Wed Episode #2234: From War to Withdrawal: The Crisis Unfolds

Apr 1st, 2026 8:05 PM

──────────────────────────────────────── [00:00:59] Trump Announces He's Leaving the Strait of Hormuz to Iran — Declaring Victory While Running Away Trump told aides a mission to forcibly reopen the Strait would exceed his four-to-six week timeline, signaling he will exit the war while Iran retains control and begins collecting tolls — leaving the global energy crisis entirely unresolved. ──────────────────────────────────────── [00:02:52] France, Spain, and Italy All Blocking US Military Use of Their Territory for the Iran War Spain opposed the war on moral grounds, France blocked US military supply flights over its airspace, and Italy denied basing rights to US bombers — while Hegseth and Rubio publicly begged allies for help in a war the US chose and started. ──────────────────────────────────────── [00:21:30] Trump's "Victory": Iran's Navy Was Seven Frigates and Some Speedboats Trump claimed military success by destroying Iran's navy, which consisted of seven frigates and fast speedboats. Iran's missiles remain active, having forced the US to expend interceptor stockpiles defending against ongoing strikes. ──────────────────────────────────────── [00:43:58] Laura Ingraham Admits on Fox: 80% of EU's LNG Passes Through Strait — Only 2% of US Oil Does Even Fox News conceded that the US launched a war whose worst energy consequences fall almost entirely on European allies, who now receive lectures from Trump to "go get your own oil" after he shut down the waterway they depend on. ──────────────────────────────────────── [00:53:07] Trump Promised to Eliminate the $19 Trillion Debt in Eight Years — It Has Since Doubled Ten years ago Trump told the Washington Post he would eliminate the national debt fairly quickly. He is personally responsible for 27% of the now nearly $40 trillion debt, having added more than the total debt when he first made that promise. ──────────────────────────────────────── [00:59:32] Airlines in Crisis: Jet Fuel Has More Than Doubled — United Faces $11B Extra Cost on a $5B Best Year United, Delta, and American Airlines each report ~$400M in added fuel costs in March alone. SAS canceled 1,000 April flights. Analysts warn oil could hit $200 per barrel if the war extends into summer — a 40% probability scenario. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:06:03] If Trump Bombs Iran's Infrastructure on Exit, Iran Will Destroy All Gulf Oil States Iran has explicitly warned that any strike on its electricity infrastructure will trigger attacks on refineries, power plants, and desalination facilities across Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, and Kuwait — meaning Trump's "parting shot" threats would ignite the entire Gulf energy complex. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:21:29] Chicago Bulls Cut NBA Player Within an Hour of Him Publicly Opposing Pride Month Jaden Ivey was waived within an hour of posting Christian objections to Pride Month, labeled "detrimental to the team" — while NBA players convicted of assaults, DUIs, and gun charges routinely keep their positions. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:25:01] Canada Passes Bill Making Bible Quotation a Potential Hate Crime With Life Sentence Canada's House of Commons passed Bill C-9, removing religious exemptions and allowing life sentences for expressions deemed hateful — with a Liberal MP explicitly citing Leviticus, Deuteronomy, and Romans as constituting clear hatred. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:38:20] Supreme Court Strikes Down Conversion Therapy Bans 8-1 — Law Was Targeting Christian Counselors The Supreme Court ruled 8-1 that Colorado's conversion therapy ban violated the First Amendment. The case was brought by a Christian counselor prohibited from discussing faith with patients who specifically sought it. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:49:27] Israel Approves Settlement Destroying 11,000 Christian Homes Near Bethlehem Israel approved the Shtema settlement requiring destruction of 11,000 predominantly Christian homes near Bethlehem and the Shepherd's Field — effectively erasing the oldest continuous Christian community in the world. ──────────────────────────────────────── [02:02:07] Kristi Noem's Husband Caught Sending Cross-Dressing Photos to Online Contacts With $25K in Payments Daily Mail published verified photos of DHS Secretary Kristi Noem's husband Byron in women's clothing sent to online contacts, alongside at least $25,000 in payments — raising blackmail vulnerability concerns for the head of Homeland Security. ──────────────────────────────────────── Money should have intrinsic value AND transactional privacy: Go to https://davidknight.gold/ for great deals on physical gold/silver For 10% off Gerald Celente's prescient Trends Journal, go to https://trendsjournal.com/ and enter the code KNIGHT Find out more about the show and where you can watch it at TheDavidKnightShow.com If you would like to support the show and our family please consider subscribing monthly here: SubscribeStar https://www.subscribestar.com/the-david-knight-showOr you can send a donation throughMail: David Knight POB 994 Kodak, TN 37764Zelle: @DavidKnightShow@protonmail.comCash App at: $davidknightshowBTC to: bc1qkuec29hkuye4xse9unh7nptvu3y9qmv24vanh7Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-real-david-knight-show--5282736/support.

Tue Episode #2233: The AI That Bombed Iranian Schoolgirls Is Now Picking Who The IRS Audits

Mar 31st, 2026 7:03 PM

──────────────────────────────────────── [00:04:47] Palantir AI That Bombed Iranian Schoolgirls Now Picking IRS Audit Targets The same AI targeting system used in the Iran war — which selected a girls' school for a cruise missile strike killing ~160 children — has been contracted to select Americans for IRS audits and is already being used against Trump's political enemies. ──────────────────────────────────────── [00:08:26] Apple's iOS 26.4 Silently Installs Digital ID — Crippling Phones of Non-Compliant Users Apple quietly implemented mandatory digital ID verification without disclosing it in release notes, disabling phone functions for users whose documents don't meet Apple's standards. The child protection justification is described as cover for big tech's real goal: ending anonymity to monetize verified identity data. ──────────────────────────────────────── [00:18:04] WHO, Gates Foundation, and Pfizer-Tied Singapore Firm Rolling Out Global Vaccine Passports The WHO is partnering with a Singapore government firm that invested $250 million in BioNTech and the Gates Foundation to roll out "interoperable digital health wallets" — the ID2020 and IA2030 agenda now moving into live implementation as a global movement control infrastructure. ──────────────────────────────────────── [00:29:04] Trump Puts His Signature on Dollar Bills and Face on Gold Coins — First Sitting President Ever Trump is placing his signature on all future Federal Reserve notes beginning June 2026 and minting a dollar coin bearing his face — the first sitting president in US history to do either, timed to the 250th anniversary of a republic he is described as actively dismantling. ──────────────────────────────────────── [00:41:18] Trump Campaigned on Killing FISA — Now Backing Full Section 702 Reauthorization Despite running on an all-caps "Kill FISA" platform in 2024 and calling it illegally weaponized against him, Trump is now backing full reauthorization of Section 702 warrantless surveillance — described as simply wanting to be the one wielding the weapon rather than opposing the weapon itself. ──────────────────────────────────────── [00:49:19] Trump Pardoned Nursing Home Fraudster Who Paid $1M in Lobbying — Abuse Victims Got Nothing Trump granted a full pardon to a rabbi-owned nursing home operator convicted of a $39 million payroll tax scheme who served only three months. Patients were found with maggots in open wounds. Families are owed $19 million in court-awarded damages they have never collected. ──────────────────────────────────────── [00:53:45] Common Thread in Trump's Pardons: Crooked Rabbis — One Made US Ambassador to Hungary A pattern across Trump's clemency decisions shows multiple pardoned criminals are rabbis or Orthodox-connected, with one Medicare fraudster who stole $31 million pardoned and then appointed US Ambassador to Hungary — mirroring Jared Kushner's convicted felon father being made Ambassador to France. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:09:39] Lindsey Graham at Disney World with Fairy Wand While Pushing for Ground Troops in Iran While urging Trump to send American children to die in Iran, Graham was photographed at Disney World holding a bubble wand. Megan McCain called out the "single, childless septuagenarian" demanding other people's children go to war while he vacationed at a theme park. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:20:42] Trump's Only Options Are to Look Weak or Double Down Into Catastrophe A strategic breakdown concludes Trump can retreat and collapse the petrodollar, invade and face catastrophic losses, or bomb indefinitely to give Israel its Gaza-style destruction of the Gulf — with all three outcomes described as politically and economically disastrous for the United States. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:22:49] UN Diplomat Warns: Officials Are Casually Discussing Nuking Tehran's 10 Million People A UN diplomat has publicly warned that discussions about a nuclear strike on Tehran are occurring with alarming casualness, noting Tehran's population of 10 million exceeds the combined populations of Washington DC, London, Berlin, and Paris. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:24:19] Trump Confirms Secret $400M Military Bunker Under White House Ballroom — Price Has Doubled Trump confirmed the military is building a massive underground bunker beneath the White House ballroom with bulletproof glass and drone-proof ceilings. The price tag has doubled from $200M to $400M in nine months, framed as elites building personal survival infrastructure while driving the country into war. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:37:10] Texas Democrat Senate Winner Sells Abortion and Trans Ideology Wrapped in Seminary Credentials Talarico, who won the Texas Democratic Senate primary, is a Presbyterian seminarian who argues Mary's consent to Gabriel was a pro-choice template, denies Christ as the exclusive path to salvation, and supports transgender procedures for minors — described as a left-wing demagogue exploiting evangelical vocabulary. ──────────────────────────────────────── Money should have intrinsic value AND transactional privacy: Go to https://davidknight.gold/ for great deals on physical gold/silver For 10% off Gerald Celente's prescient Trends Journal, go to https://trendsjournal.com/ and enter the code KNIGHT Find out more about the show and where you can watch it at TheDavidKnightShow.com If you would like to support the show and our family please consider subscribing monthly here: SubscribeStar https://www.subscribestar.com/the-david-knight-showOr you can send a donation throughMail: David Knight POB 994 Kodak, TN 37764Zelle: @DavidKnightShow@protonmail.comCash App at: $davidknightshowBTC to: bc1qkuec29hkuye4xse9unh7nptvu3y9qmv24vanh7Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-real-david-knight-show--5282736/support.

Mon Episode #2232: Pentagon Stole Switzerland's Jet Money to Fund the Iran War

Mar 30th, 2026 6:03 PM

──────────────────────────────────────── [00:22:54] US Stole $126 Million from Switzerland's Fighter Jet Account Without Consent to Cover Iran War Missile Shortfalls The Pentagon redirected Swiss funds from a fighter jet purchase using a foreign military sales mechanism that allows reallocation without buyer permission — with Switzerland having already frozen payments after learning deliveries would be delayed 4-5 years, and having blocked US military flyover requests tied to Iran operations. ──────────────────────────────────────── [00:25:42] In 4 Days of War: 943 Patriots Fired — 18 Months of Global Production Gone, One-Third of THAAD Stockpile Consumed The US burned through 18 months of combined Lockheed and Boeing Patriot interceptor production in the first four days of the war, consumed roughly one-third of the entire THAAD stockpile, and fired 850-950 Tomahawk cruise missiles representing 15-17 years of production — at a cost exchange ratio of 114-to-1 in Iran's favor. ──────────────────────────────────────── [00:33:17] Trump Publicly Admitted to Saudi Donors He Doesn't Call It a War Because He'd Need Congressional Approval At a Friday investor summit, Trump openly stated he avoids the word "war" because it would require getting approval — then described Mohammed bin Salman as someone who now "has to kiss his ass" — confirming to the room that the constitutional war-making process was deliberately sidestepped. ──────────────────────────────────────── [00:39:52] Day 27 of the Iran War: Philippines Has 40 Days of Oil Left, Power Plant Strike Deadline Approaching A situational summary at day 27 of the war lists: Iran just struck Israeli nuclear facilities, Iran is demanding Strait of Hormuz sovereignty as a peace condition, the Philippines has only 40 days of oil left, a power plant strike deadline is approaching, and Trump's response at a donor summit was to invite questions about sex. ──────────────────────────────────────── [00:51:25] German Study: Zero Unvaccinated Children Died of Myocarditis — Every Child Death Was Vaccine-Related A large German population study of 84 million found that no healthy unvaccinated children died of myocarditis during the pandemic period — with every child myocarditis death linked exclusively to COVID vaccination. YouTube is actively removing accounts that reference the study, described as making the platform an accessory to ongoing harm. ──────────────────────────────────────── [00:55:43] Rothschild Bank Raided in Paris as Part of Epstein Probe — Epstein Openly Claimed to Represent Them French authorities raided the Paris offices of the Rothschild bank as part of an Epstein-linked corruption investigation. In a 2016 email to Palantir founder Peter Thiel, Epstein wrote that he represented the Rothschilds — and so did Wilbur Ross, Trump's first Commerce Secretary, who worked for the Rothschild bank for 24 years. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:01:37] Record 36 House Republicans Announce They Won't Seek Reelection — Exceeding the 2018 Wave Election Number A record 36 House Republicans have announced they will not run for reelection, surpassing the 34 who quit before the 2018 midterm wave that handed Democrats control of the House — with analysts warning this harbinger signals an even larger political reversal driven by the unpopular Iran war and economic deterioration. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:02:47] Millions Protest in 3,300 US Locations and Across Europe — Communist Groups Embed to Hijack the Movement An estimated 8-9 million Americans protested across 3,300 locations in all 50 states, with simultaneous protests in London, Rome, Paris, Madrid, Berlin, Amsterdam, and Sydney. Socialist and communist organizations distributed flyers explicitly calling for revolution and embedding within the broader demonstrations — a dynamic described as Trump handing the radical left its best recruitment tool in decades. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:13:29] The Most Powerful Energy Crisis in Human History Is Now Looming — Russia Oil Exports Also Halting Beyond the Strait of Hormuz closure, Russian oil exports are now also halting due to Ukrainian attacks, compounding the global supply collapse. Oil opened above $100 and Brent crude was tracking its largest monthly gain on record, with gold consolidating as sovereign nations across the Gulf liquidate holdings for emergency liquidity. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:22:31] Trump Is Driving America Into the Arms of Communists — The Radical Left Is Capitalizing on Legitimate Grievances The argument is made that Trump's unconstitutional war, economic destruction, and open corruption are handing self-described Marxists and socialists a mass recruitment opportunity by attaching their revolutionary message to millions of people with genuine economic grievances — while MAGA and Fox News dismiss all protest as AstroTurf. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:45:35] Trump's DOJ Is Still Enforcing Biden's Pistol Brace Rule — Which Trump Himself Introduced in December 2020 Gun Owners of America reveals that Trump's Justice Department is continuing to enforce the pistol brace rule that Trump himself introduced by executive order on December 18, 2020 — five days before removing it under pressure — establishing the precedent Biden later used, which Trump campaigned on repealing and has now chosen to continue enforcing. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:55:43] RFK Jr. and MAHA Have Not Banned the mRNA Shot — Trump's Bioweapon Betrayal Continues Despite the German study confirming vaccine-exclusive childhood myocarditis deaths, RFK Jr. and the Make America Healthy Again initiative have not moved to ban or withdraw mRNA injections — described as a fundamental betrayal of their stated mission and the millions who supported them specifically to end what is characterized as a still-active bioweapon program. ──────────────────────────────────────── Money should have intrinsic value AND transactional privacy: Go to https://davidknight.gold/ for great deals on physical gold/silver For 10% off Gerald Celente's prescient Trends Journal, go to https://trendsjournal.com/ and enter the code KNIGHT Find out more about the show and where you can watch it at TheDavidKnightShow.com If you would like to support the show and our family please consider subscribing monthly here: SubscribeStar https://www.subscribestar.com/the-david-knight-showOr you can send a donation throughMail: David Knight POB 994 Kodak, TN 37764Zelle: @DavidKnightShow@protonmail.comCash App at: $davidknightshowBTC to: bc1qkuec29hkuye4xse9unh7nptvu3y9qmv24vanh7Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-real-david-knight-show--5282736/support.

Fri Episode #2231: Trump's War Has Two Exits — Both Lead to Disaster

Mar 27th, 2026 5:53 PM

──────────────────────────────────────── [00:03:01] Trump Has No Good Options — Walking Away Collapses the Petrodollar, Escalating Means Mass Casualties A detailed breakdown of the war's dead ends: a retreat hands Iran control of the Gulf and destroys what remains of the petrodollar, while escalation through a Karg Island invasion risks catastrophic US casualties against an enemy that has already rendered 13 bases uninhabitable. ──────────────────────────────────────── [00:05:53] Iran Has Bombed Every US Base in the Middle East — Military Now Hiding in Hotels The New York Times confirms that all 13 US military bases across the Middle East are now virtually uninhabitable, with troops working remotely from hotels and civilian areas. Iran has accused the US of using civilians as human shields by dispersing personnel into populated areas. ──────────────────────────────────────── [00:20:31] Army Raises Draft Age to 42 — Former Israeli Defense Minister Calls for US to Seize Karg Island The US Army has raised its maximum enlistment age from 35 to 42 as a sign of manpower strain, while former Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Galant publicly calls for thousands of American troops to seize Karg Island — an operation his own analysis concedes would carry significant expected casualties. ──────────────────────────────────────── [00:22:09] BlackRock CEO Does a U-Turn — Now Warns of Multi-Year Recession if Oil Stays Above $100 Larry Fink, who weeks ago called the Iran war a good long-term investment opportunity, has reversed course and now warns oil could remain above $100 per barrel for years, potentially hitting $150 and triggering a stark and steep global recession — while the United Airlines CEO is planning for $175. ──────────────────────────────────────── [00:51:25] 36 States Have Laws Barring Criticism of Israel — US Soldier Investigated as National Security Threat for Anti-Israel Posts Glenn Greenwald details how 36 states legally prohibit government contractors from boycotting Israel — with no equivalent protection for any other country. A 20-year Army veteran is simultaneously revealed to be under investigation as a national security threat solely for anti-Israel social media posts. ──────────────────────────────────────── [00:53:08] Tennessee State Senator Threatens Jewish Reporter on Camera for Asking About Israel Lobbying Tennessee State Senator Paul Rose physically threatened a Jewish journalist from Tennessee Holler on camera after being asked why he was introducing legislation to ban the word "Palestine" and replace it with "Judea and Samaria" — a bill traced directly to an Israeli annexation advocacy organization. ──────────────────────────────────────── [00:59:04] UK Telegraph Scrubs Article on Christian Village's Ties to Hezbollah Under Pressure The Telegraph removed an article describing how a 6,000-strong Catholic Lebanese village formed strong bonds with Hezbollah after the group defended them from ISIS, provided medical care, electricity, and Christmas trees — with the deletion occurring the same day Israel announced plans to occupy southern Lebanon. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:01:49] Greater Israel Map: Israeli Soldier's Badge Shows Territory Spanning from Nile to Euphrates — 25x Current Size A detailed breakdown of the Greater Israel doctrine reveals an Israeli soldier's badge depicting a nation stretching from Egypt's Nile to Iraq's Euphrates — 25 times Israel's current territory, encompassing parts of seven sovereign nations where 120 million people live, with Finance Minister Smotrich caught on tape directing annexation without calling it annexation. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:18:43] Constitutional Scholar: Iran War Is Flatly Unconstitutional — War Powers Act Itself Has No Basis in the Constitution John Birch Society editor Gary Benoit argues that Article I, Section 8 assigns war-making power exclusively to Congress, that the War Powers Act is itself unconstitutional, and that the "gang of eight" briefing Rubio gave has no constitutional basis — with both House and Senate having voted to abdicate their war authority. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:26:20] AI Combined With NSA's Decades of Stored Data Now Enables Total Surveillance Retroactively NSA whistleblower William Binney's warning — that the agency was saving everything on everyone while waiting for computing power to analyze it — is presented as now fully realized, with AI providing the retroactive collation capability Binney warned about, timed precisely with the Blackburn AI bill centralizing control in Washington. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:29:32] ICE Given Absolute Immunity — The Same Template Used to Bypass Accountability During COVID The grant of absolute immunity to ICE agents is mapped directly onto the COVID-era template of using emergency declarations to bypass constitutional constraints, with each new emergency — public health, immigration, war — ratcheting the police state further while the Overton window shifts to normalize it. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:42:04] 1913: Progressive Income Tax, Federal Reserve, and Direct Senate Elections — Three Communist Manifesto Planks in One Year The argument is made that 1913 was the pivotal year the US became structurally communist, with the 16th Amendment, Federal Reserve, and 17th Amendment all derived from Marx's Communist Manifesto — with the 17th Amendment specifically destroying the constitutional firewall between state and federal power by eliminating state representation in the Senate. ──────────────────────────────────────── Money should have intrinsic value AND transactional privacy: Go to https://davidknight.gold/ for great deals on physical gold/silver For 10% off Gerald Celente's prescient Trends Journal, go to https://trendsjournal.com/ and enter the code KNIGHT Find out more about the show and where you can watch it at TheDavidKnightShow.com If you would like to support the show and our family please consider subscribing monthly here: SubscribeStar https://www.subscribestar.com/the-david-knight-showOr you can send a donation throughMail: David Knight POB 994 Kodak, TN 37764Zelle: @DavidKnightShow@protonmail.comCash App at: $davidknightshowBTC to: bc1qkuec29hkuye4xse9unh7nptvu3y9qmv24vanh7Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-real-david-knight-show--5282736/support.

Interview: 1913: The Year Communists Stole America

Mar 27th, 2026 5:49 PM

Gary Benoit, editor-in-chief of The New American and nearly 50-year veteran of the John Birch Society, makes the case that everything unfolding today — the unconstitutional Iran war, the federal AI power grab, the surveillance state, and the collapsing dollar — was mapped out and warned about by Robert Welch back in 1958. Benoit walks through how three hammer blows in 1913 alone — the progressive income tax, the Federal Reserve, and direct election of senators — were literal planks from the Communist Manifesto, and argues the United States was already 20% communist before most Americans were born.Money should have intrinsic value AND transactional privacy: Go to https://davidknight.gold/ for great deals on physical gold/silver For 10% off Gerald Celente's prescient Trends Journal, go to https://trendsjournal.com/ and enter the code KNIGHT Find out more about the show and where you can watch it at TheDavidKnightShow.com If you would like to support the show and our family please consider subscribing monthly here: SubscribeStar https://www.subscribestar.com/the-david-knight-showOr you can send a donation throughMail: David Knight POB 994 Kodak, TN 37764Zelle: @DavidKnightShow@protonmail.comCash App at: $davidknightshowBTC to: bc1qkuec29hkuye4xse9unh7nptvu3y9qmv24vanh7Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-real-david-knight-show--5282736/support.
