Wed 27Nov24 David Knight Show UNABRIDGED Host Gardner Goldsmith

wherever you are, talking about the history of Thanksgiving. We'll be joined by Jason Barker of The Foxhole and Knights of the Storm at ten thirty today to talk about faith, friendship and locality, and we'll get into a lot of the big breaking news. We'll be talking possible Peace's office and some smiles about Thanksgiving as well here on the David Night Show. Well, it is an absolute pleasure and

an honor to be filling in for David Knight. I'm Gardner Goldsmith coming in from MRCTV and the Liberty Conspiracy, where every Monday through Friday, we get together at six pm Eastern US time or whatever time you call home and your time zone, and we break apart the news to derive long standing lessons of liberty out of the breaking news, that we can apply those lessons to future situations like those and maybe pass on some of those lessons to our progeny in a positive way. Good to

have you here, everyone. I hope your morning has been beautiful, day, night, whatever the time zone, and we're going to have a terrific day today. And I want to thank everyone at the David nightteen. What a wonderful family, what a wonderful group of viewers. And of course, if you're watching on Rumble, if you're watching on Rockfinn, I will check out your comments.

I mean the team here in deepest darkest Russia, where we have our studios, the team will get the implanted Russian propaganda in our brain chip receivers, and then we will look at your comments and siphon them through the eyes of Vladimir Putin, so that, of course we can continue to spread the Russian propaganda. Happy day before Thanksgiving. I know many people will be heading home around noontime today to head out with family and friends to maybe

get the last fixings for the meal tomorrow night. We'll talk about the tradition of Thanksgiving, the very first Thanksgiving, which actually pertains to my family because Richard Gardner. That's where we get the name Gardner, Goldsmith and Gardner Massachusetts and the town of Salem, Massachusetts was founded by the Gardner family. Isabella Stuart Gardner the museum in Boston. She married into the family, had a pet panther. By the way, used to walk down the streets with her pet panther.

The Gardner family came over on the Mayflowers. So I've got a little video presentation to offer you about the private, proper and free market ties to the original Thanksgiving, going all the way back to Holland when the Pilgrims went to Holland for a while. And we'll take a lot of your comments and get Jason Barker's ideas today as well as look at the news. Thank you again to David Knight. Remember everyone you can watch from nine to

noon Monday through Friday. Head over to the David Knight's store and get ready for Christmas because over there you'll see some great items. It's a terrific store. I love it, and of course consider donating today as this will start to close off the week, close off the month, and it's a great way to show your appreciation for what David does without commercials. It's just you and David Knight.

What a great thing. I see already from Maine. Our compatriot Steve Swan is there and he is saying hello. And we're gonna have some comments on the news coming up soon. We'll get the team to flash those comments up there and we'll say hi to everyone inside Rockfan and Rumble as well. Well, let's see what's scheduled for the program from our Russian schedulers on The David Knight

Show for eleven, twenty seven, twenty four. What's on tap today everyone, Well, The David Knight Show today will have a bit of a newsflash and it makes the nasty people happy. We'll get into that a little bit and then we'll talk about and Israeli has been a ceasefire perhaps, And I'm going to reiterate something that I got to discuss last night on my program, as well as touch upon yesterday briefly, growing concern over Donald Trump's picks not all of them, but many of them, And in fact,

there's a strange offset that came around last night. We'll give you that as one of our first big news stories where a lot of people are applauding him for one of his picks, but in applauding him for one of his picks, of course they're missing. I believe the larger lesson about the Constitution and the greater deeper lessons about peace has to do with Jay Batikaria at nih and the excitement many people are feeling about that. Well, it's tempered with a little bit of realism about the

way that people are accepting an uncompromisingly corrupt system. If we can use those two terms together. We'll also talk about Kamala Harris MSNBC and Rev learned Al and money. Yes, I wanted to talk a little bit more about this last night on Liberty Conspiracy again Monday through Friday, if you want to check it out over at Rumble at six pm and at Rockvin and over at my x

feed which is at guard Goldsmith. I should mention that at guard Goldsmith we'll also talk about something I didn't get to discuss at all last night, and plan to discuss this is a story that is getting applause for some reason. I'd love to get your feedback on this. Social Security is ripping people off some more non payers

will get more money. Literally, non payers into Social Security who worked for various forms of government and didn't have to pay into Social Security are now going to get extra money from Social Security and they're calling that fairness. Ha ha, all right, thanksgiving us here, can't wait a Oh, it's good thing that Pilgrims escaped all that tyranny. Huh. And then we'll talk about something that I think is

quite interesting, doctor Campbell and the Shroud of Turn. I mentioned this a little bit last night on the program. If we can touch on this, we will. But I've got another little something from doctor Campbell that will tie into Jay Bodikaria and a lot of the medical censorship that we experienced on things like Facebook and YouTube. So that is our schedule for the David Knight Show. And again I want to thank everyone for being there. It's great to have you here. Everyone. I am so pleased.

And also, let's see if we can get the team to post up already. Our first comment from Steve swan Over in Maine, the purpose of the sixty a hasibile a ceasefire is to allow Israel to prepare for war

with Iran when Trump gets into office. And you know what, Steve, I think that speculation is already slightly confirmed by what we discussed last night on Liberty Conspiracy, the open comments from mister Charmer, the Prime Minister of Israel, Benjamin Netan Yahoo, because he has said, as Anti War reported Dave de Camp report it in Anti War News, that he has said that it will allow this ceasefire, which isn't even a ceasefire because Israel can cancel it at any time. Yeah,

it's a ceasefire unless we say it isn't. Oh really is that sort of like a marriage unless you say it isn't. That's right, I can do whatever I want. I'm getting your money, it doesn't matter. So I'm getting your money too, and I'm getting weapons from you as well. That's essentially what Benjamin Netnyah who intimated he said that

it will allow them to focus more on Gaza. And as I said, i'm my program and I might have said it here, I think they are going to be doing everything they can between tomorrow and New Year's Day, as you two would say, all will not be quiet on New Year's Day in Gaza because they're going to do as much as they can over the next month to try to eliminate as many people as they can from Gaza, especially northern Gaza, and then they're going to try to take over and sweep through I think, and

Netanyahu thinks that he's very close to achieving his goals. So we'll talk about that and get more of your opinions than I want to say again, thank you to the Russian team here as they welcome people on the David Knight Show. Fellow conspirator, I can't believe he is chiming in on X as well. So by the way, if you're watching on X, this is on David Knight's X platform, which is at Libertytarian. Please send the links out to as many people as you can during the program,

and remember donations are very very welcome. As I fill in for David, I want to make sure that I do a really good job for David and for you as well. And he says, good morning, my brother. Always a pleasure, and he says liberty conspiracy with the Statue of Liberty. What a great welcome just wonderful. Really appreciate that. And also final comment that we'll put up before we get rolling here, Steve Swan mentions most of Trump's picks

war with the Randhawks. Absolutely right, yeah, absolutely, it's a good thing we have the Russian team here to put those posts up. All right, let's get started, everyone and discuss something that I think might be valuable and get into this positive side that many people are applauding. But again a little dose of reality about this. The news came out last night everyone and wanted to share it

on David Knight's program today. From MRCTV my work at MRCTV to Liberty Conspiracy to you at the David Knight audience. It is about Donald Trump's decision to appoint or nominate one of the signing members of the Roundstones of the Great Barrington Declaration, Jay Badakaria, involved with, of course, the Murthy v. Missouri lawsuit, which has been combined with a

lawsuit from RFK Junior. They originally said in the Supreme Court that the plaintiffs, including J. Baricaria and a number of doctors, did not have steaming because they could not show that they had been directly harmed by the United States government engaging in censorship well. In fact, Clarence Thomas noted that one of the doctors could cite direct harm. She lost her position specifically because of a note of falsehood that was posted on one of these social media sites.

She was nailed for that and she was removed from her job. But there's more to the Jay Badakaria story. Let's get a little theme from some wonderful musicians backing somebody who way back in the old days, got a lot of people very excited. He was, of course, James Brown. How big, good, so good.

So do a lot of fans of Jay Bidacaria, And I think Jay Vedercarria put up a tremendous fight on many fronts, both trying to get out the facts and on the political free speech side. Of course, the Great Barrington Declaration signed in Great Barrington, Massachusetts, at the home

of the American Institute for Economic Research full disclosure. I have many friends who worked there, and in fact, the first time I met David Knight in Kingston, New York, when I traveled to see Gerald Soilente's presentation for peace and David spoke there, I passed right by the building. I almost went up. I could see the building on the hill, but I didn't have enough time to stop in.

It's a beautiful building. East Barrington, Massachusetts, wonderful mountainous region, very very close to the New York border, and really close to Gerald Silent's Kingston, New York well. Jay Batikaria has been nominated. He will likely be the man that is debated for NIH, and he posted on Twitter slash x, which Jason Barker calls TwixT. I am honored and humbled by President at Real Donald Trump's nomination of me to

be the next NIH director. We will reform American scientific institutions so that they are worthy of trust again, and will deploy the fruits of excellent science to make America healthy again. Does anybody see some problems there? I do, because it's collectivism. It's we will do this and we will make America healthy again. It is the argument of so called public health. And Jay Batakaria did a very good job in trying to stay away from government edicts

and just offer recommendations to people. He said, and he was absolutely right that you won't get endemic status through vaccination.

You go with allowing or asking the healthy people to be out in the community while the sicker or the more prone to sickness, frail, infirm, older people, higher risk people stay inside, allowing the younger, healthier people to acquire natural immunity by becoming infected, not dying, but gaining natural immunity, which is stronger and longer lasting and more predictable on a particular curve. And you don't have the older people out there until the population is filled with people with

natural immunity. That was the recommendation, and masks were understood by people at aie er Jay Bidikaria, the Great Barrington Declaration, those were understood by many of them who spoke out as I did from OURCTV and we got slammed and censored for that. In fact, you can't even find some of our videos at YouTube in which I discussed some of these things. They were removed by YouTube. Or buy mrctv because YouTube was going to give us a lot of strike and that will bring us to John Campbell

in a minute. Actually, so, Jay Bartikaria put up a very good fight, but unfortunately he still accepts as does Donald Trump, as do many people who think there will be this great change if you just change the person at the wheel of the sinking ship. It is an immoral,

unconstitutional agency. You don't fix things by replacing and putting in someone to head up something that shouldn't exist in the first place and derives its money to make America healthy again, by taking away individual choice and siphoning off people's money to feed the NIH. I'm sorry, but that is a major lesson that should be expounded and echoing from the rooftops of the Internet. I hope, because this is the larger lesson here. He might be to try

to change some policies. But what does the word policy mean. It means dic tod. It means command backed by threats of government force. That's all it is. You strip off all of the accouterments to the state, all of the rhetoric, all the flowery the government is US nonsense, and if you don't want to be part of the US, you'll find out that the government isn't you, and the NIH is not you. And there's no such thing as public health.

There is no such thing as public health. There's individual health, which I thought Jay Betikaria was stressing by saying, don't have government dictants, have voluntary choice to stay away, don't have lockdowns, don't shut down people's businesses. I thought that was very important, and he likely does still support those things. But by adopting the idea that there should be in any way an NIH to adopt policy, promulgate policy, work on policy for so called public health, you are adopting

a giant, pernicious kenard. There is only individual health. Public health is a utilitarian construct of consequentialist philosophy. It is the greatest good for the greatest number. And what does that mean. There is no public health because there are only individuals. When individuals gather in large groups, or if government puts them into certain categories of large groups created by the government, all that does is put them in a group. It doesn't mean that they're no longer individuals.

They don't melt into some giant gstalt. They're still individuals. And by claiming public health, by claiming they can create policy for the greater good, the greatest good for the greatest number, they undercut the individual's right to be left alone. They undercut the individual's right to decide for himself what to do with his own life, regarding medicine and more deeply regards darting his own earnings and income and where

that money should be spent. Any idea that the money should go to the NIH means that a portion of that person's life is being taken away for the greater good. That is a sacrifice of the individual, which then means you get to the final point philosophically and logically, you're actually undercutting the very idea of the greatest good for the greatest number. Good can only be defined by the individual.

It can't be defined by authoritarian people who issue dictats, even if they're trying to get involved in running an agency that has issued terrible dictants in the past, and you're trying to fix it, because it still exists, on a philosophical level, it is an insult to individual sovereignty

and natural rights. The entire superstructure of the NIH A For those who are constitutionalists, and I'm a Christian anarchist, I know that a bunch of people signing a piece of paper over two hundred years ago gives them no authority over me, just as a bunch of people signing a paper claiming authority over me now would give them no authority over me either. You have to engage in consent for voluntary interaction for it to be acceptable on

an ethical or moral level. All other systems that are imposed on people are immoral and unethical, period full stop. There is no way around that. That's just how it works amongst adults with natural rights. That's why anarchy, no human ruler, is the way I operate. I don't want to control my neighbor, and I don't want my neighbor to control my other neighbor. I want them to leave each other alone. That is something that I would afford to them. You have a right to be left alone

by me. I have a right to be left alone by you. The NIH is an absolute affront to that. Now, Ja Betikaria will be a positive regarding policy, I'm sure, but policy itself, the existence of policy in any regard, especially in this regard, means that rights are being taken.

And it also means that tautological obviousness becomes apparent because by taking away the natural rights of the individual and claiming that you can impose policy on him and he can't disagree in some way, especially to the point of not being able to deny paying for something he might not want to pay for, like the nih you are imposing an attack on his natural rights, and you are restricting his ability to be able to determine for himself

what is good for himself. You don't get to any position of helping someone by threatening that person with aggressive force of the polas. So as Jay Betikaria comes out there, we can remember some of his heroic moments and his continuing efforts to engage in a lawsuit for free speech. His argument will be introduced as part of the RFK Junior facet of the Missouri v. Murthy v. Missouri lawsuit. It will go back into the Supreme Court because RFK Junior does have standing, and that will be heard by

the court probably this year. But as far as Ja Betakaria goes, it also allows us to remember the positive side. We can remember, of course that Jay Badikaria and others tried to speak up for medical freedom. They tried to mention to people, you know, don't get the jabs, it's unreliable. And of course later many people started to sound the alarm and we were silence, silence, just like Jabotikaria that there was no way you could know how many people

were infected because they were using faulty PCR tests. They were incentivizing hospitals, paying them to claim that people who died with a positive faulty PCR test died from COVID. Then of course we found that they were silencing us regarding masks and the jab itself and how dangerous it was, and of course the very idea of its efficacy was highly questionable right from the start, as we discovered later.

As I mentioned Robert Rus questioning Janine Smalls from Pfizer inside the EU, and he said, can you did you know whether the Pfiser jabs were effective in stopping transmission? And of course she has said, oh no, of course we didn't know that we had to operate that of this at the speed of science science, which is such

a logical rhetorical jumble. It's completely contradictory. You don't operate at the speed of science and then put something out without using the scientific method on it to see if it works. That's fairly obvious. So we can applaud ja by Tekaria, or I can applaud jap by Akaria. One can applaud jape Botikaria for getting involved in that fight.

But I think if we go deeper into the inner sanctum of philosophy, we can see that the very concept of public health in this nih not only are unconstitutional, not allowed in any fair assessment of the Constitution, but also we can fairly assess the fact that this man worked very hard to try to get his message out and he was silenced. And in fact, I have to say, Russell Brand actually posted something that many people have seen before, but I want to bring it up, and he did

it with this little bit of a spin. I won't show the whole thing, but it is Rachel Maddow and it shows you just the amazing, amazing effrontery of these people. To use that term again, I think is appropriate because they have no shame even today. She's talking about Jay Bidikaria as a quack when he was proven correct as far as how to handle the so called pandemic, which is, you can't rely on jabs to introduce into the population

and endemic status. People get them at different times. The curve is jagged, it's not even a curve, and you don't even know whether the those jabs are going to be effective, which was proven right and she was proven wrong. Here we go.

you vaccines are safe and effective is lying. He has the chart right in there, as those dangerous diseases. The slope of the of the diseases amongst the population was going down throughout the nineteen thirties, forties and fifties as people got better medicine, better nutrition, and better cleanliness. And sure enough, when they introduced various vaccines for those, the slope did not change and become steeper, so it had no effect.

similar thing. In fact, it's a parallel. It's a bit of a it's a cipher to the same argument that can be made about FEMA. Again, unconstitutional the original concept of government under John Locke's idea, and I discussed this briefly yesterday about how Locke was off because he thought that government was created to allow people to protect themselves from encroachments by others against their lives or their property. But government itself is an encroachment against your lives. So

it's tautological again, but at least on the baseline. The

founders embraced the idea that an authentic political system. And I don't agree with this, but this is just you know, stating their ideas Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, and so on, that they thought that government, like John Locke had said one hundred years before, was valid if it was there to stop people from encroaching on other people's lives person on person attacks, So a virus would not be something in which the government is supposed to participate in protecting

people by taking their money and coming up with policies that then force them to do things like even create jabs. Now constitutionally, I suppose people could come up with an argument, and this is actually as a social Aurpova reported, this was actually sort of the way they did it through

the Department of Defense. They developed these jabs, with the money going out to Pfizer and Maderna and so on so forth, years before the rollout of the jabs, and of course they were failures over and over and over again. But one could maybe make an argument that the Department of Defense can develop a viral protector, some sort of vaccine if they think that a foreign nation state is

going to be developing an attack virus. But the only way that they really could do that would be if Congress declared war and called up the militia and then a portion of them. It's a little byzantine. So just to stick to the basics of it, let's just say that it really is inappropriate on a philosophical and the

spirit of the Constitution doesn't allow under their rules. And again, as an anarchist, I don't even think that the Constitution signed by others can be authentically claimed to have any authority over you if you didn't give your consent, which you didn't two hundred years ago. And I haven't given my consent to the Constitution either, And just because I don't run away doesn't mean that I give my consent. As as mentioned, that's mafia talk. You didn't run away,

so you accept our control over you. No, who's initiating the aggression here? I am, But you didn't away, so you accept my aggression. No, you don't set the rules. Sorry, leave me alone. But the idea that the government can engage in protecting you against naturally occurring phenomenon was absolutely contrary to every principle under which the founders founded the US Constitution. And that gets us to the constant storm of FEMA. Because you might have seen that people are

still very upset about FEMA. We'll get to the FEMA stuff in just a minute. Let me just show you John Campbell's incredibly beautiful, sarcastic response to continuing censorship. To round off the Jay Batikaria announcement and I'll get your thoughts. Let me know if you think that it is a positive, but it is tinged with negativity because it doesn't eliminate the NIH and that is something that Donald Trump should

do if he's going to support the Constitution. If you agree, maybe you have some different nuance and you want to offer those, offer your comments inside Rumble, inside rockfin or on x and we can post them thanks to the team here in Russia. But John Campbell I mentioned John Campbell on Liberty Conspiracy, mentioned him briefly maybe yesterday on David Show. John Campbell a doctor. He's got a PhD in philosophy as well. He taught in front of nursing

for nursing as well. John Campbell, the British Man who did such a good job after he himself thought that he had been injured by jabs, starting to get the information out, getting some of the data and really going through things for people, just turning on his camera and going through things with a second camera over a book or showing his screen and outlining information he was researching well. I mentioned that he's done fairly well without getting slammed

too hard by the censorious minds. At Google Alphabet YouTube. Well, guess what he just posted something that tells us no, he has been censored in a way. They just hit him for wrong think. But his response to it was absolutely beautiful. He hasn't been removed, but he's gotten one of those thirty day warnings. And I would like to compliment him and offer a reminder about his work because he's done very very well for quite a while, and

I hope people will remember this. Good man John Campbell, here's what he had to say, just a couple of seconds to offer you this beautiful response, and it's wonderfully sarcastic.

I failed and was a judge to have breached the guidelines. Now, the guidelines are very much based on contributors not being allowed to contradict official teaching, for example in areas of health from national health bodies or august international bodies such as the World Health Organization. But of course we wouldn't want to contradict will point out criticism of because that would group community guidelines, So of course you wouldn't want to do that.

big YouTube can't remove him. But they did hit him with that red flag, and you know, talking about the United States government engaging in censorship through Facebook for your own good. The World Health Organization redefined the term pandemic in March of two thousand and nine, just before the H one N one, so called pandemic, which it wasn't

a pandemic. They lowered the lethality threshold so that to call something a pandemic, whatever the outbreak had to be didn't have to be as deadly, and they could use the scary term pandemic, of course, allowing politicians to use that rhetorically to gin up fear, to allow for the government to seize more power and more money. Of course, well, as I mentioned, the founders found this entirely alien to the concept of an appropriate government. The police was only

supposed to exist for person on person predation. Of course, that's what the government is. It's people on other people predation. As Tergick Bossier said, it's people trying to gain advantage over other people. And we know that people have spoken out about the source of the viral research and whether or not the pandemic might have been caused by Wuhan research.

It seems pretty clear that the money that originally was going to Chapel Hill, North Carolina, through NIH and NIAI D and Anthony Fauci was given the so called pause, which I think was just a screen that Barack Obama put up with full knowledge. I think on Obama's part that he wasn't really banning again a function research, but they just used the Eco Health Alliance as a front to channel the NIH money through eco Health and then send all the people who were doing the research in

North Carolina over to Wuhan. Now, whether or not people think that the result of their research at Chapel Hill and at Wuhan resulted in a virus that infected people and hurt people, whether or not they think that that was real or they don't think it was real. Whether they think it was real and it was intended to cause fear and cause harm and then inspire the reaction of the which was the end destination for politicians and the drug manufacturers, or they think it was not actually

something that escaped from Wuhan and that was developed. Is those are all irrelevant to me. To me, what's relevant is on their constitutional level. They swear an oath to uphold the Constitution. Therefore the NIH and NIAID shouldn't exist. Therefore, none of the viral research should be happening. Whether it's gain of function reshars or not, whether it produces something or it doesn't, and people want to debate it or they don't. The baseline is I have a right to

be left alone and so to you. So there we are. We're done. You don't have to argue anymore about what the result of it was. One does not need to expend energy on it. However, in doing so, I think it is worthwhile investigating some of these corrupt channels of money like the EcoHealth Alliance and Peter Dazak and actually look into the Wuhan information. I think people are interested in it. I think it shows some very nefarious individuals

and their lies. And again, Jay Batikaria did a fantastic job in trying to stand up for traditional medicine against a maelstrom of government censorship. But again, the idea of the public health concept actually undercuts our ability to decide and a judge for ourselves, just like FEMA. So let's talk about FEMA right now, because FEMA is the constant storm. And I'm going to tie this into something that will

bring us into some of the war information. But I want to show you what is happening for still for victims of Hurricane Helene. They're not happy about this, and they are speaking up about the United States government pushing with new proposals to send even more money out to

Ukraine while this is going on. Matt van Swall writes, watch as FEMA officials blame the victims of Hurricane Helen for not wanting to come out of their tents as the reason they're not helping them, literally blaming the victims. This is despicable.

for ourselves what betters our life and protects us. By removing our ability to be able to save and invest in things, they actually make it more risky for our lives. If you look at private industry versus government in areas like the tsunami victims out in the Pacific, private industy hotel owners got in and took care of things much more rapidly than government. Look at Hawaii, look at East Palestine.

The government slow response, slow response, slow response, and in addition to drawing away individual evaluation and ability to be

able to prepare for oneself and help a neighbor. There's that terrific book by Marvin Alaski which is called The Tragedy of American Compassion, and in it he shows just like Alexei Detakfel wrote in the early eighteen hundreds, he shows private initiative and how private initiative and local communities and respect and reputation helped people and wanted and people wanted to show their reciprocation amongst their neighbors with whom

they would be associating for years. That's how many of these civic groups like four h and the Lions Club and the Rotary started. As those civic groups grew, we see them, we see the history of these as as a Marvin Alaski brought up, they were people who lived near each other, and they said, you know, we all helped out with for example, Tom and Jill's barn burned

down and we went and helped them rebuild it. And then for years afterwards they were bringing us milk and corn, and then they came and helped us out when we had this flood over at the corner of such and such, they reciprocated. It's person on person, not officious. You're not going up to some plexiglass office and taking a number and waiting in an office with some perpetually paid government

unionized employee who claims they're helping you and that they care. Well, they're getting paid regardless of whether they care, so we don't know whether they really care. The politicians are taking other people's money, so we don't know whether they really care. And the tax beayers have to pay or they'll go to jail, so we don't know whether they really care. So anything the government does, we can't actually say A and Erica cares about those people. We can't say that.

It's a literal impossibility. Logically speaking, the only way that care can be shown is through volition, individual choice, individual morals, and decisions over how much do I give to whom do I give? What is the response that I would like to see based on how that person responds to me, will I give to that person again? All of these things were decided and adjudged by people years ago in those civic groups, and then they became very prosperous. They had enough left over to be able to help out

people who weren't even parts of their groups. I was helped by the Rotary International to go to Australia to visit with Australians in Queensland. Now, I know some people think that the Rotary is a little too internationalist. But it's an example of small civic groups getting involved and helping each other and the amazing leveraging power that that has, especially for people who are amongst each other and are neighbors, and they have that reputation to a poll, that's extremely important.

The larger the area of control, the less personal it becomes, the less addressable it becomes, and the less information you have. So perhaps I might think that helping people in this particular area would be good, and I might want to donate. If I find that the organization to which I donated was wasting money, then I wouldn't give to them again. Or if I found that they were sending something to a place that I didn't want it sent, I might go to a different place that maybe spiritually was more

connected with Christianity. Or maybe I want to help people who are writers because I'm a writer want to help people out. There are musicians groups that help out poor musicians and give them instruments. I knew some people who had their instruments stolen. There were a Swedish punk band and their guitars were stolen and they were able to turn to this group that allows for bands to be able to get free instruments and emergencies. That's a band

of musicians. So these sorts of things of they foster good relationships with neighbors. And we see that here with David Knight's program, with you contributing over on Rockfin. I see already we have a contribution to the David Knight Show. And I want to thank Carlos Rex. David Knights received a tip of five dollars over. Thank you very much, Carlos. So what would happen if the government took our money to spend it on things like, oh, I don't know,

broadcasting like NPR. We would all argue about it. Many people might be satisfied with NPR, they might like those ridiculous documentaries Ken Burns made, and many people might not. They might recognize how biased the Civil War documentary was towards the North, and they might not want their money going there. Why can't we have choice? Why can't we have freedom? And this is the thing with the so called aid to natural disasters, It is a constant storm

that undercuts our ability to respond. And of course, if we see private initiative, there's a reason that that money should remain in the bank. It needs to be leveraged so that people can invest in new things, in R and D or in protecting their investments. So that's a very important thing. Then, of course you get to federal flood insurance. John Stossel has done a great job talking about federal flood insurance and what a boondoggle that is. A man named Wally Stickney from New Hampshire. I got

to know Wally when I was doing radio here. He worked in the George H. W. Bush administration in FEMA, and he said, hey, Guard, I'll tell you the way it works in many of these areas, especially places like North Dakota where is it the Red River floods. Almost you know, every year or every few years, people in

those areas game the system. They take their old furniture, bring it down to the lower levels of their homes where they know that they can then cite it for being flood damaged and they'll get paid and they will replace their old furniture with new furniture. He says, I've seen it happen over and over again. So those are

the unproductive results of an already immoral system. And so if we look at that, we can see that some people are very upset about what's been going on in the flood zones, and curiously enough, we're seeing some people over in England who are getting very upset about something similar. Want to turn to chay Bos who's actually in Russia and reports for the evil RT, because he's expressing some

indignation on as many people in the flood zones. Here the government of Britain spending more and more money to send it over to Ukraine. So let's see chay Bo's and see what chay Bo's had to say. As he says, I asked the British ambassador to Russia why his government is happy to spend hundreds of millions to escalate the war in Ukraine and kill Russians. He was summoned as another British diplomat was thrown out of Russia for spying.

He said. I also asked him why his embassy is being used as an intelligence base to undermine the Russian Federation, all while British pensioners freeze to death because his government took away their fuel benefits and he ran away. So again it's a bit of a mixing, because again it's not appropriate for the government to be taking people's money to supply it for protection against cold weather for anybody.

It's just inappropriate to take the money in the first place, but I definitely understand the added insult of taking the money that they claim is going to be used to help people, and then, under the auspices of so called your defense, giving it to Ukraine in a conflict that was inspired by Western aggression over decades and the overthrow of the Ukrainian government in late twenty thirteen and twenty fourteen.

So here's jay bos in Russia trying to get a word in with the new British ambassador because the other one was removed for spying.

which is an absolute boondoggle. And just a few years ago they were exposed for emails to each other about trying to hide information that they were going to have to close some offices medical offices because they were so overbudgeted and overstaffed and they didn't have enough money coming in already with their giant bloated budgets. Absolutely absolutely crazy.

You look at Matt Hancock and his deceptiveness claiming, you know, his crocodile tears when they got the jabs, knowing that the jabs were not proven to be effective in any way, knowing that they hadn't been shown to have been safe, and then bringing in medazlan, which is absolutely dangerous and likely was used to kill a lot of pensioners in the UK. And Matt Hancock later who was the man who talked about separating, keeping apart, not having contact with people.

Being caught on camera in an elevator with his paramour, yes, having an affair and feeling her up. Just unbelievable. Man.

The same man, Matt Hancock, by the WHO, when I was in England, promoted the canard of hoof and Mouth around two thousand and two, I think it was, And I literally was at Heathrow Airport watching the television and they were going to shut down the airports because they were afraid that people who had walked through the Midlands might have tracked some infected soil onto their shoes and they didn't want it tracked everywhere. It was utterly false.

They ended up culling thousands and thousands and thousands of heads of cattle and sheep, unbelievable destruction for the farmers. Akin to a bubble of the enclosure movement of the royals back in the sixteen hundred and seventeen hundreds in England as the royal system started to shut down. So chay Bo's. You can watch jay Bo's on Russia today. He's got a program. It's a half hour show and it's terrific. It's a lot of fun called Moscow Mules,

and I have shown many segments of Moscow Mules. In fact, I've recorded some on Sunday on my recording system because I wanted to show it on Liberty Conspiracy. J Bos He's actually a stand up comic from Ireland, but he does very good work in covering the news and he mixes humor with the information on Moscow Mules. So let's mix a little music right now, everybody on the David Knight Show, Let's pause for a minute and reflect again

as we look at all this intense news. Let's reflect again that it's the holiday season and I am very grateful to be filling in for David. It's absolutely wonderful to be here, and so I would like to offer some of the wonderful music that David Knight put together for Christmas time as it approaches. Here is, of course, some of the music that you might know very well from the Peanuts. It's Christmas Charlie Brown, Charlie Brown, Christmas, brought to you by, of course, the David Knight Show.

was getting cold. We took a picture in very dim light, David and I looking up at the camera. It was wonderful. It was just great. So thank you to everyone who's watching, and again, thank you to the David nineteen wonderful people. And I also want to thank the people at MRCTV.

I wrote an article last night. It was about a thousand word article for MRCTV because I knew I was going to be doing the show for David today from nine to noon, and I wanted to make sure that the editors had it because I knew they would be leaving in Washington at noontime. So we'll talk about that later in the show. And at ten thirty, Jason Barker, one of the great people we've met through this wonderful association at the David Knights Show and his ministry here,

Jason bark will be joining us. He have Knights of the Storm and the Foxhole and we'll be talking a little bit about Thanksgiving and we'll go through some of the history of Thanksgiving shortly. But let's get back to intensity. Let's talk not just about the holidays, but about preserving freedom and about again that strange differential as people look at the money being spent that they think, maybe you know, I contributed to this. I was forced to pay for this.

These pensioners, they're forced to pay into it over in England. How about those people who are forced to pay for FEMA and yet yes, they want to spend more money on Ukraine. Let's talk war and get some word from Edwin Starr.

like Sesame Street, by the way. I I saw Sesame Street the first year it started, and many people aren't familiar with this, and even though it's public television, I do have a warm spot in my heart for the original Sesame Street, and you know, some of the people who are on there, and the ingenuity and creativity of Jim Henson and the Muppets and so on. Oscar the Grouch originally was orange, and I actually have a record, one of those Sesame Street records that was released that

shows Oscar Grouch as orange. But they changed Oscar the Grouch to green because they realized they were putting it out in color. But they realized a lot of people still had black and white televisions and orange didn't show as well in the gray scale as green did. So that's quite interesting that they went to that specificity to recognize that very quickly. That's interesting somebody must have noticed it on the monitor or maybe compared. That's the only

thing I can think of. Well, let's compare United States FEMA response to the United States Ukraine response. And yes, we'll get aboard with some of the people who are very critical, and I think appropriately so, about the fact that their tax money has been taken to fund FEMA, even though it shouldn't exist. It's not government to protect you against naturally occurring phenomenon or subsidize you to go

and live in a place again. Like John Stossel showed with his beach house where you had it all paid for. After it was wiped out, government came in gave him more money to build in the exact same spot, which is reckless. Causes a lot of people to live in places where they shouldn't if they had to get regular private insurance. And that's a waste of resources, not only our tax resis, but resources to build those houses. See

them destroyed and then brought back again. It's ridiculous. Let's talk about the waste of resources going to Ukraine right now. And by the way, everybody you'll see here at the Anti War website, Scott Horton's book provoked being promoted great book, and I was hoping Scott could join us today but didn't hear back. So I think that Scott will join me on Liberty Conspiracy for a future program sometime at six pm. We'll give you the heads up for my feet.

That's at Guard Goldsmith. But let's take a look at this. Biden asks Congress to authorize twenty four billion dollars more to spend on Ukraine. Now, sentimentally speaking, I think that that is an absolute affront to many of those people who are going to be suffering cold and wet and unhealthy conditions because the United States government promised them that they would help, and they have not helped in those

flood zones. But in addition to that, there's I think the longer term lesson that can be drawn from this, which is that the US government is not at war. It has no allies. These are just basic technical terms. It has no allies. It is not supposed to be sending weapons to foreign countries or sending money to foreign countries. That's it. I don't swear no to the Constitution. I drive around in my car and listen to punk rock.

But this is a very clear point that I can bring up to the constitutionalists and those who support Donald Trump might want to remember that when he stands for supposedly bringing peace to Ukraine, and yet he brings mister Sebastian Gorka in, who is an absolute Ukraine Hawk, and he wants to continue sending weapons to Israel. Biden now asks Congress to authorize twenty four billion dollars more to

spend on Ukraine. Perhaps he worries that mister Trump is going to decrease that the White House wants eight billion dollars to purchase weapons for Ukraine and sixteen billion to replenish US arms. So you can see, just like here, Starmer is insulting so many of those people who thought that maybe the government was taking their money to give

them money in their old age as pensioners. Now they can't understand why are our pensions being cut when you're sending billions over the course of a couple years in British pounds to Ukraine and sending weapons there Like the storm shadow. The Biden administration, according to Dave DeCamp, who's absolutely great, has asked Congress to approve twenty four billion dollars in additional spending on Ukraine as it's working to

ramp up the proxy war as much as possible. During President Biden's final weeks in office, Politico pro obtained a request from the White House's Office of Management and Budget that asked Congress to include additional Ukraine spending and a continuing resolution that's expected to be voted on next month. Two Congressional aids said Congress received the proposal on Monday.

The request asked for eight billion dollars for the Ukraine's Security Assistance Initiative, a form of military aid that allows the US to purchase weapons for Ukraine, and sixteen billion dollars to replace US military equipment that's been sent to Ukraine. Boy, we are a long way away from Lexington and conquered people's private weapons, even private cannons being used in a militia of citizen military. Aren't we a perpetual war machine with all sorts of weapons and money going to military

industrial complex people. I guess Christmas is going to be good for them. And now the new governor of New Hampshire, Kelly aod And I want to bring this up again. You might have heard me mention this on Liberty Conspiracy. She was on the board of BAE Systems, a defense contractor. At the same time she was on the board of Fox News, and she had the audacity to go on to Fox News to talk about how they needed to send more weapons to Ukraine, and Fox News never once

mentioned this massive, towering olympus. Mond's conflict of interest just stunning, absolutely amazing how far people have come from all of that original concept of a citizen militia of smaller, decentralized government.

But this is where the underlying philosophical error of government is put on you for your protection comes in, because that opens the door if people are unwilling to call into question the aggressive nature of that very concept that people can tell you they can take your money for your protection, well then it opens the door to all of this stuff because they come up with all these different rationales that say, it's for your protection, it's for

your health care protection, it's for your protection against terrorism. We've got to spy on you, we've got to censor you for your protection. We've got to take your money and give it to Ukrainians, we've got to open up bio weapons plants and Ukraine. With Barack Obama and Dick Lugar going there around two thousand and five, two thousand and six. There's your protection. We've got to overthrow the

government of Yanikovich. For your protection. We've got to support Israel because supposedly they're America's greatest ally for your protection. When do you get to decide that you don't because it's a protection racket. Biden is just part of a long series of abuses, as Thomas Jefferson said, a long train of abuses, and it continues. For your protection, and

there's more, there's even more. Let's get into some of the other items and talk about the worries that people have about Sebastian Gorka, and what I brought up seems to be something that other people are recognizing as well. Sebastian Gorka is a guy who seems quite risky and quite dangerous. So let's discuss this man. As I mentioned yesterday on the day and I showing on Liberty Conspiracy, I didn't even have any contact with him. Years ago. I thought, oh, I think he might know some people

from MRCTV. So I was at Twitter slash x and I went over and he had already blocked me. Sebastian Gorka. Well, worries about Sebastian Gorka, worries about Mike Huckabee, worries about others who are being put into the new Trump administration are arising now. Whether or not Trump is doing this to try to present a very strong front for negotiating purposes, I don't know, but I'll tell you one thing. I

don't appreciate my money going to Sebastian Gorka. Now, the man who already blocked me on Facebook's now is going to get part of my paycheck. And he has nonsense like we played yesterday to say, let's hear some other people who are concerned about this, Judge Andrew Politano and Colonel Douglas McGregor, and they put this, Well, here we go.

but it's for your own good. It's the I'm embracing you, whether you like it or not, and I'm calling it we us. What if I don't want to be embraced, What if I want to don't want to be assaulted by you? No, I'm sorry. It's we, and it's aid. We are given as if he's somehow wonderfully beneficent. It's he and Donald Trump are going to do this. These great chess masters are going to be giving more aid. We the aid we have given to Ukraine so far.

We that itself, the insult of that to all of us is so manifest, and it lies at the heart of everything politicians do. They always say, America cares, it's for your good. We have done this, we have done that. No, there is no w, there is no we in the polis. It's a group of people telling other people what to do. That's what it is. And those other people who are forced to do it. You can't say that they gave their consent. This again goes back to the point of

the so called war against all. The state of war was something that John Locke said could be avoided by government. What is the state? It is constant threat of war against you if you don't comply. There is no way around it. It's inarguable. And if anybody wants to argue about it, just try not complying sometime and see what happens. See what people like this man will do under the flowery language, the poisonous flowers of aid we have already given,

and then we will ramp it up. The insult of that man to use that on a philosophical level and maybe not even realize it is stunning as he wags his tail like a tiger out there. Just incredible. And to think that all these years after Thanksgiving we can see these warmongers doing this sort of thing, All these years after the Pilgrims came over, they're doing this sort of thing. Let's give one more quick item here for you. Now, there supposedly is a ceasefire in Lebanon. This is a

big move. Israeli Cabinet Lebanon ceasefire announced to begin Tuesday, at nine pm Eastern Standard time, Dave DeCamp discussed this article by Jason Ditz and I want to show you a little bit of what Dave had to say.

So this articles from Jason Ditz. So at nine pm Eastern time here in the United States, at four am be Root time over in Lebanon, in Israel, Lebanon ceasefire officially took effect, potentially ending an ongoing in Israeli invasion and repeated air strikes which have killed thousands and displaced well over a million Lebanese civilians. So this deal was broken by the US, and the Israeli security cabinet voted

earlier today, earlier on Tuesday to support it. This deal prescribes a sixty day ceasefire in which HESBLA is to move its armed assets north of the Latani River, and the Lebanese government is supposed to deploy its army into the southern area of the country. As a buffer between

Israel and Hezbola. Israel, for their part, is supposed to do with draw their ground troops from southern Lebanon and to stop attacking Lebanese territory, and as far as I understand it, they're supposed to do that withdrawal within this sixty day timeframe. So we've been talking a lot about how Israel was demanding that they have freedom to act in Lebanon if they determine that Hesbela has violated the ceasefire.

But under this deal, according to these reports, there's a mechanism that if Israel sees suspicious movements of Hesbela, they're supposed to report it to some US led committee. The US is like overseeing this ceasefire, even though I mean, Israel's strongest and biggest, ally doesn't seem that it's not

like they're a neutral party. But there's some mechanism where Israel supposed to tell the US about it, and then the US tells the Lebanese military about it, and then if they determine, if the US and Israel determined that they didn't do enough about it, then Israel would be free to take action.

the Israeli military's Arabic language spokesman. He said that after the ceasefire went into effect, he warned Lebanese civilians against attempting to return to their homes in the evacuation zones, saying the prohibition is still in effect, saying that they can't return to their homes yet, so that's not a good sign. I still haven't seen any official word from Hesbola that they've agreed to the deal, but it does seem like, I mean, based on what we've seen today,

it seems like they must have. But now again, Israel really ramped up air strikes. I mean all day throughout Tuesday, they were like really bombing Bey Root areas of Central Bay Route that they didn't really target too much over the past year. And they also, you know, right before the seasfire went effect, like a couple hours before, they bombed eastern Lebanon, and they carried out multiple attacks on

North Lebanon on its border crossings into Syria. They've already taken out the border crossings in eastern Lebanon, you know, but this is in northern Lebanon where they took out they were bombing these border crossings and they've all been closed now because of that.

World War Two. Yeah, against as so called Iranian aligned target. An Iranian aligned target. Now, don't forget how trustworthy so many of these people are in government. They don't mention what I brought up before, and I showed yesterday in the Newsflash that Hamas gets all this criticism from the West that they're a terrorist organization. We hear Pamela Bondi saying people who are saying that they support Hamas on

college campuses, the FBI should investigate those people. Right. In fact, we can show some of that in just a little bit. But it's amazing to think that they seemed to blithely forget, conveniently overlook the fact that the Israeli government supported Hamas and so did the United States with millions of dollars to the leadership living in Cutter. How is that? How does that comport with, Oh, you can't support Hamas otherwise

you're supporting terrorists. I don't get it. But of course we've got the United States, after they tried to overthrow a SOD numerous times, made up all sorts of stories about Asad using chemical weapons against his own people, which was obviously bogus, and even Barack Obama had to back down from that because students at MIT proved that the chemical weapons weren't fired by Assad and weren't the type of chemicals that Assad had. This during the Obama administration.

Now the US is bombing Iranian so called aligned targets in Syria. Yeah, it's all about trying to go after Iran, as Lindsey Graham said the day of October seventh, now got to we gotta take this, take care of this, Nikki Haley, take them out, finish it. In other words, go after Iran. It's just crazy. They already put a rack up against Iran. How about leaving those people alone. How about not supporting Israel and its attempts to assassinate Iranians.

How about Donald Trump not assassinating Iranians. How about not making up stories coming from John Brennan about Iranian assassins trying to kill Donald Trump, which is ridiculously fabulouistic and stupid. The US military announced on Tuesday that it launched a strike in Syria against an Iranian aligned target, marking at least the third time this month the US has bombed Syria. Is that does that at all at all conform to

any traditional concept of what George Washington said? It's just the contemporary cesspool of politics and these characters and these people driving these decisions, and the way that they have set up the structure of people's careers being in the military and being connected to the funding and all these things. Next paragraph is a great example. US Central Command sent Coom said the strike targeted an Iranian aligned militia weapons storage facility. Just set it. Yeah, we just went and

did it. You can't, You're not supposed to do that. It's just it's such an insult to all of you out there. It's just amazing how they think they can get away with stuff. But good people like Dave DeCamp at anti War they're doing really good work. I want to thank the anti war folks. I got a call from Angela Keaton a few weeks ago talking about how they were doing their fundraiser. I've known Angela for a long time and she's sort of behind the scenes in

anti war. And you can follow anti war at anti warg Calm on x Dave de Camp is at de Camp Dave Dcamp Dave. You can follow Dave de Camp and then there's anti war News you can follow at anti War News. And I think Angela is sort of one of the people behind the anti War news x feed. But you know, I think it's worthwhile to keep all that in mind as we look at one final bit,

a couple final bits. I want to compliment Katie Halper because she was in a conversation with Piers Morgan, one of the guys from the Jewish Defense Forces who actually is connected with the war crimes. And he's just unbelievably disturbing to see this guy and Alan Dershowitz and I played this last night on Liberty Conspiracy because Katie Halper, she's very well known for people who watch Aaron Motte. She's more on the left wing side. She's well known

for people who are fans of the Gray Zone. She's been a great reporter for a long time for anti war stuff. She's Jewish and the stories she's covered have been remarkable, and she really really laid into Alan Dershowitz with an absolutely fantastic job. And then well, we're going to look at a new revelation about Ben Shapiro and Candice Owen, which I think you might find interesting, and show a final bit about America's involvement in the Middle

East on video. Yes, they seem to capture their involvement a lot. Let's check this out. I think you might find this interesting. Katie Helper appearing on the Piers Morgan Show.

to what she's saying. He agrees with Katie, So.

You'll see that every year they have rounded up hundreds of people, held them without any due process in any way whatsoever, tortured them, which Katie will bring up, raped them, which Katie will bring up. As far as the military goes. But prior to October seventh, Netnyahu was cited for that sort of thing done to in some cases women and

kids as young as fourteen. And they just in Israel, they just passed an allowance to arrest and hold kids who were thirteen, which they were already doing essentially, but

now they've explicitly said they can do it. I mean to support forcing my neighbor to pay for any of this stuff is already a baseline no no, But when you look, I mean, whatever side one wants to pick, but when you look at the sheer preponderance of the evidence, there is no possible way that anyone with any sense of moral dignity can say, I want to force my

neighbor to pay for Israel. The state of Israel, as David Knight has said, the state, the political Israel is different than Israel in the Bible, than the biblical Israel. The state is not people. The state is an entity created to propel certain individuals and their ideas. It's not the individuals themselves who are forced to be part of it. Now, if someone is living in Israel, in that occupied area and they've moved there willingly, there's a problem. If you're

born there, what do you do after all these years? Ethically, I would get out. I'd say I'm leaving this place. I was born into an occupied area where I'm part of the occupation. Now I've been put into it. But then that gets us thinking about the United States, American Indians. All that stuff very complicated.

didn't lie. Let's say everything you found, even though we know you edited the video, and we know this because the BBC, Fox News and Washington Posts all said that. But even if the things that you had found had been there, it would have been a war crime. Why because in order to justify the exception to violating a hospital, you have to prove that it's an active terrorst center, which you didn't prove, even and what the fake evidence

you provide. The other thing is you have to use proportionality, no matter what or else, it's a war crime. You absolutely did not use proportionality when you killed hundreds of thousands of people. You executed them, you turned.

then we can add Lebanon and Beirut to that. Now in addition to people being killed in Syria by both the United States and Israel using the United States weapons most likely. But there are a couple points that I want to bring up there. If we go back in history, it's probably hundreds of thousands if we go back beyond October seventh, but the estimate is about one hundred and fifteen thousand people killed that including named and unnamed. Because

there's so many people beneath the rubble. They haven't been identified. They're just body parts. They don't even know who they are. It is just unbelievable what's going on. So Katie Helper, just a great, great job from Katie Helper. Excellent stuff, and I admire the fact that she calls these people out and she has such alacrity and facility with the facts to be able to remember all that stuff and hit that IDF guy to say, you know, you went into Al Shifa hospital and here is the actual standard,

and you didn't even reach that standard. But if we look at war crimes, we have to talk about proportionality. Even that you didn't use proportionality, you engage in war crimes. No way out for those people, absolutely no way out. The only way out, of course, is that the US government will just keep giving the weapons, which is exactly

what Benjamin Netnah who wants. That's I think why he's gonna have this so called ceasefire with Lebanon so they can concentrate until maybe sometime in the first week of January and clearing out as many of the people that they can in Gaza. It's just incredible to think. And then they've got the effrontery to say, well, why don't these other countries take the refugees? Are you from that

other country? Seriously you're gonna say that. Finally, let's take a quick look at something that's been revealed that I think is pretty darn valuable of two things. Actually, First, let's take a look at this one. This from Anya Powerple. She is Max Bloomenthal's wife. He from the Gray Zone. She has a lot of great journalism behind her in

a book about the United States involvement in Venezuela. This is a quote that she's pulled from Rabbi Shmooley, the also unctuous character in the United States, pushing for the United States to hand more weapons to Israel. She says, this is a quote from the rabbi. We forced Ben to fire her talking about Candice Owens, got her banned and demonetized from YouTube, banned from Australia. That is what Rabbi Schmolli is claiming. He's patting himself on the back.

And finally, I'd like to give you this. This is an image indicting himself on your dime. This is a United States soldier from the seveny twentieth Battalion firing at Palestinian homes in Gaza. Check this out. Calisi has this and he's celebrating who's victory. This is not a good harbinger for the future.

going on in Ukraine. You know, I don't know, it's just weird, peace loving people versus I don't know, crazy stuff, crazy stuff. But let's take a break, here's some good music, and come back and think about Thanksgiving, and think about the blessings that are out there and some of the principles that we already saw expressed through some of the folks who came over on the Mayflower and celebrated that

first Thanksgiving in the eyes of God. And in fact, let's get another wonderful musical piece from the David Night Show and David Knight's great talent as he reworked the Patriot and what a fantastic theme from John Williams, and of course the interpretation from David Knight on The David Knight.

movies are so so wonderful, so terrific stuff. And I want to thank a contributor for the David Knight program we already had. Carlos Rex and Mark Young contributed to the program over on Rockfinn. So thank you Mark. And look at some of the comments from people on Rock Finn. And want to welcome everybody who's watching. I'm Gardner Goldsmith filling in for David as he takes some time off

to be with the family for Thanksgiving. And I saw Michael Palm Roy said, good morning, Guard, and Dusty Milton said, good morning. Steve Swan horses in there, coming in from Maine. Nancy Chambers says Happy Thanksgiving Guard and all. Jason Barker course was in there earlier. Doug a lug inside, Rockvin and IRS machine gun Good morning, thank you Irs machine gun boy. What a great group of people. Wes Robertson. Yona Yonah is there saying Happy Thanksgiving. Octo Spook coming

in and I see IQ micro Dodd. Thank you very much for being there, everybody, and over at Rumble. Let's see what's going on over at Rumble and welcome you over there as well. Please share the videos, like and subscribe and all that stuff. Give it the thumbs up as often as you can. I want to thank twelfth of June seventeen seventy six. And oh hey, you know what, you're in a very good theme. You're in a very

good theme. U yes, quoting the Bible, for I have come to turn a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter in law against her mother in law. A man's enemies will be the members of his own household. Jesus yep. And we've got a quote that I'm going to bring up in fact as we introduce our next guest. Since it's Thanksgiving, I want to

do something right now. Bring in our guest, a man who was very courageous and really did a great job for many people in the military to try to make sure that they could find a way out of the job. He found a religious exemption, wrote about it, and after that, of course, has been part of the David Knight Audience. The family started Nights of the Storm with Angry Tiger has his own show called The Foxhoul. He is none other than Jason Barker. Hi Jason, and Happy Thanksgiving early buddy.

How are you.

thanksgiving and family and faith and things like that. Do you mind if I put up a Bible quote. You often do this on your program, and I thought.

holding that in my heart. It's hard to be thankful when you have anger and you know, as a Christian, the greatest thing I have to be thankful for is for the sacrifice that Christ made, and he did that to forgive me. So I think thanksgiving and forgiving go hand in hand. And if I could quote Matthew six verses fourteen and fifteen, for if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive

your trespasses. So I think it's critical that we have that spirit of forgiveness in us again. You got to hold people accountable. That's what you know with Trump. I'm not going to hold any hatred to Trump for what I went through in the military, because that was directly due to him. I'm not going to hold hatred for the military. And when I let that go, I could then be thankful for what the military has given to me and still continue, you know, have a retirement and

all that stuff. So, uh, you can't really see those things to be thankful for if you're holding hatred. Is one I'm trying to get at.

you know, doing something kind. So I was going up. I took little JJ up to the mailbox yesterday. He likes to ride in the wagon behind the mower, and we get about a quarter mile stretch of gravel road where all the mailboxes are. So as I'm coming back, uh, somebody had dropped off three little puppies, just abandoned them. Oh, and this was a pretty busy time. People were coming home from work and going out to dinner and stuff, so a lot of traffic right there, and people were

slowing down. It was all bottlenecked around this really dangerous kind of blind curve, so I couldn't really stop and get them at that time. And it just kind of dawned on me that, you know, people are busy with their time and they're not taking the time to do something kind. They just kind of went around the dogs and got out of there. Don't worry about it whatever. So I get the mower back to the house, I put JJ inside, I come out, and I'm walking down the road to try and get these dogs to follow

me well alone. And behold, my neighbor two houses down for me had picked them up and brought them to her house. As I was walking by, she's pulling them out of the truck and I said, oh, you found them. So she's like, yeah, I'm gonna see if I can find out who owns them or whatever. She only had two, and I said, you know there was three, right, So she said no, So she comes over to my house. I put them in my workshop where it's heated in there. Yeah, let them, you know, get him some water and stuff.

And she went back and got the third one, brought him back and then but the long story short, I made a better relationship with my neighbor's daughter. I know her now. Yeah, we worked together. We brought the puppies in. My grandson got to play with the puppies. So there's so many great rewards and actually spending your time doing something for someone else.

brother's junior. Five years my sister's junior, and they would let me tag along and they had some other There was another family who had kids that were sort of their age plus my age. So we would all be in this big group and they would let me, you know, do things with them sometimes, you know, go sledding and so on. And we would be around the house playing whiffle ball or softball or whatever, flashlight tag, you know, that sort of thing, and Missus Driscoll was always there.

We'd go into the house, she'd be giving us uh uh, spaghettios or apple pie or whatever it was, you know. And so we had gotten a call from her daughter because uh well actually we went down a little bit before that just to say hello. I said hello to mister Missus Driscoll, just to say hi, and he was going to go in for heart surgery and I didn't know that. I just went to say hello, and he had he was a great artist, mister Driscoll, and he

had done little cartoons of us as kids playing. And we had a dog named Snowball who was just a wonderful dog. She stayed by my side after I broke my arms sledding across the woods over streams over barberia fences and snowball fences. I had to go back through the woods. My dog stayed by my side the whole time. I thought I was going to get sick to my stomach, had to sit down on a stone wall. She was

there the whole time. Snowball, Snowball is in some of those little sketches running with us, and it was amazing. Mister Driscoll went in for the heart surgery, and unfortunately a number of probably about a month and a half later, he passed away. And so Missus Driscoll is by herself. They were in their nineties. They've been married for decades and decades and decades and decades, you know. And so I continued the contact with Missus Driscoll, and my sister's

down there right now bringing her some pumpkin bread. And you know, he was the guy. We went to his funeral, or to his memorial service at a local church, and they asked if anyone else wanted to get up and speak. And I had been in the in the audience, watching, and I thought about how mister Driscoll, when he knew that there was a new street being put in behind

their old farmhouse and so on and so forth. He knew that he could create a little path, and there were already some paths in the woods, some cow paths, old stone walls and things like that. He used his lawnmower to create a path between our house and their house because he knew there were going to be kids and we could start to play. So I said, I got up and I spoke and I said, you know, mister Driscoll was kind enough to use his lawnmower to

create a path on which we could walk. And I said, but mister Driscoll already knew that there was a path that Christ gave to us, and so he had already seen a path that had been laid out for him. And I don't know why the thought came to my mind, but what you're talking about of forgiveness, that's a major part of walking on that path, to be a to go along that route, to say God laid this path of peace out there for me, and if I keep walking this path, everything is going to be okay, because

it's not about the material world. It's about my salvation, my soul and trying to help others save their souls. So I think that's very interesting that you should bring up that quote and you should look at it that way.

It's also interesting, Jason, because you know, you were in the midst of a pretty heavy battle in the military to try to come up with a religious exemption against the JAB, and you could hold resentment for a lot of those folks, but you find the positives and being with your family, you're out of the military now and all these people that we've met because we've been associated with David Knight here, It's amazing, isn't it.

Some people was like, man, I wish I would have stuck it out, you know, especially when the mandate went away finally and they realized that they didn't have to get the jabs, and they all said that they don't work. We know it doesn't work, we know the mask doesn't work. But they went along to get along. So some people really held resentment towards me because I wasn't doing what they were forced to do. And you know, I empathize

with them. Now that I can forgive them, I can actually pray for them that you know, you know, they don't get sick, and you know, I don't want any hatred towards them whatsoever. And think about this when it comes to forgiveness. Think about how many families during this time of year won't get together because there's some kind of an issue between them.

Let's just put that stuff aside. Forgive them. Understand people, I don't know, you just don't let them live rent free in your heart because you're wasting your time and your time, as Tiger says, it's your most valuable asset, you.

is exactly right. And sometimes I've sort of traveled along those lines where I think about that and how important it is, and you think about, you know, your relationships with people, and if you can sort of step up and approach somebody and you don't even have to explicitly say I'm sorry for quite a while, you can just start talking to them and then you know, get comfortable with it and say hey, you know, months later you can even say hey, you know for a long time,

want to mention to you, I'm real sorry about that or whatever. Sometimes that's a more comfortable way to do it. Let's let's take a look at some of the comments from people. Jason inside Rumble Rock fin on X. I see that we have inside rumble Land, the fruit striped gum colors of Rumble watching the David Knight Show, and people are talking about Cuthulhu. Uh, but we have.

amongst other people, that's very very important. And it also allows you to feel like you've done the right thing for those other people as well. That's part of it in the eyes of others. And I think that was a great question from Matthew, and I'll you knowe.

You know, but once the war is over, it needs to be over.

maybe I can check out. It might have scrolled past that a little bit, but I also want to check out rock Finn and see what folks are saying on Rock Finn as well as I see Karen Carpenter, Thank you. Karen contributed to The David Night Show at ten dollars and I think that, you know, it's interesting, Jason, because as the holidays come around, people talk about celebrating Christmas. David Knight brought this up, and you know, Christmas is

even really on Christmas Day. It's based on a pagan holiday. You know, it has these pagan trappings and so on. And I've spoken with Tiger about this. As the descendant of Pagans from the Irish and maybe Germanic English, you know, I have to recognize that there are certain attributes to the ways that the Pagans operated in some cases in ancient Irish culture, the Brehon law in the tribal systems and the families, and the recognitions that are not alien

to peaceful coexistence, and that I admire. The fact that they were not Christians is something that I understand, and the fact that I can be a Christian and still recognize those traditions. I still celebrate Christmas at Christmas time, we still have a Christmas tree. I understand that, and hopefully I'm not doing something that is insulting God and insulting Christ by incorporation of that pagan style in the celebration of Christ's birth. What do you think about that?

you know, God rest her soul. She told me when I was very young that Christmas wasn't on Christmas days. And she had a very good logic behind it. She says, okay, so you got these baby animals in a manger, what time of what season are they born? So that would indicate maybe springtime or something, or you know, she she had a specific day in mind. And I've seen some

scientific evidence on it as well. When you talk about the wise men following the star, they actually now with three D modeling and you know the astrology thing, they can roll back time and they figured out I can't remember it was, it was a planet, I believe, is what they say. The star was that it rose and went down because of the movement of the planets, and they could they kind of pinpointed the exact day, or within a day or two of when they believe Christ

was born. But to me, that doesn't really matter. It's it's kind of like you should be you should be thankful every single day for Christ's sacrifice. You should reflect on it every single day. And if it's just one day, it's kind of like President's Day, just pick a day, right, Yeah, And I think that it's it is nice that it's still a tradition in our country, even though a lot

of people don't really understand what it's about. I think it's nice as a tradition that the entire nation kind of celebrates together.

with us. So he always was and always will be. He's you know, the idea that God is here with us right now as we speak, watching us and created us is incredibly important to remember. And yet I can keep it sort of at a low key level each day, And in a way it is a way to celebrate Christmas Day because every day Christ is there. He's eternal. So when we talk about the birth of Christ on earth, we have to remember that God is eternal in the first place. So why not eternally all the time? Remember

that and celebrate the existence of God every day. That's a very good point, Jason, That's an excellent point. What do you like to do? Oh? Sorry, go ahead.

the tree. We put the lights on it, and then we would take the popcorn and needle and thread and make the whatever, I don't know what you call it, whatever, the thing that goes around.

up in the spending time together. I know people don't do that anymore, but that whole season was about togetherness and family. And you know, again, we celebrate christ every single day, but that's there's a special time set aside where we do it as a nation and then we take some time off work and spend time with the family doing those activities. We have one of these trees now that you just snap it together and it's got the lights built in. I don't know, there's not really

a lot of fun in that, you know. So maybe when JJ gets older, we'll go traditional and I'll take him out in the woods and cut down a tree bring it home.

achievement of something for the family to do. What I'm a beautiful beautiful memories Jason, you know, just fantastic. And we used to do used to do the same thing. Some days the light would be failing. You just get there and you got to cut your tree down and you can't really see that well and you just get it as twilight is coming in. You tie it to the roof of the car and you're ready to go, or you put it in the trunk you have to

put the seat down and strap it all together. You know, you can smell the exhaust coming through the back of the car, that sort of thing. Everything's fine, you know. We had an old Volvo that actually had a hole in the in the floor underneath the underneath the gas pedal or the clutch that my mom had. We had to keep trying to close it up so the exhaust wouldn't come through from the old Volvo, you know, or water wouldn't splash up, you know. But it was fun.

It was so much fun. And for Thanksgiving? What are you planning for Thanksgiving?

the COVID kind of like shut everything down. Everyone's a shut in now, and I think that's by design to break our traditions and make us isolated. I just it hasn't been the same. We really need to get into that spirit of forgiveness and togetherness and and start, you know, and they're gonna they're gonna pull it again. That I mean if you take a look at Trump's I don't want to get too political, but a lot of Trump's picks, right his cabinet picks their pro vaccine, they're they're make

America healthy again. Is just going to be a beard to sell the vaccine because oh, you got to be healthy. We have to take this because I mean, look, jd Vance, he owns stock in a lot of the pharmaceuticals. Quite a few of his people own stock pharmaceuticals. Why would they shut down their their revenue, you know?

think that that caused me some problems as well. But then there's the added question of whether or not the actual mRNA, the so called vaccine, the JAB can be spread from person to person already through sweat or blood or milk or something like that to a person who didn't get injected, and so I've worried about that. I don't think that that happened to me. But with the self amplifying, that is a really strong possibility.

I got a document I'll be going over. They have known that those shed the actual vaccine onto people, and they considered it, again, not a bug, but a feature because people who didn't opt to get the vaccine are getting a little bit of the vaccine against their will, unknowingly, and they say that contributes to herd immunity. So I think that's what they're trying to do with this self amplifying. And what's really scary is they just last month approved it in Japan, so I know that people were up

in arms about it. There was a protest about it. Several doctors came out and said, hey, this is like the World War iie of medicine. You know it's going to be you know, ruined humanity, because I mean, just

because it's in Japan. How do I know that. I don't go to a restaurant and someone just came from Japan and it's not like you know, with the spike protein shedding, that's for like a couple of weeks after they were jabbed, right, shedding was an issue, And I have paperwork on that too, where they actually knew that and ran standards on researching how long the shedding would occur. But when you're talking about self amplifying, it's continuing to

make more. It's like you're continually getting boosted, so that two weeks is it's not two weeks, it's like forever. So if somebody comes into a restaurant and sits next to me in coughs or something, there's a good possibility that they could, you know, months after they were vaccinated, that they came from Japan, sat down whatever, they might get me vaccinated and even a little bit. It may

take some time, but it will exponentially grow. That's the theory. Anyway, I don't know, I got to look more into it that there's just not enough studies to see what it's going to do.

stuff for a long long time. Jason, let me ask you if you could recommend to people as we look at Thanksgiving and we think about gathering with friends and we look at the political world, finding that balance is key and taking some time to enjoy each other's company. You know, you mentioned your neighbor and the puppies, and you made me think about Glenn Jacobs. Glenn, you know, my friend who played Kine in the WWE. He has

a farm in Knox County in Tennessee. He's the mayor of Knox County and he has a barn that was an old horse barn that they've refurbished to allow to keep dogs. And they can hold up to thirteen dogs that are on the kill lists. They can bring them out of the shelters and he keeps them until they can be adopted. I don't know how much it must

cost for thirteen dogs. But let's finish off with some thoughts about keeping things local and your hopes for in addition to the communications that we get to have here on the internet, as I mentioned with Tiger ways, that we can talk to each other and our neighbors whether we go to church or whatever, and keep those contacts going with each other, because, as you say, COVID really

shot a lot of that down. And if we can inspire people and think about Thanksgiving and coming together as family, maybe we can think about coming together as localities with our neighbors.

conversation with them. And then you know other things like I take little JJ around the neighborhood and I try to do it when people are just getting home, like after we check the mail running around the neighborhood. It's not a very big neighborhood here, but I know people are getting there in their garage doing something. They just got home, and they'll wave just that being you know, I don't know, seeing each other, not being locked in

your house. Taking those opportunities, UK, you have to kind of make the opportunities and then you can stop and say hi and stuff. So I've gotten in the last several months, I've gotten to know quite a few of my neighbors and they've come over here to see what's going on with my workshop project and stuff. So, and then you start talking about gardening and things. Oh, I grow this over here, I'll grow this over here. I

do this. And then you start talking about, hey, maybe we could trade sometime, but you got to you gotta meet first. That's the key is you got to meet first, and you might have to make that opportunity to do that. You know.

I brought some food or whatever one time last year and I said, well, you know, you helped us out and I went and cleared some stuff out. She had lost her power, and I cleared some stuff out of her driveway last year and she goes, thanks a lot. I was like, hey, you know, you helped me when I was a kid. I want to help you, you know.

And I also want to acknowledge inside rockfin some great quotes from folks who said some wonderful things and talking about the season, and I think it'ssel House f House, and my eyes aren't right on it. We can learn from each other if we speak in kindness while trying to learn. I think that's well stated. And yeah, I think that a lot of people are going to hopefully learn from each other as time passes and we start to see some of the political world. But I'm going

to keep my mind on those personal connections. And Jason, I want to mention to you as I start feeling better. What I would like to do is be able to travel over and visit with you Tony Ardeburn and see David and his family, maybe visit with Glenn and Tennessee, and maybe have a spot where not a giant group of us, but a group that can make it that you know, it's within enough proximity that it's not too far.

We can get together and give each other high fives, and share a meal, and go for some walks and have some good times throwing rocks into some lakes and stuff like that. That'd be great, wouldn't that.

has a Facebook group. You know, join that, join the Facebook group and maybe do something like you're talking about setting up something to bring people out. You could do that. Maybe you can say, hey, let's have a neighborhood party at the local park. You know, make those opportunities, but use tech to your advantage. And I can give you

one story. There was one Thanksgiving, probably a decade ago or more, but my brother, he was deployed, and my mom lives up in Iowa, and his family went up to Iowa, and then we went up to Iowa and we sat around having Thanksgiving dinner, and my brother used technology to do a video call and we set the laptop at the end of the table and we ate and my brother was eating his army meal or Air

Force meal or whatever. So we were able to commune together and have Thanksgiving dinner even though he was in Afghanistan.

see you later. See in school that sort of thing. Saw my old friends from high school recently at our reunion, and it was so great to see them. And I'm going to actually start bringing some of them in to reminisce about some of the things as you and I have done in their lives that they did as kids. Some of the hominales we had, some of the unique things that they had someone in their family who was so nice. It gets us thinking about members of our

family too. And so in a way, as we sit down to Thanksgiving dinner with our family members or our friends tomorrow night, go to a church, visit with people, do something that maybe is a voluntary thing to help out some folks who might be having a hard time, we can think about also how in a way, opening this up to you and me right now, the people there were all sitting down at the table, We're sitting down with our friends and our spirits, our spirits are

together in this way, and it really is a blessing. Jason. I can't tell you how much I appreciate being in touch with you. You're one of the really really good guys out there, as David is, as Tiger is, so many of the people inside the chat, they're just there's so much fun. I see also inside a Syrean gol. Not to make the transition immediate, but a Seian girl is there inside rock Fin Karen Carpenter is there, Dougalug is there, Harps I think was there? A handy is there?

Not to put the HH next to each other. So I want to thank you Jason for what you've done. And we'll close off just any final sentiments about Thanksgiving just again.

the contributions. As we close off this month for the David Knight Show, I am going to go back to the Peanuts music actually and play that once more because it's so wonderful. And let's do that while I get a visit here in the studio from my co pilot, the Kittie Cat. She is wonderful. Well, think of Snoopy and the dog as I say hello to the cat to.

You can go to my substack and my fiction which is out there. You can check out my fiction available on Amazon. I've got three novellas that are out and I've got some short stories that are included in various anthologies and things like that for charity. So check it out. Just look up Gardner Goldsmith on Amazon. On you'll see Bite,

which is a vampire story. Has two short stories in a des a novella, Wall, which is about crypto archaeology, and these two professors in nineteen sixty three who try to sneak into China to prove that there was a Great Wall of China thousands of years before the original Great Wall of China and that it might have been built with human blood as part of the mortar. Very strange, mysterious.

And there's another story called Fishing, which is very dark, has a lot of violent scenes in it, but I think is one of the best written of the pieces that I put out there, and that deals with a homicidal maniac who escapes from a police prison transport van in nineteen early nineteen seventies Massachusetts and then is on the hunt for this young woman who was at one of the hippie communes where this killer and the young woman were both located. And so hopefully it's interesting, but

beware on fishing, which I do recommend. There is some violent stuff in there, so do be careful on that one. So thanks everybody again, check out the Substack, the Liberty Conspiracy Show at six o'clock, and don't forget to check out the Nights of the Storm for Jason and follow Jason at Real Jason Barker and his show The Foxhole as well. So great stuff from him. Really appreciate what he has done and what Tiger has done, and thank

you all for contributing and being here. I really appreciate everything that you've done here on the David Night Show. As we round off the month and we have Thanksgiving coming up, want to mention to folks that your contributions have been just incredible. Karen Carpenter ten dollars contribution, Mark Young ten dollars contribution, Carlos Rex five dollars over at Rockvin. Just fantastic stuff, and I see that great comments are still flowing throughout all the commentators and the fruits driped

gum colors of rumble. And so to close things off for the last forty minutes of the program, want to discuss some news. But also since we were just talking with Jason about Thanksgiving, I want to go to what I promised. This is a piece that I did for MRCTV a number of years ago on of course, the true history of Thanksgiving. And since I'm descended from one of the people who came over on the Mayflower, his name was Richard Gardner. As I mentioned, they founded the

town of Salem. They were one of the five families that founded Salem, Massachusetts. No, we had nothing to do with the witch hunts. They also were associated with some of the people who founded Peabody, which is right next to Salem. It's on the coastline of mass obviously, just north of Boston, and they came over and they founded Ploymouth Plantation. But what are some of the principles that we can derive from the first Thanksgiving and what led

to the first Thanksgiving? Not just the fact that they celebrated. What exactly were they celebrating during the first Thanksgiving? And how did the pilgrims get there? And what can that tell us? What Eke away lessons can we get from the very fact that the Pilgrims came here in the first place, and yes they did get along with the Indians, they didn't steal property. Here we go, let's check this out.

This is from a while back on Thanksgiving from me at MRCTV, but also moreover the great team on the production side of MRCTV. Hi, folks, I'm Gardner Goldsmith for MRCTV, and we're almost at Thanksgiving, that time when people get together with family and friends and celebrate a holiday that is deep within the American heritage. But unfortunately that holiday

has been mythologized by many government school teachers. So why not take this opportunity to go through the real facts about Thanksgiving and learn something important that the first Thanksgiving was celebrated not to thank the Indians for helping the Pilgrims, but in fact, it was celebrated to thank God for giving the Pilgrims the opportunity to change their course towards private property and prosperity away from communism. Hi. Everyone, Well it's a big day in America and I hope you're

going to be enjoying it with family and friends. I've got some information that perhaps you might want to share with them, a nice historical item for you, And it's all about the tradition of thanksgiving where it comes from. In fact, the real story of the Pilgrims starts in the sixteen hundreds when a group of Calvinists in England decided that they wanted to flee England and move to Holland to be living in a more free atmosphere for religion.

In fact, at the time England was torn asunder by battles between the Anglican Protestants and the Catholics, and the Puritans, who were Calvinists, decided they wanted to get away from it all. For ten years they lived in Holland, and in fact they did very well. Jobs were plentiful because Holland at that time had just gotten its freedom from Spain and was a free market nation. They welcomed people from all over the world, and they welcomed all sorts

of religions as well. Unfortunately, the Calvinist Puritans realized after about ten years that some of their children, they said, were picking up too many Dutch ways, so they decided that they would pick up sticks and move elsewhere. The only thing about it was that they didn't have enough money to travel to the New World. So here's our first lesson in the history of the Pilgrims. They were able to get sponsors, rich people to sponsor their trip. Indeed,

don't tax the rich everybody. They were able to get sponsors to come to the New World. Originally they were going to have two ships. One of the ships was not seaworthy, so they all piled into the mainflower and they set sail in the fall of sixteen twenty. They landed not were they expected to land, which was going to be Virginia, but instead on the coast of Massachusetts, where they established Plymouth Plantation in sixteen twenty. They also

established something that was a big mistake. They established communal property, and that led to terrible consequences. In fact, we can refer to Governor William Bradford's notes as to why they celebrated the first Thanksgiving and what happened when they established

their first political system communal property. The experience that was had in this common course and condition tried sundry years, and that amongst godly and sober men, may well evince the vanity of that conceit of Plato's and other ancients applauded by some of later times that the taking away of property and bringing in community into a commonwealth would make them happy and flourishing, as if they were wiser

than God. For this community, so far as it was, was found to breed much confusion and discontent, and retard much employment that would have been to their benefit and comfort. End quote. And that's just the start. Here's more of the lesson in William Bradford's own words. For the young men that were most able and fit for labor and service, did repine that they should spend their time and strength to work for other men's wives and children without any recompense.

The strong or man of parts had no more in division of victuals and clothes than he that was weak and not able to do a quarter the other could. This was thought in justice. The agent and graver men to be ranked and equalized in labour's and victuals, clothes, etc. With the meager and younger sort. Thought it some in

dignity and disrespect unto them. And for the feminists out there, William Bradford has some information for you on thanks Thanksgiving and for men's wives to be commanded to do service for other men, as dressing their meat, washing their clothes, etc. They deemed it a kind of slavery. Neither could many husbands well brook it upon the point all being to have a like and all to do alike. They thought themselves in the like condition, and one as good as another.

And so if it did not cut off those relations that God had set amongst men, yet it did at least much diminish and take off the mutual respects that should be preserved amongst men, and would have been worse if they had been men of another condition. Let none object this in men's corruption, and nothing to the course itself. I answer, Seeing all men have this corruption in them, God in his wisdom, saw another course fitter for them, And that course, ladies and gentlemen, was the establishment of

private property. Indeed, the Plymouth plantations saw starvation, sloth, and anger because they established communal property. But as William Bradford notes, they found another way. So they began to think how they might raise as much corn as they could and obtain a better crop than they had done, that they

might not still thus languish in misery. At length, after much debate of things, the governor with advice of the chiefest among them gave way that they should set corn every man for his own particular, and in that regard trust to themselves in all other things to go on in the general way as before, And so assigned to every family a parcel of land according to the proportion of their number, for that end only for present use, but made no division for inheritance, and ranged all boys

and youth under some family. This had very good success ess, for it made all hands very industrious, so as much more corn was planted than otherwise would have been by any means the governor or any other could use, and saved them a great deal of trouble and gave far better content. The women now went willingly into the field and took their little ones with them to set corn, which before would alleged weakness and inability, whom to have

compelled would have been thought great tyranny and oppression. Enough said, the first Thanksgiving was put together by the Pilgrims as a celebration to thank God for getting them away from collectivism.

They were able to prosper. Governor Bradford notes that they had all sorts of wonderful results, much more corn, much more food, and they were able to trade the surplus that the Pilgrims were able to gain because of their private property establishment is what led to them being able to invite the Indians to sit down to the first Thanksgiving. That's the lesson of Thanksgiving. Thanks so much for watching. Don't forget to like and subscribe. Well, I hope that

was all right, everybody. I think that was a little bit low on the volume there. I apologize. It's a tricky trying to manage the system there, and sometimes what I'll do is record something and then amp it up in the volume and so on. But I really appreciate what the MRCTV team did there getting the stock footage,

and that was wonderful. And hopefully I did a little something that allows maybe the spirits of my ancestors to smile and say, oh yay, you know, he's he's doing a little something in our memory there, and for the principle of it all as well. Now, I do have some different takes on Thanksgiving that you might enjoy as well. So let's take a spoof look at Thanksgiving. This is something that I actually produced for my radio show a

long time ago. This one is the government runs school version of the First Thanksgiving.

you the true meaning of Thanksgiving. When the Pilgrims of England landed on Plymouth Rocks, they tried to farm and raise prompts, but there was no government program to tell them how to do.

I believe someone in the chat mentioned social security being attacks. Well, let's talk a little bit about just that. How the government seems to during Thanksgiving, seems to want to communalize everything, and so we're gonna have a little theme. Right now, everybody, it's time for the best band that I know coming out of San Antonio, Texas to talk about social security and the ripoff of social secure. You already, oh my.

a fantastic band from San Antono. They are great. And now I want to give you the new fold to the giant Ponzi scheme that is still the legacy of the corrupt, deceptive, lying jerk mister FDR Yes social Security Benzinga reported this five days ago, and I wanted to bring it up to you today on the program. I was going to bring it up on Liberty Conspiracy last night, and I forgot. I finished off the program and I said, oh man, I got to make up for that. So

check this out, one and all. Here is the headline. See what you think about this House passes one hundred and ninety six billion Social Security bill. You know not the United States is in thirty six trillion in debt and accruing another trillion every hundred days. It says, will repealing pension reductions shorten the program's lifespan? What does that mean? Will repealing pension reductions shorten the program's lifespan? Well, it really doesn't have very much to do with anything. Here

here's the actual story. On November twelfth, the US House of Representatives past checked us out. The word fairness is in there, so you know, alarm bells might be going off. On November twelfth, the US House of Representatives passed the Social Security Fairness Act. Now, how is taking people's money, holding on to it, handing it to people today, and then promising other people's money to you fair. How is the taking in the first place fair? How do they

call it social security? Why don't they just call it socialism? I don't know. That's a pretty simple idea to me. Yes, it's a bipartisan bill, thank you, d's and ours, and it sets in motion an elimination of two long standing provisions that currently get this, according to Benzinga, reduced social security benefits for public sector employees. Oh that just well, it's fairness, of course. Here's the rub ay, there's the rub Shakespeare or Christopher Marlowe. If you look into it,

it looks like it was Christopher Marlowe. Yes, the public sector employees. Guess what, everybody, they didn't have to pay into social security on the large part for this chunk. This is extra money that they never even had taken from them. This is more redistribution of wealth for public government employees. Here it is. The legislation was first in introduced in twenty twenty three bipartisans, So you know, it's got to be wonderful and will now head to the

Senate from the House where it has strong bipartisan support. Shocker. If passed, it is estimated to cost one hundred and ninety six billion dollars over the next decade. Well, hey, that's a deal. It's a lot less than what they've been. If you estimate it out and you know, amortize it over ten years for Ukraine, there'd be a lot more than one hundred and sixty ninety six billion. There were There are one hundred and twenty billion right now. It's just over a couple of years. Maybe it's a deal.

Maybe we should go to Ukraine and get that. Critics worry that enacting this bill could further exacerbate social securities funding challenges. Oh, you mean taking more money from a system that's already bankrupt and bleeding off of people to pay for current recipients. Bleeding from people who are working now, the giant Ponzi scheme of Generation xers having to pay for the Baby boomers. Hey, how about not doing that? Could I be free?

nineteen eighty three that affect public sector workers. So what they're saying is, in nineteen eighty three, there were two key provisions added to Roosevelt's Social Security Act, and that this new Social Security Fairness Act addresses what has been a long standing problem since nineteen eighty three when they did this terrible thing to public sector workers. Again, Read that again. The bill addresses two key provisions added to the Social Security Act in nineteen eighty three that affect

public sector workers. Oh my, goodness, I sounded like the Starhustle their Jack Herkimer. They affect public sector workers. Oh my. If you look in the southwestern sky, you'll see public sector workers at twilight. Here it is. Check this out, the Windfall Elimination Provision Web. I wept myself. This rule reduces this is from nineteen eighty three. This is a problem, according to them, that they're addressing now with this New

Fairness Act. This nineteen eighty three rule reduces social security benefits for individuals who receive pensions from jobs where they didn't pay Social Security taxes. There it is, there it is. So the nineteen eighty three rule actually is a little closer to reality, which is, hey, you know what, if you were a government employee and you didn't have to pay into Social Security taxes, maybe you shouldn't be getting money from Social Security. Maybe. I don't know, call me nuts,

but that nineteen eighty three point seems kind of valid. Eh, well, this fixes it. You see. We need to take care of that because it's just not fair. See, we need to give them money because there it is. Yeah. And of course, according to the Congressional Research Service, only about two point one million people are affected by this provision. Yeah, because there are so many people who work for gobment. And there's more. The government pension offset, Yes, the government

pension offset. The GPO reduces Social Security benefits for spouses, widows and widowers who receive government pensions. Similar thing, but this is for the people, the people married to or related to the people who shouldn't have gotten the government money in the first place. Now, even if those original people are dead, well, their spouses can get the money that they actually never saw their spouse pay into Social Security, they'll be able to get the extra money. A happy Thanksgiving.

About seven hundred and forty five thousand individuals currently reduced benefits under this provision. Those in support of repealing these rules argue that they unfairly penalize retired teachers, police officers, firefighters, and other public servants. Their public servants, therefore they deserve of their servants. Oh wait, or were you their servant? I think it's the other way around, don't you. I think perhaps that you were their servant. Once they got

those jobs, you were the servant. You kept paying their salary whether you were satisfied or not. They eliminated your ability to actually have an equality control over any of these things. Did you ask for the firefighter protection?

and perhaps getting on the gravy train of corruption. Oh I don't know, maybe receiving half a million dollars for some organization you start and getting that money from Oh I don't know. Kamala Harris is residential campaign. Yes, there's a new story all about that. And it's fun. Here, it is here, It is everybody. Yes, if you want to know how to make Guard laugh, well, this might be one of the ways, as I feel it for David Knight, thanks for being here, everybody as we get

ready for Thanksgiving. And yes, John Denver, God rushed your soul, John Denver, here it is everybody. MSNBC was unaware, unaware. Gee, maybe MSNBC should definitely be broken off from its parent company. Was unaware that the Harris campaign gave five hundred thousand dollars to Al Sharpton's group ahead of a friendly interview. Now I know you're saying, wait, g man, Guard Al Sharpton's great, He's I mean, the whole Tawana Brawlly thing was so on above board, It was on the up

and up. You know, that was totally honest, and that's how Al Sharpton made his name.

Boston on a rail. It was just amazing. He was the emblem of the despicable, repulsive left wing Boston Globe newspaper. He was like the face of the Boston Globe. And of course then he was exposed for being complete, completely fraud. But there we have MSNBC. Now what's this about? Ah, there's al looking good, looking good there al well. MSNBC admitted it was unaware, and as I mentioned on Liberty

Conspiracy last night, they admitted that they were unaware. They admitted they were unaware that Vice President Kamala Harris the campaign paid a half a million dollars to Al Sharpton's National Action Network nonprofit ahead of a friendly interview with the Democrat nominee ahead of election day. These are the people who praised the government suppressing our ability just to

put out links on Twitter and Facebook. And they're paying Al Sharpton to work on their network and his nonprofit is getting half a million dollars from Kamala Harris's campaign. You can't make this stuff up. And they've got the gall on Morning Joe and MSNBC to talk about us who want to just express our ideas, people like doctor Campbell trying to get information out that it's healthy to suppress, yes,

our ability to communicate with each other. Well, they're glad handling and doing these backbroom deals to put out their theater. They're theatrics of politics on MSNBC. They've got George Stephanopolis working for ABC. He was working on the Bimbo eruption stuff with Hillary Clinton for Bill Clinton. They trot out on Cable News, they trod out John Brennan, James Clapper. These people are war criminals. They're just it's unbelievable. Barack Obama is a war criminal. Joe Biden is a war criminal.

Even as even Donald Trump engaged in extra judicial murder using drone strikes. And killing people without any declaration of war. Here's more, this is just wonderful. This is great. It was the National Action Network. It's a non p and Harris sat down for a friendly interview on October twentieth at with MSNBC's Al Sharpton, an open supporter of Harris and the Democrat Party, following Harris's loss to President elect Donald Trump. Who was the best loss? I really liked

that loss was wonderful. Federal Election Commission filings revealed the Harris campaign gave two two hundred and fifty thousand dollars donations to Sharpton's nonprofit organization in September and October. So remember the interview was on October twentieth, but these donations were at least one of them before the interview. But MSNBC, the MSNBC host, did not inform viewers of the contributions or the conflict of interest before or after the interview.

Here's a quote from an MSNBC spokesperson. MSNBC was unaware of the donations made to the National Action Network, they told the Free Beacon, which broke the story. The Freebeacon added that Sharpton did not inform network Brass that his nonprofit received money from the Harris campaign. MSNBC declined to say if Sharpton would face consequences, according to the report. MSNBC did not respond to multiple requests for additional comment from Fox News Digital. Sharpton appeared at NBC as recent

MSNBC as recently as Monday on Morning Joe. So they already they have this information and they're still bringing them out and they're not even asking them about it. It's comical. It's just out of control, crazy, holy molly, Oh my goodness, just nuts. Oh by the way, let's just remember a couple real quick things before we go. Donald Trump coming in seen as the big answer for so many people. Well, I mentioned this before the matter of immigration is popping up.

There's gonna be a big battle as the Dems and the Republicans on that political side they start to fight. I had a piece and a video that it did for m RCTV about Democrat governors and mayors, whether it's the governor of Massachusetts, Mar Healy, Kathy Hulkel, the governor of Illinois Pritzker, the governor of California, the mayor of Denver. Well, there's a big debate about immigration coming up everybody, and

in fact, let's hear a little theme for that. I like to play this because my sister hates this song.

We discussed this yesterday. The Article four, Section four of the Constitution does not allow the federal government to be sending troops in unless states ask for those troops to be coming in. And here we go. The Redwood City Council in California, voted four to three in favor of calling for staff to draft an ordinance for consideration that

would restrict the city from cooperating with immigration authorities. Council voted four to three in Redwood, California to direct staff to place an ordinance restricting the use of city resources YEP to cooperate with ICE on a future agenda in the first quarter of twenty twenty five. So that is in Redwood City, California. We know that Governor Newsom has

gotten his ags together. They haven't officially announced what they're going to do, but there are a lot of Democrats who actually are stumbling across the actual constitutional framework of states deciding for themselves what they're going to do for immigration. Again, the word immigration is not in the Constitution. But Tom Holman, who appears to be pretty well situated as coming in

as Donald Trump's big ice man. Tom Holman says he will jail a particular mayor for challenging Trump's deportation efforts. This is Denver. This is the one that I reported on from RCTV. Wrote this on Sunday, and it's getting more intense. In coming borders are Tom Holman zar maybe don't use that word. Maybe don't have the federal government handling immigration if you want to call yourself a constitutionalist out there, y'all right, says he's willing to throw Denver

Mayor Mike Johnston in jail over his protests about mass deportation. Ah, there's nothing like sounding like a bully. But look, me and the Denver mayor, we agree on one thing. Pronoun us. No, sorry, he's willing to go to jail. I'm willing to put him in jail because there's a statute. It's Title eight United States Code, thirteen twenty four, sub Section three, and what it says is it's a felony if you knowingly

harbor and conceal an illegal alien from immigration authorities. It's also a felony to impede a federal law enforcement officer. Holman told Sean Hannity, who obviously had that pin, so he's very patriotic on his lapel during an interview on Fox News last night. Wow, the breaking news of people who don't even pay attention to the Constitution and instead look at unconstitutional US Code, Because it would be nice if they actually bothered to read the Constitution. And you

can challenge. Anybody find the word immigration in constitutions not there. Naturalization is, but immigration is not. All. These people are playing in a completely fictitious, fraudulent world, and they're citing statutes that are unconstitutional, very clearly unconstitutional. And of course they're going to be breaching people's privacy, they're going to be taking away people's opportunities. And they would perhaps do

much better in decentralizing things. But there you go. Got to have central planning for everybody, you know, just like combating the virus, right, central planning. Everything's got to be done centrally. Donald Trump knows best, does he know best? Guess what you know?

So already the tariffs are going to be harming American consumers. It's a tax that will be passed on in most cases to the consumers. It protects specially favored businesses in the United States from foreign competition. Where do you draw the line to try to block competition against your favorite industry, against the essential versus non essential that Donald Trump will know choose through tariffs? Can you have a tariff from state to state? Oh? No? The founders, in their wisdom

at least said that's a bad idea. Or is it that you should protect local American businesses? Well, why not just make sure that you protect the local businesses in your town. Make it such that you can't import anything unless it's made inside your town. You can't buy anything unless it's made inside your town. You can't import anything made outside your town. What's going to happen to your costs and productivity? What are you going to start doing.

You're going to have to start devoting more time and energy to get the stuff that you could have gotten from somebody else who might have a natural advantage or some other advantage through technology that they've developed. Why not trade? Why not do what you do very well and let them do what they do very well and get the busy body middleman out of it from the government. That

might be a good idea. South. The South, the states of the South that fled the Norse in the so called Civil War, which was the war of Northern aggression against the South that just wanted to leave. They seemed to have a problem with the tariffs. And when people say, well, you know, nobody, even Thomas Jefferson, we balanced the budget and nobody had to see the tax man. So, in other words, they stopped excise taxes, but they still had tariffs,

excise taxes on products made in the United States. They didn't have an income tax. Under Jefferson. They balanced the budget, they brought things down on expenses. Okay, yep, but they

had tariffs. So Jefferson was wrong. Somebody did see the tax man, and the South they definitely recognized it by the time Abraham Lincoln was there, because they had gained the system of teriffts to favor northern industrial interests against the South, which wanted in many cases there wanted to buy materials from outside the US, but they had to favor the domestic makers the essentials, and the politicians decided so Donald Trump. This is a exactly what he's doing.

And he did the same thing with washing machine manufacturers and dishwashing manufacturers in Ohio and it was a disaster. Expenses went way way up for people buying those things. That's money that could be leveraged and used on other things in America. Why do you want to make it more expensive for people to get something that can help their lives and then they could save money and spend it on something else that could grow in the economy. Why do you have to decide with central planning what

is good or not good for us? Why can't we decide Donald the President. Claudia Shinebomb of Mexico suggested Tuesday that Mexico could retaliate with tariffs of its own after US President elect Donald Trump threatened to impose twenty five percent import duties on Mexican goods if the country doesn't stop the flow of drugs and migrants across the border. It's just amazing, amazing, she says. One teriff would be followed by another in response, and so on until we

put at risk common businesses. Shinbaum said, referring to US automakers that have plants on both sides of the border. The elites. They and you know, people seem to think that Donald Trump identifies with the average person. If he identified with the average person, he wouldn't play favorites with unions. He wouldn't impose his will over yours on what you can buy. He leave you alone. Yes, terrifts are allowed in the Constitution. But again, I'm an anarchist. I'm a voluntarist.

I want no human ruler over my neighbor. I don't want to impose my rule over somebody else. I go with the ancient Irish Brehon Losso system. I would prefer that, but I would at least go to the Constitution. But even there, please use your discretion. Donald recognis the economic fallacy that is the tariff. So I'll leave it at that.
