00:00:00.000
Kamala Harris has officially secured the necessary delegates to become the Democrat nominee for
00:00:04.480
president. For now, who knows? This seems to change by the hour, so by tomorrow,
00:00:10.100
maybe we'll have a new one. For now, however, she's the nominee. And she is wasting no time
00:00:15.260
in setting the theme of her campaign, which is to take your guns and kill your babies.
00:00:20.800
We who believe that every person in our nation should have the freedom to live safe
00:00:26.740
from the terror of gun violence, will finally pass red flag laws, universal background checks,
00:00:37.320
and an assault weapons ban. And we who believe in reproductive freedom
00:00:56.320
I need to give a hat tip to Joel Fisher on X for discovering this little gem of a campaign theme
00:01:01.580
because it is so ironic. She wants to gut the Second Amendment because guns kill people,
00:01:07.820
and she wants to gut the Dobbs decision because it won't let you kill people.
00:01:11.820
precisely the kind of coherence that we have come to expect from the woman who wants to imagine what
00:01:17.340
can be unburdened by what has been. But there is another reason, beyond an antipathy for our rights
00:01:23.280
and a bloodlust for babies, that Kamala Harris is seizing on guns and abortion. The reason is
00:01:29.000
there are issues for which ability and accomplishment can't really be measured. If Kamala were to run on
00:01:37.520
her administration's immigration policy, she would lose because we know that they have failed to
00:01:44.400
secure the border. They've let in millions of illegal aliens. If Kamala were to run on the
00:01:49.540
administration's economic performance, she would lose because everyone goes grocery shopping. We all
00:01:55.040
know the economy is not doing so hot. If Kamala were to run on the administration's handling of foreign
00:02:01.080
affairs, she would lose because we can see the new wars that have started on their watch. But if she runs
00:02:08.600
on the future promise of restricting gun rights and expanding abortion, she will win over sympathetic
00:02:16.300
voters because there's always another gun to take and another baby to kill. Her choice of campaign issues
00:02:23.260
reveals in part her ideological radicalism. But more than anything, it reveals her and Joe Biden's
00:02:31.240
abject failure to score any wins on which she could possibly run. I'm Michael Knowles. This is the Michael Knowles Show.
00:02:53.260
Welcome back to the show. The sidekick on the Mr. Beast YouTube channel. Mr. Beast is the largest YouTube
00:03:04.640
channel. His sidekick's name is Chris Tyson. He has just stepped down from the show entirely. This is long
00:03:12.180
after he abandoned his wife and child to pretend to be a woman. Now the reason he's stepped down is because
00:03:18.820
he allegedly caught having had sexual conversations with a 13-year-old boy when he was 20 or something
00:03:26.100
like that. Not great stuff. You would say actually disreputable stuff. We'll get into how all this
00:03:33.420
happened and what it means politically. Not beyond whatever, this Mr. Beast show that I don't even
00:03:37.380
watch. What it means just in our culture in a moment. First though, today is the final day to get 47%

00:04:05.060
and to give your money in the form of universal medicine to, not to American citizens, to illegal
00:04:15.340
aliens, as we recall from this clip when she was running for president herself five years ago.
00:04:20.460
The bill also says, quote, every individual who is a resident of the United States is entitled to
00:04:26.160
benefits for health care services under this act. Not every individual who's a citizen, but every
00:04:30.680
individual who's a resident. So you support giving universal health care and Medicare for all to
00:04:36.460
people who are in this country illegally? Let me just be very clear about this. I am opposed to any
00:04:41.900
policy that would deny in our country any human being from access to public safety, public education,
00:04:51.240
or public health, period. Period. Period. We're giving your taxpayer money, but not just for universal
00:04:57.760
health care, but also for education. And we're going to give your taxpayer money to foreign
00:05:02.000
nationals. Foreign nationals who come into this country illegally are going to get better services,
00:05:08.360
access to more stuff than you do, an American citizen. This wasn't a million years ago. This
00:05:12.560
isn't some gotcha clip like you play a clip of Joe Biden from 1975 and you say, ha ha, see, there's Joe.
00:05:18.900
He's a racist, or he's a Grinch, or he's this, or he's that. This is a clip from when Kamala was
00:05:24.140
running for president. Last election cycle, she dropped out of the race before the primaries,
00:05:29.180
then she was picked for VP. She was picked for VP, it would seem, based on the way that she ran
00:05:36.440
in 2020. Now, of course, that's not true. As Joe Biden told us, she was picked for VP because she's
00:05:42.340
a black woman. And the other two black women who were up for it, Karen Bass and Susan Rice,
00:05:48.260
were disqualified because the former is a communist and the latter was the fall man for Benghazi.
00:05:52.380
But it would seem plausible, at least, that the way it was all pitched after the fact was that
00:05:59.880
Kamala was picked based on her campaign, based on her ability to be president should anything
00:06:06.360
happen to Joe Biden. So that's what we judge her on now, and she is ideologically to the left of
00:06:11.440
Biden. Joe Biden is a man of the left, and he's moved much further to the left in recent years because
00:06:16.820
he's not a conviction politician. He's an empty suit. He goes whichever way the wind blows and the
00:06:21.200
Democratic Party has moved to the left. And Kamala Harris is significantly to the left of him.
00:06:25.380
You remember from that same time period, this is about four years ago now, she went on the Stephen
00:06:30.300
Colbert show, and when she wasn't cackling and cracking herself up, she was asked about the BLM
00:06:35.860
riots, BLM riots that she funded because she bailed the rioters out of jail. Kamala Harris said they're
00:06:44.580
not going to stop. I know that there are protests still happening in major cities across the United
00:06:49.720
States. I'm just not seeing the reporting on it that I had for the first few weeks.
00:06:54.260
That's right. But they're not going to stop. They're not going to stop. And this is a movement,
00:06:59.120
I'm telling you, they're not going to stop. And everyone beware, because they're not going to
00:07:04.580
stop. They're not going to stop before Election Day in November, and they're not going to stop after
00:07:09.200
Election Day. And that should be, everyone should take note of that on both levels, that this isn't,
00:07:14.800
they're not going to let up, and they should not. And we should not.
00:07:18.560
Notice here, this isn't even Stephen Colbert trapping her in some tough question. He just
00:07:23.680
points out, he says, yeah, there are protests, we just don't see it being reported that much.
00:07:27.080
And then she keeps going. She makes her position more clearly radical. And you can almost,
00:07:33.760
you look on Colbert's face, he's always thinking like, lady, shut up, cut it out. Come on,
00:07:37.060
I'm trying to help you here. She says, no, no, no, they're not going to stop. All these mostly
00:07:41.300
peaceful arson events, all these riots, and the looting, and the killing, it's going to keep
00:07:47.560
going. It's not going to stop, and it shouldn't stop. This is the Kamala Harris that Republicans
00:07:54.000
should run against. The Republicans are running against the Biden-Harris administration.
00:08:01.640
The Democrats made a last-minute change because they felt certain that they were going to
00:08:07.040
lose with Biden because they can't defend the Biden-Harris administration record.
00:08:12.640
So they made this last-minute swap, and they're hoping that that can off-foot the Republicans.
00:08:16.960
And maybe it will to some degree. But the Republicans can basically keep running the
00:08:21.200
same campaign, at least as it pertains to the issues, at least as it pertains to the last three
00:08:25.220
years. Because Harris is the vice president. So she's part of the Biden-Harris administration.
00:08:32.740
And we can run against that version of what we've seen for the past three years. However,
00:08:41.780
inasmuch as we are going to focus on Harris as a person, we need to focus on the recklessness,
00:08:50.600
the lawlessness, the radicalism. This is the key. There is going to be a Republican inclination to
00:08:57.440
attack Kamala from the left. We were talking about this a little bit last night on Backstage.
00:09:03.260
Kamala Harris, before she was vice president, was a senator from California and the attorney
00:09:06.880
general of California. And when she was attorney general, she prosecuted a lot of people. She
00:09:11.280
prosecuted a friend of mine, David Daleiden, for exposing the fact that Planned Parenthood sells
00:09:18.100
baby parts for money. And she went after him because he was exposing the evils of the abortion
00:09:25.160
industry. And she went after a lot of other people. And an attack from the left on Kamala Harris is that
00:09:30.000
she locked up a lot of black men. It's okay to lock up those white men, but she locked up a lot of black
00:09:36.320
men for drug offenses. And for some reason, I don't know, I guess we're supposed to legalize all the
00:09:42.220
drugs or something like that. We've got the worst drug crisis ever in American history. We got people
00:09:45.800
dying left and right, but for some reason, the left wants us to legalize even more drugs.
00:09:50.300
And so the attack from the left was, she locked up these black men for drug crimes. And that's
00:09:55.240
really bad. And I know there already are some Republicans who are parroting this attack.
00:10:01.060
Locking up drug dealers and gangsters and criminals is the one good thing Kamala Harris has ever done.
00:10:06.940
Okay, if you're going to attack her for anything, that should be the very last issue that you turn to.
00:10:16.360
You don't attack Kamala Harris because she's locked up too many criminals. Americans want our
00:10:22.840
politicians to lock up criminals. One of the big problems over the Biden-Harris administration is
00:10:27.400
they don't lock up criminals and crime has spiked. And you obviously see that at the southern border
00:10:31.160
where the cartels now control our border. The Kamala Harris to attack is the Kamala Harris who goes on
00:10:38.620
the Colbert show, who unsolicited says BLM riots are going to continue. They should continue.
00:10:44.580
We're going to burn down your cities and I'm going to bail the riders out of jail.
00:10:47.620
That's the real Kamala Harris. It's the one to go after. It's the one who is going to be repulsive
00:10:53.180
to the American people. There's so much more to say. First, though, go to goodranchers.com.

00:12:19.080
Well, for one, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer.
00:12:21.700
So now that the process has played out from the grassroots bottom up, we are here today
00:12:28.780
to throw our support behind Vice President Kamala Harris. I'm clapping. You don't have to.
00:12:37.720
When I say for one, Chuck Schumer, I mean, he's the one person who's supporting Kamala Harris.
00:12:42.480
That is the second Jeb moment in two days of the Harris campaign.
00:12:47.920
We played the Jeb moment yesterday, the please clap, please clap. That was from Kamala herself.
00:12:55.780
And now we're getting the please clap from Chuck Schumer. We're here to support Kamala Harris.
00:13:01.300
At least I am. Whatever. You don't have to clap. That's fine.
00:13:04.520
Now, it's not totally fair to say it's just Chuck Schumer. It's also House Minority Leader
00:13:09.660
Hakeem Jeffries. Kamala Harris and her candidacy has excited and energized the House Democratic
00:13:19.700
Caucus, the Democratic Party, and the nation. Vice President Harris has earned the nomination
00:13:29.200
from the grassroots up and not the top down. Water is very dry and the moon is made of green cheese
00:13:43.580
and up, as we all know, is really down and black is white and we are through the looking glass.
00:13:51.940
Yeah. Nothing he said is true. Everyone's really excited about Kamala Harris. We'll get to the poll
00:13:59.720
numbers in just a second. The spoiler alert, they're not really excited about Kamala Harris.
00:14:04.260
We're all really excited and Kamala Harris has earned this nomination. She hasn't. She hasn't. She
00:14:09.800
hasn't gotten a single vote while running in a Democrat presidential primary. And this was a
00:14:16.320
decision made by the grassroots from the bottom up, not the top down. Everybody basically in the
00:14:22.380
entire Democrat Party who voted in a primary voted for Joe Biden. And then you people took Biden out
00:14:27.220
against their will and you installed Kamala Harris. And I get why you did it because Biden's brain
00:14:31.880
turned to pudding and his poll numbers were bad. So you had to make a last minute substitution
00:14:35.520
because you were going to lose to Trump. Okay. Yeah, I get it. But don't pretend this is some
00:14:41.160
grassroots populist movement. You just installed her because she was the only one you really could
00:14:46.900
turn to. And she's one of the few politicians who's equally empty in her suit as Joe Biden is.
00:14:56.100
Nobody really believes what Jeffries is saying. No one really believes what Schumer is saying. He
00:14:59.740
even jokes about it himself. He goes, okay, I'm the only one clapping, whatever. Okay.
00:15:03.900
But they don't care is the other thing. Republicans are going to hit this attack for a few weeks.
00:15:08.960
This isn't Democratic. The Democratic Party isn't Democratic. Sure. They don't care.
00:15:14.640
The Democratic Party has never been all that Democratic. In 2016, they rigged the primary
00:15:19.480
against Bernie Sanders. It's a machine. It's a political machine. Barack Obama came out of the
00:15:24.880
Chicago machine. Democrats have had big machines going back all the way to Tammany Hall and Boss Tweed in
00:15:32.480
New York and further back than that even. So that's that. The Democrats pretend to care.
00:15:40.360
And so they will pay lip service to this. But they can get away with making these preposterous
00:15:47.340
statements that no one believes because they just need to say it. It doesn't really need to be true.
00:15:55.160
This is like all the Democrats who said for three years that Joe Biden does not have dementia.
00:15:59.480
He's not senile. He just has a childhood stutter. I don't think they really believed that. I don't
00:16:04.680
think most of them really believed that. They were trying to convince themselves they need to give
00:16:08.220
themselves an excuse to elect him. But they were just going to elect him anyway. This guy, the left-wing
00:16:14.720
streamer Destiny, he and I were on Piers Morgan's show a couple of weeks ago. And he said, this was back
00:16:20.480
when Biden was still in the race, he said, I would vote for an urn of Joe Biden's ashes before I would vote
00:16:25.560
for Donald Trump. And I think that's that's what most of the Democrats believe, even if many of them are not
00:16:29.640
willing to state it explicitly. So they don't really care. That's that's why there will be no blowback for
00:16:35.360
Schumer saying, right, we all love Kamala. Yeah, whatever. Who cares? She's your nominee. Deal with it.
00:16:41.220
And I think probably Democrats are looking at the race now. They're thinking, OK, maybe this woman has a
00:16:46.260
slightly better chance than Biden to beat Trump. Probably she's going to lose anyway. That's why a lot of us
00:16:52.200
don't don't want to be her VP. We don't want to be too close to the Harris campaign. But OK, lady,
00:16:56.560
this is your best shot. You're never going to win a Democrat primary for president. So you're happy.
00:17:00.960
We're happy that we've got a candidate who at least has a pulse and, you know, whatever. We'll roll the
00:17:05.520
dice. Worst case, Trump's term limited at one and then maybe we can get him in 28. I think that's a lot
00:17:10.680
of the calculation going on here. The only thing more contrived than the grassroots Democrats,
00:17:18.240
Schumer and Jeffries for Harris, is the Nikki Haley voters for Harris. This group came out
00:17:25.900
yesterday, said, we support Joe Biden's recommendation and will immediately change
00:17:30.500
the name of our organization to Haley voters for Harris. This was apparently a pro Haley
00:17:35.840
PAC before it switched over to being a pro Harris PAC. There's no time to lose. She was a tough
00:17:42.700
prosecutor and we encourage her to select a moderate VP. OK, Nikki has already sent a cease and desist
00:17:50.140
letter here. Nikki says, stop using my name. I don't support Harris. I endorse Trump. I spoke at
00:17:55.940
the Republican National Convention. Absolutely outrageous. But this could have been expected
00:18:00.620
because, as I've said from the beginning, I know some people listening right now are gaga for Harris,
00:18:06.980
for Harris, for Haley. You know, they really liked Haley. It was a minority, obviously, but they really
00:18:11.200
liked Haley. And I know there are a lot of people who don't like Haley because they think Haley is too
00:18:15.880
left wing or too moderate or she wasn't sufficiently loyal to Trump or whatever. Now, I personally really
00:18:22.640
like Nikki Haley. And I've said many times she's a very, very skilled politician. She was able to
00:18:28.680
succeed as a moderate governor of South Carolina. Then she was in a very public role in the Trump
00:18:33.460
administration and won a lot of plaudits from the conservative wing of the party and the MAGA wing of
00:18:38.080
the party. And then she criticized Trump. Then she ran her own race. She ran in the moderate lane
00:18:43.860
in 2024. But now she's kind of back in the good graces. Trump is saying nice things about her. She's
00:18:49.540
very good. The problem, though, is when she was running in the only lane available to her in the
00:18:55.520
2024 presidential primary, that necessarily meant appealing to squishes, some of whom would rather
00:19:01.580
vote for leftists and Democrats than Donald Trump, who is a center-right Republican, albeit the
00:19:07.700
most conservative probably of my lifetime relative to the time period in which she's running. So this
00:19:13.440
was always going to happen. That's the hazard of running that way. I think it's super smart of Haley
00:19:19.060
to send a cease and desist. She's done a great job at keeping her political career on track and
00:19:25.360
maintaining her position in the GOP. Got a speaking spot at the RNC. Don't need this. But it does expose
00:19:32.300
some of the squishes. When the squishes in the GOP say, you know, I just can't possibly vote for
00:19:37.900
this ruffian Donald Trump. You know, this rapscallion, he just sends mean tweets and uses
00:19:43.800
vulgar language. Very often, they're just Democrats. They're just saboteurs. Again, I'm not saying that's
00:19:50.460
Nikki. Nikki's a Republican who endorsed Trump. But a lot of these people, a lot of these squishes,
00:19:55.300
they would much sooner vote for a Democrat like, even like Kamala Harris, who is significantly to
00:20:01.400
the left of Joe Biden. So what do the poll numbers show? Is Trump in trouble? We'll turn to CNN,
00:20:07.840
actually, to give us some information on that. There's so much more to say. First, though,
00:20:12.400
go to zapmydebt.com. Do you ever think, how can I work this hard and still be in debt? The piles of
00:20:19.720
overdue bills, the threatening phone calls, and never having money to do anything. If you were trapped in
00:20:24.540
debt, Zero Debt USA is the way out. They have developed aggressive new strategies to end your
00:20:29.900
debt permanently. Zero Debt USA stands between you and the bill collectors. They negotiate with
00:20:34.940
creditors to lower or even forgive what you owe. And they do it all without bankruptcy or loans.
00:20:40.560
Bottom line, Zero Debt USA has powerful strategies that zap your debt quickly. So you have more money

00:21:16.180
I'm not just looking at the right-wing polls. I'm not just reading the right-wing media. Here we turn
00:21:22.400
to fake news CNN. But the fake news, it's fake in that it attacks conservatives and it favors
00:21:29.460
Democrats. Well, here CNN's numbers seem to suggest Trump's looking pretty good. In the ABC News Ipsos
00:21:36.600
poll, he recorded his highest ever favorable rating at 40%. That's not a one-off. Take a look at the
00:21:41.420
university poll. 46%. That's the highest ever in that pollster. The fact is Donald Trump is more
00:21:47.920
popular now than he ever has been before. So yes, Democrats can make this switcheroo,
00:21:53.220
but they're still going to have to beat Donald Trump. A Donald Trump who is stronger, Sarah,
00:21:57.280
than he has ever been before. It will be interesting to see how voters respond to all of this. Now,
00:22:03.140
how is he doing relative to Harris, who did run at one point? What do those numbers look like?
00:22:08.700
Yeah, so let's take a look here, right? We've been focusing so much on how Harris was doing better
00:22:13.720
than Biden in the polling. And that's true. If we take a look at the national average, what do we see?
00:22:17.440
We see Donald Trump up by one. That's a within-the-margin race, right? That's a close race.
00:22:22.780
But remember, of course, in the national popular vote, Democrats tend to do better there than they've
00:22:26.980
done in the Electoral College, at least when Donald Trump has been running for president. So last time
00:22:31.020
around, when Joe Biden barely won in the Electoral College, he actually won the national popular vote
00:22:35.700
by four points. So at this point, Donald Trump is running five points better, five, that's a five
00:22:42.000
of some sort, five points better than he was four years ago against Joe Biden.
00:22:47.700
This is all good news. This is all really good news because you're going to hear the doomers on
00:22:53.140
the right, especially, saying, oh no, Trump, he's totally out of it. Kamala pulls better than Biden.
00:23:00.760
Well, maybe she does, a little bit better than Biden, but still not looking great. And right now,
00:23:07.940
Trump is still up in the race. And by the way, Trump, when it comes to the national polling,
00:23:13.300
Trump could even be down in the race and still very likely win because the race is not decided
00:23:17.060
by the national popular vote. It's decided by the Electoral College. Trump did get a boost after his
00:23:22.680
assassination in terms of approval, or his assassination attempt that he survived by a hair's
00:23:29.080
breath. He did get a boost after the RNC. The RNC was extraordinarily well run.
00:23:34.880
Laura Trump deserves a lot of credit. Everyone who had a hand in putting on the RNC deserves a lot
00:23:39.340
of credit. It was tight. It was jubilant. It was on message. It was a very impressive showing.
00:23:46.700
That's not often or always the case. Sometimes conservative and Republican Party events are
00:23:52.800
completely off the wall, but they did a great job at the RNC. And you're seeing that reflected in the
00:23:56.640
polling. Now, we have another poll. Forbes, Harris X shows Trump versus Harris is 53-47. So Trump's got
00:24:04.060
a six-point spread there. And don't forget, this is the Harris honeymoon period. So candidates,
00:24:11.540
when they're just floated as potential candidates, potential nominees, they tend to look a lot better
00:24:18.920
than when they actually get into the race and the dirt starts flying. No one was really focused on
00:24:25.780
Harris until about three days ago. So if past is precedent, Harris's numbers are only going to get
00:24:33.680
worse from here. That's not an argument that Republicans should be complacent. Republicans
00:24:37.040
need to go out. They need to vote early. They need to harvest ballots. They need to get really aggressive
00:24:42.320
in the way that Democrats always do. Think about how aggressive Democrats are. They booted out their guy
00:24:47.100
who gave 54 years of his life to the Democrat Party. They threw him under one of those big yellow school
00:24:52.180
buses that Kamala loves so much the second it looked like he might hurt them in November.
00:24:56.280
So we have to get aggressive too. But right now, we're looking good. Our nominee is as popular as
00:25:03.660
he's ever been. We know our nominee's already won a presidential election at least once. The numbers
00:25:09.220
look pretty solid. He got a boost after the RNC. And now you just got to start slinging that dirt at
00:25:14.820
Kamala and stay focused. Don't focus on the things about Kamala that no one really cares about. I
00:25:21.140
don't think American voters care that she was too tough on crime. I think that'll make them like her
00:25:26.260
more. I don't even think voters really care that she had a somewhat disreputable early start to her
00:25:33.200
political career in San Francisco. It's funny to joke about. We've all kind of joked about that tabloid
00:25:39.940
gossip about her. But I actually don't think that really moves any voters in November. Focus on the
00:25:44.080
real stuff. She's got a horrible record. Her ideology is extremely left-wing. She owns the
00:25:48.680
Biden-Harris administration. Democrats are making this Hail Mary last-minute kind of play. I don't
00:25:55.800
think that it appears to be working very well in the polls. Now, in other news, Joe Biden appears to be
00:26:00.660
alive. We weren't sure. I said that I was convinced that Biden was alive, but the Democrats were doing a
00:26:08.500
good job convincing me that he wasn't, meaning they wouldn't show a picture of him. They wouldn't
00:26:13.600
show a video of him. They played this weird audio of him, ostensibly a phone call, but Kamala Harris
00:26:17.760
referred to it or began to refer to it as a recording. Well, we saw him. He was walking out
00:26:23.200
on the tarmac from a limo to an airplane, and here is how he dealt with the press.
00:26:33.620
Why did you drop out of the election? Was it a difficult decision to make?
00:26:45.800
That guy is far gone. He looks, now sure, it's loud on a tarmac, but he turns, he sees the
00:26:52.520
reporter. The reporter says, why'd you drop out, Mr. President? He looks like he's confused. Not
00:26:57.960
that he didn't hear the question, almost like he doesn't understand the question, doesn't know who
00:27:01.820
the guy is. He says, why'd you drop out? It's a pretty simple question. Biden kind of gets this
00:27:06.840
lost smile on his face and then walks away clumsily rigid into his car. That guy's done. That guy's
00:27:18.020
toast. And I'm certain that whatever deal they struck when he was in Rehoboth Beach quarantining
00:27:26.340
from COVID involved him stepping aside from the 2024 race in exchange for him not getting 25th
00:27:33.760
Amendmented and being able to keep his office for six plus months. But how can that guy be president?
00:27:41.220
He's supposed to speak tonight to address his stepping down and how he's going to remain on
00:27:46.960
the job. He might resign for all we know. But how can that guy stay in office? If you've ever
00:27:56.500
had a relative, say, who's dealt with dementia, you know what it's like and you know how fast it
00:28:01.160
progresses. The one, I guess, rejoinder to that is our foreign adversaries, people like Xi Jinping or
00:28:12.140
Vladimir Putin. They've known that this guy's a vegetable for years. The FSB, the successor
00:28:17.040
organization to the KGB, is a pretty good intelligence gathering organization. So, you know,
00:28:21.760
if your average uncle, Uncle Paul, you know, wearing the MAGA hat at Thanksgiving dinner has known that
00:28:29.780
Joe Biden's a vegetable for three years, I'm pretty sure that the president of the Russian Federation
00:28:33.740
knew it too. I'm pretty sure Xi Jinping knew it too. And so the foreign affairs have been managed
00:28:39.800
terribly. But I'm not convinced that they're going to be managed any worse now that the cat's out of
00:28:45.000
the bag, even among the Democrats, even among the people who watch NBC and read the New York Times
00:28:48.820
than it was for the last three years. Now, speaking of people who were totally done,
00:28:54.000
the Secret Service director has finally resigned. Kimberly Cheadle faced calls from Republicans
00:28:58.980
and Democrats. She held on for something like 10 days after the shooting. She should have resigned
00:29:03.260
to that the following morning after President Trump was nearly murdered. She tried to hold on.
00:29:09.640
She had no support among lawmakers. Her boss, Alejandra Mayorkas, the DHS secretary,
00:29:15.880
said he had 100% confidence in her. Biden seemed to back her in as much as he's able to make any
00:29:23.020
decisions these days. But the lawmakers of both parties said she had to go. And so she just resigned.
00:29:30.100
Mayorkas backed her because he knows that he's the next one who would be responsible.
00:29:35.280
And he wanted to keep his job, so he was trying to defend her. He was trying to push the responsibility
00:29:41.180
down the line. I'm glad she's resigned. She obviously had to resign. This is not even close
00:29:47.600
to enough. The first question that we need to get the answer to, there are going to be all sorts of
00:29:52.900
investigations. That woman might be dragged before Congress again. Mayorkas certainly needs to sit
00:29:58.740
before Congress. We need a lot of other people from the U.S. Secret Service and DHS hauled before
00:30:03.840
Congress. The first question that we need the answer to is, who denied the Trump team the requests
00:30:12.140
for additional security? The Trump team requested additional security from Secret Service and DHS.
00:30:19.000
Initially, Secret Service said the Trump team did not request that security.
00:30:22.660
Then, after being pressed on it by reporters, the Secret Service admitted, okay, yeah, they did make
00:30:29.860
requests for extra security and they were rejected. So first question, who denied the requests?
00:30:37.620
Second question, when and how frequently did they deny the requests? Third question, who covered up
00:30:47.020
the denials for the requests? Those are the first three questions that we need to have answered.
00:30:52.660
If you suspect, as many people suspect, that there is some kind of conspiracy afoot to kill Donald
00:30:59.140
Trump, the man that the left has demonized as Hitler and an existential threat to our democracy for
00:31:04.260
eight years. If you think that some people might have wished for his death, those are the first three
00:31:09.620
questions you got to answer. If there is any conspiracy to be unwound, I'm not saying there is other than
00:31:17.040
this kind of bureaucratic conspiracy to deny him security. We at least know someone in the government
00:31:24.800
wanted to deny him his necessary security. That in itself is a kind of conspiracy to kill him.
00:31:33.520
Got to get those answers. Who's going to give us those answers? Kim Cheadle? Maybe, maybe not.
00:31:37.880
Some deputy at secret service? Maybe. Alejandro Mayorkas? He better give us those answers. And if
00:31:46.260
they don't give the answers, they should be held in criminal contempt of Congress and they should be
00:31:50.200
thrown in jail, just like the libs are throwing all of the senior Trump White House officials in jail
00:31:55.240
right now. We cannot let the memory hold this. There was an attempt to murder Trump and there were
00:32:04.160
people in the government who were complicit in that attempt, at the very least because they denied him
00:32:08.560
the security he needed. That is an established fact. If we don't find out who those people are,
00:32:15.320
if we don't hold them to account, we are letting crooked politicians and bureaucrats get away very
00:32:22.460
nearly with murder. Today is the final day to get 47% off your Daily Wire Plus annual membership.

00:32:48.700
Norm's Music? It's amazing how, because I don't look at the names. I just look at the good comments
00:32:55.400
and so frequently, they send me so many comments. Obviously there are many, many comments on each one of
00:33:00.040
these episodes. And it's the same small handful of people who tickle my senses of delight. He writes,
00:33:08.200
now that Cheadle has resigned, she can focus on writing her book, The Audacity of Slope.
00:33:14.220
I am a sucker for a good pun. It's real good. Speaking of scandals, this is a story I held off
00:33:22.580
talking about. Because I don't want to get into nasty personal scandals, no matter how gross,
00:33:31.240
of people who are just in the popular culture, no matter how prominent they are in the popular
00:33:35.940
culture. But now it's really burst into the public. So I don't think that I'll be revealing
00:33:42.260
anybody's private sins. It's all quite public. Chris Tyson is the sidekick to Mr. Beast. Mr. Beast
00:33:48.420
is the biggest guy on YouTube. Gets bazillions of views for every video. Chris Tyson hit the headlines
00:33:55.040
some months ago because he abandoned his beautiful wife and infant child to go pretend to be a woman.
00:34:03.540
And this was rather disreputable and creepy and weird. At the time, Mr. Beast defended him.
00:34:13.160
This is one of the worst things that I can imagine a man doing, abandoning his wife and scandalizing
00:34:17.960
his little kid to go live out some perverted sexual fantasy. That is about as gross and disgusting
00:34:23.760
as an act as anyone can commit. But Mr. Beast stood by him and said, oh, you know, he's living his true
00:34:30.100
self or whatever, you know, the kind of pro-trans language. He condemned some of the critics as
00:34:37.880
transphobic. Okay. Well, now this guy, Chris Tyson, who I guess he goes by the name Ava now,
00:34:44.580
uh, he has been caught some years ago. I think this was a past scandal, uh, allegedly messaging
00:34:52.300
a little boy when he was 20 or so, he was messaging a 13 year old boy. They were having sexual
00:34:58.800
conversations. And, uh, I, I believe he was, uh, enticing him to engage with pornography and all.
00:35:06.800
It's really bad. So this was a bridge too far. He has quit or been fired from the Mr. Beast show.
00:35:13.540
And he writes, I would like to apologize for any of my past behavior or comments. If it hurt or
00:35:20.300
offended anyone, it was not my intent. Seeing recent events, we've mutually decided it's best.
00:35:26.460
I permanently step away from all things, Mr. Beast and social media to focus on my family and mental
00:35:30.700
health. Would have been nice to focus on the mental health a little earlier. Would have been nice to
00:35:35.700
focus on the mental health, uh, and have your friends, uh, encourage you to focus on your mental
00:35:41.440
health when you were having an obvious mental breakdown and, and rather than being, uh, helped
00:35:47.000
during that period, you were actually just affirmed in your delusions. That might've been nice.
00:35:50.360
Uh, but what, what did people expect was going to happen? You know, I, I sometimes point out it's,
00:35:58.780
it's always the ones you most expect. You're telling me, hold on a second. You're telling me
00:36:05.560
that, uh, the, who abandoned his wife and infant child to pursue, uh, a, an autogynephilia fetish
00:36:17.220
that he discovered apparently through his, uh, obscene and excessive use of pornography, uh,
00:36:25.040
you're telling me that guy got involved in some inappropriate behavior. Gosh, you don't say
00:36:29.200
golly, wow. Who could have guessed it other than anyone and everyone ever who could have guessed
00:36:38.380
it? I, I don't want to hammer on this guy too much because it's so gross. Uh, however,
00:36:46.920
the reason I bring it up politically, this is a political story even more than it's just pertains
00:36:51.460
to entertainment or pop culture. This highlights a point that I made two days ago on the show.
00:36:57.360
The point I made two days ago is that internet pornography is unambiguously bad and harmful
00:37:07.060
and you should flee it like it's fentanyl because what's the story? What is the, uh, pivot of this
00:37:14.680
story of the, of the latest revelations about this guy, Chris Tyson? What does it all center around?
00:37:20.260
It centers around internet pornography. This is a guy who is using the internet to look at content and
00:37:26.880
engage with content that appeals to the prurient interest and, and then to talk about that kind
00:37:31.900
of content and, and allegedly engage in that kind of content with a minor. So that everyone's focusing
00:37:38.000
on the fact that he's talking to a little boy, which is obviously very horrible. But what was the
00:37:42.860
circumstance of that? What was the occasion of that? It was internet porn. How did this guy come to
00:37:50.520
believe that he's really a woman? I don't know. I never looked at his browser history, but especially
00:37:56.880
given these recent revelations, I would, I would be willing to wager every single penny to my name
00:38:02.560
that this guy has had a relationship with internet pornography. And I, I think if I offered anybody
00:38:10.400
out there, no, I don't care how liberal, I don't care how much you want to defend this guy or the
00:38:14.140
transgender movement or whatever. I, if I offered anyone out there the opposite side of that bet,
00:38:19.500
no one would take it because we all know that it's true. So, so this guy engaged in what he thought
00:38:25.800
would be a harmless little recreation, apparently for years and years and years now. And what did it
00:38:33.660
cost him? It cost him his family, his beautiful wife and infant child. It wouldn't matter even if he
00:38:42.420
had an ugly wife, it would, you know, it shouldn't matter, but somehow it does seem worse that he had
00:38:46.540
this beautiful little family, young, really young kid. He gave that up. He gave up his reputation.
00:38:53.080
Obviously he became a laughingstock overnight. He gave up his career, everything. He gave it all up
00:39:02.280
to pursue a sexual fetish, to, to, to titillate himself. His ear, his extremely irrational sexual
00:39:13.040
impulses. He gave up everything. This is exactly like a drug addict, drug addicts who have it all
00:39:22.040
and they give it all up. They lose their families. They lose their homes. They lose their jobs. They
00:39:26.460
lose their reputation. They lose everything so they can shoot some junk into their veins or so they can
00:39:32.020
drink another bottle. And we pity those people. And we, and we treat those kinds of addictions as
00:39:40.260
major public health problems and political problems. And we deal with it politically. But for some reason,
00:39:44.920
when it comes to the weird sex stuff, not only do we not discourage it, not only do we not try to
00:39:49.680
remedy it, we actually celebrate it and we encourage it and we throw parades for it.
00:39:54.040
No wonder the problem is getting worse. Speaking of the dangers of woke ideology,
00:40:00.260
my friend, Matt Walsh has a new movie coming out. We premiered the trailer last night on
00:40:07.900
We want to rename the George Washington Monument to the George Floyd Monument. Would you mind signing
00:40:11.880
it? You will. What do you think about this issue of heteronormativity and how it intersects
00:40:17.100
with the broader structures of racism in society?
00:40:20.380
Oh. They gonna say I'm racist. What's up with white people?
00:40:25.160
What are you doing to de-center your whiteness? Who's making it the center? Why are they doing
00:40:29.180
that? And what you're doing is you're stretching out of your whiteness. This is more for you than this
00:40:35.840
White. Folks. White. Trash. White supremacy. White woman. White boy. White. Entitlement. White.
00:40:40.280
Centering. White. Silence. Is there a black person around here? What happened? There's a black person
00:40:43.680
right here. Does he not exist? Hi, Robin. Hi. And what's your name? I'm Matt. Matt. Hi, Matt.
00:40:54.440
Thanks to me. I just had to ask who you are because you have to be careful.
00:40:59.500
Gotta be careful these days that for those who didn't catch it or who are only listening,
00:41:03.460
that's Robin DiAngelo. That is probably the most prominent woman in the entire anti-racist
00:41:07.800
huckster movement. And Matt somehow got her to sit down with him. So the movie is going to be great.
00:41:13.180
The reason I mention it is not only to get everyone excited and to go out and get tickets,
00:41:17.580
because this is going to be in theaters. But I mention it because I want to talk about the
00:41:22.860
importance of being in theaters and the importance of being in the world. I'm sure the movie is going
00:41:26.420
to be hilarious. I very much look forward to watching it. I really haven't seen any more of it
00:41:30.800
than you have. Though from what I've heard, I've heard about the scenes and it's going to be
00:41:35.200
great. However, what really gets me excited about this is the in theaters part.
00:41:42.100
Not even because that's going to make us more money. I don't know that it will. It might make
00:41:44.880
us less money if it's in theaters. But it's important to be in theaters because, as I say a
00:41:51.760
lot, we are incarnate creatures. We are not just ideas floating in outer space in eternity. We are
00:41:58.160
incarnate creatures in time and space. And it's very, very important. If you want to move culture,
00:42:02.520
if you want to move politics, you have to be in the physical world, in time, in history,
00:42:07.980
doing things where people gather together. This is, in a totally different industry,
00:42:14.480
this is a large part of the motivation behind Mayflower Cigars. Part of Mayflower, look,
00:42:20.180
part of Mayflower Cigars is I like smoking cigars and I want to bring good cigars to people.
00:42:25.000
Part of this movie for Matt is he likes trolling the libs and he's very good at it.
00:42:28.840
But part of it is I like cigars because it brings people together in physical places to have
00:42:38.320
conversations over real periods of time with a physical, tangible thing in shops where you go
00:42:42.560
and you meet people and you use the fullness of your humanity, your body, because we're not just
00:42:50.040
virtual digital creatures plugged into the matrix. Well, the same is true here. This is the first time
00:42:55.960
that we've got in a Daily Wire original movie that is going to be in theaters where you can go with
00:43:00.640
your friends, with your family, do things in theaters and force the libs to deal with this,
00:43:07.440
not just be in our own corners of the internet, but force the broader society to deal with it.
00:43:11.480
So it's very exciting and it's not only going to be good content, but it's exemplifying
00:43:17.820
a rather conservative view of how society even works. Okay, we got my friend Megan Basham coming
