On today's show, we have a special guest, Joel Skousen of World Affairs Briefing. He is a journalist, writer, and podcaster. He's been around a long time and has been around the business for a lot longer than that. In this episode, he tells us about the dangers of government spying on us, and how we can protect ourselves from it.
00:00:18.000And have you had to fill it out too, sir?
00:00:22.000Uh, well, I have refused to fill it out.
00:00:25.000Uh, I don't believe that it is constitutionally authorized.
00:00:29.000For the Census Department to ask the kinds of intrusive questions that they do on the American Community Survey, and I encourage everyone else to refuse to fill it out.
00:00:39.000Now, they will say that there's all kinds of penalties, but they are extremely reluctant ever to prosecute it, because if they got into court, it'd be very difficult for them, if not impossible, to justify doing so.
00:00:52.000So they will rant and rave, but you can be pretty well assured that nothing will happen if you refuse to fill it out.
00:01:00.000Yeah, I mean, these censuses are getting more and more invasive, you know.
00:01:04.000It's a legal requirement to say how many people live in your house, that's it.
00:01:09.000In Britain now, they're, even ten years ago, were about to have another census next year.
00:01:14.000They were asking people what time they left for work, what were their interests, you know, deep personal questions, and it's none of their business.
00:01:22.000Mark in Florida, final caller for Joel Skousen.
00:01:26.000Hey, Jules, I just wondered, do you know of any service provided by a government employee that is not delivered under threats of violence and at the barrel of a gun?
00:01:41.000Well, there are services, there are not requirements that are not backed up by the threat of a gun, but there are services that are yielded that I mean, for example, you're not required to receive or take your social security check, you're not required to take a welfare payment.
00:01:57.000But anything that does have a requirement to it is backed up by the barrel of a gun.
00:04:30.000But there's the real world that Gerald Cilente covers, then there's the delusional world telling us that in June of last year the recession ended.
00:04:39.000But every real economic indicator is we're in deep trouble and They announced in the Wall Street Journal two days ago record profits, even above the profits in 2008.
00:04:50.000The profits in 2009 and going into this year are even bigger for Wall Street.
00:04:56.000And so we're going to talk to Gerald Cilente about WikiLeaks, about the economy, about what he sees in 2011.
00:05:04.000It's probably our last interview with him this year.
00:05:06.000And he's with us for the rest of the hour.
00:05:10.000Founder of the Trends Research Institute, TrendsResearch.com.
00:06:46.000And by the way, they also know that an education is a degree in worthlessness these days, because it doesn't mean you're going to get a job.
00:06:55.000So if people want to look at something really hot going on, stay with that story and stay with this.
00:07:01.000They took it out of the British news like that.
00:07:05.000It was wiped out of the news, of the off-with-their-heads news, the day it happened.
00:07:11.000So this is something really to focus in on.
00:07:15.000Absolutely. Spontaneous rage and anger.
00:07:18.000When we come back, Let's talk about Ireland.
00:07:22.000It's admitted that the people don't owe the money.
00:07:25.000It's the offshore banks that owe the money.
00:07:28.000And as soon as they entered the EU, which is an admitted receivership takeover system, as soon as they were under that contractually, then they tell them, oh, your economy's over.
00:07:38.000We've got to raise your taxes, cut all your benefits.
00:07:41.000And the head of their private central bank even told the BBC that it's good to have foreigners own your country.
00:07:49.000I mean, these are just such brazen, and I've got another Republican congressperson today in the news saying, Congress exists to serve the banks.
00:08:46.000Folks, you've heard us talk about Home Gain before.
00:08:50.000Home Gain is now offering a special promo where you get up to $150 when you buy or sell a home with a Home Gain agent you find through their Find a Realtor program.
00:09:00.000HomeGain lets you compare realtors anonymously.
00:11:29.000And right now in Washington DC, we have seen A Fall of the Republic.
00:11:34.000Get your copy of Fall of the Republic on DVD at InfoWars.com or watch it online right now in super high quality at PrisonPlanet.tv.
00:11:46.000The Genesis Communications Radio Network proudly presents The Alex Jones Show.
00:11:52.000Because there's a war on for your mind.
00:11:54.000Another issue we're going to be trying to...
00:12:00.000We're tracking with Gerald Salente is the increased crime we're seeing, and the government's been caught trying to spin those numbers as well.
00:12:08.000We're seeing big calls for internet censorship.
00:12:10.000Google was in the Wall Street Journal two days ago.
00:12:13.000They had a big report where they're being caught not just censoring alternative news, but also their competition.
00:12:19.000Google really needs to be replaced like Myspace or other things that become draconian.
00:13:28.000Two weeks ago, not this past Sunday, but the Sunday before, the New York Times, the toilet paper of record, wrote a feature story in the magazine section on America's least hated banker, Jamie Dimon, the CEO of JPMorgan Chase.
00:13:48.000The guy, as you're reading this story, this puff piece, all the way into it, he said, oh, by the way, my mommy and daddy are my mommy's good friends with the Diamond family.
00:14:45.000Look how those brave bobbies beat up all those students.
00:14:51.000Did you see the one from the BBC where they grabbed this guy out of a wheelchair and dragged him across the pavement?
00:15:01.000And this disgusting interviewer on the BBC is saying to the guy, you gotta see it, well, they said that you were rolling at them, the police.
00:15:14.000And if you think the media in this country is servile, you gotta look at theirs.
00:15:32.000It's going to be a cyber war, and it's going to be the real war.
00:15:36.000It's going to be the government crackdowns and the people trying to rise up.
00:15:42.000It's no different than any other revolution.
00:15:44.000You know, I'm glad you raised that issue, because I want to discuss what you see happening in the next year, what's going to happen in the economy, but also the government and the Fortune 100 response to it, but also what you expect to see the population do.
00:15:58.000But I make these hardcore Scathing videos about the banking system, about the telescreens going in Walmart, telling citizens to spy on each other and spy on other shoppers.
00:16:12.000I mean, it's right out of 1984, and if you click on the YouTube like or dislike, depending on the video, it'll be 3,000 likes next to 50-something or 100-something dislikes.
00:16:25.000I mean, it's literally 95% of people uh...
00:16:29.000agree with me and disagree with the government then if you go to the homeland security uh...
00:16:37.000official webpage per video it will be thousands of dislikes and every comment hating them and saying we know you're the terrorist we know you're staging the events why don't you report on yourselves and almost no one liking in fact there it is on screen of one of my videos uh...
00:16:56.000with close to three hundred thousand views The title of the video, if folks want to go look at it, is Walmart Invasion, Part of Larger DHS Takeover of America.
00:17:12.000Now, again, you go over to the Homeland Security website, and it's the flip of that, and you read the comments, everyone gets it.
00:17:23.000You know they're saying you want us to not trust each other you want us to spy this is like Nazi Germany or East Germany or Russia Hey, I want to report on Chertoff ordering the naked body scanners, and then making money off of them I mean every I mean people are really getting educated.
00:17:38.000There's an explosive awakening happening and they are saying Off with their heads.
00:17:44.000I'm concerned, though, and I've seen the government provocateur to try to start something violent so they have a pretext to clamp down.
00:17:51.000But I want to warn the government, this could backfire on you trying to start a fight or staging terror attacks like a new Oklahoma City to blame it on the Liberty Movement.
00:18:01.000Your comment on the awakening, when you see it really going to flashpoint, and how you see the establishment countering us, Gerald Cilente?
00:18:09.000You know my saying is a Bronx boy when people lose everything and they have nothing left to lose They lose it and they're losing it because they're losing their homes.
00:18:21.000They're losing their jobs these guys these People getting, and women getting out of college, again with these degrees and worthlessness, they can't find jobs.
00:18:42.000It's going to happen when people finally wake up to the reality that the dollar isn't going to be worth a dime.
00:18:51.000That all they've saved, they've saved for nothing.
00:18:55.000They find out that they're rich, as we've seen, and I love it now, now that it's, I've been saying this, I don't know how many years, that the gap between the rich and the poor is the widest in the U.S. than any of the industrialized nations.
00:19:10.000Now, just now, mainstream media is finally saying that.
00:19:15.000So as they see the richer get richer, And them getting poorer, what do they have to lose by taking to the streets?
00:19:24.000Nothing. So what we're going to look at, here's, I want to make this clear also.
00:19:32.000It's in the Trends Journal, it was a top trend that came out last December, a year ago.
00:19:38.000What we made it, we made it perfectly clear would not be an equity market crash because it was a rigged market.
00:19:44.000And it was going to be cheap interest rates that keep floating this.
00:19:48.000And we also said there would be schemes undreamed of that would keep propping it up.
00:19:54.000And we saw this scheme that just came out as a result of the Dodd-Frank bill that the Federal Reserve has dealt, loaned, and under the table dealt over 13 trillion dollars all over the world to all different kinds of companies.
00:20:13.000General Electric, Harley-Davidson, McDonald's, Credit Suisse, Deutsche Bank, the Tokyo Banks, Bank of England.
00:20:21.000It's what the con game is that they're conning us with the bank deals.
00:20:27.000So yeah, they're propping it up, but what we're saying is that it's collapsed.
00:20:32.000And people, the headline story, Alex, for the Trends Journal's top trends that are coming out in a few weeks for 2011, Is wake up call 2011.
00:20:44.000Only the blind, the inept, the ideologically driven and little kids aren't going to know the deal.
00:21:22.000The Germans are going to go off on their own.
00:21:25.000There's going to be a global currency crisis that's happening in front of us.
00:21:30.000Why do you think People, why can't they wake up and see why gold is trading at $1,400 an ounce?
00:21:41.000There is no end in sight, but the end will come when the markets collapse, and we believe that there's going to be a global financial crisis, a crack-up in 2011,
00:21:58.000That people will no longer be able to deny, and the world banks will no longer be able to cover up by printing more of their digital money that's not worth the paper it's not printed on.
00:22:13.000Well, Gerald, we know that the mega central banks have wanted to consolidate power, but now they're getting desperate.
00:22:20.000They realize they've destroyed things so bad, they're finally actually trying to cut Taxes, but it looks like too little too late, but here's the model Here is the Ireland banks are all for sale central banker This is out of CNBC and he went on to say they are for sale as far as I'm concerned I've always been an advocate for foreign banks to own small countries And he goes on here.
00:26:29.000And right now in Washington, D.C., we have seen a fall of the Republic.
00:26:34.000Get your copy of Fall of the Republic on DVD at InfoWars.com or watch it online right now in super high quality at PrisonPlanet.tv Calling all manufacturers from across the United States.
00:26:49.000Are you eager to have people buy your products right here at home instead of having them buy competing products made on the other side of the world?
00:26:55.000Do you want to build your business while helping boost our nation's economy at the same time?
00:26:59.000Then LocalMakers.com is the website for you.
00:27:02.000Our site provides an easy way for manufacturers to connect with customers within their local community as well as across the United States.
00:27:09.000From the small manufacturer who works out of their home to the large manufacturers across the U.S. We're good to
00:28:29.000They are trying to pass the carbon tax to taxes on carbon dioxide and JPMorgan Chase, Goldman Sachs literally are the main funders.
00:28:36.000So I guess the air is theirs because they waddle around and tell us what to do.
00:28:41.000But as you said, everybody's starting to wake up to them.
00:28:44.000But what about When you look at Ireland, cutting the benefits that are paid for, raising the taxes, admitting everything goes to the bankers, what is this hubris, this arrogance?
00:28:56.000Why are they so, like Maria Antoinette saying, let them eat cake?
00:29:00.000I mean, is there a method to their madness?
00:29:03.000No, they're out of touch, and they should be.
00:29:06.000They live lives that are far, you know, more protected than us.
00:29:12.000Every time they arrive anywhere, they roll out the red carpet.
00:30:15.000Look, Alex, what happened in England, as we're seeing the same thing now happening, where they're promoting, you know, the next royal wedding, As they're making it impossible for kids to go to college.
00:31:04.000Orders are, don't touch the top criminals.
00:31:06.000Have you seen anybody go to jail from any of the big banks, the Lehman Brothers, the Merrill Lynch mob, the Goldman Sachs gang?
00:31:17.000No, they've been burning little bitty low level guys in million dollar deals, trillion dollar swindles, and they just roll the red carpet out and Congress just grovels when they see Greenspan.
00:31:28.000They just fall to their knees and go, my lord, my king, rape me!
00:31:34.000So the cops have the hit they get that you don't touch the big guys They got the audience and they can't beat the crime guys on the street You know, the Bloods and the Crips and the rest of them, which is a growing organization, that's an industry that's thriving.
00:31:55.000I've seen old ladies pulled over in Austin with cops walking up with their hands on their guns, with two old women in a convertible, you know, Seabreeze car or whatever.
00:32:04.000But then when they see real criminals, they just seem to grovel in fear.

00:36:47.000from enemies foreign and domestic, it's Alex Jones.
00:37:37.000Alabama Republican Spencer Baucus, the incoming chairman of the House Banking Committee, suggests Congress And federal regulators should play a subservient role with banks.
00:37:50.000Remember a year ago, Greenspan, the former chairman of the Fed, on PBS saying, we're outside government, we run the government, no one can regulate us.
00:37:59.000I mean, this is just made up pure arrogance.
00:38:01.000No wonder we're being completely robbed by these people.
00:38:06.000It's we the people, and the Congress controls that.
00:38:08.000Just because some monkey tells us in a fancy suit that he rules us, Or because some monkey government tells us men in uniforms are going to stick their hands down our pants, doesn't mean they can do it!
00:38:22.000Here's the quote from Spencer Bacchus.
00:38:25.000In Washington, the view is that banks are to be regulated, and my view is that Washington and the regulators are there to serve the banks.
00:38:34.000Well, yeah, most of them are former Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan people.
00:38:47.000Okay, well, Congress isn't involved with the banks or doesn't have any power over them, then we shouldn't have to pay them all this bailout money.
00:38:55.000Well, I think the congressman is expressing his feelings about the type of person he is and the rest of the most of Congress, with the exception of Ron Paul and a few others.
00:41:02.000What I was saying is this isn't about who leaked what and how.
00:41:07.000They're upset because it's uncovering what a bunch of losers they are.
00:41:12.000I want to get this into everybody's minds so you don't let go of it.
00:41:17.000The same people that they call diplomats, ambassadors, your senators, your congressmen, your legislators, your presidents, your mayors, these are the same people you couldn't stand in high school and college that wanted to become the class presidents and the head of the student council.
00:41:40.000What WikiLeaks is showing is that's exactly who they are.
00:41:46.000They're the inept and the incompetent They're doing dirty deals, and it's being uncovered, and they're going ballistic.
00:41:55.000Because that's the only thing that's holding it together.
00:42:05.000How disgusting does it have to become when Obama walks on the stage and gives it to Slick Willy to jam legislation down the throats Of everybody.
00:46:50.000They make fun of other TSA workers, genitals, female workers.
00:46:54.000They're hiring a bunch of lunatics because only a mentally ill person Could put people in radiation bathers, stick their hands down people's pants.
00:47:03.000They're creating an army who will follow any order to then take over the streets.
00:47:08.000But here's the PrisonPlanet.com, Steve Watson article, just went up at PrisonPlanet.com.
00:47:14.000Boy asked TSA, why pat down my mom and not me?
00:47:19.000TSA replies, and they have witnesses, because you don't have B-word.
00:47:26.000And Uh, and I've seen this, where they see a good-looking woman, it is over.
00:47:32.000These are men that could never get a woman, many of them.
00:47:34.000Some of them are just guys that want jobs.
00:47:36.000And they've been caught being child molesters, uh, planting drugs on women, demanding sex.
00:47:41.000I mean, these are the worst type of power-tripping, low-grade morons.
00:47:46.000What is your take on the whole TSA situation, General Cilente?
00:47:49.000Well, first of all, I want to thank you for doing all that you have done to expose this.
00:47:56.000Nobody in the United States anywhere has done more to show what's going on than you have about breaking it down piece by piece from that little weasel shirt off the former Homeland Security czar going out after the so-called Christmas tree,
00:48:17.000Christmas Day bomber was going to explode his underwear and making the rounds on the major media And telling us that we needed these full-body x-ray machines, not ever, ever divulging that Chertoff Group was the consulting firm for Rapid Scam that sells these things.
00:48:41.000So you've done more than anybody, and what this is so important about, it's one of those elements in the coming Second American Revolution.
00:48:51.000Because we know we're getting robbed by the bankers.
00:48:54.000A lot of us know that these wars are immoral, and that we're wasting trillions of dollars fighting them, and it comes out of our paychecks.
00:49:07.000But when you go to the airport and you're humiliated in front of huge crowds, it's a different story.
00:49:16.000When you go to the airport and you're subjugated to such behavior, and it's really from a man's standpoint or a woman's, there's nothing more to subjugate somebody than to tell them that I could grope you and fill you up and do whatever I want to.
00:49:43.000I mean, the goons doing it don't know why they're doing it.
00:49:47.000But the social engineers know this is an act of submission.
00:49:50.000This is learning how to be a prisoner.
00:49:53.000I mean, I haven't been in jail a lot, but I was in juvenile a couple times for really, you know, fights where they didn't know who started it.
00:51:35.000There is nothing more in your face arrogance.
00:51:40.000He put, for those that don't know, he put a law in place to throw the book at people that, you know, visit hookers.
00:51:46.000And I'm not condoning it, but I mean, come on.
00:51:49.000You know, increasing the law on something non-violent and consensual.
00:51:53.000Then he gets busted, and now he gets a TV show.
00:51:56.000Exactly. And not only does he get busted and have a TV show, he spends thousands on hookers, and he doesn't, he's not prosecuted for the crime that he put in place.
00:52:09.000There is, you know what the word justice means?
00:53:37.000And by the way, one of the other trends that we're writing about, that you're on the forefront of, is journalism 2.0.
00:53:46.000What you do, what we do at the Trends Journal, this is the new journalism that people are going to be tuned into, rather than watching these shills and suck-ups on these shows from mainstream media.
00:54:02.000And now the fight is going to be between closing down the internet, as you keep pointing out, or letting freedom ring.
00:54:13.000So those, and this whole citizen journalism is going to be a huge trend because just as they're watching us, now we're watching them.
00:54:24.000People have their cell phone cameras, people are taking videos and recording things that they never wanted exposed before.
00:54:33.000That's why they're pushing so much now in 9,000 locations to get us to spy on each other because they don't want us to Exactly, and that's what the WikiLeaks is about.
00:54:57.000Sarkozy, Merkel, Berlusconi, Obama, You go down the line, all of those stands, Turkmenistan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, one stand criminal after another.
00:55:12.000You read this stuff, you can't make it up.
00:56:17.000And as we're seeing with these WikiLeaks, another one.
00:56:20.000The so-called UN nuclear arms inspectors caught on tape Being reported from the U.S. Embassy that he's partial to the United States and he doesn't like the Iranians.
00:56:40.000Wow. Gerald, we've only got about a minute left.
00:56:43.000The websites are InfoWars.com, PrisonPlanet.com.
