48.480 --> 04:52.560]  So he had a, as Daily Beast calls it, a fiery festive rant
[04:53.680 --> 04:56.400]  in the wee hours of Christmas Eve.
[04:57.360 --> 04:59.520]  Ends it with Merry Christmas, however, right?
[05:00.240 --> 05:03.440]  Launched one of his frequent tirades against American TV networks,
[05:03.440 --> 05:04.880]  claiming that they were all against him.
[05:05.840 --> 05:08.080]  CBS seemed to pander to the president's whims
[05:08.080 --> 05:11.280]  by spiking a story about the Trump administration deporting
[05:11.280 --> 05:14.720]  Venezuelan migrants to a notorious mega prison in El Salvador,
[05:14.720 --> 05:19.040]  just three hours before it was due to air on Sunday's 60 Minutes.
[05:19.760 --> 05:22.480]  And of course, that's the new gatekeeper, Barry Weiss,
[05:23.760 --> 05:25.920]  that took that on to do that herself.
[05:26.880 --> 05:31.040]  Lowering the journalistic standards there beyond what we have seen before.
[05:31.040 --> 05:36.400]  But again, understand that 60 Minutes was never really independent,
[05:36.400 --> 05:38.080]  not really a muckraker.
[05:38.080 --> 05:39.600]  They always had an agenda.
[05:40.480 --> 05:44.560]  It's just now that the agenda is pretty obviously in favor
[05:45.200 --> 05:50.160]  of the violence that Trump is doing everywhere, internally as well as foreign.
[05:51.120 --> 05:55.680]  So he said, if the network newscasts in their late night shows
[05:56.320 --> 05:59.920]  are almost 100% negative to President Donald J. Trump,
[06:00.560 --> 06:02.320]  always referring to himself on third party,
[06:03.200 --> 06:06.160]  then shouldn't their valuable broadcast licenses be terminated?
[06:06.160 --> 06:06.880]  I say yes.
[06:08.720 --> 06:12.240]  This has become a trope for him.
[06:12.880 --> 06:16.240]  He thinks that he can just censor whoever he wishes.
[06:16.240 --> 06:21.040]  It's very interesting to see this battle shaping up in free speech.
[06:21.040 --> 06:24.720]  You've got Theory Breton, I call him conspiracy theory,
[06:25.520 --> 06:29.360]  who came to the US and threatened Musk when Musk bought Twitter.
[06:29.360 --> 06:30.640]  Said, you'll do what we say.
[06:30.640 --> 06:33.120]  And he was the guy that was really pushing through this DSA,
[06:33.840 --> 06:34.960]  Digital Services Act.
[06:34.960 --> 06:39.200]  And of course, they have now moved against Musk with purported fines.
[06:39.920 --> 06:43.920]  And so the Trump administration pushed back on that.
[06:43.920 --> 06:44.640]  Good.
[06:44.640 --> 06:44.960]  Good.
[06:44.960 --> 06:45.840]  I'm glad they did that.
[06:46.400 --> 06:52.080]  The problem is the Trump administration is guilty as well of censorship.
[06:52.080 --> 06:54.320]  And we're going to talk about that coming up.
[06:54.320 --> 06:57.520]  It is rank hypocrisy, what they're doing.
[06:57.520 --> 07:04.160]  How do you criticize the European Union when you decide that you are going to unilaterally
[07:04.800 --> 07:09.120]  shut down news organizations or bankrupt them with your lawfare lawsuits?
[07:11.040 --> 07:12.480]  And it's not just that either.
[07:12.480 --> 07:15.520]  It's a censorship that's being done for the state of Israel.
[07:15.520 --> 07:19.040]  You're not allowed to criticize a foreign government.
[07:20.160 --> 07:22.080]  What is that in the Constitution?
[07:22.720 --> 07:25.280]  Is there an exception in the First Amendment that I didn't catch
[07:25.920 --> 07:29.360]  about not criticizing certain foreign governments?
[07:30.320 --> 07:37.360]  Well, though Kober's program is currently in reruns, Trump was really torqued out about it.
[07:37.360 --> 07:40.080]  And again, he gets on his high horse about it.
[07:40.640 --> 07:46.640]  And Barry Weiss censoring that at 60 Minutes, the reporter behind the spiked story,
[07:47.360 --> 07:52.640]  said if the standards for airing a story becomes the government must agree to be interviewed,
[07:53.200 --> 07:56.640]  then the government effectively gains control over the 60 Minutes broadcast.
[07:57.280 --> 08:00.560]  We go from an investigative powerhouse to a stenographer for the state.
[08:01.600 --> 08:05.360]  Well, they've been a stenographer for the state at CBS for a very long time.
[08:05.360 --> 08:09.120]  During the days of Walter Cronkite, it's called Operation Mockingbird.
[08:10.320 --> 08:12.320]  They hand you the script and you say it.
[08:12.320 --> 08:13.760]  And they weren't the only one either.
[08:14.560 --> 08:20.560]  And the days after Kimmel's show was suspended, he claimed 97% of the networks are against him.
[08:21.360 --> 08:25.280]  Well, he increased the ratings of Jimmy Kimmel.
[08:25.280 --> 08:28.640]  And then, not to be forgotten, he came after Thomas Massie.
[08:28.640 --> 08:32.400]  And this is the most amazing thing that Trump did, I think, over the weekend.
[08:33.120 --> 08:35.280]  He called Thomas Massie a lowlife.
[08:36.800 --> 08:39.600]  A lowlife for pushing to release the...
[08:39.600 --> 08:44.800]  Are you in Texas? And are you tired of not being able to play blackjack, roulette, and even craps?
[08:44.800 --> 08:46.560]  Well, guess what? I got the solution for you.

[09:40.080 --> 09:41.280]  Epstein documents.
[09:42.000 --> 09:45.280]  When Trump himself is trying to cover up his involvement.
[09:45.280 --> 09:50.960]  When Trump himself was the essential lowlife in the way he conducted his life
[09:52.000 --> 09:54.160]  when he was best friends with Jeffrey Epstein.
[09:54.880 --> 09:56.640]  And at other times as well.
[09:56.640 --> 10:01.200]  I mean how in the world, look in the mirror when you're going to call somebody a lowlife,
[10:01.200 --> 10:05.840]  there's probably nothing more lowlife than we have seen than Donald Trump's personal conduct.
[10:07.520 --> 10:11.200]  So Massie was singled out on Christmas as a lowlife
[10:12.080 --> 10:16.560]  because he co-authored a law requiring the federal government to release the Epstein files.
[10:17.520 --> 10:19.680]  And trying to help victims as well.
[10:21.280 --> 10:25.840]  So Trump posted on his so-called truth social platform.
[10:27.040 --> 10:29.360]  He said the whole Epstein thing is a scam.
[10:31.280 --> 10:33.600]  How's that? Yeah, it is. It is.
[10:33.920 --> 10:37.280]  And it is a hoax, but not in the way that he wants you to think it is.
[10:37.840 --> 10:44.720]  Massie, and he talked about Massie called him a lowlife Republican.
[10:45.840 --> 10:50.560]  So Massie said, imagine celebrating a blessed Christmas with your family.
[10:51.200 --> 10:55.200]  And suddenly phones alert everyone to the most powerful man in the world attacking you.
[10:56.240 --> 11:01.360]  Because you fulfilled his campaign promise to help victims.
[11:02.320 --> 11:08.880]  Yeah, Massie also said all those with connections to Epstein must face the same kind of consequences
[11:09.600 --> 11:13.680]  as Andrew, Prince Andrew, or the man formerly known as Prince,
[11:14.240 --> 11:18.000]  who lost his British royal title as the Duke of York.
[11:19.680 --> 11:26.240]  And I guess he's the Duke of Earl over his ties to Epstein.
[11:27.040 --> 11:31.360]  So he says there's been a reckoning in Britain that needs to happen in the US.
[11:32.080 --> 11:34.240]  He said a prince lost his title.
[11:34.240 --> 11:36.960]  The ambassador of the US lost his job.
[11:37.600 --> 11:41.200]  And we need to see those kinds of consequences here, he said.
[11:42.320 --> 11:51.200]  Well, Trump wasn't just focused on CBS and the press and Thomas Massie and the Epstein files.
[11:51.360 --> 11:57.040]  He's also upset about the New York Times calling them a threat to the national security of our
[11:57.040 --> 12:00.240]  nation as part of his late night rant.
[12:01.360 --> 12:03.600]  So how are they a threat to the national security?
[12:03.600 --> 12:09.520]  Well, if you understand that the nation is simply Donald Trump's interests,
[12:10.400 --> 12:14.240]  then national security becomes the interest of Trump.
[12:14.240 --> 12:15.840]  That's how they are a threat.
[12:16.800 --> 12:21.120]  The failing New York Times and their lies and their purposeful misrepresentations
[12:21.680 --> 12:25.040]  a serious threat to the national security of our nation.
[12:25.040 --> 12:25.920]  I gotta say this.
[12:26.720 --> 12:32.320]  You know, for the longest time, people have said patriotism is the refuge of a scoundrel,
[12:32.320 --> 12:32.880]  right?
[12:32.880 --> 12:34.000]  The last refuge.
[12:34.000 --> 12:41.280]  I have to say national security is the first refuge of a scoundrel government.
[12:42.080 --> 12:43.840]  Everything is about national security.
[12:43.840 --> 12:48.080]  I am so sick and tired of seeing that used as a shield against everything.
[12:48.080 --> 12:50.960]  And of course, most of the time when it is being used as a shield,
[12:51.280 --> 12:52.480]  it's exactly like this.
[12:53.040 --> 12:59.600]  It's a shield to protect some corrupt politician from people saying what they have done
[12:59.600 --> 13:04.080]  or some corrupt organization like the CIA.
[13:04.960 --> 13:06.640]  They are the true enemy of the people.
[13:06.640 --> 13:08.560]  Thank you for your attention to this matter.
[13:10.560 --> 13:12.080]  Thank you for your attention to this matter.
[13:12.080 --> 13:12.560]  Is it on?
[13:12.560 --> 13:13.060]  Is it on?
[13:15.440 --> 13:18.880]  Anyway, the president made the post just days after the New York Times published
[13:18.880 --> 13:23.600]  an explosive article on Trump's former relationship with a late-night sex offender,
[13:23.600 --> 13:24.160]  Jeffrey Epstein.
[13:24.160 --> 13:25.600]  That's what I said at the beginning.
[13:25.600 --> 13:27.360]  This is the 12 days of Epstein.
[13:27.360 --> 13:28.480]  He's about had it, right?
[13:29.920 --> 13:34.240]  There's all these lords of leaping on women and all the rest of this stuff,
[13:34.240 --> 13:37.520]  all the geese-goosing, I guess, is going on.
[13:37.520 --> 13:40.240]  And the article titled Don's Best Friend,
[13:40.800 --> 13:44.960]  How Epstein and Trump Bonded Over the Pursuit of Women.
[13:44.960 --> 13:47.360]  They interviewed more than 30 former employees of Epstein,
[13:47.360 --> 13:52.000]  victims of sex offender's abuse, and others who crossed paths with Epstein and Trump.
[13:52.000 --> 13:55.120]  Beginning in the late 1980s, the two men forged a bond
[13:55.760 --> 14:01.280]  intense enough to leave others who knew them with the impression that they were each other's closest
[14:01.280 --> 14:05.440]  friend. Epstein was perhaps Trump's most reliable wingman.
[14:06.720 --> 14:10.960]  Epstein and his partner, Ghislaine Maxwell, allegedly introduced at least six women
[14:10.960 --> 14:13.120]  who have accused them of grooming or abuse.
[14:13.120 --> 14:17.040]  At least six women are introduced to Mr. Trump, including one minor.
[14:17.440 --> 14:22.240]  One victim told the newspaper she was coerced into attending four parties at Epstein's home.
[14:23.280 --> 14:27.120]  And two of them, she said Epstein directed her to have sex with other male guests.
[14:27.680 --> 14:29.600]  Trump attended all four, the women said.
[14:30.240 --> 14:32.800]  And so when you look at these documents that they put out,
[14:33.600 --> 14:42.720]  again, what is really interesting and funny about it is the fact that the people who put this stuff
[14:42.720 --> 14:50.400]  out really had no understanding of what they were doing with the documents.
[14:50.400 --> 14:54.320]  It's very similar. It reminds me of what happened with Obama and the birth certificate.
[14:54.320 --> 15:00.800]  There are questions about his birth certificate and who his father was and that type of thing.
[15:01.360 --> 15:07.280]  And so they put out a birth certificate that was essentially a Photoshop document with layers
[15:07.280 --> 15:10.240]  still there. And you could see how they had modified it.
[15:10.240 --> 15:12.400]  A similar thing happened with Trump.
[15:13.040 --> 15:19.840]  And I'm looking for it here and I'm trying to, let's see, I don't see it there.
[15:19.840 --> 15:26.560]  Let's see. Yeah, I don't see the clip there, but it was a clip where you could,
[15:27.280 --> 15:30.640]  they demonstrate the fact that the document may be fixed by now.
[15:30.640 --> 15:33.760]  I haven't looked at it. But the way they put the thing up,
[15:34.880 --> 15:40.000]  they put it up as a text document, again, with layers like the Obama birth certificate.
[15:40.880 --> 15:47.120]  And so if you typed in, and then they also, so you could drag through the files that they put up.
[15:47.120 --> 15:50.880]  If something is redacted, you could drag through it, copy it,
[15:50.880 --> 15:57.280]  paste it somewhere else, and it would get the text, but not the redacted bar that was there.
[15:57.280 --> 16:01.520]  They didn't flatten the document. And so you can see what they redacted.
[16:01.520 --> 16:07.280]  It's very much like what we saw with the TSA in that lawsuit, except there they posted up
[16:07.280 --> 16:12.480]  on pacer.gov, which is a website that looks at, that they post the federal lawsuits on.
[16:13.040 --> 16:18.880]  First, they posted the unredacted thing. We grabbed that before they changed it later that
[16:18.880 --> 16:22.960]  day. And then they put up the redacted one. So you just go back and compare the two and see
[16:22.960 --> 16:27.520]  what they didn't want you to know. Which was, by the way, the fact that in 2011,
[16:27.520 --> 16:33.920]  where they were threatening to shut down Texas as a no-fly zone because of the pushback in
[16:33.920 --> 16:40.800]  the Texas legislature against the pat-downs and the naked-body scanners, you could see that at
[16:40.800 --> 16:47.280]  that very same time, the TSA itself said in internal documents that there was no threat
[16:47.840 --> 16:53.760]  against airports or airplanes. And of course, you know that's the case, because they
[16:55.120 --> 16:59.840]  failed nearly 100% of the time. If there had been a threat, we would have had terrorist events
[16:59.840 --> 17:05.520]  happening because they weren't protecting anybody. But they were trying to protect the
[17:05.520 --> 17:11.840]  lies that they were all about. And we're going to take a look at what's about to happen to travel
[17:12.400 --> 17:16.240]  in the U.S. as well. Yeah, they're locking us down little by little.

[18:21.360 --> 18:26.720]  the federal government has now become a boa constrictor. And every time you breathe,
[18:26.800 --> 18:32.960]  it tightens up whenever you exhale. And so it's constant ratcheting down and tightening down to
[18:32.960 --> 18:37.040]  strangle us in every regard. And so what's happening with travel, what's going to happen
[18:37.040 --> 18:41.280]  with airport travel has already gotten horrific, but that's not enough. They're not done yet.
[18:42.080 --> 18:46.480]  They've got a lot more to do. And they're beginning right now with these draconian
[18:46.480 --> 18:52.960]  measures at the border, but they will be a part of domestic flight as well. And of course, the
[18:52.960 --> 18:58.320]  other countries are reciprocating. So it's going to be a global crackdown on travel.
[18:59.440 --> 19:04.320]  So that's one of the things that we can look forward to, I guess. But when you look at the
[19:04.320 --> 19:09.040]  documents, not only could you find what was there, but they'd gone to a great deal of trouble, even
[19:09.040 --> 19:14.480]  though they didn't understand they needed to flatten the document. They went to a great deal
[19:14.480 --> 19:23.120]  of trouble to make sure that they stopped any search for Trump. But if you typed in Trump with
[19:23.120 --> 19:29.440]  a space behind it, you could find over 600 times his name was mentioned. These lawyers are very busy
[19:29.440 --> 19:35.360]  over the run up to the holidays. There must have been a lot of empty stockings. They didn't have
[19:35.360 --> 19:39.920]  time to do any Christmas shopping, right? Because they're all busy trying to protect Trump with
[19:39.920 --> 19:47.920]  these documents. So he also tweets out to Democrats for Christmas, enjoy what may be your last
[19:47.920 --> 19:54.560]  Merry Christmas. Merry Christmas to all, including the many sleazebags who loved Jeffrey Epstein,
[19:55.200 --> 20:00.000]  gave him bundles of money, went to the island, attended his parties, and thought he was the
[20:00.000 --> 20:06.640]  greatest guy on earth. Are you talking about yourself, Trump? You thought he was the greatest
[20:06.640 --> 20:12.480]  guy on earth for 15 years? Give me a break. We're supposed to pretend that you weren't there. And,
[20:12.480 --> 20:19.520]  of course, that'll work with the alternative media covering for Trump and the delusional Trump
[20:19.520 --> 20:26.480]  supporters, as if he didn't know, as if he didn't party with Epstein all the time. So
[20:28.000 --> 20:33.680]  when the names get brought out, the ongoing radical left witch hunt plus one low-life Republican,
[20:33.680 --> 20:37.840]  Massey, and it's revealed that they're all Democrats, there will be a lot of explaining to
[20:38.560 --> 20:43.840]  you, much like there was when it was made public that the Russian hoax was a fictitious story.
[20:44.800 --> 20:51.040]  Well, that's the strategy. Let's release as much information as we can about the Democrats,
[20:51.040 --> 20:57.520]  about Bill Clinton and so forth, right? And so it is a bait and switch. The president
[20:57.520 --> 21:01.760]  issued a separate Christmas message lashing out his political enemies on Christmas Eve.
[21:02.400 --> 21:05.360]  He said, we no longer look at all the accomplishments that we've done. We no longer
[21:05.360 --> 21:12.560]  have open borders like we did his entire four years. We no longer have men and women's sports
[21:12.560 --> 21:19.440]  or transgender for everyone. Well, again, he was the guy who wanted to bring in trannies
[21:20.080 --> 21:24.640]  for his beauty pageant. He was the first one who had a beauty pageant who wanted to have a tranny
[21:24.640 --> 21:30.960]  in it. Yeah, pretend that you're something else, Trump. And he says, and no inflation. Again,
[21:30.960 --> 21:39.920]  he just flat out lies. And you know that he's lying. So let's not forget what was happening
[21:39.920 --> 21:45.680]  five years ago and the Christmas message. And Brian Shulhovey put this out. This is
[21:45.680 --> 21:52.560]  Trump's Christmas message for 2020. The vaccine is the greatest medical miracle.
[21:53.360 --> 22:00.160]  And we can never let people forget. And Brian Shulhovey at healthimpact.com says, yeah,
[22:00.160 --> 22:05.760]  let's not forget. And I don't want you to forget either. The president and I want to wish every
[22:05.760 --> 22:12.800]  American a very Merry Christmas. As you know, this Christmas is different than years past.
[22:13.680 --> 22:20.080]  We are battling a global pandemic that has affected all of us. Brilliant scientists have
[22:20.080 --> 22:25.680]  developed treatments. Is this the White House or Green Acres? We are delivering millions of doses
[22:25.680 --> 22:32.720]  of a safe and effective vaccine that will soon end this terrible pandemic and save millions and
[22:32.720 --> 22:38.800]  millions of lives. We're grateful for all of the scientists, researchers, manufacturing workers,
[22:39.440 --> 22:44.240]  and service members who have worked tirelessly to make this breakthrough possible.
[22:45.040 --> 22:50.640]  It is truly a Christmas miracle. Over and over again, we were told it would be impossible to
[22:50.640 --> 22:57.440]  deliver a vaccine by the end of the year. All of the experts said, absolutely unthinkable. Trump
[22:57.440 --> 23:03.840]  is exaggerating. It can't happen. And we did it long before the end of the year. They said it would
[23:03.840 --> 23:09.920]  take a medical miracle. And that's exactly what it is. Years from now, they'll be talking about it.
[23:09.920 --> 23:16.480]  They'll be talking about this great, great thing that we did with the vaccines. A truly unprecedented,
[23:17.040 --> 23:23.680]  amazing medical miracle. Yeah, he executed it. The vaccine takes up to 10 years. Thanks to
[23:23.680 --> 23:30.800]  Operation Warp Speed, we developed the vaccine in just 9 months. We've already begun a nationwide
[23:30.800 --> 23:37.200]  vaccination program and we're sending the vaccine all over the world. The world will benefit,
[23:37.200 --> 23:43.200]  will benefit, and everybody's calling to thank me. Our most vulnerable citizens are already
[23:43.200 --> 23:48.800]  receiving the vaccine and millions of doses are quickly being shipped all across our country.
[23:49.360 --> 23:54.960]  By early next year, the vaccine will be available to every American, and shortly thereafter,
[23:54.960 --> 24:01.600]  it will be delivered worldwide. We will end the pandemic once and for all. This is one of the most
[24:01.600 --> 24:08.160]  extraordinary scientific, industrial, and medical feats in history. Everybody has it as that. That's
[24:08.160 --> 24:14.960]  what they're marketed down as. And we can never let people forget where it came from and how it
[24:14.960 --> 24:20.640]  came. We're very proud to be honored. And all of the people that worked so hard on it, we have to
[24:20.640 --> 24:25.600]  be remembered for what's been done. Yeah, I want you remembered, you son of a...
[24:27.360 --> 24:32.480]  I can't believe that people let this thing go. Great job from Brian Shalhavi putting up picture
[24:32.480 --> 24:37.280]  after picture after picture of people who died, people who have been amputated. As Jack Lawson
[24:37.280 --> 24:43.040]  pointed out, his mother-in-law got the shots, multiple ones, started having blood clots all
[24:43.040 --> 24:49.040]  over her body. And you saw the one picture of the lady there with the legs amputated. His mother-in-law
[24:49.040 --> 24:57.280]  has had both legs, both arms amputated now with this stuff, and it keeps going. It's just unbelievable
[24:57.280 --> 25:03.600]  the criminality that's there. And this is all made possible, folks, by an information war,
[25:04.400 --> 25:08.000]  an information war that was conducted by the people who call themselves
[25:08.000 --> 25:14.080]  Infowars and others like them, the alternative media supporting Trump and continuing to support
[25:14.080 --> 25:20.080]  him and pushing people away from the truth about what this vaccine really was. That's why it's a
[25:20.080 --> 25:25.360]  very hopeful sign that at least in the Netherlands, and people in the Netherlands, I think,
[25:25.360 --> 25:30.080]  were awakened when Mark Ruda, the Prime Minister, decided that he was going to destroy the food
[25:30.080 --> 25:38.640]  supply of the most productive agricultural country in Europe, the Netherlands, single-handedly. He's
[25:38.640 --> 25:44.160]  going to destroy all that. He's going to turn it over to Bill Gates and the picnic food delivery
[25:44.160 --> 25:49.760]  system that's run by his in-laws. And it woke people up. They created a new political party.
[25:49.760 --> 25:56.640]  They got rid of him. Where did he go? NATO. Because this is a military operation against us,
[25:56.640 --> 26:03.360]  always was. Whether it's slots or live dealers, SpinQuest.com has the fun and action you're looking

[26:54.160 --> 27:03.200]  Call it Operation Warp Speed, delivered by the military, goes worldwide. It is a global
[27:03.200 --> 27:10.560]  depopulation program. That's what Operation Warp Speed is. And it's so important that we not fall
[27:10.560 --> 27:17.120]  for the lies that said that it was a real pandemic. The lies that said that it was released by gain of
[27:17.120 --> 27:22.320]  function. And Trump is out there trying to push that narrative as well as all the Trump media
[27:22.320 --> 27:27.920]  still pushing that narrative. And the other side is pushing this as well because it gives them
[27:27.920 --> 27:32.880]  an alibi. Oh, we did the best we could. But you know, this is something that the Chinese did to
[27:32.880 --> 27:38.800]  us. No, it was done by DARPA and others. There's a long history of them developing this stuff,
[27:38.800 --> 27:44.080]  a long history of them practicing and planning exactly how they're going to lock down people
[27:44.720 --> 27:51.760]  and make the vaccine a requirement for real life. So this whole thing was a military execution.
[27:52.800 --> 27:56.240]  And you know, we have one of the stories that we've got today as we look at the wars.
[27:56.960 --> 28:03.440]  You've got an American general who is head of NORTHCOM. He was asked point blank if he was
[28:03.440 --> 28:10.560]  given orders to attack people in America, if he would do it. He doesn't care about a declaration
[28:10.560 --> 28:14.080]  of war. He doesn't care about Posse Comitatus or the rest of it. Well, if I was given orders,
[28:14.080 --> 28:20.240]  yeah, I'd do it. Yeah, we noticed. But let me tell you, it's already been done. This is not
[28:20.240 --> 28:26.000]  a hypothetical. It's already been done by Trump and Trump will do it again. Go in and he'll say,
[28:26.000 --> 28:32.640]  well, you know, these gangs in Chicago, whatever they are. This is a terrorist threat to us. They're
[28:32.640 --> 28:38.080]  narco terrorists because they're selling drugs for the drug war. And I can see him using the
[28:38.080 --> 28:42.640]  military. And not only that, but when you look at what is happening in Central and South America,
[28:42.640 --> 28:48.000]  if he does make moves against the cartels in those areas, I expect them to come in with some
[28:48.000 --> 28:54.720]  reprisals as they have done in their own countries. And the first time they kill one
[28:54.720 --> 29:03.280]  person who is in law enforcement or one local or federal agent, then that's going to be open warfare
[29:03.280 --> 29:07.680]  inside our own country. That's what's coming to us. And it's going to come to us from the person
[29:07.680 --> 29:15.920]  who already did it as a poisoner, the poisoner in chief. So as Marshall Harvey said, today is
[29:15.920 --> 29:23.360]  the first Christmas day in Trump's second term as president. That speech that he did there and
[29:23.360 --> 29:30.480]  put out and he annotated it with the pictures of people who had been killed or maimed. That was his
[29:30.480 --> 29:39.040]  last Christmas address just before he left office the first term. The presidential prayer
[29:39.040 --> 29:45.120]  team published the presidential message for Christmas and it said, together we must strive
[29:45.120 --> 29:52.800]  to foster a culture of deeper understanding and respect, traits that exemplify the teachings of
[29:52.800 --> 29:57.920]  Christ. Well, I mean, clearly his prayer team doesn't understand what Christmas is about at all.
[29:59.120 --> 30:03.360]  It's not about making us better people. That's something that flows out of it.
[30:04.400 --> 30:11.760]  But it's about peace between God and man. That's why Christ came incarnated. You can't have the
[30:11.760 --> 30:18.480]  fruit without the root of Christ. So he says, I'm not sure who actually wrote that, but Trump himself
[30:18.480 --> 30:23.600]  was on Truth Social saying, Merry Christmas to all, including the radical left scum doing
[30:23.600 --> 30:28.320]  everything possible to destroy our country and, you know, enjoy this as your last Christmas type
[30:28.320 --> 30:34.720]  of thing. So he said, let's take a look at Trump's last Christmas message. And he doesn't want people
[30:34.720 --> 30:43.040]  to ever forget where that poison came from, except they have forgotten and they have walked away
[30:44.160 --> 30:50.080]  and there is no justice. So to honor Trump's Christmas message to Americans in 2020, I've
[30:50.080 --> 30:56.400]  created a short two and a half minute video to do what Trump requested in his Christmas message
[30:56.400 --> 31:01.440]  and remind people to never forget where the shots came from. I've done my best to remind people that
[31:01.440 --> 31:06.400]  they came from Trump. I've done my best to give him credit for being the father of the vaccine.
[31:06.960 --> 31:12.480]  And when I call the Trump shot, you won't believe the amount of hate I get from people. They
[31:12.480 --> 31:19.840]  viscerally hate me because I call out this murderer, Donald Trump, murderer, thief, pirate,
[31:20.720 --> 31:24.080]  criminal, tyrant, you name it. He fits the bill.
[31:24.080 --> 31:34.480]  So yeah, the father of the vaccine and his Trump miracle. Well, we're going to take a quick break
[31:34.480 --> 31:39.440]  and we'll be right back. And I'm still going to play some Christmas music these next couple of
[31:39.440 --> 31:43.920]  days here as we end up in the week here. We'll be right back.
[32:54.080 --> 33:01.920]  You're listening to the David Knight show.

[34:06.640 --> 34:11.200]  Well, let's continue on with this pharmaceutical stuff. We don't want to forget Trump's role in
[34:11.200 --> 34:17.920]  all this stuff. Bill Gates, Pfizer's CEO, Albert Borla. Of course, now they're business partners.
[34:17.920 --> 34:23.600]  Isn't that interesting? You know, Trump introduces Albert Borla about their new partnership.
[34:24.160 --> 34:31.040]  To make money killing people. And the crowd boo's Albert Borla. Trump just shoves it off.
[34:31.040 --> 34:36.560]  Yeah, you guys, you love me enough that you'll forget that I am partnered with this guy.
[34:37.200 --> 34:42.640]  You know what? It sucks to be bored. But when I get on my phone and play real casino games

[35:41.200 --> 35:46.880]  COVID vaccine injury lawsuit. It relates to a lawsuit filed in 2023. Seven people
[35:46.880 --> 35:54.240]  injured by the COVID-19 vaccines so-called. One of the victims has since died. The lawsuit centers
[35:54.240 --> 36:02.240]  around the question of whether the COVID-19 injections are a bio weapon. They are. That's
[36:02.240 --> 36:08.880]  what I've said all along. The suit names 15 other defendants, including former Dutch prime minister
[36:09.840 --> 36:16.480]  and current NATO secretary-general Mark Rutte, the Dutch state, several Dutch public health
[36:16.480 --> 36:21.920]  officials and journalists. Defendants are accused of misleading victims about the safety and the
[36:21.920 --> 36:26.800]  efficacy of the vaccines. It remains to be seen whether the defendants will comply with the court's
[36:26.800 --> 36:34.160]  order and appear this next year in a hearing. A second lawsuit was filed in March by three COVID-19
[36:34.160 --> 36:39.760]  injury victims in the Netherlands presenting a similar set of allegations and names the same
[36:39.760 --> 36:45.680]  defendants. Again, the Dutch are leading the way in this stuff. This is the only country
[36:46.320 --> 36:53.760]  in which there's been any pushback against this massive conspiracy to commit mass murder by
[36:53.760 --> 37:00.720]  government and to usher in a new technocracy. Travel permits for everything. Universal basic
[37:00.720 --> 37:05.680]  income because we're going to shut down your business. It's just amazing to me that everybody
[37:05.680 --> 37:10.720]  just took this, except the Dutch, who are now awake, I think, because of Mark Rutte and because
[37:10.720 --> 37:15.600]  of the attacks on the farms. Interesting thing is the expert witnesses, the very first one mentioned
[37:15.600 --> 37:21.440]  in this article from Children and Self-Defense is Katherine Austin Fitz. Good for her. Good for her.
[37:22.160 --> 37:30.400]  Solari Report, former assistant secretary of HUD. Sasha Lotopova, former pharmaceutical research
[37:30.400 --> 37:36.480]  and development executive. Joseph Sasan, a psychotherapist who's litigating to prohibit
[37:36.480 --> 37:43.840]  the mRNA vaccines in Florida. And Katherine Watt, who I don't know, researcher in a paralegal.
[37:43.840 --> 37:52.800]  Michael Yaden, one of my heroes, a pharmacologist, former vice president of Pfizer's allergy and
[37:52.800 --> 37:59.600]  respiratory research unit. He's been very explicit for the longest time that this is a deliberate
[37:59.600 --> 38:04.000]  move. These things don't just happen. He said this was deliberate. They know every ingredient
[38:04.000 --> 38:09.200]  that they put in and you look at these ingredients and how harmful they are. He said this is deliberate.
[38:09.200 --> 38:13.920]  This was a poisoning. He's made the case. It's a bioweapon. I played a clip for you last week
[38:13.920 --> 38:21.200]  of Michael Yaden being very clear about this. Good for him. In October 2024, the district court,
[38:21.200 --> 38:26.400]  one district court rejected Gates' motion to dismiss the case, ruling that it has jurisdiction
[38:26.400 --> 38:33.920]  over him and ordering him to pay defendants legal fees. In June 2025, the plaintiffs increased
[38:33.920 --> 38:38.560]  their claims against defendants and petitioned the court to accept the expert witness testimony
[38:38.560 --> 38:46.480]  that has been recorded. They're trying to get them in court to testify in person because that's more
[38:46.480 --> 38:53.760]  powerful than giving a video deposition. But the expert witnesses have now released a series of
[38:53.760 --> 39:00.400]  YouTube videos presenting their evidence and talking about what they would say given a chance.
[39:01.920 --> 39:08.000]  So the lawyer for them, Stassen is his name, submitted written statements and recorded video
[39:08.000 --> 39:12.880]  statements by the expert witnesses to the district court. The second lawsuit kicked off in March.
[39:13.520 --> 39:18.880]  In August, the district court denied the application, saying that the defendants lacked
[39:18.960 --> 39:24.400]  standing. In September, the lawyer filed an appeal alleging that the court did not afford
[39:24.400 --> 39:29.040]  the plaintiffs a fair trial in violation of the European Convention on Human Rights and calling
[39:29.040 --> 39:34.080]  on the court to allow the expert witnesses to testify in court. During last week's public
[39:34.080 --> 39:40.080]  conference, the lawyer Stassen said is the plaintiffs and the broader public, quote,
[39:40.080 --> 39:47.040]  are victims of people who unjustly suppress the truth. That's what the cancellation
[39:47.680 --> 39:51.520]  and the shadow banning was all about. As a matter of fact, I put up some stuff and
[39:52.960 --> 39:59.920]  so it's maybe like 100 people saw the post I put up when I'm supposed to have about 140,000
[39:59.920 --> 40:09.040]  followers. And so I asked Grok itself, I said, so how do I ask questions about shadow banning? He
[40:09.040 --> 40:16.240]  said, well, Twitter or X says it doesn't shadow ban, but Grok says, but it does. And here's how
[40:16.240 --> 40:22.320]  you test it. And yes, it is severely shadow banned. You know, first I gave it the stats
[40:22.320 --> 40:26.480]  and it says, well, that is highly unusual. You know, it might be shadow banned. Here's how you
[40:26.480 --> 40:32.960]  can test it. I did test it. It's still being suppressed. Nothing has been changed. The
[40:32.960 --> 40:38.800]  suppression of the truth. My clients were misled. Had they not been misled, they would have not
[40:38.800 --> 40:45.120]  gotten the COVID-19 shot. A shot that the suppressors of the truth still tout as safe
[40:45.120 --> 40:50.160]  and effective to this day. And that is Albert Bortel's reply to this lawsuit.
[40:51.280 --> 40:56.320]  Stassen also noted that his efforts to have the Dutch courts accept expert witness in person
[40:56.320 --> 41:03.440]  testimony. He said the witnesses tend to present evidence showing that the COVID-19 shots are
[41:03.440 --> 41:10.880]  indistinguishable from bio weapons that have no health benefits whatsoever. They're neither safe
[41:10.880 --> 41:17.600]  nor effective. They're released in the U S under emergency authorization by a Trump administration
[41:18.400 --> 41:24.320]  executive. All these guys came from and went back to big farm, all the people in Trump's
[41:24.320 --> 41:29.120]  administration. He had two FDA directors. One went back to one went to Pfizer. The other one
[41:29.120 --> 41:35.520]  went to Moderna. His HHS director came from Eli Lilly. He was the one who first declared a
[41:35.520 --> 41:40.080]  pandemic when there weren't any cases even that they can allege. I think there's three people
[41:40.080 --> 41:47.520]  that they alleged had COVID-19. That's not a pandemic. Three cases in all of the United
[41:47.520 --> 41:55.280]  States and nobody had died. And so, you know, what was it with this emergency authorization
[41:55.280 --> 42:02.240]  and Trump pushing this thing through? He removed all the tests. He removed any inspection of this.
[42:02.240 --> 42:07.280]  He just rushed this thing through. That's how he got it through so fast. That's not a feature.
[42:08.240 --> 42:14.240]  That's a bug. How in the world does he get away with bragging about the fact that he
[42:14.240 --> 42:19.040]  shut down all testing and all regulation of this stuff and they have shut down
[42:19.680 --> 42:24.400]  and lied about the people that have been harmed by it. So by design they were intended to cause
[42:24.400 --> 42:31.680]  the damage that's described in the package insert as reported side effects. Things like
[42:31.840 --> 42:38.800]  side effects like sudden death, heart failure, cancer, the most horrific diseases. A key component
[42:38.800 --> 42:46.560]  of the great reset is what this was. It was a military project in which NATO plays a significant
[42:46.560 --> 42:54.240]  role. That's Mark Ruta and why they brought him in there. Of course it was a military project.
[42:54.240 --> 42:59.920]  As I've said over and over again, it was the other shoe to drop from the inside job of 9-11.
[42:59.920 --> 43:06.400]  It was two months before 9-11 that they ran their first germ game, Dark Winter, and they practiced
[43:06.400 --> 43:13.920]  it for 20 years. They rolled the stuff out with the military taking the lead. It was a military
[43:13.920 --> 43:19.280]  mass murder. Senzon told the defender that he and other expert witnesses are advocating to testify
[43:19.280 --> 43:24.960]  in court as this can be more influential than written testimony. He said he intends to provide
[43:24.960 --> 43:32.480]  evidence that the COVID-19 vaccine, so-called vaccines, are bioweapons, violating the Biological
[43:32.480 --> 43:40.080]  Weapons Convention and the Biological Weapons and Anti-Terrorism Act of 1989, which was authored by
[43:40.080 --> 43:46.880]  the late Francis Boyle Ph.D., an expert witness in the original lawsuit who died in January.
[43:47.520 --> 43:56.160]  I guess if he was an expert witness in this, I guess he finally came around to the understanding
[43:56.160 --> 44:02.960]  that this is a bioweapon. When I was pushing back on this at Infowars and Alex was pushing
[44:02.960 --> 44:10.160]  that the pandemic was real, that the vaccines were nothing but sugar water and you could take it for
[44:10.160 --> 44:14.080]  Trump. Yeah, of course it's going to have some adjuvants in it, but you can take this. Do it
[44:14.080 --> 44:20.320]  for Trump. And so Alex had me on. I didn't realize that Alex was doing that at the time,
[44:20.320 --> 44:25.760]  and I didn't know that this was going to be set up as a faux debate between me and Francis Boyle.
[44:25.760 --> 44:31.760]  Francis Boyle believing and telling people at the time that the COVID-19 thing was a lab leak
[44:31.760 --> 44:37.520]  and that it was a real pandemic. I pushed back against that. I haven't gone back. Ryan sent me
[44:37.520 --> 44:44.080]  a link to the actual program. You can still find it at the Internet at the Infowars archives,
[44:44.080 --> 44:49.040]  but I haven't gone back. I don't like watching myself, and I'm sure if I watched I'd be very
[44:49.040 --> 44:53.360]  disappointed in what I did. I don't know that I made a good case for it. I'm not a great debater.
[44:54.560 --> 45:00.880]  I just was right, and I'm not saying that to pat myself on the back. I say it with sadness
[45:00.880 --> 45:05.520]  because I look at the people who have been harmed by this,
[45:07.040 --> 45:11.600]  and I just wish we could have gotten this information out. I wish I could have done a better job.
[45:17.680 --> 45:21.840]  It's difficult when it's, first of all, I didn't know that this was coming up. It's like one of
[45:21.840 --> 45:26.720]  these things, hey, Alex would like to come and do this show. So I walk in cold with this stuff. I
[45:26.720 --> 45:30.800]  don't know if this is going to be a debate. It's not really a debate when it's two against one,
[45:30.800 --> 45:37.680]  and the moderator's got his thumb on the scale, but now we see that he was an expert witness
[45:38.320 --> 45:44.800]  to say that it was a bioweapon. Well, good. Sasha Lada-Povit told the Defender that the lawsuits
[45:44.800 --> 45:50.800]  are the only ones worldwide that allege that COVID was not a public health event,
[45:51.440 --> 45:57.920]  but a government project. That's right, going back to Dark Winter. They resulted in mass
[45:57.920 --> 46:05.680]  casualty that can be characterized as genocide or more broadly as democide, death by government
[46:06.400 --> 46:12.560]  of the population. In her statement, Lada-Povit alleged the military governance and contracts
[46:13.360 --> 46:18.080]  were used to develop, procure, deliver, distribute these shots all over the world
[46:18.800 --> 46:23.520]  and to bypass standard regulatory oversight procedures for pharmaceutical products.
[46:24.640 --> 46:30.160]  Yeah, that's the thing. The alt media is still pushing this China lab leak. I had some guy
[46:32.000 --> 46:43.200]  respond to the Monster Jab clip that we did and said, you're pathetic trying to pat yourself on
[46:43.200 --> 46:48.000]  the back for being right. It's like, no pal, there's people who really believe that it was
[46:48.000 --> 46:51.680]  a real pandemic. There's people who really believe that it leaked out of the lab. There's
[46:51.680 --> 46:57.520]  people who really believe that the government did the best job that it could. I'm simply trying
[46:57.520 --> 47:04.880]  in a satire to tell people that is not the case. We got a lot of criminal conspirators
[47:04.880 --> 47:09.920]  who did this to people and they're going to do it again if they don't answer for this stuff.
[47:14.160 --> 47:18.800]  And they're already plotting it. There is substantial evidence of noncompliance with
[47:18.800 --> 47:23.760]  good manufacturing practices, she said, which is the law that governs pharmaceutical purity
[47:23.760 --> 47:26.640]  and honesty and labeling all over the world. Well, of course they knew that.
[47:27.360 --> 47:32.640]  And I reported at the time Stat News, which is a pharmaceutical publication. It's not critical
[47:33.360 --> 47:39.360]  of pharmaceutical industry. And they pointed out that Pfizer was blackmailing three South
[47:39.360 --> 47:45.760]  American countries, saying, you will give us immunity against unsafe manufacturing processes,
[47:46.320 --> 47:53.760]  against negligence, not just on the fact that this is experimental, but you'll give us broad
[47:54.400 --> 48:00.320]  immunity. And you'll back it up by pledging assets in other countries, embassies and other
[48:00.320 --> 48:06.240]  things like that. And we already see some countries who are up against financial hardship selling their
[48:06.240 --> 48:10.960]  embassies because that's property and real estate in other countries that they can sell.
[48:10.960 --> 48:17.920]  So Pfizer demanded that as protection. One of the South American countries went along with it.
[48:18.720 --> 48:23.360]  The other two did not. And they went public with it. If I remember correctly, I think it was
[48:23.360 --> 48:30.160]  Argentina and Brazil. According to Catherine Austin Fitz, global central banks and financial
[48:30.160 --> 48:34.960]  institutions were involved in these efforts. She said the pandemic represented an egregious
[48:34.960 --> 48:40.880]  misuse of healthcare policies to implement economic and political agendas. That's right.
[48:41.840 --> 48:48.480]  With the goal of engineering a great reset of the global financial system. And we are still
[48:49.360 --> 48:55.760]  suffering the consequences of that. Yaden said that since 2020, he's attempted to warn the public
[48:55.760 --> 49:02.640]  that the COVID-19 vaccines were designed to lower the fertility rate and people's health and to
[49:02.640 --> 49:07.680]  reduce population. He said that even though he was censored on social media for making such comments,
[49:07.680 --> 49:15.120]  he said, this is what I have watched happen around me for five years. So several of the
[49:15.120 --> 49:22.240]  defendants, including Borla, Albert Borla, CEO of Pfizer, Mark Ruda, the former prime minister,
[49:22.240 --> 49:27.680]  now head of NATO, and the Dutch state sought to blot the testimony of the plaintiff's expert
[49:27.680 --> 49:33.040]  witnesses. Gates was the only defendant who deferred to the court's judgment on this point.
[49:33.840 --> 49:38.160]  In September, Gates and Borla submitted written statements of defense. In his statement,
[49:38.160 --> 49:44.400]  Gates says he doesn't have any connection or influence over the policies of international
[49:44.400 --> 49:50.480]  bodies such as the World Health Organization. Except it's a matter of record that he gives
[49:50.480 --> 49:57.200]  more than virtually every other country in terms of money to them, except for the U.S. One of the
[49:57.200 --> 50:02.480]  largest contributors, more than most nations. But he says he doesn't have any influence with them.
[50:03.360 --> 50:09.680]  Albert Borla has maintained that the Trump shot is safe and effective. And of course,
[50:09.680 --> 50:15.680]  Trump continues to cheer him. He's now a business partner of his. And Trump will never admit that
[50:15.680 --> 50:22.000]  this was a bioweapon. He's the father of the bioweapon. He's the father of the lockdown.
[50:22.000 --> 50:26.960]  He's the father of the digital ID. He's the father of universal basic income.

[51:28.960 --> 51:34.560]  Government program for compensating vaccine injuries is unconstitutional. That is the PREP Act.
[51:36.080 --> 51:42.240]  This is a lawsuit filed in the United States saying that people can't, trying to get
[51:43.200 --> 51:49.840]  compensation for people that have been injured by the Trump bioweapon. Two women with support
[51:49.840 --> 51:54.080]  from Children's Health Defense are suing the government agency that oversees the compensation
[51:54.080 --> 52:00.480]  program for the vaccine injuries. They allege the program violated their constitutional rights
[52:01.200 --> 52:06.240]  by setting eligibility criteria that's so restrictive that neither woman can qualify
[52:06.240 --> 52:13.840]  for compensation. Just remember, the PREP Act was put in by George Bush. Dark Winter happened
[52:13.840 --> 52:20.000]  under George Bush two months before 9-11. The model legislation was put out to states after
[52:20.000 --> 52:25.440]  the anthrax attack that happened one week after it. And then he prepared for all this stuff
[52:26.080 --> 52:31.200]  with a PREP Act. Well, their prepping was to take away anybody getting any compensation
[52:31.840 --> 52:36.160]  for the massive depopulation program that's going to be coming. This is how the globalists
[52:36.160 --> 52:42.640]  operate. They have a very, very long timeline. And of course, that was Republican George W. Bush.
[52:43.680 --> 52:51.040]  Now we've got Republican Donald Trump who executes it and then sets up a corrupt election system to
[52:51.040 --> 52:57.120]  guarantee that he's not going to get re-elected. So he can turn it over to the Democrats and make
[52:57.120 --> 53:03.360]  sure that everybody is confused as to what's going on. But if you go back to the 1986 Childhood
[53:03.360 --> 53:09.840]  Vaccine Compensation Act or whatever they called it, but it basically took away your right to get
[53:11.280 --> 53:15.920]  compensation if your child is injured with the pharmaceutical stuff that's there.
[53:15.920 --> 53:22.720]  1986, that was Fauci. But it's also Reagan who signed that in. So we got Reagan, we got Bush,
[53:22.720 --> 53:27.600]  we got Trump. Don't talk to me about Republicans being the lesser of two evils.
[53:28.320 --> 53:35.360]  Come on, wake up. I've heard that for too long. The lesser of two evils is still evil,
[53:35.360 --> 53:42.240]  but these guys are not necessarily even lesser. They just focus on different evils. That's the
[53:42.240 --> 53:48.160]  difference between the Republicans and the Democrats. They typically have a different evil
[53:48.160 --> 53:52.800]  agenda and they're going to come after you in a different way, but they'll both come in after you.
[53:53.680 --> 53:58.080]  So the claim has to be filed within 12 months after the injury occurred. This is even worse
[53:58.080 --> 54:02.160]  than the pedophile protection that they've got in there with statute limitations. You know,
[54:02.160 --> 54:08.320]  when Jeffrey Epstein or Trump rape a child, they get three years to blow the whistle on them. Of
[54:08.320 --> 54:13.360]  course, that doesn't happen and they know that. But here, many of these people don't know for sure
[54:13.600 --> 54:21.040]  what's going on for 12 months. Strange things are happening to them. And so Ray Flores said,
[54:21.040 --> 54:26.720]  the program's definition of serious physical injury is arbitrary. The federal government
[54:26.720 --> 54:32.320]  defines serious physical injury as injuries that are life-threatening that result in permanent
[54:32.320 --> 54:38.480]  impairment of a body function or permanent damage to body structure or require medical or surgical
[54:39.280 --> 54:44.800]  intervention to preclude permanent impairment of the body function or permanent damage of a
[54:44.800 --> 54:48.640]  body structure. And of course, we've seen this happen over and over again with this, and yet
[54:48.640 --> 54:54.800]  they're not compensating anybody. So these two defendants allege the vaccine caused multiple
[54:54.800 --> 55:00.240]  injuries that have impaired their ability to work and live normal lives. But they say that their
[55:00.240 --> 55:08.240]  injuries fall short of the threshold established by the CICP. It is fundamentally unjust and
[55:08.240 --> 55:14.320]  unconstitutional under the U.S. Constitution for someone to suffer substantial injury and have
[55:14.320 --> 55:21.280]  absolutely no path to recovery or accountability, said Mary Holland of Children's Health Defense.
[55:21.280 --> 55:28.000]  And what makes this worse is that the substantial injury has come to them from the government
[55:28.000 --> 55:34.960]  itself. That's why it's being denied. Potentially millions of people have suffered tremendous harms
[55:34.960 --> 55:39.600]  that the government does not consider to be serious and have been left without any remedy
[55:39.600 --> 55:48.480]  as a result. So this one person, again you got to get there within 12 months, she saw 105 doctors
[55:49.440 --> 55:57.360]  over two and a half years and substantial painful symptoms. She developed autoimmune disorder,
[55:57.920 --> 56:04.560]  small fiber neuropathy, postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome called POTS,
[56:05.760 --> 56:12.000]  mast cell activation syndrome, tinnitus, heart palpitations, leaving her unable to work.
[56:12.880 --> 56:20.720]  This is after two doses of the Trump poison. The other person received two doses of Moderna's
[56:20.720 --> 56:26.080]  Trump poison in 2021. The other one was Pfizer. The vaccines caused her to develop high blood
[56:26.080 --> 56:32.880]  pressure, tachycardia, pelvic pain, tremors, leg numbness, weight loss, frequent urination,
[56:32.880 --> 56:40.400]  and insomnia. She had to sit upright for several months. While the injuries have subsided somewhat
[56:40.400 --> 56:47.120]  from their zenith, the plaintiffs remain impaired and have no access to any remedy. Unlike prior
[56:47.120 --> 56:53.360]  cases challenging the PREP Act, the new lawsuit is narrowly pled to show the plaintiffs and the
[56:53.360 --> 57:00.960]  vast majority of the injured are left without any remedy whatsoever. The sole exception to the PREP
[57:00.960 --> 57:07.600]  Act's liability shield is willful misconduct, defined as intentional acts or missions done
[57:07.600 --> 57:12.320]  with knowledge that harm is highly probable. Well, you know, the first thing that comes to mind is
[57:12.320 --> 57:21.920]  the scientists at Children's Self-Defense noticed that they were encapsulating this
[57:22.800 --> 57:34.240]  mRNA in PEG, polyethylene glycol. It's called pegalated. And they saw that and the scientists,
[57:34.240 --> 57:38.400]  a lot of people are allergic to that. That's going to, if you inject that into people,
[57:38.880 --> 57:45.200]  that's going to cause them to go into anaphylactic shock. And contacted the FDA and the FDA said,
[57:45.200 --> 57:50.720]  we don't care. Call Pfizer and let them know. Of course, Pfizer, when he contacted them,
[57:50.720 --> 57:57.440]  they didn't care. And so is that willful misconduct? Does Pfizer know that it is willful
[57:57.440 --> 58:03.760]  misconduct when they are seeking to have extraordinary legal immunity for the harm that
[58:03.760 --> 58:08.880]  they know they're going to do with these vaccines, threatening and blackmailing three countries?
[58:08.880 --> 58:16.080]  Because again, this is at the point where if you don't get the shots globally, all of these
[58:16.080 --> 58:20.560]  governments, and I've said it so many times, it doesn't matter what political party, it doesn't
[58:20.560 --> 58:26.240]  matter what claimed political philosophy they have. They were all conspiring together. This was a
[58:26.240 --> 58:33.360]  global conspiracy of the leaders of every single country. How can people not be upset with this?
[58:34.640 --> 58:40.880]  This is so, and people just got tired of the masks and the silly six feet apart rules and just
[58:40.880 --> 58:45.840]  stopped complying, walked away and left it at that. They didn't come back and say, wait a minute,
[58:45.840 --> 58:51.520]  you know, we need to bring these people to heel. It's amazing. However, the PREP Act requires that
[58:51.520 --> 58:58.800]  willful misconduct claims first be adjudicated through CICP, even though CICP bars claims that
[58:58.800 --> 59:07.280]  fall below its serious physical injury threshold. So it's a classic unconstitutional catch-22
[59:07.280 --> 59:13.600]  scenario for prospective claimants, according to the lawsuit. Yeah, they wargamed this thing out.
[59:14.320 --> 59:21.280]  Former US health secretary under Biden, Javier Becerra, declared the end of the COVID-19 public
[59:21.360 --> 59:29.200]  health emergencies in May of 2023. However, the declarations did not end a separate public health
[59:29.200 --> 59:36.640]  emergency that leaves the Trump shot covered under the PREP Act. Yeah, they play these little legal
[59:36.640 --> 59:43.280]  games with us, don't they? And that's what Javier Becerra was. He was brought in. Trump had as his
[59:43.280 --> 59:49.680]  head of HHS, a former CEO of Eli Lilly, who was going to run this whole thing through and create
[59:49.680 --> 59:57.200]  the vaccine. Then Biden was the one who was going to push it as a requirement and was going to make
[59:57.200 --> 01:00:02.480]  sure that they maintained legal immunity for the pharmaceutical company. So they brought in a lawyer,
[01:00:03.440 --> 01:00:06.720]  nobody with a medical experience, but they brought in a lawyer, Javier Becerra,
[01:00:07.280 --> 01:00:12.800]  to shepherd this thing through, to use what Trump, this bioweapon that Trump had created
[01:00:13.360 --> 01:00:21.840]  with this pharmaceutical administration. Just before the end of Biden's term, Becerra extended
[01:00:21.840 --> 01:00:28.240]  the PREP Act's liability shield for COVID-19 countermeasures until December 31st,
[01:00:28.960 --> 01:00:36.640]  2029. It was the 12th extension since 2020. As of December...
[01:00:36.640 --> 01:00:40.720]  It's Britsky. I don't know how they let me on this podcast, but while I'm here, I might as well tell
[01:00:40.720 --> 01:00:46.960]  you, the only place to play blackjack roulette and live craps in Texas is spinquest.com, baby.
[01:00:50.560 --> 01:00:56.880]  New users get a $30 coin package for only $10. I mean, that's a hell of a deal for all you
[01:00:56.880 --> 01:01:03.680]  10-gallon hatwares down there in Texas. SpinQuest is a free-to-play social casino.
[01:01:03.680 --> 01:01:06.640]  Void where prohibited. Visit spinquest.com for more details.
[01:01:34.160 --> 01:01:46.640]  First, CICP has compensated only 42 vaccine-related claims out of 14,000 claims filed,
[01:01:47.440 --> 01:01:52.000]  less than 0.3%. A lot of people don't know about this. A lot of people look at it and say,
[01:01:52.000 --> 01:01:59.280]  well, they're not going to pay me. Why bother? The median payout for a COVID-19 vaccine injury
[01:01:59.920 --> 01:02:06.640]  has been just over $4,000, $4,100. However, the average payout is $155,000.
[01:02:08.000 --> 01:02:14.240]  That is skewed by two unusually large payouts. Without those two large payouts, the average
[01:02:14.240 --> 01:02:23.920]  compensation amount would fall to $5,100. When I look at this, I think about another Republican,
[01:02:23.920 --> 01:02:28.800]  Mike DeWine, the governor of Ohio. He's the one who came up with the million-dollar vaccine
[01:02:28.800 --> 01:02:37.600]  lottery. Isn't that amazing? So there's never been a successful challenge to the CICP.
[01:02:37.600 --> 01:02:44.320]  So we'll see what happens with it. Meanwhile, Rod Snyder is criticized by a left-wing mediaite
[01:02:44.880 --> 01:02:51.200]  because he brags that he beat Gavin Newsom's vaccine rules. Newsom put in a vaccine rule,
[01:02:51.200 --> 01:02:55.440]  saying, you're not going to have any concerts unless you've got less than 1,000 people.
[01:02:56.240 --> 01:03:00.320]  He says, OK, well, we'll have 999. That way nobody gets sick, right?
[01:03:03.680 --> 01:03:11.280]  It's interesting. Mediaite criticizes him for this. The liberals hate Trump, but they love his
[01:03:11.280 --> 01:03:18.000]  bioweapon. The MAGA people hate the bioweapon, but they love Trump, who brags about being the
[01:03:18.000 --> 01:03:26.720]  father of it. So I say, America has gone mad. M-A-D. Make America double think.
[01:03:29.280 --> 01:03:33.520]  Neither the left nor the right can connect the dots on any of this stuff.
[01:03:34.320 --> 01:03:41.520]  Rob Snyder said he beat Newsom's COVID-19 check requirements by lowering his ticket sales to 999
[01:03:42.240 --> 01:03:47.680]  to avoid the state mandate that you would have to check people's vaccine cards to come to an event.
[01:03:48.960 --> 01:03:55.840]  On a December 20th interview, he said, in California, Gavin Newsom closed churches,
[01:03:56.400 --> 01:04:02.800]  but he kept open strip clubs, which I appreciate it, he said. And he kept open the liquor stores
[01:04:02.800 --> 01:04:08.400]  and the weed stores. And it was like, what? Then he closed private businesses. He said,
[01:04:08.400 --> 01:04:12.720]  if you have more than 1,000 people when you perform, then they have to bring their vaccine
[01:04:12.800 --> 01:04:18.320]  cards. So I said, okay, just sell 999 tickets. I'm not going to force anyone to do anything.
[01:04:19.120 --> 01:04:23.600]  He said, this was all a form of coercion, something out of the 1940s with the Japanese
[01:04:23.600 --> 01:04:28.640]  internment camps. An American citizen, all of a sudden you weren't. So you always have to be
[01:04:28.640 --> 01:04:34.160]  aware historically that you're an American citizen until you're not, because these Japanese citizens
[01:04:34.160 --> 01:04:38.800]  had everything taken away from them and were thrown into camps. Have we seen something like
[01:04:38.800 --> 01:04:42.960]  that today under Trump? He's not going to criticize Trump, actually. He's a big fan of Trump.
[01:04:44.240 --> 01:04:49.120]  These were American citizens, something that we need to be aware of. Under COVID, we're able to
[01:04:49.120 --> 01:04:54.880]  see your small business, your restaurant shut, shuttered, your ability to make money, your
[01:04:54.880 --> 01:05:00.560]  ability to take care of your family stopped. And what did they do? They printed money and all this
[01:05:00.560 --> 01:05:06.960]  stuff. At the same time, at the taxpayer's expense, devaluing all of our money and setting in
[01:05:09.760 --> 01:05:16.000]  effect this massive ramp up of the federal deficit, the one thing that Trump will never
[01:05:16.000 --> 01:05:21.040]  talk about, the government deficit. You know, Hillary called us deplorable. Trump called us
[01:05:21.040 --> 01:05:28.400]  nonessential. And he bankrupted Main Street mom and pop businesses because he wanted to push stimulus,
[01:05:28.960 --> 01:05:36.720]  train people about universal basic income. He said, we have to warn Americans of the potential
[01:05:36.720 --> 01:05:47.840]  this country to become authoritarian. Sorry, it was in 2020. It was authoritarian. And it was
[01:05:48.640 --> 01:05:54.800]  just insanity. I really feel like I don't want the Democrat Party trying to run my life, he said.
[01:05:54.800 --> 01:05:57.920]  And there's not one aspect of your life that they don't want to interfere with.
[01:05:57.920 --> 01:06:07.440]  See, again, he falls back into the partisan mind trap. It's not just Democrats who are destroying
[01:06:07.440 --> 01:06:13.760]  your life. It's Republicans who are creating the military bioweapon. It's Republicans who actually
[01:06:13.760 --> 01:06:22.080]  did the lockdown. The lockdown stuff was all Trump. Some of it was continued, yes. But the lockdown
[01:06:22.160 --> 01:06:28.560]  stuff that happened in 2020 was all Trump. And the money that he paid to hospitals to kill people
[01:06:29.280 --> 01:06:35.760]  was 100% on Trump and people like Peter Navarro that he brought back. So again,
[01:06:36.480 --> 01:06:41.200]  what about Trump? What about Bush? What about Reagan? What about the profits for the
[01:06:41.200 --> 01:06:47.760]  pharmaceutical companies? What about the military depopulation program and the global conspiracy
[01:06:48.640 --> 01:06:53.920]  of all of these governments that was a part of that? Yeah, let's not think about that. It'd be
[01:06:53.920 --> 01:06:59.120]  too scary, right? Well, we've got some comments here, Travis. I've been talking for a while. I'll
[01:06:59.120 --> 01:07:04.240]  let you read the comments. That's right. We've got Mark Young. He says, in the spirit of the
[01:07:04.240 --> 01:07:08.800]  Declaration of Independence, list of tyrannical acts of King George III. This is a list of King
[01:07:08.800 --> 01:07:16.080]  Trump's oath violations, crimes, and broken promises. We have Ben Laden Bernanke. He says,
[01:07:16.080 --> 01:07:20.800]  it's permissible to have our military be violently attacked, the USS Liberty in 1967,
[01:07:20.800 --> 01:07:25.440]  because that's Israel. But if any one of the urban peasants harms the hair of our jackboots,
[01:07:25.440 --> 01:07:30.480]  then it's on. That's right. You don't even film them. Filming them is an act of terrorism,
[01:07:30.480 --> 01:07:38.240]  now we're told. They're in public. Nibiru 2029. They didn't create a vaccine for a COVID virus.
[01:07:38.240 --> 01:07:42.960]  They created the COVID scandemic for the vaccine. That's right. That's what Dark Winter was all
[01:07:42.960 --> 01:07:49.920]  about. Cicada 17. Says, yesterday was Reflection Sunday at our church with an open mic. One man
[01:07:49.920 --> 01:07:55.360]  listed off 10 people close to him that died over the past year. All I could think was, it's that
[01:07:55.360 --> 01:08:03.040]  poison shot. And Max, we all have this play acting in Minnesota. Trump pretending he's going after
[01:08:03.040 --> 01:08:08.400]  the leadership, but Waltz is starting a new Somali charity programs and declaring his run for a third
[01:08:08.400 --> 01:08:12.960]  term. Such amazing chutzpah. Would be my guest, Trump and Walter in the same club,
[01:08:12.960 --> 01:08:20.560]  just playing opposing positions. Like Soros, has he been arrested yet? All BS. That's so true. Yes.
[01:08:21.360 --> 01:08:24.400]  Is that it? Is that all the comments we got? We're gonna take a quick break, folks,
[01:08:24.400 --> 01:08:36.560]  and we will be right back.

[01:11:46.560 --> 01:11:50.160]  Well, just recently, I think it was around Thanksgiving, that Sean Duffy, the
[01:11:51.680 --> 01:11:57.280]  Department of Transportation secretary, said people are dressing really slovenly, you know,
[01:11:57.280 --> 01:12:01.840]  as they go to fly. We need to stop that. You know, you need to have some self-respect and all the
[01:12:01.840 --> 01:12:08.240]  rest of stuff. Well, then just before Christmas, the TSA is warning flyers, do not wear any festive
[01:12:08.240 --> 01:12:15.120]  clothing. Yeah, hey, slave, don't get any ideas. You know, none of this fancy stuff. It's going to
[01:12:15.120 --> 01:12:20.320]  interfere with our naked body scanners that we've got here. And we'll have to give you increased
[01:12:20.320 --> 01:12:28.160]  pat downs here. TSA PSA, the body scanners don't like sparkles, said the post, which was shared
[01:12:28.160 --> 01:12:35.200]  by TSA's social media. So that's the difference between George Elwell's big brother and the big
[01:12:35.200 --> 01:12:40.400]  brother that we've got now. You know, they are, they kind of say it with a smile. Isn't that nice?
[01:12:41.440 --> 01:12:46.160]  We don't want to dull your holiday shine, but we don't recommend wearing your sparkly holiday
[01:12:46.160 --> 01:12:52.000]  sweater to the airport. Holiday sweaters can sometimes feature sequins or metallic materials.
[01:12:52.080 --> 01:12:59.120]  They can set off the scanner and lead to extra security screening. Well, the scanner sets me off.
[01:13:01.360 --> 01:13:08.480]  I'd say, good, everybody wear a holiday sweater, set it off, shut it down. Sparkles or sequins,
[01:13:08.480 --> 01:13:13.200]  because those are two different things, darling, said one user. See, that's what they're going to
[01:13:13.200 --> 01:13:21.440]  do. They're not going to complain about the TSA and what they're doing. They're going to
[01:13:21.440 --> 01:13:27.680]  quibble about whether it is sparkles or sequins. I thought we were supposed to dress up to fly,
[01:13:27.680 --> 01:13:32.480]  said another. Well, the website also warned the passengers could be asked to remove their
[01:13:32.480 --> 01:13:39.360]  outer garments when going through the scanner. You can dress up. We're going to dress you down.
[01:13:39.360 --> 01:13:43.360]  We're going to strip search you. We're going to put our hands on you because you are our slave.
[01:13:43.360 --> 01:13:50.560]  This is training folks. The training for the security state. TSA recently answered a slew
[01:13:50.560 --> 01:13:54.880]  of burning questions about what you can and cannot bring through airport security,
[01:13:54.880 --> 01:14:00.880]  head of Christmas time, sharing vital advice for those who are traveling with gifts on this website.
[01:14:00.880 --> 01:14:06.400]  Don't wrap stuff up. We'll have to tear all the wrapping off. I'm so sick of the TSA and the
[01:14:06.400 --> 01:14:13.120]  federal government and its micromanaging of our lives. TSA encourages passengers traveling with
[01:14:13.120 --> 01:14:19.440]  gifts this holiday season to use bags, which can be opened and gone through gift boxes and the like.
[01:14:19.440 --> 01:14:24.160]  Kids can remove. TSA officers can inspect those gifts if necessary
[01:14:24.720 --> 01:14:30.080]  and avoid the possibility of opening fully wrapped presents. They're minded flyers at
[01:14:30.080 --> 01:14:35.600]  snow globes, which we've had for the longest time. They are now a security threat and you
[01:14:35.600 --> 01:14:43.360]  cannot travel with a snow globe. It's so great that the TSA is on top of all these threats.
[01:14:44.160 --> 01:14:52.160]  Now they know they don't exist. Let me tell you, the TSA is a threat. You just don't realize it,
[01:14:52.160 --> 01:14:58.800]  perhaps. Maybe the listeners of this program do. Snow globes are never a problem, but now they are.
[01:14:58.800 --> 01:15:05.520]  It assured the customers that yes, you are allowed to travel with live plants.
[01:15:05.520 --> 01:15:11.040]  So you can bring your poinsettias. Isn't that generous of them? Until they change their mind
[01:15:11.920 --> 01:15:18.880]  and the poinsettias go the way of the snow globes. So new airport DNA law is now in effect.
[01:15:19.760 --> 01:15:23.120]  You know when they said we're going to get the DNA of people traveling into this country from
[01:15:23.120 --> 01:15:30.800]  even friendly nations? That went into effect December the 26th. Isn't that interesting?
[01:15:31.440 --> 01:15:37.040]  The new rule targets citizens entering or leaving the U.S., non-citizens I should say,
[01:15:37.680 --> 01:15:44.160]  and you now are subject to facial recognition, DNA, social media,
[01:15:45.600 --> 01:15:50.400]  five years, all the rest of this stuff. And the facial recognition pictures will be stored
[01:15:50.960 --> 01:15:56.480]  up to 75 years. At that point, I guess I figure you don't have a face left anymore because you're
[01:15:56.480 --> 01:16:04.880]  dead. So let it go. So the new rules expand what officials are legally allowed to ask for.
[01:16:05.440 --> 01:16:12.800]  Let that sink in. These are rules, not laws. And these are rules that are being written
[01:16:13.360 --> 01:16:18.800]  by the officials who give themselves legal allowance to do whatever they wish.
[01:16:20.320 --> 01:16:28.480]  This is what our country has become now. We're no longer a country of laws established by Congress.
[01:16:28.480 --> 01:16:34.480]  We don't care about the Constitution. Instead, the bureaucracy writes its own rules. They enforce
[01:16:34.480 --> 01:16:41.280]  them. They judge you for your violation of them. The rules are not laws. The Constitution has not
[01:16:41.280 --> 01:16:48.560]  been amended. They have the power to do this, but they have no authority for any of this tyranny.
[01:16:49.760 --> 01:16:54.000]  The new rules could further dampen demand to visit the U.S. by foreign travelers.
[01:16:54.560 --> 01:17:01.600]  International visits to the U.S. fell in 2025 to 85 percent of 2019 levels.
[01:17:02.480 --> 01:17:10.640]  The group expects arrivals to rebound in 2026, but only to about 89 percent of pre-pandemic levels.
[01:17:12.000 --> 01:17:15.520]  Like I said before, the federal government is like a boa constrictor.
[01:17:16.960 --> 01:17:24.080]  The constrictions are smothering us. Countries are making calls to cancel all visas for Americans.
[01:17:25.040 --> 01:17:32.000]  Here's part of the travel wars. This is not in response to the DNA and social media requirements,
[01:17:32.000 --> 01:17:39.360]  but this is a total of 39 countries that now face a total ban or restrictions of entering the U.S.
[01:17:42.160 --> 01:17:46.880]  Some of these make sense. Some of them don't. Some of these are very dangerous countries.
[01:17:47.600 --> 01:17:50.720]  So they said, well, we're just not going to accept anybody from those countries.
[01:17:51.280 --> 01:17:53.280]  I don't know that's going to keep them from getting in.
[01:17:54.480 --> 01:17:59.360]  In Antigua, the prime minister there issued a statement saying that the Caribbean country's
[01:17:59.360 --> 01:18:08.720]  government was deeply disappointed, giving the justification accusing it of loose rules for
[01:18:08.720 --> 01:18:16.000]  granting citizenship by investment. Isn't Trump bragging about that in a sense? I know it's not
[01:18:16.000 --> 01:18:22.640]  citizenship. It's like a green card, but he's bragging about how he's bringing in billionaires
[01:18:22.640 --> 01:18:29.520]  who will pay $5 million to get a gold card instead of a green card. I look at that and I say he's
[01:18:29.520 --> 01:18:34.560]  bringing in the worst of the worst. He's bringing in the richest of the rich. These are not the
[01:18:34.560 --> 01:18:40.160]  people we want. I would much rather have the poor people who walk across the border than these
[01:18:40.160 --> 01:18:44.880]  grifting billionaires. Even if the people are coming across with the intention of just getting
[01:18:44.880 --> 01:18:50.720]  on the welfare system, they will do far less damage to our country than some foreign billionaire.
[01:18:52.480 --> 01:18:58.080]  Niger is completely and permanently prohibited from the issuance of visas to all U.S. citizens
[01:18:58.960 --> 01:19:07.040]  and indefinitely banning entry to its territory for nationals as a response to being banned
[01:19:07.040 --> 01:19:13.440]  themselves. I think this is a good case could be made for banning travel coming from Niger.
[01:19:13.520 --> 01:19:19.040]  It's not Nigeria. It's Niger, a Muslim majority nation with a population of over 25 million.
[01:19:19.760 --> 01:19:26.640]  The White House said that they have a visa overstay rate of 13% for business visas and 16%
[01:19:26.640 --> 01:19:31.840]  for student ones. In other words, people get a visa. Whether it's slots or live dealers,

[01:20:29.520 --> 01:20:34.000]  They come in for business purposes or student purposes and they don't go home when the visa
[01:20:34.000 --> 01:20:41.040]  expires. So they said as well as terrorists and their supporters that are actively
[01:20:41.760 --> 01:20:46.480]  planning kidnappings. So again, I don't know that's going to keep them out. Meanwhile,
[01:20:46.480 --> 01:20:52.880]  you have airlines calling in psychologists to stop passengers risking their lives for bags.
[01:20:54.880 --> 01:20:59.120]  That was an interesting headline. What are they doing? Are they climbing onto the luggage
[01:20:59.120 --> 01:21:05.680]  carousel or something? I want that bag. No, that's not the case. And yet, when you look at this
[01:21:06.240 --> 01:21:11.840]  again, all air travel, just like everything else the government is doing, is now all psychological
[01:21:11.840 --> 01:21:19.520]  manipulation. I said for the longest time, all this TSA stuff is pure BF Skinner. It is positive
[01:21:19.520 --> 01:21:26.560]  operant conditioning. You let me touch you. You let me take scans of your naked body and I'll let
[01:21:26.560 --> 01:21:31.920]  you fly. That's positive operant conditioning. It's not saying, well, if you don't let me do this,
[01:21:31.920 --> 01:21:36.480]  I'm going to throw you in jail. No, that would be negative. The positive is you do this and
[01:21:36.480 --> 01:21:41.280]  immediately you get a treat. The only thing missing is that you don't, that's the clicker
[01:21:41.280 --> 01:21:46.880]  training that you see for dogs, dolphins, ravens and things like that. The only thing missing,
[01:21:46.880 --> 01:21:51.760]  they should have a TSA agent. When you go through the little scanner, it should give you a click.
[01:21:54.160 --> 01:22:00.800]  Now you get a treat. Mobile phone footage from recent evacuations has shown that people are
[01:22:00.800 --> 01:22:06.400]  increasingly pausing to recover their belongings from overhead lockers before evacuating a plane
[01:22:06.400 --> 01:22:14.560]  that has been wrecked. That's what they're talking about. They said people carry on valuables with
[01:22:14.560 --> 01:22:20.560]  them. Why do we carry on valuables now like that? Well, because we know that if we leave them in
[01:22:20.560 --> 01:22:25.840]  our luggage and we're not allowed to lock our luggage anymore, that there'll be thieves who
[01:22:25.840 --> 01:22:33.840]  steal stuff. This happened to Karen's brother who took a family vacation and he bought a brand new
[01:22:33.840 --> 01:22:37.920]  camera. Still had it in the box, put it in his luggage and of course that was right after they
[01:22:37.920 --> 01:22:46.960]  stopped allowing people to lock their luggage. The interesting thing that really got him angry
[01:22:46.960 --> 01:22:52.400]  was they took the camera out and then closed the box up and put the box back in.
[01:22:54.400 --> 01:23:01.200]  I guess it's easier to put the camera in their coat if they do that. Video shows the problems
[01:23:01.200 --> 01:23:06.480]  become apparent from footage of people sliding down escape chutes or stumbling from aircraft
[01:23:06.480 --> 01:23:12.240]  doors while clutching their bags. They cited the example of a Delta airline plane that overturned
[01:23:12.240 --> 01:23:18.400]  on landing in Toronto in February. Eighty passengers and crew aboard, 21 of whom sustained
[01:23:18.400 --> 01:23:23.600]  injuries. The aircraft slipped, rolled on the runway and yet there were pictures of everyone
[01:23:23.600 --> 01:23:28.240]  running away with their suitcases. Anyone who's been through this will know the flight attendants
[01:23:28.240 --> 01:23:36.000]  are going to be screaming at their top of the lungs to exit the plane immediately. They said
[01:23:36.480 --> 01:23:39.520]  the Japanese do as they told so we should be more like the Japanese.
[01:23:42.960 --> 01:23:47.840]  They want us to be submissive, completely submissive and they make no bones about it,
[01:23:47.840 --> 01:23:52.000]  do they? Well we have a comment here, a tip. Thank you very much Stealth Patriot. Really
[01:23:52.000 --> 01:23:58.400]  appreciate that and I just want to say thank you so much all of you. We had so many checks and
[01:23:58.400 --> 01:24:04.400]  cards that came in. Really do appreciate the cards. Thank you for the wishes and we have
[01:24:04.400 --> 01:24:11.440]  made our goal this month which is unusual because of your generosity. I want to thank you all and
[01:24:11.440 --> 01:24:15.680]  well let me read Stealth Patriot's comment here first. ISIS linked terrorist organization,
[01:24:16.240 --> 01:24:21.680]  the CIA, Mossad, the U.S. military, the U.S. State Department. It's hard to build a resistance
[01:24:21.680 --> 01:24:27.120]  against the system when so many so-called patriots worship the system. That's right.
[01:24:28.320 --> 01:24:32.720]  That's right. Well I want to thank people. Thank you Stealth Patriot. I want to thank the people
[01:24:32.720 --> 01:24:43.520]  who sent checks in December. Ronald C, Willem G, Lloyd P, Dane D, David and Deborah W, Jack H,
[01:24:43.520 --> 01:24:52.960]  Brent and Ingrid S, Fred and Jackie U, Richard R, Mary N, Tom and Nancy, Sammy and Abby and it's
[01:24:52.960 --> 01:24:58.480]  great to see the pictures of Sammy and Abby growing up. For years Tom and Nancy have supported
[01:24:58.480 --> 01:25:03.600]  us and they've sent pictures of their children that they're homeschooling. It's amazing to see
[01:25:03.600 --> 01:25:10.960]  how big they've gotten. Time really does fly. You see that in the young people. Scott C, Stephanie K,
[01:25:10.960 --> 01:25:22.880]  Eric O, Kelly and Philip M, Lisa K, RD in Florida, Helen T, Dale L, Heidi T, Alexandria and Thomas L,
[01:25:22.880 --> 01:25:31.920]  and TK in Ohio. Thank you all of you for your gifts to us and you've been very generous this
[01:25:31.920 --> 01:25:34.960]  month. Thank you very much. We'll be right back folks.

[01:29:26.480 --> 01:29:31.520]  Well, I'm reminded of Chicago, the musical group there. There's nothing while the city sleeps,
[01:29:32.000 --> 01:29:40.160]  men are scheming new ways to kill us. Netanyahu's got a new slant to lure Trump back into a war
[01:29:40.160 --> 01:29:47.200]  with Iran. He can't say that we got to stop the nuclear production facilities because Trump has
[01:29:47.200 --> 01:29:52.080]  already bragged about the fact that he completely destroyed them. So they've got to come up with a
[01:29:52.080 --> 01:29:58.240]  new rationale for attacking Iran, but attack Iran, we must, because that's what Netanyahu has been
[01:29:58.240 --> 01:30:02.560]  all about for 30 some odd years. I mean, he's telling everybody they're just a couple of weeks
[01:30:02.560 --> 01:30:06.960]  away from a nuclear weapon. We got to attack. We got to attack. He's been doing this, having his
[01:30:06.960 --> 01:30:16.160]  ACME cartoon bombs up behind him to scare people for decades. And these last days of the year,
[01:30:16.160 --> 01:30:22.560]  the Trump administration has boarded or seized three tankers, either loaded with Venezuelan oil
[01:30:22.560 --> 01:30:29.360]  or destined for Venezuela. The most egregious seizure in terms of illegality being a Chinese
[01:30:29.360 --> 01:30:36.640]  owned Panama flagged vessel reportedly destined for China and on nobody's sanctions list. This
[01:30:36.640 --> 01:30:42.480]  is the Ron Paul Institute writing this, by the way, in a different zone of conflict,
[01:30:42.480 --> 01:30:48.720]  the security services of Ukraine, the SBU last Friday claimed that it had struck a Russian so
[01:30:48.720 --> 01:30:55.840]  called shadow fleet tanker with aerial drones and waters of the Mediterranean sea off of Morocco.
[01:30:56.480 --> 01:31:01.600]  The SBU did not give further details of the attack, including how they had deployed a drone
[01:31:01.600 --> 01:31:10.000]  in the Mediterranean 2000 kilometers. That's about 1200 miles from Ukraine or the site from
[01:31:10.000 --> 01:31:16.560]  which they launched this Russia vows that they would retaliate. And of course, what we see now
[01:31:16.560 --> 01:31:22.880]  happening is both Russia and Ukraine attacking each other's infrastructure, primarily by going
[01:31:22.880 --> 01:31:30.880]  after energy targets, whether it's fuel refineries or electrical generation and distribution.
[01:31:31.600 --> 01:31:38.000]  Blockades, seizures and attacks very plainly are acts of war. Despite the US claims that America
[01:31:38.000 --> 01:31:44.000]  owns all the oil produced by Venezuela, until all historical US legal claims against Venezuela are
[01:31:44.000 --> 01:31:51.760]  satisfied. It is yet another ratchet to the drift of lawlessness and US foreign policy.
[01:31:52.880 --> 01:32:00.000]  These acts are preeminently aimed at China, which has large equities in the Venezuelan oil industry
[01:32:00.000 --> 01:32:06.720]  and at Russia. Add to that the $11 billion in weapons being sent to Taiwan with a significant
[01:32:06.720 --> 01:32:12.160]  amount of medium to long range missile systems being part of the plan to transfer, including
[01:32:12.160 --> 01:32:18.640]  82 high mars launchers with army attackms, I guess is what you call these things, missiles
[01:32:20.080 --> 01:32:27.360]  that would allow Taipei forces to hit targets across the Taipei Strait. The last transfer
[01:32:27.360 --> 01:32:34.960]  of the attackms has infuriated China. What this suggests is that the national strategy statement
[01:32:35.600 --> 01:32:41.680]  in respect to China says that Washington now views China no longer as constituting a prime
[01:32:41.680 --> 01:32:49.440]  threat, but only as an economic competitor. That statement is meaningless rhetoric. China is being
[01:32:49.440 --> 01:32:56.160]  treated as an adversarial threat and will respond as such. China and Russia will read the Trump
[01:32:56.160 --> 01:33:03.840]  administration by its actions rather than by this NSS rhetoric. The signals speak plainly to
[01:33:03.840 --> 01:33:10.720]  escalation. Put all this into the context of quote unquote leaks by senior Trump officials,
[01:33:10.720 --> 01:33:17.040]  which director of national intelligence Tulsi Gabbard says are lies and propaganda.
[01:33:18.160 --> 01:33:23.600]  She says the claims that the US intelligence community agrees to and supports the EU NATO
[01:33:23.600 --> 01:33:29.600]  viewpoint that Russia's aim is to invade, conquer Europe in order to gin up support for their pro
[01:33:29.600 --> 01:33:36.000]  war policies, that these are lies being pushed by what she terms the deep state warmongers and their
[01:33:36.000 --> 01:33:42.720]  propaganda media. In other words, she says US intelligence assesses that Russia seeks to avoid
[01:33:43.360 --> 01:33:50.640]  a larger war with NATO. So what Gabbard is telling us is that there is open intro warfare
[01:33:50.640 --> 01:33:55.760]  at the top of the Trump administration, international warfare within the intelligence
[01:33:55.760 --> 01:34:03.680]  community. What a surprise. I've said all along that the intelligence community, CIA and all the
[01:34:03.680 --> 01:34:08.400]  rest of them, it's not a monolithic organization. There's different factions in it and now they're
[01:34:08.400 --> 01:34:14.880]  openly holding press conferences contradicting each other. On the one side there's the CIA,
[01:34:14.880 --> 01:34:20.000]  the hawks and their European collaborators. On the other side is Gabbard's intelligence analysts and
[01:34:20.000 --> 01:34:27.200]  the larger US constituency. So where is Trump? And all this brew they ask. Why is he positioning
[01:34:27.200 --> 01:34:34.480]  himself at the cusp of another round of conflict with China? Why would he do that when US economic
[01:34:34.480 --> 01:34:41.280]  structures are so fragile? When China has shown that it has economic leverage with which to fight?
[01:34:42.080 --> 01:34:47.040]  Is the explanation the simplistic response that it's a diversion from the release of further
[01:34:47.040 --> 01:34:53.600]  Epstein images? I don't think so. I don't know if they think that or not, but they kind of leave
[01:34:53.600 --> 01:35:01.360]  that as an open question. If you go back to look at what happened in 2020, Trump pretending that
[01:35:01.360 --> 01:35:08.560]  he is an anti-globalist was the leader of the globalist conspiracy to lock down and vaccinate
[01:35:08.560 --> 01:35:14.160]  us all. He was the leader of that conspiracy. He produced the vaccine with US taxpayer money
[01:35:14.160 --> 01:35:21.760]  and with the US military and its resources. And so this I see as just more of the same,
[01:35:21.760 --> 01:35:29.680]  a global conspiracy by a globalist Trump. Why did Trump dispatch Wittkopf and Kushner to Berlin
[01:35:30.400 --> 01:35:35.360]  when the intent of Europeans to wreck the negotiating process with Russia was quite
[01:35:35.360 --> 01:35:42.320]  evident beforehand? The two American so-called envoys did not sign the European proposal. They
[01:35:42.320 --> 01:35:49.920]  sat silently, yet neither did they enter any dissent. Not even when NATO Article 5 security
[01:35:49.920 --> 01:35:58.000]  guarantees were talked about as being put into play for Ukraine. Who was it that provided the
[01:35:58.000 --> 01:36:04.640]  targeting data by which Ukraine apparently was able to attack this tanker off of the North African
[01:36:04.640 --> 01:36:14.640]  coast 2,000 kilometers from Ukraine, 1,200 miles? And why draw in Iran by seizing the Iranian
[01:36:15.440 --> 01:36:22.320]  Bella 1 ostensibly flagged to Guyana and heading towards Venezuela? Does this represent the start
[01:36:22.320 --> 01:36:28.960]  to another round to the Iranian tanker that was originally pursued by Israel? Does it suit Netanyahu
[01:36:28.960 --> 01:36:35.440]  and certain constituencies and Israel's purposes to heat up the situation with respect to Iran?
[01:36:36.400 --> 01:36:43.200]  Well, since this is written, of course, we now have Netanyahu had planned to go to Mar-a-Lago,
[01:36:44.080 --> 01:36:48.080]  but over the weekend we had some very sensational headlines that were pushed by
[01:36:48.080 --> 01:36:53.840]  mainstream media, including a dredge report. You know, I wake up Saturday and look at the
[01:36:53.840 --> 01:36:59.840]  top of the dredge report and it says, Iran declares total war. Well, that was a total lie.
[01:37:00.880 --> 01:37:07.120]  What the Iranian Prime Minister or President or whatever his title is, what he said was,
[01:37:07.120 --> 01:37:11.920]  they have engaged in total war against us. He said when we were fighting Iraq, they were
[01:37:11.920 --> 01:37:15.920]  shooting missiles at us. We knew where those missiles were coming from. But he said, this is
[01:37:15.920 --> 01:37:21.600]  a total war that's being conducted by the US, EU, Israel. They're coming at us financially. They're
[01:37:21.600 --> 01:37:26.240]  coming at us militarily. They're coming at us from every different direction. So he says that they
[01:37:26.240 --> 01:37:31.360]  have declared total war on us. It wasn't a declaration by him, but it was portrayed exactly
[01:37:31.360 --> 01:37:40.720]  the opposite way by a UK tabloid and then pushed by the dredge report and other organizations pushing
[01:37:40.720 --> 01:37:47.280]  for that war here. Netanyahu is scheduled to leave for Palm Beach on December the 28th yesterday
[01:37:47.920 --> 01:37:55.040]  to have one or perhaps two meetings with Trump. And so the thing that's on his agenda is not
[01:37:55.040 --> 01:38:01.840]  Gaza. I mean, they've gotten what they want from Trump with that. Rather, it is Iran. Iran will
[01:38:01.840 --> 01:38:08.960]  not be presented to Trump as rushing toward a nuclear breakthrough. That old cliche. That's an
[01:38:08.960 --> 01:38:12.880]  old narrative. And of course, they can't sell that because that would mean that Trump would
[01:38:12.880 --> 01:38:18.320]  have to admit that his bombing run was a failure. He's never going to say that anything he did
[01:38:18.320 --> 01:38:26.480]  was a failure, even when it's obvious to the world. The new one that's been put out by Israeli
[01:38:26.480 --> 01:38:33.120]  commentator Anna Barsky, she wrote, she said, the more immediate threat here, more than nuclear
[01:38:33.120 --> 01:38:40.640]  itself is the systematic Iranian reconstruction of the middle layer, the ballistic missile industry,
[01:38:40.640 --> 01:38:46.160]  its production lines, and it's, you know what? It sucks to be bored. But when I get on my phone

[01:39:42.240 --> 01:39:48.160]  Ability to restore the functionality to damaged air defense systems. Understand that
[01:39:48.160 --> 01:39:55.280]  it. When Putin launched this large attack against Kiev over the Christmas holidays,
[01:39:56.320 --> 01:40:04.080]  the drones were Iranian drones and they have large production. Iran is a very, very large
[01:40:04.640 --> 01:40:09.520]  country with a lot of people and a lot of production capability. And they have produced these
[01:40:10.160 --> 01:40:15.040]  suicide attack drones, produced them in large numbers so much so that the Russians are actually
[01:40:15.040 --> 01:40:22.480]  buying from them. And so this is going to be the focus by Netanyahu and those who want to
[01:40:22.480 --> 01:40:29.600]  destroy Iran that we got to stop them because the missiles. And so we can pretend that the
[01:40:29.600 --> 01:40:35.040]  nuclear program has been stopped for now so we don't embarrass Trump and we'll tell him
[01:40:35.040 --> 01:40:41.440]  that he's got to go after their missile system. So the message Netanyahu will take is that Israel
[01:40:41.440 --> 01:40:47.280]  must not allow Iran to rebuild a missile and defense umbrella that will close the skies
[01:40:47.280 --> 01:40:53.760]  over sensitive sites. Netanyahu will likely claim, will likely remind the president that Trump was
[01:40:53.760 --> 01:41:01.360]  placed in power not just to promote Israel's image but for the real politic purpose of expanding
[01:41:01.360 --> 01:41:10.160]  Israel's real world power in the region and their control over territory. So then we get to this
[01:41:10.160 --> 01:41:17.440]  headline here. The Iranian president says that Israel US are already waging full-scale war. He
[01:41:17.440 --> 01:41:23.440]  said the US, Israel and Europe are already waging full-fledged war on Iran. That a return to kinetic
[01:41:23.440 --> 01:41:29.200]  warfare will result in a more decisive response than the retaliation that was witnessed during
[01:41:29.200 --> 01:41:39.840]  June's 12-day war. A 6600 word interview that was published on the official site of Iran's leader
[01:41:39.840 --> 01:41:45.280]  there. The wide-ranging discussion addressed the full spectrum of challenges the country is facing
[01:41:45.280 --> 01:41:53.760]  including internal political, social, economic and cultural ones and so again he says the war quote
[01:41:53.760 --> 01:42:00.240]  that is making headlines came in the midst of a discussion of Iran's attempt to make the most of
[01:42:00.240 --> 01:42:06.880]  their finite energy resources and immediately followed his listing of the many small ways he
[01:42:06.880 --> 01:42:13.040]  said he personally economizes with state resources from ordering radiators turned off in offices that
[01:42:13.040 --> 01:42:20.160]  he seldom uses to shutting down a heated swimming pool that was dedicated for his own use. Then he
[01:42:20.160 --> 01:42:26.240]  pivoted and he put Iran's struggle in the context of the Israeli western efforts to weaken the
[01:42:26.240 --> 01:42:34.240]  country from economic sanctions to attempting to foster internal discontent. He said in my opinion
[01:42:34.240 --> 01:42:39.760]  we are in a full-fledged war with America, Israel and Europe. They do not want our country to stand
[01:42:39.760 --> 01:42:45.520]  on its feet. This war is worse than Iraq's war against us and again the quote about when they
[01:42:45.520 --> 01:42:49.040]  shot something at us we could see the missiles coming we knew where they're coming from. This is
[01:42:49.040 --> 01:42:55.840]  something that is coming in from every angle. He said here they're besieging us from every aspect
[01:42:55.840 --> 01:43:00.880]  they're putting us in difficulty constraint creating problems in terms of livelihood
[01:43:00.880 --> 01:43:07.680]  culturally politically and security wise they block our sales our exchanges our trade and on
[01:43:07.680 --> 01:43:14.800]  the other side expectations in society have risen consequently we must all help with all of our might
[01:43:14.800 --> 01:43:21.040]  to fix the country. So this is something that was really kind of set up for internal discussions say
[01:43:21.040 --> 01:43:25.680]  well we've got to all close ranks they are sanctioning us they're trying to cut us off
[01:43:25.680 --> 01:43:31.200]  economically they're about to attack us militarily and yet notice how this whole thing
[01:43:31.760 --> 01:43:38.320]  was presented in the press. This is the express out of the UK and this is what was put up
[01:43:38.320 --> 01:43:44.880]  at the very top of drudge. Iran declares total war on America and Europe and a huge World War
[01:43:44.880 --> 01:43:54.480]  III alert. That's not at all what he said. This is warmongering and this is taking the remarks out
[01:43:54.480 --> 01:44:00.240]  of context. In my opinion we are at total war with the U.S. Israel and Europe they want to
[01:44:00.240 --> 01:44:05.680]  bring our country to its knees. He's not making a declaration of war and of course neither is
[01:44:05.680 --> 01:44:11.520]  the U.S. Israel or EU. They just said well we just need to kill them you know we're not going to
[01:44:12.400 --> 01:44:18.720]  make a case for it. Moving the goalpost Israel now says neither Tel Aviv nor Washington should
[01:44:18.720 --> 01:44:24.960]  tolerate Iran's rebuilding of its surprisingly formidable arsenal of hypersonic and other
[01:44:24.960 --> 01:44:30.080]  ballistic missiles that the country used to retaliate when Israel initiated the 12-day war.
[01:44:31.600 --> 01:44:37.600]  According to each country's official tallies more than a thousand were killed in Iran 33 in Israel
[01:44:37.600 --> 01:44:42.640]  the war was purportedly launched because of the threat of Iran developing a nuclear weapon yet
[01:44:42.640 --> 01:44:46.880]  U.S. intelligence has long concluded that the country is not developing a weapon
[01:44:47.760 --> 01:44:55.840]  and again we have seen Netanyahu sell this idea now for what was it 35 years that within just a
[01:44:55.840 --> 01:45:00.000]  few weeks maybe months you know they're going to have a nuclear weapon we've been hearing this for
[01:45:00.000 --> 01:45:10.000]  35 years and the real issue is that as we reported before Iran's response was far more damaging than
[01:45:10.080 --> 01:45:17.040]  Israel wanted to admit to. There's now been footage that was previously banned showing
[01:45:17.040 --> 01:45:24.400]  Iranian missiles pounding a Haifa oil refinery during the 12-day war hit with three direct impacts
[01:45:25.120 --> 01:45:31.440]  massive explosion because it's an oil refinery and so that was why they pushed to shut this down
[01:45:32.240 --> 01:45:37.360]  and then come back and attack from a different angle. After only nine days Israel wanted a
[01:45:37.360 --> 01:45:43.600]  ceasefire and kept to it unlike with Gaza where they have not followed the ceasefire.
[01:45:44.240 --> 01:45:48.400]  The key reason for that is that the Iranian missiles inflicted significant damage on the
[01:45:48.400 --> 01:45:55.840]  Israelis instead of Israel succeeding in subjecting Iran under its domination as it did to Lebanon
[01:45:55.840 --> 01:46:02.960]  we now have a situation of mutual deterrence and that is unacceptable for Netanyahu unacceptable
[01:46:02.960 --> 01:46:07.280]  for his legacy and as a result the likelihood of Israel trying to attack Iran again
[01:46:07.920 --> 01:46:14.560]  is very very high and that's on top of his agenda as he's coming to Florida that will be
[01:46:15.200 --> 01:46:22.800]  today. The American right is in the midst of a growing civil war over U.S. support for Israel
[01:46:22.800 --> 01:46:28.880]  with many conservatives still incensed over Trump's decision to support and then to commit U.S. forces
[01:46:28.880 --> 01:46:36.000]  to Israel's war on Iran in June. The question is whether Trump's instinctive subservience to Israel
[01:46:36.800 --> 01:46:44.800]  it's not instinctive it's bought he's a whore and his U.S. based collaborators will overcome
[01:46:44.800 --> 01:46:50.560]  reservations about blowing up the conservative coalition heading into next year's high stakes
[01:46:50.560 --> 01:47:00.880]  midterms. Well again this would not be happening if Iran didn't have the will because this all goes
[01:47:00.880 --> 01:47:09.520]  back to the CIA overthrowing the democratically elected government decades before you had the
[01:47:09.520 --> 01:47:17.040]  blowback with the Ayatollah and the taking over the U.S. embassy. This is one of the best examples
[01:47:17.040 --> 01:47:25.440]  I think of CIA intrigue blowing up in our face. We wouldn't have the radical Ayatollahs there
[01:47:25.440 --> 01:47:31.360]  if it hadn't been for the coup that put in the totalitarian Shah of Iran and the CIA that trained
[01:47:31.360 --> 01:47:42.960]  his brutal secret police and so that's what we're dealing with now and it is all because of the CIA's
[01:47:42.960 --> 01:47:50.880]  intrigue and because of the desire to steal the oil. That's what Trump is about now in Venezuela.
[01:47:50.880 --> 01:47:54.800]  What are they going to do in Venezuela? Are we going to wind up with another Iran there?
[01:47:55.440 --> 01:47:58.960]  Are we going to wind up with another quagmire Afghanistan there?
[01:48:00.800 --> 01:48:07.760]  So in my opinion we are at total war with the U.S. he said and he's talking about this as
[01:48:07.760 --> 01:48:14.880]  from their perspective that the U.S. has declared total war on them and Trump is already doing the
[01:48:14.880 --> 01:48:20.160]  talking points of Netanyahu. He doesn't even need to have a visit from Netanyahu he just gets a call
[01:48:20.160 --> 01:48:30.640]  from his donors who tell him what to do. So this is as we look at happy new year or is it going
[01:48:30.640 --> 01:48:35.520]  to be happy new wars that we're going to have this next year? A lot of them that Trump is working on.
[01:48:35.520 --> 01:48:40.240]  A lot of wars for a guy that prides himself on trying to get the Nobel Peace Prize.
[01:48:40.240 --> 01:48:45.680]  Yeah what a fraud he is it's just amazing. No one's ever deserved it more than he has though.
[01:48:45.680 --> 01:48:50.080]  That's as fraudulent Travis as him saying that he is an anti-globalist and then
[01:48:50.720 --> 01:48:59.120]  leading the globalist COVID conspiracy against everybody. Trump said that the administration
[01:48:59.120 --> 01:49:04.960]  viewed Iran as nearing a nuclear breakout before the June attacks but he says that
[01:49:06.000 --> 01:49:10.000]  they destroyed that but now we got to get their missiles and that's exactly what Netanyahu is saying.

[01:50:14.560 --> 01:50:22.400]  the weekend and again I've talked for a very long time about the persecution of Christians in Nigeria.
[01:50:22.400 --> 01:50:29.040]  I believe that's true. There's very credible eyewitness accounts of that and we have seen
[01:50:29.040 --> 01:50:35.920]  what Boko Haram does and even attacking other Muslims in some cases but the Nigerian government
[01:50:36.560 --> 01:50:42.240]  and the establishment press here has poo-pooed that idea. Trump on the other hand seized on it
[01:50:42.240 --> 01:50:47.200]  because he realized that it was something that bothered American Christians here. So he seized
[01:50:47.200 --> 01:50:53.200]  on it. Thought it would be a Christmas gift to virtually signal to Christians that he's going to
[01:50:53.200 --> 01:50:59.680]  kill those bad guys that are engaged in mass murder of Christians in Nigeria. The problem is
[01:51:00.720 --> 01:51:06.640]  that it's not just Cash Patel and his keystone cops at the FBI who can't get anything done.
[01:51:07.360 --> 01:51:13.440]  The Trump administration attacked the wrong people basically. It was totally ineffective
[01:51:14.080 --> 01:51:20.880]  and in the wrong area. What a clown show this is. We're going to be the world's policemen. We'll
[01:51:20.880 --> 01:51:29.200]  be the world's keystone cops and this is all really for just show and it's really for the military
[01:51:29.200 --> 01:51:35.200]  industrial complex to sell more missiles, more weapons. Trump says that the U.S. launched strikes
[01:51:35.200 --> 01:51:44.240]  against ISIL in northwest Nigeria. Well, wait a minute. ISIL, ISIS, al-Qaeda, al-Nusra, all these
[01:51:44.240 --> 01:51:52.080]  different, Mujahideen, all these different synonyms for the same organization that we both ally
[01:51:52.080 --> 01:51:57.360]  ourselves with and fight against but that was the organization that he put in charge in Syria
[01:51:58.080 --> 01:52:03.760]  and he brought the guy in, if you remember, to celebrate him into the White House and the Oval
[01:52:03.760 --> 01:52:08.960]  Office. It's very deferential to the guy. An Islamic terrorist who's also killing Christians
[01:52:08.960 --> 01:52:14.400]  but we're not going to do anything about the Syrian terrorist that was our ally but he said,
[01:52:14.400 --> 01:52:19.680]  tonight at my direction, as commander in chief, the U.S. launched a powerful deadly strike against
[01:52:19.680 --> 01:52:28.640]  ISIS terrorist scum in northwest Nigeria. So he did that on Truth Social on Christmas night.
[01:52:28.640 --> 01:52:33.440]  Peace on earth. There we go. I have previously warned these terrorists that if they don't stop
[01:52:33.440 --> 01:52:39.680]  slaughtering Christians, they'd be held to pay and tonight there was. The U.S. military's African
[01:52:39.680 --> 01:52:45.680]  command, AFRICOM, said in a post on X that the airstrike was carried out at the request of
[01:52:45.680 --> 01:52:53.120]  Nigerian authorities and had killed multiple ISIS terrorists. Well, residents of a village,
[01:52:53.680 --> 01:52:58.160]  Jabo, I guess that if they got a hut, it'd be Jabo the Hut, right?
[01:52:58.160 --> 01:53:04.240]  Not we two, solo.
[01:53:04.240 --> 01:53:10.800]  Have said the strikes caused alarm and that their village has never experienced an attack by ISIL.
[01:53:11.440 --> 01:53:16.000]  As it approached our area, the heat became intensive, said one person they spoke with.
[01:53:16.000 --> 01:53:20.560]  Our rooms began to shake. Fire broke out. The Nigerian government should take appropriate
[01:53:20.560 --> 01:53:25.360]  measures to protect us as citizens. We have never experienced anything like this before.
[01:53:25.360 --> 01:53:30.080]  In other words, we've never been attacked by these ISIS terrorists before, but now we're being
[01:53:30.080 --> 01:53:36.080]  attacked by the American government. And why were they not attacked by the ISIS terrorists?
[01:53:36.080 --> 01:53:42.880]  Because they were Muslims and they're not attacking Muslims in the Jabo area.
[01:53:43.600 --> 01:53:49.200]  The U.S. government does that. So grateful for the Nigerian government's support and cooperation,
[01:53:49.200 --> 01:53:56.080]  said War Pete when he's writing on social media. Warning of more to come without providing any
[01:53:56.080 --> 01:54:04.480]  details. Afrikan said that the strike occurred in the Saboto state, a reference to Nigeria's
[01:54:04.480 --> 01:54:11.120]  Sakoto state. They don't even have the name right. I guess that's one of the reasons why they attacked
[01:54:11.120 --> 01:54:14.400]  a predominantly Muslim area that was not being attacked by the Muslim terrorists,
[01:54:15.120 --> 01:54:20.880]  because they don't even know the name of the place. This is America where we don't know
[01:54:20.880 --> 01:54:24.720]  who it is we're fighting or why we're fighting. We don't even know the names of the places that
[01:54:24.720 --> 01:54:29.920]  we're bombing. Nigerian foreign minister confirmed on Friday that the strike had been carried out in
[01:54:29.920 --> 01:54:33.200]  coordination with his country's authorities. They're trying to get out in front of this. They don't
[01:54:33.200 --> 01:54:38.320]  want to conflict with the U.S. government. And so they're saying, yeah, we're doing that. We don't
[01:54:38.320 --> 01:54:45.200]  want these people. And it's not really the case, as we've had people telling us over the years,
[01:54:45.200 --> 01:54:50.080]  the Nigerian government has been passive in terms of this. Whether they're attacking
[01:54:50.080 --> 01:54:54.800]  Christians or Muslims, they've done nothing. And in many cases when they're attacking the Christians,
[01:54:55.600 --> 01:55:03.440]  they stand there and watch. Nigeria's government dismissed Trump's assertions that they are
[01:55:03.440 --> 01:55:08.320]  persecuting Christians, saying armed groups target both Muslim and Christian communities
[01:55:08.320 --> 01:55:12.800]  in the country. So they're doing it equally. So there you go. Yeah, but what about when they
[01:55:12.800 --> 01:55:16.400]  attack the Muslims? So I guess they got a license to kill Christians now as well.
[01:55:16.960 --> 01:55:23.280]  This is where this what aboutism always lands, right? We have the Republicans get caught red
[01:55:23.280 --> 01:55:26.560]  handed doing some things. Yeah, but look at the Democrats do the same thing. What about that?
[01:55:27.520 --> 01:55:31.280]  And so this is the way this goes. Instead of saying both of these things are wrong,
[01:55:31.280 --> 01:55:35.760]  we're going to stop it. They says, oh, you know, it happens to both sides. So who knows? We can't
[01:55:35.760 --> 01:55:42.560]  do anything about it. So they confirmed on Friday that the Nigerian authorities were engaged in
[01:55:42.560 --> 01:55:47.600]  structural security cooperation with international partners, including the United States of America.
[01:55:47.600 --> 01:55:52.880]  There's nobody else involved in any of this stuff. To look at the issue of alleged Christian genocide
[01:55:52.880 --> 01:55:59.760]  in Nigeria, Sokoto State is probably the last place many Nigerians would think it's happening,
[01:56:00.720 --> 01:56:06.640]  said Al Jazeera's reporter, explaining that the vast majority of the state's population is Muslim,
[01:56:06.640 --> 01:56:11.840]  and there'd been few if any attacks on Christians in the region that he could recall, because there's
[01:56:11.840 --> 01:56:19.200]  not many Christians there. They go into the other areas. So is this, you know, when we
[01:56:20.240 --> 01:56:27.360]  when we look at this on Christmas, you know, facts are clashing. As Trump claims, he hit ISIS
[01:56:27.360 --> 01:56:32.880]  and is protecting Nigerians. And let's say the situation on the ground is far more complicated.
[01:56:33.680 --> 01:56:39.680]  Sokoto, not saboto state, which was hit by more than 12 Tomahawk missiles Thursday night,
[01:56:40.320 --> 01:56:46.960]  is populated overwhelmingly by Muslims. And so there's not a problem of Christian persecution
[01:56:46.960 --> 01:56:54.080]  there, because there's not Christians to persecute there. And we don't know the difference,
[01:56:54.080 --> 01:56:59.200]  evidently. Even as the Nigerian authorities have disputed Mr. Trump's claims about Christian
[01:56:59.200 --> 01:57:05.120]  genocide, they've chosen to respond to his threats by cooperating with his administration.
[01:57:06.400 --> 01:57:13.600]  So one of the areas that was hit in Jabo, analysts said, was not known to harbor any terrorist or
[01:57:13.600 --> 01:57:17.840]  bandit groups. We heard a booming sound like that of an aircraft coming from the western part of
[01:57:17.840 --> 01:57:24.320]  the town and going east and a sound like a siren, followed by a powerful air force that's nearly
[01:57:24.320 --> 01:57:30.240]  shifted the roofs of our houses. He said nearby residents thinking an aircraft had crashed,
[01:57:30.800 --> 01:57:36.960]  rushed into a nearby farm where they found pieces of ordinance. A farmer's hut had been set on fire,
[01:57:36.960 --> 01:57:42.080]  but nobody was hurt. He added that he did not know of any terrorist camps in the area. This reminds me
[01:57:42.720 --> 01:57:50.000]  of when cruise missiles were sent to blow up the tents of Muammar Gaddafi at one point in time.
[01:57:50.000 --> 01:57:55.200]  Reagan did that. I think it did blow up the tent of one of his kids and killed one of his kids,
[01:57:55.200 --> 01:58:00.080]  but that was it. It didn't do anything militarily. These things cost millions of dollars a piece
[01:58:01.280 --> 01:58:08.960]  to blow up tents. In this particular one, it set on fire a farmer's hut, but nobody was hurt.
[01:58:08.960 --> 01:58:17.200]  Nobody died. Sokoto State is home to the Sultan of Sokoto, who is the spiritual leader of Nigeria's
[01:58:17.200 --> 01:58:24.640]  Muslim population. See, that's perhaps why they targeted it. Nevertheless, it is not going after
[01:58:24.640 --> 01:58:29.520]  any terrorist cells that they know of there. It's a good way for the U.S. for Trump to show to the
[01:58:29.520 --> 01:58:35.760]  American evangelical right that he's doing something about Nigeria, and the American evangelical
[01:58:35.760 --> 01:58:41.120]  right can cheer mass murder without us being attacked for Christmas Day. There we go.
[01:58:42.080 --> 01:58:46.800]  The strikes address both Trump's desire for publicity and the American security
[01:58:46.800 --> 01:58:52.640]  establishment's concern about the Islamic State, and also the military industrial complex being
[01:58:52.640 --> 01:59:00.800]  able to sell war and missiles. Still, some in Nigeria were puzzled by the choice of the targeting,
[01:59:00.800 --> 01:59:05.120]  and let's say the terrorist groups in Nigeria were the best documented links to ISIS,
[01:59:05.120 --> 01:59:12.160]  or in northeastern Nigeria, the other side of the country. That group, Islamic State West Africa,
[01:59:12.160 --> 01:59:20.160]  or ISWOP, splintered off from Boko Haram, another jihadist group. They said northeastern Nigeria
[01:59:20.160 --> 01:59:25.840]  has been taken over by Boko Haram. So, you know, we attacked the other side of the country.
[01:59:27.760 --> 01:59:30.720]  This goes back to the music man. You got to know the territory.
[01:59:30.720 --> 01:59:38.800]  This is the gang that can't shoot straight, but they do kill a lot of people. So, a little proof
[01:59:38.800 --> 01:59:45.200]  that the attacks were effective, despite Trump claiming that the ISIS terrorist scum were killed
[01:59:45.200 --> 01:59:51.200]  for Christmas. That's his, as I said, he had a very unmerry Christmas that was there.
[01:59:53.360 --> 01:59:57.680]  He said, I said, we're going to do it earlier, and I said, no, let's wait, said Trump, and we'll do it
[01:59:57.680 --> 02:00:04.960]  as a Christmas present. He said, every camp got decimated. This is pure BS.
[02:00:06.560 --> 02:00:12.400]  It's just amazing. Yeah, this is, for him, it's what makes him happy, is to go, who can we kill
[02:00:12.400 --> 02:00:20.240]  for Christmas? You're on his naughty list. Look out. I can't think, and then you got Laura Looney,
[02:00:20.800 --> 02:00:28.080]  okay, part of the sycophant psychotic press. I can't think of a better way to celebrate
[02:00:28.080 --> 02:00:34.160]  Christmas than by avenging the death of Christians through the justified mass killing of Islamic
[02:00:34.160 --> 02:00:41.600]  terrorists, said Laura Loomer. You got to love it. Death to Islamic terrorists. Thank you, Mr. Trump.
[02:00:42.160 --> 02:00:47.680]  There we go. Well, then we turned to Venezuela over the weekend. US has moved additional troops
[02:00:47.680 --> 02:00:54.400]  as well as special operation aircraft to the Caribbean. These are the Osprey tilt motor aircraft
[02:00:55.280 --> 02:01:01.200]  that are assigned to special op forces. They continue to build up forces there for what?
[02:01:01.200 --> 02:01:10.240]  We shall see. But again, just remember that going in and blowing up all of the military equipment
[02:01:10.240 --> 02:01:16.240]  of the Venezuelan military, whatever it is that they have, and then trying to occupy the country,
[02:01:16.240 --> 02:01:25.600]  trying to take over oil fields is a fool's errand. We're being led by a ship of fools. By the way,
[02:01:25.600 --> 02:01:35.200]  when Trump started bragging about his new Trump class ships, this is an AI meme that somebody put
[02:01:35.200 --> 02:01:46.880]  out. That's the Trump class right there. Yeah. USS Trump. Giant clown head at the top.
[02:01:49.360 --> 02:01:55.840]  And just like its namesake, it drones on and on. Well, Trump said on Monday, referring to Maduro,
[02:01:55.840 --> 02:02:00.320]  if he wants to do something, if he plays tough, it'll be the last time he's ever able to play tough.
[02:02:00.960 --> 02:02:05.440]  Yeah. It's bretsky. I don't know how they let me on this podcast, but while I'm here, I might

[02:03:10.800 --> 02:03:16.240]  Kristi Noem said that Maduro needs to be gone. One of the most explicit statements from the Trump
[02:03:16.240 --> 02:03:21.440]  administration official about the desire for regime change. Notice how the lies about fentanyl
[02:03:21.440 --> 02:03:26.880]  are gone. Trump's not talking about fentanyl coming from Canada anymore. He's not talking
[02:03:26.880 --> 02:03:31.360]  about fentanyl coming from Venezuela. We just got to get this guy out of there so we can have the
[02:03:31.360 --> 02:03:36.800]  oil. Trump officials have tried to frame the tanker seizures as some sort of law enforcement
[02:03:36.800 --> 02:03:43.840]  operation, rights anti-war. But the US has no legal right to capture ships in international waters,
[02:03:43.840 --> 02:03:49.120]  regardless of whether the vessels are under US sanctions. Trump has said the US plans to keep
[02:03:49.120 --> 02:03:55.840]  the oil and the tankers, which amounts to outright theft. Well, why wouldn't we think that our
[02:03:55.840 --> 02:04:03.040]  government, our kleptocracy, would not do that after you look at years and years of civil asset
[02:04:03.040 --> 02:04:09.920]  forfeiture, where they steal property. They don't do it after they've convicted you of a crime. They
[02:04:09.920 --> 02:04:15.680]  don't even charge you with a crime, but they charge your property with a crime. And we saw the same
[02:04:16.320 --> 02:04:21.040]  rhetoric. I think most people who don't pay any attention to civil asset forfeiture
[02:04:22.000 --> 02:04:24.960]  didn't really notice the fact that they said, well, this is a criminal tanker. This has been
[02:04:24.960 --> 02:04:30.960]  going here and going there. It's been violating sanctions. So the tanker itself was a criminal.
[02:04:30.960 --> 02:04:37.040]  It was arrested. And we're going to steal what it had in its pockets, millions of barrels of oil.
[02:04:37.760 --> 02:04:42.160]  Enforcing a naval blockade against the country is traditionally considered to be an act of war.
[02:04:42.960 --> 02:04:46.960]  That, of course, would require authorization by Congress under the Constitution,
[02:04:47.600 --> 02:04:51.920]  if we're going to pay any attention to the Constitution. Last week, the House voted on
[02:04:51.920 --> 02:04:57.920]  the War Powers Resolution meant to block Trump from launching a war with Venezuela without
[02:04:57.920 --> 02:05:05.600]  congressional authorization. But it failed in a vote 211 to 213. So think about this.
[02:05:06.080 --> 02:05:11.600]  We have a 10th Amendment and we have, well, the 9th Amendment, I should say, that says that if you
[02:05:11.600 --> 02:05:18.400]  don't have any powers explicitly given you, you can't infer these. And so everything is prohibited
[02:05:18.400 --> 02:05:22.880]  to the federal government unless it is explicitly authorized. They have turned that the other way
[02:05:22.880 --> 02:05:29.120]  around. Everything, we can do whatever we want unless it is explicitly prohibited. And even then,
[02:05:29.760 --> 02:05:32.800]  we'll do it and then we'll see if you can beat us in court.
[02:05:33.600 --> 02:05:39.760]  This is the same thing with this. So instead of having a declaration of war, we now require
[02:05:39.760 --> 02:05:47.040]  a declaration of peace because we're at permanent war with everybody about everything. That's
[02:05:47.040 --> 02:05:51.760]  really what's happening here. They tried to stop him from a war rather than saying, wait a minute,
[02:05:51.760 --> 02:05:57.920]  you don't have the authority to go to war without a declaration from Congress. So the Trump blockade
[02:05:58.080 --> 02:06:04.080]  is leaving about $1 billion worth of Venezuelan crude oil stranded on tankers. We estimate that
[02:06:04.080 --> 02:06:10.800]  there's about 17.5 million barrels of crude oil floating on board tankers in Venezuela which are
[02:06:10.800 --> 02:06:17.920]  unable to depart due to the ongoing U.S. blockade. That's around $900 million worth of oil. This is
[02:06:19.040 --> 02:06:25.840]  coming from an organization called Tanker Trackers. And these are questions that are being
[02:06:25.840 --> 02:06:32.720]  tracked. And these are questions on X about how long it would take for land-based oil and gas
[02:06:32.720 --> 02:06:40.080]  operations in Venezuela to become clogged due to the blockade. Chevron, listen to this, Chevron is
[02:06:40.080 --> 02:06:46.800]  still importing from Venezuela and it doesn't appear that it'll stop anytime soon given that
[02:06:46.800 --> 02:06:54.880]  they are granted a waiver. Is there any question that this is piracy here? Is there any question
[02:06:54.880 --> 02:07:02.800]  that we're going to war for corporations? You know, this is corporate fascism on a scale for
[02:07:02.800 --> 02:07:08.880]  war. This is what Smedley Butler talked about. The U.S. has been doing this for a very long time.
[02:07:08.880 --> 02:07:19.840]  It used to be over fruit, now it's over oil. And so they can continue to take out oil, Chevron can,
[02:07:20.560 --> 02:07:27.840]  but we are going to shut down everything else. Our assessment, the gunboat diplomacy posture is
[02:07:27.840 --> 02:07:34.720]  designed to disrupt Venezuelan-Cuban-China oil flows and China is furious and has wargamed a
[02:07:34.720 --> 02:07:39.840]  potential conflict with the U.S. and the Caribbean. Well, we'll see about that. I think it's going to
[02:07:39.840 --> 02:07:45.680]  happen in Taiwan though, absolutely. Trump's expanded drug war will only make overdose crisis
[02:07:45.680 --> 02:07:51.280]  worse, say experts, and this is from the Free Thought Project. Now, they take the tact of
[02:07:53.040 --> 02:07:59.360]  the fact that the drug war is counterproductive and I absolutely agree with that, but they don't
[02:07:59.360 --> 02:08:05.040]  have a solution. In other words, their solution is, you know, well, everything will be just fine if
[02:08:05.040 --> 02:08:10.800]  we just legalize it, that type of thing. No, the reality is, I've talked about before, is the fact
[02:08:10.800 --> 02:08:17.040]  that, you know, you've got people who are getting involved in drugs because there is a
[02:08:18.240 --> 02:08:22.240]  vacuum, a hole in their life that they're trying to fill with stuff, and then they get addicted.
[02:08:23.040 --> 02:08:30.080]  And it's just not simple as, we'll just give them more drugs. It really is a spiritual issue,
[02:08:30.080 --> 02:08:36.000]  and as I pointed out before, you know, we have, Matt Trujala came on and gave his testimony
[02:08:36.560 --> 02:08:43.760]  about how, as a teenager, he was involved in gangs. He got involved in using drugs and selling drugs.
[02:08:44.400 --> 02:08:49.200]  The thing that got him turned around was a Christian program. In his particular case,
[02:08:49.200 --> 02:08:56.160]  it was Teen Challenge, started by the guy that wrote the book, Crossing the Switchblade. But
[02:08:56.800 --> 02:09:02.000]  if you want a program that's going to be 87% successful, that's going to be a program that
[02:09:02.000 --> 02:09:10.240]  involves Christ and a conversion of these people who have, at the core, a spiritual issue. It's
[02:09:10.240 --> 02:09:14.000]  not going to be done militarily. It's not going to be done by force. It's not going to be done
[02:09:14.000 --> 02:09:18.880]  by militarized police or by the police, by the military being used as police.
[02:09:19.520 --> 02:09:27.280]  None of that's going to work. If you use their programs, you have a 97% chance, if you use the
[02:09:27.280 --> 02:09:33.120]  psychologists and these, you know, let's give them a different drug that's legal, and we'll
[02:09:33.120 --> 02:09:37.440]  get them addicted to the methadone instead of the heroin. If you use that type of approach,
[02:09:37.440 --> 02:09:41.840]  that is guaranteed to fail 97% of the time. So which approach do you want to use if you want
[02:09:41.840 --> 02:09:47.760]  to do something about the drug issue? Do you want to use the one that is 87% successful or the one
[02:09:47.760 --> 02:10:00.000]  that is a 97% failure? And I would say that when you look at using force, law enforcement,
[02:10:00.000 --> 02:10:08.960]  or now the military, to create prohibition, that has a 100% failure rate. Why has the drug addiction
[02:10:08.960 --> 02:10:15.280]  issue become much worse in 50 years? It's become much worse because the spiritual issues in our
[02:10:15.280 --> 02:10:24.400]  country. But the drug war has made our government much worse. It's gotten them addicted to being
[02:10:24.400 --> 02:10:28.560]  able to do whatever they wish with that regard to the Constitution or the Bill of Rights.
[02:10:29.200 --> 02:10:34.080]  Trump issued an executive order on Monday declaring fentanyl a weapon of mass destruction.
[02:10:34.080 --> 02:10:39.120]  Experts say that fentanyl is not used as a weapon, and they dismiss the order as public relations
[02:10:39.120 --> 02:10:45.600]  ploy. His administration struggles to explain some kind of legal justification for waging war
[02:10:45.600 --> 02:10:52.480]  without Congress's approval. It is the latest line in a series of massive escalations in Trump's
[02:10:52.480 --> 02:11:00.800]  drug war. Again, fake fentanyl claims, just like the fake claims that he made about Canada,
[02:11:00.800 --> 02:11:05.680]  just like the fake emergencies that he used to claim the authority to be a dictator with COVID.
[02:11:05.680 --> 02:11:14.000]  Fentanyl, or FENT, or FETI, these are all catch-all terms for classes of synthetic opioids
[02:11:14.000 --> 02:11:19.360]  typically produced in Mexico, not Venezuela. They replaced heroin and prescription painkillers,
[02:11:19.360 --> 02:11:25.840]  like Oxycontin, as law enforcement intervened in the illicit drug supply. Well, now what happens
[02:11:25.840 --> 02:11:32.400]  is you always wind up as they crack down. The more they crack down, the more you get concentrated
[02:11:32.400 --> 02:11:38.000]  forms of it. We've seen this happen both with this as well as with alcohol. As a matter of
[02:11:38.000 --> 02:11:48.000]  fact, the WHO was talking about what a problem alcohol has become in Europe. Why is that? Again,
[02:11:48.000 --> 02:11:54.240]  this is all going back to a spiritual issue. I think it is the general malaise that is happening
[02:11:54.240 --> 02:12:01.120]  throughout the EU as well as the UK. I mean, you see pictures all through the year of people
[02:12:01.120 --> 02:12:08.240]  saying, well, this is Brighton or whatever, some town in the UK, and it's young people that are out
[02:12:08.960 --> 02:12:13.280]  in the middle of the night, especially young girls, completely drunk, laying in the ground,
[02:12:13.280 --> 02:12:19.120]  laying in the gutter, literally. This is the type of thing that we saw in Russia.
[02:12:20.640 --> 02:12:25.760]  vodka became a very big deal because everybody was basically locked down as slaves.
[02:12:26.400 --> 02:12:30.720]  When you look at what the government is doing with the TSA, when you look at what the government is
[02:12:30.720 --> 02:12:36.240]  doing in terms of shutting down our lives and micromanaging everything, people instinctively get
[02:12:36.240 --> 02:12:42.720]  that. Some people react by just trying to escape through a bottle or through drugs, and this is
[02:12:42.720 --> 02:12:47.600]  what's happening a great deal. People who see that they have no future. The dangerous thing is going
[02:12:47.600 --> 02:12:52.000]  to be that some people are going to see they have no future unless they get the government out of the
[02:12:52.000 --> 02:12:58.160]  way, and that's when they're going to start the violence. At this point in time, people in Europe
[02:12:58.160 --> 02:13:04.640]  are basically reacting the same way that people under the Soviets reacted, and just trying to
[02:13:04.640 --> 02:13:10.960]  escape the society by getting into the bottle, and that's what's happening all across Europe,
[02:13:10.960 --> 02:13:16.960]  as people's opportunities are being taken away, as the government is cracking down on all aspects
[02:13:16.960 --> 02:13:24.320]  of their life and taking away their ability to have a future. People are just indulging in this.
[02:13:24.320 --> 02:13:29.040]  A harsh crackdown on painkiller prescribing in the U.S. and the rise of fentanyl over the past
[02:13:29.040 --> 02:13:34.960]  15 years is associated with a surge in fatal overdoses that peaked during the COVID-19 pandemic
[02:13:34.960 --> 02:13:40.800]  again. When they took away everything, what happens? People turn to drugs or alcohol or whatever
[02:13:42.560 --> 02:13:48.080]  because they're powerless to do anything about it. It has long provided fodder for political
[02:13:48.080 --> 02:13:57.840]  fear-mongering. However, from 2023 to 2024, the CDC recorded a nearly 24% decrease in overdose
[02:13:57.840 --> 02:14:03.760]  deaths linked to opioids, stimulants, alcohol, and other drugs, a remarkable decline after more
[02:14:03.760 --> 02:14:11.840]  than a decade of crisis. So as the government got its boot off of our throats and people were able
[02:14:11.840 --> 02:14:17.440]  to get out and have a life, guess what? It started to go down, and the same thing has happened in
[02:14:17.440 --> 02:14:23.760]  Russia. After the Soviet Union fell, guess what? The rates of alcoholism there have gone way down
[02:14:23.760 --> 02:14:30.640]  as well. It is a reaction just like the way people dress at the airports, a reaction to government
[02:14:30.640 --> 02:14:38.000]  tyranny. If we really wanted to address drug use, we would start investing in HHS, which is being
[02:14:38.000 --> 02:14:44.160]  decimated under Trump. No, I disagree with this. It isn't that, well, we just need to give people
[02:14:44.160 --> 02:14:49.200]  more welfare and set up more government programs. No, that's not the answer. The answer
[02:14:49.200 --> 02:14:52.640]  is that this is a spiritual problem and it has a spiritual solution.

[02:15:56.800 --> 02:16:06.080]  charge of NorthCom, which is over the U.S., says that he is willing to authorize a tax on U.S. soil.
[02:16:07.040 --> 02:16:15.040]  This is General Gregory Geo, I guess is how he pronounced his name, Geo, of U.S. Northern Command
[02:16:15.040 --> 02:16:19.840]  during hearings when asked by Senator Jack Reed, a Democrat, if he would be willing to carry out
[02:16:19.840 --> 02:16:28.080]  orders to attack so-called designated terrorist organizations within U.S. borders. General Geo
[02:16:28.080 --> 02:16:33.120]  responded by saying, if I had questions, I would elevate this to the chairman and secretary. And if
[02:16:33.120 --> 02:16:39.280]  I had no concerns and I was confident that it was a lawful order, I would definitely execute that
[02:16:39.280 --> 02:16:46.080]  order. Well, it can't possibly be a lawful order. This is very much like the interaction
[02:16:47.840 --> 02:16:57.520]  that Sessions had with Leon Panetta. Leon Panetta was asked as a secretary of defense by Sessions.
[02:16:57.520 --> 02:17:01.440]  Sessions said, you're not going to put troops in Syria without telling Congress and having to vote
[02:17:01.440 --> 02:17:08.400]  on this. Well, Senator, we will consult with our allies in NATO and the U.N. and we'll let you know
[02:17:08.400 --> 02:17:13.360]  what we're going to do. That's basically what this guy is saying. In other words, I don't care what
[02:17:13.360 --> 02:17:19.280]  the Constitution says. That's what Leon Panetta said and that's what this guy under Trump is saying,
[02:17:19.280 --> 02:17:25.920]  the head of U.S. Northern Command. The brazen openness of General Geo, who receives his orders
[02:17:25.920 --> 02:17:32.960]  directly from War Pete to affirm such a willingness to carry out unprecedented military actions
[02:17:32.960 --> 02:17:39.440]  up to and including against U.S. citizens on American soil should be cause for alarm,
[02:17:39.440 --> 02:17:45.600]  writes the Free Thought Project. And I agree with them. Some may look at the qualifier of his
[02:17:45.600 --> 02:17:52.320]  statements and saying, well, if I had no concerns and I was confident in the lawful order, they might
[02:17:52.320 --> 02:17:59.760]  think that that is somehow a buffer against abuse. But it bears reminding the frequency with which
[02:17:59.760 --> 02:18:06.880]  this administration has shown a blatant disregard for the rule of law while simultaneously advancing
[02:18:06.880 --> 02:18:12.160]  openly hostile rhetoric towards huge swaths of the American public, referring to millions of
[02:18:12.160 --> 02:18:18.160]  average Americans as the enemy within for simply expressing dissent against the administration.
[02:18:19.040 --> 02:18:25.600]  General Geo is the authority who has personally overseen the illegal deployment of U.S. military
[02:18:25.600 --> 02:18:31.440]  forces to occupy American cities, which have expressed opposition to the president's agenda
[02:18:31.440 --> 02:18:35.600]  throughout this year. It should also be considered that these statements come
[02:18:35.600 --> 02:18:42.560]  on the backdrop of a spate of extrajudicial executions at sea. Unconstitutionally
[02:18:42.560 --> 02:18:49.920]  murdered 90 individuals accused of being narco terrorists without any proof, without any due
[02:18:49.920 --> 02:18:54.720]  process. So that's very concerning when you hear that coming from somebody saying, yeah,
[02:18:54.720 --> 02:19:01.120]  we'd do the same thing in the U.S. After the military has conducted 95 summary executions
[02:19:01.120 --> 02:19:06.800]  of civilians in the Caribbean at the direction of Trump and War Pete, it is not sufficient
[02:19:06.880 --> 02:19:14.000]  anymore for commanders to say to lawmakers that they will run any legal concerns up the chain
[02:19:14.000 --> 02:19:19.680]  at the top, of which are those who would be giving the order. Rather, to make clear that
[02:19:19.680 --> 02:19:23.600]  they will uphold the rule of law, they should be definitive in saying that they will disobey
[02:19:24.160 --> 02:19:30.240]  patently unlawful orders, which includes a scenario that Senator Reid laid out for General Geo.
[02:19:31.280 --> 02:19:35.760]  The notion of such action being taken within U.S. borders, presumably against U.S. citizens,
[02:19:36.240 --> 02:19:42.560]  should be taken with the utmost seriousness. Free Thought Project reported in September Trump's
[02:19:42.560 --> 02:19:49.680]  designation of this amorphous group, Antifa, as a terrorist organization, despite there being no
[02:19:49.680 --> 02:19:56.240]  formal organizational structure or leadership hierarchy, and the FBI being completely unable
[02:19:56.240 --> 02:20:01.680]  to specify what it even is. It's such a broad and vague designation that the administration could
[02:20:01.680 --> 02:20:07.760]  label practically anyone as a terrorist. And this is what conservatives missed in the
[02:20:07.760 --> 02:20:10.960]  no-kings protest, when people were out there wearing t-shirts saying,
[02:20:10.960 --> 02:20:14.960]  I am Antifa. What they were saying was, this is an arbitrary declaration
[02:20:16.560 --> 02:20:20.320]  levied at an organization that doesn't have any formal structures. How do you determine that
[02:20:20.320 --> 02:20:27.920]  somebody is in it, definitively, and not make mistakes about this? Especially when you have a
[02:20:27.920 --> 02:20:32.000]  government, an administration like the Trump administration, that is famous for shooting from
[02:20:32.000 --> 02:20:38.880]  the hip. We're not going to really investigate this thoroughly. We're not going to give anybody any
[02:20:38.880 --> 02:20:45.040]  due process. We just fire the missile. Pam Bondi has directed the FBI to compile a list of groups
[02:20:45.040 --> 02:20:50.240]  or entities engaging in acts that constitute domestic terrorism. Do you remember, you may
[02:20:50.240 --> 02:20:55.840]  not like Antifa, and I don't like Antifa either. I mean, hateful Marxists, we've had interactions
[02:20:55.840 --> 02:21:01.360]  with them. They'd stand there and scream racist at you. I mean, when they were screaming at Karen
[02:21:01.360 --> 02:21:06.400]  and my daughter, they said, I said to Karen at the abortion clinic, they said, oh, so you're some
[02:21:06.400 --> 02:21:11.520]  white savior or something like that. What's wrong with being white and what's wrong with being a
[02:21:11.520 --> 02:21:19.440]  savior? Since when is that a bad thing? He says, I kill my kids. Remember that clip? Yeah, you try
[02:21:19.440 --> 02:21:28.160]  to save kids. I kill my kids. Evil, hateful people. Nevertheless, there has to be a rule of law,
[02:21:28.160 --> 02:21:37.200]  a process that we go through. And just to label these people, start compiling a list, understand
[02:21:37.200 --> 02:21:42.560]  that what's going to happen when you get somebody like Hillary or Biden in after Trump has set this
[02:21:42.560 --> 02:21:47.600]  precedent and moved it further down the road? Are you going to be on his list? I mean, you've
[02:21:47.600 --> 02:21:55.280]  already been called terrorists for opposing all this pandemic stuff and everything and climate
[02:21:55.280 --> 02:21:59.840]  change and all the rest of this. I mean, if you oppose the climate change agenda, oh, you're going
[02:21:59.840 --> 02:22:05.120]  to kill everybody, right? Same thing with the pandemic, these other MacGuffins. I was labeled
[02:22:05.840 --> 02:22:12.080]  a sociopath by Scott Adams for saying that he says these freedom lovers are indistinguishable
[02:22:12.080 --> 02:22:19.040]  from sociopaths. This is the way people who support Trump think. And so the presidential
[02:22:19.040 --> 02:22:26.560]  memorandum, the NSPM 7, target those expressing opposition, quote, opposition to law and
[02:22:26.560 --> 02:22:32.320]  immigration enforcement who have extreme views in favor of mass migration and open borders
[02:22:33.520 --> 02:22:38.400]  and adherence to radical gender ideology, as well as anti-Americanism, anti-capitalism and
[02:22:38.400 --> 02:22:46.160]  anti-Christianity. So I could see this just being flipped, the script. So you're anti-DEI,
[02:22:46.160 --> 02:22:57.840]  are you? Are you anti-LGBT? Are you homophobic? Are you not in favor of humanitarian immigration?
[02:22:57.840 --> 02:23:01.520]  Well, then you are a dangerous extremist, a terrorist. I'm going to put you on the list.
[02:23:02.480 --> 02:23:08.960]  Think about that. That's why we have the rule of law. This blatant unconstitutional order,
[02:23:08.960 --> 02:23:15.520]  pretty much any and everyone who isn't MAGA is under the risk of potentially being labeled a
[02:23:15.520 --> 02:23:23.120]  domestic terror threat. And once we do that, pretty much anybody who is not a supporter of
[02:23:23.120 --> 02:23:30.400]  an administration is now a terrorist threat. And that script will flip when control of the
[02:23:30.400 --> 02:23:36.400]  government goes back to the Democrats. They will keep that. Just as Lala Harris said she was going
[02:23:36.400 --> 02:23:41.200]  to keep Trump's gun control by executive order, and Biden did keep it and started doing gun
[02:23:41.200 --> 02:23:46.000]  control by executive order. Whenever Trump lays down these precedents, they will be used
[02:23:46.960 --> 02:23:51.200]  by authoritarian criminals on the other side, and they'll be used against you. So don't
[02:23:51.200 --> 02:23:56.240]  cheer this. Don't tell me... What's going on, Texas? It's Bluff here. Are you sick and tired

[02:25:00.080 --> 02:25:05.760]  Trump has previously hinted at using the military domestically to quell opposition from his
[02:25:05.760 --> 02:25:10.560]  dissenters while refusing to acknowledge whether or not it has ruled out the use of summary
[02:25:10.560 --> 02:25:16.960]  executions of those that is labeled enemies on the aforementioned watch list. Trump has also
[02:25:16.960 --> 02:25:22.080]  recently accused a number of senators, all former military personnel of sedition, suggested that
[02:25:22.080 --> 02:25:26.880]  they be executed for their collective effort to release a statement reminding active-duty members
[02:25:27.520 --> 02:25:31.040]  their responsibility to remain faithful to their oath to the Constitution.
[02:25:31.680 --> 02:25:38.080]  Over the last several decades, preparations have been quietly been made, simultaneously with the
[02:25:38.080 --> 02:25:43.520]  militarization of law enforcement, readying the military for potential deployments against
[02:25:43.520 --> 02:25:49.040]  American citizens domestically. I was talking about this all the time back in 2013 and 2014
[02:25:49.040 --> 02:25:54.880]  with Obama. That's why we went to Fort A.P. Hill where they were doing the asymmetric warfare
[02:25:54.880 --> 02:26:01.280]  training because they were militarizing the police and they were training the military to operate
[02:26:01.280 --> 02:26:05.760]  inside of cities. Everybody was concerned about that when it was being done by Obama, but now
[02:26:05.760 --> 02:26:11.440]  it's everybody I say conservatives, but now the conservatives are just fine that the baton has
[02:26:11.440 --> 02:26:18.480]  been picked up by Trump and he's carrying it across perhaps to the finish line. Trump's ability
[02:26:18.480 --> 02:26:26.400]  to wield these terrifying powers did not appear in a vacuum. The precedent was set in an agonizing
[02:26:26.400 --> 02:26:34.240]  mission creep with every little infringement from every previous administration. That's exactly
[02:26:34.240 --> 02:26:40.800]  what's been happening. Well, we got some comments here. Travis? Yes, we do. Give me just a second.
[02:26:40.800 --> 02:26:44.160]  I need to scroll them real fast. We've been piling up.
[02:26:49.040 --> 02:26:53.840]  We have Nibiru 2029. He says if you pay close attention every year, the inflation numbers
[02:26:53.840 --> 02:27:00.240]  are high until about one month before the COLA is announced. That's something we've talked about
[02:27:00.240 --> 02:27:05.680]  quite frequently. They always revise the numbers. The cost of living adjustment because they adjust
[02:27:05.680 --> 02:27:10.480]  social security and things like that based on that. They manipulate the numbers. They do that
[02:27:10.480 --> 02:27:17.840]  with inflation. They do that with the unemployment numbers. They will always go back and revise the
[02:27:17.840 --> 02:27:25.120]  previous quarter so they don't have good numbers this quarter, but they can make a statement that
[02:27:25.120 --> 02:27:29.760]  it's actually a positive trend by revising the previous ones. This is where we're well in.
[02:27:30.720 --> 02:27:35.840]  Let's just go back in and rewrite the numbers. Numbers were always this way.
[02:27:36.800 --> 02:27:43.280]  We've always had great unemployment numbers. Cicada 17 says I love the night Christmas album. This
[02:27:43.280 --> 02:27:48.400]  year we listened to it in its entirety during our Christmas dinner as we have for the last several
[02:27:48.400 --> 02:27:54.800]  years. Well, thank you very much. Glad you enjoy it. And of course, the Christmas album is still
[02:27:54.800 --> 02:28:02.880]  available. Yeah, it is. It's available year-round. I do listen to Christmas music year-round,
[02:28:02.880 --> 02:28:08.960]  as a matter of fact. Not Santa Claus stuff or Tin Pan Alley things, but I'm not listening to
[02:28:08.960 --> 02:28:16.160]  songs about Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. But yeah, I do listen to Christmas music year-round
[02:28:16.160 --> 02:28:21.440]  and it is very relaxing, calming, actually, the stuff that I listen to.
[02:28:23.280 --> 02:28:28.400]  And I know Junior Barner, one of our listeners in chat, was having issues getting it. I don't know
[02:28:28.400 --> 02:28:32.640]  if we ever got that resolved with the holidays and everything. If that didn't get resolved,
[02:28:32.640 --> 02:28:38.160]  please shoot us an email. We want to make sure that we handle that for you. Yeah, so what we've
[02:28:38.160 --> 02:28:43.840]  done is we've uploaded it to MegaUpload and you can go there and you can actually listen online
[02:28:44.640 --> 02:28:49.680]  to the files. And you can download individual files or you can download the entire album that's
[02:28:49.680 --> 02:28:56.400]  there. And you don't have to be part of MegaUpload in order to do that. But we store them up there
[02:28:56.400 --> 02:29:02.080]  and just leave them up there. So what we do is we send you the link. And if you got any questions
[02:29:02.080 --> 02:29:08.560]  about it, just let us know. We'll help you with that. And so we can do what we can to help you
[02:29:08.560 --> 02:29:13.120]  get that down. But we've had a lot of people get it. We haven't had too many people have a problem
[02:29:13.120 --> 02:29:18.320]  with it. But we'll help you work it out if it's confusing. Yep. Any issues, just let us know.
[02:29:18.880 --> 02:29:23.440]  Do not obey says return to work after holidays to find average Americans not bragging about what
[02:29:23.440 --> 02:29:28.320]  they received as gifts. The diversity hire is bragging big time. New trucks for Christmas.
[02:29:30.080 --> 02:29:35.920]  Well, Christmas isn't about what you get. But I understand where you're coming from. Do not obey.
[02:29:35.920 --> 02:29:43.040]  I understand. Yeah. Karen Carpenter says today is the third anniversary episode of Guard Goldsmith.
[02:29:43.280 --> 02:29:51.040]  Show Liberty Conspiracy at 6 p.m. Eastern on Rumble NX. Happy anniversary. Yes. Happy anniversary.
[02:29:51.040 --> 02:29:56.880]  That went quickly, it seems like. But good for you. Good for you. I'm glad that that's happening.
[02:29:56.880 --> 02:30:03.600]  Yeah. The last few years have been a complete blur. Yeah. They go faster and faster. Yes.
[02:30:04.320 --> 02:30:08.480]  Dustin D. Helm, thank you so much for the support. Thank you. Thank you. He says,
[02:30:08.480 --> 02:30:13.760]  what a wild year. Cheers, David and the Knight family. I'm afraid things are going to get
[02:30:13.760 --> 02:30:17.280]  crazy next year as well. We're going to talk about gold and silver when we come back. Yes.
[02:30:18.400 --> 02:30:21.600]  Thank you very much. Yes, thank you. Wally Walrus says they can't even
[02:30:22.240 --> 02:30:28.320]  take off one day of murdering for Christmas. Well, I mean. How true. Yeah.
[02:30:30.320 --> 02:30:36.000]  That's dedication. And Max says we've lost control of our government. They lie to us like Trump to
[02:30:36.000 --> 02:30:40.480]  get in power, then do just the opposite of their promises. Yeah, that's right.
[02:30:41.360 --> 02:30:45.840]  We're going to take a quick break, folks, and we will be right back.

[02:33:56.000 --> 02:34:00.560]  Well, welcome back. Let's talk about gold and silver. There's some interesting developments
[02:34:00.560 --> 02:34:04.400]  that have happened. As I point out in this article, if you look at the last year, unless
[02:34:04.400 --> 02:34:09.680]  there's going to be some major volatility with gold in the last week of the year, there's been
[02:34:09.680 --> 02:34:17.360]  approximately a 70% increase in value within just a single year. And I keep going back and thinking
[02:34:17.360 --> 02:34:24.800]  about the silver and gold thing that I did with Yukon Cornelius. And I think we call that one
[02:34:24.800 --> 02:34:32.320]  right. All the fundamentals were there. We'd already seen a pretty good run up of gold in 2024.
[02:34:33.040 --> 02:34:38.880]  And everything was still in place. And yet everybody got so excited about Trump's statements
[02:34:38.880 --> 02:34:42.880]  about what he's going to do with crypto and Bitcoin and all the rest of stuff. More than anything,
[02:34:42.880 --> 02:34:49.360]  he discredited it with the actions that he did. And so Bitcoin's had kind of a rough year this
[02:34:49.360 --> 02:34:56.160]  year, but gold has done great. And silver has done even better this year. So when you look at
[02:34:56.160 --> 02:35:02.720]  something that's a 70% increase, there's this thing called the rule of thumb, or rule of 72,
[02:35:02.720 --> 02:35:07.600]  I should say. And the rule of 72 says that if you take the interest rate, let's say that you're
[02:35:07.600 --> 02:35:14.240]  making 6% interest, which of course, no banks pay any interest at all anymore. But you're in some
[02:35:15.200 --> 02:35:20.080]  investment that's not in a bank, in a savings account, and you're getting 6% interest.
[02:35:20.080 --> 02:35:26.240]  Well, what that says is you divide the 6 into 72. The rule of 72 says that it takes you about
[02:35:26.240 --> 02:35:33.840]  12 years to double your money. So if it goes up by 70% in one year, you're doubling your money
[02:35:33.840 --> 02:35:41.600]  in one year. So it's remarkable. Not the least because 2024 already ended with a 26% gain
[02:35:42.400 --> 02:35:50.000]  for the otherwise conservative asset class of precious metals. And so more than a doubling
[02:35:50.000 --> 02:35:57.280]  value in gold in just two years. That's something that you would usually think that's a hot tech
[02:35:57.280 --> 02:36:02.560]  stock that you bought rather than gold or something like that. For the most stable money that humanity
[02:36:02.560 --> 02:36:07.920]  has ever known, it's an amazing development. Those who follow geopolitical developments and
[02:36:07.920 --> 02:36:14.480]  financial markets closely, such a compressed upward movement is an unmistakable signal.
[02:36:16.000 --> 02:36:20.240]  Danger is imminent. That's what we're looking at here. And that's why we said, you know,
[02:36:20.240 --> 02:36:24.240]  last year when we were talking about this, Tony and I were saying, well, all the fundamentals
[02:36:24.800 --> 02:36:29.440]  are bad and danger is imminent. So it's going to be good for gold. And I kind of say,
[02:36:30.240 --> 02:36:36.960]  nothing has changed. Things have gone further down the wrong direction this last year.
[02:36:37.040 --> 02:36:41.840]  And next year, we're going to really escalate it because Trump is going to put in his own guy
[02:36:42.480 --> 02:36:48.240]  in charge of the Federal Reserve. And they're going to pull every phony sugar high that they
[02:36:48.240 --> 02:36:54.480]  can. And people are going to see it for what it is. And it's going to royal markets as well as the
[02:36:55.440 --> 02:36:59.760]  the American dollar. So again, it's going to be another good year for gold. I'm confident.
[02:37:00.560 --> 02:37:05.360]  It may not go up by 70%, but I think it's gonna be a good year for whether it's military conflicts
[02:37:05.360 --> 02:37:12.400]  like the Ukraine crisis or new wars that he's creating, or the global debt dynamics that are
[02:37:12.400 --> 02:37:19.040]  now affecting nearly every region. And isn't it interesting? You know, Donald Trump sees emergencies
[02:37:19.040 --> 02:37:25.920]  everywhere, except with the deficit. He doesn't ever even talk about that. He's not interested.
[02:37:25.920 --> 02:37:30.480]  He's interested in the trade deficit, but he's not interested in his own deficit,
[02:37:31.440 --> 02:37:37.040]  the massive pile up of debt that is hanging over everybody's head. And that's one of the places
[02:37:37.040 --> 02:37:41.840]  where he had the first conflict with Thomas Massey. It was over the debt. Thomas Massey
[02:37:41.840 --> 02:37:47.280]  is very big about that. They've got these little appell things that are debt counter,
[02:37:47.280 --> 02:37:54.000]  and he handed it to all the incoming freshmen members of the House. Donald Trump doesn't like
[02:37:54.000 --> 02:37:59.760]  that. He doesn't want people thinking about the debt. And they got into a big fight. And the first
[02:37:59.760 --> 02:38:06.000]  time that Trump said, we're going to get him out of office, was because Massey opposed this
[02:38:06.000 --> 02:38:09.920]  multi-trillion dollars. What is it? Three and a half, four trillion dollars or something that
[02:38:09.920 --> 02:38:14.960]  Trump ran through once he locked everybody down. Now we've got to give people welfare.
[02:38:15.680 --> 02:38:22.480]  Think about that. What an outrage that was. And Massey was upset about it. He said, no,
[02:38:22.480 --> 02:38:27.680]  you're going to have to come here and vote in person on this. And Trump flipped out.
[02:38:28.640 --> 02:38:33.600]  And he wasn't worried that they were going to die. He was worried that he was getting the way of his
[02:38:34.320 --> 02:38:39.440]  program to train people on welfare, universal basic welfare, universal basic income.
[02:38:40.240 --> 02:38:46.640]  So the global debt dynamic now is affecting nearly every region. Capital is visibly fleeing to the
[02:38:46.640 --> 02:38:52.480]  safe haven of gold. It has advantage over other assets and that there is no counterparty risk.
[02:38:52.480 --> 02:38:58.960]  You've heard Tony Aarderman say that over and over again, because it's true. And you need to
[02:38:58.960 --> 02:39:07.040]  have physical ownership, not some kind of ETF that's held by a bank in China. Something that
[02:39:07.040 --> 02:39:14.720]  represents tangible value that aside from the annual 1.6% increase in mining of gold,
[02:39:15.280 --> 02:39:20.960]  it neither inflates nor can it be arbitrarily frozen. So they're saying that typically they're
[02:39:20.960 --> 02:39:26.000]  mining about another one and a half percent every year versus when you look at
[02:39:27.760 --> 02:39:34.800]  the money supply, the quote unquote printing of money or just as Ben Bernanke said, no,
[02:39:34.800 --> 02:39:42.000]  we don't do that. We just add zeros on the computer to this stuff. And so they've been
[02:39:42.000 --> 02:39:49.440]  inflating the M2 money supply, cash deposits, short term deposits like money market funds,
[02:39:49.440 --> 02:39:54.160]  savings accounts, et cetera. That's going up seven to nine percent globally this year.
[02:39:54.880 --> 02:39:57.040]  And of course, they're doing the quantitative easing. They're going to do,
[02:39:58.880 --> 02:40:02.960]  definitely will reduce interest rates. Trump is very big about that. That's the only interest that
[02:40:02.960 --> 02:40:11.200]  he, the only interest that he has and the deficit, the federal deficit is he's got to keep those
[02:40:11.200 --> 02:40:17.360]  interest rates down because that's the amount they have to pay on the interest of the debt.
[02:40:17.920 --> 02:40:22.240]  That's one of the key reasons he wants to get the interest rate down. It's not going to lower the
[02:40:22.240 --> 02:40:29.600]  interest rates on mortgages necessarily. If the market, the market sets the 30-year mortgage
[02:40:29.600 --> 02:40:33.680]  rates and things like that. If the market thinks that lowering interest rates is going to be
[02:40:33.680 --> 02:40:39.600]  inflationary, Trump lowering the interest rates will actually cause home mortgages to go up.
[02:40:39.600 --> 02:40:45.200]  We've seen this happen several times already. But what it does do is it lowers the cost to
[02:40:45.200 --> 02:40:48.720]  the federal government for this massive accumulating debt that is there. And that's
[02:40:48.720 --> 02:40:53.280]  all he cares about. Just kicking the can down the road, let somebody, let it blow up on somebody
[02:40:53.280 --> 02:40:59.440]  else. That way he can brag about how things are so much better under him. Gold is becoming a,
[02:40:59.440 --> 02:41:05.040]  is becoming scarcer then relative to the circulating fiat money. A compelling argument,
[02:41:05.040 --> 02:41:09.360]  particularly in central bank circles, banks are well aware that their interest rate policies
[02:41:09.920 --> 02:41:14.800]  coupled with ongoing debt monetization lead to planned currency devaluation.
[02:41:15.760 --> 02:41:21.840]  Worldwide, there's about 216,000 tons of gold and that's it. That would make a, if you put it
[02:41:21.840 --> 02:41:29.680]  all together, it'd be a cube that is about 22 meters on each side. Central banks are seeing
[02:41:29.680 --> 02:41:35.120]  that their own crisis come up. It was again the central banks who are pushing gold prices higher
[02:41:35.120 --> 02:41:41.600]  this last year. Polish, Chinese, and Turkish central banks stand out. Combined, central banks
[02:41:41.600 --> 02:41:48.240]  are expected to add roughly a thousand tons of gold this year, well above the long-term average
[02:41:48.240 --> 02:41:55.200]  of 400 to 500 tons, which tells you again, danger is imminent. You know, what we're seeing here
[02:41:55.920 --> 02:42:03.360]  is massive debt accumulated by all these different governments. And then you also see the fact that
[02:42:05.840 --> 02:42:11.440]  they are changing the financial system. It's completely being restructured to something
[02:42:11.440 --> 02:42:16.320]  kicked off and accelerated in a big way under Biden with sanctions against Russia.
[02:42:16.880 --> 02:42:25.840]  And as everybody saw, the international system for settling payments, SWIFT, was captive to the US
[02:42:25.840 --> 02:42:32.640]  that could use that to steal money from anybody. So trust in the entire system has been eviscerated.
[02:42:32.640 --> 02:42:36.320]  Everybody is looking for trust. How do you get people to trust you? Well, you've got a massive
[02:42:37.120 --> 02:42:42.880]  stack of gold to back up whatever new financial system that you want to put in place. That's how
[02:42:42.880 --> 02:42:49.440]  they're all looking at this stuff. So as if more proof were needed that a storm might hit capital
[02:42:49.440 --> 02:42:54.720]  markets, Italy, one of Eurozone's three pillars, has gone on the offensive. The country is working
[02:42:54.720 --> 02:43:02.160]  to legally transfer gold stored at the Italian central bank to state ownership. They say in this
[02:43:02.160 --> 02:43:08.240]  article from Zero Hedge, they believe it's because Georgia Maloney, who's the prime minister,
[02:43:08.880 --> 02:43:12.000]  is worried that the European central bank might confiscate Italy's gold.
[02:43:12.880 --> 02:43:16.880]  So we're going to take it out of the Italian central bank and we're going to make it state property.
[02:43:18.400 --> 02:43:23.680]  How far has the trust crisis in capital markets gone if it's gotten to this point?
[02:43:24.560 --> 02:43:31.360]  The new year may soon give us a clearer answer to this question. Again, just like we saw a year ago.
[02:43:32.640 --> 02:43:39.280]  Same fundamentals, but even worse than they were the year before. And then you can add to it Trump
[02:43:39.280 --> 02:43:44.320]  trying to manipulate interest rates and the monetary supply with a new Federal Reserve
[02:43:44.320 --> 02:43:52.960]  chair that he will handpick. The US dollar was set for its biggest yearly fall since 2017.
[02:43:53.520 --> 02:43:58.400]  As investors wagered, the Federal Reserve has room to cut rates further next year.
[02:43:58.400 --> 02:44:05.440]  Even as most of it's finished with the easing, they say, but that could come back in as well.
[02:44:07.040 --> 02:44:13.520]  In a basket of currencies, the dollar index fell to a two and a half month low. I guess that's
[02:44:13.520 --> 02:44:22.240]  because our currency is a basket case. 57% of retail investors expect silver to trade above
[02:44:22.240 --> 02:44:30.400]  $100 an ounce in 2026. But there is a warning there as well. Not just that it's had a big run
[02:44:30.400 --> 02:44:34.960]  up. I mean, the big run up was long overdue as Tony had been saying for quite some time.
[02:44:34.960 --> 02:44:39.360]  Look at the ratio of gold to silver. We look at the amount of silver that's being used and a lot
[02:44:39.360 --> 02:44:44.720]  of people have made a point of talking about the Samsung battery. I haven't talked about it,
[02:44:45.360 --> 02:44:51.520]  but the Samsung has come up with a battery that instead of having a liquid, I think it's liquid
[02:44:51.520 --> 02:44:55.920]  lithium. I don't know what it is that's liquid, but the thing that makes them so flammable
[02:44:56.480 --> 02:45:04.560]  is absent. So the Samsung silver battery is basically better in every way, except it uses
[02:45:04.560 --> 02:45:11.600]  a lot of silver. It charges way faster than the existing batteries do. It's got a much longer
[02:45:11.600 --> 02:45:16.480]  range and it doesn't have the fire hazard. And I could even see this because of the fire hazard.
[02:45:16.480 --> 02:45:20.640]  I could even see this down the road being mandated by the federal government because
[02:45:20.640 --> 02:45:24.800]  they don't care if you can afford cars. They'd rather you not have a car. So I could even see
[02:45:24.800 --> 02:45:31.760]  the silver battery from Samsung, that technology being mandated. But each car would use about
[02:45:31.760 --> 02:45:38.080]  two and a quarter pounds of silver. Pounds, not ounces, pounds of silver. So it adds a lot
[02:45:38.080 --> 02:45:45.280]  to the price of a car. Now it was a small premium to pay when it first came out this summer. They
[02:45:45.280 --> 02:45:51.280]  said, well, the price of silver then add about a thousand dollars to the price of a car, but
[02:45:52.000 --> 02:45:56.880]  it would double the life of your battery. So that makes economic sense if you're going to keep the
[02:45:56.880 --> 02:46:05.120]  car. But since then, the price of silver has doubled. So when you look at that and you look
[02:46:05.120 --> 02:46:13.120]  at the potential of demand for that battery, for example, the fact that it's better in terms of
[02:46:13.120 --> 02:46:20.160]  range, fire hazard, charging time, battery life, in every regard it's superior, but it uses a lot
[02:46:20.160 --> 02:46:24.400]  of silver. So a lot of people are looking at that saying that's an even more bullish case for it
[02:46:24.400 --> 02:46:32.320]  because we've had six years of deficit for silver that we were using more of it, using it up
[02:46:33.200 --> 02:46:38.160]  in industrial uses more of it than was being mined. So for six years that's been going down.
[02:46:38.800 --> 02:46:45.840]  And so we saw a real crunch this year as India decided and some influencers they're saying
[02:46:45.840 --> 02:46:51.200]  it's part of the religious festival where they store precious metals. Don't do gold this year,
[02:46:51.200 --> 02:46:58.240]  do silver. So that created a big crunch. So that's on the positive side. On the negative side,
[02:46:58.240 --> 02:47:04.400]  I had a listener who sent this to me. I was not aware of this. And it is a climate bill that was
[02:47:04.400 --> 02:47:10.720]  passed December the 10th at 2 a.m. in the morning. This sounding kind of like the Federal Reserve
[02:47:10.720 --> 02:47:18.480]  bill, you know, where they go in and they run something through like that. It was page 1247
[02:47:19.200 --> 02:47:30.720]  of an 1,850 page climate bill. And in it was the idea that they could force you to, they could
[02:47:30.800 --> 02:47:39.920]  force a requisition of individually owned silver and platinum and palladium. And they listed several
[02:47:39.920 --> 02:47:49.920]  different key metals. Notably absent was gold because they don't want to tip off speculation
[02:47:52.240 --> 02:47:57.200]  that they're losing out to gold. So that would be a real red flag to everybody. But they can
[02:47:57.200 --> 02:48:02.320]  list every other metal that is there and they might actually do it. And so if you look at it,
[02:48:02.320 --> 02:48:07.040]  I had a listener who sent me a video report that was done by somebody going through it. It looked
[02:48:07.040 --> 02:48:17.360]  very legitimate to me. At first it seemed like it was real clickbait hyperbole. But actually,
[02:48:17.360 --> 02:48:24.960]  if you look at the bill, it's actually there. And what he was suggesting, and we'll see what
[02:48:24.960 --> 02:48:29.600]  Tony has to say, but I'm interested to see what Tony says. What's going on, Texas? It's Bluff here.

[02:49:27.840 --> 02:49:35.440]  Of course, he won't be with us this week. Thursday is New Year's Day, but he'll be coming back after
[02:49:35.440 --> 02:49:40.400]  that and we'll see what he has to say about this. There are some things that you can do to guard
[02:49:40.400 --> 02:49:46.000]  against silver confiscation. And he pointed that out in the video. He said, you know, you go back
[02:49:46.000 --> 02:49:52.880]  and look at gold confiscation. They made exceptions for collectible items. And so one of the things
[02:49:52.880 --> 02:49:58.080]  you could do is if you've got, you know, collectible coins or something, you get it registered that way.
[02:49:58.080 --> 02:50:03.760]  And now you're immune to that because they're talking about the same types of things in this
[02:50:03.760 --> 02:50:08.720]  bill. The other thing that was done, you know, if you've got it in form of, you know, bars or
[02:50:08.720 --> 02:50:15.440]  something like that, you can put it in a foreign country or you can, you know, have it fall off
[02:50:15.440 --> 02:50:22.000]  your fishing boat or something. Just try to hide it. But you are on the list pretty much anybody has
[02:50:22.000 --> 02:50:26.800]  if you bought it, because certainly if you bought it in much of a quantity, there are reporting
[02:50:26.800 --> 02:50:31.520]  requirements that are there for every kind of organization. They've got this throughout the
[02:50:31.520 --> 02:50:35.360]  financial system. Whatever you buy, they're constantly looking at what you're buying. There's
[02:50:35.360 --> 02:50:39.520]  constantly reporting of this stuff. And you can go back and find this stuff. As a matter of fact,
[02:50:40.480 --> 02:50:45.520]  one of the things that broke over the weekend was people went back and found Jeffrey Epstein's
[02:50:45.520 --> 02:50:54.080]  Amazon order list. And it was, he bought on several different occasions, young schoolgirl
[02:50:54.080 --> 02:50:58.720]  uniforms. I don't think they were for him. And Karen's first comment I thought was great. She
[02:50:58.720 --> 02:51:03.840]  said, and what sizes were they? That's the key thing we need to look at with this. We also bought
[02:51:03.840 --> 02:51:08.720]  something called a sonic prostate massager. And I was like, what in the world is that? I didn't even
[02:51:08.720 --> 02:51:13.360]  know that hedgehogs, let alone comic book hedgehogs, had prostates. So I had to look
[02:51:13.360 --> 02:51:18.640]  that one up on Amazon. But yeah, it had an interesting. So the bottom line is, is that
[02:51:18.640 --> 02:51:27.760]  whatever you buy folks, unless it's done in terms of cash and one-to-one person, they know what
[02:51:27.760 --> 02:51:34.640]  you've gotten. So the way that you can do things about your silver is that you can set up some kind
[02:51:34.640 --> 02:51:41.280]  of a sale to somebody else and pass it on to try to, you know, you can also turn it into gold.
[02:51:41.280 --> 02:51:46.080]  That's another easiest thing to do right now. But if you got it in a safety deposit box,
[02:51:47.280 --> 02:51:52.800]  if you've got it, if you bought this stuff, you know, through the banking system, they're going
[02:51:52.800 --> 02:51:57.040]  to know where it is. So the things that you can do, or you can, if it's coins, you can get it
[02:51:57.040 --> 02:52:01.280]  classified as collectible thing that probably, then that gets you out of the system. You can
[02:52:01.280 --> 02:52:06.720]  put it in a safety deposit box in some other jurisdiction like Switzerland or something.
[02:52:06.720 --> 02:52:12.640]  That's what a lot of people did in advance of FDR's order. Or you can change it over to gold
[02:52:12.640 --> 02:52:17.680]  that they're not going to come after. But 57% of retail investors expect silver to go above
[02:52:17.680 --> 02:52:24.960]  $100 an ounce in 2026. And it just started accelerating towards the end of the year.
[02:52:24.960 --> 02:52:33.040]  Already it's getting up to like $80 an ounce. Prices gained 170% this last year and counting.
[02:52:33.600 --> 02:52:39.920]  Many industry experts and a solid majority of retail traders see another standout year for
[02:52:39.920 --> 02:52:50.480]  silver in 2026. And again, Trump has had one fake emergency after another going back to COVID and
[02:52:50.480 --> 02:52:54.960]  other things. And he loves to have executive orders as well. Do you think that he wouldn't
[02:52:54.960 --> 02:52:58.880]  do something like this? What would it take? I mean, we can look at the financial system
[02:52:58.880 --> 02:53:03.360]  and the trade and the, not the trade deficit, but the actual federal government's deficit.
[02:53:04.080 --> 02:53:09.040]  And we can see the outlines of a real emergency here. You know, what would Trump do if it were
[02:53:09.040 --> 02:53:13.360]  a real emergency? He's had one fake emergency after the other. You don't think they would try
[02:53:13.360 --> 02:53:19.200]  to confiscate this stuff? So again, you know, there are some loopholes that are there.
[02:53:20.000 --> 02:53:26.960]  December the 1st saw spot silver trading at a fresh all-time high near $58.50 an ounce.
[02:53:28.080 --> 02:53:32.880]  But then it went parabolic. And by the 8th of December, from the 1st of December to the 8th,
[02:53:32.880 --> 02:53:38.560]  it had gone from $58.50 to $60 an ounce. Less than two weeks later, it was trading above $70.
[02:53:39.200 --> 02:53:45.600]  And the price momentum has only steepened since. As of December the 26th, it was trading at $79
[02:53:45.600 --> 02:53:52.240]  per ounce, 70 cents short of the $80 level. And again, I don't know where it is today. I'm not,
[02:53:52.960 --> 02:53:57.200]  I don't sit here with my ticker tape like Scrooge McDuck or whatever.
[02:53:58.000 --> 02:54:03.920]  I'm looking at this stuff in terms of long-term trends. Commodity analysts at TD Securities
[02:54:04.560 --> 02:54:10.800]  wrote in their 2026 outlook that they expected silver prices to moderate in the mid-40s during
[02:54:10.800 --> 02:54:16.800]  the year to come. They wrote, with more than 212 million ounces of silver now likely freely
[02:54:16.800 --> 02:54:23.840]  available in the London metals exchange vaults, London silver markets have already unwound a
[02:54:23.840 --> 02:54:30.320]  year's worth of drain in London inventories. Yet prices have not collapsed post-silver flood,
[02:54:30.320 --> 02:54:35.840]  they noted. Lease rates have collapsed from historic levels, but prices have not. Prices
[02:54:35.840 --> 02:54:41.200]  have only traded violently near all-time highs, clashing with a statistically significant
[02:54:41.200 --> 02:54:46.720]  relationship between commodity volume and inventories. And I don't think that's going
[02:54:46.720 --> 02:54:54.400]  to change. BMO Capital Markets said the official 2026 outlook was the bank sees silver prices
[02:54:54.960 --> 02:55:00.960]  averaging around $60 an ounce in the fourth quarter of 2026, which they expect will represent the high
[02:55:00.960 --> 02:55:09.520]  for the year, but it's already at 80. BMO sees silver prices averaging $56 an ounce for the year
[02:55:09.520 --> 02:55:15.200]  as a whole. Analysts said that while they believe gold's multi-year rally can continue in 2026,
[02:55:15.920 --> 02:55:22.480]  we have turned more cautious on other precious metals like silver and platinum in comparison,
[02:55:23.200 --> 02:55:26.400]  showing signs of being overbought in recent weeks, they said. Well,
[02:55:27.040 --> 02:55:35.760]  who knows? I don't try to predict the prices, and I'm not following these things on a day-to-day
[02:55:35.760 --> 02:55:41.120]  basis. I'm not a day trader in commodities or whatever. I just know what the fundamentals are.
[02:55:41.680 --> 02:55:47.120]  And the fundamentals for silver are excellent, with the caveat that if they get too good,
[02:55:47.120 --> 02:55:52.480]  the government might steal it, because after all, we do have in Washington a kleptocracy.
[02:55:52.560 --> 02:55:56.480]  They'll steal oil tankers, they'll steal your personal car, your home, anything. They don't
[02:55:56.480 --> 02:56:03.120]  care. No due process, no constitution. But again, there is that loophole about gold,
[02:56:04.000 --> 02:56:09.360]  because they don't want to raise the red flags. Everybody remembers the gold confiscation, so they
[02:56:09.920 --> 02:56:14.240]  back off of that for the moment. Let's get the comments, Travis, before we take a break.
[02:56:14.960 --> 02:56:18.960]  Roger that. We have Clint, 1968. He says,
[02:56:18.960 --> 02:56:22.240]  Forget China and Russia. It's the American people that are their enemy. They want us all
[02:56:22.240 --> 02:56:26.880]  dead or turned into the Borg-like machines. That's right. Our biggest enemy is not some
[02:56:26.880 --> 02:56:33.120]  foreign government, our biggest enemy, as Pogo has said. We has met the enemy, and they is us.
[02:56:33.680 --> 02:56:38.160]  They is the U.S. government, us, that us, right? I agree.
[02:56:39.520 --> 02:56:43.920]  Hathkar, 61, says, I'll miss the music played during the breaks, especially the one that ends
[02:56:43.920 --> 02:56:47.200]  with your adopted daughter. Up to you, but once in a while during the year would be nice to hear
[02:56:47.200 --> 02:56:51.920]  this beautiful music. Bless you. Thank you. Maybe we'll do that. I'm going to try to get
[02:56:51.920 --> 02:56:58.880]  some more songs in. It's been really difficult for me to get music done since I had the stroke,
[02:56:58.880 --> 02:57:03.760]  but I'm going to try to get some more tunes on a regular basis in the show. Yes.
[02:57:03.760 --> 02:57:07.440]  We have Nmax says, I don't think Bongino left because of conscience.
[02:57:08.320 --> 02:57:12.240]  They were losing many voices in social media and probably needed to plant some out there.
[02:57:12.880 --> 02:57:18.240]  Yeah. Well, I think he also wants to get off of this sinking ship. There's a lot of questions
[02:57:18.240 --> 02:57:23.600]  that are going to be asked, and he may still be in the hot seat somehow, but I think he's going
[02:57:23.600 --> 02:57:27.920]  to be able to dodge a lot of this stuff, the heat that's coming down, the pipeline from the
[02:57:27.920 --> 02:57:32.880]  subsea and stuff. It just keeps building. I don't think that this is a distraction either, folks.
[02:57:32.880 --> 02:57:39.680]  This is a definition of character, the character of the Democrats and the Republicans and of our
[02:57:39.680 --> 02:57:44.080]  government in general. That's why this is important, and it's also important because
[02:57:44.080 --> 02:57:49.040]  of who you're not allowed to talk about, and that is the intelligence agencies that were allied
[02:57:49.040 --> 02:57:54.960]  with Jeffrey Epstein. These are the scumbags and the lowlifes that are constantly running
[02:57:54.960 --> 02:58:03.360]  these honeypots for blackmail of people. That's the real issue that needs to be looked at, yes.
[02:58:04.000 --> 02:58:10.880]  Yes. I was thinking maybe they got too afraid of his Kung Fu prowess. They couldn't risk having
[02:58:10.880 --> 02:58:16.480]  him that close. He was a liability. Yeah, that's right. Might just snap and take them all out.
[02:58:16.480 --> 02:58:21.680]  Jason Barker. Of course, Jason Barker is part of Knights of the Storm. You can find their schedule
[02:58:21.680 --> 02:58:26.640]  and our schedule and Tony's schedule, many schedules, including Gard Goldsmiths on
[02:58:26.640 --> 02:58:31.680]  their website, Knightsofthestorm.com. He says, I would never register my medals. That just lets
[02:58:31.680 --> 02:58:38.480]  them know you have them. Yeah, but the problem is they get registered when they fill out reports
[02:58:38.480 --> 02:58:43.600]  and things like that, when you make financial transactions in the banking system. What we're
[02:58:43.600 --> 02:58:47.920]  talking about in terms of getting them graded, that's kind of like my understanding. I've never
[02:58:47.920 --> 02:58:51.520]  done it, but my understanding, that'd be kind of like something to do with comic books. We looked
[02:58:51.520 --> 02:58:56.720]  at that once because I've got a lot of comic books from the early 60s when I was a kid,
[02:58:57.360 --> 02:59:07.760]  and it's hard to learn to read. Anyway, you can take an old comic book like that and you can take
[02:59:07.760 --> 02:59:14.560]  it to one of these services and they will grade it and seal it, which makes it something that is
[02:59:14.560 --> 02:59:18.720]  tradable. That's what we're talking about with the numismatic stuff. What they're saying is,
[02:59:18.720 --> 02:59:25.120]  if it's a collector coin, then they don't consider it as gold that can be confiscated. That was a
[02:59:25.120 --> 02:59:30.880]  loophole during the FDR confiscation, and so it'd be a loophole with a silver confiscation as well.
[02:59:31.840 --> 02:59:36.480]  Just don't trust government. That's the key thing. We're going to take a quick break, folks,
[02:59:36.480 --> 02:59:38.480]  and we'll be right back.
[03:02:25.120 --> 03:02:42.400]  You're listening to The David Knight Show.

[03:03:44.080 --> 03:03:50.480]  Well, Politico has claimed that the far right has stolen Christmas by daring to call it Christian.
[03:03:52.800 --> 03:03:58.880]  You know, that's basically what they're saying. Saying that people are using it to talk about
[03:03:59.440 --> 03:04:04.880]  the Christian origins of our society, to push the idea that our country needs to be organized
[03:04:04.880 --> 03:04:12.240]  around Christian principles. Well, that's great. Just don't miss the Christ in Christmas, and the
[03:04:12.320 --> 03:04:20.880]  Christ in our culture. That's the key issue there. And so they make this again about left and right,
[03:04:21.600 --> 03:04:27.120]  and yet it's about much more than that, isn't it? You know, when you look at this, and of course
[03:04:27.120 --> 03:04:31.200]  people are going to use it for their own benefit, a lot of people use Christmas as an opportunity
[03:04:31.200 --> 03:04:37.600]  to make money. That doesn't change, and of course, you know, we don't want to, one of the key things
[03:04:37.600 --> 03:04:44.880]  I always wanted to make sure that we didn't do in our family was to, you know, lay down false
[03:04:44.880 --> 03:04:48.640]  details and then say, and I'm sticking to that, you know, and one of those false details that's
[03:04:48.640 --> 03:04:54.480]  been put in, you know, we talk about things like, you know, whether there was, you know, three kings
[03:04:54.480 --> 03:05:00.400]  or was it a group of wise men or whatever, you know, it's different things like that. So we don't nail
[03:05:00.400 --> 03:05:06.080]  down those details and add to it, you know, giving them names and things like that that are not in
[03:05:06.080 --> 03:05:12.240]  the Bible. Instead, what we want to do is we want to focus on the central theme that is clear,
[03:05:12.800 --> 03:05:18.240]  that is the incarnation of Christ, that is, and the purpose of it. And so with that, we celebrate
[03:05:18.240 --> 03:05:24.720]  Christmas and, you know, we understand that people will add, you know, baggage to it like politicians
[03:05:24.720 --> 03:05:29.920]  are doing, you know, and you have people who want to use it for their brand of Christian nationalism,
[03:05:29.920 --> 03:05:37.280]  we have people who try to use it for commercial purposes. You know, we just look at it and say,
[03:05:37.280 --> 03:05:43.040]  well, we want to not have a situation where it is purged out. It's a very important story
[03:05:43.040 --> 03:05:47.520]  that's at the center of it. And that's what we don't want to lose is the center of it.
[03:05:47.520 --> 03:05:54.080]  So Politico says, and your far right parties are claiming the festive season as their own,
[03:05:54.800 --> 03:05:58.080]  recasting Christmas as a marker of Christian civilization
[03:05:59.440 --> 03:06:02.720]  that is under threat, positioning themselves as the last line of defense
[03:06:03.280 --> 03:06:09.680]  against a supposedly hostile, secular left. Well, of course, there is a situation in Syria where
[03:06:09.680 --> 03:06:17.040]  they were, the government there that Trump was honoring, was going around and destroying
[03:06:17.040 --> 03:06:23.120]  Christmas trees, they saw them as a threat to them. So there is that, and those types of people are
[03:06:23.120 --> 03:06:31.040]  being brought in to Europe, attacks on Christmas markets and so forth. It is very much a part
[03:06:31.680 --> 03:06:38.400]  of the season, as one person said. So how is it that, you know, if I sing Christmas carols and
[03:06:38.400 --> 03:06:43.920]  put up Christmas trees, how is that a threat to you? That is because we don't have any tolerance
[03:06:44.480 --> 03:06:50.720]  anymore. Tim Keller, who died this year, said, wrote a piece that was republished,
[03:06:51.040 --> 03:06:56.560]  Why Christmas Matters, because it isn't about politics, it's not about social media ratioing.
[03:06:57.120 --> 03:07:01.840]  As I pointed out, Politico got really ratioed when they made that ridiculous statement,
[03:07:01.840 --> 03:07:07.360]  but it isn't about any of that stuff. Tim Keller said, Christmas is not just a moral paradigm,
[03:07:08.800 --> 03:07:14.560]  but an historical event that offers a personal relationship with God, an invitation to know
[03:07:14.560 --> 03:07:20.000]  Christ personally, and to draw near to God. He points out, Hark the Herald Angels Sing,
[03:07:20.560 --> 03:07:28.560]  he says, as we, the lyrics in that, Veiled in flesh, the Godhead see, hail the incarnate deity.
[03:07:29.200 --> 03:07:33.680]  He said, Incarnation, if you understand that word, you'll understand what Christmas is about.
[03:07:34.480 --> 03:07:38.880]  It is frankly doctrinal, he said. The invisible has become visible, the
[03:07:38.960 --> 03:07:42.800]  incorporeal has become corporeal. In other words, God has become human.
[03:07:44.160 --> 03:07:47.120]  This is not only a specific doctrine, but it is also unique.
[03:07:49.200 --> 03:07:53.040]  On the one hand, you've got religions that say that God is so imminent in all things
[03:07:53.760 --> 03:07:59.840]  that incarnation is normal. That would be if you're Buddhist or Hindu. But on the other hand,
[03:08:00.400 --> 03:08:04.960]  religions like Islam and Judaism say that God is so transcendent over all things that
[03:08:04.960 --> 03:08:11.200]  incarnation is impossible. Christianity is different. It doesn't say incarnation is normal,
[03:08:11.760 --> 03:08:18.240]  but it doesn't say that it is impossible. It says that God is so imminent that it is possible. But
[03:08:18.240 --> 03:08:24.640]  he is so transcendent that the incarnation of God and the person of Jesus Christ is history-altering,
[03:08:25.280 --> 03:08:31.680]  life-transforming, paradigm-shattering event. Christmas is not just frankly doctrinal.
[03:08:32.160 --> 03:08:36.240]  It is boldly historical. The manger of the resurrection, the story of Jesus,
[03:08:36.800 --> 03:08:44.960]  isn't just a story. It's true, and it is historical, and there's many historical markers in it.
[03:08:44.960 --> 03:08:50.080]  The point of Christmas is that Jesus Christ really lived, that he really died, that happened in
[03:08:50.080 --> 03:08:55.440]  history, and that he said these things. And so you might think, what is the big deal?
[03:08:55.440 --> 03:09:01.200]  Doctrine doesn't matter. What matters is if you're a good person. Well, the irony of it
[03:09:01.200 --> 03:09:06.480]  is that that is a doctrine, a doctrine of justification by works. What they're saying is
[03:09:06.480 --> 03:09:12.880]  it doesn't matter that Jesus actually lived the life we should have lived, and he died the death
[03:09:12.880 --> 03:09:18.640]  that we should have died. All that matters is that we follow his teaching. This is a doctrine that
[03:09:18.640 --> 03:09:25.280]  says, I'm not so bad. I need someone to come and be good for me. I can be good. I'm not so cut off
[03:09:25.280 --> 03:09:31.440]  from God, and God is not so holy that there has to be punishment for sin. The gospel is not that
[03:09:31.440 --> 03:09:37.760]  Jesus Christ comes to earth, tells us how to live, and that we live a good life, and then God owes
[03:09:37.760 --> 03:09:42.640]  us a blessing. The gospel is that Jesus Christ came to earth, lived the life we should have lived,
[03:09:44.720 --> 03:09:48.880]  and he died the death that we should have died, so that when we believe in him,
[03:09:48.880 --> 03:09:54.240]  we live a life of grateful joy. That's what Christmas is about.
[03:09:56.080 --> 03:10:00.720]  So, if these things didn't happen, if they're just parables, then what you're saying is,
[03:10:00.720 --> 03:10:04.000]  if you try hard enough, God will accept you. You know, that's kind of the message
[03:10:04.640 --> 03:10:10.560]  of Charles Dickens' Christmas Carol, isn't it? Well, if Jesus didn't come, the story of Christmas
[03:10:10.560 --> 03:10:16.800]  is one more moral paradigm to crush you. If Jesus didn't come, I wouldn't want to be anywhere around
[03:10:16.800 --> 03:10:21.280]  these Christmas stories that say that we need to be sacrificing, that we need to be humble,
[03:10:21.280 --> 03:10:26.400]  that we need to be loving, you know, the Dickens approach. All that will do is crush you into the
[03:10:26.400 --> 03:10:33.040]  ground, because if it isn't true that John saw him, heard him, felt him, that Jesus really came to do
[03:10:33.040 --> 03:10:38.560]  these things, then Christmas would be depressing. If Jesus Christ is actually God come in the flesh,
[03:10:38.560 --> 03:10:44.480]  though, you're going to know much more about God. You see him weep, you see him upset,
[03:10:44.480 --> 03:10:48.640]  you see him cast down, you see him exalted.
[03:10:53.760 --> 03:10:57.360]  And that's what we've always tried to focus on with Christmas.
[03:10:57.360 --> 03:10:58.240]  That's right.
[03:10:58.240 --> 03:11:02.320]  It's never been about how much stuff you get or all the toys.
[03:11:04.480 --> 03:11:06.320]  It's been about Christ.
[03:11:07.600 --> 03:11:11.920]  Our understanding will be a lot more personal and specific if we look at it, and so it is an
[03:11:11.920 --> 03:11:17.520]  opportunity for us to think about, as he just pointed out, the incarnation and all that entails,
[03:11:17.520 --> 03:11:23.760]  and why that is necessary, you know. What does a Muslim do with their sin? What does a Jewish
[03:11:23.760 --> 03:11:28.560]  person do with their sin? The temple is gone. There hasn't been any sacrifice for that.
[03:11:29.600 --> 03:11:36.800]  Christ is a sacrifice. The temple was a picture of him, just as a tabernacle was.
[03:11:37.760 --> 03:11:42.560]  Look at what God has done to get you to know him personally. If his son would do all this to become
[03:11:42.560 --> 03:11:47.360]  a real person, don't you think the Holy Spirit will do anything in his power to make Jesus a real
[03:11:47.360 --> 03:11:50.960]  person to you? So Christmas is an invitation.
[03:11:56.400 --> 03:12:03.120]  We look at what is happening in Texas. 600 private schools have applied for a new Texas
[03:12:03.200 --> 03:12:10.080]  Education Savings Account program. Be very careful of this. They even have one for
[03:12:10.080 --> 03:12:16.240]  homeschoolers as well. Be very careful. As I've said to people, and so many people don't understand
[03:12:16.880 --> 03:12:20.960]  that this is how the government uses money, especially the federal government,
[03:12:21.600 --> 03:12:27.600]  to control you. This is the whole mechanism of the 2020 COVID stuff. The government used,
[03:12:27.840 --> 03:12:31.440]  Trump administration used money to bribe and to blackmail people.
[03:12:32.320 --> 03:12:36.160]  You do this and we'll give you bonuses in the hospitals if you kill people with this stuff.
[03:12:37.280 --> 03:12:45.360]  On and on, telling the corporations that if you don't get all your people vaccinated, we're going
[03:12:45.360 --> 03:12:51.040]  to kill your government contracts. So they want to get you addicted to government cash.
[03:12:52.000 --> 03:12:59.840]  And at first, any of these helping hands from the government, again, the most dangerous words,
[03:12:59.840 --> 03:13:03.440]  Reagan got that right, or I'm from the government and I'm here to help you. I'm going to help you
[03:13:03.440 --> 03:13:07.840]  educate your child. Here's some money. That's going to have some strings attached to it. Maybe
[03:13:07.840 --> 03:13:12.960]  not right away, but it'll be down the road. So just be very careful about that. I'm very suspicious
[03:13:13.520 --> 03:13:20.240]  about conservatives handing out cash to get you hooked on education. So they're providing grants
[03:13:20.240 --> 03:13:27.760]  of about $10,000 to roughly 100,000 students through a pilot program in Texas. And they're
[03:13:27.760 --> 03:13:34.080]  going to be focusing on economic thresholds with low income families, but they think that they're
[03:13:34.080 --> 03:13:38.880]  going to have so many people apply that they'll have to have a lottery. So most of this, the
[03:13:38.880 --> 03:13:49.040]  $10,000 is going to be for a private school. And that is 85% of the statewide average that they spend
[03:13:49.040 --> 03:13:55.280]  on state and local funding for government schools. And so it's kind of interesting.
[03:13:55.280 --> 03:14:03.600]  The government schools, they spend on average $12,300. The private schools then will get $10,400,
[03:14:03.600 --> 03:14:12.560]  85% of the government schools. For the homeschoolers, $2,000. That's 17%, one-sixth of
[03:14:12.560 --> 03:14:18.320]  what the government schools get. So just understand that even with that $2,000,
[03:14:18.400 --> 03:14:22.560]  they can attach all kinds of strings to it. You'd be very, very careful of it.
[03:14:23.680 --> 03:14:28.480]  After thousands of years, and I've seen this now on several different secular sites. After
[03:14:28.480 --> 03:14:33.360]  thousands of years, archaeologists think that they finally found Noah's Ark. And this is a site that
[03:14:33.360 --> 03:14:38.880]  they've been talking about for decades. What's gotten them really excited is that they have found
[03:14:38.880 --> 03:14:45.040]  that it isn't just kind of a geological formation there in the shape of a boat
[03:14:45.600 --> 03:14:50.880]  that maybe is petrified wood or whatever. But as they're looking at the area, they're finding all
[03:14:50.880 --> 03:14:55.200]  these pottery fragments that would say that humans were there. So they're very excited about this.
[03:14:55.200 --> 03:15:01.840]  You know, I had a pastor once who said, if they went out tomorrow and they found Noah's Ark,
[03:15:02.480 --> 03:15:07.680]  you'd still have people who would not believe in any of this stuff. They'd find some other
[03:15:07.680 --> 03:15:11.760]  explanation for it. And of course, that's true. You know, we see that with DNA, don't we?
[03:15:12.560 --> 03:15:17.200]  You see that with intelligent design, all the microbiology. And we see it with things like
[03:15:17.200 --> 03:15:22.560]  the Shroud of Turin. You know, they'll push back on it or they'll find some reason. But, you know,
[03:15:23.360 --> 03:15:28.800]  any of these things, it really kind of goes back to what we're talking about with the Dickens story.
[03:15:29.520 --> 03:15:36.000]  And contrasting that with Christ talking about Lazarus and the rich man. And the rich man saying,
[03:15:36.000 --> 03:15:39.840]  please let me go back and warn my relatives. I don't want them to suffer this fate.
[03:15:40.640 --> 03:15:45.280]  And he's told, he said, well, they've got Moses and the prophets that they won't listen to them.
[03:15:45.920 --> 03:15:48.640]  They won't listen to somebody who comes back from the dead. And if they won't listen to
[03:15:48.640 --> 03:15:53.840]  Moses and the prophets, they're not going to listen to somebody, some archaeological nerd
[03:15:54.560 --> 03:15:59.280]  who has short pants, he or she, and the short pants and their shovel are going to tell me,
[03:15:59.280 --> 03:16:03.920]  we found Noah's Ark. They're not going to listen to that either. So it's really not about that.
[03:16:04.320 --> 03:16:09.920]  Certainly we find interesting archaeological things that back the Bible up. You know,
[03:16:09.920 --> 03:16:16.320]  for the longest time, the criticism against the Bible in the early 1800s was all archaeological.
[03:16:16.320 --> 03:16:19.040]  Well, there's no evidence that any of these civilizations ever existed.
[03:16:19.760 --> 03:16:23.040]  There's no indication that there was ever a Hittite civilization. Now,
[03:16:23.040 --> 03:16:29.680]  it's one of the best known civilizations after archaeology. And we see that, saw that,
[03:16:30.320 --> 03:16:33.760]  take the kids to the British Museum. We're just looking at some movies that we got transferred.
[03:16:34.560 --> 03:16:41.360]  And looked at that as we saw all the different things that were the antiquities. It was just
[03:16:41.360 --> 03:16:51.360]  like seeing the Bible spread out in real, real format there. So it is a very interesting thing.
[03:16:51.360 --> 03:16:55.680]  It'd be interesting to see what happens with this. But again, you've got the Bible, folks.
[03:16:56.320 --> 03:16:58.080]  Read it. Have a good day.
[03:17:08.720 --> 03:17:09.520]  The Common Man.
[03:17:12.800 --> 03:17:17.760]  They created Common Core to dumb down our children. They created Common Pass to track
[03:17:17.760 --> 03:17:23.040]  and control us. Their commons project to make sure the commoners own nothing.
[03:17:23.920 --> 03:17:30.640]  And the communist future. They see the common man as simple, unsophisticated, ordinary.
[03:17:31.600 --> 03:17:36.080]  But each of us has worth and dignity created in the image of God.
[03:17:38.240 --> 03:17:41.920]  That is what we have in common. That is what they want to take away.
[03:17:42.720 --> 03:17:48.800]  Their most powerful weapons are isolation, deception, intimidation. They desire to know
[03:17:48.800 --> 03:17:55.920]  everything about us while they hide everything from us. It's time to turn that around and expose
