The Michael Knowles Show - Ep. 1110 - John Oliver's Unprovoked Attack Causes Massive Retaliation

00:00:00.000 I'm back. I'm back, baby. As some of you may have noticed, I took a vacation last week. Don't do

00:00:06.160 that very often, but I did it last week. I flew in last night from the United Kingdom after an

00:00:12.120 incredibly busy week in merry old England, toppling their government, that was important,

00:00:17.100 helping to baptize Candace's baby, and hitting every single tourist spot with my wife and two

00:00:22.440 little children. I am a little bit tired, but I promise you, I promise you this right now,

00:00:28.000 I am nowhere near as tired as the president of the United States.

00:00:32.060 I have not made that formal decision, but it's my intention,

00:00:35.480 my intention to run again. And we have time to make that decision.

00:00:41.080 Dr. Biden is for it. Mr. President. Oh. Dr. Biden thinks that, my wife thinks that

00:00:50.440 we're doing something very important. The media have been metaphorically propping up Biden for

00:01:02.640 years. They are now literally propping him up as he appears almost to doze off on camera.

00:01:09.280 You are seeing this desperate propping reflected right now in the polls. As the midterms approach,

00:01:14.520 now just over two weeks away, the polls are all breaking for Republicans. Now, in years past,

00:01:21.040 Republicans could already reasonably start chilling the champagne for the victory parties.

00:01:25.800 But many conservatives still feel a nagging worry that no matter how good we're looking in the polls,

00:01:33.160 somehow the votes on election day, or whenever they finish counting the ballots this year,

00:01:38.380 are miraculously going to just turn at the end in favor of the Democrats.

00:01:42.260 A lot of conservatives have the nagging worry that if the powers that be can continue so brazenly

00:01:49.240 to prop up our cadaver in chief, then our entire electoral system as we know it

00:01:54.140 might be on the brink of death too. I'm Michael Knowles. This is The Michael Knowles Show.

00:02:06.400 Welcome back to the show. My favorite comment yesterday is from Michael.

00:02:12.260 Michael Storman, who says, calling the January 6th committee a kangaroo court is an insult to kangaroos.

00:02:19.240 Absolutely true. And the kangaroo court and the constant vilification of half the country is

00:02:25.020 semi-fascist and illegitimate and all the rest of it. That is why conservatives in particular don't

00:02:31.020 have a ton of faith in the electoral system right now. Because we're consistently told that our views

00:02:35.880 are not legitimate. They have no role in our sacred democracy. To save our democracy,

00:02:40.400 got to get rid of half of the country. And then we saw all the shenanigans in 2020. And so we look,

00:02:45.300 we say, yeah, we're doing great in the polls right now. But will that matter on election day? Or is our

00:02:50.700 republic dead? Is it dead like all of us will be one day? Which is why you need to check out Epic Will.

00:04:03.940 The polls are looking great. What a great way to come back into the United States.

00:04:08.440 I look at the poll in Pennsylvania right now. Dr. Oz is leading John Fetterman by four and a half

00:04:14.240 points. And I have made no bones about my views on Dr. Oz. I think he is an extremely weak candidate.

00:04:20.360 I think he's a big squish. I think ultimately, if I'm going to the ballot on November 8th, I guess I 1.00

00:04:29.340 vote for Oz because he does have this one lucky break in that the man he's running against is

00:04:35.400 absolutely dreadful. He's fanatically in favor of the most radical policies in the country. He said,

00:04:41.380 John Fetterman said, if he had a magic wand, the first thing that he would do wouldn't be to cure

00:04:45.540 childhood illness or solve world hunger. No, it would be to let murderers out of prison.

00:04:51.040 So he's just so awful. Oz seems kind of like a Romney type, which is awful. But I guess there's

00:04:57.800 a better chance he caucuses with the Republicans than John Fetterman would. So if I'm looking at it

00:05:04.220 today, and I guess this is what a lot of Pennsylvania moderates and some conservatives are

00:05:09.160 thinking too. They're saying, well, I got to vote for Oz. The other option is just so bad.

00:05:13.500 Oz is at least a somewhat reasonable guy. According to a poll of a little over 1,000 voters by the

00:05:19.860 market research firm WIC, Oz is leading Fetterman by four and a half points. That is outside the

00:05:26.040 margin of error. So that's good. Other polls have the race basically in a dead heat. But when you

00:05:31.300 think about all of the attacks on the Republicans and you think about all of the media propping up

00:05:36.240 John Fetterman, this is really good news. Really good news. Except for this.

00:05:43.500 The Pennsylvanians have been voting since early September. The Pennsylvanians have been voting

00:05:51.560 for almost two months. Great. It's breaking at the end. We're now looking forward to a debate

00:05:57.560 finally between Dr. Oz and John Fetterman. Fetterman had been running away from a debate

00:06:01.360 because he actually can barely form a coherent English sentence right now, both because he has

00:06:06.340 health problems and because he's not the brightest bulb in the pack and never has been. So he's just

00:06:11.160 been running away. He doesn't want to do any of the debates. Finally, he agrees to do one.

00:06:15.360 But who cares? What does it matter? If election day is no longer election day, if it's now election,

00:06:21.420 not election week, not even election month, it's what is it? Election two months now or more.

00:06:27.160 If the debates happen a week or two before the election, it doesn't matter at all. If the polls

00:06:34.860 start to break for Dr. Oz a week or two before the election, it doesn't matter at all. How many

00:06:39.200 votes have already been cast? That's the question that you've got to answer right now. You're seeing

00:06:43.980 the same issue in Ohio. Great news. J.D. Vance is up over Tim Ryan in Ohio. And J.D. Vance,

00:06:51.400 the Republican candidate, is up over Tim Ryan, the Democrat, specifically because of the debates.

00:06:56.700 Because J.D. Vance destroyed Tim Ryan with facts and logic, like any good YouTube conservative,

00:07:02.180 and crushed him in the debates. And so you're seeing that reflected in the polls.

00:07:06.220 There's a poll now that has Vance up by 4.1% over Ryan. That's a signal poll that is, again,

00:07:12.740 beyond the poll's margin of error, which is 2.58%. This poll was conducted October 14th through the

00:07:18.860 18th of 1,500 likely voters. So it's a very important poll. These numbers should really,

00:07:22.960 really matter. Except Ohio also has early voting. And both of these states have mass vote by mail.

00:07:30.180 So vote by mail makes fraud much easier to commit, and it makes it much more likely to happen.

00:07:37.360 And then even if the people who are receiving the ballots by mail just completely follow the rules,

00:07:42.480 and there's no shenanigans, and there's no ballot harvesters, and there's no corpses voting

00:07:45.800 in the election, it doesn't matter. If they cast their votes before the debates take place,

00:07:51.720 before the polls break for J.D. Vance, it's just not going to matter. So it's just,

00:07:55.080 you're still seeing this year, in real time, the way that the Democrats rig the election.

00:08:01.860 Don't let them tell you that there's no rigging, that this is the most wonderful,

00:08:06.320 protected, serious, dignified election in all of human history. And if you question it,

00:08:12.580 you're a terrible insurrectionist fascist. Don't let them tell you that. They are rigging it. You

00:08:16.340 are watching it being rigged in real time. So how could John Fetterman win in Pennsylvania?

00:08:20.920 How could Tim Ryan win in Ohio? Very easily. They don't even need to mess with the voting machines

00:08:25.660 or cheat about the count in the days and weeks that for whatever reason it now takes us to count

00:08:29.600 ballots. They can just change the way that you vote in the first place. And in some cases,

00:08:35.200 it's going to be contrary to the state constitution, like the mail-in ballots in Pennsylvania. But in some

00:08:39.960 cases, it will be perfectly legal, and it will just give Democrats an advantage. But you can see

00:08:45.100 the momentum right now for the Republicans among the actual people is tremendous. You see it in New

00:08:51.860 York. Right now, the Republican gubernatorial candidate in New York is leading the Democrat

00:08:57.900 governor in true blue New York. A poll of 1,056 likely voters, this is conducted by Coefficient,

00:09:04.480 October 18th to 19th, shows Lee Zeldin, the Republican, not just in a dead heat or closing the

00:09:10.640 space or he's within striking distance. He's leading Kathy Hochul, the Democrat governor in

00:09:15.500 New York. Now, it's a small margin, but he's leading her 45.6% to 45.3%. And you've got another

00:09:27.360 9.1% of voters who are undecided. So yeah, it's within the margin of error, but he's actually got

00:09:32.560 the slight edge here, even though it's in a dead heat. And then you've got another 9% plus of voters

00:09:37.000 who are undecided. How are the undecideds breaking right now? Poll after poll will show

00:09:41.140 that the undecideds are breaking for the Republicans. This is really great news, right?

00:09:45.540 How is Zeldin doing that? Zeldin is doing that. He's winning among white voters, 48 to 44. He's

00:09:51.160 winning Hispanic voters by a pretty significant margin. He's winning, so those Hispanic voters,

00:09:56.580 goodness gracious, it's 18% is the margin that he's winning by. He's winning in the other races too.

00:10:02.020 And this is crucial. Zeldin is not winning the black vote. The black vote is very firmly 0.88

00:10:08.740 in the Democrat camp, but he's pulling 18%, 18% of the black vote. Republicans traditionally get

00:10:16.740 anywhere from, I don't know, maybe 12% down to 8% of the black vote. So you don't, when people talk

00:10:23.680 about Blexit, for instance, or when they talk about pulling black voters away from the Democrats who

00:10:29.480 have been mistreating them for so long, you don't need to get 55% of the black vote. You don't need 1.00

00:10:35.320 to get 35% of the black vote. You just need to get like 15% of the black vote. And the Democrats are

00:10:40.060 toast. So this is great, great news. And it's good news for Zeldin too, because the Democrats

00:10:44.600 cannot with any plausibility use their favorite attack, which is to call Republicans racist and

00:10:51.240 terrible and say that anytime they win an election, it's because of white supremacy. You see here,

00:10:55.560 the deciding factor in these races is not race and it's not sex and it's not any of the,

00:11:06.580 it's not religion even exactly. Do you know what it is? It's class. The Republicans are very firmly

00:11:17.320 the party of the working class and the middle class. True. The Democrats are the party of weird

00:11:26.680 elite people who believe in transing the kids and who watch all those stupid TV shows that no one

00:11:35.080 else really watches and go to see the big Hollywood movies that nobody actually goes to see anymore.

00:11:39.220 The Democrats have become the party of an elite sort of cultural bubble that is exerting less and less

00:11:49.000 influence on the broader culture. Previously, the big institutions, Hollywood, Harvard and Yale,

00:11:55.960 all of the prestigious elite institutions in the country used to exert a ton of influence over the

00:12:00.800 common sense and the popular culture. That is not really the case anymore. And so you're seeing

00:12:04.960 time after time, the Republicans who used to be portrayed as rich uncle penny bags,

00:12:08.900 you know, they're the party of the monopoly man or something. The Democrats are the party of the

00:12:11.940 working class. That's completely over. Okay. And the only Republicans who are not getting it are 0.71

00:12:18.000 the Republicans who still think we're running in 2003 or 2004 or something. But the political

00:12:22.140 landscape has completely shifted very much to the benefit of the GOP. This is good. We got to win

00:12:28.480 back the culture. That's why we got to do it at the ballot box. We got to do it on our screens and we

00:12:33.440 got to do it in our coffee cup. That's why you got to check out black rifle coffee. Right now,

00:14:14.000 now is nowhere clearer than in the UK. I just got to spend the last week in the UK because I was over

00:14:20.260 there for the baptism of Candace, Candace Owens and her husband George's daughter. I assume they picked

00:14:27.380 me not only because I'm Catholic for this baptism, but probably even more so because I'm Italian and

00:14:34.360 a godfather really should be Italian and have a nice little bow tie and kind of jut his chin out 0.85

00:14:40.380 underneath and grant favors to his various associates on the day of his daughter's wedding.

00:14:46.480 So it was a real pleasure to be over there. And the fights that we see here, the culture war fights

00:14:52.460 in the US are really, really clear over there. And that class divide is really, really clear over

00:14:57.500 there. One of the big fights that is back again now is the fight over the Brexit. Britain was part

00:15:03.840 of the EU and then Britain wanted to leave the EU. And there was a huge divide in Britain over this.

00:15:08.900 And here was the divide. Regular, normal, working class and middle class people wanted to leave the

00:15:14.100 EU because it was a complete disaster and it was destroying the British culture.

00:15:17.460 But the sort of wealthy, cosmopolitan, fancy laptop set that feels no allegiance to nation or church

00:15:26.200 or family or anything like that, they wanted to stay in the EU. And their arguments were pretty much

00:15:30.320 just economic. They said, well, we'll have more money if we're in the EU, possibly. And they were

00:15:35.560 for the open borders and it was for all the kind of leftist utopian nonsense that the libs are pushing

00:15:39.960 here in the US and all around the world. And it was the normal people who said, no, I don't want to

00:15:44.880 just completely destroy my culture and open up all of my borders and lose all of my traditions 0.98

00:15:48.560 and break down my whole way of life. I don't want to do that. I like my way of life. I want to

00:15:52.860 conserve something. I saw this. I had the great privilege of meeting a ton of listeners to the

00:15:59.400 show in the UK. I didn't realize we had that kind of an international audience, but I had a nice

00:16:05.220 opportunity for people to come up on the street and I would chat with everybody. And I'll tell you,

00:16:10.180 it was not the provost of the very fancy social club who came up to me on the street. Okay. It

00:16:17.440 wasn't the very elite, wonderful, tweedy people walking up to me on the street as a general rule.

00:16:23.620 It was working class and middle class people. There's a lot of people in the service industry.

00:16:29.020 It was a lot of just like normal guys. And that is going to be the political divide here in the UK

00:16:36.520 and in the US because you've, you've now got a left in this country, a left that is part of the

00:16:42.440 ruling class that is defined by the most insane political positions. And the most, the clearest

00:16:50.060 of all in its insanity is this desire to transgender little kids. And so it doesn't take a PhD in 1.00

00:16:57.120 political philosophy for someone to look at that and say, man, that is completely nuts. I don't want

00:17:01.820 that. It doesn't take a PhD in political philosophy to say, hey, how about you don't flood my country

00:17:06.260 with millions of foreign nationals who have absolutely no connection to our traditional 1.00

00:17:11.140 culture whatsoever? It doesn't take a PhD in political philosophy to say, hey, maybe we

00:17:16.260 shouldn't kill all the kids, kill all the little babies. And, and actually the old people too now, 0.75

00:17:20.520 because they're pushing for quote unquote euthanasia, assisted suicide. It doesn't, it doesn't

00:17:25.720 take a PhD in political philosophy to say, hey, should we really be hurtling toward world war three

00:17:31.240 over a territorial dispute in Ukraine that all of the elite institutions seem to be really,

00:17:36.320 really focused on, but ordinary people, we kind of just want to heat our homes. And actually that's

00:17:40.560 a related problem. This energy crisis that's being caused by this ever greater escalation of a war in

00:17:45.580 Ukraine. It doesn't take really, really fancy people at fancy institutions to know that ordinary

00:17:51.120 people on the street, working normal jobs, having normal families, having normal lives. They are much,

00:17:55.940 much more sophisticated on these questions than our so-called elite. I think this played a huge

00:18:02.400 role in why the UK government fell last week. So I'm not saying I had it, I had anything to do with

00:18:06.880 it necessarily. All right. But here's what I'm saying. I land in the UK immediately. The prime

00:18:11.100 minister resigns. She knew there was a new boss in town, put my little bow tie on, do my Churchill 0.99

00:18:17.700 impression, walking over to 10 Downing. Liz Truss, who had just been elected, I, she probably hadn't even 0.89

00:18:24.560 finished moving in to 10 Downing Street yet. She resigned after just 45 days in office. That is

00:18:30.900 just slightly over four scaramuchis. Okay. That is a very, very short period of time. Now she was a

00:18:38.100 Tory, but she still is a Tory. She's not dead. You know, she, she is nominally a conservative, but the

00:18:43.440 problem is the British Tories, the British conservatives are not actually conservative.

00:18:48.440 They don't conserve anything. This isn't to be some cheap shot at the Tories and saying they should

00:18:53.960 move a little further, right? They don't, they actually don't believe in conserving basically

00:18:58.560 anything, the vast majority of them. And Liz Truss in particular came in as a kind of weak establishment 1.00

00:19:05.020 pick that wasn't interested in actually conserving any part of the traditional culture. So you have to

00:19:10.940 ask yourself, just looking internationally right now, why is this, why was this government different?

00:19:17.980 All the momentum is on the right. All the momentum is for the conservatives right now.

00:19:23.580 Starting really with Donald Trump, that really is what escalated it. This very popular, very old

00:19:31.320 school kind of conservative, not, you know, the egghead-y, technocrat-y kind of right wing that

00:19:35.900 we saw for the last 20 years, but a real old school kind of, no, we're going to conserve our country,

00:19:39.940 you know, God, family, country, borders, make America great again, that kind of stuff.

00:19:44.500 You get it with Trump, you get it in Italy with Georgia Maloney, you get it in Ukraine with

00:19:49.120 Viktor Orban, you just had elections in Sweden that went much more right wing. You're seeing this

00:19:53.040 bubble, bubble up throughout the West. So why is it that the UK, when they elect a conservative

00:19:57.560 government, it falls within 45 days? Because the kind of conservative that got elected in the UK

00:20:05.160 is the same squishy, weak, losing kind of conservative, just maybe cut my taxes a little bit,

00:20:11.980 but actually, we'll probably just end up raising taxes a little later on. That kind of, you know,

00:20:15.600 just let me keep my money, but we're not going to affect any kind of culture or social change.

00:20:21.200 That kind of conservative doesn't play anymore. I don't think that kind of conservative ever really

00:20:26.480 played. Okay, that's the kind of conservative that the libs always wanted us to be. The libs,

00:20:33.480 they like the Romney kind of conservative. The libs, they like the kind of moderate,

00:20:38.220 center-right kind of conservative. The libs even like the kind of caricature of libertarians.

00:20:44.240 This is why when conservatives are portrayed in left-wing media, and I mean the entertainment

00:20:48.400 media here, they're always this kind of libertarian type who never takes a strong stand really on the

00:20:54.000 social issues. And I'm thinking of Ron Swanson on Parks and Rec. You know, just kind of, let me do

00:20:59.560 whatever I want, you do whatever you want, and that's all we're going to do. And we're not going to,

00:21:03.600 you know, I'm not going to push my views on you, and you're not going to push your views on me.

00:21:08.080 We're just going to, I don't know, we're all going to cut taxes, and we're all going to have a little

00:21:10.860 bit more money, but we're not going to say anything about the culture or the country or conserving

00:21:14.100 anything. That's the kind of conservative that the liberals want, because that kind of conservative

00:21:21.080 doesn't pose any real challenge. Mitt Romney, they fought against him, they beat him in the

00:21:27.100 election in 2012, but Mitt Romney never threatened the left's agenda, ever. Donald Trump did.

00:21:35.120 That's why they're, that's why they're still trying to arrest the guy, okay? That's why they're doing

00:21:38.640 everything they can. In 2020, they did everything they could to prevent people from electing him

00:21:43.820 again. And in 2024, they're doing everything they can to keep him off of the ballot. The kind of

00:21:49.280 conservative the left fears is the Trump kind, the Georgia Maloney kind, the Viktor Orban kind.

00:21:54.820 Look at the UK, the Nigel Farage kind, the Brexit kind, the sort of, no, we're not going to accept

00:22:00.140 your stupid status quo, albeit with slightly lower taxes. No, we're going to upend the status quo,

00:22:05.360 and we're going to upend this absolutely desiccated, decadent status quo of the liberal

00:22:12.060 establishment to return to what made our countries great. And it's basic stuff. It's at least simple

00:22:18.840 enough to understand it. It's God, it's family, it's your traditions, it's your culture, it's your

00:22:25.340 community. That's what it is, okay? And so Liz Truss didn't get it, and so she's the lone conservative 0.84

00:22:31.440 who gets booted out on the Western stage. Okay, I hope that the Brits have enough sense to run a real 0.51

00:22:37.420 conservative for that position next time. They probably won't, though. The Libs want us to present

00:22:41.920 ourselves as that just kind of disconnected party of cutting taxes and eggheads looking at spreadsheets.

00:22:48.360 That's what Joe Biden is still talking about that. Joe Biden is still talking about politics as though

00:22:52.800 it's 20 years ago, which is no surprise. He probably thinks it is 20 years ago. He's still

00:22:56.760 referring to Republicans as the party of the monopoly man.

00:23:00.820 You're not going to stop there. They're going to do big farmers bidding to repeal my plan to allow

00:23:05.920 Medicare to negotiate prescription drugs prices. We pay the highest in the world. And in doing so,

00:23:12.180 it's going to raise drug prices. And they're going to raise big farmers profits. They're doing fine,

00:23:17.160 big farmers. They're not hurting at all. And they're going to raise your health insurance premiums.

00:23:22.880 It's mega, mega trickle down. Mega, mega trickle down. The kind of policies that have failed the country

00:23:31.200 before. And it'll fail it again. And it'll mean more wealth to the very wealthy, higher inflation

00:23:37.940 for the middle class. That's the choice we're facing. That's why I think that we're going to do 0.97

00:23:43.080 just fine. Thank you. Mega, mega trickle down that the Republicans are shilling for big pharma. Are you?

00:23:51.200 Are you making that argument with a straight face? The Democrats who just spent the last three years

00:23:56.860 shutting down our country and taking away all of our rights and our way of life to force us to buy a 0.53

00:24:01.980 product from big pharma. And the Republicans, whenever the Republicans say, hey, actually, I don't

00:24:07.460 really trust Pfizer. I don't actually trust Moderna. Those Republicans, they are deplatformed. They're

00:24:12.760 kicked out of school. They're fired from their jobs. They're prevented from interacting in society.

00:24:17.680 You're telling me that we're the party of big pharma? What planet are you on, Joe Biden?

00:24:24.280 It's exactly the opposite. The mega, mega trickle down, the Republicans are running on tariffs now.

00:24:30.700 Okay, the Republicans are running on waging trade wars with China. Okay, it's the Democrats who are

00:24:35.240 running on just outsource everything. All that matters is ticking up GDP a little bit. It's the

00:24:40.440 Democrats pushing that stuff. Joe Biden's biggest contribution to US politics right now, I mean this

00:24:46.280 sincerely, is because he is ancient, he shows you how times have changed. Because he's ancient and he's

00:24:53.340 not as quick as he used to be. And he's not really familiar with the current state of the

00:24:57.580 political debates. He's using the talking points from 15 years ago, 20 years ago, when Republicans

00:25:02.320 were acting like big losers. When Republicans, even when they won elections, would just lose on

00:25:07.060 everything and failed to conserve even the women's bathroom, failed to conserve the definition of 1.00

00:25:11.160 marriage, failed to conserve our borders, failed to conserve American industry, failed to conserve

00:25:14.860 everything. They were just complete losers. The more they won, the worse it got, it seemed,

00:25:18.560 for conservatism. Isn't that amazing? In so many ways. And then the Republicans reverted back to

00:25:25.940 the older kind of view of things. The conservatism that predated the year 2000 or the late 1990s.

00:25:32.820 Okay, they went back to make America great again. That was the slogan. And Joe Biden hasn't caught up

00:25:39.160 with that. But if you're a regular old voter looking at the situation right now, and Joe Biden is

00:25:44.760 telling you, those Republicans, they're just shilling for big pharma. They're the party of the plutocrats.

00:25:50.240 They're the party of the elite. Do you believe that for one second? No, it's just so offensive

00:25:55.600 because it's so manifestly not true. In reality, in reality, the Republicans, the conservatives broadly

00:26:06.280 in the West are not the party of the monopoly man. We are not the party of mega, mega trickle down,

00:26:13.080 whatever that means. We're not even the party of put the economy first. Obviously, we all want a

00:26:19.720 flourishing economy. We want to grow jobs. We want prosperity. But that is a means to an end.

00:26:25.980 Okay, we don't want to make an idol out of that. We don't want to worship mammon. Things go very bad

00:26:29.720 when you do that. We want a flourishing economy for the purpose of a flourishing society. And in a society

00:26:35.200 where we're castrating poor little kids and pumping them full of cross-sex hormones and killing a ton of 0.98

00:26:39.600 babies and getting rid of all of our borders and outsourcing all of the American industry and do 0.97

00:26:43.700 it, that is not a flourishing society. And even if GDP ticks up a little bit, and I'm not convinced

00:26:48.800 that it will, that is not a justification for it. That would be putting the cart before the horse.

00:26:55.720 In reality, what the conservatives are right now is the party of common sense. The libs,

00:27:01.060 they have all their studies, which are usually nonsense. And they've got all their white lab coats,

00:27:05.400 and they've got all their fancy people, and they've got control over all the prestigious institutions.

00:27:09.580 And they're going to tell us with a totally straight face, oh no, that, you know, that COVID shot,

00:27:13.480 that's 100% effective at stopping the transmission of the virus and at stopping the infection.

00:27:21.540 And oh yeah, actually, little boys, little boys know that they're little girls from the womb,

00:27:25.980 actually, from the time they're in the womb. Even though when they're in the womb, they're not human

00:27:28.800 beings at all. They're just clumps of cells. And those things are obviously completely

00:27:32.180 contradictory. But you've got, listen, we're really smart. We've got studies. You want me

00:27:35.580 to show you my studies? That's the libs, okay? And the conservatives right now are the party that

00:27:40.020 says, yeah, I actually don't think my son is my daughter. Call me crazy. You know, I think maybe

00:27:47.620 we shouldn't have those millions of illegal aliens pouring into our country. I don't, yeah, I know, 1.00

00:27:52.360 look, maybe I don't even have a really reasoned out, eloquent argument. I just think, eh,

00:27:58.500 it's not a good idea. You know, maybe we shouldn't have drag queen story hour in kindergarten. You 0.88

00:28:04.520 know, that's called common sense. And so while I was in the UK, this was, was this coincidence?

00:28:11.940 I'm not sure if this was coincidence. I get attacked by one of the lean, leading limeys 1.00

00:28:16.960 who is now always poking his nose into American politics. That of course would be John Oliver.

00:28:23.280 John Oliver went after me personally on the issue of transing the kids.

00:28:27.260 They have been fueled by a lack of basic knowledge about what gender affirming care

00:28:32.520 actually consists of, summed up by comments like this. If a child walked into a doctor's office and

00:28:38.600 said, doc, I want you to cut my fingers off. The doc would say, you've got some problems, kid. We

00:28:43.980 need to refer you to a psychiatrist. If the same child walks into that doctor's office and says, doc,

00:28:49.200 I want you to cut my uterus out. The doctor would say, that doctor would say, oh, well, you're a 1.00

00:28:54.180 wonderful, brave person. You're so right. We do need to cut your uterus out as soon as possible. 1.00

00:29:00.520 Let's get this young lady over to the operating room. 1.00

00:29:03.900 What are you talking about? Absolutely every bit of that is unrealistic, from the fact that no one

00:29:08.940 in this country has ever been able to have one conversation with a doctor without first

00:29:12.980 discussing insurance, to the notion of a young child using the term doc. Why is the fictional

00:29:19.040 child in this bullsh**t scenario using the same vocabulary as a chaotic rabbit from the 1940s?

00:29:24.700 None of this makes any sense. None of this makes any sense there, isn't it? Ha ha ha. So his answer

00:29:31.280 to my objection to the doctors transing the kids, his objection, or his reaction to that,

00:29:38.640 is to make a joke about how we should have socialist healthcare and to make a joke about

00:29:45.200 Bugs Bunny. And frankly, those are the strongest arguments he had against what I said. Now he went

00:29:53.580 on and tried to muster something resembling a coherent argument. So what's my position? My position is

00:30:00.900 that healthcare institutions, at the encouragement of the culture and the state, by the way, going all

00:30:07.840 the way up to Joe Biden, all the way up to the federal government, are encouraging little kids

00:30:12.920 to undergo gender transition, which involves bodily mutilations. It involves the injection of chemicals, 0.99

00:30:22.400 popping of pills to castrate themselves, often to sterilize themselves, to make them look more like 0.90

00:30:28.640 the opposite sex. That's my argument. I'm saying that's bad. And John Oliver said, that's not really 1.00

00:30:34.220 happening. To hear some tell it, as soon as a child declares themselves trans, there is an immediate, 0.84

00:30:41.000 irreversible surgical decision undertaken. And there just isn't. So let's break down exactly what

00:30:47.260 gender-affirming care consists of. Because in younger children, it can mean nothing more than a

00:30:51.560 social transition, like calling them by a new name, or giving them a new haircut, or clothing,

00:30:55.880 or providing them with psychological or behavioral supports. Because to be very clear,

00:30:59.780 pre-pubescent children are not eligible for medical interventions. Now, at the onset of puberty,

00:31:07.360 an adolescent and their family might consider puberty blockers, hormones that delay puberty.

00:31:12.720 There we go. Oh, wait. Oh, you just kind of, there, he just kind of undermined his whole argument.

00:31:18.320 Because he said, no, this is not happening. This is not happening. My British accent has not improved

00:31:24.040 while I've been in the UK. So I'll just go back to do my, I'll go back to every British accent, 0.97

00:31:28.660 just being Paul McCartney. John Oliver says, you know, this isn't happening, actually. Yeah,

00:31:33.700 this isn't happening. It's not, no, no children are being transed or anything. Okay, no,

00:31:38.940 no pre-pubescent children are going on puberty blockers until they hit puberty. Then they go on

00:31:42.980 the puberty blockers. Yeah. Talk to John and George and Ringo about that. Obviously, children

00:31:51.260 who are not about to hit puberty don't need to go on the puberty blockers in order to block puberty

00:31:58.500 because they're not going through puberty. But little children who are about to begin puberty

00:32:05.640 are being put on these puberty blockers. And it's not just a fringe case. And it's not just one weird

00:32:10.380 story here or there. This is being pushed nationwide and it's being pushed by the federal government.

00:32:14.540 And it's being pushed by the very confused, mentally ill man, Dr. Richard Levine,

00:32:18.580 who thinks that he's a woman and who is pushing his own sexual hangups on poor little kids. And he's

00:32:24.140 encouraging them to take puberty blockers and to take cross-sex hormones and to have gender 0.99

00:32:29.580 mutilation surgeries, all of which fall under the umbrella of gender-affirming care according to these

00:32:34.920 absolute ghouls and these child abusers and these perverts. That is all happening. And John Oliver is

00:32:41.460 making the argument, as the left always does, this isn't happening and it's good that it is.

00:32:45.920 That's why this isn't happening and it's really, really good. We're not rigging the election and

00:32:51.100 it's so good that we rigged the election. If you say we rigged the election, you're an

00:32:54.980 insurrectionist terrorist, here's a 3,000 word Time Magazine article telling you how we rigged the

00:32:59.340 election. We're not transing the kid. Nobody is pushing for abortion on demand without apology and 0.55

00:33:05.860 it's good that we have the right to abortion up until the very moment of birth. Nobody's transing the 1.00

00:33:10.680 kids and kids need this gender-affirming care. Well, this doesn't affect little kids. It only 0.87

00:33:15.540 affects older kids, but we have to put them on puberty blockers. 25-year-olds don't go through

00:33:19.260 puberty, guys. And they claim, the libs claim that these drugs are reversible. They're totally

00:33:25.560 reversible. They're simply not. Go watch Matt's movie. The one thing I missed when I was out of

00:33:30.240 the country that I really wanted to attend, I was supposed to speak at Matt's rally to stop

00:33:34.340 transing the kids. It was a huge success. I was looking at the photos and the videos, a huge,

00:33:40.240 huge success. Why? Because the people are obviously on our side of this issue. The reason I bring up

00:33:45.220 John Oliver is not even to just kind of get into a urinating contest with this limey who's got a 1.00

00:33:54.380 nose for American politics. The reason I bring it up is, if you heard my argument, which is,

00:34:02.460 hey, it's kind of bad that children are allowed to go to doctors and encouraged to go to doctors

00:34:06.320 right now and mutilate their bodies. And then you heard his argument, which is, come on, that's not

00:34:11.220 real. What does he sound like? Boggs, Bonnie, hi. Come on. No, they're just getting gender-affirming 0.99

00:34:14.980 care. And they're being told that they're actually the boys and little girls. And then they're being

00:34:19.460 put on puberty blockers. Come on, man. If you just heard those two arguments, which one do you

00:34:24.200 think is the normal argument? Which guy there do you think is the crazy radical guy? And which guy do

00:34:30.400 you think is the normal common sense guy? I don't mean to toot my own horn, but I think

00:34:34.640 unless you are a radical leftist, even if you don't like me personally, even if you don't care

00:34:40.520 about the transgender issue, you hear those two arguments. The argument that we are making is

00:34:45.300 obviously the common sense normal argument that everyone has believed throughout all of human

00:34:50.560 history until five minutes ago. And the radical crazy fringe argument is the John Oliver argument.

00:34:56.460 And it's not even much of an argument at all. And even, you know, even to John Oliver's point,

00:35:02.840 when he says, and they're not all going on drugs, some of them are just being told that they're

00:35:08.240 actually the opposite sex. As if that doesn't matter, as if the physical world is all that 1.00

00:35:13.140 matters and all that matters is putting chemicals into your body. No, of course not. If a little kid,

00:35:19.540 a little boy is told every day starting in kindergarten that he's actually a little girl,

00:35:25.100 and there is a kind of social currency that goes along with identifying as transgender,

00:35:31.560 and it's being pushed by the president of the United States. Don't you think that's either

00:35:36.100 going to deepen his sexual confusion if he has some already, or it's just going to plant it there

00:35:39.940 in the first place? Don't you think that the social metaphysical aspect of our lives matters

00:35:44.800 too? I think it does. In many ways, I think it matters a lot more than the physical aspect of our

00:35:48.740 lives. Of course, that's child abuse too. And it's so amazing. It's so incredible that the

00:35:54.680 lives on the one hand are so belligerently opposed to so-called homosexual conversion therapy,

00:36:03.540 where a gay guy shows up to a psychiatrist or psychologist and says, hey, doc, I have the 0.89

00:36:09.260 same-sex attraction, and I don't really want to, and I don't want to live a homosexual lifestyle, 1.00

00:36:15.420 but I don't know what to do about it. And then the doctor says, well, here are some tools to kind of

00:36:19.500 try to deal with those desires that you don't want to have. That's the worst thing ever. That

00:36:25.360 has to be banned. The doctors who practice that need to be thrown in prison. That's gay conversion 1.00

00:36:29.480 therapy. That's so awful. But the libs are actively encouraging transgender conversion therapy on the 0.99

00:36:36.640 other side. Two little kids. The kind of conversion therapy that says, little kid goes up and says,

00:36:40.600 you know, doc, I actually think I'm a girl this week. And then this predator doctor says, oh,

00:36:46.160 yeah, you are. You are a girl. Stop. Don't even call yourself Johnny anymore. You're Sally. And all

00:36:51.640 your teachers are going to have to call you Sally. And pretty soon, we're going to get you on those

00:36:55.200 puberty blockers that, by the way, are going to make a ton of money for big pharma. And yeah,

00:36:59.740 then we're going to get you into the gender mutilation surgeries. And oh, yeah, that is both of 0.99

00:37:06.460 those therapies are operating on the idea that talking things out and forming one's psychology and

00:37:14.920 spiritual views on this matter of your metaphysical self of your soul is going to affect your life and

00:37:20.280 your identity. And John Oliver is saying, oh, no, it's not a big deal when it's being done

00:37:25.060 pro-trans. It's the worst thing in the world when it's the gay conversion therapy and it's 0.99

00:37:29.720 threatening people's lives and it's going to cause them all to commit suicide. But oh,

00:37:33.240 when it's with the little kids that you're convincing them they're the opposite sex, 0.53

00:37:35.960 oh, it doesn't even matter. It's nothing. It's nothing. It's no big deal. And by the way,

00:37:40.080 it's not happening and it's good that it is. It keeps getting more and more extreme and clear,

00:37:47.100 by the way. There's a new poll out. I've said it on the show a number of times that I am very

00:37:51.620 confident the vast majority of Americans oppose transiting the kids. I said, if you do a poll on

00:37:55.520 it, I promise you it's going to be overwhelmingly people oppose transiting the kids. Well, now we have

00:37:59.880 the poll. There's a poll conducted in partnership with the Trafalgar Group. This was conducted by

00:38:05.780 Convention of States Action. And the poll found that 80% of American voters believe minors should

00:38:10.480 be required to wait until they are adults to pursue transgender procedures. Now, I think these 1.00

00:38:15.820 butcher procedures should be outlawed, period. I think they help nobody. They harm a lot of people.

00:38:20.660 They're deeply disordered and they violate the Hippocratic Oath for adults as well as for kids.

00:38:24.680 But at the very least, you have here 80%, four out of five Americans believe that we should not trans

00:38:31.360 the kids. Which raises a big question. Not about transiting the kids, but about our democracy.

00:38:38.220 How is it that the most powerful politicians and institutions in America keep pushing this stuff

00:38:43.500 when 80% of the voters oppose it? If we have our sacred democracy. And the answer is obviously

00:38:51.380 because the powers that be are not actually accountable to the people. And it's not just

00:38:56.500 on transiting the kids. It's on immigration. Harvard Harris poll that I cite frequently says,

00:39:00.920 vast majority of Americans want to drastically reduce all immigration in America. Not just illegal

00:39:06.500 immigration, but legal immigration too. And yet, why is it that no matter who gets elected, we get

00:39:11.480 more and more immigration? Democrats actively pushing it, Republicans allowing it to happen.

00:39:16.320 How can that be if we have a democratic republic? Well, it can only be if the powers that be are not

00:39:22.700 actually accountable to the people. The corporations pushing this nonsense are not accountable

00:39:26.900 even to the market forces. And the politicians are not accountable to their voters. But that first

00:39:33.380 part is important too. Because we often hear, well, and this is from the more libertarian style

00:39:37.980 conservatives. They'll say, yeah, that government, it is corrupt. You're right. Those politicians,

00:39:41.860 they're not actually that accountable to the voters. And that's why we need to defend the free market.

00:39:45.980 And we need to defend the corporations to work out in the marketplace exactly how the Americans want

00:39:51.620 to live. But that's not actually how it works. One, there is no such thing as a perfectly organic free

00:39:57.460 marketplace. There is always a political authority that sets the rules of any marketplace, a physical

00:40:02.080 marketplace or this kind of metaphorical marketplace. But furthermore, we know 80% of Americans hate this

00:40:08.320 stuff. All the big corporations are pushing it. So how can that be? The only way that can be the case

00:40:14.440 is if even the corporations are not actually accountable to their customers,

00:40:19.700 to the supposed free market. If what we have is really more like a rigged game. You know, we launched,

00:40:27.080 speaking of the free marketplace, we launched Jeremy's Razors just a few months ago. We've already taken

00:40:32.380 millions of dollars away from woke razor companies, the exact kind of companies that I am talking about

00:40:36.960 right now, that hate your guts and that use that money to better, we've taken that money and now we use it to

00:40:42.640 better support the stuff you believe in. Now, the time has come for Jeremy's Razors to look inward and conduct a

00:40:48.240 totally legit, not at all hollow or contrived DEI audit of ourselves. So here it is.

00:40:56.040 Is Jeremy's Razors diverse? 0.59

00:41:00.000 No, the Razors are great. We don't need to make different ones. Are Jeremy's Razors equitable?

00:41:07.380 Yes, actually. When you buy a founder's kit, equity is transferred away from your pocket

00:41:11.640 and into Jeremy's pockets. And lastly, are Jeremy's Razors inclusive? Well, of course they are. They include

00:41:18.660 blades. So there you have it. Jeremy's Razors is now DEI, self-accredited, and still the only razor brand

00:41:25.240 that actually upholds virtue instead of merely signaling a false version of it. If you have not

00:41:30.860 already done so, get your shave kit at jeremysrazors.com. This weekend, also, Ben Shapiro released a brand new

00:41:36.040 episode of his Sunday special. It features a very special guest, President of Brazil, Jair Bolsonaro.

00:41:41.180 You can watch the episode on Daily Wire Plus or listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get

00:41:46.460 your podcasts. The push for these radical, unpopular, usually weird kind of sex policies from the top,

00:41:57.520 from the established elite. Keeps getting more and more extreme. The latest video from Old Nick's Pub,

00:42:06.520 which is the Eugene, Oregon venue hosting a child drag show featuring a performance by an 11-year-old

00:42:13.600 child and free admission. Free admission for kids 10 and under. Used to be there was ladies' night at

00:42:19.040 the bar and ladies would get in for free and they'd get cheap drinks because then the men could hit on 1.00

00:42:24.740 the women. Well, now our culture's moved past that. Now we have kids 10 and under night at the bar and 0.97

00:42:31.100 presumably that's for exactly the same reason. This is the bar that we're talking about.

00:42:35.160 ...invaders and demonic forces waged across the land. Upon a mountaintop, the powers of the ethereal

00:42:42.820 overlord and the demonic savior collided. Unholed beams of light were met with a laser glass and

00:42:49.800 demonic flames were met with ethereal blades. As defeat befell them, the leader from their skies

00:42:56.920 kneeled to submission and was impregnated righteously. Infected with the sea of the dark one, 0.99

00:43:05.780 the fallen leader lay decimated and besieged inside a blackened moon. There, a parasitic fetus,

00:43:13.940 the robbed and bribed... All right, I think I've seen it. I've seen it.

00:43:16.580 ...sulled forth by the insidious... So you see in this, I mean, you can hear the narration going on,

00:43:23.900 all this demonic, satanic talk, this kind of weird, occult, alternate history of the world.

00:43:30.980 And then the imagery on stage is just a dude dressed up like a demon with devil horns,

00:43:35.920 doing all sorts of things with people and kind of... All sorts of satanic imagery,

00:43:40.380 the pentagram and all the rest of it. Now there are going to be some people out there

00:43:43.720 who are a little less culturally minded, who are not, you know, maybe they're not all that

00:43:47.880 religious. And they're going to say, oh, you know, look, is this weird? Yes. Is it wrong to

00:43:54.060 let kids into a drag bar? Yeah, that for sure is it. But when we're talking about the imagery,

00:43:58.460 Michael, come on, isn't it... Are we really going to have another satanic panic here? I mean,

00:44:02.900 does this really matter? Yeah, it's dumb. It's weird. But is it really evil? Is it really so bad?

00:44:09.020 Do we care? I mean, it's all just kind of make-believe and pretend and just silly and random,

00:44:13.040 isn't it? There are a lot of people who hold that view. And my question then always is,

00:44:19.880 if it's all just so silly and random, if it's all meaningless, if these symbols don't have any

00:44:27.280 meaning, why is it always the same symbols that we're seeing? Why is it that the deputy monkeypox

00:44:35.340 coordinator for Joe Biden wears the very same symbol that you saw in that satanic image?

00:44:41.260 Why? He wears the pentagram and he has not only a pentagram leather harness on that he photographs

00:44:47.820 himself wearing, he also has a pentagram tattoo on his pectoral muscle. Why is it that Biden's

00:44:55.620 energy advisor, nuclear energy advisor, Sam Brinton, dresses up in all these same kinds of weird

00:45:02.040 leather, occult, demonic sort of things? Why is it that when you see the pro-abortion rally and the

00:45:08.880 transiting the kids rally and all the crazy colorfully haired radicals who are hoisting 0.71

00:45:14.720 the pride progress flag, they always look the same and they've got the same kinds of, why is that?

00:45:20.980 And why does it always seem to come back to the devil? Why is it that Saul Alinsky, when he wrote

00:45:26.160 Rules for Radicals, the most important book for leftist organizing in America probably in a hundred

00:45:30.320 years? Why is it that in the acknowledgements he mentions Lucifer and he says, you know, I've got

00:45:35.900 to mention, I've got to acknowledge here the devil who lost himself heaven but won himself a kingdom.

00:45:41.300 Why is that? Why do the same images, which are the images that have cropped up, the same symbols

00:45:49.160 that have cropped up for all of human history, why are those the ones being used? And I think the

00:45:55.160 obvious answer is because symbols represent something. The symbols represent a symbolized.

00:46:02.940 So yes, they dress up in their stupid outfits and with the horns and they've got this stupid

00:46:08.260 pentagram on the wall. But why are they doing that? Because that physical representation is pointing

00:46:14.900 to a metaphysical reality that is evil. It's just evil. It's bad. And we can't just throw our hands up

00:46:22.540 and write it off and say, well, you know, look, some people like images of angels and cherubim and

00:46:28.220 God and some people like images and symbols of the devil and the pentagrams and the transit. And it

00:46:33.920 just so happens that the people who go to church on Sunday and do their jobs and get married and have

00:46:39.840 kids and take care of their family and want a good country and vote almost always for the conservatives

00:46:45.200 and don't want to destroy our entire society. Those guys always just really like the kind of nice

00:46:51.720 angelic imagery and the people who want to kill the babies and trans the kids and open the borders

00:46:55.700 and destroy our country. They, for whatever, just coincidence, so random, such coincidence, 0.80

00:47:00.440 they're always the ones with the satanic imagery. I think it's a little more than coincidence. I think

00:47:06.240 that really when you get down to it, politics is not about some weird cockamamie five-point

00:47:13.500 ideology that was cooked up in 1752 and now that's all politics means forever and ever.

00:47:18.280 No, I think politics is about, do you want to do good stuff or bad stuff? Do you want to promote

00:47:26.160 truth or do you want to promote falsehood? Do you want your society and your country to be beautiful

00:47:31.640 or do you want it to be ugly like that drag bar that's now luring children in so that creepy men can

00:47:37.480 prey on them? What do you want? What do you want? We have political rights, okay?

00:47:43.500 And for a long time, the conservatives, we just kind of talked ourselves into this insane idea

00:47:49.240 that actually, you know, we don't have any right to stop this stuff. You know, if Google wants to

00:47:56.420 rig the election, well, by golly, we just have to build our own Google, but we have no right to stop

00:48:00.440 them from censoring us and promoting all this terrible stuff and suppressing all this good stuff.

00:48:04.440 We do. We have rights. That's what political freedom is. And that's true in the whole Anglo-American

00:48:11.000 tradition. It goes back much further than that too. That's the idea that Edmund Burke talked about

00:48:16.180 this. The great conservative philosopher, he said, you know, there is an exalted freedom beyond just

00:48:25.400 titillating yourself, beyond just asserting your individual appetites and desires. There's a more

00:48:30.960 exalted freedom that finds that liberty even in servitude itself at times when we are recognizing

00:48:37.700 that we are in a community, we have obligations to one another, and we don't want to live in a

00:48:42.160 country that's transing all the kids, okay? That is what conservatives are waking up to in America. 0.91

00:48:47.140 That's what the Trump movement was about. That's why Trump, he didn't run on the slogan,

00:48:51.320 make taxes low again. Make killing babies and chopping off genitals a private decision again, 0.93

00:48:58.600 okay? He didn't run on that, on that weak, weak, weak kind of pseudo right-wing, pseudo-conservatism

00:49:05.920 that has been dead since the early 2000s and that Britain just learned because they tried to push it

00:49:11.100 again with Liz Truss. That's not going anywhere, okay? Either our society is not going to remain

00:49:17.620 neutral. It's not going to have stasis. We're either going to move toward a good country. We're either

00:49:22.520 going to make our country great again and our civilization great again,

00:49:25.300 or we're going to go to that bar with all those kids and all the demons in Eugene, Oregon.

00:49:30.640 The choice, I think, still remains ours. It's an uphill battle because of the disconnect between

00:49:37.380 the established powers and the actual desire of the people. But the polls show it. We can rest assured

00:49:42.580 the people are broadly on our side. It is simply up to us to assert our political rights. Now,

00:49:47.940 you know, it's Music Monday. I'm so very glad to be here for Music Monday. The producers have chosen

00:49:52.940 a song. I don't know anything about this song or this musician, but I'm going to give you my absolute

00:49:58.400 highest, most sophisticated pop cultural analysis. You know, I'm Wonder Mike and I've come to say

00:50:05.160 hello. I'm a rap mogul, a hip-hop maven. I'm just a culture vulture, baby. The rest of the show is
