00:00:09.000 They think we ought to know You found it

00:00:14.000 The tip of the spear.

00:00:16.000 It is the Alex Jones Show with David Knight.

00:00:19.000 Welcome on this December the 23rd 2018 I'm David Knight your host.

00:00:29.000 Well, we've had some updates to the big stories that started hitting at the end of the week.

00:00:33.000 And of course, it's at this time of year that a lot of very important things can happen.

00:00:38.000 You know, it was 105 years ago on Friday, as I covered on Friday, that the Federal Reserve was created.

00:00:43.000 And now we have President Trump saying many reports that he wanted to fire the chair of the Fed.

00:00:52.000 Now you've got Steve Mnuchin, the Goldman Sachs banker, who's his Treasury Secretary, coming back and saying, no, no, no, he didn't say anything like that.

00:00:59.000 No, no, no, we respect the Federal Reserve.

00:01:01.000 They cannot be touched.

00:01:02.000 Well, they can.

00:01:03.000 And I'm going to tell you why.

00:01:05.000 President Trump is getting into some very important areas here.

00:01:11.000 When he starts to do things like bring the troops home from an unconstitutional war that we should not be involved in, When he starts talking about the actions of the Fed, and criticizing the Fed, and talking about changing the Fed, it's starting to look a lot like JFK, isn't it?

00:01:29.000 Maybe that's why President Trump is also talking about the fact that we've got an armed citizenry, and if they take him out, coup or otherwise, there will be a pushback against what they're doing.

00:01:38.000 He certainly understands that he's in dangerous territory.

00:01:41.000 And we're going to talk about why he should move against the Fed, should not wait, how he might do it.

00:01:48.000 As a matter of fact, this is something that goes back to the very beginning of the Trump presidency, right after he was elected.

00:01:56.000 It was the middle of December then.

00:01:58.000 That you had then-chair Janet Yellen increase interest rates.

00:02:03.000 Now, the entire Obama administration, they had only increased interest rates slightly and done it once.

00:02:10.000 One interest rate.

00:02:11.000 The entire eight years of Obama.

00:02:14.000 And then, right after President Trump was elected, about six weeks later, they raised interest rates a quarter.

00:02:23.000 And I said at the time, and I said it for the entire week, I said they're going to do the same thing that Greenspan did.

00:02:28.000 Greenspan, of course, you remember, he created the real estate and stock market bubble with the Federal Reserve by lowering interest rates and keeping them at essentially zero for a very long period of time.

00:02:39.000 And then he began raising interest rates one quarter of a percent every calendar quarter.

00:02:44.000 It looks, if you look at the chart of Fed rates, it looks like a little stair step case going straight up.

00:02:50.000 And then if that wasn't enough, he started talking about irrational exuberance.

00:02:53.000 And of course, he had some comments this last week talking about run for the exits.

00:02:58.000 So they do everything they can to manipulate, to undermine this economy.

00:03:01.000 And of course, that has been the design of the Federal Reserve since its creation.

00:03:05.000 It was designed to do that.

00:03:06.000 So I ran the report that I did.

00:03:08.000 It was 100 years, 100 year anniversary of the creation of the Federal Reserve on a December the 21st.

00:03:16.000 That's back in 1913.

00:03:17.000 So I did the report five years ago.

00:03:19.000 It's now 105 years old.

00:03:21.000 I tied it to the movie that came out 33 years later on December the 20th, It's a Wonderful Life.

00:03:27.000 We'll play that clip for you later in the broadcast.

00:03:29.000 But you can see how they engineered bank runs.

00:03:31.000 They did everything that they could.

00:03:33.000 They conspired with foreign bankers.

00:03:34.000 The same kind of foreign bankers who were putting the Bolsheviks in power in Germany. 0.84

00:03:40.000 Warburg, Max Warburg in Germany.

00:03:42.000 And then his brother, Paul Warburg, was working with J.P.

00:03:45.000 Morgan, who is the classic.

00:03:48.000 Whether they were trying to imitate this guy or if it was just subconscious, who knows?

00:03:54.000 But clearly J.P.

00:03:55.000 Morgan was the very imbibement of a monopolistic, too-rich-for-everyone's-own-good banker.

00:04:04.000 He's the caricature that you see on Monopoly money.

00:04:08.000 And so, along with J.P.

00:04:10.000 Morgan, who is very much like the character Potter in the movie, they engineered the Federal Reserve.

00:04:15.000 They did it on a Christmas, when nobody was really paying any attention.

00:04:19.000 Now we've had Mitch McConnell show his true colors by saying, I'm not going to really do anything to try to get this to pass in the Senate.

00:04:28.000 It did pass in the House, thanks to the efforts of the House Freedom Caucus.

00:04:33.000 They firmed up President Trump on it.

00:04:34.000 They got it passed.

00:04:35.000 And then Mitch McConnell said, we're not going to use the simple majority rule.

00:04:39.000 We're going to pretend.

00:04:40.000 I'm not going to go with the nuclear option.

00:04:42.000 It's a simple majority rule.

00:04:45.000 You want to pretend that you don't have that authority?

00:04:47.000 And he did.

00:04:47.000 And so he shut the government down.

00:04:49.000 But folks, the Democrats are stonewalling.

00:04:52.000 And they're stonewalling for an open border.

00:04:55.000 They will do anything to avoid putting that little bit of money to protect the border.

00:05:00.000 Stay with us.

00:05:01.000 We'll be right back.

00:05:03.000 Defeat the globalists.

00:05:05.000 Hashtag Alex Jones. 0.98

00:05:07.000 Defeat the pedophiles.

00:05:08.000 Hashtag Alex Jones. 1.00

00:05:10.000 Defeat Alexandra Cortez and her mindless idiocy with hashtag Alex Jones. 0.98

00:05:15.000 Defeat the censors with hashtag Alex Jones. 0.87

00:05:19.000 They've tried to ban us off every platform out there, but we've just gotten stronger because you've taken action with hashtag Alex Jones.

00:05:28.000 I am patient zero in the massive banning, but you can override the censors now, and if all of our audience gets involved with hashtag Alex Jones, we are unstoppable together.

00:05:38.000 We've already changed the world together with our laser focus.

00:05:42.000 Do it again with hashtag Alex Jones on Twitter, on Facebook, on Google, on YouTube, everywhere.

00:05:48.000 Call or talk radio, C-SPAN, shout it out loud in public.

00:05:51.000 Hashtag Alex Jones.

00:05:52.000 That's the rallying cry to restore the First Amendment.

00:05:59.000 And the dynamic human spirit that refuses to submit!

00:06:04.000 From the front lines of the information war, it's Alex Jones.

00:06:09.000 [MUSIC]

00:06:15.000 I've been on the air 24 years, but I've never covered a grouping of stories

00:06:22.000 that together signify the biggest change, not just to United States policy,

00:06:29.000 but to the entire direction of the world.

00:06:34.000 This constellation of developments has the political establishment, the corrupt globalists, shaking to their core.

00:06:42.000 But the underlying theme here is extreme change for the better, but also with an extreme danger to our 45th president, Donald John Trump.

00:06:55.000 Now, I'm going to cover some of the latest developments with the president, and then I'm going to hit the big story.

00:07:00.000 And that, of course, is the private run-for-profit Federal Reserve established 104 years ago secretly at Jekyll Island, Georgia.

00:07:09.000 Ladies and gentlemen, Trump has openly signaled that he's ready to fire the private head of the Federal Reserve and even reorganize it.

00:07:19.000 Mainstream corporate media has said that he doesn't have the power to do it, but I have the Federal Reserve Act in front of me, and I'm going to read to you from it.

00:07:26.000 But obviously, if he appoints the head of the Fed, he can remove the head of the Fed, and we the people can abolish this fraudulent organization.

00:07:37.000 But remember, the last president that tried to abolish the Federal Reserve got riddled with bullets in Dallas, Texas, Dealey Plaza.

00:07:46.000 So let's run through why the establishment's so scared.

00:07:50.000 Trump ran on removing troops from our longest war, Afghanistan, and against the Syrian war.

00:07:55.000 Now we've basically ended the conflict there that Obama helped start, and the troops are being pulled out.

00:08:01.000 Both political parties are now against him and the left have now become rabid pro-war zealots foaming at the mouth.

00:08:08.000 The same people who used to show us death counts daily under the Bush era.

00:08:12.000 Continuing.

00:08:14.000 We have the bad trade deals being reversed.

00:08:17.000 Millions of new jobs.

00:08:18.000 The stock market had more than doubled until they sabotaged it. 0.98

00:08:23.000 We've seen criminal justice reform, where Hillary Clinton helped get laws passed with Bill tripling sentences for black people over white people, and saying blacks are super predators that need to be brought to heel like dogs. 0.95

00:08:36.000 Now that that's been signed and passed, the President's getting no credit for it. 0.98

00:08:40.000 He truly is.

00:08:42.000 The Liberator, ladies and gentlemen.

00:08:45.000 Sovereignty's back.

00:08:46.000 Territorial integrity is back.

00:08:49.000 He pulled us out of unelected globalist trade deals that circumvented Congress, the presidency, and the people, like TPP.

00:08:56.000 The list goes on and on.

00:08:59.000 But now let's move to why Trump is for real and why he's in grave danger.

00:09:08.000 President Trump He's moving against the private Federal Reserve.

00:09:13.000 Hasn't been audited in 104 years, but when it was founded, it was confirmed that over 80% of it was basically European owned.

00:09:21.000 So a private banking consortium has hoodwinked the public and the world into believing that it's above the law and no one can audit it and no one can question what it does.

00:09:33.000 Well, the other three branches of government are questionable and audible, but it's not even a branch of government, like Federal Ammunition or Federal Express.

00:09:42.000 It's private.

00:09:43.000 And this is now all admitted and confirmed.

00:09:46.000 A hundred years ago it was known, but over time they brainwashed the public where the public didn't even understand this.

00:09:52.000 Now, because we've exposed it, We can have a real debate about it.

00:09:58.000 But first, let's go to a short minute clip of Alan Greenspan, 10 years ago, during the subprime crisis that the private banks had engineered to consolidate control and get trillions in bailouts for themselves, telling Laird NewsHour that Congress and the President and everyone else cannot even question or say anything, that the Federal Reserve is like God.

00:10:24.000 What is the proper relationship, what should be the proper relationship between a chairman of the Fed and a president of the United States?

00:10:33.000 Well, first of all, the Federal Reserve is an independent agency, and that means basically that there is no other agency of government which can overrule actions that we take.

00:10:48.000 So long as that is in place and there is no evidence that the administration or the Congress or anybody else is requesting that we do things other than what we think is the appropriate thing, then what the relationships are don't frankly matter.

00:11:07.000 And I've had very good relationships with presidents.

00:11:12.000 Now, I'm doing my best here to be calm.

00:11:15.000 But did you just hear the giant con game, the giant Jedi mind trick that the former head of the Federal Reserve just put out there?

00:11:28.000 That no one can question them, no one can investigate them, no one can look into them.

00:11:34.000 They are completely above everything, not just above the law, but above investigation, above scrutiny.

00:11:43.000 No one is above the law.

00:11:47.000 Now, let's look at the facts, because CNN, MSNBC are saying Trump isn't allowed to even talk about firing the head of the private Federal Reserve.

00:11:57.000 But he is!

00:11:58.000 It's in the Federal Reserve Act that I'll read to you in a moment.

00:12:00.000 But first, Trump was right during the campaign.

00:12:05.000 And he was right, again, just a few months ago, in the second campaign, in the midterms.

00:12:11.000 He said, if you want to plunge the stock market, if you want the regulations back, if you want to kill the recovery, elect the Democrats, because that will signal that they're going to be able to overturn this revolution.

00:12:22.000 But he went on to say, the Federal Reserve better not raise interest rates anymore.

00:12:27.000 They've already raised it seven times.

00:12:29.000 Never did that under Obama.

00:12:31.000 He said, if they do that, it'll tank our economy.

00:12:34.000 The Federal Reserve is part of the OECD and the Ex-Im Bank, big international consortiums that basically rig interest rates around the world and other things.

00:12:44.000 It's a monopoly over currency, just like OPEC's monopoly over oil and other petrochemicals and derivatives.

00:12:53.000 And OPEC Has also, at many levels, been working with the same private Federal Reserve multinational consortium.

00:13:02.000 And these groups have agreed to let China have 10% growth rates forever.

00:13:07.000 And, it gets worse, 0% interest rates.

00:13:10.000 So just remember why Trump is so angry.

00:13:13.000 We get higher interest rates, China gets zero. 0.78

00:13:16.000 All of this is to make China the place to invest.

00:13:21.000 So here's this group that thinks it's above the law.

00:13:24.000 Dictating to you what they're going to do.

00:13:27.000 They've not been audited or investigated over 104 years.

00:13:30.000 Here's an article out of Forbes.

00:13:32.000 How Trump could fire Powell and rebuild the Fed.

00:13:37.000 And then it says right here, from the Federal Reserve Act of 1913.

00:13:40.000 Thereafter, each member shall hold office for a term of 14 years from the expiration of the term of his predecessor, unless sooner removed by cause for the president.

00:13:53.000 So read that again.

00:13:55.000 Unless sooner removed for cause by the president.

00:14:00.000 And the president decides with his executive power the cause.

00:14:05.000 Back when Obama was president, oh, the left loved all the powers of the presidency.

00:14:09.000 But now that Trump's in there, they claim that he can't even trim his toenails without permission from the bureaucracy.

00:14:18.000 They're saying it was some reckless move to pull out of Syria and to pull out of Afghanistan when he ran on that.

00:14:23.000 The truth is, you have a political consortium that follows a global plan, and presidents have just become ceremonial, and now Trump is no longer being ceremonial.

00:14:34.000 He is being the president.

00:14:35.000 And whether you agree with him or disagree with him, this is how the Constitution works.

00:14:39.000 This is how this country is supposed to operate.

00:14:41.000 And that's why the people that have stolen and usurped our country's destiny are so unhappy because Trump is wresting the wheel of state away from them.

00:14:50.000 These are the facts.

00:14:51.000 Now David Knight's hosting live today so I'll take you back live to David Knight in studio hosting the Sunday show 4 to 6 p.m.

00:15:00.000 every Sunday and then David comes back of course with his own program 8 a.m.

00:15:06.000 central every single weekday morning.

00:15:08.000 And I host 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. weekdays in the war room.

00:15:12.000 Of course, I went to Troyer three o'clock central every day after that, every weekday.

00:15:16.000 And again, I host normally the Sunday show four to six, but today David's doing a great job.

00:15:20.000 So back to David Knight and our president, Donald Trump, taking the gloves off, getting rid of all the dead wood

00:15:26.000 and actually taking command of the helm of the ship of state.

00:15:30.000 What an incredible time to be alive.

00:15:32.000 We're all witnessing history together.

00:15:34.000 All right, that's Alex Jones and I'm David Knight.

00:15:36.000 And we're going to be talking more about what's going on with the Federal Reserve coming up.

00:15:39.000 We're also going to talk about what's going on with the breaking news.

00:15:42.000 President Trump said to General Mattis that you can't quit, I'm firing you.

00:15:46.000 Effective January the 1st, you're out of here.

00:15:49.000 And we're going to tell you about this other guy who walked out.

00:15:52.000 Very interesting, I think you'll find.

00:15:53.000 We'll come back.

00:15:54.000 Stay with us.

00:15:55.000 I almost have to just sit back and take a moment of silence to think about how far we've

00:16:10.000 come against the globalists.

00:16:12.000 Ten years ago, you talk about a private Federal Reserve.

00:16:13.000 People laughed at you.

00:16:14.000 Now everybody knows it's private.

00:16:16.000 Ten years ago, you talk about a private one-world government with a plan for global carbon tax and a plan to break up the family. 0.78

00:16:21.000 People told you you were crazy.

00:16:24.000 But as 2018 prepares to unleash its mortal coil and give birth to 2019, We've been proven right. 0.97

00:16:33.000 That's why we're branded as fake news, that's why we're branded as Nazis, and all this made-up crazy crap by the horrible, deceptive corporate media that's sold out to all these multinational interests, like the Chai Koms and others. 0.99

00:16:45.000 So, I just want to make the statement again that humanity is awakening, thanks to God and all of your action.

00:16:50.000 We are moving the ball down the field against the globalists, and now, more than ever, people have to realize that we're entering the event horizon.

00:16:56.000 We've already passed the point of no return, and it's now up to you, InfoWars.

00:17:01.000 Is in your hands.

00:17:02.000 And InfoWars has been targeted because we are successful and we tell the truth.

00:17:06.000 And they want to take us down to get at you.

00:17:09.000 So just as I am in your hands, you are in our hands.

00:17:13.000 We have a shared destiny.

00:17:14.000 And everyone knows it.

00:17:16.000 They can feel it.

00:17:16.000 They can smell it.

00:17:18.000 And they're coming from everybody.

00:17:20.000 Michael Savage, Sean Hannity, and myself, and Owen Schroer, and Matt Drudge, and everybody.

00:17:27.000 They're trying to take everybody, Gavin McGinnis, off the air right now.

00:17:30.000 But none of those guys were ever able to build their own platform except for Drudge.

00:17:34.000 That's why you've got to support the InfoWars platform, because this model would mean the death to the globalist program of people being independent.

00:17:40.000 InfoWars is the renaissance model, not the conquest model, and it's you that funds it and supports it.

00:17:45.000 So, I spread the word, praying for us, and financially supporting us getting great products.

00:17:50.000 InfoWarsStore.com, you make it all possible.

00:17:52.000 And we have the best deals ever until the end of the year at InfoWarsStore.com.

00:17:56.000 Thank you all.

00:18:12.000 And we've seen thousands of prominent voices banned off Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Google, Instagram in the last two years.

00:18:22.000 It all started the day after Hillary Clinton, who outspent Donald Trump 10 to 1 in the 2016 election.

00:18:32.000 America was supposed to be all sewed up for the culture war, with the deindustrialization, the demoralization, but it didn't happen the way they'd planned it.

00:18:42.000 And so now they've announced Michael Savage, 20-something years on air, number one in his slot nationwide, is having his show canceled and replaced with Ben Shapiro, who's never even had a talk show on the radio.

00:18:55.000 Now we see they're trying to take Tucker Carlson off the air.

00:18:58.000 Now we see Gavin McGinnis, number one on CRTV, taken down.

00:19:03.000 Whoever's number one on their platform is taken down, because that's who the globalists fear is leaders.

00:19:12.000 Ladies and gentlemen, there's national campaigns out there to not even let other people post this to YouTube, Twitter, or Facebook, where even our fans can't counter what's happening.

00:19:22.000 Look, there's one thing they haven't figured out how to censor yet, and that's hashtags.

00:19:27.000 Whether it's Twitter, whether it's Instagram, whether it's Facebook, whether it's YouTube, it leads people back to feeds of information.

00:19:34.000 Hashtag Alex Jones.

00:19:37.000 If all of you, when you make a tweet, or send it on Instagram, or even talk to your neighbors, or call in to talk radio, just tell people the way to get around the censorship and break the back of the system is hashtag Alex Jones.

00:19:51.000 If everybody starts doing that, it's going to be the shot heard around the world.

00:19:56.000 world. Whatever you do, start today with #AlexJones.

00:20:03.000 You're listening to The Alex Jones Show.

00:20:10.000 [BLANK_AUDIO]

00:20:12.000 When the war was over, there were jobs galore.

00:20:17.000 For the G.I.

00:20:18.000 Josephs who were in the war.

00:20:22.000 But for generals, things were not so grand.

00:20:28.000 And it's not so hard to understand.

00:20:34.000 What can you do with a general when he stops being a general?

00:20:40.000 Oh, what can you do with a general who retired?

00:20:44.000 Or maybe he was fired.

00:20:45.000 We're trying to figure out whether this retired was fired, right?

00:20:50.000 And this is at Washington Ablaze.

00:20:52.000 Go ahead and take that down.

00:20:53.000 Of course, that's from White Christmas.

00:20:55.000 That movie, you may remember.

00:20:57.000 Was about global warming.

00:20:59.000 That's right!

00:21:00.000 Maybe, you know, Mattis can retire and buy an inn in Vermont or something.

00:21:05.000 But then of course, you know, we have that global warming.

00:21:07.000 But then that was happening back then.

00:21:08.000 They weren't silly enough back in the days of Irving Berlin to blame weather on mankind. 0.75

00:21:14.000 But we are today. 0.85

00:21:16.000 And so that whole movie, as you remember, was about a snow drought that they were having up there.

00:21:21.000 And they organized a A charity event.

00:21:26.000 Trying to get everybody to support the general.

00:21:27.000 Who apparently doesn't have the kind of golden parachute pension plans that modern day generals do.

00:21:34.000 Those generals are real generals.

00:21:36.000 These guys are politicians and they are lifetime bureaucrats.

00:21:39.000 They have a massive pension.

00:21:41.000 But of course you can always have more, right?

00:21:44.000 Just like Rockefeller said.

00:21:45.000 It's always a little bit more.

00:21:47.000 You never kind of get enough.

00:21:49.000 But when we look at what happened Over the weekend, I talked about James Mattis, his manifesto.

00:21:58.000 They call it a resignation letter.

00:21:59.000 I call it a globalist manifesto.

00:22:01.000 And I'll tell you why in just a moment.

00:22:04.000 But President Trump had enough, and so he tweeted out today that he's got somebody that's going to be starting effective January the 1st.

00:22:12.000 In other words, he's not going to wait for the 60 to 90 days that Mattis said he was going to hang around.

00:22:18.000 To make sure, of course, that we had an adult in the room.

00:22:22.000 And as one of the reports, Mattis said, this is a guy, when you look at the fact that they called him Mad Dog Mattis, and he bragged about how he wanted to have a plan to kill everybody in the room.

00:22:36.000 He's the adult in the room.

00:22:40.000 You can't make this stuff up.

00:22:42.000 Pretty amazing what we have here.

00:22:44.000 And of course, if we go back and look at his resignation letter, He's saying things like his core belief is that our strength as a nation is inextricably linked to the strength of our system of alliances and partnerships.

00:22:56.000 Well, you know what?

00:22:57.000 That is exactly the opposite of what America is about.

00:23:02.000 It is enough to make the founders of America spend in their graves, Washington said in his farewell address, to avoid entangling alliances for this very reason.

00:23:13.000 And yet he thinks that's our core strength.

00:23:17.000 And he goes on to say that we have to do everything possible to advance an international order.

00:23:23.000 No, that is not your job.

00:23:25.000 All of these people who say that they can't spend a little tiny sliver of the budget to defend our country are adamant that we have to defend these alliances.

00:23:38.000 Because, see, their loyalty is to these international alliances and to the military-industrial complex, not to America.

00:23:44.000 That's the bottom line, folks, that you need to understand.

00:23:47.000 It's great that President Trump is finally moving against these people.

00:23:53.000 One individual, Matt Purple, said, and the American conservative said, Vladimir Putin is being given credit for all this stuff.

00:24:03.000 No, it's actually President Trump.

00:24:05.000 One headline said somehow he got a double shot of political Viagra and realized that he's got a lot of power that he can use.

00:24:13.000 And he's going straight at the centers of power.

00:24:17.000 But as Matt Purple said, Vladimir Putin must be a wily one.

00:24:21.000 Think about all that he's managed to accomplish over the last 24 hours.

00:24:25.000 According to the geopolitical wizards on Twitter, at Putin's behest, President Trump on Wednesday announced the withdrawal of American troops from Syria.

00:24:32.000 That's now cleared the path for Russia to exert control over Damascus, the Middle East, indeed the world itself, because Moscow has at last secured the jewel in its neo-conservative, I should say, neo-Soviet empire. 0.78

00:24:45.000 We're the ones with the neo-conservative empire.

00:24:47.000 A strip of chaotic desert in northeast Syria. 0.89

00:24:51.000 Yeah, it's pretty silly when we look at this.

00:24:54.000 And of course, Rand Paul pointed out that we have these armchair generals and, you know, what are we going to do with them?

00:25:02.000 We should show them the door just like President Trump did.

00:25:06.000 But Rand Paul said this about the armchair generals who want to keep us at war forever.

00:25:11.000 Video clip for.

00:25:13.000 It was never the mission.

00:25:14.000 The mission was to wipe out ISIS, and we did succeed.

00:25:17.000 And the thing is, it's incredibly bold to win a war and come home.

00:25:21.000 That's what the people want.

00:25:22.000 If you poll the American people, it's 60-70% of people are ready to get out of Afghanistan, and I'll bet you the same is Syria if you ask the people.

00:25:31.000 It's only the people in Washington, the armchair generals, that want to keep us at war forever.

00:25:36.000 And people, Americans are tired of it.

00:25:38.000 We want that money here at home.

00:25:39.000 And we want to create jobs, roads, bridges here at home, not in Afghanistan. 1.00

00:25:45.000 That's absolutely right.

00:25:46.000 And so President Trump tweeted out this afternoon that starting January the 1st, Mattis is going to be gone.

00:25:51.000 We don't need somebody whose loyalty is to an international system of alliances and not to the American people.

00:25:59.000 He goes on to say in his resignation letter, Mattis said, the U.S., I agree with you, as I've said from the beginning, the armed forces of the U.S.

00:26:07.000 should not be the policemen of the world.

00:26:10.000 And then he goes on to talk about NATO and its 29 democracies.

00:26:14.000 Wait a minute.

00:26:15.000 Who provides virtually all of NATO's troops, equipment and funding?

00:26:20.000 That would be The policeman of the world, the U.S.

00:26:24.000 And then he talked about the defeat ISIS coalition of 74 nations, which, frankly, I wasn't aware that it even existed.

00:26:31.000 But there was a bureaucrat who was making a lot of money out of that coalition and his job there.

00:26:38.000 And he also came out against President Trump.

00:26:41.000 That's McGurk.

00:26:45.000 And Brett McGurk was the envoy to that coalition, that very effective coalition.

00:26:52.000 And he abruptly resigned.

00:26:53.000 You know, 74 nations, who knew?

00:26:54.000 I didn't know anything about that.

00:26:56.000 But he was also, interestingly enough, the guy who made the announcement that really ticked me and a lot of people off.

00:27:05.000 And I talked about it and I said, is this really what the Trump administration is about?

00:27:08.000 Well, fortunately it isn't.

00:27:10.000 But he got up there and said, we have determined that we are going to be in Syria for an indeterminate amount of time.

00:27:19.000 And I said, are you kidding me?

00:27:20.000 We're going to have another forever war?

00:27:22.000 You'd had the mainstream media, like the Washington Post and the New York Times, releasing the week before that we had troops that controlled one-third of Syria, an area about the size of Louisiana, that they were going to stay there, he said.

00:27:35.000 He holds a press conference, Brett McGurk, and said, we're going to be there indefinitely.

00:27:41.000 And President Trump had something to say about that.

00:27:45.000 And if we go back and we look at how this all began, going back to the Daily Caller, said if we go back a couple of weeks, December the 14th, there was a phone call between President Trump and the Turkish President Erdogan.

00:28:01.000 And you had John Bolton standing, sitting there in the White House.

00:28:07.000 And so it's supposed to be a call for President Trump to warn Erdogan to back off.

00:28:15.000 Back off our Kurdish rebels. 1.00

00:28:17.000 But the president of Turkey asked Trump, why are you even still in Syria?

00:28:22.000 You've got a third of the country there.

00:28:24.000 Why are you even there?

00:28:26.000 ISIS has been 99% defeated.

00:28:29.000 And then President Trump went off script, and he asked Bolton, according to NBC News, with Erdogan on the line, Trump asked National Security Advisor John Bolton, who was listening in, why American troops remained in Syria, if what the President of Turkey said was true.

00:28:43.000 According to officials, Erdogan's point, Bolton was forced to admit, and had been backed up by Mattis, Pompeo, U.S.

00:28:49.000 Special Envoy for Syria, Jim Jeffery, and Brett McCurk.

00:28:52.000 They all said, yeah, they've only got 1%.

00:28:55.000 In other words, they've been beaten.

00:28:57.000 They've been beaten.

00:28:59.000 And Russia has almost completely stopped its flights.

00:29:01.000 Stay with us.

00:29:01.000 We'll be right back.

00:29:03.000 Infowars has changed the world.

00:29:06.000 Our audience, by supporting us, have truly been in the arena.

00:29:10.000 That means if you're old, it means if you're young, it means if you're black, white, it doesn't matter. 0.79

00:29:14.000 If you love freedom and you love justice and you believe in free market capitalism and you believe in the Christian ethos, you believe in Western civilization and you believe in progress, then you are the man and woman in the arena and I salute you As we prepare to close out 2018, I knew that when they deplatformed us in a massive, draconian, concerted, racketeering operation four and a half months ago, that it was about removing Trump's populist, nationalist support base.

00:29:42.000 The people's support base for him.

00:29:45.000 And now we see, in just the last few weeks, Michael Savage is having his show cancelled from three hours to one hour, even though it has record ratings.

00:29:52.000 And Ben Shapiro, never been on talk radio, is being given his show, given his audience.

00:29:57.000 We see Gab McGinnis being taken off the air for being number one on CRTV, better than Glenn Beck, and others.

00:30:03.000 Anyone who truly connects with the people, and who doesn't apologize for America, from our president to yours truly, is being demonized, being sued, being attacked, being taken off the air.

00:30:15.000 The globalists are really upset now because they threw everything they had at us in the last few years.

00:30:21.000 The shadow banning and the lawsuits, the lies, the attacks, the boycotting of our sponsors, and it didn't work.

00:30:28.000 So now with the de-platforming, we're on talk radio, we're on local TV stations, and we're at Infowars.com and Newswars.com with bigger than ever audiences.

00:30:37.000 On those platforms.

00:30:38.000 InfoWars has two or three times the audience ever had, but that's on InfoWars.

00:30:43.000 It cuts our reach, though, to other platforms.

00:30:46.000 And that's where you come in.

00:30:48.000 Now, about two weeks ago, George Soros Media Matters funded Combine, erected by U.S.

00:30:55.000 intelligence agencies that aren't following Trump's directives.

00:30:59.000 He legally began launching operations to lie about Infowars and things we've said and done, and to contact radio stations across the country that we're on and say, Alex Jones is fake news.

00:31:11.000 Alex Jones is fiction.

00:31:12.000 Announce it's fiction.

00:31:14.000 In an attempt to have those stations kick us off the air.

00:31:17.000 And they misquote statements from 2013, 2015 and say, he's still doing all this, take him off the air.

00:31:25.000 We're talking about digital Nazis, or digital communists.

00:31:29.000 Digital authoritarianism is really the proper term.

00:31:34.000 And they're doing this because they can't beat us.

00:31:36.000 And they know from Brazil, to Germany, to the United Kingdom, to Russia, to Italy, to all over the world, nationalist and populist free market candidates are getting elected.

00:31:48.000 People are aware of the one world government plan to abolish our borders, to abolish our families, to make us debt slaves.

00:31:54.000 And they're saying no.

00:31:55.000 That's positive.

00:31:56.000 We're winning overall globally.

00:31:58.000 Humanity's coming back from the dead.

00:31:59.000 But, for those of us that...

00:32:03.000 Or the tip of the spear, we're being targeted to take out the leadership.

00:32:06.000 That's the globalist only hope.

00:32:08.000 So when you support InfoWars, when you spread our articles and videos, when you buy products at InfoWarsStore.com, you are literally not just supporting InfoWars and free speech, and standing in defiance against Soros and Hillary and the rest of these people, but you are standing for your own future, and your own best shot of having an early warning system in America to stand against these individuals.

00:32:29.000 When you order products at InfoWareStore.com, you fund not just an American revolution, but a global revolution against tyranny.

00:32:35.000 And we have the biggest specials ever running throughout to the end of the year as part of a total store clearance.

00:32:44.000 Every order gets 50 to 75% off in total clearance.

00:32:57.000 We're on the march, the empire's on the run.

00:32:59.000 I salute you all.

00:33:00.000 Now please take action at Infowarsstore.com.

00:33:05.000 You're listening to the Alex Jones Show.

00:33:16.000 Live from the Infowars.com studios, you're listening to the Alex Jones Show.

00:33:23.000 And now, your host, David Knight.

00:33:30.000 You know, one of the things that amazes me is how many conservatives are, and people I would typically not think about being neocons, maybe I have to rethink that, are siding with Mattis.

00:33:30.000 Welcome back.

00:33:45.000 And as Daily Caller pointed out, it was a conference call going back to December the 14th, where President Trump was talking to the President of Turkey.

00:33:54.000 And he was supposed to be telling him to back off for the neocons.

00:33:57.000 Instead, as they were talking, Erdogan said, why are you still there?

00:34:03.000 ISIS is down to just 1% of what it was before.

00:34:06.000 They're 99% gone.

00:34:07.000 And President Trump turned to John Bolton and said, is that true?

00:34:11.000 And he said, uh, yeah.

00:34:14.000 And as I've reported in the morning show, That we have here begins at 9 a.m.

00:34:22.000 Eastern Time, Monday through Friday.

00:34:25.000 As I was talking about it, Russia had cut down their flights by 99%.

00:34:29.000 Weeks ago!

00:34:30.000 They had been running between 100 and 110 flights a day.

00:34:35.000 Between 100 to 110 flights per day.

00:34:38.000 And they cut it down to 1 to 2 flights per week.

00:34:42.000 That's way more than 99%.

00:34:45.000 So I think Erdogan was being conservative when he said that.

00:34:49.000 And so President Trump turned to Bolton and said, is that true?

00:34:54.000 And said, yeah, yeah, that's true.

00:34:56.000 Mattis knows it.

00:34:57.000 Pompeo knows it.

00:34:59.000 Brett McGurk, this other guy who just quit, knows it.

00:35:01.000 And so they spent the following week unsuccessfully trying to turn Trump around.

00:35:08.000 As a matter of fact, this other guy who resigned, Brett McGurk, Was the one who had the press conference and said, we're going to be there for an indefinite period of time.

00:35:20.000 And that was, I think, an effort to intimidate President Trump, to make him look bad in case President Trump went ahead with that policy.

00:35:29.000 This is the way the deep state establishment protects itself.

00:35:32.000 They hold press conferences, just like you've seen Rosenstein holding a press conference as President Trump is going off to meet the President of Russia.

00:35:39.000 So we don't want to have detente.

00:35:41.000 Remember, detente used to be a good thing.

00:35:42.000 Detente used to be the easing of strained relations.

00:35:44.000 Now they want to do everything they can to strain relations.

00:35:48.000 If that means that they can attack President Trump or try to make him look bad.

00:35:52.000 And so that's what Rosenstein did with his phony indictments that he released as President Trump was flying to a summit meeting.

00:35:58.000 And so that's, I think, what Brett McCurk did.

00:36:00.000 Now, Stephen Miller got on Thursday night And he had this to say, one foreign policy blunder after another in Iraq, Afghanistan and Libya has not worked out for our national interest.

00:36:08.000 And let's talk about Syria.

00:36:09.000 Let's talk about the fact that ISIS is the enemy of Russia.

00:36:14.000 ISIS is the enemy of Assad in Syria.

00:36:17.000 ISIS is the enemy of Turkey.

00:36:19.000 Are we supposed to stay in Syria for generation after generation, spilling American blood to fight the enemies of all those countries? 0.98

00:36:25.000 Wolf, and he's talking to Wolf Blitzer on CNN, when did the American people sign up to be in every war and every place and every side of every conflict all over planet Earth?

00:36:36.000 Well, I guess that goes back to General Mattis' retirement things, as our strength as a nation is linked to our systems of alliances and partnerships, where we have foreign entangling alliances that get us involved in every single conflict.

00:36:48.000 Now, you think about the fact, as he pointed out, that Russia and Turkey and Syria are all fighting ISIS, but we've got to stay there, even though they're 99% defeated.

00:36:59.000 And then, of course, the mission creep Became that this was about Iran.

00:37:05.000 And yet, Iran is the enemy of Israel, the enemy of Saudi Arabia, for certain. 0.81

00:37:10.000 And if you go into this, of course, there are going to be enemies with Turkey as well, because Turkey doesn't subscribe to the same brand of Islam that they have.

00:37:17.000 So all these people are going to be fighting Iran as well.

00:37:21.000 President Reagan was right when he pulled us out of Beirut after that bombing.

00:37:24.000 He said, this place is crazy.

00:37:25.000 They've always been fighting each other.

00:37:27.000 They're going to continue to fight each other.

00:37:29.000 We don't need to be here.

00:37:30.000 Except that you have people like Hillary Clinton. 0.99

00:37:33.000 Who is now lecturing Trump about empowering ISIS after he wants to get rid of a forever war.

00:37:42.000 Remember back in 2013 when Rand Paul asked her, said, you know, quite frankly, I'm glad that you took responsibility for this because I would have fired you if I was president.

00:37:54.000 And then she goes on to dump responsibility away from herself.

00:37:58.000 She dumps it on her number two.

00:37:59.000 For the number two on down, it's their fault, she said.

00:38:02.000 But Rand Paul also asked her about weapons that were being supplied to Turkey.

00:38:08.000 Some of those weapons were being sent to forces in Syria.

00:38:13.000 And because Erdogan was using ISIS at the time, just like we were using ISIS.

00:38:20.000 To try to achieve regime change.

00:38:23.000 And she said, she had the audacity to say in that hearing, well, if you want to know about arms being shipped out of Benghazi to terrorists, you'll have to talk to the agency that was running the annex.

00:38:34.000 Well, who was running the annex?

00:38:35.000 That would be the CIA.

00:38:37.000 But Hillary Clinton isn't going to say, you've got to ask the CIA.

00:38:40.000 She's clever enough, devious and clever enough to say, ask the agency that was running the annex.

00:38:48.000 And when we look at what was happening in the roundup to this, I played on Friday, I played John McCain's clip where he said Hillary and the national security team wanted to arm ISIS and Obama said no and then McCain said he's weak!

00:39:04.000 Of course, McCain was meeting with a terrorist.

00:39:06.000 Hillary wanted to arm ISIS. 1.00

00:39:08.000 The question is, did they disobey Obama?

00:39:11.000 Or did Obama change his mind?

00:39:14.000 Was he in on it or whatever?

00:39:15.000 Because they did.

00:39:16.000 They did arm them.

00:39:17.000 And we had Michael Flynn, back in 2015, saying it was a willful decision to arm ISIS.

00:39:25.000 I mean, McCain is admitting it.

00:39:27.000 Everybody knows that they were arming ISIS, and now they want to say that President Trump is helping ISIS when they are 99% defeated.

00:39:35.000 And so this guy, Brett McGurk, who's the one that came out

00:39:40.000 to try to throw President Trump under the bus, try to put him in a difficult place

00:39:43.000 where he couldn't pull out, but Trump did it anyway,

00:39:46.000 he has now left as well.

00:39:48.000 And so the establishment is freaking out about this.

00:39:51.000 I think it's very, very good news.

00:39:52.000 The person that's gonna replace Mattis is the number two guy there, Patrick Shanahan.

00:39:59.000 Now, he is a defense contractor from Boeing.

00:40:03.000 He's part of the military-industrial complex.

00:40:04.000 I don't expect him to be somebody who is on the side of us defending America.

00:40:08.000 You know, every time it comes to protecting our borders, what do we hear?

00:40:13.000 We hear, well, that's not a threat.

00:40:15.000 All these entanglements that we've got abroad, those are the real threats. 0.98

00:40:20.000 There's no legal authority to do this.

00:40:21.000 You know, when you go back to Syria, they built a dozen Military bases in Syria?

00:40:25.000 You know, they're occupying a third of the country. 0.94

00:40:27.000 The U.S.

00:40:27.000 military built a dozen military bases.

00:40:30.000 Did you know that they're doing that with your money?

00:40:32.000 Did you know that they also built four air bases there?

00:40:36.000 Now, who approved that money?

00:40:39.000 Where did that money come from?

00:40:41.000 You know, we talk about $5 billion for the wall, and we can't come up with that.

00:40:46.000 Back in the 1960s, I think it was, it was Everett Dirksen.

00:40:50.000 That was when they had Republicans coming from Illinois.

00:40:50.000 He was a Republican.

00:40:53.000 And I'm not talking about going all the way back to Abraham Lincoln, but it's probably pretty close.

00:40:57.000 But he said, yeah, a million dollars here and a million dollars there.

00:41:00.000 Pretty soon you're talking about real money.

00:41:02.000 Well, today we just throw around billions of dollars like they're pennies because we've got a $4 trillion expenditure budget that we have.

00:41:10.000 And yet, the $5 billion, which is chump change, folks, it's one-eighth of a penny of what we spend.

00:41:20.000 One-eighth of one percent.

00:41:23.000 And they can't find the money for that, because they don't want our borders protected.

00:41:26.000 So they say, we can't find the money for it, there's no authority for it, there isn't any risk, and on and on.

00:41:30.000 They're lecturing President Trump.

00:41:32.000 You've got Jim Acosta getting in his face, saying, they're not coming here.

00:41:35.000 They'll dissipate, and it's nothing to be afraid of.

00:41:37.000 And yet we have more than a caravan coming across that are intercepted each week.

00:41:43.000 That's not counting the people who get into this country illegally.

00:41:46.000 Those are just the people that are caught by Border Patrol.

00:41:50.000 That's more than a caravan a week is caught.

00:41:54.000 This is an existential issue, folks.

00:41:57.000 So are the foreign wars that go forever.

00:42:00.000 That is also an existential issue.

00:42:02.000 And the Federal Reserve is an existential issue.

00:42:04.000 I'm going to play that report for you coming up.

00:42:08.000 Again, it's a wonderful lie, talking about the creation of the Federal Reserve.

00:42:12.000 Talking about how many senators at the time said that's going to give them the power to create boom and bust cycles. 0.99

00:42:18.000 And of course, we had Ben Bernanke, the former chair of the Fed, say, yeah, we caused the Great Depression.

00:42:24.000 Sorry about that.

00:42:25.000 We won't do it again.

00:42:26.000 Oh, really?

00:42:28.000 I think maybe they will do it again.

00:42:30.000 Folks, we still have the specials at InfoWarsStore.com.

00:42:34.000 If you haven't been by there to take a look at what we've got, it's an end-of-year total store clearance.

00:42:39.000 And we've extended our Christmas specials to the end of the year.

00:42:42.000 You can get free shipping storewide, double Patriot points, and a free t-shirt with every order.

00:42:47.000 Take a look at all the daily specials.

00:42:49.000 We had 24-hour daily specials.

00:42:51.000 They're back.

00:42:52.000 Some things are up to 75% off.

00:42:56.000 We really do appreciate your support.

00:42:57.000 We'll be right back with that special Christmas report.

00:42:59.000 It's a wonderful lie.

00:43:17.000 You understand what they're scared of.

00:43:19.000 They're scared of nationalism.

00:43:21.000 They're scared of patriotism.

00:43:24.000 They are scared of people that will stand up for their sovereignty and who are territorial. 0.99

00:43:29.000 Because we have these multinational corporations that have slave factories, literal concentration camps in China, like Apple and others, who see us as weak and stupid, and they have this whole leftist ideology that's meant to basically weaken us and divide and conquer us, but it's not working anymore. 0.65

00:43:45.000 And the globalists have been able to track back where the main resistance in the last 20 years came from, And that main resistance has been my syndicated radio show, the documentary films we've made that have been seen hundreds of millions of times, and the other news operations that we've set up.

00:44:03.000 And that's why we're under such attack, and that's why we can't give up in the face of the globalist onslaught, because we've already launched the Americana movement, the new renaissance, 1776, worldwide.

00:44:14.000 It's happening!

00:44:15.000 This isn't a hoax!

00:44:16.000 This isn't hype!

00:44:18.000 Infowars is real!

00:44:20.000 That's why the enemy media is always saying we're a hoax, or always saying we're fake, or always saying we're a fraud, because they don't know how to counter something that's the opposite of them.

00:44:30.000 When they say we're a hoax or a fraud, they're talking about themselves.

00:44:35.000 Ladies and gentlemen, you can see us here in one of our new state-of-the-art studios.

00:44:38.000 I was planning by the end of 2018 to be 24 hours a day live.

00:44:42.000 On radio and TV.

00:44:43.000 And we only launched two new shows in 2018, CounterThink and The War Room, and they do a great job.

00:44:49.000 We also, right before that started, launched The Real News with David Knight.

00:44:52.000 And we've expanded in the face of the attacks.

00:44:54.000 But I really, in the next three or four months, want to be able to go at least 20 hours a day live by the spring.

00:45:00.000 And that's going to take major support by you, the audience, to get around the censorship, to get around the boycotts, to get around the globalist lawsuits.

00:45:08.000 And you've been doing it So far.

00:45:11.000 But I need your prayers.

00:45:12.000 I need your support.

00:45:13.000 I need your word of mouth that's unstoppable and overrides the censors.

00:45:16.000 And I need you to go to InfoWarsTore.com as we go into the new year where I'm going to extend all the Christmas specials that were the biggest in our history to sell out of all of our products so we don't have to pay inventory tax by January 1st.

00:45:29.000 Everything is going.

00:45:30.000 We've got new shipments coming in in February.

00:45:32.000 We're going to be sold out of a lot of products until February because folks have been coming

00:45:35.000 through.

00:45:36.000 But a lot of these products we're selling at below cost.

00:45:38.000 You get storewide free shipping, a free t-shirt, 50 to 75 percent off and double Patriot points

00:45:43.000 on your next order.

00:45:44.000 It's at a 5 percent, 10 percent on each dollar.

00:45:46.000 These are our biggest deals ever because we're also coming online with a new sponsorship

00:45:50.000 model to augment our sales direct so there's no way the globalists can shut us down.

00:45:55.000 We aren't just going to continue to fight.

00:45:57.000 We're going to win thanks to your steadfast prayer and financial support.

00:46:01.000 So again, the three pillars of this.

00:46:04.000 Praying to God.

00:46:06.000 Spreading the word about the articles and videos and taking action.

00:46:08.000 Or doing your own show.

00:46:09.000 Or doing both.

00:46:10.000 And then of course, ladies and gentlemen, financial support.

00:46:13.000 That's a three-legged stool.

00:46:14.000 You can also add reaching out to local radio and TV stations.

00:46:18.000 Thanking them.

00:46:19.000 Thanking their sponsors.

00:46:20.000 Becoming a sponsor.

00:46:22.000 As Christians and conservatives and nationalists, we're quiet people that are confident.

00:46:26.000 We're not like leftist bullies.

00:46:28.000 Not to bully anybody, you've just got to have your voice be heard.

00:46:31.000 So, all the Christmas specials that we have are all extended until products sell out right through until January 1st, 2019.

00:46:40.000 InfoWarsTore.com is the umbrella site for everything.

00:46:43.000 InfoWarsLife.com takes you right to the supplements.

00:46:45.000 These are amazing products.

00:46:46.000 Take advantage of them today.

00:46:47.000 And to all the listeners that have been supporting us for years, thank you.

00:46:50.000 What we've done to the globalists is thanks to you.

00:46:52.000 You are the InfoWar.

00:46:53.000 You are the resistance.

00:46:55.000 You're listening to the Alex Jones Show.

00:47:09.000 [Music]

00:47:21.000 Welcome back!

00:47:21.000 This last week we saw the 72nd anniversary of It's a Wonderful Life and the 105th anniversary of the Federal Reserve created on December the 21st, 1913.

00:47:34.000 And I did a report in 2013 called It's a Wonderful Lie, talking about how we were manipulated into having a Federal Reserve.

00:47:40.000 You know, everybody's asking, can President Trump fire the Fed Chairman?

00:47:44.000 We need to be asking the question why we even have a Fed Chairman in charge of our economy and what they have been doing to us.

00:47:51.000 We'll talk a little bit more about that coming up, but I want to play for you.

00:47:55.000 It's a Wonderful Lie is done on the 100th anniversary of the creation of the Federal Reserve surreptitiously on that Christmas.

00:48:03.000 Over the last 100 years, the Federal Reserve has created bubbles and burst them, enslaved us with debt, and destroyed our purchasing power through inflation.

00:48:12.000 Yes, it's been a wonderful lie for the bankers.

00:48:16.000 There are striking parallels in Frank Capra's It's a Wonderful Life to the lies and tricks that real bankers used to create the Federal Reserve.

00:48:24.000 Human nature doesn't change, and the greedy elite of 1913 and 2013 look and act a lot like Potter, the banker in the movie.

00:48:33.000 And many Americans are left like George Bailey, staring into the abyss as their dreams collapse and they face financial ruin.

00:48:40.000 Do we live in a country that looks a lot more like Pottersville than Bedford Falls?

00:48:43.000 What does Frank Capra's film show us about how we got here and how we can get out?

00:48:49.000 When the Federal Reserve was created two days before Christmas 100 years ago, it was a culmination of six years of fraud, fear, and manipulation.

00:48:57.000 I've never really seen one, but that's got all the earmarks of being a run.

00:49:00.000 The panic of 1907 was used to shape public support for the Fed.

00:49:05.000 The panic was triggered by rumors that two major banks were about to become insolvent,

00:49:09.000 just as we see in the movie.

00:49:11.000 George, there is a rumor around town that you've closed your doors.

00:49:15.000 Is that true?

00:49:16.000 I am going all out to help in this crisis.

00:49:20.000 I have just guaranteed the bank sufficient funds to meet their needs.

00:49:26.000 They'll close up for a week and then reopen.

00:49:30.000 Just took over the bank.

00:49:32.000 I may lose a fortune, but I am willing to guarantee your people, too.

00:49:37.000 Just tell them to bring their shares over here, and I will pay 50 cents on the dollar.

00:49:43.000 Oh, you never miss a trick, do you, Potter?

00:49:45.000 Unfortunately, J.P.

00:49:46.000 Morgan got away with the deception, and was able to shut down competitors and snapped up assets at fire cell prices.

00:49:53.000 Uh, take during the Depression, for instance.

00:49:56.000 You and I were the only ones that kept our heads.

00:49:59.000 You saved the building and lawn.

00:50:00.000 I saved all the rest.

00:50:03.000 Yes, well, most people say you stole all the rest.

00:50:05.000 The envious ones say that, George. 1.00

00:50:08.000 The suckers! 1.00

00:50:09.000 Charles Lindbergh Sr. 0.81

00:50:10.000 warned people at the time of the creation of the Federal Reserve that it would not stop booming bus cycles, but would actually create them in order to benefit its private owners.

00:50:18.000 Here's what he said.

00:50:20.000 To cause high prices, all the Federal Reserve Board will do will be to lower the re-discount rate, producing an expansion of credit and a rising stock market.

00:50:28.000 Then, when businessmen are adjusted to these conditions, it can check prosperity in mid-career by arbitrarily raising the rate of interest.

00:50:34.000 It can cause a pendulum of a rising and falling market to swing gently back and forth, or cause violent fluctuations by greater rate variation.

00:50:42.000 And in either case, it will possess inside information as to the financial conditions and advanced knowledge of the coming change, either up or down.

00:50:51.000 This is the strangest, most dangerous advantage ever placed in the hands of a special privileged class by any government that ever existed.

00:50:58.000 The system is private, conducted for the sole purpose of obtaining the greatest possible profits from the use of other people's money.

00:51:05.000 They know in advance when to create panics to their advantage, and they know when to stop panic.

00:51:10.000 Inflation and deflation work equally well for them when they control the finance.

00:51:15.000 As we see in the movie, not all lending institutions have the same motivations.

00:51:20.000 Now you take this loan here to Ernie Bishop.

00:51:24.000 You know, that fellow that sits around all day on his brains in his taxi, you know?

00:51:30.000 I happen to know the bank turned down this loan.

00:51:33.000 But he comes here, and we're building him a house worth $5,000!

00:51:39.000 Why?

00:51:39.000 Well, I handled that, Mr. Potter.

00:51:43.000 You have all the papers there, his salary, insurance.

00:51:46.000 I can personally vouch for his character.

00:51:48.000 Friend of yours.

00:51:50.000 You see, if you shoot pool with some employee here, you can come and borrow money.

00:51:56.000 What does that get us?

00:51:58.000 A discontented, lazy rabble instead of a thrifty working class. 1.00

00:52:04.000 As a former FDIC chair said, all too often the large banks use their models and their algorithms, and if you don't fit in their boxes, you don't get the loan.

00:52:12.000 And Dodd-Frank legislation is tying the hands of small lenders, shutting out buyers, and shutting down lenders.

00:52:17.000 Today, there are fewer lenders than at any time the government has kept records.

00:52:21.000 10,000 banks disappeared between 1984 and 2011.

00:52:23.000 This town needs this measly one-horse institution, if only to have some place where people can come without crawling the potter. 0.68

00:52:35.000 If it hadn't been for you... Yeah, if it hadn't been for me, everybody would be a lot better off.

00:52:44.000 My wife and my kids and my friends and my... Look, little fella, why don't you go off and haunt somebody else? 0.99

00:52:49.000 Yeah, so you still think killing yourself would make everyone feel happier, eh? 0.99

00:52:53.000 Well, I don't know.

00:52:56.000 I guess you're right.

00:53:00.000 It's both been better if I'd never been born at all.

00:53:02.000 Pottersville, the only businesses thriving are vice.

00:53:06.000 People are angry.

00:53:07.000 The town is filled with signs like, keep moving, keep off the grass.

00:53:11.000 The cop actually shoots at George when he's running away and is no threat to anyone.

00:53:16.000 Stand back!

00:53:17.000 Everyone is a renter.

00:53:19.000 No one has a stake.

00:53:25.000 Now, you're Arnie Bishop, and you live in Bailey Park with your wife and kid.

00:53:28.000 Look, bud, what's the idea?

00:53:29.000 I live in a shack in Pottersville.

00:53:31.000 My wife ran away three years ago and took the kid, and I ain't never seen you before in my life, see?

00:53:35.000 Private property and everyone having a stake is the antidote to Pottersville.

00:53:40.000 Here, you're all businessmen here.

00:53:41.000 Don't it make them better citizens?

00:53:43.000 Doesn't it make them better customers?

00:53:44.000 But whether it's the Trans-Pacific Partnership or a global carbon tax, the global elite don't see you as a stakeholder.

00:53:51.000 They want to turn us all into serfs and treat us like cattle. 0.83

00:53:55.000 Just remember this, Mr. Potter, that this rabble you're talking about, they do most of the working and paying and living and dying in this community. 0.98

00:54:02.000 Well, is it too much to have them work and pay and live and die in a couple of decent rooms and a bath?

00:54:07.000 Anyway, my father didn't think so.

00:54:10.000 People were human beings to him, but to you, a warped, frustrated old man, they're cattle.

00:54:15.000 Well, in my book, he died a much richer man than you'll ever be.

00:54:17.000 I'm not interested in your book.

00:54:19.000 I'm talking about the building and loan.

00:54:22.000 I know very well what you're talking about.

00:54:24.000 You're talking about something you can't get your fingers on.

00:54:26.000 Speaking of riches, do you find the salary amounts amusing when Potter tries to buy George off?

00:54:31.000 Let's look at your side.

00:54:34.000 Young man, 27, 28, married.

00:54:39.000 Make me say 40 a week.

00:54:40.000 a week. 45. 45. 45. George, I'll start you out at $20,000 a year. $20,000 a year?

00:54:41.000 45.

00:54:56.000 You wouldn't mind living in the nicest house in town?

00:55:00.000 Buying your wife a lot of fine clothes?

00:55:02.000 A couple of business trips to New York a year?

00:55:05.000 Maybe once in a while Europe?

00:55:07.000 You wouldn't mind that, would you, Jones?

00:55:09.000 Would I?

00:55:10.000 Even if George had saved a lot of Decades later, by even the government's very conservative estimate of inflation, the dollar has lost 90% of its value since 1947, when the movie was made.

00:55:25.000 The Fed's deliberate inflation is devastating to anyone trying to accumulate wealth through hard work and saving.

00:55:31.000 So what is the answer to all the George Baileys out there a hundred years after the government gave control of our money supply to private bankers like Potter?

00:55:39.000 Well, Potter had more money than he could spend.

00:55:42.000 But would any of you want to be Potter?

00:55:44.000 You sit around here and you spin your little webs and you think the whole world revolves around you and your money.

00:55:49.000 Well, it doesn't, Mr. Potter!

00:55:52.000 In the whole vast configuration of things, I'd say you were nothing but a scurvy little spider.

00:55:57.000 George Bailey finally sees how rich his own life is, as he sees the fruits of relationship, honesty, and compassion.

00:56:04.000 Merry Christmas, Mr. Boyd!

00:56:04.000 Hey!

00:56:09.000 Happy New Year to you!

00:56:10.000 In jail!

00:56:11.000 Go on home, they're waiting for you!

00:56:14.000 And if the public can awaken to the lies of the Federal Reserve, if it could even be audited... Well, hello, Mr. Bank Examiner!

00:56:21.000 It would be a huge step to breaking the chains that enslave all of us.

00:56:26.000 But ultimately, it is God that changes minds and changes hearts.

00:56:30.000 God hates oppression, and we can and should confidently pray that he will stop it.

00:56:36.000 I owe everything to George Bailey.

00:56:39.000 Help him, dear father.

00:56:41.000 Joseph, Jesus, and Mary.

00:56:44.000 Help my friend, Mr. Bailey.

00:56:47.000 Help my son, George, tonight.

00:56:50.000 He never thinks about himself, God.

00:56:52.000 That's why he's in trouble.

00:56:54.000 George is a good guy.

00:56:55.000 Give him a break, God.

00:56:58.000 I love him, dear Lord.

00:57:00.000 Watch over him tonight.

00:57:02.000 Please, God.

00:57:03.000 Something's the matter with Daddy.

00:57:06.000 Please bring Daddy back.

00:57:08.000 (church music)

00:57:10.000 Dear Father in heaven, (church music)

00:57:15.000 I'm not a praying man, but (church music)

00:57:18.000 if you're up there and you can hear me, (church music)

00:57:22.000 show me the way.

00:57:24.000 (church music)

00:57:27.000 For the InfoWars Nightly News, I'm David Knight.

00:57:32.000 And again, if you want to see that, or pass that around, you'll find it on our BitChute and Brighteon channels, because that was the very first thing that YouTube took down.

00:57:41.000 You don't talk about the Federal Reserve without having them take you off and deplatform you.

00:57:47.000 Alright, we'll be right back.

00:57:48.000 We've got some Christmas news.

00:57:49.000 We'll have more news about the border.

00:57:54.000 We've done incredible things in our time, all of us in the Infowars community.

00:57:59.000 And that's why we're the number one target by tyrants worldwide.

00:58:03.000 And we could revel in our time, what we've already done.

00:58:07.000 But the real battle for the future of civilization is just now heating up.

00:58:11.000 That's why the censorship and the demonization and the tyranny is out in the open.

00:58:15.000 Because the controllers are scared.

00:58:18.000 Ladies and gentlemen, as we prepare to close out 2018, I cannot stress on you enough how I want to salute you.

00:58:25.000 I cannot stress enough how much I want to thank you.

00:58:28.000 I cannot stress enough how epic this battle is.

00:58:31.000 The globalists literally want to capture all of civilization, all of the life process, not just of humans, but of plants and animals.

00:58:39.000 They want to be God.

00:58:40.000 They want to play God.

00:58:42.000 They want to be omnipresent and surveil everything we do.

00:58:45.000 They want us to take microchips and digital barcodes to buy and sell.

00:58:50.000 So as we prepare to close out 2018, just remember, this life is a test.

00:58:59.000 And those of you that have been listening and watching and taking action, the victories of populism and nationalism and Christianity coming back from the dead and recognizing it's being persecuted, that's all because you are the core.

00:59:11.000 Listening to M4 wars around the world, the eyes and ears of liberty, that were immune or at least resistant to the globalist programming. 0.97

00:59:21.000 Everybody knows, who studies this, that it's Christians, real Christians, who tend to Be immune to the globalist brainwashing, and you tend to see it, and that's why they're trying to eradicate you.

00:59:32.000 But regardless, this fight is intensifying.

00:59:35.000 2018 has been insane.

00:59:37.000 2019 is going to be the big decision maker, and I am so honored to be here with you right beside me.

00:59:44.000 Not behind us, but right beside us, and at the heart of everything, resisting these globalists.

00:59:48.000 So whatever you do, take action and realize we're changing history together, and I salute you.

00:59:54.000 Leading a frontal assault on the lies of the New World Order. 0.76

00:59:58.000 It's Alex Jones.

01:00:00.000 News and news.

01:00:11.000 Analysis.

01:00:12.000 Reports.

01:00:13.000 It's the Alex Jones Show.

01:00:16.000 And now, your host, David Knight.

01:00:23.000 In this hour, we're going to talk about why President Trump actually can and must do something to move against the Federal Reserve.

01:00:23.000 Welcome back.

01:00:29.000 Whether firing the chairman is the right move or not, certainly he has cause to fire him.

01:00:36.000 When you look at what was done this last weekend, I reported before they announced that they were going to raise interest rates.

01:00:43.000 You had one economist say, and he's not the only one who said it, but I like the way that he put it.

01:00:47.000 He said, if they raise interest rates, they ought to all be fired.

01:00:52.000 For malpractice.

01:00:56.000 And that's exactly what it means to fire somebody for cause.

01:00:59.000 And we're going to talk a little bit in detail about what that clause about firing for cause actually means in the Federal Reserve Act that was surreptitiously enacted late at Christmas as most of the people had gone home.

01:01:14.000 Now we have a lot of action that is taking place in Washington, and yet I want to give you, before we Get back into that.

01:01:24.000 Some Christmas update news.

01:01:25.000 You know, we have Michael Moore.

01:01:26.000 I saw this today.

01:01:29.000 He has now put a Christmas tree topper on his Christmas tree this year.

01:01:34.000 And he's not going to honor anything that is Christian. 0.86

01:01:39.000 He's going to honor Ruth Bader Ginsburg, or as I call her, Darth Vader Ginsburg.

01:01:44.000 She's had yet another cancer scare.

01:01:48.000 But he says that His Christmas tree topper this year is better than an angel or a star over Bethlehem.

01:01:56.000 It is this Supreme Court justice.

01:01:59.000 This authoritarian.

01:02:02.000 And I said, you know, do you remember when, I tweeted this out on Libertarian, if you want to follow me on Twitter, that's my handle, Libertarian, not Libertarian, but Libertitarian.

01:02:11.000 I said, remember Obama's very first White House Christmas?

01:02:14.000 Everybody's freaking out about Melania Trump having red artificial Christmas trees or whatever as a style choice.

01:02:22.000 But they were bending over backwards to defend President Obama on his very first Christmas, December 2009, when he had ornaments that celebrated Mal and transgenders.

01:02:36.000 And of course what they did was they picked a guy who was already a controversial figure.

01:02:41.000 He was a creative director of Barney's New York.

01:02:47.000 And he had things that he would put up for displays.

01:02:50.000 Things like a Christmas window display of Margaret Thatcher as a dowdy dominatrix.

01:02:55.000 Dan Quayle as a ventriloquist dummy and so forth.

01:02:58.000 So who would you go to to do your Christmas decorations but somebody like that?

01:03:02.000 And what he came up with was Mal Christmas decorations. 0.99

01:03:05.000 Remember the pictures that they had?

01:03:06.000 I think they've been taken down now.

01:03:08.000 But also he put up an ornament of a legendary transvestite.

01:03:15.000 And just, you know, we're not supposed to be concerned about that.

01:03:18.000 And so I said, you know, when you look at this and you look at Michael Moore, you know, it was okay to celebrate Mao on Christmas. 0.63

01:03:23.000 It's okay to celebrate that other Marxist who has stood tirelessly to kill as many babies as possible as we celebrate the Nativity.

01:03:34.000 You can put somebody up there who has presided over the murder of children.

01:03:39.000 And I said, you can't find three wise men, or women for that matter, in the entire Democrat Party.

01:03:45.000 And it also tells you what their religion is, doesn't it?

01:03:49.000 Their religion is to worship government.

01:03:54.000 I also said, in China, you've got President Xi who demands that inside a church building, if they put up a crucifix, he demands that there be a picture of Mao.

01:04:04.000 Well, Obama would be proud, right?

01:04:06.000 He'd take it from Obama's Christmas tree.

01:04:08.000 No, you have a crucifix in your Chinese church, you have to have on one side a portrait of Mao and on the other side a portrait of President Xi. 1.00

01:04:16.000 But here, the useful idiots, like Michael Moore, worship government voluntarily. 1.00

01:04:23.000 They worship these authoritarians voluntarily. 1.00

01:04:26.000 You know, we had the first ever Arctic bank robbery they put out.

01:04:31.000 And I thought, is this climate change?

01:04:34.000 Are they talking about a snow bank?

01:04:36.000 I didn't know they had banks in the Arctic.

01:04:38.000 Actually, this is between Scandinavia and the North Pole.

01:04:42.000 They had an armed robbery there.

01:04:45.000 I don't know if they're taking away our climate or if they're taking away the cash.

01:04:50.000 Maybe that's where Santa Claus keeps his cash, right there at that bank.

01:04:54.000 Close to the North Pole.

01:04:55.000 Or maybe he's gone to crypto.

01:04:56.000 I don't know.

01:04:57.000 If he's gone to crypto, we may not even have a Christmas this year.

01:05:00.000 All right, we'll be right back.

01:05:01.000 I'm David Nice.

01:05:02.000 [MUSIC]

01:05:09.000 If the deep state and Robert Mueller and his allies now in the Democratic House succeed in destroying me, who will be

01:05:17.000 next?

01:05:18.000 You see, I've been targeted because I stood up for America, because I stood up for our president and his reform agenda.

01:05:26.000 And now I have no choice but to appeal to you.

01:05:29.000 I am very grateful for all those Americans who have stepped forward to help me so far in this extraordinary legal struggle.

01:05:36.000 But now I need your help as never before.

01:05:39.000 Please go to StoneDefenseFund.com.

01:05:42.000 Help me stand up for America.

01:05:44.000 Because if they get Roger Stone, you may be next.

01:05:48.000 The real truth can be found at InfoWars.com, StoneColdTruth.com, NewsWars.com.

01:05:57.000 InfoWars.

01:05:58.000 Tomorrow's news today.

01:06:00.000 Live from the InfoWars.com studios, you're listening to The Alex Jones Show.

01:06:18.000 And now, your host, David Knight.

01:06:21.000 Deep down in Louisiana, close to New Orleans, Welcome back.

01:06:27.000 You know, we have Michael Moore putting Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Darth Vader Ginsburg, up on the top of his Christmas tree to honor her.

01:06:32.000 Better than any angel, anything that has to do with Christianity, of course, right? 0.99

01:06:38.000 Maybe he just put, get the Mao decorations that are left over from the Obama administration from their Christmas tree.

01:06:45.000 But we have in Scotland something that I think is even crazier.

01:06:49.000 As we look at all of the political correctness that is surrounding the season, It goes beyond maybe it's cold outside.

01:06:57.000 I guess they are saying that in Scotland because it really is cold in Scotland this time of year, especially if you're wearing a kilt.

01:07:02.000 But I guess years of wearing a kilt has confused the Scottish Parliament on gingerbread men.

01:07:08.000 They have now banned the term gingerbread men because they said it promotes sexism.

01:07:13.000 So you've got to have ginger persons. 0.96

01:07:16.000 And we're not talking about redheaded persons, we're talking about... But you know, I think maybe they should just call them gender trans.

01:07:24.000 Because you know, these cookies don't have any genitals on them. 1.00

01:07:28.000 So there is no objective biological basis to determine what their sex is, right?

01:07:34.000 And especially even if you flare it out like a skirt or something.

01:07:37.000 I mean, they already have kilts in Scotland.

01:07:39.000 So we could just go just like real transgenders, right? 1.00

01:07:43.000 It isn't based on any genitals.

01:07:46.000 It's based on how you decorate them.

01:07:48.000 So you could just decorate them and they could be whatever gender you want it to be.

01:07:54.000 The gender-bred men. 0.99

01:07:55.000 Oh, I'm sorry, not men.

01:07:56.000 The gender-bred persons. 1.00

01:07:58.000 Gender-bred. 1.00

01:08:00.000 Yeah, maybe it's bred as B-R-E-D. 0.82

01:08:04.000 That's what they have bred into the minds of these kids that they have hammered this political correctness into for generations.

01:08:11.000 It's absolutely amazing.

01:08:13.000 In other Christmas news, I guess travel news, we have the TSA has made it official.

01:08:18.000 They're not about air safety at all.

01:08:20.000 It's never been about air safety.

01:08:23.000 It has always been about exercising control and harassing people.

01:08:27.000 It is theater.

01:08:30.000 It is security theater.

01:08:31.000 And we pointed this out years ago.

01:08:34.000 We had Jonathan Corbett do a lawsuit.

01:08:38.000 And he said, you have, he basically defeated the scanners, the body scanners that they had there.

01:08:44.000 And he sued them over that.

01:08:45.000 As part of his lawsuit and discovery, he was able to find that going back to 2011, they said there is no threat.

01:08:55.000 Against any airplanes or airports.

01:08:58.000 Now this was happening at the same time that Texas was pushing back on all this mandatory manhandling of children and so forth. 1.00

01:09:06.000 Sexually assaulting people as a precondition to traveling in the United States of America.

01:09:13.000 And you had the Texas House unanimously pass a bill that said you're not going to do that here.

01:09:19.000 That's an unwarranted search.

01:09:22.000 And so many different meanings of the word unwarranted.

01:09:26.000 And to push that back, you had the Lieutenant Governor here in Texas at the time, Dewhurst, a retired CIA guy.

01:09:34.000 He was a made man.

01:09:36.000 After he retired the CIA, they set him up in the oil business, the Bushes, and so forth.

01:09:40.000 He got very wealthy.

01:09:41.000 He spent more money than anybody's ever spent to get elected to statewide office here in Texas.

01:09:47.000 And then he spearheaded the move along with the federal TSA to shut that down in the Senate here in Texas.

01:09:53.000 But as they were doing that and threatening to turn Texas into a no-fly zone, they also had internal memos that said there is no threat to airports or to airplanes.

01:10:05.000 Now, how do we know that?

01:10:06.000 They also posted on Pacer.gov, where they put all the lawsuits up, they posted up on Pacer.gov, by accident, the unredacted lawsuit.

01:10:16.000 They didn't want you to see that.

01:10:17.000 And they left it up there for a while and we saw that and we reported it here at InfoWars.

01:10:22.000 We're the only news outlet that reported that.

01:10:23.000 Nobody else wanted to report what they wanted to cover up because they put that up for a while and then they took it down and they replaced it with their redacted version.

01:10:31.000 So we snapshotted both of those and said, oh, here's what they don't want you to know.

01:10:36.000 They don't want you to know that there is no threat.

01:10:38.000 So that's the reality of this.

01:10:40.000 But now it's gotten more obvious.

01:10:42.000 You know, one of the things that you could do to help security is to have air marshals.

01:10:46.000 On the planes.

01:10:46.000 And locks on the doors.

01:10:48.000 Simple stuff like that.

01:10:49.000 Instead of the big expensive machines that are going to bombard you with x-rays or the people are going to sexually harass you to travel.

01:10:56.000 No, you could have air marshals, undercover agents, and now they're going to basically blow their cover by saying they must sit in the back of the plane.

01:11:05.000 Why don't they just put a little sign around their neck? 0.92

01:11:08.000 You know.

01:11:09.000 Here are the air marshals.

01:11:10.000 Take them out first.

01:11:12.000 Again, it's not about air safety.

01:11:15.000 Air safety takes a back seat, literally, to controlling people.

01:11:19.000 We look at what happened at Gatwick Airport.

01:11:21.000 That was shut down for days.

01:11:23.000 They had hundreds of thousands of people that were camping out for a couple of days.

01:11:25.000 Couldn't move.

01:11:26.000 Why?

01:11:26.000 Because they had somebody flying drones.

01:11:30.000 Around the area.

01:11:31.000 Every time they would see the drone go up, they would shut down the air traffic because it was too dangerous.

01:11:37.000 They might hit them, might cause a crash of the plane.

01:11:40.000 And then they would go to get the drone and they would disappear.

01:11:43.000 And as they'd pull back, they would reappear some other place.

01:11:46.000 So it was obvious that they were playing a cat and mouse game with them.

01:11:48.000 They were doing it deliberately.

01:11:51.000 They said at the end of last week that they had used high-tech devices in order to find out who this was.

01:11:59.000 And they arrested a couple of people.

01:12:00.000 Paul Gate, 47, and his wife Elaine Kirk, 54, spent more than 36 hours being quizzed by detectives over the device that brought Gatwick Airport to its knees.

01:12:10.000 They then returned home today.

01:12:13.000 After friends and family insisted that they were not the eco-warriors behind the attack.

01:12:18.000 And they haven't been charged.

01:12:19.000 Though they were questioned for quite some time, they returned home without being charged.

01:12:23.000 Their friends and neighbors say they didn't do it.

01:12:26.000 So now it looks like for all their vaunted equipment, they had the wrong people.

01:12:31.000 And they sent them home.

01:12:33.000 President Trump, meanwhile, says drones are a lot of fun.

01:12:36.000 Maybe he did it.

01:12:37.000 No, CNN will probably blame it on him, but he has an alibi.

01:12:41.000 He was in the U.S.

01:12:41.000 at the time.

01:12:43.000 But he says, only a good old-fashioned wall works.

01:12:47.000 He's talking about the border.

01:12:48.000 Yeah, we can put drones up and we can watch the people that are coming across the border, but you can't stop them with a drone, right?

01:12:57.000 And you have to have some way to keep them from getting into the judicial system.

01:13:02.000 Because the judges will Work against our interests, and that's why we have this government shutdown.

01:13:02.000 Why?

01:13:08.000 And I hope it continues for a while.

01:13:11.000 President Trump has done the right thing, but President Trump needs to understand he doesn't even, he has more power than he even recognizes at this moment.

01:13:19.000 President Trump and White House Secretary Sarah Sanders have both now said, why is it that we can protect other countries, but we can't protect our borders?

01:13:27.000 They're getting very close to the answer.

01:13:30.000 The answer is that there is no problem.

01:13:33.000 You have the authority and the duty to protect our country at the border, President Trump.

01:13:39.000 And you don't need the permission of any judges to do it.

01:13:41.000 You don't need funding from the Mexican government to do it.

01:13:46.000 And you don't need funding even from the Congress to do it.

01:13:49.000 You have a defense budget.

01:13:51.000 How were we able to build a dozen military bases in Syria?

01:13:57.000 And for air bases in Syria.

01:14:01.000 How are we allowed to do that?

01:14:03.000 Where was the money appropriated specifically for that?

01:14:05.000 It wasn't.

01:14:06.000 In general, it was supposedly about the defense of our country.

01:14:09.000 I can make a much better case that we're defending our country at this border than you can about what's happening in Syria.

01:14:18.000 We're supposed to have a vote.

01:14:21.000 Before we invade another country.

01:14:23.000 We didn't have that vote under the Constitution.

01:14:25.000 So all the people saying that President Trump can't do this legally at the border because of posse comitatus or some other imagined legal obstacle to that.

01:14:34.000 Posse comitatus is about using the military as law enforcement in our country against our citizens.

01:14:43.000 This would be used to keep people who are not our citizens out of our country. 1.00

01:14:47.000 Because once they get in the country, They then become the wards of the activist federal judges.

01:14:55.000 And President Trump needs to understand that he has both the authority and the duty to protect our border.

01:15:01.000 And that means using the military, using military expenditures to build the border, to build the wall, if necessary.

01:15:08.000 I mean, even at the border.

01:15:10.000 Once the people come across, they said, all right, we're not going to separate families.

01:15:13.000 If somebody says that this is their child, we don't know.

01:15:16.000 We don't have any papers or any way to get any information about them.

01:15:19.000 So instead of separating them, we'll keep them together for a while until we can do some DNA testing or do something to try to determine who these people are.

01:15:28.000 They just showed up without any papers at our doorstep, wanting to be our dependents.

01:15:34.000 And where do they go for all that?

01:15:36.000 Well, they are taken to a military base.

01:15:39.000 Where do we find the authority to house people from other countries? 1.00

01:15:44.000 But we can't find the authority to keep them out of our country, to keep them out of our judicial system.

01:15:51.000 And then we got Jimmy Kimmel. 1.00

01:15:52.000 What a piece of excrement. 0.99

01:15:54.000 Mocking the people who are donating to this GoFundMe wall. 0.99

01:15:59.000 If our elected representatives won't fund it, we'll fund it ourselves.

01:16:02.000 Tucker Carlson The number two talk show host in the country on television, and who is a patriot and a very smart guy, is being Alex Jones right now in front of all of us.

01:16:16.000 They're building a straw man, demonizing him, lying about him, taking things out of context, so they can then take him off the air and then really start to run him into the ground.

01:16:28.000 In fact, it came out just a few months ago that in the internal Google documents, where they said ban Alex Jones, they also said ban Tucker Carlson.

01:16:36.000 He was right under me on the list.

01:16:38.000 And I could already see, once they deplatformed me, that they began to focus in on Tucker Carlson, that's why.

01:16:45.000 Talking to him off air, I've warned him.

01:16:47.000 I told him four months ago, I said, you are next.

01:16:50.000 He was already, obviously, covering all that on air.

01:16:54.000 And it's because he's got such credibility that the establishment is attacking him.

01:16:58.000 But let's look at what they're attacking him for.

01:17:03.000 He said that they create this national guilt that America is this evil, racist place, when we've been the most open nation to immigrants the world's ever seen.

01:17:11.000 In the days of Ellis Island, you would be held for three to six months, everybody, to make sure you didn't have any serious diseases.

01:17:19.000 But today we have George Soros and the UN and others that openly fund huge caravans coming into Europe and the U.S.

01:17:26.000 Where people show up with cholera, and leprosy, and drug-resistant TB, and hundreds of other horrible infectious diseases, and we're told, don't even screen them, let them into the country, and then, under Obama, let them be child-trafficked.

01:17:42.000 Senate report confirmed all of that.

01:17:44.000 Gave the children to child traffickers, because you can't even see who the kids are with, sometimes unaccompanied.

01:17:49.000 You've just got to let them in and put them on Democrat Party-controlled buses.

01:17:54.000 If we go back to 10 years ago, seems like ancient history now, Lou Dobbs had about 8-9 million viewers a night.

01:18:01.000 That's double what Sean Hannity has, he's number one.

01:18:04.000 Carlson's number two with 4 million.

01:18:06.000 And what was he talking about?

01:18:07.000 Globalism, open borders, the UN using migrants to invade countries.

01:18:12.000 He was going off their own documents.

01:18:14.000 Lou Dobbs was taken off the air because he was number one, because he was telling the truth that he was a patriot.

01:18:19.000 Now he's relegated to Fox Business with maybe a million viewers.

01:18:23.000 And Tucker Carlson is next, and then Sean Hannity.

01:18:26.000 People debate all the time about mass immigration.

01:18:30.000 What you never hear anybody do is make the economic case for mass immigration.

01:18:36.000 It's obvious that we need more scientists and skilled engineers, but that's not what we're getting.

01:18:40.000 Instead, we're getting waves of people with high school educations or less.

01:18:45.000 It's indefensible, so nobody even tries to defend it.

01:18:48.000 Instead, our leaders demand that you shut up and accept this.

01:18:51.000 We have a moral obligation to admit the world's poor, they tell us, even if it makes our own country poorer and dirtier and more divided.

01:18:59.000 So if you import the third world, you are making it more poor, more dirty, more divided. 1.00

01:19:05.000 Just like Democrat-controlled cities have feces everywhere, and needles, and the highest crime in every case.

01:19:11.000 Same thing with socialist countries overseas.

01:19:13.000 Because it's a system of dependency that they create.

01:19:18.000 So if Tucker Carlson's guilty of anything, it's for not going far enough.

01:19:22.000 It doesn't just make our cities dirtier and poorer and more divided, it makes them more dangerous.

01:19:26.000 Where San Francisco jury is letting an illegal alien that shoots a woman in the back go, because, well, she's white, we have to virtue signal. 0.96

01:19:34.000 This is the real cancer. 0.97

01:19:36.000 The left openly now has drag events for four-year-olds, gay bars, have little children dancing and having money thrown at them.

01:19:45.000 I mean, is there nothing we won't put up with, with the bullying of the left and their total cultural takeover?

01:19:51.000 If we don't start standing up for each other, we're going to lose everything.

01:19:54.000 Yesterday it was Alex Jones, now it's Tucker Carlson.

01:19:56.000 Just say no to these bullies now more than ever.

01:19:58.000 You're listening to The Alex Jones Show.

01:20:08.000 The Alex Jones Show.

01:20:14.000 Seems like yesterday, but it was long ago.

01:20:29.000 Welcome back.

01:20:30.000 Let's take a look at the wall.

01:20:32.000 Because we're told that there's not any money for the wall.

01:20:36.000 And I don't believe it.

01:20:38.000 Mark Meadows doesn't believe it.

01:20:39.000 He said we spend more money on sugar subsidies than we're asking for this.

01:20:45.000 And when you look at the total amount, as I mentioned, we spend four trillion dollars on the budget.

01:20:51.000 Five billion dollars is less than one-eighth of one percent.

01:20:57.000 So if you've got a dollar to spend, that's one-eighth of a penny, if you want to think of it that way.

01:21:02.000 But there's many other different ways that you can think about this.

01:21:04.000 I mean, we've got, as Daily Caller points out, the government lost more money bailing out General Motors than is being asked for for the wall.

01:21:15.000 According to a 2014 Special Inspector General report, American taxpayers took an $11.2 billion loss on its bailout of General Motors.

01:21:25.000 That's more than twice as much as they're asking for the wall.

01:21:28.000 After the automaker declared bankruptcy in 2009, the government invested $49.5 billion in the company with a 61% equity share.

01:21:37.000 Over time, GM's stock price dropped and despite selling back shares, the U.S.

01:21:42.000 government took these multi-billion dollar losses, over $11 billion.

01:21:46.000 Now, of course, General Motors was bragging about the fact That they had paid back all that money with interest.

01:21:55.000 And that was phony.

01:21:56.000 They had a couple of different accounts.

01:21:57.000 They had one that was a loan, and then they had another one that was an outright grant, which is what this is talking about.

01:22:02.000 They've just basically moved the money from one place to the other and said, look, we paid you back.

01:22:07.000 Kind of like what happened with the banks and the bailout system that we had with that.

01:22:12.000 The Federal Reserve obligingly took the interest rates down to 0% so they could pay back all that money with 0% loans.

01:22:20.000 They don't do that for you, do they?

01:22:22.000 Oh, that's right, they don't.

01:22:23.000 Yeah.

01:22:24.000 Especially if you've got a credit card this time of year.

01:22:25.000 You're going to be paying probably anywhere from 15 to 25% interest and they may go up on that if they say that you represent a credit risk to them.

01:22:36.000 Yeah, if somebody in your family gets sick and you have a health issue and they say, oh, your credit rating just went down, so we're going to go up on your credit card rate.

01:22:44.000 Yeah, we do live in Potterville, don't we?

01:22:49.000 Like it's a wonderful lie.

01:22:50.000 And I think like George Bailey, we need to say we shouldn't have to go crawling to the Federal Reserve, crawling to Congress in order to live our lives or to grow our economy.

01:23:00.000 And yet that's exactly what they're telling us.

01:23:01.000 We're going to tell you why President Trump can and should fire The Fed Chair.

01:23:07.000 In a little bit.

01:23:08.000 But let's take a look at some of the other things that we've spent money on.

01:23:11.000 We had the Big Dig.

01:23:14.000 Remember that?

01:23:14.000 Up in Boston?

01:23:16.000 They had a very big project up there, as I point out in Daily Caller.

01:23:23.000 It was Boston's primary thoroughfare.

01:23:26.000 And they rerouted it.

01:23:27.000 They had a lot of financial mismanagement.

01:23:29.000 They had design flaws in it.

01:23:31.000 The Federal Highway Administration stepped in and they gave them a bailout.

01:23:36.000 They said we'll give you $7 billion in grants.

01:23:39.000 But by the time it was completed in 2010, the total ticket price was $15 billion.

01:23:42.000 $15 billion. So we can build a failed thoroughfare in Boston that has bad design and mismanagement,

01:23:57.000 but we can't do it to our own wall.

01:23:59.000 Now I think the icing on the cake for me came when Jimmy Kimmel started making fun of the people who said, alright, Congress, we have voted multiple times for these sellouts like Mitch McConnell and John Cornyn.

01:24:13.000 Who refused to pass the money just a little bit of this.

01:24:18.000 I mean, we're talking about a situation where it's 215 miles is all.

01:24:24.000 And half of that has already got a fence there.

01:24:26.000 They'll be rebuilding that fence.

01:24:27.000 You know that works out to 23 million dollars a mile?

01:24:32.000 It's one of the reasons why we can't get anything done.

01:24:35.000 You look at what happened in the big dig in Boston and so forth.

01:24:38.000 If we were to try to build an interstate system today, we couldn't do it.

01:24:42.000 Why is that?

01:24:43.000 Have we forgotten the technology that is necessary to build something as simple as a road?

01:24:49.000 And I say as simple as a road because somehow we can in all of our cities.

01:24:53.000 We can build houses.

01:24:55.000 We can build skyscrapers.

01:24:57.000 But we can't figure out how to build simple things like roads and walls.

01:25:02.000 They're just too expensive.

01:25:03.000 We overthink, we over-engineer, and we over-spend on everything that the federal government does.

01:25:10.000 And why is that?

01:25:10.000 Why do they spend so much more money today?

01:25:13.000 Well, it's because of the bidding system.

01:25:15.000 It's because of the inherent corruption in the system.

01:25:18.000 These projects, these infrastructure projects, we can't get anything built because it is so bloated and corrupt.

01:25:26.000 This is why you got situations like Elon Musk with a boring project that he's got where he goes underground with it.

01:25:33.000 It's basically a good idea.

01:25:34.000 What I don't like about it is that Elon Musk's business model and his engineering idea is a great idea, quite frankly.

01:25:42.000 But his business model is always based on government subsidies from you and I and on monopolies.

01:25:52.000 And as you saw, the CBS reporter driving through that tunnel with them, and she was all excited about, oh, look at how fast this thing is going.

01:25:58.000 It seemed real fast to her because it was very enclosed.

01:26:01.000 They were only going 15, 20 miles an hour.

01:26:05.000 But as she's talking to him, he said, well, you're going to have to have this on autopilot to make sure you don't collide with others.

01:26:10.000 So all the cars will have to have my autopilot.

01:26:12.000 She didn't follow up on that.

01:26:14.000 So this is something only for people who buy your Tesla cars, right?

01:26:20.000 So everybody buy a Tesla car.

01:26:22.000 Or you'd have to buy some kind of, I guess, an add-on system or something that worked with an equivalent car.

01:26:27.000 So you'd have to buy into his operating system.

01:26:29.000 He's going to own that.

01:26:31.000 You have to have something like that, because you have to go vertical, as he pointed out.

01:26:37.000 He said, look, we're traveling in a two-dimensional space, but we're living in a three-dimensional space.

01:26:43.000 And the cities, they can't build the roads out, and they couldn't build the buildings out either, so they built the buildings higher and higher.

01:26:50.000 But they won't build the roads higher and higher.

01:26:52.000 That's what he's talking about, a two-dimensional space.

01:26:55.000 If you go back and you look at envisioning the future that they would have back in the 20s and 30s, the early movies of that, they would show skyscrapers everywhere.

01:27:03.000 Oh yeah, we got the skyscrapers.

01:27:04.000 And then they would show multiple layers of roads, which they never built.

01:27:10.000 They forgot to do that.

01:27:12.000 They didn't want to do that.

01:27:14.000 It got too expensive, too corrupt.

01:27:15.000 The only transportation infrastructure we're going to have now is going to be funded by billionaires who then have monopoly control of our system.

01:27:23.000 The government no longer wants to provide infrastructure.

01:27:27.000 Just like we see with this attitude about the border.

01:27:31.000 They don't want to do anything to serve us.

01:27:33.000 It's all self-serving about their interests.

01:27:37.000 And they will let the billionaires control everything that you do, they will be running the

01:27:44.000 security systems.

01:27:45.000 They will be monitoring everything that you do, taxing everything that you do.

01:27:49.000 The government is not going to serve you with infrastructure anymore.

01:27:53.000 And so when you look at his project, what he's basically doing is he is going three-dimensional

01:27:58.000 by being able to go underground. He can expand it three-dimensionally.

01:28:02.000 Makes perfectly good sense.

01:28:04.000 But it is a fascist economic model, where the government becomes increasingly more of a police state, a surveillance state, not interested with building infrastructure.

01:28:15.000 That will be owned and built by their crony capitalist friends, like Elon Musk or Jeff Bezos.

01:28:23.000 That's the sad part about that.

01:28:24.000 But getting back to the wall.

01:28:25.000 Getting back to what Jimmy Kimmel did.

01:28:27.000 We've got a clip of Jimmy Kimmel.

01:28:29.000 We're going to play that for you when we come back.

01:28:30.000 I went a little bit long on this.

01:28:32.000 And then we're also going to talk about why we should and could, President Trump could, end the Federal Reserve.

01:28:39.000 Stay with us.

01:28:39.000 We'll be right back.

01:28:45.000 Defending the Republic from enemies, foreign and domestic.

01:28:49.000 It's Alex Jones. If you study why InfoWars is public enemy number one for the globalist,

01:29:15.000 you understand why they're panicking.

01:29:18.000 You understand what they're scared of.

01:29:20.000 They're scared of nationalism.

01:29:22.000 They're scared of patriotism.

01:29:24.000 They are scared of people that will stand up for their sovereignty and who are territorial. 0.99

01:29:29.000 Because we have these multinational corporations that have slave factories, literal concentration camps in China, like Apple and others, who see us as weak and stupid, and they have this whole leftist ideology that's meant to basically weaken us and divide and conquer us, but it's not working anymore. 0.65

01:29:45.000 And the globalists have been able to track back where the main resistance in the last 20 years came from, And that main resistance has been my syndicated radio show, the documentary films we've made that have been seen hundreds of millions of times, and the other news operations that we've set up.

01:30:03.000 And that's why we're under such attack, and that's why we can't give up in the face of the globalist onslaught, because we've already launched the Americana movement, the new renaissance, 1776, worldwide.

01:30:14.000 It's happening!

01:30:15.000 This isn't a hoax!

01:30:17.000 This isn't hype!

01:30:18.000 Infowars is real!

01:30:20.000 That's why the enemy media is always saying we're a hoax, or always saying we're fake, or always saying we're a fraud, because they don't know how to counter something that's the opposite of them.

01:30:30.000 When they say we're a hoax or a fraud, they're talking about themselves.

01:30:35.000 Ladies and gentlemen, you can see us here in one of our new state-of-the-art studios.

01:30:39.000 I was planning by the end of 2018 to be 24 hours a day live.

01:30:42.000 On radio and TV.

01:30:43.000 And we only launched two new shows in 2018, CounterThink and The War Room, and they do a great job.

01:30:49.000 We also, right before that started, launched The Real News with David Knight.

01:30:52.000 And we've expanded in the face of the attacks, but I really, in the next three or four months, want to be able to go at least 20 hours a day live by the spring.

01:31:01.000 And that's going to take major support by you, the audience, to get around the censorship, to get around the boycotts, to get around, you know, the globalist lawsuits.

01:31:08.000 And you've been doing it So far.

01:31:11.000 But I need your prayers.

01:31:12.000 I need your support.

01:31:13.000 I need your word of mouth that's unstoppable and overrides the censors.

01:31:16.000 And I need you to go to infowarestore.com as we go into the new year where I'm going to extend all the Christmas specials that were the biggest in our history to sell out of all of our products so we don't have to pay inventory tax by January 1st.

01:31:29.000 Everything is We've got new shipments coming in in February.

01:31:32.000 We're going to be sold out of a lot of products until February because folks have been coming through.

01:31:36.000 But a lot of these products we're selling at below cost.

01:31:38.000 You get store-wide free shipping, a free t-shirt, 50 to 75% off, and double Patriot points on your next order to the 5%, 10% on each dollar.

01:31:46.000 These are our biggest deals ever because we're also coming online with a new sponsorship model to augment our sales direct so there's no way the globalists can shut us down.

01:31:55.000 We aren't just going to continue to fight.

01:31:57.000 We're going to win thanks to your steadfast prayer and financial support.

01:32:01.000 So again, the three pillars of this.

01:32:04.000 Praying to God.

01:32:06.000 Spreading the word about the articles and videos and taking action, or doing your own show, or doing both.

01:32:10.000 And then of course, ladies and gentlemen, financial support.

01:32:13.000 That's a three-legged stool.

01:32:14.000 You can also add reaching out to local radio and TV stations, thanking them, thanking their sponsors, becoming a sponsor.

01:32:22.000 As Christians and conservatives and nationalists, we're quiet people that are confident.

01:32:26.000 We're not like leftist bullies.

01:32:28.000 You don't have to bully anybody.

01:32:29.000 You've just got to have your voice be heard.

01:32:31.000 So, all the Christmas specials that we have are all extended until products sell out right through until January 1st, 2019.

01:32:40.000 Infowarsstore.com is the umbrella site for everything.

01:32:43.000 Infowarslife.com takes you right to the supplements.

01:32:45.000 These are amazing products.

01:32:46.000 Take advantage of them today.

01:32:47.000 And to all the listeners that have been supporting us for years, thank you.

01:32:50.000 What we've done to the globalists is thanks to you.

01:32:52.000 You are the Infowar.

01:32:54.000 You are the resistance.

01:32:56.000 You're listening to the Alex Jones Show.

01:33:09.000 [Music]

01:33:21.000 Broadcasting live from the U.N.

01:33:23.000 stronghold, Austin, Texas.

01:33:26.000 You're listening to the Alex Jones Show.

01:33:30.000 And now, your host, David Knight.

01:33:37.000 Welcome back.

01:33:38.000 You know, on Thursday we had Jimmy Kimmel along with Stephen Colbert.

01:33:44.000 He seems to be, these two guys, are the Democrat Party's court jesters.

01:33:51.000 And they're not really funny, but they are partisan and they are weaponized propaganda.

01:33:57.000 They follow the rules for radicals set up by Saul Alinsky.

01:34:00.000 One of those rules was that ridicule is the most powerful way to attack somebody, because as Alinsky said, there's no answer to it.

01:34:09.000 So what you do is you ridicule people.

01:34:12.000 And Jimmy Kimmel was ridiculing the people who wanted to have the wall built.

01:34:16.000 You know, we have had multiple elections where we've had people like Mitch McConnell and John Cornyn tell us, yeah, we're going to protect the border.

01:34:23.000 That's what we're about.

01:34:25.000 Or Paul Ryan, even though we know that Paul Ryan's been open borders all of his political career, he'll still campaign on getting control of immigration.

01:34:35.000 And they lie to us, time and time again.

01:34:38.000 And then we have the Supreme Court coming up with more rulings on Friday, saying that President Trump cannot stop illegal aliens at the border.

01:34:47.000 The only thing that's going to stop them, folks, is some kind of a physical barrier.

01:34:51.000 So the American people, especially one individual, Brian Kolfagi, I think is the way you pronounce his name, he was the triple amputee, lost three limbs in Iraq.

01:35:04.000 And he had a conservative blog or some kind of publication on Facebook.

01:35:11.000 And they had encouraged him to spend money promoting it.

01:35:14.000 He had spent over $300,000 at Facebook's urging to promote his conservative organization.

01:35:20.000 And then they just terminated him without any explanation.

01:35:23.000 Well, he's back.

01:35:24.000 And he's back with his GoFundMe campaign.

01:35:26.000 He wants to raise a billion dollars for the wall.

01:35:28.000 And people who voted for it are willing to pay for it as well.

01:35:31.000 And so Jimmy Kimmel can't ignore that.

01:35:33.000 It's gotten too big.

01:35:34.000 First time I saw this, I printed out an article from the preceding evening, and it was $400,000.

01:35:41.000 And then the next day I was reporting on it and I was on air and the crew came on and said, no, that's actually 4 million now.

01:35:47.000 I was like, what?

01:35:48.000 It grew by a factor of 10 in like 12 hours?

01:35:52.000 And then by the afternoon, we had a story that went up at Infowars.com.

01:35:56.000 It was up to 5 at that point.

01:35:59.000 The next day it was up to 10.

01:36:00.000 Now it is up to 16.2 million.

01:36:02.000 It grew $100,000 just in the last hour.

01:36:03.000 It grew $100,000 just in the last hour. So it can't be ignored. So what are they

01:36:10.000 going to do to try to stop it?

01:36:12.000 They're going to ridicule it. 0.98

01:36:13.000 They're going to use clowns like Jimmy Kimmel, who said this. 0.95

01:36:17.000 He said the twist in all of this, and the government shut down and so forth, is that the president might not need Mexico or Congress to pay for the wall at all, because there's some very dopey people ready to pay for it themselves. 0.96

01:36:30.000 And he talks about the GoFundMe campaign to the point he was mocking it.

01:36:34.000 It was only $9 million, but he said, a more useful thing to do with your money would be to go outside and feed it to a bird.

01:36:41.000 But you do have to admire the sacrifice that they're making.

01:36:43.000 I mean, a lot of these people are dipping into their meth money for this.

01:36:49.000 And on top of all that, Trump's Secretary of Defense, General Mattis, surprised everyone and resigned today, is what he said.

01:36:54.000 So, that is Jimmy Kimmel's take on all this.

01:36:58.000 Now, Ted Cruz is saying President Trump is not going to capitulate over this $5 billion demand.

01:37:05.000 As I said before, the sad thing about this is that with the inefficiency, the corruption, and the overspending and overengineering that is endemic to our government anymore, it's basically paralyzed when it comes to infrastructure.

01:37:20.000 We can't build the infrastructure, not only because we're spending so much money to destroy the infrastructure of other countries and undeclared wars, and rebuilding their infrastructure before we build ours, but it's also because we are so grossly inefficient at what we do.

01:37:33.000 I seriously doubt That if we go in and try to rebuild some of the infrastructure in Iraq or Afghanistan that we're paying the kind of money that we're paying for this wall.

01:37:41.000 $23 million a mile.

01:37:43.000 I seriously doubt that.

01:37:45.000 But there is no support.

01:37:47.000 The reason we have this GoFundMe campaign is because look at what the Republicans in Congress did.

01:37:52.000 People like Mitch McConnell.

01:37:54.000 As the Dallas News was pointing out on Friday, they said 60 senators Uh, do not support the so-called nuclear option, they said.

01:38:03.000 Uh, including Mitch McConnell.

01:38:05.000 Well, I don't know that it's 60 senators.

01:38:07.000 That is the nuclear option rule is 60 senators.

01:38:10.000 I don't think they had a head count.

01:38:12.000 Because you got the majority whip, John Cornyn, of Texas, where a vast majority of these people are coming in.

01:38:19.000 Doesn't want to protect Texas.

01:38:22.000 He wants to protect Washington.

01:38:25.000 See, John Cornyn would like to keep the Washington government that doesn't care about this existential threat to our country.

01:38:32.000 He wants to keep Washington going.

01:38:34.000 Let's open Washington and keep the border open at the same time.

01:38:37.000 We're not going to... Well, close them both.

01:38:39.000 John Cornyn said Trump's demand to end the filibuster reflects, quote, a desire for immediate gratification without regard for long-term consequences.

01:38:47.000 In other words, Trump's a baby.

01:38:49.000 Trump wants it right now, says John Cornyn.

01:38:51.000 Remember that, Republicans of Texas.

01:38:54.000 I'll remember that.

01:38:56.000 He was also mocking President Trump on other issues about the border, as well as foreign policy issues.

01:39:05.000 John Cornyn.

01:39:07.000 It's just absolutely amazing to see these people.

01:39:10.000 And of course, he's joined in all of this by people like Lamar Alexander and Jeff Flake.

01:39:15.000 I'm glad to see these people going.

01:39:19.000 It's about time that we see very clearly The people of the Republican Party who don't want this country to continue.

01:39:28.000 Mark Meadows said we spend more money on sugar subsidies.

01:39:32.000 I find it just incomprehensible that we can't secure our nation.

01:39:37.000 It's time we put this on President Trump's desk.

01:39:39.000 And they did, in the House.

01:39:40.000 Basically because of Mark Meadows.

01:39:43.000 It wasn't going to be brought up by Paul Ryan, but it was Mark Meadows going to President Trump.

01:39:46.000 And they did take it to a vote.

01:39:48.000 They did pass it.

01:39:48.000 But of course, Mitch McConnell shut it down.

01:39:52.000 And so as we, the other thing that happened on Friday, later on Friday, we had the Supreme Court, you had John Roberts joining the liberal colleagues on Friday to rule that President Trump cannot stop illegal alien invasion, as the New American pointed out.

01:40:08.000 In a two-sentence order, joined by Chief Justice John Roberts, who was appointed by Bush, The man who twice helped to rescue Obamacare, that's unconstitutional.

01:40:19.000 The court blocked the administration's attempt to stop illegal aliens from simply claiming asylum.

01:40:25.000 Now, any illegal alien who crosses a border can apply for asylum and the U.S.

01:40:28.000 government can't refuse to hear his case.

01:40:31.000 And so this is why you have to have a physical border to keep that from happening, to keep them in their country. 1.00

01:40:38.000 That's why using the military to keep them in their country is not a violation of posse comitatus. 0.59

01:40:45.000 It is a violation of the promise to defend our country not to use the military to do this.

01:40:51.000 You're keeping foreign citizens in their country. 1.00

01:40:55.000 You're keeping them from entering the country. 1.00

01:40:57.000 You're not using the military for law enforcement against American citizens inside the country.

01:41:02.000 You're keeping them from coming into the country. 1.00

01:41:06.000 That is the very thing that the military should be used for.

01:41:09.000 And as they point out, New American.

01:41:11.000 So here's a message to 158 million people in the world who want to immigrate to the U.S.

01:41:15.000 The door is open.

01:41:16.000 Come on in.

01:41:18.000 We know this.

01:41:19.000 Because we had a Gallup survey.

01:41:19.000 Why?

01:41:23.000 Went over a couple of years.

01:41:24.000 Went over 150 different countries.

01:41:27.000 They found 750 million people who want to change nationalities.

01:41:32.000 They are Trans citizens.

01:41:35.000 They identify as being a citizen of another country, therefore they are. 0.98

01:41:39.000 And we had more than three times as many people want to come to this country.

01:41:44.000 158 million people said, yeah, I think I'd like to go to America.

01:41:47.000 They had under 50 million say they'd like to go to Canada.

01:41:50.000 That was the number two destination of all of these transient trans citizens that are out there.

01:41:57.000 And so, they're not making this up.

01:41:59.000 That's 158 million people who told Gallup that they want to come to America.

01:42:03.000 Why not?

01:42:05.000 We've got a big welfare magnet to take care of them. 1.00

01:42:07.000 And we've got a Supreme Court that says that President Trump can't stop that.

01:42:11.000 Now, President Trump needs to understand, as he's taking on the presidential mantle this week, he needs to understand that he has the authority under the Constitution to do this and they can't stop him from doing that.

01:42:27.000 We have the example of Andrew Jackson who told the Supreme Court, you've made your decision, let's see you enforce it.

01:42:36.000 And that's what President Trump needs to tell the Supreme Court and especially all of these federal judges.

01:42:42.000 There's absolutely nothing in the Constitution that gives every single federal judge the power of veto.

01:42:50.000 To stop the president from doing his constitutionally delegated, specifically delegated power to protect our borders.

01:42:57.000 We'll be right back.

01:42:58.000 Stay with us.

01:43:03.000 Infowars has changed the world.

01:43:05.000 Our audience, by supporting us, have truly been in the arena.

01:43:09.000 That means if you're old, it means if you're young, it means if you're black, white, it doesn't matter. 0.79

01:43:13.000 If you love freedom, and you love justice, and you believe in free market capitalism, and you believe in the Christian ethos, and you believe in Western civilization, and you believe in progress, then you are the man and woman in the arena, and I salute you As we prepare to close out 2018.

01:43:28.000 I knew that when they deplatformed us in a massive, draconian, concerted, racketeering operation four and a half months ago, that it was about removing Trump's populist nationalist support base.

01:43:41.000 The people's support base for him.

01:43:45.000 And now we see, in just the last few weeks, Michael Savage is having his show cancelled from three hours to one hour, even though it has record ratings.

01:43:52.000 And Ben Shapiro, never been in talk radio, is being given his show, given his audience.

01:43:57.000 We see Gab McGinnis being taken off the air for being number one on CRTV, better than Glenn Beck, and others.

01:44:03.000 Anyone who truly connects with the people and who doesn't apologize for America, from our president to yours truly, is being demonized, being sued, being attacked, being taken off the air.

01:44:14.000 The globalists are really upset now because they threw everything they had at us in the last few years.

01:44:20.000 The shadow banning and the lawsuits, the lies, the attacks, the boycotting of our sponsors, and it didn't work.

01:44:27.000 So now with the deplatforming, we're on talk radio, we're on local TV stations, and we're at Infowars.com and Newswars.com with bigger than ever audiences.

01:44:36.000 On those platforms.

01:44:37.000 InfoWars has two or three times the audience ever had, but that's on InfoWars.

01:44:42.000 It cuts our reach, though, to other platforms.

01:44:45.000 And that's where you come in.

01:44:47.000 Now, about two weeks ago, George Soros Media Matters funded Combine, directed by U.S.

01:44:55.000 intelligence agencies that aren't following Trump's directives.

01:44:59.000 He legally began launching operations to lie about Infowars and things we've said and done, and to contact radio stations across the country that we're on and say, Alex Jones is fake news.

01:45:10.000 Alex Jones is fiction.

01:45:12.000 Announce it's fiction.

01:45:13.000 In an attempt to have those stations kick us off the air.

01:45:17.000 And they misquote statements from 2013, 2015 and say, he's still doing all this, take him off the air.

01:45:24.000 We're talking about digital Nazis, or digital communists.

01:45:28.000 Digital authoritarianism is really the proper term.

01:45:33.000 And they're doing this because they can't beat us.

01:45:36.000 And they know from Brazil, to Germany, to the United Kingdom, to Russia, to Italy, to all over the world, nationalist and populist free market candidates are getting elected.

01:45:47.000 People are aware of the one world government plan to abolish our borders, to abolish our families, to make us debt slaves.

01:45:53.000 And they're saying no.

01:45:55.000 That's positive.

01:45:55.000 We're winning overall globally.

01:45:57.000 Humanity's coming back from the dead, but...

01:46:00.000 For those of us that are the tip of the spear, we're being targeted to take out the leadership.

01:46:05.000 That's the globalist only hope.

01:46:07.000 So when you support InfoWars, when you spread our articles and videos, when you buy products at InfoWarsStore.com, you are literally not just supporting InfoWars and free speech and standing in defiance against Soros and Hillary and the rest of these people, but you are standing for your own future and your own best shot of having an early warning system in America to stand against these individuals.

01:47:08.000 [MUSIC]

01:47:26.000 Welcome back.

01:47:28.000 Before we get into why President Trump should, of course, fire The Fed's Chair Powell and how he has the authority to do that before we get into that and take a look at what's really involved here.

01:47:40.000 And I also want to talk about LeBron James' comment about the old white NFL owners have a slave mentality.

01:47:47.000 I'm going to tell you who the real slaves in this equation are. 0.54

01:47:50.000 It's not the millionaire players out there, of course.

01:47:52.000 A lot of people have made that point.

01:47:54.000 But they haven't really talked about who the people are who are really enslaved by these professional sports teams.

01:48:00.000 I'll give you a couple.

01:48:02.000 Seconds to think about who that is.

01:48:04.000 But before we get to that, before we talk about the Fed, I just want to remind you of the sales that we have at Infowarsstore.com right now.

01:48:10.000 We have brought back all of our 12 Days of Christmas specials, the 24-hour specials that we had, just like the song.

01:48:22.000 We have some things that are 75% off at InfoWarsStore.com.

01:48:26.000 We're trying to clear the inventory because there's a very large inventory tax here in Texas.

01:48:31.000 We want to get that done before the end of the year.

01:48:33.000 So we've got massive discounts.

01:48:35.000 We have free shipping storewide.

01:48:54.000 So take a look at what we've got at InfoWarsStore.com, folks.

01:48:56.000 This is a great opportunity to support InfoWars, to support the First Amendment, to support your health and preparedness and that of your family.

01:49:05.000 A lot of the things that we give at Christmas time are things just for momentary fun, but as we look at the new year and as people start to think about their health, this is a good time to educate your friends and family about how important it is to take care of their health.

01:49:19.000 We have a lot of very good natural products that will help you with that.

01:49:23.000 Let's take a look quickly now about this Fed issue.

01:49:25.000 Of course, we had President Trump, as Bloomberg was reporting over the weekend, had discussed firing Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell.

01:49:35.000 Four people familiar with the matter said, yeah, he's talking about this.

01:49:38.000 This isn't something that just came up, but this is something that was talked about more this week than it has been in the past.

01:49:48.000 Why?

01:49:48.000 Because we've got the Federal Reserve under Powell.

01:49:51.000 Raising interest rates yet again with a shaky stock market.

01:49:55.000 With housing markets across the country in very difficult situations.

01:49:59.000 We've had a lot of markets where, like in the Las Vegas market, they had over 7,000 homes that didn't get a single offer.

01:50:06.000 This is pretty much unprecedented.

01:50:08.000 But we have reports of slowing markets all the way across the country.

01:50:12.000 Dallas, New York, Florida, Las Vegas, other places.

01:50:16.000 It's getting shaky.

01:50:18.000 And then you have the Federal Reserve coming in and say, well, yeah, we're going to raise interest rates and I'm not going to stop.

01:50:23.000 I'm going to do more of it next year.

01:50:26.000 And now we have them trying to walk this back.

01:50:29.000 Even though they said that the president has talked privately, according to people that were familiar with the matter, four people they had talked to, Bloomberg said.

01:50:38.000 He talked privately about firing Powell many times the past few days, said two of the people.

01:50:43.000 They said any attempt by Trump to push out Powell would have a devastating ripple, undermining investors' confidence in the central bank's ability to shepherd the economy without political interference.

01:50:52.000 Come on.

01:50:53.000 Seriously, you think the Federal Reserve Is it interfering with our economy?

01:50:58.000 You've got a lot of confidence in the Federal Reserve after what they did?

01:51:00.000 You've got a lot of economists saying if they raised interest rates before they did, they'd all be fired for malpractice.

01:51:08.000 And then they go on to say this in the Bloomberg article.

01:51:10.000 It's unclear how much legal authority the president has to fire Powell.

01:51:13.000 No, it's not.

01:51:15.000 The Federal Reserve Act says that governors may be removed for cause by the president.

01:51:21.000 And then they go on to whine about the separation of politics from monetary policy.

01:51:24.000 You know, this wall of separation, like we have church and state or something, which is not in the Constitution.

01:51:29.000 And when Jefferson said that, he meant a wall around the government to keep them out of the church, not the other way around. 0.91

01:51:35.000 Nevertheless, the separation of politics from monetary policy is supposed to instill confidence that Fed officials will do what's right for the economy on the long term, rather than bend to the short-term whims of a politician.

01:51:48.000 So, how have they been doing in terms of managing the economy, folks?

01:51:54.000 I mean, look at the Great Recession that we had 10 years ago.

01:51:57.000 And then they turned around and did exactly the same thing again.

01:52:01.000 China is allowed to have 10% a year growth for 40 years.

01:52:06.000 They were just bragging about that.

01:52:08.000 This last week, we had President Xi saying, look at this, after Deng instituted his reforms, we've had 9.5% per year growth in China.

01:52:17.000 But here in America, according to the Fed and according to all these experts on Wall Street and Bloomberg, we are going to melt down.

01:52:24.000 We're going to have uncontrolled inflation if we have more than 2 or 3% growth.

01:52:30.000 If we get more than that, the Fed has to throttle down the economy.

01:52:34.000 Except that there's already signs that it's been throttled.

01:52:36.000 Maybe too much.

01:52:37.000 And they still continue to raise interest rates.

01:52:39.000 But why is it that China gets a pass?

01:52:41.000 Why is it that China can grow three to four times as fast as we can?

01:52:47.000 In the same way that they're allowed to have tariffs that are ten times what our tariffs are on their products coming into our country.

01:52:52.000 And when President Trump says, alright, you're going to either lower those tariffs or I'm going to raise our tariffs to your level, they say, look at what Trump is doing!

01:52:59.000 This is terrible!

01:53:00.000 He's going to destroy this country because he's raising tariffs up to the level the Chinese have. 0.96

01:53:04.000 Well, if you don't like high tariffs, then why do you like them when China does it?

01:53:08.000 If you don't like high growth, why do you allow China to have it?

01:53:11.000 It's because the Federal Reserve and these globalists don't care about America.

01:53:16.000 And I think that we have to come crawling to them for permission.

01:53:20.000 I said this the day after the election.

01:53:24.000 People were talking already about whether or not Trump would fire Janet Yellen.

01:53:28.000 Wall Street was writing stuff.

01:53:28.000 They said, oh, no, he's not going to do that.

01:53:30.000 We've got to keep the Fed independent.

01:53:32.000 He's not going to fire Janet Yellen.

01:53:34.000 And then on December the 14th, 2016, after President Trump was elected on November the 8th, This article from Fortune said Janet Yellen and the Fed rise interest rates for the first time in 2016.

01:53:46.000 At that time, they said they're going to raise it by a quarter of a percentage point to a half a percent, between a half a percent and three quarters of a percent.

01:53:57.000 Now they've just done it again.

01:53:59.000 It is now up to two and a quarter to two and a half percent.

01:54:03.000 So they've gone from a half a percent to two and a quarter from three quarters of a percent to two and a half percent.

01:54:09.000 Why?

01:54:09.000 How did they get there?

01:54:10.000 They've been raising it a quarter every quarter.

01:54:13.000 A quarter of a percent every quarter.

01:54:17.000 Since right after President Trump got elected, I said at the time, I talked about it day after day after day.

01:54:24.000 When they did it the very first time, I said, we have seen this pattern.

01:54:26.000 I said, you watch.

01:54:27.000 They're going to do it a quarter per quarter until they burst the bubble that they created.

01:54:32.000 It's exactly the same thing that Greenspan did.

01:54:34.000 And they've been doing that.

01:54:35.000 As Gateway Pundit pointed out, The Fed and Jerome Powell have increased annual U.S.

01:54:41.000 debt by half a trillion dollars just in the interest payments by raising these interest rates from a half a percent to two and a half percent.

01:54:50.000 It's a hundred times what President Trump wants for the wall.

01:54:53.000 So they can't find five billion dollars to pay for the wall.

01:54:57.000 But supposedly, you know, we can have welfare payments that are going to pay for all the immigrants who come in. 1.00

01:55:03.000 And we have interest rates that have been raised, so that's going to be another $500 billion more that we have to pay to service that interest rate.

01:55:13.000 Is that something that would fall in the category of firing the Fed for cause?

01:55:20.000 They said after he tanked the U.S.

01:55:21.000 economy by $4 trillion and wiped out one-sixth of the market, is that something that we could fire him for?

01:55:28.000 This is what Powell has done.

01:55:29.000 He had his October the 3rd speech.

01:55:31.000 He said the economy, he's going to continue to raise interest rates, he said at that point in time.

01:55:37.000 And then you have Others say the president cannot do it over disagreement over monetary policy.

01:55:44.000 What does it mean when you say you're going to fire somebody for cause?

01:55:46.000 You know, you have two different ways that you work for somebody.

01:55:48.000 You either have at-will employment contracts, which means that you can leave at will or you can be fired at will.

01:55:54.000 Nobody has to give the employee or the employer doesn't have to give a reason.

01:55:58.000 If you are somebody like a CEO, you know, like Les Moonves, you know, you get a contract.

01:56:05.000 And they can't fire you.

01:56:06.000 You know, if you're Megyn Kelly or some other big executive, they can't fire you without violating that contract. 0.97

01:56:10.000 So they have to show that you have done something wrong.

01:56:15.000 So if you have a contract, you're going to be fired either for cause or for misconduct.

01:56:20.000 And those are two different things.

01:56:21.000 If we take a look at what this means, termination for cause, according to the U.S.

01:56:27.000 legal website, it refers to the expiration of a contract when one side fails to act in the terms of the contract.

01:56:34.000 Termination for cause can result from work not being done or being done incorrectly.

01:56:38.000 Do you think that wiping out $4 trillion of equity in the stock market, one-sixth of the stock market, do you think that that's doing your work correctly?

01:56:48.000 Or is that something that President Trump could fire them for?

01:56:52.000 Does it look like they're incompetent or malicious?

01:56:54.000 That's the question.

01:56:55.000 The only question in my mind.

01:56:57.000 The other thing is serious acts or omissions committed by an employee that adversely affect the company's business in a material respect.

01:57:03.000 So that would be what you would have in a corporation when you talk about for cause.

01:57:08.000 That's exactly what they're talking about.

01:57:09.000 Now, misconduct is something else.

01:57:11.000 Most of these people who are saying that President Trump can't fire the Fed chair say, no, no, he has to commit a crime or something.

01:57:16.000 He has to have a Me Too violation or something like that before we get rid of him.

01:57:22.000 And as long as he doesn't have a casting couch, we're Janet Yellen and we can't get rid of him.

01:57:26.000 Now typically, in these contracts, they include misconduct.

01:57:32.000 Things like intentional wrongdoing or malfeasance or violation of a law or violating work and safety or harassing somebody.

01:57:39.000 They typically include that.

01:57:40.000 But it doesn't Limit itself simply to criminal actions like that.

01:57:45.000 Alright, that's all the time we've got.

01:57:47.000 Thank you for listening.

01:57:48.000 Stay tuned.

01:57:48.000 We've got Mike Adams coming up.

01:57:50.000 And I want to wish everybody a Merry Christmas.

01:57:52.000 Many of you watching or listening have either been completely banned off social media or you have been censored.

01:58:02.000 And we've seen thousands of prominent voices banned off Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Google, Instagram in the last two years.

01:58:12.000 It all started the day after Hillary Clinton, who outspent Donald Trump 10 to 1 in the 2016 election.

01:58:22.000 America was supposed to be all sewed up for the culture war. 0.99

01:58:26.000 With the deindustrialization, the demoralization, but it didn't happen the way they'd planned it.

01:58:32.000 And so now they've announced Michael Savage, 20-something years on air, number one in his slot nationwide, is having his show canceled and replaced with Ben Shapiro, who's never even had a talk show on the radio.

01:58:45.000 Now we see they're trying to take Tucker Carlson off the air.
