David Rutherford Show: Why Is Everything A Lie?

Why does it feel like something is deeply wrong in America?

On this episode of The David Rutherford Show, Rut breaks down the psychological and societal impact of deception in modern culture. From Covid policy contradictions to censorship, corruption, and elite manipulation, we explore why trust in institutions is collapsing—and what that means for the future of our nation.

Drawing from Dr. M. Scott Peck’s book People of the Lie, Rut examines the difference between mental illness and evil, the psychology of willful deception, and the small percentage of prolific liars who can destabilize entire systems.

If truth is the foundation of freedom, what happens when lies become normalized?
