Wed Episode #2229: Hegseth Called Iran Dead — He Was Wrong

from The REAL David Knight Show · host David Knight

──────────────────────────────────────── [01:02:09:25] FCC Bans Foreign Wi-Fi Routers — Real Motive Is Government Backdoor Access The FCC is banning most foreign-made routers under a national security pretext, with the argument made that the real intent is replacing foreign surveillance backdoors with domestic government ones — part of a broader pattern of banning 3D printers, open source software, and foreign drones. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:17:09:22] Trump Is the Father of Mail-In Voting Fraud — Then Cast a Mail-In Ballot Himself Trump, who championed universal mail-in voting in 2020 and is now pushing legislation to restrict it, chose to vote by mail himself in a Mar-a-Lago special election despite being eligible to vote early in person — a direct contradiction his own Save America Act campaign is built on. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:22:05:24] Three States Introduce Bills Designating mRNA Injections as Weapons of Mass Destruction Minnesota, Arizona, and Tennessee have introduced legislation classifying mRNA COVID shots as biological weapons of mass destruction. Tennessee's bill makes manufacturing or distributing them a Class B felony, with violations treated the same as possessing a weapon of mass destruction. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:39:46:10] Polymarket Accounts Making Suspicious Pre-Announcement Bets on Iran Ceasefire Following the $1.5B stock and $192M oil insider trades from the previous day, new suspicious bets are appearing on Polymarket — an offshore platform outside US jurisdiction — on Iran ceasefire outcomes, with the pattern matching advance knowledge of Trump's announcements. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:49:10:22] Former MI6 Chief: Iran Has the Upper Hand — US Underestimated the War From the Start A former MI6 senior officer states Iran is winning, having spent 20 years preparing for this attack by dispersing military assets and delegating weapons authority. He says Iran has successfully globalized the conflict and is using the energy war as leverage while the US has lost the strategic initiative. ──────────────────────────────────────── [01:59:48:25] Nancy Mace to Lindsey Graham: You Have No Kids — Stop Sending Ours to Die in Iran Rep. Nancy Mace directly attacks Graham and Cruz for pushing ground troops into Iran, noting Netanyahu's son is living in Miami while American children are sent to war. Ted Cruz admitted to riding with Trump the day before the attack and personally urging him to launch it. ──────────────────────────────────────── [02:02:46:20] Ted Cruz Admitted He Urged the Iran Attack — Didn't Know Iran's Population or Topography During a Tucker Carlson interview, Cruz revealed he didn't know Iran's population, land area, topography, or military structure before urging Trump to launch the war. Reuters confirmed Trump approved the strikes after speaking directly with Netanyahu. ──────────────────────────────────────── [02:04:12:09] Netanyahu's Calculated Bet: Drag America Into a Losing War to Reshape the Middle East Before US Dominance Ends Analysis is presented that Netanyahu may have intentionally dragged the US into a costly war knowing American global primacy is ending — extracting maximum military value from Trump before the US-Israel relationship becomes strategically worthless in a multipolar world. ──────────────────────────────────────── [02:11:24:24] Iran Offers to Let Chinese-Paying Ships Through the Strait — Setting Up a Petroyuan to Replace Petrodollar Iran is allowing ships paying in Chinese yuan to transit the Strait of Hormuz, effectively using the war to establish a Chinese-backed petrocurrency system — a direct structural challenge to US dollar dominance in global energy markets. ──────────────────────────────────────── [02:21:14:21] Axel Springer Buys the UK Telegraph — New Owner Declares Support for Israel as Editorial Condition Germany's largest media conglomerate Axel Springer has acquired the UK's Telegraph newspaper. The CEO's public statement explicitly declares support for Israel's right to exist and opposition to anti-Semitism as a core editorial position, raising concerns about further consolidation of pro-Israel media ownership. ──────────────────────────────────────── [02:27:32:16] JP Morgan Paid $920M for Rigging Precious Metals Markets — Nobody Went to Jail JP Morgan Chase admitted wrongdoing and paid over $920 million to settle federal charges for years of precious metals futures manipulation, offered as direct precedent for understanding current gold and oil market manipulation tied to Trump's war announcements. ──────────────────────────────────────── [02:55:51:10] Hegseth Declared Iran's Leadership Dead and Powerless on March 4th — They Immediately Launched a Major Strike Just days after the war began, Hegseth publicly declared Iran's senior leaders dead, its governing council destroyed, and its military unable to communicate or mount any offensive — statements immediately contradicted by a large-scale Iranian missile barrage, with a retired major general calling his conduct that of a potential war criminal. ──────────────────────────────────────── Money should have intrinsic value AND transactional privacy: Go to https://davidknight.gold/ for great deals on physical gold/silver For 10% off Gerald Celente's prescient Trends Journal, go to https://trendsjournal.com/ and enter the code KNIGHT Find out more about the show and where you can watch it at TheDavidKnightShow.com If you would like to support the show and our family please consider subscribing monthly here: SubscribeStar https://www.subscribestar.com/the-david-knight-showOr you can send a donation throughMail: David Knight POB 994 Kodak, TN 37764Zelle: @[email protected] App at: $davidknightshowBTC to: bc1qkuec29hkuye4xse9unh7nptvu3y9qmv24vanh7Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-real-david-knight-show--5282736/support.
