Global Elites Target Car Ownership While the Left Becomes the Establishment

On this Tuesday, July 11, 2023 broadcast, Kim Monson examines threats to American freedom from two angles: the World Economic Forum’s plan to eliminate private car ownership and the political left’s transformation from anti-establishment protesters to institutional power defenders. Automotive expert Lauren Fix and political commentator Brian Joondeph provide critical analysis.

World Economic Forum Sets Authoritarian Car Restrictions

Start listening at 30:01 – Hour 1

Lauren Fix, author of Car Coach Reports, reveals the World Economic Forum’s authoritarian goal to restrict private car ownership by 76% globally by 2050. Meeting recently in China where press access is forbidden, these unelected wealthy elites declared they will determine how Americans travel. Fix challenges their authority: “Where did that number come from? Where did that date come from? Where did your authority come from? It doesn’t. They’re not elected officials. They’re just people with money.”

The automotive expert explains the WEF’s strategy operates through political influence. By funding politicians’ campaigns, these wealthy individuals make elected officials beholden to their anti-freedom agenda. Fix warns about 15-minute cities, where residents must obtain government permission to travel beyond designated zones, and the coordinated effort to remove AM radio from vehicles to eliminate free speech. Through her Save the Signal initiative at savethesignal.org, Fix works to preserve AM radio access.

Fix details how car manufacturers face billions in fines if they don’t produce electric vehicles, forcing them to absorb massive losses on each EV sold. Meanwhile, consumers reject the impractical technology due to inadequate charging infrastructure, with only one charging station for every 10,000 cars on the road. Used EV prices are collapsing because buyers cannot verify remaining battery life.

“It’s easier to control the people when they don’t have any freedoms. And that’s the one thing that’s great about the United States is they haven’t been able to take away our freedoms, and we have to make sure that that doesn’t happen. Because once they’re gone, you will never get them back.”

How the Left Became ‘The Man’

Start listening at 1:12:30 – Hour 2

Brian Joondeph, contributor to American Thinker, analyzes the striking transformation of the political left from 1960s anti-establishment protesters to today’s defenders of big government institutions. In the Woodstock era, the left’s mission was standing up to the FBI, CIA, big government, and big pharma. Joondeph traces this shift to Bill Clinton’s administration, when 1960s radicals aged into positions of power.

Joondeph recalls actor Ron Silver’s reaction at Clinton’s inauguration: seeing military planes flying overhead, Silver was initially appalled until realizing “those are our planes now.” This moment encapsulated the left’s realization that they had become the establishment. Today, the left defends the FBI, CIA, and Big Pharma, the very institutions they once challenged. During COVID, Big Pharma could do no wrong, with no challenge to Dr. Fauci’s pronouncements.

The commentator highlights that RFK Jr. represents the last remnant of the old anti-establishment left, pushing back against concentrated power like someone who “popped out of a time capsule from 1965.” Joondeph also addresses the dangers of diversity hiring in critical fields like aviation and medicine, warning that lowered standards for demographic quotas could have fatal consequences.

“So the left suddenly realized that they were the ones in power. They controlled the agencies, the CIA, the FBI, the military. And all of a sudden, they were the man. And the left defends the FBI. They defend the CIA. They defend Big Pharma. These are things that the left would have pushed back against, and they don’t.”
