00:00:00.000 To commemorate the first day of Pride Month, the New York Times is admitting that conservatives
00:00:05.060 are totally right about transgenderism. In a profile of Will Thomas, who is the hulking
00:00:11.720 male swimmer that beat all the girls at the NCAA championship, the Times included a section titled
00:00:17.660 The Debate Over the Science. But as the Times acknowledged, there is not much debate.
00:00:24.840 Beginning in the womb, the Times admits, men are bathed in testosterone and puberty accelerates
00:00:31.640 that. Men, on average, have broader shoulders, bigger hands, and longer torsos, and greater lung
00:00:38.220 capacity and heart capacity. Muscles are denser. The Times even quotes a sports physiologist who
00:00:45.580 applies these scientific facts to Will Thomas. Quote, Thomas is the manifestation of the scientific
00:00:53.320 evidence. Dr. Ross Tucker explains to the Times, the reduction in testosterone did not remove
00:01:00.220 her biological advantage. Lots of conservatives are going to be happy that the Times is finally
00:01:07.560 acknowledging that boys and girls are different. They're going to say that this may finally be the
00:01:14.200 beginning of the end for transgender ideology. And I hate to burst their bubble, but I think
00:01:21.720 the opposite is true. I think this is the beginning of an even more radical stage of the sexual
00:01:27.920 revolution. In the past, transgender activists have tried to argue that men who think they're
00:01:34.460 women really are women. And it was never very convincing, but they were trying, at least,
00:01:40.480 to make sense of transgenderism. Increasingly, it seems they've given up on that. Now they're not
00:01:47.320 interested in making sense of their sexual ideology at all. They're just interested in enforcing it.
00:01:53.820 No more logic, no more arguments, no more sense. Just the sheer tyranny of Will. I'm Michael Knowles
00:02:01.900 as The Michael Knowles Show. Welcome back to the show. I think that should be the title of his memoir.
00:02:12.820 I want a royalty credit on that. The tyranny of Will, the Leah Thomas story.
00:02:18.620 Sheer, brutal tyranny of Will. The NCAA championship of 2022. My favorite comment yesterday is from
00:02:25.480 Percy, who says, I've been addiction free for a month and I've never felt better. But to see an ad
00:02:32.240 say stuff like, don't be ashamed. You are using, be empowered. You are using safely is just pure
00:02:38.840 insanity. Yes, it is. Talking about that ad on the New York City subway yesterday, where it's a heroin
00:02:43.820 addict saying, don't be ashamed that you're shooting up drugs that could kill you. Just be happy that
00:02:48.920 you're using relatively clean needles. That's a horrible thing to tell an addict. Of course,
00:02:53.700 addicts should be ashamed. Notice that the people who are putting up these signs are not addicted to
00:02:58.500 heroin themselves. They say, no, you shoot up heroin, you dirty, filthy, poor people. You shoot up
00:03:03.780 heroin. I would never have any of my precious family do that. Sort of like the people who say,
00:03:07.660 look, I would never get abortion. I would never kill my beautiful, precious children.
00:03:11.860 But all you dirty, smelly, poor people, you should kill your children, right? No. No. How about we
00:03:16.500 encourage things that are good for everybody? How about we protect our country, our way of life,
00:03:21.960 and our home? You want to protect your home? You got to check out Ring. Right now, go to ring.com
00:03:27.100 slash Knowles. Summer is such a wonderful time. I cannot wait to get away. I love Nashville,
00:03:32.880 but it's the pollen capital of the world. I'm excited to go to Bermuda, Jamaica. Baby,
00:03:37.980 I want to take you to Kokomo. I want to get out of here, okay? And I can do that. I'll have peace of
00:03:42.200 mind because of Ring. Ring protects your home. You know about the Ring video doorbell. You can see
00:03:48.080 and speak to whoever is at your door, no matter where you are, whether you're in Montego, Bermuda,
00:03:53.840 Bahama, wherever. You can talk to that person. You can get the Ring alarm. You can keep an eye on your
00:03:58.800 windows, eye on your doors. You can protect from freeze, fire, flood, the bad guys, everything.
00:04:04.000 And then you can go pro. CNET calls Ring Alarm Pro a giant leap for home security because it protects
00:04:10.040 not only your physical home, but your digital home. How much of your life do you live online?
00:04:14.980 Well, it protects your Wi-Fi router. It protects your data. Protect everything with Ring, especially
00:04:20.340 this summer, especially when you're on the road. I absolutely love these guys. They make me feel safe.
00:04:25.080 They've been with the show pretty much from the very beginning. Go to ring.com slash Knowles. That
00:04:29.220 is ring.com slash Knowles. This is not the beginning of the end of transgenderism. I'm sorry to tell you,
00:04:37.260 I wish that it were. Conservatives have been waiting for years now. They say transgenderism,
00:04:42.460 that's it. That's going to be finally the damn breaking with all this crazy leftism. They're not
00:04:48.600 going to be able to hold it together anymore. People are going to flee. I'm not sure that's true.
00:04:52.320 Not sure that's true at all. Frankly, at least in the old days, when they would say, look,
00:04:58.540 the hulking giant dude with the giant Adam's apple and wearing the tight little women's swim trunks
00:05:04.220 where you can see all of her body parts, she is totally a woman, right? And we all knew that that
00:05:11.480 wasn't true and it was so obvious, but at least they were trying to have some kind of coherent
00:05:17.240 argument. Now they don't do that. Will Thomas basically will just say, and the people around
00:05:23.180 him will say, yeah, he's got an advantage. Well, too bad. Will Thomas was asked about this very
00:05:28.960 problem and he didn't even address the argument. He didn't even really try to make sense of it.
00:05:34.240 He's just said, look, this is what I want. And so I'm going to do it.
00:05:36.380 There are some who look at the data and suggest that you're enjoying a competitive advantage.
00:05:44.640 What do you say to that? There's a lot of factors that go into a race and how well you do. And the
00:05:52.880 biggest change for me is that I'm happy. And sophomore year, where I had my best times competing
00:06:01.400 with the men, I was miserable. And so having that be lifted is incredibly relieving and allows me to
00:06:11.000 put my all into training, into racing. Trans people don't transition for athletics. We transition
00:06:20.880 to be happy and authentic and our true selves. Look, I'm happy. Oh, what about the girls who don't
00:06:28.820 want me to strip naked in their locker rooms? Well, who cares what they think? There's somebody
00:06:32.880 else. They're not me. And this is what I want. Oh, oh, you're asking me about the girls whose
00:06:38.180 trophies I'm taking away and whose championships I'm taking, potentially whose scholarships I'm
00:06:41.780 taking. Yeah, there are other people. I don't care about them. I care about me, me, me, me, me,
00:06:46.680 me. I'm happy. This is my authentic self. Now, obviously it's not his authentic self. He is
00:06:51.940 authentically a man and he is deluded and thinks that he's a woman. And now our society,
00:06:56.780 which has lost the thread even more than this guy has, is encouraging him to say that he's a woman.
00:07:02.220 He is not authentically a woman. Ultimately, it's not going to make him happy. These lies don't make
00:07:06.880 anybody happy, not in the long term. But he's not even addressing the question of truth and falsehood,
00:07:13.480 the question of reality. He doesn't care. He is just locked entirely in his own will,
00:07:19.660 in his own irrational desires. With all the pollen in the air in Nashville, it sort of sounds like I am
00:07:25.560 transitioning right now. That's what it's going to sound like for a lot of people. With him,
00:07:29.860 he doesn't even sound like he's on any particular drugs. He's got a deeper voice than I do right now.
00:07:35.040 And he says, look, well, last year when I was competing with the men's team and I wasn't winning
00:07:38.640 the races, I was sad. And now I'm competing on the girls team and I'm beating all of them because I'm
00:07:43.080 a hulking giant dude and I'm happy. So why are you asking me about all this nonsense about how boys
00:07:49.200 have an advantage over girls and biology and reality? How dare you? How dare you talk about
00:07:54.320 my happiness and the happiness of others? Who gives a damn? That's much scarier.
00:08:01.760 When people are making bad arguments, that is preferable to people not making arguments at all.
00:08:07.480 Because not making arguments at all just reduces politics to grunting and irrational sounds and
00:08:13.040 brute force and interest. And increasingly, that's what our politics looks like.
00:08:16.540 And there is a catering toward this extremely small sexual minority. The San Francisco mayor,
00:08:24.620 London Breed, has just announced her plan to tackle the homeless problem. There's a huge
00:08:30.820 homeless problem in San Francisco. That city has collapsed in recent years. There's crime everywhere.
00:08:35.740 You want to talk about needles and addiction. There's needles all over the streets, human feces all
00:08:40.100 over the streets. The city is looking really, really bad. But London Breed is not going to be
00:08:45.340 addressing homelessness writ large. She's not going to be spending money to tackle the homelessness
00:08:50.480 problem. She's spending money to tackle transgender homelessness. She says,
00:08:57.900 today I announced my five-year plan to end transgender homelessness in San Francisco,
00:09:02.820 which includes investing in programs to support and create real long-term change in the lives of
00:09:09.380 transgender people. She's going to be spending six and a half million dollars to do this.
00:09:15.680 Why? Why? Why are all of the resources going toward an extremely small number of sexual deviants?
00:09:23.620 Why? It's not that I don't have sympathy for these people. It's not that I don't want to help these
00:09:28.140 people. But why are they the only people that we're helping? How about homeless veterans? Don't you
00:09:33.380 think maybe homeless veterans deserve a little bit of our taxpayer money? Don't you think they
00:09:38.440 deserve a little bit of our attention? This is going to be shocking to say, don't you think they
00:09:42.700 might even deserve a little more of our attention than people who you are defining simply by their
00:09:48.220 perverse sexual identities and desires and self-conception? Don't you think maybe, if you went
00:09:55.860 out and you served our country and you put your life on the line to defend our freedom, don't you think
00:09:59.680 maybe you deserve a little of our consideration? No. How about the homeless elderly, senior citizens?
00:10:06.600 Don't they deserve any of our consideration? No. Only an extremely small minority of men who think
00:10:13.680 that they're women, usually, and an even smaller minority of women who think that they're men,
00:10:18.520 whose delusions we are encouraging, they get all the attention. They get all the money. They get all
00:10:23.260 the focus to the exclusion of everyone else. It's a hierarchy. And part of the reason that this is
00:10:29.140 happening is because the left understands incentives and they like this. They are promoting
00:10:33.780 sexual confusion. They are discouraging a politics based on reason, based on purpose,
00:10:40.220 based on traditionally understood conceptions of the good and what's right and what's true and what
00:10:45.480 leads to a flourishing society. And they're encouraging people to pursue one moral maxim above
00:10:51.080 all others. Namely, if it feels good, do it. This is why Kirk Cameron, the actor who's an outspoken
00:10:58.480 Christian, just came out. He got in a lot of trouble yesterday. He was trending all over social media
00:11:03.060 because he was encouraging homeschooling. And he said public schools are not merely neutral. Public
00:11:09.460 schools are not merely ignoring what is good and true and beautiful, but they're actively undermining
00:11:14.540 all of it. They don't want to abandon their children to a system that by and large is doing
00:11:22.060 more grooming for leftist politics and sexual chaos and racial confusion than they are doing any real
00:11:32.140 educating about truth, beauty, and goodness. 100% totally right. How could you send your kid
00:11:41.980 to these schools today? The public schools, a lot of the private schools, for goodness sakes,
00:11:48.180 even some of the Christian schools are encouraging this stuff. The point of education is to, is to
00:11:53.940 educate you. It's to train you. It's to cultivate all those best things in you. It's to, as Kirk points
00:12:00.600 out, pursue the good, the true, and the beautiful. So if all the schools are doing is grooming leftist
00:12:06.540 politics and sexual chaos, how could you send your kids there? By the way, the wealthy, the elite,
00:12:12.260 they're probably not sending their kids there. They're probably sending their kids to a more ordinary,
00:12:17.480 at least relatively more ordinary, serious school that might in some way educate them.
00:12:22.680 But for all the rest of you hoi polloi out there, no, spend your days watching Drag Queen Story Hour
00:12:26.820 because that's good for our political agenda. So says the left. Pretty soon, we're going to have
00:12:31.220 to do things for ourself, not just to school our kids, but also to fix our cars. That's why you got
00:12:35.300 to check out Rock Auto. Right now, go to rockauto.com, write Knowles in their How Did You Hear About Us box.

00:13:37.660 any other parts you need. Be sure when you check out to write Knowles in their How Did You Hear
00:13:41.820 About Us box so they know that we sent you. You want to see how bad the situation has gotten in
00:13:47.480 the schools. It's not just the weird, creepy sex stuff, though that's a big problem. It's the racial
00:13:53.000 miseducation that's going on too. Every day that we think the racial division in schools can't get any
00:14:01.580 worse, every day we look and we say, gosh, why are they teaching critical race theory in math class?
00:14:06.240 It does somehow get worse. There is now a Chicago school that is implementing a race-based grading
00:14:15.140 system. This is Oak Park and River Forest High School where administrators will require that
00:14:24.160 teachers in the next school year adjust their classroom grading scales to account for skin color
00:14:29.880 and ethnicity. This is fair. They say that traditional grading practices perpetuate inequities
00:14:37.720 and intensify the opportunity gap. Now they're focused on basically just giving black students
00:14:44.960 an advantage and white students a disadvantage. They have to do this because it's the only way to
00:14:53.060 account for their ideology, which happens to be wrong. It is true. White students, generally speaking,
00:15:01.160 do better than black students in school. The only way that the libs are willing to account for this
00:15:07.940 is to say that the system is rigged unfairly against black students because there are two alternatives to
00:15:15.580 that. One, you could say that there were just racial differences in education. It's inborn. It's in your
00:15:21.480 DNA. You're never going to overcome it. So they're obviously not going to say that. And I don't think
00:15:27.060 anybody wants to say that. But then there is a pretty obvious answer to this, which is there are some
00:15:34.460 cultural issues here, some cultural issues at work. If you come from a home where you don't have
00:15:41.500 mommy and daddy at home, if you, like 72% of black people in America are born out of wedlock,
00:15:47.960 you are automatically at a disadvantage in education. You're automatically at a disadvantage
00:15:54.120 in all of your outcomes of life. Just that one factor. That is a pathology among what is called
00:16:01.740 the black community. It's kind of fun. Everyone has a community now. This month, we're only talking
00:16:05.120 about the gay community, but we're talking about the black community. Even though community should
00:16:08.000 really involve people who are living in community with one another, you know, who are in a local
00:16:11.940 place who work together. Anyway, that's a digression. So among black people in the United
00:16:15.460 States, this is a major, major problem. It wasn't always the case as recently as 50 years ago out of
00:16:20.280 wedlock births were much, much lower. But because of a number of cultural factors, some political,
00:16:26.540 some governmental factors, we're now at the stage where black people really are at a disadvantage.
00:16:30.780 But the left can't look at that because then the left would have to say, hey, there's something wrong here
00:16:34.760 in the incentives. There's something wrong here in behaviors. We're going to tell you there's a
00:16:38.320 standard. There's a norm. You have to get married. We encourage you to get married. It's wrong to not
00:16:42.900 get married. You have to raise your kids. It's wrong not to raise your kids. You have to do all,
00:16:47.160 and I'm just focusing on this one pathology that is afflicting black people in America.
00:16:53.600 The left can't address that because they would have to admit that something is fundamentally wrong in
00:16:59.060 their conception of the world, which eschews ideas of good and evil, right and wrong,
00:17:02.960 true and false, and basically just pursues the tyranny of the will. Do whatever you want whenever
00:17:06.520 you want to do it. Just don't make me pay for it. Just don't yuck my yum. Just don't tell me what to
00:17:11.240 do, that sort of thing. So instead, they have to go to this idea that it's all just fundamentally
00:17:15.860 rigged, and there will be no end to that. We're going to end up in the story Harrison Bergeron
00:17:21.480 by Kurt Vonnegut, where instead of having a politics that builds people up, that lifts people up,
00:17:27.360 that encourages people to do better and to flourish, we're just going to have a politics that breaks
00:17:31.180 everybody down, that punishes everybody if they excel in any way, regardless of their race,
00:17:36.660 regardless of their location. This is really bad. This is not just kids not learning from their
00:17:42.640 reading, writing, and arithmetic. This can be life and death. Did you hear about the mass shooting
00:17:46.240 over the weekend? No, you didn't. You heard about the mass shooting in Texas, that horrible shooting
00:17:51.260 at the elementary school. You heard about the mass shooting in Buffalo. Remember that a few weeks ago?
00:17:55.920 You didn't hear about the mass shooting where 46 people were shot, where 10 people were killed
00:18:04.100 in Chicago. That took place over the course of a few days in Chicago, Memorial Day weekend.
00:18:11.080 You didn't hear about that. One, because it was a mass shooting in slow motion. Didn't take place over
00:18:16.600 the course of three hours. It took place over the course of three days. Still, three days, blip of time,
00:18:21.240 really, really quick. And you didn't hear about that because it's politically inconvenient for Democrats.
00:18:25.300 And when there's a tragic attack that is not convenient for Democrats, I'm thinking of the
00:18:30.860 Waukesha massacre, where a guy drove his car into a parade. He seemed to have racial motivations.
00:18:38.520 I think he was a black nationalist. He drove his car into a parade of white people right before
00:18:43.200 Christmas. That disappeared from the news in about 24 hours. That wasn't convenient for the left's
00:18:48.660 narrative. Here in Chicago, you've got mostly black people being shot in a mostly black city that's
00:18:53.860 been run by Democrats since the Stone Age. And you don't hear about it. But I don't know,
00:18:59.020 that's pretty bad. I think it's just as bad if your friends or your family are killed over a three-day
00:19:05.860 period as though they were killed over the course of an afternoon. But that won't be addressed.
00:19:11.760 Because, of course, I don't need to tell you this. I'm preaching to the choir.
00:19:15.320 The Democrats are not interested in protecting people. The Democrats are not interested. Although they
00:19:21.000 are ginning up their rhetoric on the importance of human life, on the scourge of mass shootings,
00:19:28.160 they're turning that rhetoric up to 11. But they don't want to take the really basic steps,
00:19:32.300 the non-controversial steps, the steps we can all agree on to protect people. One example of this,
00:19:37.440 to go back to the shooting at the school, would be to what is called harden the schools. So you
00:19:42.580 install new doors so that you can't get in from the outside. You won't just have a door open to anyone
00:19:46.780 who wants to walk in. You can get out from the inside, but you can't get in from the outside.
00:19:51.060 You have one entrance. You have an armed guard or two armed guards at the one entrance of the school.
00:19:55.460 Really basic stuff that if it had been in place in Uvalde, the shooting would not have happened.
00:20:00.460 So people are asking Joe Biden now and asking his new press secretary, poor Karine Jean-Pierre,
00:20:06.240 hey, is Biden willing? He's so nervous. He's so upset. He's so worried about these students.
00:20:10.120 Is he willing to take this basic step? What does she say? No way.
00:20:14.260 The problem is with guns and not having legislation to really deal with an issue
00:20:21.240 that is a pandemic here in this country. And so that is not his focus, obviously. And when it comes
00:20:31.260 to schools, and I don't know what he said specifically about schools. I know there's been
00:20:37.600 conversation about hardening schools. That is not something that he believes in. He believes that
00:20:42.220 we should be able to give teachers the resources to be able to do the job that they're meant to do
00:20:49.580 at schools. And this is something that he's been focusing on since he was a vice president.
00:20:56.220 So those are two things that he does not agree on.
00:20:58.820 He does not agree with hardening schools. He wants to give teachers the resources they need to do their
00:21:04.500 job. Well, one of the teachers' jobs is to protect the kids. One of those resources would be a lock
00:21:09.060 on the doors. Pretty simple. Not very expensive. Not very hard to install. Not very ideological.
00:21:15.500 Just put locks on the doors. No, he's not going to do that. He's not interested in that. The issue is
00:21:20.940 the guns. What do you mean the issue is the guns? Do you know how per capita gun ownership has changed
00:21:27.880 over the last 50 years, 1970s to the present? Per capita gun ownership in the 1970s was about 43%
00:21:35.200 in the United States. Today, about 42%. It's stayed the same. Actually, it's decreased a little bit.
00:21:44.200 Why didn't we have all these shootings in the 70s? Can't be the guns. Have guns really advanced
00:21:50.460 so much since the 1970s? Not really. Not really. They're a little better. Maybe you get like a
00:21:57.720 slightly better scope, but now the guns are pretty much the same. The AR-15 is not a new gun. And the
00:22:03.900 AR-15 is used in very, very few, relatively very few killings every year. No, that didn't change.
00:22:09.780 Something has changed. Breakdown of the family, total collapse of church attendance, social chaos,
00:22:16.940 sexual chaos, huge spikes in depression, huge spikes in isolation. There are a lot of
00:22:22.060 fatherlessness. There's a ton of stuff that's changed. But no, the libs don't want to address
00:22:27.460 that because that contradicts their narrative. So they're going to focus on this one gun that
00:22:31.920 they've been trying to outlaw for decades. They actually did briefly outlaw it. The outlawing of
00:22:35.880 it didn't do anything. That's why we got the guns back. And they're just going to keep pushing that.
00:22:42.180 Hey, guys, can you just put a lock on the doors of the schools? No, sorry, that's too much.
00:22:47.520 It's just pure injustice. Increasingly, people feel that there are two justice systems,
00:22:54.520 that there are two, that when you go to this high school in Chicago, there's one system for the
00:22:59.040 white students and the Asian students, and there's one system for the black students and the Hispanic
00:23:03.420 students. And you're going to fall into one of those two systems based on the color of your skin.
00:23:07.500 And you're going to be graded more harshly if you're white or Asian than if you're black or Hispanic.
00:23:11.940 People feel that increasingly, if you're transgender or you have any other kind of
00:23:18.740 sexual confusion, you're going to be treated in an advantaged way. You're going to receive special
00:23:23.480 government benefits. You're going to receive special access through affirmative action and
00:23:27.440 through other programs to social benefits. And if you're not that, then you're going to be
00:23:32.840 disadvantaged. And you're seeing it in the justice system. One of the greatest miscarriages of justice I've
00:23:38.020 ever seen yesterday, the lawyer who lied to the FBI on behalf of Hillary Clinton to start the entire
00:23:44.800 Russia hoax got off the hook yesterday. Because increasingly, it seems like there are two different
00:23:51.180 systems of justice in this country. Now, June is a very special time. It's the beginning of summer.
00:23:58.540 It's when school's out. It's when the temperatures rise. It is a month that fills all of us
00:24:03.880 with pride, doesn't it? Isn't that the main thing it fills us with? Tonight at 8 p.m. Eastern,
00:24:09.020 I am so excited for this. I'm so excited. Matt Walsh's new Daily Wire original documentary,
00:24:15.540 What is a Woman, will finally premiere on backstage. This movie has been over a year in the making.
00:24:23.600 Ben, Drew, Matt Walsh, God King Jeremy Boring, and myself, we will all be sitting around backstage to
00:24:31.760 prepare for the premiere. I am so excited for this. I don't think I'm telling tales out of
00:24:37.480 school here. This movie cost so much money to make. We sent Walsh to Africa, okay? This movie
00:24:45.740 costs so much money to make. We can only do it because of you. We need your money. We need you
00:24:52.820 to subscribe to The Daily Wire. We appreciate all of you who have subscribed already. We need more of
00:24:57.940 you to subscribe, okay? We have been fortunate enough and lucky enough and blessed enough because
00:25:04.620 of your support to be able to avoid what all the libs want to be able to make us do, which is to put
00:25:09.680 all sorts of fetters and limits and controls on what we say, what we do, the kind of content we make.
00:25:15.180 And we've been able to avoid that because of you. So we need you to subscribe. You go to

00:25:25.380 What is a woman? Can you tell me that?
00:25:31.100 Well, you're at the Women's March. You must have some idea.
00:25:34.540 I'm a husband. I'm a father for, I host a talk show. I give speeches. I write books. I like to
00:25:40.300 make sense of things. A woman is not anything in particular. There is not one particular thing.
00:25:44.700 It could be many things to many people. Some women have penises, right? Some men have vaginas.
00:25:51.080 And so they go on the internet and they're told that all their problems will be solved if they
00:25:55.380 become a man. There are masculine girls. There are feminine boys. What are we going to do about
00:26:01.340 that? Carve them up? I care about the truth. I care about children. I care about the women who
00:26:06.940 are having their opportunities stolen from them. Based on what I'm saying, would you ever want to move
00:26:10.760 to America? They say no. Never.
00:26:23.280 I am so excited for this movie. The critics would love to shut us up, but we're not letting them for
00:26:28.500 now. We are committed to uncovering the reality behind this radical movement that's erasing women
00:26:33.500 and mutilating children. We're going to do it loudly and proudly. What is a Woman premieres tonight,

00:26:43.780 now. We'll be right back with a lot more.
00:26:57.800 One of the greatest injustices I have ever seen in our legal system took place yesterday.
00:27:03.280 And almost nobody's talking about it. And this is so frustrating because it's right out of the
00:27:11.180 Clinton playbook. Hillary Clinton's lawyer, Michael Sussman, he was the campaign attorney. He lied to
00:27:19.060 the FBI and cooked up a ridiculous story about Donald Trump having connections to a Russian bank.
00:27:25.060 The Clinton campaign, up to and including Hillary Clinton herself, gave the go-ahead to plant this
00:27:34.260 story, which they did to a credulous media. They did it to Slate, left-wing outlet. Slate, of course,
00:27:39.980 did absolutely no research and took the Clinton campaign's word as gospel truth and ran it. And then
00:27:45.780 this crooked lawyer, Michael Sussman, brought this ridiculous narrative, this hoax to the FBI and
00:27:54.360 lied to the FBI. He was asked, are you working for a political candidate? And he said, no, no,
00:27:59.240 I'm not doing this for any candidate, any campaign. I'm just a good American. I'm just a good old
00:28:05.940 fashion. I bleed the red, white, and blue. And I thought it was my civic duty to tell you that
00:28:10.360 Donald Trump is colluding with the Russians. And so the FBI ran with it. And it was a way for the
00:28:17.840 establishment, the liberal establishment, to go after Trump, to spy on Trump, to undermine Trump's
00:28:23.600 presidency when he won. And this guy who got caught dead to rights, we've got the receipts, we've got
00:28:29.860 the documents. He even charged the Clinton campaign. This guy is such a lawyer, such a dirtbag lawyer,
00:28:36.640 he wasn't even willing to take the, what, 18 or 24 minutes that it took him to lie to the FBI.
00:28:42.900 He wasn't even willing to take that on the arm. He billed them while he was committing a crime,
00:28:47.200 which proves the crime. And this rigged jury and this partisan judge let him off the hook.
00:28:55.860 He was charged with lying to the FBI. The jury included multiple donors to the Hillary Clinton
00:29:02.060 campaign. The judge was keeping evidence away from the jury in a way that was inexplicable unless you
00:29:08.680 realize the judge is just a partisan hack. And so this guy gets off the hook. And what the Clinton
00:29:12.900 campaign does, this is their old playbook, is deny, deny, deny, deny, deny. Hillary, did you plant the
00:29:19.600 Russia hoax? Deny, deny, deny, deny, deny, deny. Did you guys lie to the FBI? Deny, deny, deny, deny, deny.
00:29:24.760 We're now, what, six years out of this, of what actually happened? So you deny, deny, deny, deny,
00:29:30.020 deny for six years. And then when it's finally proven beyond a shadow of a freaking doubt that
00:29:34.780 you did it, you say, oh, that's old news. That's old news. Why are you still talking about that?
00:29:39.200 Because you've been lying about it for six years. Oh no, come on, move on. We're still talking about
00:29:44.080 this? We're still talking about 2016? Well, no, first of all, you've been the one talking about
00:29:50.940 2016 because you haven't accepted the results of that election yet. But two, you've never been held
00:29:56.340 accountable for your crimes. And it wasn't even just some rogue lawyer or some rogue campaign
00:30:01.140 staffer. We have evidence that Hillary herself approved it because the campaign manager, Robbie
00:30:06.360 Mook, testified that she approved it. Yeah, oh, come on, move on. It's old news. It's old news.
00:30:12.080 And there's two sets of rules. There's one set of rules for the Clintons and there's one set of rules
00:30:16.120 for the rest of us. If you, for instance, if you show up to the Capitol on the day that they're
00:30:25.440 certifying the election and you put on a horn hat and you go into the Capitol with doors in some cases
00:30:31.120 held open for you by the Capitol police, and you go in and you kind of dance around the Capitol rotunda,
00:30:36.100 if you are, say, a Midwestern dad and you go in there and you take some pictures cracking a Coors
00:30:40.660 light in the Capitol rotunda, you will be thrown into solitary confinement. You will be called an
00:30:48.460 insurrectionist, a terrorist, a threat to our government, the stability of the United States
00:30:54.600 itself. You will have the book thrown at you. You will have more than the book thrown at you.
00:30:58.880 You will have crimes insinuated against you that you didn't commit, that no one's even formally
00:31:04.040 alleging that you committed. If you, if you do that, if you crack the beer and the horn hat in the
00:31:10.200 Capitol, if you lie to the FBI so that they can rig a presidential election so that they can undermine
00:31:16.680 an entire presidency, oh, well, never mind. Nothing to see here. Move along, move along.
00:31:22.620 And we hear about our democracy, our democracy, our sacred trust in our sacred institutions of our
00:31:28.920 sacred democracy. What democracy? What trust? What institutions? It's two sets of rules.
00:31:34.180 Not, not just in the justice system. In all of it, in the schools, different sets of rules. If you,
00:31:42.200 if your skin's a different color, you have different set of rules. If you have disordered
00:31:47.440 sexual desires, different set of rules. It's a caste system is what that is. Whatever it is,
00:31:53.500 it's not justice. Speaking of injustice and weird sexual issues, there is a really,
00:31:59.220 really wild story. Just came out. It's in, it's in the Daily Wire. This is out of the UK.
00:32:06.200 A British man with a genetic syndrome that causes low IQ and learning disabilities has reportedly
00:32:13.980 fathered 15 children with women to whom he had not disclosed his condition. So he, you know, he didn't,
00:32:22.240 he didn't do the deed. He didn't, he obviously, these women have never met this man. These women went to
00:32:28.000 a sperm donor bank and they went to the sperm bank and they decided that they were going to create a
00:32:34.540 child and intentionally deprive that child of his natural father. And frequently this is because
00:32:40.020 the women are lesbians. So, you know, biology is not working for them to make a baby. So they go and
00:32:45.740 they just buy a father out of a catalog and they know that the child is going to be deprived of his
00:32:50.080 father and never get to meet his father most likely. But that's okay because they really want a baby
00:32:54.560 for them. It's kind of like they'd go get a poodle from a breeder. They want a baby and so it's all
00:32:58.960 about them. And so if the, if the child is going to be created to be denied his natural father,
00:33:02.520 well, that's too bad. The women want it. Or single women sometimes do this. Again, who cares about the
00:33:08.780 dad? Who cares about the kid? The women want it. But now the women are really upset because the babies
00:33:14.240 aren't coming out perfectly like they wanted. The babies have, can you imagine this? The babies have a
00:33:20.820 learning disability. The babies have a low IQ. Oh, that's awful. Take him back. I want to return
00:33:26.640 him to the baby store. No, no. When I got my designer baby, when I ordered my baby through the
00:33:31.360 catalog, I was, if not promised, it was, it was heavily implied that I would get a perfect baby.
00:33:37.540 And now my baby's not perfect. Take him back. Oh gosh, what a victim I am here that when I tried to
00:33:44.340 create a baby for my own selfish desires, he didn't come out as perfectly as I wanted.
00:33:50.820 Oh, what a tangled web we weave when we selfishly conceive. This just goes to show you, it's not,
00:34:01.020 I don't really blame this guy. I mean, I guess he should have been forthright on his
00:34:04.380 applications about whatever medical conditions he has, but I don't really blame him.
00:34:09.820 I blame the women who put their, look, they have a natural desire to have kids. I get it. And they're
00:34:15.160 not willing to do the things that are required to have kids. Namely, get married to a man
00:34:19.900 and have a stable, loving household. They're not willing to do that because their sexual desires
00:34:24.640 are different. They don't like men that much. And so they want to have their cake and eat it too.
00:34:27.700 They want to pursue their own sexual desires that naturally preclude children, but they also want
00:34:33.300 the babies. And so if the baby has to suffer and if the baby's interests have to be put in second
00:34:37.080 place, well, that's too bad. So I blame the women and I blame the system. I blame society.
00:34:42.980 I sound like a leftist. It's society's fault, but I do blame society. I blame the political
00:34:47.380 community that permits this. This is wrong. This is really wrong for children. And it's really wrong
00:34:53.220 for all the rest of us. And it's so cruel too. It's so cruel in just the everyday practice of it
00:35:00.220 to say, oh, oh, yucky. You've got a lower IQ that I wanted. Oh gosh. All right. I'll deal with him.
00:35:06.120 I guess if I can't return the baby, that's a really awful thing to say.
00:35:08.840 And it's a, it's a soft eugenics that's being practiced here. When people look through these
00:35:14.100 catalogs, what they're looking for is, okay, is he tall? Is he tall, dark and handsome?
00:35:19.780 Ooh, did he go to Harvard? That's good. Oh, look, he was on the football team. I bet he's nice and
00:35:23.500 okay. Yeah, I want him. No one ever wants the scrawny guy with the low IQ. They usually don't pick
00:35:27.720 him out of the catalog. That's why the guy lied about it on his forum. So it's there, you're practicing
00:35:32.380 a soft eugenics, which, which in a way everyone does when they go to the bar and they pick
00:35:38.800 out their men and say, you look pretty cute. Okay. But at least in that case, you are giving
00:35:42.580 of yourself entirely in love to the other person. And the product of your love is a baby. And you've,
00:35:48.820 you give that baby the best life that the baby can possibly have. And you don't put the baby at an
00:35:53.000 automatic disadvantage when you raise him in a fatherless home or, or a motherless home for that
00:35:58.500 matter. You, you do that for your love, but now we've reversed that. And it's, it goes right.
00:36:04.500 It goes right back to Will Thomas at the top of the show. Yeah. Well, maybe it's not right,
00:36:09.660 but I want it now. I'm happy. Me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me. And anyone else? Well,
00:36:14.020 their, their interests and their desires be damned. I'm going to do what I want to do.
00:36:19.340 This is not, not good. This actually, I know we've moved on from the current thing. You know,
00:36:24.880 the current thing changes. It was COVID. Then it was the war in Ukraine. Then it was last week,
00:36:30.300 briefly. The current thing was great replacement theory. Remember that? That was the current thing
00:36:34.240 for like 18 hours or something. Then everyone moved on from that as well. But that was the big
00:36:38.100 boogeyman from the left for, for about 18 hours. If you look into what is meant by the great
00:36:44.460 replacement theory, the libs are saying it's just a white supremacist, awful conspiracy theory.
00:36:51.080 The guy who, who coined the term, he's a Frenchman by the name of Renault Camus. I mentioned him when
00:36:58.520 this came up. Uh, surely none of the people who are committing acts of violence have ever read
00:37:03.760 this guy, Renault Camus. But his point is, it's not really primarily about race. It's not even
00:37:08.840 really primarily about migration. The issue of, of replacement comes to this ideology of replacism,
00:37:15.560 where we believe that in, in our modern society, anything can be replaced by any other thing.
00:37:23.380 So in migration, any people can be replaced by any other people and it won't change the product.
00:37:28.240 You can take Italy and take out all the Italians and replace them with Germans and you'd still
00:37:34.040 have Italy. Now we all know, of course you wouldn't have Italy. You just have Germany,
00:37:37.100 but, but that's part of the ideology. You can take, I don't know, uh, you can take any
00:37:44.060 piece of woodworking and replace it with plastic and you get the same thing. We've increasingly done
00:37:49.140 that in our society. And notably, you're going to hear a lot about this this month. You can take
00:37:53.880 women and replace them with men or men and replace them with women and nothing's going to change.
00:38:00.420 But, but we know it does change because we know that men and women really are different. And this
00:38:04.480 has been a problem that has been festering for at least 50 years now, at least since the feminism
00:38:09.960 of the 1970s, which said a woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle, which said that men and women
00:38:14.640 are exactly the same. And the only differences are superficial in that kind of ideology. According to
00:38:21.060 that ideology, you have to redefine marriage because if we're, if feminism is defining man
00:38:27.880 equals woman, man and women are exact, men and women are exactly the same. M equals W. Why then
00:38:34.420 M plus W must therefore equal M plus M must therefore equal W plus W because M equals W. So of course
00:38:44.180 that's the same. And in a world in which you continue to follow that logic where men and women are exactly
00:38:48.520 the same. Of course, Will Thomas needs to swim on the girls team because men and women are the same.
00:38:53.460 There's no difference. You just replace the girls with the boys and nothing changes. But I think
00:38:58.320 something does change, doesn't it? Because we look at it, we watch it, we see that interview. We say,
00:39:03.280 ah, actually there's something about particular cultures, particular places, particular sexes,
00:39:11.260 particular biology, particular human nature, that is real, that you can't, you can't just
00:39:17.060 ideologize away, rationalize away. Now, speaking of replacement, speaking of wokeness in schools,
00:39:25.960 up in America's hat, up in Canada, things have been going really kooky lately.
00:39:30.480 At George Brown College in Ontario, when you log on to go to a Zoom meeting for this college,
00:39:38.300 to take an online class, which are increasingly popular, you have to sign an acknowledgement.
00:39:44.260 And you know, we have done this for years. You sign a privacy acknowledgement when you go use a
00:39:48.440 social media site. They say, hey, you, we've got a 50,000 word essay here where we basically say we're
00:39:53.440 going to take all your privacy away. Scroll to the bottom and agree. I agree. We always agree.
00:39:58.880 Okay, if you use this service, if you submit a document this way, you're going to acknowledge and
00:40:04.980 agree to these things. Okay, boom, boom, scroll down, agree. Well, this new agreement that you have
00:40:10.580 to use is a little more ideological. It's a little more woke. Before you log on, you have to acknowledge
00:40:18.800 this sacred land on which George Brown College operates. They say, it has been a site of human
00:40:25.720 activity since time immemorial. This land is the territory of the Huron, Wendat,
00:40:30.760 Mississaugas, Anishinaabe, and the Haudenosaunee, not saucy. The territory is the subject of the
00:40:40.200 dish with one spoon wampum belt covenant. That sounds like something made up in a Liz Warren
00:40:45.340 cookbook, but that's real. You have to acknowledge that. An agreement between the Haudenosaunee
00:40:50.000 Confederacy and the Confederacy of the Anishinaabeck and allied nations to peaceably care for and share
00:40:55.780 the resources around the Great Lakes. We acknowledge all treaty peoples, including those who came here as
00:41:00.120 settlers, as migrants, either in this generation or in generations past. And those of us who came
00:41:04.560 here involuntarily, particularly the Africans, as settlers of the displanted, we benefit from the
00:41:09.700 colonization and genocide of the indigenous peoples. It goes on and on and on. We acknowledge we're
00:41:15.280 terrible. We're terrible people in Canada. And we got to give the land back to the Washahashahushi,
00:41:20.500 who we're not even going to acknowledge took it from the Hanlamanaanabe. But forget about that.
00:41:25.220 It was fine when they conquered each other. It's terrible when our guys conquered them. And we
00:41:28.560 acknowledge this. And you have to agree. What if I don't agree with that? I don't agree with that.
00:41:35.060 I don't think it's a terrible thing that the Christian West came in and conquered the New
00:41:39.780 World. I think that's a good thing. I think it was good for the people, generally. It was bad for
00:41:44.780 some of the people, but broadly speaking, it was good. And I think it's good for the world that
00:41:49.160 America now exists. And I just think it's a good thing. That's fine. I think it's much better when the
00:41:54.600 English conquered the New World than, say, when the Comanche conquered the Apache, right? I think
00:41:59.260 that's good. But I have to agree to this in order to take the class. Now, they have a little disclaimer
00:42:06.120 at the bottom. They say, by selecting I agree, you are indicating your acknowledgement of this
00:42:09.300 statement. Our intent is not to impose agreeance, but to inform through acknowledgement. So you're
00:42:14.960 saying, we're not making you agree. You just have to click a button that says agree. But don't worry.
00:42:18.120 It doesn't mean that you have to agree. But do you agree? Agree. Agree. And in a world in which
00:42:24.000 things are increasingly online, in a world in which we're accessing education online, where we're
00:42:28.920 accessing community online, where we're exercising our political rights online, the people who control
00:42:33.600 those online platforms are going to be able to get you to agree. And if you don't go along with their
00:42:38.260 increasingly radical woke demands, you're just going to be shut out. It's not even just a question of
00:42:44.280 the ideology. It's a question of the power. Who's got the power? Who can make you press
00:42:48.460 that button? And are those the kind of people that you think should be ruling society? I certainly do
00:42:54.660 not. Speaking of land disputes, this happened last week or two weeks ago, but I didn't have a chance
00:43:01.420 to get to it. I do want to get to it. ISIS plotted to assassinate George W. Bush by smuggling assassins
00:43:10.040 across the border. So an ISIS operative who is living in Columbus, Ohio, sought to smuggle
00:43:17.100 terrorists through the U.S.-Mexico border to kill Bush. This according to an unsealed FBI search
00:43:23.860 warrant application. There are lots of questions here. One, apparently the feds were in contact with
00:43:29.300 this guy. So that's good at least. We don't know. Sometimes it seems like the feds are just inciting
00:43:35.840 people to commit attacks like you saw in the plot to kidnap Gretchen Whitmer up in Michigan. But maybe
00:43:42.000 the feds here just actually intercepted this and jumped to the aid of George Bush and arrested this
00:43:48.520 guy. We are seeing third world country kind of stuff here. We are now seeing a border that is so weak,
00:43:57.040 so porous that our own presidents could potentially be assassinated.
00:44:05.600 Globalism is not working out very well. The promise of globalism is there are not going to be
00:44:11.300 any borders. There are not going to, no borders to trade, no borders to politics or citizenship,
00:44:16.760 no borders for anything. We're all just going to kumbaya. We're all going to become one culture.
00:44:21.260 We're just going to give it up. All of our particular aspects of our particular culture,
00:44:24.860 everyone's interchangeable with everything else, and we're all just going to live in one happy world
00:44:28.820 where GDP increases. That's all that matters. It's not working out very well. You're seeing
00:44:34.300 intense political instability as a result of this, up to and including the potential assassination
00:44:38.820 of our own presidents. You would think that the libs would get the message. You would think that that
00:44:48.000 would wake people up. Oh, didn't work out the way we thought it was going to. I'll give you another
00:44:52.260 example. For years, politicians in both parties said, a rising China is good for everybody.
00:44:57.980 Let's support China. Let's let China into the World Trade Organization. Let's encourage trade
00:45:01.620 with China because as China becomes more powerful, that's going to be good for the United States.
00:45:06.900 Some people thought this sounded good in theory. Joe Biden spread this theory,
00:45:10.660 and then it turns out it's not true. Okay, so what happens when you realize it's not true?
00:45:15.060 Do you change your behavior or do you change your beliefs? You remain stuck. You don't do a damn
00:45:26.900 thing if you are these libs. They say, okay, never mind. La, la, la. I'm going to ignore what's going
00:45:30.580 on. I'm going to ignore popular uprisings against our regime here. I'm going to ignore rising
00:45:37.700 nationalist and populist sentiment. As it grows, I'm going to try to suppress them, and I'm going to
00:45:42.420 call them terrorists, and I'm going to let crook lawyers off the hook for rigging elections,
00:45:46.800 and I'm going to do everything I can not to change based on the facts on the ground.
00:45:51.500 It's the same issue you've seen with Will Thomas. I'm not even going to make the argument anymore
00:45:54.860 that a rising China is good for everyone. I'm just going to enforce open borders through sheer
00:45:59.940 tyranny of will. You're seeing the popular reaction against this. Just look at the race in Arizona.
00:46:06.560 We've had Blake Masters on this show. Blake Masters is a Senate candidate in Arizona,
00:46:10.840 and he is running a socially conservative campaign. He's running a campaign where he says
00:46:17.920 Americans should be able to raise their family on a single income. I love that. I think that's
00:46:22.160 great. He ran a campaign ad where he said, I don't think that the 2020 election was fair. I think it
00:46:27.400 was rigged. I don't think Biden really won fair and square. You're not allowed to say that,
00:46:31.440 but he said it. I like that he said it. That guy is surging in Arizona. I believe he's now leading
00:46:37.040 the race. Take note, all you Republican politicians. This is the future, at least in
00:46:44.900 terms of what the people want. That is what the people want. That is not what the ruling class
00:46:51.360 wants. That's not what the people who are writing up the agreements that you have to agree to on tech
00:46:55.760 platforms want. That's not what the self-appointed oligarchs want. That's not what the Davos set wants
00:47:02.000 when they're trying to reset our political and economic order. You got to pick a side.
00:47:08.000 You can either suck up to the elites who want to ignore the will of the people, who are still
00:47:14.820 pushing this outmoded, completely discredited idea of globalism, of the idea that particularity is
00:47:22.380 awful, or you can see which way the wind is blowing. I think Blake Masters is totally right.
00:47:27.440 Speaking of foreign lands and culture, well, I'll wait to get to this tomorrow. I really want to get
00:47:34.100 to this because some lunatic just tried to destroy the Mona Lisa in the name of environmentalism and
00:47:39.540 saving the world. I'll get to it tomorrow because I do have to address something a lot of people have
00:47:43.780 been asking about. I had a great debate with Victoria Hammett, who is a TikTok star. I had a great debate
00:47:50.860 with her over abortion. The conversation lasted over 90 minutes. It was a great exchange. When the video
00:47:59.440 went private, I think it had over 100,000 views. People were enjoying it. I got a call from Victoria.
00:48:06.480 She asked that we take it down for whatever reason. She said that she had concerns about the debate
00:48:14.220 even before we uploaded it. Presumably, she didn't like how it turned out, at least for her side of
00:48:20.880 the debate. Then she also later, she said, I'm just worried people are sending me comments that
00:48:25.800 are really making me feel threatened and scared. I looked through the comments. I saw a couple.
00:48:30.640 I did not share that concern. I don't think that was a big threat. But she called. She asked very
00:48:38.980 nicely. She's a nice gal. She asked if we would take it down. We at the DW decided to be,
00:48:44.220 friendly neighbors and take down that video and to beef up our agreements now when leftists come
00:48:51.020 on the show to debate issues. So we won't do it again. We're going to make that crystal clear. But
00:48:56.600 since this was the first time that we've had anyone ask us, just say, hey, can you please take this
00:49:00.880 down from the channel? We decided to do it. I'm sure it's on the internet somewhere if you really
00:49:04.120 want to watch it. I was grateful to Victoria for coming on this show. Hope she comes back on the show.
00:49:09.060 Hope more libs come back on the show. And I can assure you, we will not be taking down the videos
00:49:13.220 if they ask us to in the future. But this one time, because she asked so nicely,
00:49:17.420 we agreed to do it. There's that. Now you'll have to dig through the internet to find where
00:49:20.620 it's lurking. Because the internet is forever, of course. I'm Michael Knowles. This is the
00:49:23.800 Michael Knowles Show. See you tomorrow.
