The FBI raided Donald Trump's Mar-A-Lago resort, and I tell you why I don't think he'll win in 2024, and why the Deep State is determined to keep him from running for re-election.
00:01:23.760If he were the nominee in 2024, I would happily vote for him a third time.
00:01:28.400I even think most people would vote for him, especially after this terrible administration we've got right now.
00:01:34.960But I said, I would not bet on Trump winning in 2024 because there's just one reason I am not sure that the powers that be will let him win.
00:01:49.320Talking about the FBI, the DOJ, the deep state, the crooks who changed all the election rules last time, the big tech cartel, the whole blob.
00:01:58.060I'm not just talking about Biden or the House Democrats.
00:02:00.500I'm talking about the whole array of established interests.
00:02:05.000I just don't know that they will let Trump win whatever the voters want.
00:02:12.160Okay, when we're talking about the liberal establishment, we're talking about groups that have a lot of power.
00:02:19.200Groups that already use that power to rig the election in 2020.
00:02:22.800I don't see any reason that they wouldn't do it again now that they are even more fully ensconced in power.
00:02:30.500It's just something about Trump, more so than other Republicans.
00:04:37.580Seems whenever I've got that really good spicy stuff, you know, that spicy commentary that kind of cuts past just the left, right, Republican, Democrats that talks about kind of systemic issues.
00:04:49.080Sometimes, sometimes then, I don't know, it just gets blocked.
00:04:53.360When you want to protect yourself from these established powers, when you want to protect your assets, especially if the FBI could illegitimately raid your house.

00:06:30.080Even though I predicted it, even though I said this sort of thing is going to happen because Trump is just different, and they hate Trump in a special way, and you're going to see all sorts of political stops, absolutely no holes barred.
00:06:47.220You already have seen illegal actions by these same groups, by the FBI, by the DOJ.
00:06:50.960Even though I predicted it, it doesn't make it less offensive and less shocking that we're now descended into such banana republic level nonsense that you've got the president sicking the federal government, sicking federal law enforcement on his main political opponent.
00:07:08.940If this happened in Brazil, forget that, if this happened in Syria, if this happened in Iraq, we would say this is illegitimate, this is ridiculous, what a sham democracy they've got in these sorts of places, and now we're seeing it happen in our own country.
00:07:28.820What was this about, according to the New York Times, according to the paper of record of the liberal establishment, the raid was focused on material that Trump had brought with him to Mar-a-Lago, his private club and residence, after he left the White House.
00:07:44.900Those boxes contained many pages of classified documents.
00:07:48.300Oh, he had classified documents in places he shouldn't have had them, like Hillary, like Hillary Clinton, on her server, 30,000 emails with classified material, and she just wiped it clean before federal law enforcement could find it.
00:08:02.460Not that federal law enforcement was ever really going to look.
00:08:55.740They changed all the election rules right before the election, and they made it much more vulnerable to fraud, even by the standard of Barack Obama.
00:09:01.380And, in some cases, they violated the state constitutions in different states.
00:09:12.760The libs even admitted that they rigged the thing.
00:09:14.820There was a whole big magazine article afterward, how we rigged the election such that it was more advantageous for Democrats and disadvantageous to Republicans.
00:09:22.960And then when you say, write back to them what they just told you, they say, you're not allowed to say that.
00:09:32.920Finally, the New York Times says, prosecutors have also reportedly asked about Trump's alleged attempt to pressure Vice President Mike Pence to overturn the results of the election.
00:09:43.160So now, Trump isn't even allowed to say that he wants the vice president to invoke a kind of measure that we saw, not that is frequently invoked in American history, but which is not unprecedented, to object to the certification of certain slates of electors in the election.
00:10:01.420And there was a process that came out of that, which is a process that Senator Cruz and Representative Paul Gosar suggested that we have a kind of presidential election commission afterward to analyze the many irregularities that took place in 2020 when they changed all the rules, in some cases illegally.
00:10:18.660So all that, what, that, now, that's the, now, so what's the basis for the raid?
00:10:23.300It's that, or it's the, the fact that he may have had some documents at his home, like Hillary Clinton did, or the fact that he complained about the election.
00:10:49.940It was just routine DOJ, nothing to do with Biden, nothing to do with stopping Trump from running in 2024, none of that, right?
00:10:57.340I think we can dismiss that out of hand.
00:10:59.020You don't raid the president's home over the stupid Presidential Records Act.
00:11:02.520Second option here, this is an attempt to kill Trump's candidacy in 2024 in the cradle.
00:11:08.140This is an attempt to wield federal law enforcement to stop Trump from running in 2024 because the Democrats think that he would beat them,
00:11:16.060and they just simply will not allow him to be president again.
00:11:19.180And they can't beat him at the ballot box in a fair and square election, so they're going to just raid his home and try to stop him from running in 2024.
00:12:11.320Sometimes people in politics play 4D chess.
00:12:14.240But when you're looking at a situation, especially where there's so many variables where things can spiral out of control, usually the simpler answer is correct.
00:12:25.680In this case, the idea that it was just routine FBI work, I think, is absurd and not backed up by precedent.
00:12:30.720The idea that it was 4D chess and they really secretly want to support Trump, I don't really buy that.
00:12:36.020I think the established, I think that my thesis from the very beginning was correct and I think it's being proven more correct every day.
00:12:43.580The libs simply will not tolerate a Donald Trump second term.
00:12:50.500And they will do everything they can, even if it throws the nation into a kind of banana republic status.
00:12:57.760Even if it violates the law, even if it violates all of our political norms, they will do anything it takes.
00:13:03.740They will use any means necessary to stop Trump 2024.
00:13:10.260Speaking of killing things, do you have a will?
00:13:13.500Right now, go to EpicWill.com, use code Knowles.
00:13:16.380The left's persistent and loud attack on the truth is aimed directly at your children.
00:13:23.200You see it in the public school system.
00:13:24.680You see it in the mainstream kids entertainment.
00:13:28.680Seemingly, all of our nation's cultural institutions have been infiltrated by the left's not-so-secret agenda, as they say, to indoctrinate your kids with anti-religious, anti-American ideologies.
00:13:41.760They prey on the vulnerability and malleability of your kids' brains, and they seek to warp your kids' understanding of themselves and their environment.
00:13:49.780There are a lot of ways you can protect your kids from these not-so-secret agendas.
00:13:53.600You can homeschool, you can get them involved in your church, but one of the easiest and simplest ways to protect your kids is to take five minutes tonight and write a will with EpicWill.
00:14:04.820A will gives you the power to say who will raise your kids should something, God forbid, happen to you and your spouse.
00:14:10.240It can, in certain cases, be the only legal defense standing between your kids and the persistent power grabs from the left.
00:14:30.760Take five minutes tonight, write a will, ensuring that your kids will be raised the way that you would intend in the event that something happens to you.
00:15:05.420Boy, are we going to finally get rid of Trump?
00:15:07.180Specifically, he writes the law in question, section 2071 of title 18 of the U.S. Code makes it a crime if someone who has custody of government documents or records, quote, willfully and unlawfully conceals, removes, mutilates, obliterates, falsifies or destroys them.
00:15:23.380If convicted, defendants can be fined or sentenced to prison for up to three years.
00:15:28.760In addition, the statute says if they're currently in federal office, they shall forfeit that office, and they shall be disqualified from holding any office under the United States.
00:15:39.400Now, Eugene Volokh over at the Volokh Conspiracy has a good article on why, no, even if Trump were prosecuted for this, even if he were convicted for this, that wouldn't bar him from running for president again.
00:15:52.960But the libs are clearly trying to push this idea.
00:15:56.200The Times writes, on its face then, if Mr. Trump were to be charged and convicted of removing, concealing, or destroying government records under that law, he would seem to be ineligible to become president again.
00:16:05.760The only caveat they have here is there was reason for caution, however.
00:16:10.300The law briefly received a close look in 2015 after it came to light that Hillary Clinton, then widely anticipated to be the 2016 Democrat presidential nominee,
00:16:17.580had used a private email server to conduct government business while secretary of state.
00:16:24.220But, you know, we're going to get rid of that idea.
00:16:27.020So you can see the way that the libs are thinking.
00:16:30.780They're thinking, hmm, this is a really good way to get rid of Trump.
00:16:53.520We already argued against this position when they were going to use it against Hillary Clinton.
00:16:59.040When Hillary Clinton did at least the very same thing Trump did, if not much worse, because we're talking about 30,000 emails on an unsecured server that's very easily hackable.
00:17:08.120That almost certainly was hacked by foreign governments.
00:17:13.760Okay, well, let's just float it out there anyway.
00:17:16.520But darn, we probably can't use it because we made the opposite argument last time when Hillary Clinton did the same thing and didn't get raided by the FBI.
00:17:26.140When, in almost the same circumstances, when she was the presumptive Democrat nominee, as Trump is the presumptive Republican nominee this time.
00:17:34.560The only difference is Hillary was never president.
00:17:36.980Hillary had far less of a right to use these sorts of classified materials than the president had because she was only a secretary of state and first lady, former first lady.
00:17:52.900Really banana republic kind of stuff that you're seeing in the New York Times and obviously you're seeing from the FBI.
00:17:56.600And the whole episode is weird, not just because of what happened, not just because I predicted it pretty much as it was happening or just an hour or so before it actually happened.
00:18:08.240Really weird because Trump seems to have predicted it.
00:18:13.920So I got to give a hat tip here to my Twitter friend, Eudaimonia, one of the great pseudonymous Twitter accounts.
00:18:22.180If you're not following him, you should, referring to the ancient Greek idea of happiness and human flourishing.
00:18:27.340He pointed out that the Truth Social Instagram account had made a series of posts going back into July for several weeks now.
00:18:40.820In which the post was just a picture of Trump from the back, clearly with heavy stage lights on him, clearly looking at a crowd, wearing the MAGA hat.
00:18:50.500It says 45 right there on the MAGA hat.
00:18:55.380And just right on his back, it says 8-8-2022.
00:19:01.800So all it is, is Trump talking to a live crowd with the presidential hat on, with the date of the FBI raid.
00:19:10.980It says, join the club to stand up to the tyranny of big tech.
00:20:10.360Richard Nixon got up to some campaign shenanigans that he wasn't even aware of.
00:20:17.080The Democrats have gotten up to much worse campaign shenanigans in pretty much every presidential campaign before Richard Nixon and after Richard Nixon in modern times.
00:22:52.100He's done a great job as governor of Florida.
00:22:54.740So DeSantis is in this impossible position.
00:22:56.600He doesn't want to help out his political rival, but he shares a lot of the same base as Donald Trump.
00:23:01.740And the FBI raid was just so obviously corrupt and illegitimate that he's got to come out against it because he's the tough conservative fighter candidate.
00:23:09.880So he's trying to balance all these competing interests.
00:23:12.960Then, on the other hand, you've got the court jesters.
00:23:15.900You've got the squishes who love this.
00:23:17.740The people who have hated Trump from the beginning, they absolutely love this.
00:23:21.240Even, unfortunately, the court jester group even includes people who have worked for Trump.
00:23:27.900This woman who I had never heard of until it was announced she's going to come onto The View.
00:23:32.860She's going to be the new fake Republican on The View.
00:23:37.320And she worked for Trump, and then she totally squished out and condemned Trump and whined and cried and sucked up to the liberal establishment.
00:23:44.280She came out after this ridiculous raid, this absolute banana republic lawlessness from Biden.
00:23:50.920She tweets out totally what you would expect.
00:23:53.620She says, the inflammatory rhetoric coming from some on the right this evening is frightening.
00:26:36.280Speaking of political rhetoric, heated up rhetoric, the mayor of New York, Eric Adams, is really ratcheting up the rhetoric against the illegal aliens who are showing up in his sanctuary city.
00:28:54.660Oh, oh, unless it is the case that there are two separate tiers here, two separate standards, two separate systems.
00:29:03.580And the Republicans, it's really good when the illegal aliens shows up to the Republican states because that weakens those states and gives Democrats more power.
00:29:14.140And it's really bad when they show up to the Democrat states because actually illegal immigration is a net negative for everybody.
00:29:20.980And the Democrats don't want them to show up to their backyard because then they're going to have to expend resources.
00:29:25.720They're going to see increases in crime.
00:29:27.100They're going to see increases in welfare dependency.
00:29:29.080They're going to see strains on their resources.
00:29:30.800All the stuff that the Republicans had to deal with, which the Democrats celebrated.
00:36:55.380The Democrats win, the Republicans win.
00:36:57.140No matter who wins, the same sorts of problems get worse.
00:37:00.240When you think of, especially on the social issues, the kind of crazy sexual decadence that we're at now, where we're trancing little kids.
00:37:07.500No matter who wins, the Democrats win, the Republicans win.
00:37:10.780And it always just kind of, on immigration.
00:37:13.640The Democrats win, the Republicans win.
00:37:14.860We get more and more and more immigration.
00:38:16.620I think DeSantis is the best governor, certainly right now, maybe of my lifetime.
00:38:20.220And, you know, I'm a huge supporter of Senator Cruz.
00:38:22.420And there are other candidates in the potential GOP field that I like and could support.
00:38:28.880The raid on Mar-a-Lago makes me more inclined to support Trump, even though the raid on Mar-a-Lago tells me he's less likely to win the general.
00:38:38.400Now, paradoxically, it makes me more inclined to support him in a primary because I think, no, no, you guys don't get away with this.
00:39:06.300Now, all I know is we are in uncharted territory right now.
00:39:13.320We're in uncharted territory in a whole lot of ways.
00:39:15.280There's a story out of California from the state Senator Scott Wiener, who is one of the biggest degenerates in American politics.
00:39:22.500I mean, this guy is the poster child of American political degeneracy.
00:39:27.100This guy came to prominence a couple of years ago because he sponsored a bill called SB 145, which was a bill to weaken punishments for pederasts.
00:39:38.600For grown men who have sex with little boys, it would weaken the punishments or it would give judges more discretion to weaken the punishments.
00:39:57.860You'll see PolitiFact, Snopes, all these groups.
00:40:00.420They make all these sorts of fact-check arguments.
00:40:02.260They say, no, actually, the purpose of this bill was to create equality for homosexuals and heterosexuals in the sentencing of statutory rape.
00:40:41.320Just a couple of days ago, Scott Wiener furthered his degenerate profile by describing all of the sex parties that go on among his friends, his constituency, and how that's going to keep happening whether you get monkey pox or not.
00:40:55.020He says, if people want to have sex, they're going to have sex.
00:40:58.740I know people who normally go to sex parties, who will not now, maybe for a little bit, people who will make their own decisions about their own risk levels.
00:41:07.040He was talking about the San Francisco gay fetish festival that just occurred, that occurred even though there's a gay orgy disease called monkey pox going around.
00:41:15.640He said, I know someone who was working the door at one of the sex parties the weekend of this festival, and the attendance was down by 50%.
00:41:21.040And I've heard that about some other sex parties as well.
00:41:24.960So my takeaway here, these parties should not exist.
00:41:30.980These festivals should be shut down, especially when there's a gay orgy box going around.
00:41:33.820But my other takeaway is, what level of depravity has our country sunk to that a sitting state senator can just speak casually about his friends just going to orgies and sex parties?
00:41:48.620I've got a friend who works at the sex parties.
00:41:50.040This is so, this should be so shameful that any man who, like this, who even knows people who goes to these parties would never admit it in public.
00:42:02.400Or any man who does admit this kind of deviancy and degeneracy would never show his face in public.
00:42:07.900This guy should be on the absolute fringes of society.
00:42:12.020He should be able to say these things at the most in little dark alleys next to seedy movie theaters.
00:42:17.560Instead, he's doing it from the halls of the state capitol in California.
00:43:47.360He was a child star, but for all the wrong reasons, he made his debut at just 22 months old.
00:43:51.560Not for a toy store advertisement or even a family-friendly PG film.
00:43:55.100This was for hardcore global pornographic syndication.
00:43:58.260He was filmed being sexually abused by his adoptive parents, quote unquote, and at least eight other pedophiles in Australia, France, Germany, and the United States.
00:44:07.140His horrific introduction to the insidious world of pedophilia dated back to 2005, when his Russian mother sold him for $8,000 to a member of Boy Lovers, a sophisticated global network of men whose sexual preference for boys aged between six and eight years old.
00:44:21.540The boy was adopted, quote unquote, by American Mark J. Newton, who lived in Brisbane, and his Australian boyfriend, Peter Trong.
00:44:30.520Now, what's really crazy about this story is that there had previously been a puff piece about this couple.
00:44:38.660A puff piece about how wonderful it was that they adopted this boy.
00:44:42.460Because back, this is 2013 now, the idea of gay adoption was really pretty much unthinkable at that point.
00:44:47.360And so there was this big puff piece being pushed by the liberal media to say, look, they've overcome so many obstacles, legal and social, to finally have their fulfillment to adopt their child and form this family despite the constraints of nature and society.
00:45:04.700That article is even referenced in this article on their crimes.
00:46:03.740Wants, because men and women are different.
00:46:05.440If you believe that men and women are different, I don't see how you can support homosexual adoption.
00:46:11.760Because men and women have different things to offer.
00:46:15.400And when we're talking about adoption, especially when we're talking about conception, especially when we're talking about an issue like surrogacy or all these other issues that keep coming up.
00:46:23.160All we ever talk about now are the rights of, the right of these men to have a child.
00:46:29.340These men don't have a right to have a child.
00:46:32.860There's a very natural scientific basis for why they can't have a child together.
00:46:37.180And now they're trying to circumvent that nature through this radical social engineering and things don't turn out very well.
00:46:45.960The only people who we ever talk about as having rights in these cases are the couples and the couples and their deep desire to have a child.
00:46:54.760You don't have a right to have a child.
00:46:57.320I know it can be hard for people who, especially people who struggle with infertility.
00:47:01.160Or I'm sure it's very hard for homosexuals too, who have a natural desire to have a child.
00:47:23.640The only person who can be said to have any rights when we're talking about procreation, when we're talking about adoption or anything like that,
00:47:31.040the only person who can be said to have any rights is the child.
00:47:33.780A child has a right to his natural mother and father conceived in the conjugal act between his parents in a marriage.
00:47:43.740Marriage, which is the lifelong bond between a man and a woman for the sake of the generation and education of children.
00:48:52.180When you feel a kind of pain, you're drinking too much, whatever, you've got to change that behavior.
00:48:55.480Unfortunately, in our therapeutic culture and in our culture that establishes the domination of technology to break off all natural constraints, all we tend to do is numb the pain.
