And of course if you go to Trends Journal dot com you can save ten percent on a subscription if you use a code night. It's an amazing publication. He now used to do it on a I think a quarterly basis or something monthly, and now it's on a weekly basis.
He's got like three hundred pages worth of articles. It's in a magazine format online and so it is an always head of the trends, and we're going to talk about some of the trends that he had picked this year and how they are at the very top. Unfortunately, one of those trends has been war and that has brought itself to the forefront. Thank you for joining us, Jerald, Thank you for having me. And again it's only two dollars and fifty cents a week for the magazine, and you know the facts that
they are one of our top trends. This year was a golden year for gold. Yeah, nobody in the world said this is a golden year here for gold, and gold prices are up now three hundred and forty dollars more than when we made this forecast on January second of this year. That's right, yeah, big big jump and bigger than the stock market and any anything else. Actually, and this is just the beginning, by the way. And when I say when they subscribe through night, it costs them the grand
total of two dollars and fifty cents a week. This is the Wall Street Journal, five dollars a day. You see that important story in the top tippy on their tippy toes. Ballerina is hit the tip top five dollars for this crap. Yeah yeah, Then you go to the toilet paper record they call themselves the paper Record in New York slime. You see this story about this poor guy lost his arm over there Ukraine. They don't show pictures of
the little Palestinian children blown to pieces. Now they don't count. This is the propaganda that you're getting the meat from the media. We're giving the people everything that they can get just to show you the I mean, the arrogance and stupidity. This is the business section of the New York Times Sunday. Six dollars. That is the business section of this stupid picture that used to be one time, it used to be all articles Yeah, a showman for
the age of combative spectacles. Donald White, a violent sports boss, has a mass considerable cloud one page after another about this stupid crap. Yeah, hey, six dollars a day to get this. People are getting no news. They're just getting up it worthless junk. That's right, that's right. And again this is the it shows you the propaganda, right, this is today's toilet paper record. Columbia called in law enforcement Thursday to empty and encampment
of pro Palestinian protesters. How about anti war protesters? Mm hmm, No, No, you're pro Palestinian if you are against Israel's jenocide. That's how they sell the propaganda and hate. It's always Palestinian. It has to do with anti genocide. Yeah, as always about the labels, as I said earlier, you know, you're not pro life, you are anti abortion rights. You know that type of thing. They always pick the labels, don't they. Yep, that's the that's the key thing. That is the high
ground, you know. And we just had Trump explaining how Gettysburg worked. You know, don't fight up the hill. Me boys, don't fight up the hill. Well, we don't want to use their labels because if we use our labels. They're going to be fighting up the helm me boys. So he actually said that. But it is it is comical what they do, except that it is a total distraction, isn't it. Yeah again,
total distraction. One of our top trends, give you an example, is it's going to be a banking bust like we've never seen in history of the world. Part one of part two, going back again. Tracking trends is the understanding of where we are and how we got here to see where we're going. So you go back to the COVID war, go back into your house. You can't go to Wike. So now people staying at home day after day, week after week, month after month, year after year,
and they're saying, I'm not going back. I'm getting up at five o'clock, five thirty in the morning to commute an hour and a half. I hated I hated driving, I hated gunness. I'm not doing that anymore. It cost from you all this money. All right, stay home. I'm the guy that has likes say, ten floors, I got all these people in little cubicles. Yeah, I don't need I don't see anyway. Stay home now, your office vacant sy rate. Vacant sy rate in San Francisco
is over thirty percent. In New York City vacant nobody in the buildings twenty three percent, Portland, Oregon twenty nine percent. One after another. All right, how are you going to pay your debt on your mortgage that's come and do four trillion dollars worth of commercial real estate that's coming in the next two and a half years. Wow, four trillion dollars. They're not going to pay this stuff. The banks are going to go bust. I'm going
to give you an example of how the mainstream media. This is from Reuters Wednesday. US regional banks see booking more commercial property losses and loan sales. They go on to say that scrutinya regional banks has increased after Silicon Valley bank collapse. Blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah. Then they go on to say again that at the end of the article, there's a much more
dramatic drop in values than with the market in twenty twenty three. They said, analysts, however, you're ready, do not expect turmoil for the banking sectors. Sector's exposure to commercial real estate right here. It won't be a problem at all at the end. Yeah, nothing to worry about, nothing to worry about, don't worry if everything's fine. Yeah, of course it will be all fine for the big guys. They're going to be bailed out
as usual with all the rest of this stuff. But this kind of economic chaos that's going to run through and even when they locked everybody down and said, you know, stay home, work from home, or you know, we'll just send you a government check and that type of thing, getting people used to being at home, isolated, don't travel, you're not going to
go anywhere. You're going to get help from the government if they Any and every one of these financial problems that they create is going to be used as a way to push us into universal basic income, to a CBDC, to a government ID, so that as a pressure relief. All of those things are going to be pushing us toward that, aren't they. We're going to see that accelerated. It's not going to make any difference because we're going to be annihilated in nuclear war. Yeah, And people don't get it. It's
right in front of everybody's eyes. We have demonic people running the world and as we warned again, you go back to your trends journal January. Excuse me, February twenty second, twenty two days before Russia and the Ukraine War started, we said that Ukraine should negotiate for peace. It went from Covid
War to Ukraine War to World War. If this continues, and we've been warning that as Ukraine loses, which we said they were going to lose in the beginning, they're going to use a major false flag event, attack a nuclear power plant or something else to get support from the United States and NATO. They've already attacked a nuclear power plant last week, and they're going to keep escalating it. And then the Israel War. Look what's going on.
We've been warning about this, all righty, ready for this big story. Yesterday Bank of America oil prices could hit one hundred and thirty dollars a barrel this year. Yes, I saw that. Yeah, you saw that. Go back to your trends journal. We use we week after week after week since January, and again the videos are there. It's in your trends journal. We said oil prices Brett Cricket hit one hundred and thirty dollars a barrel. We've been saving this now for four months. Bank of America said it
yesterday. It was big news. Isn't that frustrating? Get no respect, no field. I'm a little guinea from the Bronx. So you know, hey, what do I know? I only have best selling books, trends that trend tracking far better than Mega trends, Time Magazine trend tracking, international bestseller. What the hell do I know? I'm been writing the Trends Journal since nineteen ninety one and Manata since nineteen four, nineteen eighty and only call
things like, oh, here's your trends journal dot com bust? When's that fall of nineteen ninety nine? We said it happened by the second quarter of two thousand. So going back to this, what's going on now with oil? And why what you're saying about? You know, none of that's going to make a difference. World War three has begun. We have evil, demonic people in charge. They're only interested in themselves, the narcissistic, sociopathic
evil people. Yeah, oh yeah, I've been talking about Johnson this week. I call him Machiavellian Mike. Now, since see that little speech that he gave, I'm a wartime speaker. Literally, he said, that's how he sees himself. Now he is a wartime speaker, he's wartime concierge, you know, or whatever. But he's you know, this is a war. This is a literal war, and so we have to do this. It's amazing to watch how this guy has just rapidly evolved to push any and
every war and to completely forget about the border. For example, even though if they were worried at all about the election, you would think they would at least try to pretend that they cared, right, That's so I said earlier, Gerald, It amazes me that here in election year they will ignore the border, which by more than two and a half to one people are concerned about versus Ukraine. Right, so it completely ignores it. He could easily, since I don't care about the deficit. What's the big deal,
you know, put one hundred million at the border or whatever. It isn't going to make The stuff that they were going to do was just window dressing. Anyway, they could throw money at it and say, look, we're doing something. But that's the contempt that they have for the American people and for the election. Even I think that they're looking at this and saying, well, it's sorry, we've already decided who's going to win, and we
don't really even care what the voters think anymore. That's what it looks like to me. They don't even pretend, well, again, it's not going to make When all else fails, they take you to walk. Yeah, that's right. People keep asking me on interviews, you know, who do I see winning the election? I see you can't call it, and I've been at this, you know, a lot of years. Or you go back to the trends Joeral Magazine. We call Trump a winner in May of
two thy and sixteen, when everybody said he was going to lose. There's a whole different game going on right now. Yeah. They're going to do anything they can to stay in power. And when you go to war, the people support the president that's running the show. Again. All you had to do is go back to two thousand and one, when little Georgie Bush just got into office. We were in a deep recession, the dot com
bust happened, and then nine to eleven happens. What happens, We're going to get that guy who's salad bin laden dead or alive, a little boy of nothing, a little daddy's boy. Eighty eight percent of the people swallowed the craps bewing out of the mouth of that clown boy. Yeah. Well, you know, even when you look at what Johnson is doing, I mean he's even Politico is saying, you know what, how did Biden and Johnson lock arms on all this stuff? And of course Trump is just staying
off the side just to see which way the wind is boing. But you're right, they're going to go with, you know, take us into war, going to say, well, we're the guys who are in charge. You don't want to change horses in the middle of the stream, in the middle of a war that we just started. You know, that'd be no disqualification the fact that we're the guys who started the war, So you don't
want to change anything, just leave us there. It truly is amazing to me the arrogance that he has exhibited towards the Republican voters, toward the rest of other people in the conservative part of the Republican Party. He doesn't even try to pretend to any of this stuff, and he is completely in lockstep with everything that Biden wants to do even including not just the war stuff, but even including the massive increase in the IRS, which is another way of
going to war with the American people. It's amazing how in a short period of time he goes there. But of course he got twenty million dollars in his first quarter as speaker, so he's getting paid off handsomely. Yeah. A little clown, a little clown boy, Yeah, little boy of nothing. I would love to call these guys out, man to man, I'd love to say, you a little bestard, Who the hell do you think you are? Yeah, you're a public servant. Could you get that in
your head? You're a little nothing. You're a little nothing. That's what the people should be doing. But there's no fight. Yeah, the only thing I've seen Jade Vans and I talked about this earlier in the show jd vance Uh And there was a long article where he had an interview with Politico, and I thought it was the very even article, but he was questioning the whole idea of the American Empire. He said, you know this, this aid that we got going on right now, these these four packages like
one hundred billion dollars to Ukraine and Israel and everything. He says, that's that's one aspect of it, because we need to completely rethink this international rules based order nonsense. This is this is working out really well for a few people in Washington, but not the rest of America. The rest of us are really yeah, and this is not working for us. And so he's kind of taking on the essence of it. And so that was encouraging to see that. But again it's just just one slinder, Yeah, just one
guy doesn't mean anything. Yeah, And again going back to this this thing, the hypocrisy of going on now, of the slaughter of people in front of everybody's eyes, and it just keeps going on. They're going to escalate this rough invasion now now that they got this out of the way, well we got we retaliated against Dwan. You know, they sent that missile in
there. I suggest everybody consider doing, you know. George Galloway, he had an interview with Scott Ritter right after Iran launched the attack against Israel last week, and Ridder made this really clear because the headlines from the West were and from Israel, Israel and the West knockdown ninety nine percent of it. No, no, that's not what happened at all, and Ridder makes it really clear. And from the Israeli side, this is from the Israeli news.
It cost them to stop what Iran did one point three billion dollars. Yeah, I covered that, Yeah exactly. You competed that, you know, ten percent. It only costs Iran to do it, yeah, exactly. So a new kind of asymmetric warfare, right exactly. You know, we go in with heavy, expensive equipment and they've got cheap, improvised roadside bombs. That kind of asymmetric warfare. Well, this is a financial side of it as well, you know, and of course you know we look
at what's happening with the drones. That's another kind of asymmetric warfare that's happening in Ukraine. But but what did Ritter focus on the financial aspect of it? As the is the real issue, the financial aspect and how successful Iran was. Iran showed them Iran didn't hit any civilian targets. They did this purposely. What they did, they have the ability to wipe that out Israel
again, Scott Rider, there's nobody that I know of him. And Colonel McGregor, these are two guys that are in deep in the military side. Yeah, they know what they're talking about. Yes, And I suggest that they go to you go to Galloway and and and see this this thing, and then here, here's here's the here is the here is the hypocrisy. Brussel's eyes expansion, eyes expansion of sanctions on Iran after direct attack, US announces a fresh set of sanctions yesterday on Iran, targeting it. Wait a
minute, you're putting sanctions on Iran for attacking Israel. How about putting sanctions on Israel for attacking Iran? Why you anti Semi? Why do you h hangar? How dare you say that they're the chosen people? They could kill anybody they want, anywhere, any place, anyhow they want to do it. Those sanctions on them. Matter of fact, let's give them more money to kill more people. Yeah. Yeah. The only person that I saw
writing about this that that really got it right. Everybody was saying, well, you know, this is what is Israel going to do now they've been attacked by Ron. It's like, well, what about that first attack Ron? Paul said, you know that was a retaliation for their retaliation. Are we going to now have a retaliation for the retaliation. And as I said, it's going to be like the hat Fields and the McCoys if you keep
going down that road. Because it was initially the assassination of these two military figures and that's what kicked it off, and you know, in an embassy that was there, and that was an attack on their native soil. And so then it escalates and retaliation. So now Israel says that they want to retire against the retaliation, and then Iran promises that they will do that. So, yeah, it's going to rapidly escalate. US now getting direct,
which is what Israel and the US has always wanted. They've always wanted to go back and to go against Iran. And yet how did we get the Iatolis in charge? Well, that all began when we did a coupe back in the nineteen fifties. But nobody goes back to that either. It's just like that. They don't go back and looked and say, how did we get to this point where we had such radicalized Iran in the first place? And you know, has our policy really been working or has it been counterproductive?
And it really has been counterproductive? Blowback, No, you're one hundred percent right in what you're saying, and the people have no clue of this at all. You ready, this is my book, trend Tracking, that I wrote in nineteen eighty nine, a lot better than Mega Trend's Time magazine. You talk about what happened in about the Shaw right the Fall of the Shaw, and I say, I write about this is when I became a
political atheist and a trend forecaster. All they did was teach us, just like they teach us to hate the Russians, that they taught us to hate the Iranians when the revolution began in the late nineteen seventies, never mentioned about
the United States. So I would throw the democratically elected government, the Victimanik of Mozadeg, brought to you by the CIA and the MI six, because Mozadegg had the nerve, the goal to say no, the oil belongs to the Iranian people, It doesn't belong to Anglo Iranian oil better known today as BP or Standard Oil better known today as Exxon Mobil. I write about it, and that's how I became a trend forecaster. Exactly what you're saying,
and that's when I became a political atheist. And again so here we are. You know, as Trump said, we'll go over there and we'll take the oil. Doing the same thing in Syria, right, they don't bother with the coup. They just send in military people to occupy the oil fills and steal the oil. And then when we get shot at oh those whoever it was shot at us? Can you believe they shot at American troops in Syria? Well, what are we doing in Syria? I mean that nobody
ever talks about what are we doing in Syria? How did we illgal were illegally invaded it to steal their oil? Like I said, you think we would have been into Iraq wharf. The major export was broccoli. Yeah, yeah, exactly what we did. Look what we did in Libya, oh, withdrawing the most people had more rights in Libya under Kadaffi and benefits than anywhere in Africa and much of the world. I want that guy cardoff. Yeah. Oh, you know you have to say it properly. Uh,
Kadafi has to go, folks. Obama he was always focus on focus. Yeah, yeah, you know, we came, we saw he died, you know, as really said, Yeah, and what she saw was the fact that he was setting up a banking system in competition to the European central banks, and that had to go. It is absolutely amazing, and it
is you know, we just have to keep plugging away. I think the only thing that we can do is just keep telling the truth and pointing to this and telling people that we have to uh, stop this idea of the American Empire. We have to stop this idea that all these people over there, I think they're dangerous and so we need to take them out before they take us out. That is a prescription for unending war. That's what we've been doing since World War Two. We've been acting like the Japanese at Pearl
Harbor. That is a prescription for unending war and never having any peace. It was actually actually kind of funny, you know, in this article where they were talking to JD. Vance about the American Empire and so well this guy sounds really isolationist, and they're critic critiquing him of course, and saying, you know, well this is what he wants. I said, you know, that's exactly what George Washington wanted. You know, no entangling alliances
with anybody. We focus on putting, actually putting America first people want that, and yet they try to demonize that as if that is some kind of a bad thing. That's amazing. Who's the day, Yeah, Politico, Yeah, Politico is doing you know who's the demon? Sorry? Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. So here you mentioned you mentioned George Washington, Right, this is Farewell address. It is our true policy to steer clear of a permanent alliance with any portion of the foreign world. Screw your Washington,
fat boy. Lloyd Austin, I killed people in our rock. I killed people in Afghanistan. I'm the Secretary of Defense. My last job was with rat Deon, the largest defense contract, second largest defense contractor in America. Screw you Washington. He goes on observe good faith and justice toward all nations, cultivate peace and harmony with all the nation which indulges toward another an habitual hatred, like they've taught us, an habitual hatred about Iran and Russia,
an habitual hatred, or an habitual fondness. Oh we love Israel. Oh we they're so wonderful, And we love the most corrupt country in Europe Ukraine. Oh we love them so much. The nation which indulges toward another in habitual hatred or an habitual fondness. You're ready, is in some degree a slave. Yeah, it is a slave to its animosity or to its affection, either of which is sufficient to lead it astray from its duty and interests. Washington, they got the nerve to call you an isolationist. Yeah,
hey, that's so. What's your favorite war? You know? I the Vietnam War. I grew up there, and it was wonderful. No. I like the First Iraq War better than the Second Rock War. Oh, the Afghan War was just wonderful. We were so successful in all those wars. Yeah, of course there's tens of tens and tens of trillions of dollars to kill millions and millions of people. But great success for nothing. And they call you an isolationist, whereas this is a stupidity in front of everybody's
eyes. Well, we had Michaevelli and Mike uh played the clip earlier today. Uh he said, Uh, well, I want to send bullets so we don't have to send American boys. It's like, what nonsense is that we don't have to send either one. We mind our own business. Uh, but you want to send the bullets because the people who are writing you checks. Is what's going on here? Truly amazing. Yeah, Yeah, he's got people working for him that were lobbyists for companies in Ukraine and other
things like that. Asbrruption is just unbelievable. And yeah, he doesn't have anything at all, any concern at all for America, for America's safety or security. The national security stuff is anesthetical to Americans, America's safety and security. But it's also all across Europe we're seeing this same type of stuff. One of the top articles you got at trans Journal, Finland's new president says to NATO, less talk more war. Yep, what's going on there against
Finland? Yeah they got five point five million people? Yeah, what do you to It was a little arrogant little boy talking about Yeah you got white off the map like that. All of Europe is talking about World War Stoltenberg, Vandalien or Vandalon, whatever her name is. Again, oh toy, women were in charge bare the other clown over in Germany Hitlary Clinton who you mentioned before, Samantha Powers, Susan Rice with Condoleeza Rice, one a little
war mongering freak after another. I'm tied of this racism, sexism, crap, good in bed comes in every race, creed and color. They're ramping up World War III. That's why I said to you, We're not going to have to worry about the economic consequences of what's going to happen if we don't stop the world from going to war. That's right, that's right. But of course, you know, we do head our bets on this stuff. You know, world War three doesn't come out, we do need to.
We still have other threats that they're coming at us with. That's why the economic stuff, the forecasts about gold and other trends are still very important, aren't they. Oh again, gold prices have gone up over three hundred and fifty dollars an ounce since we made that forecast, and it's we can see gold prices hitting three thousand dollars an ounce just the beginning of it. Now here. This is important. That's what I wanted to ask you was
where do you see that? Because you called the oil price pretty spot on there with Bank of America finally caught up to it at one hundred and thirty a barrel, and so we've had people predicted three twenty seven hundred, four thousand one of them. Did I think that was UBS? I think they put four thousand. You know, what are you looking at? If the war doesn't break out and we keep going down, you know, with a threat of war as well as inflation and all the rest of these things,
weill goal prices are going to go up for three reasons. One's going to be the banking bust. You know, I'm just going to give you an example of the again, I gave you one example of how they underplay the
news. This is from the Wall Street Journal yesterday. Tech giants trim office space dealing landlords major blow at the very end of the article, right down here, San Francisco's office vacancy rate, I got it wrong before hit a record you ready, thirty six point seven percent in the first quarter according to CBRE. You know what it was before the COVID or the vacancy rate three point six percent? Wow? Wow, three point six percent vacancy in twenty
nineteen. Thirty six point two percent vacancy rate. Wow. Not a mention, not a mention in here about the bags going bust and how this is going to hit them. The amount of new office space technology the companies least fell by almost half in the fourth quarter of last year compared to twenty nineteen. Office space listed for sublease in thirty cities with a lot of technology tenants has risen to the highest levels ever. One hundred and sixty eight point four
million square feet of office space is for sublease in the first quarter. In other words, you're trying to get rid of their leases. Not a word in here of how it's going to bring down the banking system. That's number one. Number two. In the run up to the presidential reality show which they call an election, they're going to lower interest rates to keep the power and power and power our fedhead, former fedhead Janet Yellen is now the Treasury
secretary. Shows you who's running the country. They want to keep her there in power. They're going to lower interest rates to artificially boost up the economy and the run up to the election. The lower interest rates go, the deeper the dollar falls, and the dollar, by the way, the death of the dollar is coming. The lower the dollar falls, the cheaper it is for other countries to buy gold. So the higher goal prices are going
to go. Now, let's go to China. We had forecasts the twentieth century was the American century, but the twentieth century twenty first century would be the Chinese century, because the business in China is business, and the business of America has been wor That changed when China launched the COVID war on Chinese Lunar New Year, the Year of the Rat January twenty twenty. They locked down the country for three years with zero COVID policy. Now let's again,
you got to put the trends together. Slime all murderers, every time he got caught with his pants down. Bomb's the way over beg that Bill Clinton brought China into the World Trade Organization officially. They came in two weeks after nine to eleven. Was already was paying attention. You look at China's GDP before they got into the World Trade Organization. It's like this they get in book skyrockets. The country was overbuilt with a boom. Chinese real estate accounts
for over thirty percent of China's GDP. It was a boom that was going to go bust anyway, but three years of zero COVID policy made a bad situation very worse. Going back to gold, retail sales of gold in China this year increased twenty five percent so far. Central Bank of China biggest buyer gold. They know how bad it is, as do other central banks. Now, why else is gold price going up? Ukraine war, but particularly the Israel war. Israel is going to keep ramping this up. This is
just the beginning of the end. You have demonic, crazy people in charge. Who's your favorite guy? You like that guy Big Gieve, No, I like that guy Smoot Trick Now, I like Yaoh, he's just wonderfully kind and loving. Yeah, that's why gold prices are going to go up. And of course what we've seen is, you know, even as when they got worried about gold going up, really quickly pointed this out. A couple of days ago, you had about ten different people affiliated with the Federal
Reserve talking about how they were going to keep interest rates high. They weren't going to cut them. You know, we know they're going to cut it before the before the election, but they're putting out, you know, to get everybody, oh, well, they're not going to cut interest rates anymore. And they did that in order to try to take gold down. All they did was it didn't go down, but it's held its own and so
they weren't having much of an effect. They weren't having their desired effect on it, you know, by saying we're going to keep interest rates high. They were hoping to take it down. As you point out, even though it was hitting new records, you still had the Chinese Central Bank still buying more and more of it. And then what is going on with the gold ETFs. They had to cancel trade on that for a while, didn't they. Yeah, yeah, oh yep, so hi here this is from Financial
Times. I talked about the death of the dollar. Right, mass of US deficit poses quote significant risk of the world economy. One's IMF, the international mafia. That a monetary fund. Excuse me, all right, it's right here in front of everybody's eyes, the United States that's increasing one hundred trillion dollars. Excuse me, a trillion dollars every hundred days. Yeah, that's right, that's right. It is going to be a banking bug. This thing's gone. But again, when all else fails, they take it
to work. Here, rents are still rising and fueling inflation, no kidding, Oh, March arm sales they dropped because interest rates a mortgage rates are now seven point five percent. Oh but again everybody said, nearly everybody that when mortgage rates went up that the cost of housings would go down. We said, no, ain't going to happen. Housing prices is going to keep
going up, and so's inflation. See you ready, the median price of existing home sold in March three hundred and ninety three thousand dollars, up four point eight percent from a year before. Yeah, I had an article earlier this week. They were saying that doctor's on Long Island. You make three hundred fifty thousand dollars a year. It can't afford to buy a house there. It's like and this was not on you know, the part of Long
Island that's always been the Gatspises and stuff like that. This is like in Suffolk County, you know where my wife is from. So it's this is like suburban Long Island. They can't afford to buy a house there because interest rates are so high, because they've essentially shut down building, you know, put all kinds of regulations and inflated the cost of building and make it difficult for people to build. And so they've cut down on the supply of houses.
And so even though the interrant rates are sky high. The prices of houses are not going down because they've controlled the supply, and even the doctors can't buy a house. Who's going to buy a house there? It's great again, Yeah, And and it's only going to keep going and getting getting
worse. Prices are going to keep going up, yeah, because they go driving up inflation with again, you're going to see oil prices spike and all the cheap money they're going to keep trying to do to keep artificially propping up the economy so we don't Again, it's the people are suffering like we've never seen in years, and it's only going to continue to get worse for the average person as the rich keep getting richer and the robber barons, that's all
they are. I mean, when we were young guys, there were no hedge funds, private equity groups, or venture capitalists. When we were young guys, there were hardware stores, stationary stores, drug stores, and now they're all chains. And going back to the immigration that you were talking about, they want the cheap immigrant, they want the immigration for cheap labor. Again. I wrote about this in my book Trends two thousand. The whole
Internet revolution began in the early nineteen nineteen nineties. Nineteen ninety four started taking off. They had this thing called h one b vs's bring in cheap labor from China and India. They didn't want to pay the Americans. You go to any store and you see go to like a Marshall's, a Target or whatever, and you see on the front doors. Help want it? Help want it? Help want it? Help want it? Yeah, because all the people working there just nothing more than a plantation work of slave land.
It's better than the plantation system. You don't have to house them and feed them. Here's enough money. Get that hell out of you. Come back in the morning. You've got an article at a trans journal. Fast food turns to AI to cut staff, And you know, I kind of think that that's what was happening. When I covered Gavin Newsom raising minimum wage, I said, you know, I think that's really trying to push these fast
food chains. Because you had to have something like eighty locations or something in order for the increase to go from fifteen dollars an hour to twenty dollars an hour. I said, I think that is pushing these fast food chains to
start using AI. To replace people. But then we had this week, you had a a place in several different locations in New York where they were using staff in the Philippines and they had them there as virtual clerks in the store to interact with customers because they could pay them three dollars an hour in the Philippines, which was still twice what the average wage in the Philippines was at a dollar fifty an hour. So this is the way they're pulling the
stuff in, isn't it. I mean, this is a very rapidly moving and they want to do it from the bottom up. This is going to be one of their first st aps to kill us economically, I think is going to be the combination of robotics and AI. But before they do that, they'll do telecommuting with people in other countries as we've already been seeing for the longest time in terms of support people that you are coming out of India that hardly speak English and that type of thing when you call in to get
some help on something. But now they're going to start doing it in retail locations I think, and paving the way, you know, making artificially inflating the price of people there so they can create an economic case for these people to add robotics and artificial intelligence to replace humans there, and then once they do that, they'll bootstrap into other areas as well. Right, you're one hundred percent correct. Again, what about the top trends? Was ai?
We own you? And that's where it's all going. I mean, look, look what's going on. I mean you're talking about that Philip by the way, I was in the Philippines. It was heartbreaking to see the poverty there. Yeah, you know when you poverties everywhere? Yeah, for making a dollar fifteen average. Yeah, I mean he's called every well, the credit card companies. Who are you speaking to when you got a problem? Somebody from the Philippines? You know. So they're going to keep doing it.
And what you pointed out is one hundred percent right, And again we're just going to keep getting you know, this is the article. By the way, Bank of America issues one hundred thirty dollars oil one. Oh yeah, well the only four months too late, but Bank of America said it, then it must be true. So again, uh, it's going to
the average person is just going to keep getting poorer and poorer. This is again I call this plantation workers of slave Landy, that's all this has become, and that we need a new third party movement and we don't have it. Yeah, because they're all paid off by the You met that little clown boy, that little what do you call them, Machiavelli, what do you call him? A Mickey Evelli and Mike. Yeah, a little little little jerk of nothing, a little boy of nothing. Oh amazing, Hey,
what's that? Would you say? You got twenty million? Yeah, twenty million in his first full quarter as speaker. Twenty million dollars. And I was talking about how you know, when you had the two thousand election, seventy million was the total that was spent by Al Gore, one hundred million by George w And this guy gets twenty million in just one quarter. It's kind of a measure of the corruption, isn't it. Yep? But it's
also a measure of the arrogance. I just I can't get past that clip of him saying that he's the wartime speaker and so we just got to make these tough decisions. And he's going to completely ignore our border because he's a wartime speaker, no restrictions whatsoever. On the money that we're going to send other people for war, but we're not going to do anything to protect this country. It's absolutely amazing. Again they want the boarder to stay open for
cheap labor. Yeah, and I think that also. You know, when they look at this, I've talked many times about the Fourth Turning. I don't know what you think about the cyclical theory of that's put out by Strauss. And how about every eighty years everything gets restructured. They said, you know, it's usually massive economic restructuring. Usually always economic restructuring, usually war. Previous one was Great Depression, World War II, prior to that civil
war, prior to that Revolutionary war. They went back five hundred years in British history to look at that and said, well, now everybody is pretty much sinkized on all this stuff. But I said, you know, this fourth turning, it's really big fourth turning. They want to go instead of like what we had with a civil war, we had we moved from an agrarian society to an industrial society and the Industrial Revolution came in. That was a pretty big one. We had wars in a lot of different places.
Italy had a civil war eighteen sixty one to eighteen sixty five exactly at the same time that we did. That was about creating an industrialized revolution as well as a nation state. Now they want a global government and they want which means that there's going to be a global war for sure. But my question is is it also going to be a civil war. They keep pushing with that, and I think that's a good bit of why they keep letting the
borders stay open. I think they want to make sure there's going to be while there is a global war. I think they want to have a civil war as well. What do you think, again, a global war is going to be nuclear annihilation. I mean, you don't have to believe me. They asked a catch by the name of Albert ein Stein, who knew a thing or two about the atom bomb, and they asked them what kind
of weapons will be used to fight the Third World War? He said, I don't know, but they'll be using sticks and stars to fight the fourth. Yeah, I mean you know about the Samson option in Israel. Yeah, oh yeah, they lose, they go nuclear. Well, you know a lot of people, a lot of people. You know, there's going to be tremendous number of people that have go out in the initial stuff,
Another massive number of people will die from solely from radiation. Yeah, the people who are left though, as a matter of fact, and I don't know, you know, this was any jacobsondys. She's done books on DARPA, on Operation paper Clip and some other things like that. She just did a thing about nuclear war. She said she thought the most number of people would die from starvation. That even though you'd have tremendous initial casualties vaporized and
then dying from radiation, it's going to be starvation. To me. That seems to me like in that phase, that's where they want to make sure that the people who survive they're all fighting each other, as you say, with sticks and stones, you know, bringing in all these different groups that are not going to even speak the same language, uh, into the United States. That's that's what they want to do for a complete an utter takedown. I think, what do you think again? Now they're out of their
minds. They don't have a book, they don't have a final plan on this. I know, Yeah, they're out of their mind. They're nuts again, you do you're quoting a little jerky, little nothing of a clown is Mike Johnson? What plan? What plan? And again, at what time this little boy couldn't fight his way out of a paper bag? Yeah? And as I always say, everybody's got a plan until you get punched in the nose, you know. Yeah, that's the other part of the
best laid plans. Yeah, you a all uh once that once that happens, everything then resets itself, doesn't it. I got a couple of comments here, one of them from rock fan fawn see thank you for tip, says good to see Gerald on Rumble and sixty one. Thank you for tip. Thank you, Dave for another week of insight and analysis. Thank you so much. Oh and I appreciate it. Well again. You know, when we look at this, it is uh, it is a very dark
time, isn't it. But we can uh, we can not. We don't want to lose hope in a sense that please, we have to do something. Yeah, that's right. People have to do something. We have to unite for peace if we know we're going to die in war, that's right. Yeah. And if we if we lose hope, we won't do anything. And that's what they want us to do as well. So I think that we need to make sure that we understand what our goals in life
are, and we need to understand that regardless of what happens. I quote it often the fact that Martin Luther said, if I knew the world was going to end tomorrow, I'd plant a tree today. I think that's the way that we need to live our lives. I think that's why you cover
a lot of economic and global economy information there. Even though as you look at this all the cards are lined up for global war, you still look at this and say, but in case, you know, we're still going to plant the tree, and we're going to do what we can to try to fight for peace. Right. Yeah, and again you know I launched Occupied Peace and you spoke at my rallies. I could go a little a decade ago. Yes, this is an op ed piece of Biden and Wall
Street Journal. Israel Izawa's strongest partner in the Middle East. It is unthinkable that we would stand by if its defense we're weakened by a wand Israel Zawa's strongest partner in the Middle East. You mean I partner in crime? Yeah, well, I'm an American, And of course when we talk about the asymmetry of Iran using very very cheap weapons and Israel having to you know, defend itself with extremely you know, one point three billion dollars to defend itself.
That's not really a problem with them, as long as they can tap into the magic money tree that we've got here in America. Right, let's just put some more zeros on the bank account and here, you know, here's some made up fantasy currency here. Who cares about any of that stuff? That's why I say, it's so amazing to me. And it's such a tell, I think Gerald when they don't even bother to spend any money on the border, they could easily say, well, yeah, we'll spend
two hundred on the border. Who cares, right, I mean, it's it's just numbers on a machine to them. And so they could easily come in and say, we'll do two hundred on the board. How you feel good about that? Now? Now we can give a hundred billion to these other wars out there. But they don't even bother with that. They don't even bother to try to save face or to try to make themselves look good to the voters, because they don't care even to make that effort anymore.
You're right, they're crazy people. Yeah, yeah, why you ask you ask a murderer why they're a murderer, a thief, why they're a thief? A rapist, why they're a rapist? These are crazy, demonic people that are the inmates are running the asylum. That's right, that's right. Yeah. Why did they rob America? Well, that's because that's where the money is. That's what the Willie Sutton's at the bank robber. Why do you keep ribing banks? Well, because that's where the money is. That's
why they're robbing America because that's where the money is. That's where the money is manufactured. You know, that's about the only thing we manufactured anymore is a Fiat currency. Twenty six point three eight billion in military aid. That's what's going. That's they're trying to push through, which they probably will for Israel. Wow, you keep slaughtering innocent people, Yeah, as our country's
rotting in front of us. Yeah, that's right, that's right. Yeah, And we've had and I think there's going to be another aspect of it as well. I think we've been getting some shots across the bow. You alluded to one of them. In a nuclear power plant. We all, so they're actually admitting, which is very rare. I guess it's because it's not a very important asset. But they had a water system that was cyber attacked, and that might have been another warning shot across the bow, and
we can do this to your entire infrastructure. That's the key thing I think that weren't looking at this most of the time. They go to absurd links to try to persuade people that this was not a state actor that was trying to attack our infrastructure. And of course there's easier ways to do it. We got a wide open border. Anything can be taken out of the infrastructure and that kind of a situation. But these cyber attacks make it very easy
for them to pretty much shut down anything anywhere. And I think we're seeing demonstrations of this on a regular basis, even though that's not the way it's reported in the mainstream media. What do you think. You're right and it's just a beginning and it's going to keep happening. Yeah, you know, I was a keynote speaker at the Junior Military Institute back in the early two thousands. They brought me there to talk about one of my was talking about
my book New Millennium Warfare. It's totally different, totally different warfare, and Segri is going to be part of it. Oh you know, there's another quote in here by Biden in his op ed's piece. Israel is facing unprecedented attacks from Iran, and Ukraine is facing continued bombardment from Russia that has intensified dramatically in the last month. The House must pass the package this week, and the Senate should quickly follow. I will sign this into law immediately.
You're ready to send the message to the world. Quote, we stand with our friends and we won't let Iran or Russia succeed. That's Biden. Yeah, yeah, that's They're not my friends. I'm an American and I believe in the founding fathers like George Washington. Yeah, well, Biden thinks that His mentioned twice this week that his grandfather or something was oh yeah, e by Cannibals. He's out in La La. There's somebody else who's actually running
that show there. He is totally off off the reservation when it comes to that. But yeah, well we stop at that, stop at that, because that shows you how out of their minds they are. Yeah, oh yeah, and that's why I'm saying they're going to take us to nuclear annihilation. This is a guy talking about his uncle being eaten by cannibals. I mean, and he's our president. Yeah, oh yeah, I know. Yeah. It truly is amazing where this whole thing is headed, and it
really is going down the tubes. But again, there are things that we just have to we have to underst and that we can make a difference individually, and we can stand up. And that's why you do occupy peace, that's why you take a look at what is happening economically. There are still things that we can do, and we just don't surrender. I mean, we're not suicidal and we are not without hope. And that's the key thing
is to make sure that we never get to that point. We'd have to take a clear look and not turn away from what is on the horizon. And we're not called to be Pollyanna about it, and just you know, well I don't see that, I don't want to see that. There's a lot of ugly stuff that is there that we need to clearly look at, and we need to stand up clearly and oppose it without being intimidated. And I really do appreciate you doing that.

Yeah, it's an amazing bargain, and just from the financial standpoint as well, but also getting a heads up as to what is coming. He looks at the full spectrum of everything. It's not filled with fluff about Taylor Swift or the ballerinas on their toes times. I'm surprised that there's
still even a performing arts place or Broadway in New York. I thought all that stuff was gone with the wind after the lockdown. I'm surprised that there's still still things like that happening in New York. Isn't New York is dead now at twelve o'clock at night, it's all different places, it's all different city everywhere. Everything's changed in the COVID War. The damage is incalculable.
And of course Eric Adams is continuing to do the kind of stuff that Sadiq Khan is doing in the UK. In terms of you know, congestion, pricing and all the rest of this stuff. They're thinking of everything they can do to make it impossible for people to even get into New York with a car, let alone, keep these broadway open or any of the arts places open. Of course, they're all going to shut down if they shut down that kind of transportation. Who wants to get on the subway. It's like,
you know, it's like escape from New York. You know, it's turning. The subway area is absolutely crazy, isn't it. Good Night in Calcutta, Yeah, yeah, it truly is.
