With the media and big tech suppressing every single story, contradicting every single story
00:00:05.960
that might be negative about Joe Biden, President Trump has finally figured out a way to get around
00:00:13.000
them. Take a look at this clip. We had it made up and I think you're like, first time I've ever
00:00:18.180
done this, right? First time. Go ahead, wherever it is, put it up. Would there be any place for
00:00:23.300
fossil fuels, including coal and fracking in a Biden administration? No, we would work it out.
00:00:31.080
We would make sure it's eliminated and no more subsidies for either one of those. I guarantee
00:00:35.800
we're going to end fossil fuel. No more, no new fracking. I'd gradually move away from fracking.
00:00:41.700
And I think it's critically important on day one that we end any fossil fuel leases on public lands.
00:00:47.340
Well, what about, say, stopping fracking and stopping new pipeline infrastructure?
00:00:53.260
They want to do the same thing I want to do. They want to phase out fossil fuels and we're
00:00:57.300
going to phase out fossil fuels. There's no question I'm in favor of banning fracking.
00:01:09.840
And what we don't show is his more current version. Oh, yes, we'll have fracking.
00:01:15.120
And the fake news, they don't do anything about it. They don't even talk to him about it.
00:01:20.780
But right now, he's got bigger problems than fracking, I think.
00:01:25.280
Right now, he does have bigger problems. And that would be his son, Hunter Biden's laptop.
00:01:30.440
But you see that he uses tech to get around the media, which won't cover the story.
00:01:36.540
So and then it's being suppressed on big tech. So he plays the clip and then both of them have to
00:01:40.960
cover it. I believe that is inception. But President Trump has more tricks up his sleeve,
00:01:47.200
not just on the Hunter Biden stuff, which he alluded to, but also possibly breaking up
00:01:51.980
the biggest tech giant in the world. I'm Michael Knowles. This is The Michael Knowles Show.
00:01:56.280
Welcome back to the show. My favorite comment from yesterday is from Zane, who says every time Joe
00:02:09.480
Biden says, come on, man, he assumes someone's gender. That's true. Of all the issues that people
00:02:15.460
are bringing up to Joe, nobody mentions that about how he keeps assuming people's gender. He assumed
00:02:21.380
corn pops gender. He assumes a lot of people's gender. You know what you can't assume, though,
00:02:28.240
that you can keep charging things to your credit cards forever and ever and ever, and that'll be
00:02:31.440
fine. What you need to do is consolidate all of that. Lightstream offers credit card consolidation
00:02:36.540
loans from 5.95% APR with auto pay and excellent credit. The application is 100% online. You don't even
00:02:44.060
have to leave your house to apply. And these days, I think you're not allowed to leave your house. So that
00:02:47.800
works out very well. You can get a loan from $5,000 to $100,000, and there are absolutely no
00:02:54.080
fees. You can even get your funds as soon as the day you apply. People love Lightstream. Okay, here's
00:03:00.120
just what one customer had to say. He said, I heard about Lightstream while listening to one of my
00:03:04.000
favorite podcasts. I hope it was this one. And it prompted me to do more research after shopping
00:03:08.160
around for a personal loan that would help me get a lower interest rate. There was no one easier to
00:03:12.400
work with. Plus, Lightstream had the best rate by far. Better yet, no fees, and I had my cash within
00:03:18.040
two business days. Overall, amazing experience. Highly recommended. Right now, this is a great
00:03:23.580
opportunity to solve your credit card debt problem, consolidate that, stop paying crazy, crazy rates
00:03:29.180
and fees. My listeners right now can save even more with an additional interest rate discount. The only
00:03:34.580
way to get this discount is to go to Lightstream.com slash Knowles, K-N-W-L-E-S. That is L-I-G-H-T-S-T-R-E-A-M.com
00:03:41.900
slash Knowles. Subject to credit approval rate includes 0.50% auto pay discount. Lowest rate
00:03:47.060
requires excellent credit. Terms and conditions apply and offers are subject to change without
00:03:50.500
notice. Visit Lightstream.com slash Knowles for more information. President Trump had some choice
00:03:58.060
words there for the media because the media won't cover any of these stories. In this case,
00:04:02.680
Joe Biden saying for months and months and months, he's going to ban fracking, ban fossil fuels.
00:04:06.620
Then finally, he changes his tune because he wants to get votes in Pennsylvania, which may well
00:04:10.460
decide the election. So they won't cover it. So what does he do? He knows that the media have to
00:04:14.520
cover his rallies because they're so wacky. They're so off the cuff that some news might break. And so
00:04:19.460
at the rally, he uses multimedia to play the clips, which then the media have to cover and not even big
00:04:25.480
tech are going to break up. At some of these events, however, President Trump has used even
00:04:33.900
Your state is doing great with a pandemic. Pandemic. They're getting tired of the pandemic, aren't
00:04:42.720
they? Getting tired of the pandemic. You turn on CNN. That's all they cover. COVID, COVID, pandemic,
00:04:49.300
COVID, COVID, COVID. You know why? They're trying to talk everybody out of voting. People aren't buying
00:04:54.780
at CNN, you dumb bastards. That's all they talk about. You know that I, of all the things
00:05:06.020
President Trump does, I probably like 99% of them. The one thing that drives me crazy is when he goes
00:05:11.520
blue. I just don't like it. I don't love the vulgar language. However, I'm going to take my personal
00:05:16.660
thoughts about this away for a second and just look at it more as an objective outside observer.
00:05:22.120
However, there's a reason those people are cheering. When President Trump calls the media
00:05:28.200
stupid bastards, there's a reason that they cheer. And it's not just that they're a group of hateful,
00:05:33.980
awful, terrible people. I bet you every single Trump voter in the country, 63 million people,
00:05:38.240
would cheer at that. And frankly, I bet you another 30 million would cheer at that too,
00:05:43.020
who didn't even vote for Trump. Because the mainstream media have lost all of their credibility.
00:05:47.280
And it's not just that they're hacks for Democrats. For the past six, seven months,
00:05:52.640
they have been actively trying to gin up fear, gin up mayhem, lock people in their homes,
00:05:59.860
all to win a presidential election. That is what the lockdown is about. The lockdown is about winning
00:06:05.020
a presidential election. Trump's analysis there that they want to keep you all terrified of going
00:06:09.540
out and voting is precisely so that they can have widespread unsolicited mail-in voting,
00:06:14.160
which we have never had in the history of our country, and which we have already seen examples
00:06:18.960
of vulnerability to fraud. Now, people are going to tell you there's no evidence that there has
00:06:24.620
been fraud in the past. There's no evidence in the past because we've never had this in the past.
00:06:28.500
This is completely brand new, and it's been brought on because of these crazy lockdowns,
00:06:33.700
where the media insists on the lockdowns or else we're all going to die. Insists on the lockdowns
00:06:39.020
when it comes to church, insists on the lockdowns when it comes to protests,
00:06:42.540
insists on the lockdowns when it comes to voting in person, but does not want the lockdowns when
00:06:47.600
it comes to mostly peaceful BLM protests, mostly peaceful BLM riots, mostly peaceful BLM arson.
00:06:56.140
Okay, I get it. President Trump, it's easy to blame him for whipping up this frenzy against the
00:07:03.000
media. Uh-uh, buddy. Trump is the consequence. Trump is the symptom of a fury against the media,
00:07:09.660
which the media have earned through their thorough corruption. And you don't know the half of their
00:07:14.640
corruption. It gets so much worse today because we now have confirmation from the Department of
00:07:22.660
Justice and the FBI that the Hunter Biden laptop and the Hunter Biden emails and the emails showing
00:07:30.240
that he was selling his dad's influence for millions of dollars to Ukraine and to China,
00:07:33.900
and the emails suggestion that Joe Biden was well, not only aware of this, but he was involved in
00:07:40.100
this and more evidence that Joe Biden was getting a cut of this, of all this corruption, selling out
00:07:46.640
America. The DOJ and the FBI confirmed this was not Russian disinformation. This is what we've been
00:07:54.160
told now for the past two weeks, more than two weeks. It's disinfo. It's Russian interference. No one
00:08:00.500
should ever run this. We've got to suppress the story. Twitter's not going to let people share the
00:08:04.460
link. New York Post still locked out of Twitter. A senior law enforcement official is now saying
00:08:10.160
FBI and DOJ concur with John Ratcliffe, who's the director of national intelligence. Hunter Biden's
00:08:14.640
laptop and the emails in question weren't part of a Russian disinformation campaign. And the FBI now does
00:08:20.080
have possession of Hunter Biden's laptop. First of all, the emails are obviously real. How do I know
00:08:27.360
they're real? Because not only do they sound real, not only do they refer to real events,
00:08:33.880
they include photographs of Hunter Biden in very compromising positions. So either the Photoshop
00:08:39.080
people at the Russian disinformation camp are the most qualified and skilled in the world,
00:08:45.680
or these are photos and this is real material that comes from Hunter Biden. Now that hasn't stopped the
00:08:52.580
mainstream media from pushing this disinformation narrative. Just, just take a listen to the sort
00:08:57.420
of people who have pushed the lie with, with no evidence, by the way, that all this damaging info
00:09:04.880
about the Bidens, Joe and Hunter is Russian disinfo. Rachel Maddow, MSNBC, Nick Schifrin, PBS,
00:09:11.660
Yamiche Alcindor, PBS, Steve Holzer, CBS news director. CBS news director, who by the way,
00:09:16.120
reprimanded in public one of his reporters because his reporter dared ask Joe Biden about these issues
00:09:23.560
of Hunter's emails and Joe's inappropriate relationship to Ukraine and China. The reporter
00:09:28.100
just asked the question, did what reporters do? CBS news director comes out there and says,
00:09:31.900
how dare you? You shouldn't do that. Steve Holzer. Politicians who have pushed this, Adam Schiff,
00:09:36.840
of course, he probably cooked the whole thing up himself. Chris Murphy, Democratic Senator,
00:09:40.900
rep Bill Pascrell, rep David Cicilline, all Democrats. The blue check marks on Twitter who
00:09:47.440
have pushed this complete lie. 100%. We now have confirmation from three intelligence agencies lie.
00:09:55.000
Amy Siskind, who's a blue check on Twitter, Neera Tanden from the Center for American Progress,
00:10:00.220
Ben Rhodes, who was Barack Obama's fabulist. He was, he was one of these, these complete blockheads
00:10:07.340
behind the Iran deal and, and a lot of Barack Obama's foreign policy. All of the Pod Save America
00:10:14.300
guys, they just completely lied about this. Evan McMullen, Egg McMuffin, that, that jerk,
00:10:19.500
that, that never Trumper who ran for president in 2016. He was an ex-CIA guy who was very upset that
00:10:26.560
Trump was running against his, his intelligence community that has obviously taken way, way,
00:10:33.800
way too much power. Bill Kristol. Remember Bill Kristol? David Frum, another former Republican,
00:10:39.880
I guess. All these guys pushed this Russian disinfo hoax without a single shred of evidence.
00:10:46.180
How about from big publications? Washington Post, Business Insider, Newsweek, USA Today, CNN,
00:10:51.900
and many, many others. I just don't have time to go through all of them.
00:10:54.760
This, this is what Trump is up against. We've now, we've heard from major media figures. We've heard
00:11:03.700
from major politicians. We've heard from major cultural figures, major Republican figures,
00:11:08.960
even though they're fake Republicans, but they pretend to be Republicans on TV and the biggest
00:11:12.540
news outlets in the world, all arrayed against president Trump pushing a complete fabrication.
00:11:18.520
And you think, you think when, when conservatives say that Republicans don't have institutional power,
00:11:25.720
conservatives don't have institutional power, you say, well, you got the White House, you got the
00:11:28.580
Senate. We don't have nothing, pal. Okay. We've got some positions in the government. Thankfully,
00:11:32.680
we have the White House and we're holding the Senate, but compared to that liberal establishment
00:11:38.520
that I've just described, it's not very much. It's not very much. And it is astounding to me when I
00:11:44.900
talk to my democratic friends and relatives and they just spout these hack talking points that come
00:11:50.740
from all of these various people without evidence, I think, oh, you just, the big divide here is not
00:11:58.340
whether you are this kind of a conservative or that kind of a conservative or a liberal Democrat or
00:12:03.560
a new left or that. A big divide is, do you believe the New York times or not? Do you believe what the
00:12:10.200
establishment are telling you or not? Do you still have faith in this establishment?
00:12:15.680
Or do you not? And so it doesn't cut evenly across left and right, but there are, there are some
00:12:22.100
people who still believe in it and that's why they always get misled. But all those guys were lying
00:12:27.280
or at least were misled by people who were lying. The computer is legitimate. The emails are legitimate.
00:12:34.060
And even though Joe Biden told us that he has nothing to do with Joe Biden, with Hunter Biden's
00:12:38.420
business deals, we now have a photo from that laptop showing Biden smiling with one of Hunter
00:12:44.360
Biden's corrupt Kazakh business partners. You know, this scandal that Hunter Biden is now involved
00:12:53.240
in. If I had to draw just one practical conclusion from that, it would be you need to protect yourself
00:13:00.220
online. Okay. This is my greatest segue ever in the history of my show. October is national cyber
00:13:06.580
security awareness month. And every day we put our information at risk on the internet. You could
00:13:12.540
miss certain identity threats by just monitoring your credit. LifeLock detects a wide range of identity
00:13:18.280
threats. Like for instance, your social security number for sale on the dark web. If you become a victim
00:13:24.380
of identity theft, LifeLock can help you restore your identity easier than what you can do on your
00:13:30.360
own. It's not very smart to use the same password for everything. That's one example. Not very smart
00:13:35.980
to go online, not protect your data. Not very smart to leave your computer at repair shops for weeks at
00:13:41.360
a time. Not very smart to do these things. Okay. You've got to protect yourself online. No one can
00:13:46.740
prevent all identity theft or monitor all transactions at all businesses. LifeLock can see threats that you
00:13:51.980
might miss on your own. Join now and save up to 25% off your first year. Go to LifeLock.com slash
00:13:57.780
Knowles, K-N-O-W-L-E-S. That is a LifeLock.com slash Knowles, K-N-O-W-L-E-S for 25% off the guys that I
00:14:06.180
trust. Head on over there now. So it's legit. Forget about all those photos with, with Hunter Biden with
00:14:13.020
a cigarette dangling from his teeth or I don't know, a pipe of some sort hanging from his teeth.
00:14:17.100
Those aren't the most interesting ones. The other day when, when people were pushing those photos
00:14:23.140
out, I, I said that I don't think that's the right tack to take. I don't think it's good to make fun
00:14:29.540
of him for being a drug addict or anything like that. Didn't occur to me though. And it should
00:14:34.120
have, it occurred to me shortly thereafter, but it should have occurred to me in the moment. Then
00:14:37.500
the reason that those photos of Hunter Biden with the cigarettes and the crack pipes and all that came
00:14:41.980
out were, was not to make fun of Hunter Biden for being a junkie. The reason those photos came out
00:14:48.480
was to show that this is obviously legitimate material because it, an oil painter didn't come
00:14:53.840
up with those pictures. Those were real photos from the laptop. And those photos aren't the
00:14:57.400
interesting ones. The photos that are interesting for our purposes are the ones showing Joe Biden
00:15:02.240
smiling with Hunter's corrupt Kazakh business partners. And lest you think, by the way,
00:15:07.980
lest you think that this is just some accident. Oh, poor old Joe, his son just suckered him into
00:15:13.540
taking a picture with these Kazakh guys. Joe Biden is a very shrewd politician. He's not a very
00:15:20.300
intelligent man. He's not a very honest man. He's not a very accomplished man in terms of what he's
00:15:25.040
actually accomplished while in office. He's had the accomplishment of being in office for a long
00:15:28.260
time, but he is a shrewd politician. That's how he stayed in office so long. He knew that his presence
00:15:35.160
in those photos would be of value to those Kazakh guys. He was offering that value.
00:15:41.680
Okay. Joe, you don't pull the wool over Joe Biden's eyes when it comes to pure politics. Okay. You
00:15:48.160
might on a host of other issues, but the guy's a slick politician and nobody should pity him
00:15:52.140
in the realm of politics. So this photo was first published last year at an anti-corruption website
00:15:57.520
called the Kazakhstani Initiative on Asset Recovery. This didn't get a lot of play when it was
00:16:02.660
published there, but now we've got the photo too. Reports to show Hunter Biden and Joe Biden together
00:16:07.720
with Kazakhstan's former prime minister, Karim Masimov at the far right and at the far left,
00:16:13.140
Kanez Rakishev, who is a junior partner of Timur Kulebayev. Stay with me. And Rakishev is a prominent
00:16:21.480
investor and entrepreneur regarded as one of the most influential businessmen in Kazakhstan. Rakishev is
00:16:27.720
among the 50 most influential people in Kazakhstan. Obviously connections to all these oligarchs.
00:16:32.840
Hunter Biden doing business with them. Why? Is he some expert on Kazakhstan business affairs? No,
00:16:40.760
I don't think so. He was peddling his father's influence. And as the photo shows, Joe Biden was
00:16:47.660
helping him out to do it. Raises a lot of questions. One of the messages from Hunter Biden's computer
00:16:52.920
says that he kicks back half of his salary to pops. Whose pops? Is it corn pop? Or is it Papa Biden?
00:17:00.220
What did he mean by that? I don't know. I guess we're, I guess we're gonna have to find out. By the
00:17:03.620
way, by the way, you know, the Post broke this story, the New York Post, the oldest continually
00:17:08.220
published daily newspaper in the country, founded by Alexander Hamilton. The Post is still not allowed
00:17:17.840
back on Twitter. They've now, Jack Dorsey came out. He realized that the federal government is about to
00:17:23.060
smack him really hard. So he allowed people to start posting the link a little bit more.
00:17:27.540
But the Post is still not on Twitter. The in-kind contribution that Twitter is making to the Biden
00:17:35.240
campaign by continuing to suppress this information, by suppressing the outlet that is breaking this
00:17:41.940
information, is impossible to calculate. What is it worth? Millions? Certainly it's worth millions.
00:17:50.760
Might be worth 10 million or 20 million. It's worth a lot of money, which sounds like an FEC violation
00:17:57.540
to me. Sounds like, sounds like the Federal Election Commission should look into Twitter's practices
00:18:01.780
because there are many ways in which big tech is breaking the law. We'll get to that in a second with
00:18:06.880
Google. But, but Twitter is breaking the law, not just in a matter of antitrust. I don't think
00:18:11.840
they're going to go after Twitter for antitrust, not breaking the law. And maybe, maybe they're
00:18:15.540
breaking the law when it comes to section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, but they are
00:18:19.560
certainly violating campaign finance law right now. And it would be, it would be a shame if the
00:18:24.260
federal government let that go without addressing it. However, the DOJ has a bigger fish to fry right
00:18:31.560
now when it comes to big tech, because the DOJ, this is probably the biggest news story when it comes
00:18:36.280
to business or technology, maybe of my lifetime, certainly in the last 20 years, the DOJ is now
00:18:43.840
moving to break up Google as a monopoly. They are suing Google. They've filed a 57 page complaint
00:18:51.120
that has been filed in the U.S. District Court in DC, accusing Google of locking out competition.
00:18:59.060
And the way that they're, they're going after this suit is pretty interesting because it's not the way
00:19:04.560
a lot of people expected them to go after the suit. It's, it's in a more specific way that actually
00:19:10.540
will have broader implications. And, you know, one of the issues, we'll get to specifically what that
00:19:17.860
is in a second. One of the issues with big tech is that they can see you everywhere. They can keep an
00:19:24.380
eye on you everywhere. And that's a very bad thing when you are being spied on, but it's a very good
00:19:30.140
thing when you can keep an eye on your home, your family, your pets, your belongings, and get some
00:19:34.260
peace of mind. You can do that with Ring. There's a reason, there are a thousand reasons why
00:19:39.260
protecting your home should matter to you. Ring has security products for every corner of your home,
00:19:44.360
inside and out. Best of all, you can see it all in one simple app. With Ring, you can keep an eye on
00:19:49.420

00:20:47.320
The way that the DOJ is looking to break up Google is interesting. We sort of expected them to go after,
00:20:55.020
I don't know, YouTube. Let's say YouTube, right? YouTube really is the video player for the whole
00:20:59.600
internet and they suppress information and they turn out voices that they don't like and there's
00:21:06.160
no way to compete against them. And everyone says, well, what about, I don't know, Vimeo? What about
00:21:11.680
whatever? Right. Yeah. Even Vimeo, which has been around forever, no competition whatsoever against
00:21:17.020
YouTube. You can't just go out and make your own YouTube, right? But that's not how they're going
00:21:21.300
after them. They're going after search. Google has a zillion products, right? They have Gmail,
00:21:29.940
they have Google Voice, they've got YouTube, they've got Google Glasses, they've got all sorts
00:21:37.560
of stuff, right? Search is their core competency. Search is where all of Google's power comes from.
00:21:43.780
And what the DOJ is saying is that their search is effectively a monopoly. And you know this,
00:21:49.640
we see this with conservative issues all the time. Google suppresses conservative results.
00:21:56.080
They boost up left-wing results. And by doing that, they manipulate the flow of information.
00:22:01.940
They control something like 80% of the information flow around the internet.
00:22:06.100
And so, and by the way, if you are on the first page of Google, you're there, you exist,
00:22:10.400
you're on the internet. If you're on page two, you might as well not exist. It's that stark.
00:22:15.120
And they are controlling that in a way that is, according to the DOJ, monopolistic.
00:22:22.060
Okay, these are the stakes that we've got right now. You've got three companies, but really it's
00:22:27.240
Google. Google's the big dog. Facebook and Twitter, much less so. You've got these companies controlling
00:22:32.440
the flow of information around the internet, controlling our public square. The public square
00:22:36.240
is essential in a free government, in self-government, where we have to persuade our fellow citizens.
00:22:40.600
They are controlling our speech and they have no accountability whatsoever. They acquired that
00:22:45.940
ability through fraud by telling people that they were entering into some one product and then giving
00:22:53.260
them a different product, telling people that they were entering into being able to share their
00:22:56.560
information around and then pull the wool, pull the rug out from under them, start suppressing political
00:23:02.200
views that they don't like. Through the fraud of enjoying protection from section 230 and saying,
00:23:08.540
we're going to be a neutral tech platform and then actually, sorry, we're going to act as a publisher,
00:23:12.740
but we're still going to get that subsidy because of the liability protection. They've done all of
00:23:17.760
that. And even beyond all those legal issues, you just zoom in from a political issue. We can't abide
00:23:23.460
that. We can't abide very, very bad people with very, very anti-American views controlling the American
00:23:32.540
public sphere. There's no argument. There's no conservative argument for that. There's no libertarian
00:23:37.360
argument for that. There's no liberal argument. You cannot have that in free government. And those
00:23:44.680
are the stakes. These issues, you know, people talk about Trump's Twitter or whatever. We should
00:23:50.800
be talking about Twitter, Twitter, not Trump's Twitter. Twitter is the issue. I don't, who cares
00:23:54.600
what Trump is tweeting? These are the stakes. There is no excuse for any non-leftist not to vote for
00:24:03.100
Donald Trump in this election. I don't care. You don't like the way he talks. I don't care. You,
00:24:07.040
you, you don't like that. He uses vulgar language about the press. I don't, I actually don't like
00:24:10.360
that either, but get your priorities in order, man. This is, these are the stakes. This is by far the
00:24:18.840
most conservative president of my lifetime, but he's kind of the lone voice against this entire
00:24:24.400
establishment that threatens to snuff out self-government itself. I don't think that's an
00:24:29.620
overstatement. DOJ doesn't think that's an overstatement. There is no issue that could
00:24:38.540
possibly justify a non-leftist voting for Joe Biden or Egg McMuffin or whatever the libertarian
00:24:45.520
candidate is or whatever. You, I understand that it doesn't feel morally pure all the time to go in
00:24:51.980
and actually vote and actually do anything. It requires courage and it requires you to be able to
00:24:56.940
take a risk. We have to do that. Some people are not willing to do that. Former chairman of the
00:25:01.860
Republican national committee, Michael Steele, an absolute joke. Michael Steele came out and endorsed
00:25:09.360
Joe Biden. Imagine that night, tensions high, a nation torn apart, a plot here in Baltimore city to
00:25:17.900
assassinate a newly elected president on his way to inauguration and to plunge the country into chaos.
00:25:24.160
Abraham Lincoln disembarked at this train station and under pre-dawn skies made his way unscathed and
00:25:30.480
on the greatness. In the days ahead, we may face a crisis of similar proportion, an outlaw president
00:25:36.580
clinging to power and defying the will of the people. For four years, many have said there will
00:25:41.800
come a moment. Well, this is the moment because this ballot is like none ever cast. Now I'm a lifelong
00:25:49.000
Republican and I'm still a Republican, but this ballot is how we restore the soul of our nation,
00:25:54.420
electing a good man, Joe Biden, and a trailblazer, Kamala Harris, and ensure an orderly transfer of
00:26:00.020
power or plunge our country into chaos. America or Trump? I choose America.
00:26:08.540
The Lincoln Project is responsible for the content of this advertising.
00:26:11.980
Joe Biden is not a good man and Kamala Harris is not a trailblazer. How is Joe Biden a good man?
00:26:16.540
Well, Trump lies. Joe Biden has told many, many more lies than Donald Trump. And much more
00:26:22.500
importantly than that, Joe Biden has told much more consequential lies than Donald Trump. Donald
00:26:28.420
Trump lies, meaning exaggerates, about his crowd sizes. And maybe he gets a few statistics or facts
00:26:35.460
wrong every now and again, which by the way, isn't a lie if you do it unintentionally.
00:26:39.540
Joe Biden had to drop out of the 1988 presidential race because he lied very intentionally. Joe Biden has
00:26:45.360
lied about his views on fracking for it. Just to use the one example at the top of the show,
00:26:49.840
Joe Biden lied about the, the, a man involved in a horrible family tragedy with Joe Biden,
00:26:55.800
where his, where his wife was killed in a car accident. The man who was involved in that car
00:27:00.680
accident felt terrible for his whole life, but you know, they've sort of made, made peace. And then
00:27:05.820
the minute that guy died, Joe Biden lied about him and said he was a drunk driver. Horribly damaging to
00:27:12.700
this guy's family. Joe Biden has lied about his views on just, just about every single issue.
00:27:18.440
Joe Biden lies about stories in the past all the time. What do you mean a good man? And now it looks
00:27:24.140
like he might be a crook. That's what the evidence seems to suggest. He's, and how is Kamala Harris a
00:27:29.820
trailblazer? Really, I suspect what Michael Steele is alluding to is the way that everyone uses this
00:27:35.180
phrase trailblazer now, which is to refer to people's skin color or sex, but she's not a trailblazer on race.
00:27:40.680
We've already had a black president. She's not a trailblazer on sex because we've already had a
00:27:44.160
female vice presidential candidate, Sarah Palin and Geraldine Ferraro for that matter.
00:27:48.520
So she's not a trailblazer in any way. She's a hack politician who like Joe Biden doesn't have
00:27:52.340
any principles and goes whichever way the wind blows. You're going to pick that over Trump. Why?
00:27:56.760
Because my country, Matt, the soul of our country, what soul of our country, Joe Biden is suing nuns.
00:28:01.300
Joe Biden is calling for abortion up until the moment of birth at taxpayer expense.
00:28:06.580
Soul of our country. That's disgusting. That's despicable.
00:28:10.380
Soul of our country. But, but Michael Steele is just using words. He doesn't mean any of these
00:28:16.940
things. Michael Steele was always a squish. Don't forget that. Michael Steele was always a squish.
00:28:22.480
Back in, in 2009, Michael Steele threw Rush Limbaugh under the bus, a much more important and
00:28:30.480
significant conservative than Michael Steele, because it actually revealed the role of the
00:28:37.200
Michael Steele's of the world and the other squishy Republicans in the kind of framework of
00:28:41.920
liberalism. In, in 2009, Barack Obama is inaugurated and, uh, Rush Limbaugh has asked,
00:28:49.200
can you give us four paragraphs? I think it was in the Washington Post. Can you give us four paragraphs
00:28:52.660
on what you hope to see from this president? And he said, I don't need four paragraphs.
00:28:55.740
I need four words. I hope he fails. Makes perfect sense. Barack Obama said he wanted to fundamentally
00:29:02.300
transform America. I hope he fails. Barack Obama wanted to socialize our healthcare. I hope he
00:29:06.440
fails. Of course, makes perfect sense. And he was castigated for this, including by Michael Steele,
00:29:10.500
who said that Rush's commentary was ugly. Well, and not, not even just in that specific case,
00:29:14.920
but generally was ugly. You know, Michael Steele, he did preside, or he was chairman of the RNC during
00:29:20.520
the 2010 midterms, which were very good for the GOP because of the tea party. The tea party was
00:29:25.840
what led that election. But I don't think that was Michael Steele's leadership. I think that was
00:29:29.620
Obamacare. I think it was, I don't think anybody said I'm going out to vote because Michael Steele
00:29:33.240
did a good job. No, they said, I'm going out to vote because of Obamacare. So does he get a little
00:29:37.100
credit for that? Maybe, but you know, you're talking about a once in a hundred years issue,
00:29:41.980
certainly once in a generation issue. The reason that Michael Steele didn't like Rush Limbaugh,
00:29:46.060
the reason that Michael Steele's endorsing Joe Biden, the reason that Michael Steele
00:29:48.880
essentially said that he hoped Barack Obama would succeed by disagreeing with Rush, who said,
00:29:55.640
I hope he fails, is that Michael Steele's job, the role of squishy Republicans in the liberal
00:30:02.440
framework is to be losers. That's their job. And the liberals actually need them.
00:30:08.000
If the liberals didn't have Republicans rolling over and pretending to put up a fight, but then
00:30:12.540
rolling over, they would have a crisis of legitimacy. The regime wouldn't seem legitimate because
00:30:18.780
there would be an opposition that was underground. But as long as you have a fake opposition that is
00:30:23.260
a little above ground and they, you know, they take a couple swings, they go into the ring and
00:30:26.740
they maybe throw a punch or two, but then they get clocked in the head and they take a fall like
00:30:30.560
they're supposed to. Unless you have that, the regime is not legitimate. You see plenty of loser
00:30:37.960
Republicans like this. Mitt Romney is kind of the classic example of this. He goes out, he puts up a
00:30:42.700
little bit of a fight and then ultimately he wants liberalism to succeed and to advance.
00:30:48.400
John McCain, same thing in his political career. He wanted liberalism to advance and he'd put up a
00:30:54.380
little fight as a Republican, but does anybody really think if John McCain were still alive today,
00:30:59.380
they would be endorsing Trump in this election? Something tells me, I don't think so.
00:31:02.900
There have been a lot of Republicans like that for way, way, way too long. Okay. Squishes and
00:31:13.180
outright political subversives have dominated the Republican party for too long. And then you got
00:31:19.020
Trump and Trump's got some problems, I guess, but you know what? I don't care. I don't care because
00:31:24.480
he's actually putting up the fight. And I think that's why they're pushing back on him so hard. I think
00:31:30.100
that's why right now you're seeing such kind of chaos in the country, social chaos that the left
00:31:35.200
is instigating. And by the way, when there is social chaos, it's a good time to have gold. Here's
00:31:39.600
something new. I really, I really like these guys. This is a pretty incredible product. You know how the
00:31:44.800
price of gold has been skyrocketing? Well, now there is a way to buy gold through a company called
00:31:49.780
Acre. You might say, Michael, I don't have any money to buy gold. Well, I think you do. Acre lets you
00:31:55.300
subscribe to gold bars for as little as $30 a month. You pay each month. Once your gold stash
00:32:02.160
reaches the price of their gold bars, they discreetly ship Acre gold to your house. This
00:32:07.540
is physical gold, which is very important to have, especially when times are turbulent. Acre lets
00:32:11.980
you invest in physical gold without it coming out of pocket all at once. Very helpful for those of us
00:32:17.160
who can't just be dropping money on gold bars every single day. Acre keeps you updated on your gold
00:32:21.580
stash every month. Ships once you reach the price threshold with Acre taking physical delivery of
00:32:26.520
your gold means it is safe and sound and in your hands. Actually, for a number of years now, I have
00:32:32.880
enjoyed investing in precious metals, in physical precious metals. It's just something very conservative
00:32:39.000
about that, you know, because you got it. You can actually have it in your hand. Visit getacregold.com

00:34:02.200
So Michael Steele, former RNC chairman, is a loser. I'm not saying that as a petty insult. I'm
00:34:07.040
saying that is what he is actively doing. He is saying, I, the former RNC chairman, I'm going to
00:34:12.280
endorse Joe Biden, the Democrat, because I want our party to lose. But not everybody is a loser like
00:34:18.600
that. Some people want to be winners. My favorite recent endorsement for President Trump comes from
00:34:24.100
none other than Fiddy. Fiddy Cent. Fiddy Cent. I mentioned this very briefly at the end of the show
00:34:30.900
yesterday, but I really want to just get into the full endorsement here. He tweets out, all caps,
00:34:36.680
what the F, F star, star, star, star, vote for Trump. I'm out. F New York. The Knicks never win
00:34:46.680
anyway. I don't care. Trump doesn't like black people. 62%. Are you out of your effing mind?
00:34:54.440
It's the 62% he is alluding to here is the Joe Biden tax proposal, which would tax the rapper
00:35:02.220
at 62%. Wow. That is a lot of money, isn't it? And, uh, you know, the, the reason it would tax people
00:35:11.540
that high is because you have state taxes as well and local taxes as well. And so blue States, which
00:35:18.280
levy very high state and local taxes, all of a sudden you add that to the federal tax, which Biden is going
00:35:24.300
to increase and you, you end up working 62% of the year for the government. What does freedom mean?
00:35:33.620
If 62% of your year, you are a surf to the government. I am not of the opinion that taxes
00:35:42.940
are illegitimate by definition. I'm not of the opinion that all taxation is theft. I mean, it's
00:35:47.920
kind of a, it's a funny line that conservatives and really more libertarians say sometimes,
00:35:51.940
but I'm not of that opinion. However, when you get to 62%, now you're in a really dangerous
00:35:57.600
territory and Fiddy, Fiddy sent realizes that. And so he's coming out and saying, I don't, I don't
00:36:01.840
care if Trump doesn't like black people. I think Fiddy is joking here, by the way, because does anyone
00:36:07.420
in their right mind believe Donald Trump doesn't like black people? Donald Trump was winning awards
00:36:11.880
with Rosa Parks decades ago. The only time anyone ever accused Trump of racism is when he ran for
00:36:17.380
office as a Republican, if he had run as a Democrat, which he could have, no one would accuse him of
00:36:22.600
that sort of thing. Contrary to the popular media representation, Trump has denounced white supremacy
00:36:28.320
about 700 zillion times in his career. So I don't, but I think he's, I think he's joking. I think what
00:36:34.060
Fiddy is doing here is joking about, because if, if he really felt that Trump were, you know, a white
00:36:39.600
supremacist or something, something tells me even the 62% he wouldn't vote for him. What he's saying is,
00:36:44.120
yeah, okay, we hear all this blah, blah, blah about Trump hates black people. Yeah, I don't care,
00:36:48.580
man. What does that, what does that mean in real life? If Trump seriously hated black people,
00:36:54.000
how has that manifested? Has it manifested by him creating policies that have given great
00:37:00.520
opportunity to black people? Has his white supremacy manifested by Trump affecting the lowest black
00:37:07.240
unemployment rate in the history of the country? Has that manifested by President Trump making an
00:37:12.260
explicit request for the black vote because he said that Democrats have been screwing over black
00:37:18.720
people for hundreds of years? And what have you got to lose? Is it, is it because Trump has black
00:37:25.620
friends? You know, I know that left for some reason, they always say, oh, how dare you mention
00:37:30.700
that you have black friends? That's not proof that you're not racist. I think it is pretty sure it is.
00:37:36.400
They, they actually, the left always wants to cut that off and kind of mock the idea that because
00:37:41.320
you have black friends, you're not a racist, uh, as, as being somehow illegitimate. But I think they
00:37:47.380
want to cut that off because it is simply the case that if you have black friends, you're not a racist.
00:37:52.300
It's just the way it is. You don't, if you really judge people, uh, you know, as inferior and superior on
00:38:00.160
the, on the basis of race, then you're, you're not going to associate on an equal playing field with
00:38:05.540
people that you think are by definition inferior. Trump has a lot of black friends. So Kanye West
00:38:12.880
would be an example of this. Another rapper who's gone for Trump. There seems to be an interesting, uh,
00:38:17.480
grouping of rappers here who are going for Donald Trump, which should be no surprise to anyone who's
00:38:21.180
been paying attention because Donald Trump has appeared in many, many, many rap songs over the years
00:38:26.360
as someone to emulate. Just that idea of Donald Trump breaking the stodgy old Republican mold,
00:38:31.560
the loser Republican mold. Another reason that he's been able to transform the party and,
00:38:37.780
and threaten the liberal regime because he's not willing to just play the court jester in the
00:38:41.660
kingdom of liberalism. Not all celebrities though are like Fitti, not all celebrities like President
00:38:46.580
Trump. John Leguizamo, who's actually quite a good actor, uh, but a very annoying political
00:38:52.600
commentator. John Leguizamo went on the Bill Maher show and he said that it, it is
00:38:56.020
absolutely unacceptable for Hispanics to vote for Trump. There was an article I saw in the paper
00:39:01.820
this week that talked about how, uh, and I thought this was sort of trading on stereotypes.
00:39:05.660
It said that the Trump is doing rather well with young Latino men because of the machismo factor.
00:39:14.020
And why I see you're shaking your head. Is that, is it bad to say?
00:39:17.640
Latin people for Republicans are like roaches for raid. Let's just get real. So I just feel like
00:39:26.200
there's a level of, of self hate or just lack of care for the rest of your Latin brothers and
00:39:32.240
sisters who are in cages, who are, are, are being demonized by this president. I mean,
00:39:38.660
hate crimes against Latin people are way up. And how can you not, I mean, 23 people were shot in El
00:39:44.800
Paso for just being Latin and, and, and, and you, and you don't care. So you're going to go for this
00:39:50.720
braggadocio president. I don't, I just feel like it's self hating and selfish.
00:39:57.560
So not much of an argument there. You see John Leguizamo trying to make several arguments,
00:40:03.260
but he can't complete the thought cause none of them cohere. So he'll make one, he'll say,
00:40:07.800
what you're going to vote and people in cages. What do you mean? Latin people in cages. Oh,
00:40:12.640
he's referring to those photos that were going around when president Trump was enforcing our
00:40:15.800
border. And it showed some people, I don't know, kind of in cages or behind it, at least behind
00:40:20.840
metal. And what John Leguizamo doesn't know is those photos came from 2014. And those photos
00:40:26.520
were from the Obama administration because the guy who put the, the illegal aliens in cages
00:40:32.840
was Barack Obama. And the policy that required this sort of behavior came from the Clinton
00:40:39.520
administration. Came all the way back from the nineties. So not Trump's fault. Then he blames
00:40:44.400
him because there were shootings in El Paso. Trump is now responsible for El Paso. Doesn't make a lot
00:40:51.300
of sense to me. What about Beto O'Rourke? Wasn't he, isn't Beto O'Rourke, wasn't he the representative
00:40:54.400
from El Paso? No, it doesn't blame him. It just blames Trump. So there's no argument here. And what he's,
00:40:59.280
what he's playing into is this oppression narrative, which was contrived in the 1970s and 80s,
00:41:04.580
largely by the Ford Foundation actually, but by a lot of left-wing activists who saw the
00:41:10.540
effectiveness of the black civil rights and black power movement in the 1960s and 70s
00:41:16.040
and tried to replicate it for other groups. But the thing about this is, Mike Gonzalez actually
00:41:20.880
puts this very well in his recent book. I think it's called The Plot to Change America.
00:41:27.520
The, the, the kind of grievance politics only works for black people. If it works at all,
00:41:32.380
it only works for black people and specifically the descendants of slaves because only black people
00:41:38.440
came to the United States on slave ships in chains against their will. All the other groups
00:41:43.840
came to the United States voluntarily. Somebody's great granddaddy, somebody's ancestors down the
00:41:50.440
line chose to come to America. They came here for a purpose because it was better to come here than
00:41:56.000
to stay where they were. And so it's completely incoherent for the, you know, extraordinarily
00:42:02.340
privileged, great, great grandchildren like John Leguizamo, a millionaire actor, Hollywood celebrity
00:42:08.760
to come out and say, we're all so oppressed. No, you're not. Not only are you not oppressed now,
00:42:13.620
but your ancestors weren't oppressed. They chose to come here voluntarily, but they try to do this
00:42:18.800
with every single group. They're doing it now with Middle East, North Africa. People from the
00:42:22.780
Middle East have always been classified as white in the United States, but in the past decade or so,
00:42:27.100
especially during the Obama administration, they tried to reclassify them as Middle East,
00:42:30.580
North Africa. Linda Sarsour was behind this. Linda Sarsour was one of the voices behind this.
00:42:34.920
And she's a radical left-wing activist. She, she started wearing a hijab. She was asked once,
00:42:39.160
why, why do you wear the hijab? She said, if I don't wear the hijab, then I'm just another boring
00:42:43.140
white lady in New York. Shows you the, the reality of white privilege, so-called. If there were such a
00:42:49.580
thing as white privilege, then people wouldn't be trying to disassociate with white people and
00:42:57.360
identify with a new group called Middle East, North Africa. The actual privilege is to be part of an
00:43:03.100
aggrieved, victimized minority. There is no privilege for being, I mean, you just see this in affirmative
00:43:07.960
action, right? You see this in hiring practices and college acceptance practices. So John Leguizamo,
00:43:13.860
no one's ever accused John Leguizamo of being the most sophisticated political philosopher in the world.
00:43:17.700
But his argument here with the, with the Latinos has all of those premises behind it. And then it
00:43:22.820
plays on a concept that goes all the way back to Karl Marx and then was really expanded by what you
00:43:27.920
call neo-Marxists or cultural Marxists under Antonio Gramsci, for instance, or the new left,
00:43:33.220
Herbert Marcuse. A lot of these, a lot of these people you saw throughout the 20th century who were
00:43:36.860
explicit Marxists working in the cultural sphere, they would describe false consciousness. The feminists
00:43:42.240
of the 1970s made this into the mainstream. The, the, the idea of a false consciousness being,
00:43:50.660
it comes, it comes from these consciousness raising groups that radical women would have around New
00:43:55.300
York. They, and women would go there and say, gosh, I never knew I was oppressed. Before I went to the
00:44:00.820
meeting, I thought I had a nice, happy life. But after I left the meeting and my consciousness was raised,
00:44:06.080
the way the phrase exists today is called raising awareness, but then it was called raising
00:44:09.900
consciousness. My consciousness was raised. And now I realize how aggrieved and victimized and
00:44:14.640
oppressed I am. And that's what John Leguizamo is saying. These people, they're self-hating Hispanics.
00:44:18.860
They hate themselves. It's like a roach voting for raid. It's, they don't get it. They think they're
00:44:24.300
happy and they think they love America and they think they have a good life and they think their
00:44:28.220
ancestors came here for a reason, but they're wrong. It's actually all terrible. It's be miserable,
00:44:33.540
be miserable like me. That's what he's telling them. And the most ridiculous of all came from
00:44:39.200
Elizabeth Warren, who said that Trump is not just threatening one specific group, in her case,
00:44:44.100
I suppose, the Cherokee, but that President Trump is threatening all life on earth.
00:44:49.840
We are reaching a moment on our planet in which the crisis that is upon us may no longer be one
00:45:00.180
that we will be able to successfully fight back against. The climate crisis is here and no,
00:45:06.460
it is not, the science around this is not controversial. The science is clear. In fact,
00:45:13.000
you know what scares me to death? Is every time we get more data and reanalyze the data,
00:45:17.260
what we discover is the problem's even worse than we thought. We have even less time than we thought.
00:45:22.860
And so what has Donald Trump done for four years? He not only hasn't made things better,
00:45:29.500
he has actively made them worse. Donald Trump threatens the existence of human life of all life
00:45:38.920
on this planet. Can somebody get Senator Warren a fainting couch, please? She is becoming positively
00:45:45.300
hysterical. I love this idea that the Democrats always do this because they're always fear mongering.
00:45:51.800
They're doing it on the virus, as President Trump said to the press right at the very top of the show
00:45:55.080
today. And they're doing it on the environment. They're doing it, they've been doing it for decades
00:46:00.080
and decades. They used to do it on population, the population bomb. We're all going to be starving
00:46:04.320
by the 1980s. What happened? The world population doubled and people have never been richer or fatter.
00:46:10.300
They, they do it with, they did it with global cooling in the 1970s and we're all heading for an ice
00:46:14.300
age. And then now they're doing it with global warming and who knows, they're going to do it with global
00:46:17.580
moderation. Pretty soon, who knows? She goes, listen, listen, we, we told you that the world was going to end
00:46:24.980
in 12 years. Well, now it's actually, it's going to be sooner even. So it's sooner, 10 years. Is that,
00:46:31.560
well, is that enough to get you all terrified? How about nine years? How about, it's going to end
00:46:35.260
in 95 minutes. If you don't vote for us right now, please, please vote for us. Help us. The world is
00:46:40.240
going to end. I don't think so. AOC told, what is it? Two years ago, she told us it was going to end in
00:46:45.700
12 years. Keep track of that clock, by the way, because now we're down to 10 or even less than 10.
00:46:50.760
Actually, a couple of years ago, Prince Charles, one of the kookier members of the
00:46:54.800
British royal family told us the world was going to end in 18 months, which by my, by my clock
00:47:00.560
means that the world has ended. It's over. We've, it's ended. And I guess, are we in heaven now?
00:47:07.080
Are we in hell? Uh-oh. Well, looking around the political scene, it doesn't feel like heaven.
00:47:12.600
Obviously, these things are preposterous. The world is not, I mean, no one knows the time or the hour,
00:47:17.160
but at least the sun monster is probably not going to end the world within Elizabeth Warren's timetable.
00:47:21.440
They're ginning up this hysteria on the racial issue like John Leguizamo and then on the global
00:47:28.300
planetary issue like Elizabeth Warren because they're losing power and because for the first
00:47:35.080
time in my lifetime, Republicans are not willing to just be losers and play their assigned role.
00:47:40.540
Whether that's in the media, you know, sometimes there's the, there's the one conservative place,
00:47:45.160
but they're not really conservative. They actually roll over. Or in the elected government,
00:47:50.040
you know, there are a few conservative politics, but they're not really conservative. They just
00:47:53.180
roll over. They're like Michael Steele or in wherever. For the first time, you got a guy
00:47:59.100
pushing back against these things. On, on the Hunter Biden stuff, on the DOJ, on the FBI, I will tell you,
00:48:05.480
this is, we're talking about firsts in our lifetime. This is by far the most impressive October
00:48:12.480
surprise of my lifetime. Usually before elections in October, you will have some big campaign reveal.
00:48:17.860
In 2016, the October surprise that Democrats had was they had a video of Donald Trump cracking jokes
00:48:23.580
with Billy Bush during Access Hollywood. Cracking jokes about, oh yeah, I, this woman will let me do
00:48:31.220
whatever I want, that sort of thing. Locker room talk, as it was called. In 2020, we now have evidence
00:48:37.760
that the Biden family is crooked and also that they were looking at kiddie porn on Hunter's laptop.
00:48:44.100
We didn't even touch on that today. I guess we'll have to get to that tomorrow.
00:48:48.320
We still have like what, two or three weeks until the election.
00:48:52.680
This is that famous Chinese curse. May you live in interesting times. We're already living through
00:48:57.380
one Chinese curse. Now we've got another one too. The one thing I can, I'm not going to predict the
00:49:01.680
future. The one thing I can promise you though, October is not over and many surprises are yet
00:49:06.020
to come. I'm Michael Knowles. This is the Michael Knowles Show.
