Transcript

00:00:00.000 President Trump is forcing a national embarrassment on all of us by not yet conceding an election
00:00:08.540 to presidential candidate Joe Biden. That is at least the story according to presidential
00:00:14.520 candidate Joe Biden. Sir, what do you say to the Americans that are anxious over the fact that
00:00:20.360 President Trump has yet to concede and what that might mean for the country?
00:00:23.780 Well, I just think it's an embarrassment, quite frankly. The only thing that
00:00:31.940 how can I say this tactfully? I think it
00:00:37.700 will not help the president's legacy. I think that I know from my discussions with foreign leaders
00:00:49.460 thus far that they are hopeful that the United States democratic institutions are viewed once
00:00:56.760 again as being strong and enduring. And but I think at the end of the day, you know, it's all going to
00:01:04.380 come to fruition on January 20th. And between now and then, I hope an expectation is that the American
00:01:11.620 people do know, do understand that there has been a transition. Yeah, we do understand that there's
00:01:18.060 been a transition. There's been a transition from the election into the legal process that will
00:01:23.280 determine the next president. You know what I think is a national embarrassment? The fact that
00:01:27.440 there's even a possibility that this doddering, crook, liar, plagiarist could possibly become the
00:01:35.460 president, but he isn't the president yet. There's a whole lot of hoops to jump through before we find
00:01:40.080 out who the next president will be. I'm Michael Knowles. This is the Michael Knowles Show.
00:01:48.060 Welcome back to the show. Joe Biden, an absolute embarrassment. That's what they say. This gets me
00:01:59.320 so hot under the collar. This gets me so fuming, so stressed out that we've got to go through this
00:02:06.140 nonsense. Not merely the legal process of determining who the next president will be, but also counter the
00:02:12.100 completely uniform media narrative. It gets me so pent up full of energy. The only way I can get it
00:02:17.920 out is with my Rad Power Bike. I strongly recommend you get a Rad Power Bike. It can take you around
00:02:24.380 town, can take you around nature, whatever you want to do. It's a great way to get outdoors without
00:02:28.380 getting too hot or too sweaty. They're tons of fun. You know what Rad Power Bikes do? They can go up to
00:02:34.000 20 miles per hour without pedaling so that you can get out and about, but you don't need to work too
00:02:38.580 hard to do it. They're also very affordable. Most e-bikes are in the $3,000 range. You know me,
00:02:44.000 I'm a little bit more frugal. I don't necessarily want to spend that. Rad Power Bikes start at just
00:02:48.420 $999. Most are under $1,500. They're really, really cool. It's a great hobby. It's also a great
00:02:56.060 way to commute, especially these days as traffic is starting to pick back up again. I think they're
00:03:01.640 just absolutely terrific. It also makes a great gift for someone who loves being active and loves being
00:03:06.580 outdoors. Right now for a limited time, Rad Power Bikes offers flexible financing for as low as 0%
00:03:12.960 APR. That is as good as you can possibly get. Plus free shipping. Bikes are going to go super fast.
00:03:20.040 They, they already are actually. So make sure that you order right away. Text NOLS, K-N-O-W-L-E-S to
00:03:26.660 64,000. Today, get free shipping. That is NOLS, K-N-O-W-L-E-S to 64,000. Text NOLS to 64,000.
00:03:36.260 We are possibly going to transition, possibly I say, to a president who doesn't know how to text
00:03:42.400 to numbers. Do you remember? You just had to go to Joe 30, 330. That would be very embarrassing if that
00:03:48.760 man were to become president, but he hasn't yet. I felt Secretary of State Mike Pompeo had a much
00:03:53.520 better answer on this. He was, he was asked as part of this media narrative that the race,
00:03:58.800 which has not been called, has been called, and that we know that Joe Biden is going to be president.
00:04:03.180 We don't know that. We won't know that for quite some time. He had a great answer on it as to how
00:04:07.920 he's going to handle this transition. Is the State Department currently preparing to engage with the
00:04:12.740 Biden transition team? And if not, at what point does a delay hamper a smooth transition or pose a risk
00:04:18.540 to national security? There will be a smooth transition to a second Trump administration.
00:04:25.860 All right, we're ready. The world is watching what's taking place here. We're going to count
00:04:30.500 all the votes. When the process is complete, there'll be electors selected. There's a process.
00:04:35.280 The Constitution lays it out pretty clearly. The world should have every confidence that the
00:04:39.760 transition necessary to make sure that the State Department is functional today, successful today,
00:04:44.220 and successful with the president who's in office on January 20th, a minute afternoon, will also be
00:04:50.660 successful. That is what an adult sounds like. That's what a responsible politician sounds like.
00:04:58.240 He has a bit of a joke. You know, they say, are you ready for the transition? He says, I'm absolutely
00:05:03.040 ready for the transition into a second term. And he says, look, what will the transition be? We may get a
00:05:08.920 second term. We may not get a second term, but we are going to follow the legal process. The idea
00:05:14.040 that Joe Biden is suggesting that this is a great embarrassment that we don't know who the
00:05:17.780 president is yet. First of all, if that is an embarrassment, that embarrassment is the fault
00:05:22.100 of Democrats who forced widespread unsolicited mail-in voting on us. Unprecedented has never
00:05:27.440 happened before. And they knew, they admitted at the time that if you have widespread unsolicited
00:05:31.420 mail-in voting, you're not going to know who the president is on election night. And it's kind of
00:05:36.040 interesting if you look at how the votes were counted, that it seemed to shift from President Trump
00:05:40.980 to Joe Biden in the middle of the night. Sometimes when they said there weren't even votes being
00:05:46.520 counted in certain places and without Republican poll watchers, notably in Philadelphia. So yes,
00:05:52.980 a legal process will play out. Bush v. Gore. How long did that take? 38 days or so total. I don't
00:05:58.360 remember Joe Biden calling it an embarrassment that Al Gore would not concede in that election,
00:06:03.280 even though he had no evidence whatsoever that that election could be overturned. No,
00:06:08.220 that is not an embarrassment. What is an embarrassment is that people want to break
00:06:11.840 our constitutional norms, which clearly provide a legal process for how this election is going
00:06:18.800 to go. The media haven't learned that. Maybe the media have learned that and they, they just
00:06:22.720 want to play dumb. And for some members of the media, they don't have to play too hard at playing
00:06:27.640 dumb. I actually, a member of MSNBC admitted this. So right now, and I think the story, people,
00:06:36.020 people are not talking about it. There's a battle between Democrats and Republicans. Okay.
00:06:40.540 There's another battle going on. And Mike Pompeo is alluding to this, which is the foreign policy
00:06:45.840 battle. And there, it's not so much Republican Democrat as elected people, the American people
00:06:53.580 speaking through their elected representatives and the deep state, the permanent bureaucracy,
00:06:58.540 which is most pronounced in the intelligence community and in foreign policy. That is where
00:07:03.840 these guys who are the true swamp creatures. That is where they tend to live. Bill Kristol talked
00:07:08.820 about this and other national security Republicans, you know, the types who just don't really care
00:07:13.780 about what's going on too much at the domestic level. They just want to force their particular
00:07:17.400 liberal internationalism on everybody. Bill Kristol was asked if you had to choose between the deep
00:07:24.140 state or the swamp state, what do you pick? He says, I choose, or I'm sorry, the deep state of the
00:07:28.000 Trump state. He said, I choose the deep state, which is to say he chooses the swamp state.
00:07:31.540 That is a big battle going on right now. And you're going to see in the coming days,
00:07:36.240 the intelligence community, the state department, foreign policy, that is going to be brought
00:07:39.820 far up to the forefront because you had a foreign policy consensus basically since Bush the first,
00:07:47.820 if not even earlier than that. And the president would change. You had Bush, you had Clinton,
00:07:51.960 you had Bush, you had Obama, and the foreign policy wouldn't change. There was a joke in 2008.
00:07:56.900 They said, they told me if I voted for John McCain, we'd get another war in the Middle East. And that
00:08:01.060 was true. I voted for John McCain. We got another war in the Middle East. Obama's foreign policy was
00:08:04.920 basically indistinguishable from McCain's foreign policy. Maybe Obama gave a little more money to
00:08:10.980 Iran, but in terms of the constant wars, the never ending wars, that was the same policy. You
00:08:16.200 didn't, you didn't see that really change at all. The policy of bombing Saddam Hussein every so often
00:08:20.260 that had been going on for a very long, for a very long time. So that battle is going to come up
00:08:27.540 and the media haven't learned a thing here. This MSNBC host, I guess he thought his microphone was
00:08:32.920 off. I guess he thought the camera was off, but he was asked what he knows. And I thought he gave a
00:08:37.020 very precise answer.
00:08:39.260 Ken Delaney has some new reporting on something that we talked about at the top of the hour,
00:08:44.680 how the Trump administration is handling the transition with the incoming Biden team or
00:08:50.740 not handling it. We should say to a certain extent this time,
00:08:54.460 it involves our intelligence community. Uh, Ken, what have you learned, sir?
00:08:59.840 Oh, s**t. F**k.
00:09:06.740 Okay. Uh, I think we lost, I think we lost Ken for a second. We'll try to get him back there.
00:09:12.140 Now they thought this was a mistake. Now they thought this was a mistake that it was accidental.
00:09:17.820 I don't think so. I think that was a very precise answer. What have you learned?
00:09:20.560 Not very much. I can't use the words cause I'll, I'll have to be bleeped out myself. So that's
00:09:27.020 pretty, pretty fair. That should be the headline. What has the media learned? Blank, blank, absolutely
00:09:32.240 blank. But then they cut back to him. They cut back to the guy and he makes his point. And you hear in
00:09:38.300 the premise that the Biden president elect Biden is transitioning in the election hasn't been called,
00:09:44.540 but he's transitioning. How is this going to work for the intelligence community?
00:09:50.300 Hey, Craig. First, I want to sincerely apologize to viewers who may have heard some, uh, me use
00:09:54.700 profanity at the top of the, at the last hit. But what we're learning today is the potential impact
00:09:59.960 of the resistance of the Trump administration to acknowledge the Biden win in the intelligence
00:10:05.900 arena specifically. The intelligence community. Why do I care what the intelligence community
00:10:12.900 thinks about a duly elected president? Or in the case here, a not duly elected president,
00:10:19.160 someone who we don't know who the president is going to be. Why do I care what the intelligence
00:10:23.040 community thinks? I like the intelligence community when they do their job well. That's good. I guess
00:10:27.700 it helps our national security. I despise the intelligence community when they decide that they
00:10:33.500 are going to take our Republic into their own hands and try to undermine or overturn an election
00:10:38.600 as they did in 2015. And as they did in 2016, this is what would be one of the greatest losses
00:10:45.180 if president Trump ultimately does not prevail in this election. If Joe Biden is named president,
00:10:50.900 one of the great losses is that the deep state blob will solidify, will reform. And president
00:10:58.040 Trump has done a great job of exposing these guys. Had Hillary Clinton won in 2016, we would have had no
00:11:03.700 idea, no idea that the deep state under the Obama administration spied on the Trump campaigns.
00:11:10.220 You use the weapons of the state to spy on their political opponents. We would have had no idea
00:11:14.460 that they cooked up phony intelligence with the Hillary campaign and the DNC to try to frame
00:11:20.660 president Trump, which led to a Mueller investigation for however many millions of dollars and two and a
00:11:25.520 half years, which led to a fraudulent impeachment, which led to so much because of these particular
00:11:31.080 leaks. Chuck Schumer admitted this early on when Trump said, I'm going to clean up the deep state,
00:11:35.380 particularly the intelligence community. Chuck Schumer said, you should never go against the
00:11:38.780 intelligence community. They can kill you nine ways from Sunday. They can get you so many different
00:11:43.680 ways. They got dirt on everybody. Don't go up against them. That is what he said. And I think it was
00:11:48.700 actually probably good advice to president Trump. Trump, fortunately though, had some courage and stood
00:11:53.980 against it. What do I care? I don't care that the intelligence community wants Joe Biden installed
00:12:00.920 president before the legal process plays out. Does nothing to me. You know, Senator Cruz, who is not
00:12:06.780 just my favorite U.S. Senator, but my podcast co-host over at Verdict, Senator Cruz took a really great swing
00:12:13.560 at the deep state yesterday. He had Andy McCabe, that crooked FBI official who was deeply implicated in all
00:12:20.800 the hoaxes of the past few years and the, the spying on president Trump's campaign. He got him on the
00:12:26.220 hill and he grilled him on his wrongdoing. Did James Comey authorize you to disclose information
00:12:34.960 about the Clinton foundation investigation to the press? I didn't need James Comey's authorization.
00:12:42.800 I didn't ask if you needed it. I asked, did he authorize you to disclose it? That's a yes or no
00:12:47.520 question. I authorized the disclosure. Okay. You're still not answering my question. Did James Comey
00:12:53.640 know about it and did he authorize it? Yes or no. Did he know about it? To my recollection, sir. Yes,
00:13:00.240 he knew about it. Did he authorize you? Did he, did you, did he in any way give you the green light
00:13:05.500 explicitly or implicitly? I didn't ask Jim Comey. I'm not asking whether you asked. I'm asking.
00:13:12.880 Okay. According to the Washington times, April 18th, 2018, Mr. McCabe insisted. He told his boss
00:13:18.700 that, that he had authorized disclosure about the Clinton investigation, but Mr. Comey has denied this
00:13:23.460 claim. Uh, and Mr. McCabe told investigators that Mr. Comey knew he had authorized disclosure
00:13:30.160 and agreed. It was a good idea. Is that accurate? Is that your testimony to this committee?
00:13:36.360 That is my recollection.
00:13:37.540 Oh, finally we get an answer now. That's terrific. That's wonderful. Thank you, Mr. McCabe. It only took
00:13:43.680 700 tries. This is the thing about Senator Cruz that most impresses me. I do not say this to flatter him
00:13:51.880 or because I'm, he's a friend of mine or because we've got this show together. I say this because he
00:13:57.980 is better at this than any elected Republican. I know he can grill down to the heart of the argument
00:14:05.120 and he can sniff out when someone is giving him BS, basically unlike anything I've ever seen.
00:14:10.820 You saw right at the beginning, he goes, did James Comey authorize this? And, and McCabe goes, well,
00:14:16.420 I, I, I didn't, I didn't ask James. Did I ask you if you asked James Comey? Well, I, I, and it doesn't
00:14:22.200 seem to be answer the question, buddy. And it's, it really puts you off, off your guard. I remember
00:14:28.080 Senator Cruz did this to Mark Zuckerberg one time. He, he was asking him basically, hey, Mr. Zuckerberg,
00:14:36.480 why is, what color is the sky? Oh, the sky's blue. Yeah. Hey, Mr. Zuckerberg, does two plus two equal
00:14:41.740 four? Yeah. Oh yeah. It equals four. Okay. Hey, Mark Zuckerberg, why was Palmer Lucky fired? And it,
00:14:47.260 it just kind of throws you off balance. And finally you get an answer like we saw here. But the other,
00:14:52.840 the other line that Cruz uses very smart, it obviously comes from his courtroom experience
00:14:58.100 is he doesn't ask a question. He doesn't know the answer to. So he knew the, those answers the
00:15:02.720 entire time. And then he nails McCabe. You're aware that your testimony is 180 degrees opposite.
00:15:10.360 Mr. Comey's sworn testimony to this committee in which he insisted he has never authorized anybody
00:15:16.560 to leak to the press. I, I don't, I'm not going to say what director Comey said or didn't say to you
00:15:25.060 that would, however, your characterization of a leak is not accurate. The FBI has records that
00:15:33.100 will establish whether you're telling the truth or Mr. Comey's telling the truth. Do you believe
00:15:36.900 the FBI should make those records public? So if you're telling the truth, you can be vindicated.
00:15:41.700 And if Mr. Comey is telling the truth, he can be vindicated.
00:15:49.520 I'm not sure what records you're referring to, uh, Senator. Any and all emails, correspondence,
00:15:54.920 records whatsoever indicating that Mr. Comey knew of your leaks and authorized them.
00:16:00.040 I would very much like to see those records as well. As would I. Thank you.
00:16:04.040 As would I. And I believe Senator Cruz immediately after that exchange went out and drafted a letter
00:16:13.240 to Chris Ray at the FBI and to Bill Barr, the attorney general to, to let those records open
00:16:18.780 up. It can get a little confusing in this exchange because we're talking about all these arcane
00:16:22.140 details, but what it comes down to is when we're talking about the disclosure of the investigation
00:16:27.060 of the Clinton foundation, when we're talking about all the shenanigans that have been going on
00:16:30.600 at the FBI and DOJ for the past, uh, four years, but notably when, when James Comey was in charge
00:16:35.740 there, you're getting conflicting stories from Andy McCabe and from James Comey. Why? Well,
00:16:42.620 you're getting conflicting stories now because James, Andy McCabe knows that he doesn't want to
00:16:46.600 perjure himself. He knows that it's a crime to lie under oath and he's a slippery guy, but he is not
00:16:52.880 going to implicate himself in that crime. So now you've got these two guys going after one another,
00:16:57.060 regardless of whether or not president Trump gets a second term, it's very important to expose these
00:17:04.360 guys. Now it is very important to dig up as much of the swamp as is possible. The president's done
00:17:11.040 a good job so far. He's got to ramp that up. Now this is the time to make it happen because under a
00:17:16.620 prospective Biden administration, none of that is going to happen. And these weasels who are taking
00:17:21.120 away your constitutional rights and your political power, these weasels are going to get away with it.
00:17:26.740 If we don't take care of it now. And I think every other us Senator on the Republican side
00:17:30.880 should be doing exactly what Senator Cruz did today. And I hope that the attorney general
00:17:34.960 and the director of the FBI will release records. I mean, this is something president Trump could do
00:17:39.360 right now. It would be wonderful release, declassify any and all records that can expose
00:17:48.800 these political monsters, these deep state swamp creatures that are undermining our constitutional
00:17:56.460 government. Declassify him. You know who has the right to declassify whatever he wants? The president
00:18:02.360 of the United States. Talk about a smooth transition. Do we want a smooth transition to a swamp creature
00:18:09.400 or do we want to give the people what they voted for in 2016? At least a little bit in the event that we
00:18:17.360 are not transitioning into a second Trump term. And we very well may be, but we've got to be prepared.
00:18:23.320 It's very important to be prepared. It's very important to be ready. That's why we love our
00:18:27.360 friends over at ReadyWise. Now is a better time than ever to be prepared with long-term nutritional
00:18:33.860 food options. ReadyWise has a ton of options. You know this. Emergency meals, freeze-dried fruits and
00:18:39.220 vegetables for convenient on-the-go nutrition, new adventure meals for hiking, camping, and other
00:18:44.180 outdoor activities. Now, because of increased demand, supplies are limited right now. Some items may
00:18:50.840 currently be out of stock. You got to call in quick. When government resources are strained,
00:18:57.220 it can be days. It can be weeks before fresh food is available. Do not put yourself in this situation.
00:19:02.540 I think we conservatives know it's important to be prepared for any event. It gives you peace of mind.
00:19:08.440 And for me, that's what I want. Also, there was an instance where we had ReadyWise meals around the
00:19:13.400 office and I noticed they were disappearing. And I asked him, one of my producers was eating them for
00:19:17.140 lunch just all the time. There was, we were not under insurrection. He just felt they were delicious.
00:19:21.000 You add water. They were excellent. Right now, my listeners can get free shipping at ReadyWise.com

00:19:55.880 There is a role for spooks in government. There have been many spies who have done many very good
00:20:01.080 things to help the national interest of the United States, but there are a lot of crooked spooks too.
00:20:06.620 Like these people in the deep state, some of whom occasionally have to testify. There's one career
00:20:11.620 spook that may drive me the craziest of all though. And that man's name is Egg McMuffin,
00:20:17.540 Mr. Evan McMullen, who ran valiantly against President Trump in 2016. He was going to be
00:20:25.460 the conservative alternative because he was a career at the CIA and then he worked on the Hill
00:20:31.500 for a little bit and then he was an investment banker. And he was going to be the wonderful
00:20:35.740 alternative to that monster, that unconservative man, Donald Trump. And thankfully he didn't win.
00:20:42.500 He got about four votes and he's proven himself to be unworthy of the public trust every day since
00:20:50.800 then. It's funny because, you know, I had this disagreement in 2016 with Jeremy Boring. We agreed
00:20:56.960 on many, many aspects of the election, but I, though I was skeptical about whether or not Trump would be a
00:21:01.760 New York Democrat or whether he'd be a conservative, I voted for him. I felt the alternative was so
00:21:06.180 awful that I was willing to take a chance on Trump and I'm glad I did.
00:21:11.000 Jeremy voted for Egg McMuffin because he just, he was too skeptical of Trump. And he says now,
00:21:16.480 he says, look, I think it was still defensible to be very skeptical of Trump in 2016, but
00:21:19.680 I do regret voting for the Egg McMuffin because the Egg McMuffin has, has exposed what he really is
00:21:28.420 and what too much of our intelligence community has become. Egg McMuffin just tweets out, quote,
00:21:33.720 we should keep and publish a list of everyone who assists Trump's frivolous and dangerous attacks on
00:21:39.180 the election. Name and shame forever. He is just the latest to join in on this attack on our free
00:21:48.160 government, which is to say that we need enemy lists. Anybody who supports the president, you saw this
00:21:54.360 from the Trump Accountability Project, who says that we need to publish lists. We need to go after
00:21:59.980 people who supported Trump, worked for Trump or funded Trump. You know, anybody, anybody on the
00:22:04.680 right, the real right, not the fake Egg McMuffin liberal right. AOC has suggested this sort of thing.
00:22:11.200 A lot of people have. And now we've got the allegedly wonderful conservative guy. I got to tell you
00:22:15.360 something. The fact that this guy was a spook for so many years, that he had access to some
00:22:19.440 information that the rest of us did not have access to, that he had the protection of various
00:22:24.120 clearances. That doesn't make me feel very good about our government. I don't know what this guy
00:22:28.080 did overseas, but I don't like that he had any sort of covert powers in this country because he's
00:22:35.180 obviously a petty little tyrant who should be kept away from the levers of power forever.
00:22:39.940 They talk about Trump as an authoritarian. It's these people. It's these swamp creatures that are
00:22:44.280 the authoritarians. President Trump is the most democratic, transparent element in our politics
00:22:49.940 in my lifetime. And frankly, for a great deal before my lifetime as well. And there are a lot
00:22:56.360 of clandestine operations going on, not just overseas, many clandestine operations going on
00:23:01.580 right here in our own country. The chairman of the Georgia Republican party just came out and tweeted,
00:23:09.980 quote, let me repeat, Fulton County election officials told the media and our observers that
00:23:15.860 they were shutting down the tabulation center at State Farm Arena at 10.30 p.m. on election night,
00:23:20.360 only to continue counting ballots in secret until 1 a.m. No one disputes that Fulton County officials
00:23:28.020 falsely announced that the counting of ballots would stop at 10.30 p.m. No one disputes that Fulton
00:23:33.240 County election officials unlawfully resumed the counting of ballots after our observers left the
00:23:38.640 center. This is a pretty troubling theme. That's from David Schaefer, by the way. Highly recommend
00:23:42.200 you follow him on Twitter. He's been giving a lot of great updates on all of this. What people keep
00:23:48.660 telling us is that, listen, you can't make up 10,000, 20,000, even 50,000 ballots in the discrepancy
00:23:57.800 between Trump and Biden. You can't make it up on fraud because fraud generally is pretty thin.
00:24:02.460 That's true. Usually you cannot. We are in an unprecedented situation with these mail-in ballots.
00:24:07.960 This has never happened before in our history. We've never had widespread unsolicited mail-ins.
00:24:13.160 And so because those are more open to fraud, and there's no evidence to the contrary because it's
00:24:18.140 never happened before, you just have to use common sense here. Because of that, and because we seem to
00:24:24.600 find a, I won't say it's a coordinated effort, but it's certainly a coincidental effort that Republican
00:24:29.560 poll watchers are being kicked out dramatically in Philly, even after a court order, they're being kicked
00:24:35.660 out in Georgia, where they kicked out elsewhere too. We're finding out that glitches, a little glitches
00:24:40.100 in the, in the machines of these voting places, wrongly switched thousands of votes from Trump to Biden
00:24:47.560 because of software that's used on 47 machines. Now the election officials are saying, oh, that was just
00:24:52.880 a glitch. It was a human error. We caught the glitch. Just happened in one place. No big deal. Well, forgive me
00:24:59.780 if I'm a little skeptical of those claims. It seemed to be happening all over the country, all in these very
00:25:05.900 tightly contested races. We need to shed light on those things. We're going to shed light through the legal
00:25:13.400 process and the courts to see who won the 2020 election. We should, we should be shedding light on a lot of
00:25:19.020 the fetid clandestine information that has gone around in our deep bureaucracy for far too long.
00:25:29.760 Politics makes very strange bedfellows. You know, the idea that I'm now opposing a, a guy who worked
00:25:37.220 on the Hill. He was a lifelong Republican, it seems. He says he was a conservative, served in the CIA. I do
00:25:42.820 know people who served honorably in the CIA. The idea that we're opposing this now is a little strange,
00:25:47.500 but those are the circumstances that we're in. That is the kind of treatment that Egg McMuffin and
00:25:52.160 people like him have earned. Even more bizarre, I find myself siding with a Democrat in this case,
00:25:57.680 Joe Manchin. He's the closest thing to a conservative Democrat left in the country.
00:26:02.640 He's from West Virginia, so he has to be. President Trump is still going to duke this out. We did just
00:26:08.000 get some good news that if Joe Biden does ascend to the presidency, that if this Georgia election does
00:26:14.240 not go our way, if they find more Democrat ballots, that the Democrats still will not be able to ram
00:26:20.500 through their agenda because Joe Manchin, a Democrat, will stop it.
00:26:24.640 If both of the Georgia, uh, senators were elected from the Democratic Party, uh, then that would be 50-50
00:26:32.080 if both Dan Sullivan and Tom Tillis win. 50-50 means there's a tie. But if one senator does not vote on a
00:26:40.560 Democratic side, there is no tie and there is no bill. So I commit to you tonight and I commit to all
00:26:45.920 of your viewers and everyone else that's watching, I want to lay those fears, I want to rest those fears
00:26:50.480 for you right now because when they talk about whether it be packing the courts or ending the
00:26:57.540 filibuster, I will not vote to do that. I will not vote to pack the courts, I think, and I will not vote to
00:27:02.920 end the filibuster. Brett, this system, the Senate was so unique body in the world. It was made to work
00:27:09.040 together in a bipartisan way. And once you start breaking down those barriers, then you lose every,
00:27:14.480 every reason that we are the institution that we are, the most deliberate body. So I want to lay
00:27:18.720 those fears to rest that that won't happen because I will not be the 50th Democrat voting to end that
00:27:25.520 filibuster or to basically, uh, block, stack the court. That is genuinely good news. Now, listen,
00:27:32.320 words are just words until they're translated into action. So let's hope that, that Joe Manchin would stand
00:27:38.320 by that. But I think what Joe Manchin is seeing is something we all saw on election night, which is
00:27:42.720 that we were told there's going to be a blue wave. You remember that? It's going to be a blue wave
00:27:46.300 across the country. And yet there wasn't. Now, after the election, magically votes are appearing that
00:27:51.340 are going to maybe swing a Senate seat or two, but it didn't happen. The Republicans didn't get blown out
00:27:55.640 in the Senate. We picked up seats in the house and it sure looked like we won the presidential election
00:28:00.580 on election night and who knows how it'll turn out in the courts. Even if we don't end up maintaining
00:28:06.840 the white house, there was no blue wave. And the progressives, many Democrats believe caused that
00:28:12.440 shellacking. So a lot of more conservative or more moderate Democrats are now saying, I don't want to
00:28:17.640 be part of that. Well, if, if Joe Manchin says he won't vote to end the filibuster, if Joe Manchin says
00:28:22.280 he won't vote to pack the court, well, all of a sudden some of the most radical proposals from the
00:28:27.380 Democrats are gone. Something tells me he wouldn't vote to make Puerto Rico a state or DC heaven for
00:28:32.520 fend a state either. That is a little bit of good news. Joe Manchin explains what's he going to be
00:28:38.520 against? What's he going to oppose? He says this point is basically a Republican. And then all the
00:28:43.200 other things you're hearing about Brett also is defund the police. I don't know of any of the
00:28:47.860 Democrats in the caucus that are for defunding the police. We're not for that whatsoever. And when
00:28:53.120 they talk about basically, uh, Medicare for all, we can't even pay for Medicare for some doesn't
00:28:59.060 make any sense at all. We've got to fix the affordable care act we have. And I think our
00:29:03.840 Republican moderate Republicans will work with us to now repair what needs to be repaired.
00:29:09.180 Also great news. The thing is that elected Democrats have very largely supported defunding
00:29:15.620 the police. They've been pretty open about it. And just through the green new deal, that's a major
00:29:19.540 radical proposal that talks about redistributing wealth. It talks about a Medicare for all. It
00:29:24.920 just includes it includes a healthcare plan. And Kamala Harris, the vice president endorsed it. She
00:29:29.100 was, she was, I believe the first Senate sponsor of that legislation. So there are some, I don't think
00:29:35.360 Joe Manchin is telling the truth about his colleagues here, but at least he's telling the truth about
00:29:38.720 himself. Hopefully that will lead to the soul searching. Some people thought you'd get from
00:29:42.140 the Democrats. It won't lead to it on a party wide level, but if you can, if you can chip away at one or
00:29:48.080 two Democratic senators, that does help us. Politics makes very strange bedfellows. We're,
00:29:54.340 we're in a situation now. I never thought we would be in, which is that the conservative Republican
00:29:59.520 president hates Fox news. Trump, Trump hates Fox news. Trump used to love Fox news and Fox used to
00:30:06.880 love Trump. Conservatives used to love Fox news. Fox used to love conservatives. Now, do you know who
00:30:12.740 loves Fox news? Brian Stelter at CNN? We did talk about Fox news and he's very disappointed at Fox
00:30:21.400 news at very crucial moments. Uh, the debate Chris Wallace is moderating was terrible, really hurt. I
00:30:28.040 think, uh, the president and then, you know, they called the election. They called Arizona with 14% of
00:30:33.820 the vote in you. Many other networks never called it. Meanwhile, they wouldn't call Florida for hours.
00:30:38.800 Why? What was going on at Fox news that they didn't want to give the president the sense
00:30:43.020 that he was winning or had the potential shot of winning? Um, Fox has a great decision desk. I
00:30:48.520 respect their decision desk. They don't, they don't, they don't do it like that. They don't play
00:30:51.840 games like that. Chris, I think media malpractice. Let's look at the Fox news poll. It was off by
00:30:58.380 what? Eight points. Almost every poll was in the data coming out of Fox was not good at all.
00:31:04.560 Yeah. We're going to get into the polls, but, but the Fox, the Fox polls were scientific. They were
00:31:08.520 trying their best. I love the, Oh, I love Fox news. Yeah. We here at CNN, man, last couple of
00:31:14.180 days, man, we've just been loving Fox news. Frankly, they made us blush a little bit when
00:31:18.760 they called Arizona for Joe Biden before anybody. And for no reason whatsoever, we said Fox, slow it
00:31:25.680 down. I know you want to, you want to seem like us for a couple of days, but come on. So anyway,
00:31:29.700 in conclusion, Chris, and no, we, we love Fox news over here at CNN. That was, that was Chris
00:31:35.060 Ruddy, by the way. Uh, Chris Ruddy is the head of Newsmax, which is a conservative competitor
00:31:40.260 to Fox and, uh, Newsmax has remained quite conservative. You know, this, this changing
00:31:47.620 of the guard, this changing of political perspectives on cable news reminds us among the established
00:31:55.120 outlets. There is no conservative voice. There isn't one. We thought there was, but there
00:32:03.880 isn't. It's all against conservatives. And now it seems it's against the president. If
00:32:09.140 you want to replace that established media, you want to go to dailywire.com, become an all
00:32:14.060 access member. That's our elite tier of membership and, uh, and support that replacement media.
00:32:19.720 We've got a lot of great plans this year. This is actually my last show in my studio here
00:32:25.460 in Los Angeles. I'm, I think I'm basically the last guy in the building. I'm going to
00:32:29.820 turn the lights off behind me. We are heading to Nashville. We've got some great plans ahead.
00:32:33.500 We're bringing Candace Owens over to the daily wire, which has been in the works for, I don't
00:32:36.980 know, five years, but, uh, recently it's been in the works for, you know, a month or two.
00:32:40.880 We've got some great plans for her and a lot of other people, a lot of new creative content
00:32:43.880 coming out there. So make sure you head on over to dailywire and subscribe. We'll be right
00:32:47.140 back with a lot more. We are back. We have to replace the media. I don't even think it's
00:33:05.980 just the news media we have to replace. We've got to replace the Hollywood media. We've got
00:33:10.500 to replace all aspects of the media. I was heartbroken. I was heartbroken the other day
00:33:15.480 because I thought there are so few good guys in Hollywood, forget conservatives. I just
00:33:20.900 mean guys who are kind of balanced or kind of normal, who aren't constantly prattering
00:33:24.880 on about politics when all I want to do is watch them in the movie or watch them in the
00:33:28.100 TV show. And Chris Rock, not Chris Rock, The Rock, different rocks. The Rock broke my heart.
00:33:36.560 Chris Rock actually didn't break my heart. He's still pretty funny. But The Rock, Dwayne The
00:33:41.160 Rock Johnson broke my heart. The Rock came out, he was kind of a moderate Republican. He's
00:33:46.140 now, he came out and endorsed Joe Biden. And that's not even my big problem with him. The
00:33:52.320 Rock said that when Joe Biden won, he hasn't won yet, but when Joe Biden won, when the media
00:33:57.920 decided to call it for Biden, The Rock cried.
00:34:01.240 I wanted to shoot this yesterday when the news broke, but I got a little emotional. Admittedly
00:34:10.980 so, I got a little emotional yesterday. Manly tears, of course. I may have cried a tear
00:34:15.860 or two or ten, but they were all very manly. All my tears are manly. But the reason why I
00:34:22.940 got emotional yesterday was because of what I felt my vote represented. And I was talking
00:34:31.900 to Lauren, my wife, we were talking about our two little baby girls. And that's exactly
00:34:36.060 what my vote represented. My vote represented my little daughters. My vote represented humanity.
00:34:43.140 My vote represented decency. It represented the values and the principles of which we teach
00:34:50.220 our little girls. And my vote also for me represented the importance of just being a good, decent
00:34:58.640 human being.
00:34:59.180 So nothing that he just said means anything. It's, it's, it's as though he went up to a
00:35:08.340 platitude slot machine and just kept, he put, kept putting quarters in, you know, he pulled
00:35:12.660 it and he said, decency. Yeah. I voted for decency. And yeah. And my daughter is your daughter.
00:35:17.560 I guess we're all voting for our family, right? Isn't that? And, and cha-ching and cha-ching
00:35:22.260 decency. Joe Biden is a crooked liar plagiarist. One of the most notorious in the country. He
00:35:32.500 is a complete empty suit. Even if you don't like Trump, you're going to say we elected an
00:35:36.340 empty suit. Who's a crook. Whose family enriched themselves by peddling American influence. That
00:35:41.660 makes me feel so decent. My daughters are going to love that. Why? Your daughters like crooks?
00:35:46.900 What? Your daughters like peddling American influence? I don't think, I don't think your
00:35:49.700 daughters probably care about the election at all, frankly, but people always do this.
00:35:53.880 They exploit their kids for the election. That's what demagogues do. He cried over this. Have
00:36:00.040 you cried over presidential elections? Asking the men in the audience here, have you cried
00:36:05.420 even Trump? I love that Trump got elected. I got such a kick out of that. I didn't cry.
00:36:10.640 And you know, I hated that Obama got elected and I really hated that he got reelected.
00:36:14.420 I didn't cry. Drank a little bit. I didn't, I cry. That's very embarrassing. We want to
00:36:23.660 talk about a national embarrassment. That's a, that's a national embarrassment to go out
00:36:27.360 and say this publicly. But it seems to me that what the rock is trying to do is position
00:36:32.280 himself to have a political career. I think that's why he's taking these stands right now.
00:36:36.500 I think his, his calculations are pretty cynical. I think he was always a kind of moderate Republican.
00:36:40.940 There have always been, there's a little bit, a little chatter that the rock might get involved
00:36:44.360 in politics. Again, I'm just speculating, but I suspect that does describe or explain why he keeps
00:36:52.820 coming out with these videos. And he thought he picked a winner and maybe he did, but he is now,
00:36:57.100 he's gone from being a kind of moderate centrist, quiet Republican to just parroting democratic talking
00:37:02.540 points. Notably, he had to hit the identity politics. He had to talk about how wonderful it is
00:37:07.880 that Kamala Harris may be elected vice president because of course, not because she's smart,
00:37:14.120 not because she's ever done anything in her career, because she, she is a woman and not just
00:37:20.900 a woman, a woman of color. The second congratulations, of course, goes to our brand new vice president
00:37:29.040 elect Kamala Harris. Uh, the very first woman ever, um, to become a vice president and certainly
00:37:36.300 the first woman of color, uh, to become a vice president as a, as a man of color and as a man
00:37:42.580 who, um, loves and respects women. Uh, this is pretty special. So first of all, again, this little
00:37:50.260 bit at the end here sounded a little forced. It sounded like, uh, I don't know, like he was,
00:37:55.480 there was some subtext to it where he goes, and as a man who loves and respects women, like I love women,
00:38:00.300 I, you'll never find a greater supporter of women than me. And they're like, why are you,
00:38:03.820 why are you defending yourself like that, pal? No one's making any accusations, but then he,
00:38:07.640 he opens it up in this typically liberal way, progressive way where, where it is better to be
00:38:13.280 a woman than a man. And it's better to be of color, whatever that means than white. And so he says,
00:38:18.680 Kamala Harris, she's the first woman to be elected vice president. And she's certainly the first woman
00:38:24.280 of color to be elected vice president. You say, well, hold on. She, you're saying she's the first
00:38:30.000 woman. So obviously she would be the first woman of color. Then you make a point, you say,
00:38:33.400 and she's certainly the first woman as if it's in doubt as to whether we had a white woman vice
00:38:36.760 president, which I, I suppose we could have had Hillary won and Tim Kaine became the vice
00:38:41.500 president. I suppose that would have been possible. What is he referring to? Is he making
00:38:44.340 some kind of snide remark about Dan Quayle? Hey, Kamala, she got elected, right? I guess,
00:38:50.420 I guess if the, if the media are to be believed, maybe she didn't get elected. Then you have to take
00:38:53.560 this video down. And, and that's the question that he, he gets to, because he's, he's assuming the
00:38:59.460 narrative that they've gotten elected. And then he says, what does this mean? What does this vote
00:39:03.840 mean? This very hot, hotly contested vote that's going all the way up to the courts. What does it
00:39:08.100 mean for our nation? And you know what he says? He says it means we're unified.
00:39:12.360 We have had the biggest voter turnout in the history of the United States. And you know,
00:39:19.980 that is such a big deal because, you know, it tells me, number one, we were unified on that day.
00:39:24.780 Just in terms of everybody coming together, everybody coming out to vote, mailing in your
00:39:30.940 ballots, doing everything you possibly can, exercising the democratic right to vote, which
00:39:36.500 was a beautiful thing. Okay. People did exercise their right to vote. Maybe some cadavers exercised
00:39:42.320 that right too. But the one thing it didn't prove is that we're unified. This is a hotly contested
00:39:49.160 election with lots of talk of irregularities and lots of lawsuits that even if these numbers
00:39:55.040 are completely right, is one of the narrowest elections at any level that we've ever had in
00:39:59.700 this country. That isn't unity. That's division. And the left is not promoting unity whatsoever.
00:40:07.740 Give you just an example on campuses. Bates college in Maine did a series. They did a series about voting
00:40:13.620 in the 2020 election. They posted photos to their Instagram account of various student organizations
00:40:17.760 and various students. One of whom, I know this is shocking, one of whom was a Republican,
00:40:23.220 was the head of the college Republicans. There was a rally to pressure the administration
00:40:29.320 to take the photo down. The school's president showed up to the rally to tell the administration
00:40:39.000 that he or she runs to take the photo down. And then the school's president apologized for the photo.
00:40:48.240 Because you're not allowed to be a Republican on campus. You're not allowed to be a conservative
00:40:53.300 on campus. It's not permitted. Unity. Time for healing. Time for coming together. I don't think so.
00:40:58.640 I think they're giving us on the left this kind of soft rhetoric so that we will concede an election
00:41:05.940 that we should not concede yet. That hasn't played out the full legal process. And something tells me
00:41:10.760 that these lists that all these people are making, the punishment lists, the Trump accountability
00:41:16.100 project, the truth and reconciliation commission, tells me those are a little bit more indicative
00:41:21.900 of what we have in store if Biden wins this election. It's a politics of division. The left
00:41:28.300 always talks about this politics of division. And it's kind of funny because the politics of division
00:41:32.100 sometimes loops back on the leftists themselves. Eva Longoria, who, it's a name that I've heard,
00:41:38.460 but I actually don't have any idea what she's done. I know that she's famous. You know,
00:41:42.300 she's in Hollywood or something. And I know that she's a left winger. Eva Longoria came out and she
00:41:46.520 was celebrating the election that the media have already called. And she said, the people we've
00:41:50.720 really got to thank here, the real people that we got to thank are Latina women. Here she is.
00:41:58.140 The women of color showed up in big waves. Of course you saw in Georgia what, what black women have
00:42:05.660 done, but Latina women were the real heroines here, beating men in turnout in every state and voting
00:42:11.660 for Biden Harris at an average rate close to three to one. And that wasn't surprising to us. You
00:42:17.000 know, Latinos are the CEOs of the households. They make all the financial decisions and healthcare
00:42:20.780 decisions and educational decisions. Many Latinas are small business owners and they wanted a plan for
00:42:26.220 recovery for themselves, not for Wall Street. And so Trump's policies were never aimed at the
00:42:31.660 struggling Latina community. And, you know, if you look at voter suppression on top of that,
00:42:38.140 how Latinas showed up, even through, through the closing of polling places and the shutting down
00:42:43.680 of drop off sites and new voter ID laws and long lines and driving 30 miles and, and all of that.
00:42:49.160 And on top of that restrictions and safety protocols of a, of a pandemic, that spirit and perseverance
00:42:55.080 that, that Latinas use in their daily lives, the struggle to pay their bills and the struggle to show
00:42:59.560 up to their jobs and homeschool their kids and take care of their elders. That's the same
00:43:03.320 perseverance and spirit they use to show up at polls. Wow. So brave. And so many lies in that
00:43:12.080 statement. So many inaccurate statements. First of all, I love, we now have the highest voter turnout
00:43:16.940 ever. You know, if, if these numbers are to be believed, the highest voter turnout ever. And yet the,
00:43:21.540 the liberals are still talking about voter suppression. I don't think the vote was suppressed. I think when
00:43:27.220 you have a 71 and 73 or 74 million people voting, uh, on each side, I think the vote is, has not been
00:43:35.480 suppressed. The other thing that drives me crazy in her statement before we even get to the meat of
00:43:39.480 it is she speaks English very well. She speaks English just as well as I do, except for that one
00:43:47.300 word. She gets to that word, which is a kind of contrived, uh, statement. I actually agree with some
00:43:52.460 leftists on this point that the idea of the Latina or Latino or Hispanic, rather than people from
00:43:57.720 specific countries like Guatemala or Mexico or El Salvador, the idea of the pan Hispanic thing is
00:44:02.400 kind of a, a contrivance of liberals to try to create racial solidarity modeled after the black
00:44:07.540 civil rights movement in the sixties. That's a bit of a digression. Her pronunciation of the word
00:44:11.980 Latina is ridiculous. She is speaking English. And when you pronounce the word Latina in English,
00:44:20.860 it's pronounced Latina or Hispanic, or I don't know, you could get more specific on the nationality.
00:44:27.340 It is not pronounced Latina because that's not how you say words in English. For instance, I am Italian.
00:44:34.480 I'm of Italian extraction, Sicilian to be specific. I speak Italian. I read Italian. I go to Italian
00:44:41.740 restaurants. And when I go to Italian restaurants and I get my menu, which is invariably in English,
00:44:48.460 I'll see some Italian words there. So, and I'll talk to my waiter, even if the waiter is Italian,
00:44:54.000 mostly we speak in English. Maybe we'll chat a little bit in Italian. Mostly we speak in English.
00:44:57.520 And when I'm speaking and I order, I say, okay, yeah, I'd like a nice tea and I'd like a Caesar salad
00:45:03.520 to start. And then I would like, uh, gli spaghetti alle vongole. And then I would like the, the,
00:45:11.240 the bread pudding for dessert place. No, I don't do that. I don't do that. Even though I get,
00:45:16.540 gli spaghetti, gli spaghetti alla carbonara. I could say that, but that's very silly and ridiculous
00:45:21.560 because I'm speaking English. The same thing holds for Latina. People should drop that silly
00:45:27.580 pronunciation. If you want to unit, unify, bring us all together and speak English. That's fine.
00:45:34.100 But that's not what got Eva Longoria in trouble. What got Eva Longoria in trouble is that she
00:45:40.900 focused on Latino women to the exclusion of black women. She said Latino women were the real heroes.
00:45:48.720 She didn't realize where Latino women rank on the hierarchy of victimhood on the intersectionality
00:45:54.400 scale. They have more privilege, it turns out, than black women. And so she apologized and said black
00:45:59.720 women have long been the backbone of the democratic party, which as a, as a matter of fact,
00:46:03.820 is not true for most of the history of the democratic party, white slave owners were the
00:46:08.420 backbone of the democratic party. Uh, and in recent history, I don't, I mean, I suppose black women do
00:46:13.540 vote Democrat at large numbers, but you know, the black Americans are 12% of the population,
00:46:20.060 something like that. Black women about six and a half percent. So they may vote Democrat in strong
00:46:25.360 numbers. It wouldn't be the backbone of the party, right? Because they're just numerically,
00:46:29.500 there just aren't enough of those voters, but she had to pander too. She had to apologize. And I'm
00:46:33.800 perfectly happy that Eva Longoria had to apologize. Before we go today, I'd like to point out
00:46:39.740 something that no one is going to talk to you about today, because what we're going to talk
00:46:44.460 about when we think of our country is national embarrassments to use Joe Biden's phrase.
00:46:50.140 They're going to tell you this country is awful. It's racist, sexist, you know, bigoted, evil,
00:46:55.600 colonial, I don't know, whatever. And they're going to say the country started in 1619 when the first
00:47:00.000 slave ship arrived in Virginia, but it didn't. That's not true. Country started the following
00:47:03.820 year in 1620. Actually, on this very day in 1620, when the pilgrims landed at Cape Cod.
00:47:10.740 Now they did not all disembark at Cape Cod. They then went down to Plymouth Rock. And we'll talk
00:47:15.320 more about the Plymouth Plantation when we get to that wonderful day in history. But today was the day
00:47:20.340 that the pilgrims landed in America and the pilgrims founded our country. And they signed
00:47:24.880 the Mayflower Compact to all live together. The pilgrims, who were these radical Protestant
00:47:30.020 zealots, and the strangers, who were not particularly zealous. And some of them got
00:47:36.460 into some bad stuff. Coincidentally, four of my ancestors were on that ship. One of them was a
00:47:43.400 very good, upright, virtuous pilgrim. Three of them were kind of derelicts, the strangers.
00:47:49.180 Dr. Samuel Fuller was the pilgrim. And then Stephen Hopkins was one of the strangers. John
00:47:54.920 Billington was the first man executed for murder in the New World. And Francis Eaton was the fourth
00:48:00.040 one. Those guys and the other passengers of the Mayflower helped to found this country. That's
00:48:05.680 the starting point. And when the 1619 Project talks about reframing American history, they're
00:48:10.400 talking, they're not even just talking about rewriting. They are being honest. They're reframing
00:48:15.040 it. Where do you put the focus? When you're making a movie, when you frame something,
00:48:18.480 you decide what you're going to put into focus and how you're going to adjust that lens.
00:48:22.920 And that's what they're trying to do. They're trying to make you forget about the pilgrims.
00:48:25.360 They're trying to make you forget about the Mayflower. They're trying to make you forget
00:48:27.560 about the first Thanksgiving. They're trying to make you forget about the Mayflower Compact
00:48:30.720 and Plymouth Plantation and the heritage that we took from England, care of Leiden in the
00:48:37.440 Netherlands, all the way here. They want you to forget about that. In favor of what? They want
00:48:43.920 you to forget about our legal processes for the Constitution, how to conduct elections. Don't forget
00:48:48.060 about it. Have a toast today to the pilgrims. They probably would not have had much of a toast. They
00:48:52.300 were sort of teetotalers. They had beer because it was safer. But maybe you can have a toast to the
00:48:57.700 pilgrims today to very difficult times that our country's gone through, which the pilgrims
00:49:02.920 certainly endured. Half of them died in that first winter. And to coming out better for it,
00:49:08.860 to having hope in Providence, which they certainly did. And I do too. And we'll have to see how it plays
00:49:13.420 out in the short run. In the long run, though, I'm sure we'll all be safe. I'm Michael Knowles.

00:50:17.480 Hey everyone, it's Andrew Klavan, host of The Andrew Klavan Show. Trump continues to fight the
00:50:23.460 fight for the election, but there's a fight up ahead no matter what happens next, and that's
00:50:27.580 the fight to replace the media. We're all over it on The Andrew Klavan Show.
