TOM DEWEESE 9-29-26 HAMILTON, MT SPEECH

.

TOM DEWEESE: Thank you very much. I’m very pleased to see all of you here tonight, and what we’re going to talk about is probably the most important, most talked about issue worldwide. I believe, at this point, that it’s happening. It’s going to take me some time to get through a lot of this. I want to give you a good background of what it’s all about, so I hope you’ll bear with me on that to get into it. And before I get started, I just want to tell you one thing. For 35 years, I have been researching and fighting the environmental movement, the women’s movement, the animal rights movement, all of these, and I said at the beginning, and I’ve said it for 35 years, that none of those organizations really were about what they said they were about. They were not about protecting the environment, they were not about saving the, you know, the animals, and certainly the women’s movement was not about improving the lives of women. And now, today, as we’re looking at what’s happening, as we’re moving now towards one billion robots, now we know man also doesn’t matter.

I believe the American people and their every action are being ruled, regulated, restricted, licensed, registered, directed, checked, inspected, measured, numbered, counted, rated, stamped, censored, authorized, admonished, refused, prevented, drilled, indoctrinated, dishonored, fleeced, exploited, assessed, and taxed to the point of suffocation and desperation. That is what it’s all brought us to. This AI debate is raging across this nation. There are those who believe that it is the greatest thing that has ever happened to human society. We need more, more, more. There’s no question that there are major parts of this new technology that can provide some amazing advancements to our lives, and it certainly can enhance research bringing together major related details. I mean, you know, pull up things, you can ask your phone questions and then, you know, things come up and there’s nothing wrong with that as it comes up. Although, I have been learning now, and it didn’t surprise me at all, that a lot of the information that it brings up is politically biased. Golly, how did that happen?

Digital AI systems are being presented as the future for convenience. That’s one of the major words they use, efficiency and security. Military development is a major focus, and so is healthcare. And, you know, there are drives, we hope, maybe, finally, they will allow us to cure cancer, because we could have done that a long time ago before any computer had ever invented. But at least maybe now, there might be some progress on that.  We’re told that life is going to be much easier. We will all be more informed, and all of life’s problems will have a solution right there at our fingertips.

But, some of us believe caution must be enforced, as this unknown entity may represent the greatest threat to individual freedom ever conceived. To begin with, this is the most important question you must ask. As people are trying to fight this, you’re talking about the electricity that’s being used, and the water that’s being used, and how big the buildings are, and all of that. But, yeah, those are results of it. But the number one question is, why are they so massive in these facilities? You must understand the goal to understand the tactics.

What is the purpose? Why the rush to suddenly cover the nation with more than 5300 of these compounds and many, many more on the way?  To put it bluntly, the massive centers are a major tool and a drive to build a system to collect and store every single piece of information that makes up human society. That includes the power to track each individual’s biometrics and every daily action, everything you do during the day, health records online, social media postings to every bank account, everything you do in your bank account, and transactions, what you eat, where you are, you know, where you’re going to travel. Even the TV shows that you watch worldwide, all parked in the technical cloud.

There are many more reasons to be concerned about this technological explosion that is currently leading to a huge change in our society. It’s the reason every aspect must be examined, considered, questioned, and controlled because AI isn’t a harmless upgrade, but can be the foundational tool for building a government system of control that none of us has ever experienced. For many years, I have, as I said earlier, I’ve been warning of the drive toward a global governance that will erase any individual’s hopes, dreams, or personal goals that you may have for your life. I mean, why do you live? What’s the purpose? Why? People have goals. They have excitement in their life when they think of these things.

It started with the UN’s plan they called Agenda 21.

It was sold as a, ready, comprehensive blueprint for the reorganization of human society. They said that in 1992. Could it be any clearer what their goal is? But, oh, when we started to attack it, what did we get? The Southern Poverty Law Center has done four separate reports on me, saying that I have spread hate speech about a voluntary suggestion to just help the environment. A comprehensive blueprint to reorganize human society. .

Well, they got theirs recently, didn’t they? You know, it’s funny. Many times, when I get introduced, I come up and the crowd is really enthusiastic and so forth, and I tell them, the Southern Poverty Law Center has done four separate reports on me. I always got the loudest applause of the night.  A few years later, after they introduced it in 1992, the UN updated it to Agenda 2030. It contained 17 specific details to achieve this reorganization. It was the same plan; they just got more detailed as they went along. These details are now being imposed in local government in their programs under the label of Sustainable Development Goals or SDGs. You can look it up in your local government and you will see SDGs.

Here is the full master plan for the reorganization of human society. The main targets are free enterprise, private property, and personal choice. Some of the things they’re using, 15-minute cities. We’re housed in high-rise apartments. Moving people out of the rural areas, out of just outside of out of the city, you know, your neighborhoods. Getting rid of zoning protections for private property owner of single-family homes. Moving people into high-rise buildings. All centered in the center of town. Why? Because there they can control the energy you use. They can control where you travel, who you associate with. They know every single thing about you.  Have any of you heard of C-40 cities? Anybody heard of that?

This plan promotes zero meat and dairy consumption by 2030.  Zero private vehicles owned by citizens. Only one short-haul air flight per person every three years. And three, this is your ladies, three new clothing items per person per year. Funded mainly by billionaire Mike Bloomberg. Who, by the way, I read the other day he’s got 52 cars and his own jet to get around.

100 cities in the world have signed on. In the U.S., at least 10 cities have signed up saying, Hey, yeah, I work for all that. And what are they? Oh, here’s some shockers.

Austin, New Orleans, New York City, Philadelphia, Phoenix, Portland, San Francisco, Washington, D.C., Cleveland, and Seattle. All of their mayors are calling for a sustainable urban data center. You see how it all begins to come together? It all moves forward through public-private partnerships. Partnerships between government and these private corporations. That is not free enterprise. That is right out of the Mussolini fascist playbook. These corporations use their power of playing games with the government to help put their programs together. And too many times, put their competition out of business.

The Great Reset author of the World Economic Forum, Klaus Schwab, explained it all very clearly when he said, “Eventually, only a few corporations will survive. And then he explained, ‘YOU WILL NOTHING AND BE HAPPY.’” Now, people are hearing that all over. But what’s important here is only a few corporations will survive. It’s now becoming obvious what he meant and why it will be so. His great reset is total annihilation of our founders’ vision of freedom through private property, free enterprise, and personal choice. But what they’re doing is, you just watch, one corporation buys another corporation, buys another corporation, buys another corporation. I believe, where they’re headed, where this will go with these public-private partnerships is, you will eventually have one corporation that produces food, one corporation that produces transportation, one corporation that produces energy. You get the picture? That’s what he meant. Only a few will survive. Because they played ball with us. Digital ID systems, implemented through government and corporations, will have the unprecedented power to track, monitor, and control every aspect of your life, from your money and healthcare to your social connections.

Bill Gates has threatened that digital ID must be accepted by US citizens by 2028, or they risk exclusion from society.

Now, where did they learn something like that? Could it be working with China? Because they’re experts at it.

That means controlling where you can travel. They will monitor who you associate with, what you spend your money on, and even what you believe in politically. Oh, there’s a China thing. Sound familiar? It also calls for controlling the money supply. In your bank, the move is on to replace cash with digital currency. The account can be closed at any time and the money confiscated. Because in reality, there is no money. It’s just pretended wealth controlled at the whim of a government bureaucrat.

Do you fully understand what NO CASH means? How you will be personally affected? Cash won’t exist. Working under government regulations, banks will have full control of every single dollar in your accounts. Every transaction will be recorded. You will control nothing. And the goal is one big global account. That’s where they want all that money to go.

Every action you take in your account will be blocked if they have any questions about a transaction. That’s already happened to some conservative organizations. Their accounts have been closed by banks or blocked. And they’ll be able to freeze all of your accounts when you do that. But it’s all for your own good, of course. We’re just looking after you. I love that line. And let’s not forget, if the electric grid goes down, you will have no money, period.

One excuse used to enforce the cashless society is the continued drop in the value of cash and the huge expense to produce our coins and our dollar bills. The government just stopped making pennies. What’s next?

The real solution must be to return our dollar to the gold standard. Paper dollars were originally created as certificates to represent real value that was behind them. Then genius Richard Nixon took us off the gold standard. The value of the paper dollar was exposed. And they now lose value on a daily basis, propped up only by government lies. Have you ever heard the joke that says only government can take a valuable commodity like paper and put ink on both sides of it and render it worthless? That’s our money.

So, government’s answer now is to move all our wealth into a worthless computer where nothing is there to represent financial value. In that system, there will be no free market, no personal wealth, no private property that holds any kind of value. Our whole nation will become the tyrannical copy of today’s New York City under its new communist mayor. The goals of Agenda 2030 achieved.

Public safety is another promise offered from the AI revolution. You know, we now have cameras almost everywhere catching us if we speed. Of course, they tell us this is for speeding. With the new AI technology, there are now more than 120,000 flock cameras across the nation recording everyone you interact with, everything you do, think and say. These AI-enhanced cameras can analyze video to detail facial recognition and detect unusual behaviors. I like that one. And they can track any item in your car that gives off a Bluetooth signal, including cell phones, smart watches, and earbuds.

The excuse is that they now can stop crime before it happens.

Does that concern you?

A quote from Oracle founder Larry Ellison says it all. He said, A vast AI-fueled surveillance system can ensure citizens will be on their best behavior.

In AI justice system, you will be guilty until proven innocent.

Flock cameras are the most visible proof to the goal of building the dangerous surveillance society.

AI enables it, all parked in the technical cloud. To collect and store such a huge amount of information requires a massive amount of equipment and space. Can it be any clearer? That’s why data centers are so huge. To collect and store such huge amounts of information requires a massive amount of equipment and space. Most data centers require huge amounts of land for their massive buildings. Plus, in many states, there are multiple data centers all in one area. This is the root of the massive water and electric use. Thousands of acres of vital farmland are being put under roof.

I love this. We were all told that by the environmental movement, which, as I said earlier, had nothing to do with the environment. They told us that we needed all of this open space for the animals to have, the species to have habitat, for the air to breathe, for all of that. But then, the correct electrical use at that time was wind and solar, which put all of that land under plastic, you know, shields. And now, what’s left from that, they’re putting it under roof with these massive data centers.

Noise pollution caused by loud, throbbing sounds from the equipment in the centers is disrupting once peaceful neighborhoods. Property values are another issue affecting local citizens. Imagine you live in a beautiful, quiet area. Suddenly, you learn a massive data center is being built within 400 yards of your house. (.) Or, you live in a nice neighborhood with several hundred homes or townhouses, and now one is being built right on the edge of your street. As it goes into operation, there is a constant, loud humming from the equipment inside. 24 hours a day.

You hear it. You try to sleep. You can’t. You can’t sit in your yard and enjoy a cookout with your neighbors.

Science is now reporting that these centers are changing the atmosphere in the neighborhoods, especially when multiple centers are gathered together in place. Now, again, the environmental movement said man was destroying the planet, and there was no evidence of that whatsoever until they built the data centers. Yep, now it’s true.

AI data centers can cause climate warming of their surrounding areas as much as 9.1 degrees Celsius. The environment, quality of life, and property values are all affected. Yet, no panic from Greta Thunderburg. How dare you?

Electrical use to feed the centers is causing damage to power grids and local community needs. Life is changing, and people are upset. Golly, these are the reasons why thousands of American citizens are rising up in opposition to the AI data centers in their communities. Their actions are based completely on personal experience and concerns over how these huge facilities affect their lives and their local culture and their community. The once beautiful farm community now has 20, 30 of these things up there humming at them, taking all the land. As a result, in just the past several months, opposition to the data centers has become the largest, fastest growing, and most effective grassroots movement I have ever experienced in my decades of activism.

Polls show 70% of Americans are opposed to these massive facilities. Action has been taken in at least 40 states to delay if not ban the building of more than 50% of these facilities, and opposition is growing. Large numbers of residents are showing up at local city council meetings and state capital rallies demanding that their elected representatives take action to protect their way of life. In some communities, citizens have managed to remove from office these elected officials who have ignored their pleas. That got their attention.  As the opposition has grown, the corporate forces behind the data centers have started to panic, desperate to stop this never-before-experienced opposition. As they have vast fortunes to promote their positions and influence local and state politicians. It has always worked before. Ah, a few dollars in the right pockets and a vague argument? That’ll do the trick. So, here are the arguments that they are pushing on your local representatives. First, we must beat China on the development of AI. The nation which leads in AI will rule the world. Do you want America to rule? 

So, that says it all. China is the villain that must be defeated. Next, the claim that it must be the radical left. I love this one. Which is behind these protests designed to stop AI development for American security. Yep, let’s go with that. The radical left that I have fought for 59 years. And, of course, with that argument, then we conservatives will eat it up. Oh, China’s the enemy. The radical left is doing it. Oh, we’ve got to stop this wonderful thing and help them stop these crazy communist-supported opposition to our data centers. There are people who are believing this and some of them are mainstream conservative organizations. And so, it begins. Suddenly, reports have emerged that China is paying for the opposition to the data centers. How else could it have grown so fast? And China is obviously bussing their supporters to these opposition rallies.

In the cities, locally elected representatives are telling their citizens that data centers will bring jobs and property tax money to build local prosperity. Building data centers, they say, show that we have a strong workforce and an infrastructure for the future. All of that is the corporate sales pitch that they’re hearing in backroom meetings. Plus, they contend we need data centers to keep your computers and your cell phones communicating on social media. We all need this new technology. They assure us. It’s funny how we’ve managed for decades, you know, without these massive data centers. We’ve had our cell phones. We’ve had our computers. We’ve had all kinds of other things that have been done. And we didn’t have these massive buildings. They did have, and they will come up with this, if you try to argue this, they will come up and say, we’ve had data centers all that time. Yeah, that’s the term they used for an office setup that was collecting computer information and having it in there. And those, some of those still exist. They weren’t bothering anybody. We’d walk by one of those things. We didn’t know what was going on there. So what? But now, we’ve got these massive, massive buildings.

However, even if your reps agree that there are some problems with the data centers, elected representatives tell us that there is nothing that they can do about it because non-elected boards and commissions have told them so. Another fear that they must go along with the corporations, if they don’t, the corporations will sue them, sue the city, and they can’t afford an expensive legal fight. That’s a major issue they’re using. And some files and lawsuits have been filed. In addition, during controlled public meetings, where citizens are not allowed to speak or challenge the corporate spokesman, they assure us that their facilities now have new processes that no longer use so much water and electricity. That’s just old news that happens. Funny how that old news just popped up in the last year or so. Well, there you go. Problem solved. Let’s just get back to building the future. Well, unfortunately, not one of these statements is true.

I have been working across the nation with local citizens involved in opposition to the data centers. As I’m actively involved in helping to build these protests, I have seen no evidence of China money or organized leftist protestors being bussed in to protest the data centers. My experience clearly shows these are just residents who want to be heard. They’re just folk, like you, suddenly having something come into their lives that they want something done about. And let’s not ignore the fact that the corporations are pushing local reps to sign non-disclosure agreements to keep their plans secret. Now, who is operating in stealth? Who’s honest? Who’s not? Well, let’s get to the truth.

Let’s start with the water usage. Amazon, one of the largest producers of data centers, just published a report admitting its facilities use up to 2.5 billion gallons of water last year. However, there have been some experts that looked at this report and they said, no, no, it’s 40 times, could be as much as 40 times higher than that. Maybe up to 6.25 billion gallons when all the usage is included. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick just blamed cattle for their massive water use leading to shortages. Oh, for crying out loud. This movement, they never let an argument go. How long have they told us that it was cow flagellants that created climate change? But now the cows are now guilty of drinking too much water. Golly, we’ve had cattle herds and farms for well over the past 150 years. How did we survive that without suffering a water shortage? The only real change we have today are the data centers.

Another thing they blame, that you people living in their homes are using too much water. I looked this up the other day. There are 249 million homes across America. There’re 5,300 data centers. But suddenly with them, all these years we’ve had all those homes that didn’t have a water shortage. But with them, we do. And then, of course, they now blame golf courses for water shortages. But all those years, you know, and by the way, there are 16,000 golf courses across the country and 5,300 data centers. And we didn’t have a water shortage all that time until the last few years when these data centers got built. That’s all that’s changed. And Secretary Lutnick claims that data centers don’t use that much water. It’s just a conspiracy theory.

Well, Mr. Secretary, obviously somebody’s lying. Because reports are coming from many communities that citizens are suffering from poor water pressure as they turn on the faucet and nothing comes out. And during, you know, this is happening in their everyday lives. Those are the citizens turning up at local council meetings to protest the data centers. And I have been asking people as I speak, as they’ve been doing this, how many got your check from China? Anybody here get one yet? I didn’t either. Wouldn’t take it if they had it. But, you know, it’s just the idea. China’s paying for this opposition. Totally absurd. What about all that electricity the data centers are reported to be using? The promoters tell us that they don’t really use that much because there are, those are all, as I said earlier, those are all old figures and this new technology will cut back on electrical use. Well, here’s some reality. In the Lake Tahoe, Nevada area, nearly 50,000 people have been told that their utility may soon stop providing power to them because it’s redirecting the power to build data centers. In Indiana, an $11 billion Amazon data center will use as much power as one million residential homes. In Utah, you know this one, the proposed 40,000-acre data center will use as much electricity as the whole state now uses.

Now add those figures together to the fact that many areas have multiple data centers. In New Albany, Ohio, my home county, Licking County, Ohio, where I grew up, New Albany was a small, cute little farm community. The scenes they had to look out on were the farm lands and the forests and so forth there.

It was, now, there are 72 active data centers in that county.

Northern Virginia, where I live now, that seems to be following me. I’m sorry if I bring it here to you. In Northern Virginia, there are 570 in basically two counties. 102 of them are together in what is called Data Center Alley. It alone uses over 9,499 megawatts of power. Now do the math. How long can the power grid tolerate this massive use? And what are we hearing right now? You’ve got to prepare. The power grid could go down. It’s going to be terrorists that take down our power grid.

Goldman Sachs is projecting that data center electricity demand could go up by 165% by 2030. This is why local residents are turning into city council meetings to protest this. Oh, but data centers will bring jobs, property taxes, and prosperity to the community. Not true.

All AI data centers provide next to nothing in the way of permanent jobs. Yes, they create many in the construction, but this is what they aren’t telling you. They’re telling you, oh, we’re hiring local people to build these. No, they’re not. The corporations have partner corporations that they bring in the workers, and they move them around the country to build the data centers. So, it’s not doing anything for your local community. Once built, most data centers, no matter what their size is, provide very few jobs, usually around 25 to 50 people. And they’re probably brought in as well. In Virginia, my account, my own state, a report shows the data centers provide one permanent job for every $54 million invested. Oracle recently sent out an email to 30,000 employees telling them they no longer have jobs. The excuse is that the savings and payroll will supply the company with $8 to $10 billion to be used to build data centers. Mark Zuckerberg’s meta just took similar action eliminating about 8,000 jobs.

Concerning regular jobs outside the data industry, it’s been widely reported that AI is a killer of jobs, replacing both white-collar management positions and blue-collar assembly jobs with computers and robots. Leading economists say AI could eliminate 300 million jobs globally. Elon Musk predicts humanoid robots will hit $1 billion in 10 years. Musk also says money may no longer be so important. After all, what do you need money for? Well, to pay for your pleasures and pay for your needs and all of that. And, well, these robots are going to outdo you in production. And they’re going to create this incredible society of prosperity we’ve never known. And we’re not going to need that money anymore. You’ll have everything you need just for the asking. He actually said this, you know.

Yeah, it’s easy for the world’s richest man to say, isn’t it? Don’t need money anymore. Well, it’s just a thing there in a pile.

Musk also says there is a 20% chance that AI will eliminate humans within 10 years. But that doesn’t seem too important to him. Because he’ll have a billion robots. You know, he’ll never get lonely, I guess. So, how are you supposed to survive the destruction of the pillars of freedom? What is the plan for those who become jobless? Well, here it is in their words. Somehow, I got on an email list of, it’s called, What’s in AI? And it’s designed to counter all the arguments and the conspiracy theories and all of that kind of stuff. And this came from that report. Quote, As AI systems become more advanced, they will start to infiltrate various sectors, beginning with white collar jobs and eventually extending to blue collar industries. This shift could lead to a situation where businesses simply don’t need human employees to maintain and increase profits.

One widely discussed solution to the potential job displacement caused by AI is universal basic income. This concept involves providing all citizens with a regular, unconditional sum of money to ensure they can meet their basic needs. Regardless of their employment status, the primary means of earning a living is no longer necessary for many.  First of all, where does the money come from? If nobody’s working, nobody’s paying taxes, where does it come from? Second of all, what stinking bureaucrat in the government has the ability to tell me what my basic needs are?

Get out of my life, as I’ve been telling you for my whole life. This is a drive to slavery. You will have no control over your life. There will be no incentive to create new ideas and products. Empty shelves, empty malls, empty plates, empty pockets. You’re going to sit around all the… They talk about, like, you’re going to have all this time to have fun. How? People aren’t… Kids today in school aren’t even dating. They aren’t… You know, I was told this, as a side note, that one of the reasons… Kids don’t go to dances anymore. One of the reasons is, everybody’s got a camera. And the guys are afraid that if they walk up to a girl and ask her to dance and she turns him down, it’s going to be all over the internet. They’ll make a fool of him. And, you know, this is the kind of thing. They’re not dating. They’re not getting married. They’re not having children.

The children today are learning they’ve got no future. But what are they doing at public meetings today? I mean, when they have, like, the big graduation exercises for the colleges and stuff, they get one of these guys up there to speak about the future. The kids are booing them. And I’ve heard that young guys, especially in high school, are really starting to turn to our side on a lot of things. And they’re doing it on their own because the school system has been pushing them the other way. But this is allowed to move forward.

This will eventually lead to the destruction of America’s economy. But they insist more money will come from the data center from paying taxes. Nope. Most local communities are dropping property taxes in order to get the data center to come in. So, there’s no money from that. What about their fear from local officials that they can’t defend the community development and property because the data companies will sue them? You know, and what they say is that they can’t afford to pay, you know, the legal fees. First, lawsuits are not one-way deals. Just because someone sues does not mean they win. That’s why we have courts of law. Second, every community already has a city attorney or the attorney general at the state and federal level. They’re already on the payroll. It’s their job to defend community policy. Let the corporations file suit. If they are violating your property rights or forcing the change of your way of life or creating danger, they are in violation. You can win the lawsuit. If we win a few of them like that, the threat of lawsuits is going to go away really quick. How about this claim? We talk about, it’s my property. I should be able to do what I want to do on my property. Yeah, private property. But that’s what these corporations are claiming, that they have the right to do anything on their property. They buy up this land, put these things on, and no one has the right to tell them what to do with it. Well, this is the fallacy of that argument.

Fact is, no one has a right to do anything on their property if it causes damage to a neighbor’s property or quality of life. If you have a neighbor who has loud noises or bright lights, and by the way, the data centers, never gets dark. It’s light all night long. So, it has, you know, all these kinds of things happening. And first of all, you could go over and talk to your neighbor. I’m not talking about data center. I’m just talking about your next-door neighbor. If they’re doing something that’s damaging your property, you can walk over there and say, Charlie, can you turn that light off at night? It’s shining in my bedroom window. I can’t sleep. Charlie’s a good guy. He says, oh, I’m sorry. I didn’t know that. Done. Neighbor to neighbor. Don’t even need the law involved. That’s the way it was set up. If Charlie’s a jerk, you take him to court on a nuisance law. It’s been, nuisance laws have been there since the beginning of human society. That’s why they’re there.

Finally, let’s deal with this China issue.

We’re told we must beat China in the formation of AI technology. And so, as I said earlier, the saying goes, the nation that leads on AI controls the world. Let me ask you this question. What does beating them mean? They already have the technology and will continue to work with it no matter what we develop. They already have scientists who work on things. And, you know, what does that mean we beat them? Are we planning an international law that says, China, you can’t use AI anymore because we won?

Or are we planning to compete to create the world’s worst controlled society with China? Because they are certainly the leaders in that right now.

Here’s reality. Communism has no economy. Once they have confiscated all the money that is, you know, the poor slaves that they’ve got under control, once they’ve taken all their money and all that, then there is no new income. And as Maggie Thatcher said, eventually you run out of other people’s money.

Well, that’s why it’s always failed. Empty stores, people living in misery. The Soviet Union collapsed after President Reagan refused to back down to Soviet demands that we not build a nuclear defense shield. And Gorbachev begged him, begged him, begged him not to do that. And Ronald Reagan stood firm and said no.

It bankrupted.

You know, they were trying to keep up with us. Within a very short period of time, the Soviet Union was gone. Every single communist nation in the world has collapsed, has failed, has not worked. With one exception, China. Now, China is the worst threat to our freedom, but China has become the only communist force that prospered. You know how they did that? By gathering the goodies of our free market. They offered cheap labor to the poor slaves that they control, to our corporations to provide the products that we buy. That’s how they created an economy to keep going. That’s how the communist government got rich and powerful. We helped them do it. These communists got rich and powerful on free market money.

If you want to defeat China, the communists in China, then cut off that outlet. Stop dealing with them economically. When that money stops, they too will collapse. That’s how we beat them. Make sure that they don’t own a drop of US soil. And do not allow 500,000 Chinese students into this country. They are not coming here under free will. They’re not sitting there saying, Mom, I’m going to go study in America. I want to go over there. They don’t have that right. They don’t have that ability. It doesn’t exist in China. They are hand-picked, trained spies.

We are not going to beat them by building a competing AI system. All this information gathered by our AI system of every single thing in your life. Every single thing being put there. They have hackers. Those hackers are able to get in there and take that information and that makes them stronger. If we don’t collect all that information, if it’s not there for them, that makes them weaker. I’ll paraphrase Ronald Reagan when he helped to destroy the Soviet Union.

Mr. Trump, tear down the Chinese Communist invasion of American money. Then you will never have to worry about them again. We should listen. These powerful corporations are determined to impose this system on you. Control is their goal. They are surrounding your local government and pressuring them to keep the plan secret.

But here is the good news. As I said earlier, across the nation, local citizens are rising up like never before to demand their local government hear and respond to them. In several communities, the people have actually thrown the offending representatives out of office. It gets their attention.

Here is a tactic that you can use. Somebody told me this. They used it. They had over 100 citizens showing up city council, trying to appeal to them, to listen to them. And they had several meetings like this. And they weren’t paying any attention, just moving straight forward. So, the next meeting, they brought in, the oppositions brought in a recall petition and set up a table in the back of the city council room. And as this meeting was going on, people were going up there signing the recall petitions in front of those elected officials. There’s a way to get their attention.

You must fight. You must fight at the local level. That is vital. That is key to all of this. Ask them this question. These representatives. Who do you represent? Private corporations or the people who elected you? To get started, the first step is to do your research. Carefully follow what actions are being brought before your local city council or your county government. When you see a reference to a proposed data center, prepare immediately to jump into the fight.

Ask them. Start asking them. Have you signed a non-disclosure agreement? Put the pressure on them. They’ve got to feel that. Contact your local reps and give them the facts on these data centers. I’m giving it to you today. We have that reprint from the New American. It has all this information in it. Use that as background information to begin to ask these questions and look into that research and prepare them for what they’re looking at.. Chances are they don’t know any of this stuff. They are being pressured. People need to understand this.

All these years, Agenda 21 and all that being put in place and now with the data centers, your local representatives have been surrounded. The World Economic Forum trains these non-governmental organizations to go in. Sometimes they’ll come in with just one issue. Other times they’ll come in with a whole bunch of them. They come to your city councilman. They have it all written out. Here’s legislation. Hey, we’ve got the money for you, too, because they know exactly what grant program to get from HUD, EPA, Department of Transportation, because they help write those plans. So, they say, oh, got everything right here in a box for you. Don’t need anything else. And they just do it.

They think this is the way it’s all done now. I’ve had so many city councilmen say to me, well, that’s just the way it’s done now.

They aren’t feeling any pressure from you. That’s what’s missing. You have got to be there. And what gets me, I’ve been teaching people this for several years and I got frustrated because people didn’t get up and do things or anything. And all of a sudden, this fight on the data centers is doing everything that I’ve talked about all that time. And they’re doing it. And it’s working.

So, now, you’ve got one of the main things that you’ve got to do.

Getting it out. Now, you know, you have folks like this. You all know each other. You’re comfortable talking with each other. You share ideas. You’re all in agreement on things. And that’s fine. But out there are thousands, millions of people who do not know what you know. You’ve got to communicate with them. You can’t trust the news media.

You can’t trust other politicians. How do you do that? You set up a communication system. One of the main things that I talk about is going door to door. Put a little flyer together with details on it. Not real detail. Not, you know, a big massive thing. But a sheet that people can follow and understand. If you’ve got quotes from elected officials who have said certain things that are damaging, put it in there. Take it door to door. Or one of the things that you’ve got, you get a lot of people. Some people are really good at getting up and speaking and taking it that way. Other people are maybe just new. They want to do something. But they’ve never done anything. They don’t be intimidated. They won’t do anything if you try to get them to. They’re not afraid to take something door to door and leave it on a porch. And what will happen is your movement will start to grow as more people will get active. So that is one of the main things. Communication to get this information out.

These elected officials have got to feel the pain from you. And when you build your opposition. And the information that you send out. Make it personal. Tell the people how this is going to affect them personally. And use a motion to go after their opposition. Local and state representatives are being pounded on these, as I said.

Corporations, however, as they’re watching this happen, as these incredible victories are taking place, they are panicking over our opposition. Because they know we can win if we are armed with the truth, as we fight to protect our nation’s free market economy, our private property and our personal choice. Those are the three pillars of freedom. Take any one of them away and you lose freedom.

We freedom fighters are being labeled as anti-technology Luddites. Who are stopping progress. That’s one of the things they’re throwing at us. I’m shocked to experience criticism from long, dedicated conservative associates that I have worked with for decades on various issues. And they are accepting this corporate attack on our liberties as the new infrastructure for America. They believe in that. This is not how you make America great again.

For 35 years I have been sounding the alarm about the growing global forces determined to gain control of our lives as they eliminate our national sovereignty and our culture. Now, consider this. This is an interesting way to look at this. As they call us anti-technology Luddites. We are fighting to preserve the creation of an incredible technology that was invented by Thomas Jefferson and our founders. That was the science of human freedom based on free enterprise, limited government, private property rights, and individual life choices. It had never been tried before because they lived under the tyranny of an unelected king who dictated their every move. Now, that never-ending tyranny is fighting for a comeback.

This is your time to stand firm with our founders and your family for your future. We can win this. I’m seeing it happen. We have the facts. We have the greatest grassroots movement already winning battles. Control the building of the data centers and you will control the threat of AI. Don’t stop until you restore our precious republic of freedom. That’s the goal. Thank you.
