The Michael Knowles Show

00:00:00.000 Last night marked the first official meeting of white dudes for Kamala.

00:00:04.700 There were celebrity guests. We'll get to them. There were silly and alternately disturbing

00:00:09.960 arguments. We'll get to them. But first, I want you to close your eyes.

00:00:15.860 Imagine the platonic form of the white dude for Harris. The absolute ideal. Now make him

00:00:24.100 even more of a caricature. Whatever you are thinking, just make it worse.

00:00:31.860 Now open your eyes.

00:00:33.920 And that happens at the same time as the myths around America that we grew up with,

00:00:39.500 that we as men are expected to be protectors and providers are going out into economy that

00:00:45.420 doesn't really allow for that, especially for working class folks.

00:00:48.860 And sort of like compounding on that, you know, masculinity as a trope has been co-opted by

00:00:56.380 the MAGA right into something that feeds into and exacerbates the loneliness epidemic,

00:01:01.080 as well as the mental health crisis that many face that end up leading to really destructive

00:01:05.720 behaviors. We aren't the only ones that are hurt by these things. Black and brown people,

00:01:11.180 LGBTQIA plus people, especially trans women and indigenous people. And, you know,

00:01:17.480 all sorts of other folks in our society who've been historically and often still today are

00:01:23.440 marginalized and being hurt, demonized, and like marginalized even further.

00:01:30.000 Am I right, bro? What do you say, white dudes? Y'all in for Harris?

00:01:38.280 Sorry.

00:01:38.760 Now, if that Mr. Vocal Fry man bun did not convince you, just wait until you hear what

00:01:49.900 fellow white dude for Harris Pete Buttigieg had to say. I'm Michael Knowles,

00:01:54.720 a white dude for Trump, and this is The Michael Knowles Show.

00:02:08.760 After international outrage at the decision by the Olympics to mock Christ in the opening ceremonies,

00:02:24.400 the Olympics committee has fake apologized for it. We will get to their fake apology in a second.

00:03:14.220 it would be and more. And more. Some of the arguments that these people were making were so

00:03:20.020 farcical, not even I would have predicted them. Had I written some of these arguments down

00:03:27.880 in a Hollywood screenplay, turned it into some Hollywood producer, he would have said,

00:03:32.560 Michael, it's too on the nose. You got to make it a little bit more subtle than that.

00:03:36.440 Here is Pete Buttigieg explaining why men need to support someone like Harris specifically

00:03:44.680 because of her stance on abortion.

00:03:47.220 I'm so glad she has made freedom the theme of her campaign because I think in so many ways,

00:03:51.100 that's what's at stake. And yes, women's freedom is exhibit A after Donald Trump demolished the right

00:03:57.160 to choose. But of course, men are also more free in a country where we have a president who stands

00:04:04.240 up for things like access to abortion care.

00:04:07.760 Actually, forget about the women. Men are way more free when women can kill their babies. You see,

00:04:15.200 because the men can then have promiscuous and unaccountable sex with those women. That's right.

00:04:21.060 The men can go out and just use the women for their own sexual gratification,

00:04:25.640 and then they can pressure them to murder the babies that are sometimes conceived so that the

00:04:30.760 men can go out and use and abuse even more women. Isn't that great, guys?

00:04:35.660 Put another nickel in the Pete is not gay conspiracy theory jar. I've always taken Pete at his word that

00:04:46.340 he is a homosexual. However, I have some friends, including a homosexual friend of mine,

00:04:53.100 Spencer Clavin, who has said for a long time that Pete Buttigieg is not really gay. That's his

00:04:58.300 favorite conspiracy theory. And I said, I don't know, man. I don't know. And he said, no, I'm telling

00:05:03.680 you. And his argument was that Pete Buttigieg, I've met many people like this, he's a real striver.

00:05:09.240 You know, he was a Harvard guy, real ambitious. I mean, for goodness sakes, the guy went from being

00:05:14.620 mayor of some town in Indiana to being the transportation secretary, pretty much based

00:05:20.360 on nothing. He decided he was going to be mayor of a small town and then just run for president.

00:05:24.700 He actually did pretty well. So he's a real striver. He's real ambitious. But he has this

00:05:29.160 problem, which is he's a straight white guy. I'm not saying he's a straight white guy. I'm saying

00:05:33.400 this is the conspiracy theory. He's a straight white guy. So he's got this problem, right? He's over

00:05:37.000 there at Harvard. He says, shoot, man, I'm not going to rise very far in liberal politics if I'm

00:05:41.760 the most evil type of person in the world, a straight white guy. So I need something. I need

00:05:45.660 some struggle. And I know, listen, I know, I know a white guy who's married to a woman who identifies

00:05:55.100 as queer. In fact, I know multiple straight white guys who call themselves non-heterosexual or non-straight

00:06:02.300 or whatever. So that's I am taking Pete Buttigieg at his word that he has same sex attraction.

00:06:10.900 However, if this is his best argument for Harris, hey, guys, hey, bros, we can all go out there and

00:06:18.100 just strip a bunch of women and then we won't have to do anything about it because there won't be any

00:06:23.420 accountability. Then I don't know, man, that really actually changes my view of Pete Buttigieg for the

00:06:29.940 worse, for the worse. The other guys were Mark Hamill, you know, Luke Skywalker. He helped

00:06:35.960 organize it, I guess. Buttigieg, Governor Roy Cooper of North Carolina, Adam Schiff, whom

00:06:43.960 Donald Trump calls pencil neck. He's the congressman from California. A bunch of people I've never heard

00:06:50.980 of. David Hogg, you know, you know, that pinnacle of white masculinity, David Hogg. A bunch of other

00:06:57.980 people I've never heard of. Josh Groban, I have heard of him. The dude, the dude was there. Jeff

00:07:05.040 Bridges. So, you know, there were a number of people and they're all embracing their identity

00:07:10.280 as white men. And this is something that the Democrats can do and the Republicans can't do.

00:07:15.280 The Republicans will not appeal to white men, even though white men are the group most likely to vote

00:07:21.760 Republican. White men are the indispensable group for the Republican political coalition.

00:07:27.120 Republicans refuse to make an overt appeal to white men because they are afraid of Democrats

00:07:32.080 calling them racist and sexist. Even though by any even semi-reasonable definition of racism and

00:07:38.800 sexism, the Democrats would fit the bill far more than the Republicans. Doesn't matter. That's just not

00:07:44.760 how it works. A racist is by definition, by the definition that the Democrats have set,

00:07:50.720 a Republican. A sexist is by the definition the Democrats have set is a conservative. So

00:07:57.760 they refuse to do it. But Democrats are exhibiting a really keen political insight right here.

00:08:04.820 And the keen political insight is you only get to the universal through the particular.

00:08:13.340 You only win national elections by winning particular states. And you only win particular

00:08:20.100 states by winning particular counties. And you only win particular counties by appealing to

00:08:24.420 particular demographics. And you only appeal to particular demographics by making overt promises

00:08:31.280 and appeals to races, sexes, religions, civic associations, industries, affinity groups,

00:08:44.220 you know, Star Wars fans. You get Mark Hamill to do your white dudes for Harris. That's how you win

00:08:51.500 national elections. And Republicans don't really seem to get that. We want to jump straight to the

00:08:56.320 universal. So Republicans say we would never, we would never host a white dudes for Harris or white

00:09:03.020 dudes for Trump event. One, because we are so afraid of the Democrats disingenuously calling us racist.

00:09:08.940 But two, we don't want to appeal to identity politics. You know, we just want to brought,

00:09:14.140 we just say we're Americans for Trump. You know, we're all just, we're everybody for Trump,

00:09:18.760 everybody for good things. Yeah, of course we, we want national unity. We want to work

00:09:23.440 in, in accord with one another. We want social harmony. We want our politics to advance the common

00:09:29.640 good, of course. But the way that you win elections in a democratic society, this is maybe one of the

00:09:35.160 shortcomings of democratic society, is you have to make overt appeals to particular groups. That's

00:09:40.780 the only way that you're ever going to achieve any kind of universal political power. Democrats are

00:09:46.280 getting it. Democrats openly despise white men. And yet when election time comes, they're going to

00:09:53.560 assemble those white men together and they're going to tell the white men why it's in their white man

00:09:57.420 interest to vote for Kamala Harris. So Buttigieg has taken a pretty aggressive role in the Kamala

00:10:04.260 Harris campaign. Buttigieg went on the Fox news show, the Sunday show. So this is ostensibly hostile

00:10:11.140 territory. And he went on there to defend Harris, not in his role in the Biden administration,

00:10:17.360 not in his role as transportation secretary. He went on as a private citizen endorsing Harris.

00:10:24.260 Joining us also fresh off the campaign trail, Pete Buttigieg. He's appearing today in his personal

00:10:29.020 capacity. So no disrespect that we aren't using your cabinet title, but you were here as Pete today.

00:10:34.340 Okay. So you've been on the trail.

00:10:35.620 This is your personal capacity. Now she's opening up with that. Shannon Bream is making that point

00:10:42.680 off the top, presumably because that's what Pete Buttigieg requested. Ordinarily, if Buttigieg goes

00:10:48.580 on a news show, he's there as the transportation secretary, which says, we have to make clear you're

00:10:52.180 here as a private citizen today because he's not advancing any work of the White House or the

00:10:58.100 administration or the American people writ large. He's there advancing Pete Buttigieg's personal

00:11:04.200 career interest to support Kamala Harris, perhaps even over the objections of people at the White

00:11:09.680 House. Maybe that's why he's trying to distance himself from his official role here. Because why?

00:11:14.600 Because Pete Buttigieg wants to be Kamala's running mate. That's why. And why would Pete Buttigieg want

00:11:20.080 to be Kamala's running mate? Because whatever you think of Buttigieg, I think the guy is just awful.

00:11:25.640 I think he's really one of the worst people in public life. However, you got to admire the hustle.

00:11:31.940 This is one of the greatest careerists I have ever seen. The guy went from basically having never done

00:11:38.620 anything to being the mayor of a small town to being in a presidential cabinet. That is crazy.

00:11:45.860 That is really, really impressive. And now he wants to leapfrog it again. He's been one of the worst

00:11:51.120 transportation secretaries we've ever had, which is impressive because most people don't even pay

00:11:54.980 attention to the transportation secretary. But we have had historic transportation problems at the

00:12:00.440 national level under Buttigieg's reign. Major train accidents, major airplane problems,

00:12:07.120 major, major transportation issues. Meanwhile, what is Buttigieg doing about it? He's complaining

00:12:13.460 about the supposedly racist bridges in Long Island. He's not doing anything to fix these problems.

00:12:18.160 So he's failing at a job at which it is almost impossible to fail. And he might be Kamala's

00:12:23.720 running mate. And he might be Kamala's running mate in part because it seems like Richard Whitmer

00:12:27.360 doesn't want it. The governor of Michigan seems like Gavin Newsom doesn't want it. And they don't

00:12:31.380 want it because I think that they actually do have some real political seasoning under their belt.

00:12:36.420 I think they're looking ahead to 2028. They're saying, look, maybe Kamala's going to lose this

00:12:39.940 time. I want to keep my powder dry so that I can be a leader of the party next time after four years

00:12:45.360 of Trump. Buttigieg, he doesn't really have all that much going on. He's glib and articulate enough on

00:12:52.380 TV. But that's it. He's got to keep this career train going. He is all in for Kamala.

00:12:59.680 Now, one way that Kamala might win the election is that the election would appear to be rigged by

00:13:05.720 big tech, specifically Google. Elon Musk has posted a lot about this on X. When you try to search for

00:13:12.000 President Trump, first of all, you don't get an autofill of all sorts of nice results that you

00:13:17.360 would get for other search terms on Google. But second of all, what will pop up is news about

00:13:24.360 Kamala and Trump. When you search for Kamala Harris, you do get all that autofill and you get news

00:13:28.800 specifically for Kamala Harris. So Google is rigging the election. And I was told about this by someone

00:13:36.220 who's got a lot of credibility on the issue, who's really poked into Google, and that would be Dr.

00:13:42.500 Robert Epstein. Dr. Robert Epstein is the former editor in chief of psychology. Today, he sat down

00:13:48.860 with me during a Michael and to discuss how big tech can control election outcomes, even the beliefs

00:13:54.760 of people worldwide. Check out this teaser. We published a landmark study in which we show bias

00:14:01.440 in Google search results can change people's views about anything at all. How bad is it?

00:14:08.340 I gave a briefing, a private briefing. A few minutes later, one of them walked out. I know exactly

00:14:13.760 who it was. And he walked up to me and said, Dr. Epstein, based on what you just told us,

00:14:18.160 I predict you're going to be killed in some sort of accident in the next few months. But a few months

00:14:23.260 later, my beautiful, amazing wife was killed in a horrendous car accident.

00:14:30.720 Are you deterred at all? Yes. Then there's another part of me, which is the science guy.

00:14:39.220 Every single thing we do is relevant to everything that's happening right now.

00:14:43.700 Right. With the algorithms shifting the views of people who are undecided on some issue or other

00:14:50.640 around the world by the billions. Now what? We are fucked, okay?

00:14:57.060 The full episode is now available at the Michael Knowles YouTube channel and on Spotify and on X.

00:15:15.500 Now, speaking of Kamala Harris and the presidential campaign, Kamala is attacking Trump's VP. Kamala and

00:15:27.140 the entire liberal establishment is attacking J.D. Vance. And they're attacking him in a particular

00:15:32.340 way. They're calling him weird. That was the tweet from Kamala HQ. J.D. Vance is weird and creepy.

00:15:40.020 Press release. J.D. Vance is a creep. Parentheses, who wants to ban abortion nationwide. So it opens up

00:15:47.080 with this childish, really nasty personal attack. And then only in the parenthetical do you get

00:15:53.540 any kind of political issue. J.D. Vance's obsession with controlling women's most personal health

00:15:59.060 decisions, blah, blah, blah. You know, it's all about we love abortion. That's Pete Buttigieg's

00:16:03.520 argument. Ha ha, guys, vote for Kamala Harris and you can pressure your girlfriends to kill your kid.

00:16:08.020 Ha ha. You know, that's that's really what they're running on. And Kamala has been extreme on abortion.

00:16:13.000 She's prosecuted a friend of mine, David Daleiden, who exposed the abortion industry

00:16:17.020 was illegally selling baby body parts. You know, I mean, she's if she cares about any issue,

00:16:22.640 it is this. It is killing babies. She absolutely loves it. So they're attacking J.D. and it's really

00:16:28.760 not even about the issue that they try to tie it in. It's really about how he's weird. J.D. Vance is

00:16:34.360 weird. OK, is J.D. Vance weird? I don't find J.D. Vance weird at all.

00:16:38.020 I find J.D. Vance actually to be one of the most refreshingly normal candidates we've had in public

00:16:43.540 life. I found his memoir, Hillbilly Elegy, to be refreshingly normal and representative of the

00:16:50.380 experiences of a lot of the American people. I find his view on public policy to be refreshingly

00:16:56.700 normal. He's not some crazed ideologue on the left. You know, the ones who have this bloodlust for

00:17:02.540 babies, for instance, are the ones who want to erase our national borders like Kamala Harris does

00:17:07.600 or the ones who want to stumble us into World War Three like Kamala Harris does or the ones who

00:17:13.500 wanted to destroy our economy because of their own hobby horses like Kamala Harris does.

00:17:19.180 Or even the ideologues on the right, you know, the ones who seem to think that the purpose of society

00:17:25.200 is to serve the great god of GDP or something, the ones who refuse to look at the actual conditions

00:17:31.920 of American life in favor of abstractions about the economy or, you know, liberty with a capital L

00:17:40.120 or anything like that. J.D. Vance I find to be refreshing in that he says, hey, look, we want to

00:17:45.340 have a robust economy and so we want policies that are conducive to economic flourishing, but we don't

00:17:50.260 want that to be at the expense of actual American towns and families. You know, sometimes you can

00:17:56.580 pursue economic policies that really undermine the main strength of the economy, which is the

00:18:02.380 American people and the main purpose of the economy, which is to serve the American people. So maybe we

00:18:05.980 got to cool it with the outsourcing. Maybe we got to cool it a little bit with the free trade

00:18:09.020 sometimes. Maybe we need to cool it with the open borders, which is undermining the American family.

00:18:16.940 Maybe we actually do need a little government intervention sometimes to help support growing

00:18:21.160 families. I find all that normal. But I thought J.D. Vance had an even better response than I had to

00:18:28.120 to this accusation that he's weird. This was his response in video form.

00:18:32.720 And my pronouns are she, her, and hers.

00:18:34.920 She, her, and hers. Mine too.

00:18:39.480 All right.

00:18:40.160 These are the people calling J.D. Vance weird. The kind of people who want to castrate your kids,

00:18:46.000 who think that men can be women, the kind of people who introduce themselves, they say,

00:18:51.320 hi, I'm Kamala Harris. I'm a woman. She, her, and hers. These are the people who call J.D. Vance

00:18:57.580 weird. The ones who celebrate nudist marches in the streets, weird dudes dressed up in leather

00:19:06.840 spanking each other throughout the entire month of June in front of children. These are the people

00:19:11.300 calling J.D. Vance weird. The ones who, who want to eliminate our national borders, flood the country

00:19:17.100 with foreign nationals. They're the one, it's very silly. These are the people, these are some of the

00:19:24.920 strangest people we've ever seen in the history of the United States. But, but so actually it makes

00:19:30.040 sense that they would call J.D. Vance weird. From the perspective of our liberal political

00:19:35.040 establishment, J.D. Vance is very weird. Why? Because he is a normal looking white guy.

00:19:42.660 And you know, white guys are absolutely the bottom of the barrel, the most disgusting people on earth,

00:19:47.640 according to the liberal establishment. That's why they've got it. They now, they realize that's a

00:19:52.840 liability. That's why they're appealing to them directly. But he's a normal looking white guy who

00:19:57.700 came from difficult circumstances, who worked really hard and raised his station in life and wants to

00:20:04.460 help his fellow citizens. And he's married to a woman, you know, and he has kids. He had children

00:20:13.620 and he's propagating the species. And that's just really, really weird. He made money in, in business.

00:20:22.600 You know, he worked in the private sector to help his family. And then he turned some of his gains to

00:20:29.260 public service. That's just weird. In the Democrat view, you're supposed to identify as something that

00:20:38.100 you are not. You are, you're, if you're going to engage in any kind of romance, it should be in the

00:20:44.440 weirdest way possible. You should be with someone of the same sex or I don't know, three dudes in a

00:20:48.000 billy goat or something. You should never have children. Why would you have children? That's crazy,

00:20:52.160 according to our liberal establishment. If you're going to make money, you should make money in the

00:20:55.900 public sector. You should milk what the proportion of the society that's ostensibly for the common

00:21:01.820 good. You should use that to enrich yourself. You should get on the Nancy Pelosi investing train and

00:21:07.220 then it's opposite day for the liberal establishment. That's what it's supposed to be. So when J.D. Vance

00:21:12.720 does normal stuff, yeah, from the perspective of a really perverse elite, normal looks pretty weird.

00:21:22.160 There's so much more to say first though. Go to preborn.com slash Knowles. It's been over two

00:21:27.160 years since the overturning of Roe v. Wade, which was supposed to be a great victory for the pro-life

00:21:30.840 movement. But the number of abortions has increased since then due to the fact that the abortion pill

00:21:35.380 is now more available than ever. New estimates show that more than 1 million babies were aborted in

00:21:40.360 2023. The abortion pill accounted for over 60% of them. Preborn is currently providing free ultrasounds

00:21:46.040 and life-saving resources to expectant mothers, helping them choose life for their babies. They

00:21:52.500 are on the front lines offering support and hope to those facing unplanned pregnancies. Thanks to

00:21:56.720 The Daily Wire's partnership with Preborn, I'm excited to announce that we are able to make our

00:22:00.620 powerful documentary, Choosing Life, available to all on Daily Wire+. This film serves as a crucial

00:22:40.220 Our political establishment, which is, you know, it views normal things as really, really weird.

00:22:47.640 Our political establishment is the kind of political order that mocks the Last Supper.

00:22:52.500 We covered this yesterday on the show. The Olympics opened up in Paris by mocking the Last Supper.

00:22:59.360 And now there are some libs who are, I think, disingenuously trying to argue that it really

00:23:04.540 wasn't a mockery of the Last Supper. No, no, it was a mockery of some 16th or 17th century

00:23:10.060 Dutch painting about Cupid and Psyche, or else Dionysus, or else, I don't know, some other

00:23:16.820 Olympians. And it just wasn't. I went through on the show yesterday why that is obviously not the

00:23:21.720 case, both from the perspective of artistic interpretation, but also from the perspective

00:23:26.060 of history. And of course, there was a pagan element there, but that was the point. The point

00:23:30.220 was to replace an image of Christianity in what was once called the eldest daughter of the church

00:23:37.580 in France with a return of the pagan demons. So obviously that was the point there. And they

00:23:45.520 did all of this. And now they're fake apologizing. There was international outrage, Christians

00:23:51.420 marching peacefully and beautifully and prayerfully, but still showing up saying this is completely

00:23:56.340 unacceptable. At least one advertiser pulled out. We'll get to that in a second. There was so much

00:24:00.800 international pressure that the Olympics had to address it. And here's how they addressed it.

00:24:05.020 This according to Anne Descamps, a Paris 2024 spokesman. Clearly, there was never an intention

00:24:14.280 to show disrespect to any religious group. Oh, is that clear? That's not clear to me. It's actually

00:24:20.020 clear to me that the opposite is true, that you did intend to disrespect Christians. She says,

00:24:23.960 clearly, total gaslighting. Clearly, there was never an intention to show disrespect to any

00:24:28.580 religious group. Christians, by the way, lady, you can use the word. The religious group that may

00:24:33.900 not be named. No, it's Christians. No one accused you of disrespecting Muslims. You'd never do that

00:24:38.500 because you're afraid to get your heads chopped off. No one's accusing you of disrespecting Hindus

00:24:42.600 or Jews or Jews or Jans or Shinto or any other group. It's Christians that you disrespected or any

00:24:52.160 religious group. We believe that our ambition of aiming to celebrate community tolerance was achieved.

00:25:03.800 And if people have taken any offense, we are, of course, really sorry. If you,

00:25:09.280 completely unacceptable. Completely. This is worse than had they not said anything at all.

00:25:16.420 They did the thing. They did that thing that is so irritating that I'm sure you've all experienced

00:25:22.440 before, which is, oh, well, I'm really sorry if you were offended. Oh, yeah. Oh, you were offended.

00:25:28.120 I'm sorry that you were offended. Don't be sorry that I'm offended. Be sorry that you offended me.

00:25:33.600 That's what you need to be sorry. You can't, you don't need to apologize for my feelings. You can't

00:25:37.700 control my feelings. I'm not asking you to apologize for my feelings. I'm asking you to

00:25:43.240 apologize for what you did for the disgusting actions that you perpetrated, Olympics committee.

00:25:51.140 That's the problem here. My feelings aren't the problem. I guess my feelings are a problem and

00:25:58.360 the feelings of Christians worldwide are a problem for you now because you're getting so much backlash

00:26:03.060 and at least one of your advertisers is pulling out. And you, this is now probably the lowest watched

00:26:08.260 Olympics for the lowest viewership ever relative to the size of the population. Yeah. Yeah. That's

00:26:15.920 a problem for you, but that's not the problem. The problem is that you mocked our Lord. That's the

00:26:21.880 problem that you put on a disgusting and sacrilegious display. That's why, that's why I am even less

00:26:29.100 inclined than I previously was to watch the Olympics. That's why many people are tuning

00:26:32.600 it out this year. That's the problem. So apologize for that, but they're not. No, we didn't, we didn't,

00:26:38.460 we never, obviously we never intended to offend anybody. And what we wanted to do was celebrate

00:26:43.100 tolerance by mocking Christ. And so, you know, we did that and we didn't do anything wrong. And if

00:26:47.960 you're, if you're offended, then like, I'm sorry for you. That sounds like it's a you problem.

00:26:51.780 Okay. All right. Well, at least we know where you stand. We know that the Olympics hates Christ and

00:27:00.900 disrespects Christianity. That's what we know. Even if there were some innocent mistake,

00:27:07.120 just a little confusion of representation in that opening ceremony, this non-apology

00:27:12.980 makes perfectly clear what they think of Christians. And so I think Christians should

00:27:18.720 make perfectly clear what we think of the Olympics. I have no, no interest in watching

00:27:23.280 one second of that. And I think any company that continues to advertise with the Olympics,

00:27:28.500 and there are a lot of them, is making very clear that they don't have any respect for Christians.

00:27:35.000 There's one company at least that's pulled out. C Spire. C Spire is the largest privately held

00:27:40.460 wireless company in the US. Very quickly reacted, said this display is disgusting, pulled their

00:27:47.760 advertising from the rest of the games broadcast on NBC. I hope many other companies follow.

00:27:53.920 C Spire is making clear, hey, we think it's wrong to disrespect God and to offend Christians. We

00:28:01.460 think that's wrong. We're not going to support that. Every other company that's keeping their

00:28:05.240 dollars in there is telling you exactly what they think of Christians. You know who else is telling you

00:28:10.580 what they think of Christians? The first lady of the United States, Jill Biden, who effectively is

00:28:14.960 probably the president of the United States because her husband doesn't have a functioning brain

00:28:19.560 anymore. Jill Biden came out and she called the Olympics opening spectacular. It was spectacular.

00:28:28.620 The rain did not dampen our spirits. And Casey, honestly, every step of the way, I was thinking to

00:28:35.780 myself, oh my God, oh my God, how are we going to top this? How are we going to top this? So, okay,

00:28:41.240 so Paris has the, you know, Eiffel Tower, but we have Hollywood and the magic of Hollywood that makes

00:28:52.760 all dreams come true. So, I think we're going to be okay. Spectacular. Oh, yes. When they mocked the

00:28:59.280 apostles and our Lord at the Last Supper before his passion and crucifixion, I thought that was just

00:29:05.580 wonderful, just marvelous. Boy, oh boy, wasn't that just great? It's the first lady of the United

00:29:10.660 States, the wife of the supposedly devout Catholic, Joe Biden, who manifestly is not a devout Catholic.

00:29:16.520 He's not even a practicing Catholic because he violates non-negotiable aspects of his faith in public

00:29:21.360 life. Happily, gleefully, it is not, if it wasn't clear previously, it should have been, but if it wasn't

00:29:32.300 clear previously, it is not permissible for Christians to vote for Kamala Harris. It is not

00:29:38.540 permissible for Christians to support with their votes the Biden-Harris administration. Perhaps the

00:29:45.020 simplest way of understanding why that is the case is the sacramental view that they take of abortion.

00:29:53.300 Their absolute defense of abortion, of murdering innocent babies in the womb, is sufficient reason

00:29:58.600 to prove that it is not permissible for Christians to vote for them. That is one of those issues that

00:30:05.220 we would call non-negotiable. The church has been clear about this. Certain issues, reasonable people

00:30:11.200 can disagree. Pope Benedict XVI observed that reasonable people can disagree over the death

00:30:17.780 penalty. Some Christians make an argument as to why the death penalty in the year of our Lord 2024

00:30:24.240 is not permissible. However, the church has taught for approximately 2,000 years that the death

00:30:30.960 penalty is permissible and in some cases quite called for. And in fact, beatified popes have

00:30:35.760 exercised the death penalty many, many times in the papal states. So Pope Benedict's argument was,

00:30:42.100 you know, this is one of those issues where reasonable people can disagree in good faith.

00:30:47.600 However, murdering little babies is not one of those issues. From the earliest days of the church,

00:30:53.400 the earliest church documents that we have, going back to the didache, abortion is not

00:30:58.040 permissible. Obviously, the Fifth Amendment, or the Fifth Amendment, I'm confusing my constitution and

00:31:02.700 my commandments. The Fifth Commandment says that you shall not commit murder, so that alone should

00:31:08.340 suffice. But this is even explained in the earliest days of the church. You just can't do it. Not

00:31:15.360 acceptable. And we know that this is a central issue for Kamala Harris, maybe more so than it was

00:31:20.200 for Joe Biden. This is the big pitch that Pete Buttigieg is making. Hey, white dudes,

00:31:25.340 vote for Kamala. She's going to let you kill your babies. So this is not acceptable. And the fact

00:31:29.760 that they would celebrate the overt mockery of our Lord is, I think, just, if you were a little too

00:31:39.100 thick-headed to understand it before, this is just, you know, one of those instances of political

00:31:45.240 circumstances shaking you and saying, hey, buddy, if you are a Christian, you can't vote for these

00:31:50.560 people. Now, what else does Biden have up his sleeve? Remember Biden? Joe Biden, not Jill Biden.

00:31:56.460 Joe Biden, he's supposedly the president of the United States. Joe Biden says he's going to devote

00:32:01.020 the remaining time in office to destroying the Supreme Court. He has a plan. He's going to radically

00:32:07.060 revolutionize the Supreme Court. I don't know that Joe Biden's going to make it through breakfast

00:32:12.300 most mornings, but he says he's going to undo the separation of powers. He's going to remake one of

00:32:20.680 the supposedly co-equal branches of government. His plan involves three points. He wants to end

00:32:29.400 life tenure for Supreme Court justices. Life tenure for Supreme Court justices is found in the Constitution.

00:32:36.340 This has been how the Supreme Court has worked from the beginning of our country.

00:32:40.000 Joe Biden wants to end that. After centuries, he wants to end it. He wants to inject electoral

00:32:48.380 politics in an unprecedented way into the Supreme Court. He wants to institute a new ethics code for

00:32:55.100 justices. So here we have, just as we previously saw, the legislative branch trying to exert domination

00:33:01.700 over a supposedly co-equal branch of government by imposing an ethics code on the Supreme Court.

00:33:07.100 Now you have the executive branch trying to do the same thing, saying we control you. We're going to

00:33:12.100 impose an ethics code on you that effectively makes you answerable to us. So the framers of the

00:33:20.040 Constitution gave us separation of powers, co-equal branches of government. One branch doesn't get to

00:33:25.480 dominate the other branches. Joe Biden's saying, yeah, forget about that. Forget about those framers.

00:33:30.380 Forget about that Constitution. I am going to dominate through the executive branch. I'm going to

00:33:34.620 dominate the Supreme Court. That's the second part. Third part is an amendment cracking down on

00:33:39.860 presidential immunity. So he wants an amendment to imprison Trump because he knows that it's not

00:33:48.660 legal for him to imprison his political rival. They weren't able to beat him at the ballot box or in the

00:33:54.180 court of public opinion. It remains controversial whether they beat him at the ballot box in 2020. But

00:34:00.520 looking ahead to the 2024 race, they haven't been able to beat him in the court of public opinion.

00:34:04.600 So then they tried to prosecute him. And in an unprecedented move that makes Joe Biden look

00:34:10.660 like this would-be dictator in Venezuela, Maduro, look like any tinpot dictator in a banana republic,

00:34:18.060 he's trying to imprison his political rival. Then there was the assassination attempt,

00:34:22.480 the rather odd assassination attempt that occurred just two days before the Republican National

00:34:27.920 Convention, which only was avoided by a last-minute, nanosecond early hair's breadth turn of the head

00:34:33.940 that saved Trump's life. So they couldn't beat him. They couldn't imprison him. No one could kill

00:34:40.340 him. So now Joe Biden is saying, I'm going to change the Supreme Court in order to lock up my political

00:34:46.280 rivals. And Mike Johnson, the Speaker of the House, says that's not going to happen. So here's a reporter

00:34:53.000 asking Biden about that on a tarmac. It might be a little bit hard to hear that. Biden's response

00:35:06.760 to this is, he is. He's dead on arrival. My thing's not. He is. You are. Uh-uh.

00:35:16.140 We'll, we'll analyze that soaring, typically Biden-esque rhetoric in just a moment. First

00:35:44.380 from Sean DeLapp, 8587, who says, the footage was taken down from their own channel because they

00:35:48.900 can't deal with the backlash they're receiving. This is, this is the Olympics. That's interesting.

00:35:52.120 I hadn't, I hadn't looked at the Olympics YouTube channel. I wouldn't be surprised though.

00:35:57.760 They, they believed that they could just keep pushing this, pushing this further and further,

00:36:02.940 and just now outright mock Christ in the opening to the Olympics. And they would get away with it

00:36:08.920 because the libs have such cultural dominance. And that didn't quite work out this time.

00:36:12.920 They did receive at least some modicum of backlash. And I, I think they should receive a lot more.

00:36:18.960 I've never cared for the Olympics. I think the modern Olympic games are obviously just some big

00:36:22.880 lib nonsense. You know, it started with the advance of liberalism at the end of the 19th century.

00:36:28.140 And it's always this, you know, kumbaya, we are the world kind of stuff. I mentioned that on the show

00:36:32.400 yesterday. The ancient games were just pagan rituals. They were, they were actually pagan. I don't,

00:36:39.980 I don't mean that in any shallow way. I mean, they actually existed to pay homage to the pagan gods.

00:36:47.120 And so I generally think that's, that's not a, not a great idea, especially, you know, after

00:36:52.120 the revelation at Sinai. And then of course at the incarnation, I just think generally we ought to

00:36:57.540 avoid honoring the pagan gods. So the Olympics do very little for me. There are plenty of great

00:37:03.480 athletic leagues in America. It's fine. All the best athletes come to America to train anyway. So the

00:37:07.720 whole thing is just a big farce. But, but now I see even less reason to pay attention to the Olympics.

00:37:15.240 Mike Johnson, Republican Speaker of the House, says that Biden's plan to destroy the Supreme Court

00:37:19.840 is dead on arrival. Joe Biden responds and says, I think he is dead on arrival.

00:37:26.180 Which to translate that into a little bit more elevated political rhetoric is, uh, uh, I am rubber and

00:37:36.560 he is glue. And what he says bounces off of me and it sticks to you. Uh, uh, nah, uh, but it is dead on

00:37:47.740 arrival for now. The Republicans barely, but they do control the House of Representatives.

00:37:51.640 There, there, there has been one other attempt to do what Joe Biden is attempting to do to,

00:37:59.060 to fundamentally alter the Supreme Court, to serve the whims of the executive branch.

00:38:02.540 And that was by FDR. FDR was the American monarch. He, and upended the tradition set by George

00:38:09.920 Washington of presidents only serving two terms. FDR was going to serve forever. And he ended up dying

00:38:14.460 in office, uh, four terms, uh, he, he, he was our King, you know, and this was at a time in the West

00:38:21.880 when there was a rise of these dictator figures, uh, Mussolini FDR, or Mussolini Hitler and, and others.

00:38:29.360 Um, so there was, there was this rise of real strong man politics that did away with constitutional

00:38:35.440 inconveniences. And it was all happening in the 1930s. So it was, it was not just about one man. It was

00:38:40.440 about, uh, a political movement throughout the civilization. And FDR was our version of it.

00:38:45.440 And so as a strong arm political figure, I'll be at one on the left. We usually think of them on the

00:38:50.860 right because of how the liberal media, uh, lie, but, but ours was on the left. He wanted to destroy

00:38:57.160 the Supreme Court and he wanted to destroy the Supreme Court because the court kept shooting down

00:39:01.180 his plans to re to revolutionize the federal government through his new deal programs.

00:39:06.200 And the court kept observing that his new deal programs were unconstitutional. So, uh, FDR said,

00:39:12.340 okay, well, I'm going to pack the Supreme Court and I'm going to add a bunch of my judges to the court.

00:39:15.880 And then the court is, is going to ratify all of my plans. And the only reason that this was avoided

00:39:23.240 is because of an event that's referred to as the switch in time. So a switch in time saved nine,

00:39:30.740 saved nine justices. Uh, this was in, uh, 1937 in, uh, the, the case of, what was the name of the

00:39:39.800 case? Coast, uh, West Coast Hotel versus Paris, West Coast Hotel versus Paris. Uh, this was a 1937

00:39:47.720 case about a minimum wage law in Washington state. And, uh, throughout 1935 and 1936, uh, this,

00:39:56.560 this one, uh, judge Owen Roberts, who was an associate justice on the court, uh, kept being

00:40:02.060 the deciding vote, the five, four votes to shoot down the new deal programs at the very end in

00:40:06.660 1937, he switches sides and he switches sides in order to give FDR what he wants so that FDR won't

00:40:12.940 completely destroy the Supreme Court by packing it with his political cronies. So Biden wants to make

00:40:20.020 himself a new FDR. He wants to make himself this new strong man unbound by constitutional,

00:40:24.920 uh, uh, you know, limits and, and by the limits of our political tradition. I mean, he's a guy who's

00:40:30.860 trying to imprison his political rival. This is something we really haven't seen in America,

00:40:34.580 at least not, not a major political rival. You did have, uh, uh, Wilson going pretty hard against

00:40:39.280 Eugene Debs, but he was the socialist candidate for president. He only got 8% of the vote here.

00:40:43.280 You're talking about the, the Republican nominee for president, Donald Trump, who's actually the most

00:40:47.800 popular candidate in the race by trying to throw that guy in prison. He wants to make himself a

00:40:53.340 king. He wants to make himself the, the, the new FDR differences. FDR had the juice and Biden

00:40:59.960 doesn't have the juice. FDR had a lot of political power. If you, if you speak to people of a certain

00:41:05.160 generation, even people who are conservative, they will speak of FDR with a great deal of respect,

00:41:13.520 reverence because he was a king in the way that the Brits speak of the monarchs.

00:41:17.800 Uh, Biden doesn't have that juice. Biden doesn't know what his name is half the time. Biden doesn't

00:41:22.520 know what end is up. So I suspect this will fail. I suspect Mike Johnson is right, but the desire

00:41:29.300 here is exactly the same. Biden wants to reorder our federal government before he leaves. It's

00:41:35.120 probably going to go as well as every other political initiative Biden's ever taken. How's

00:41:38.800 he doing on that cancer moonshot? Did Biden cure cancer yet? Still waiting on that one. Speaking of

00:41:43.500 high courts, good news coming out of the UK and the UK, I guess, uh, good news coming out from the

00:41:49.020 motherland. The UK high court has officially banned puberty blockers. We covered the story early some

00:41:55.720 months ago when the NHS decided they were going to stop, uh, prescribing puberty blockers, uh, for kids

00:42:03.980 who identify as transgender or whatever. They said, this is a terrible, it's, it's, there's no evidence

00:42:09.560 that this actually works and it could lead to lots of negative consequences for kids who grow out of

00:42:14.080 it. So we're, we're going to stop that. Well, justice Beverly Lang from the, uh, UK has just said

00:42:20.880 that that rule will stand. The appeals against that rule, they flop. Uh, this is it. We're not

00:42:30.020 going to trans the kids anymore. And you're seeing similar rules being passed in France. You're seeing

00:42:33.860 similar, uh, provisions being passed in different American states, though not at the federal level yet

00:42:38.220 because Biden and Harris are still totally gung-ho on castrating your kids when they don't succeed

00:42:43.040 in killing them in the womb. Uh, so what has this revealed? This has revealed a limit of liberalism,

00:42:50.120 which is good. This is worth celebrating. I don't want conservatives to be complacent here.

00:42:58.900 We are still losing. Liberals have still won almost uninterrupted for the past 60, 70 years,

00:43:05.920 but we've seen a limit here. Transing the kids was just too far. Even in the UK, even in France,

00:43:16.780 which is more liberal than we are, even in many American states, it was just a little bit too far.

00:43:21.060 And I don't think liberals are going to succeed at, uh, totally normalizing castrating your kids

00:43:26.120 anytime soon. There is a limit to liberalism. They've still won. They've normalized murdering

00:43:32.700 your kids. They've normalized, uh, the, a new definition of marriage, which is completely

00:43:37.240 absurd. They've normalized obscene displays in the streets. They've normalized DEI in corporate

00:43:44.740 America. They've normalized CRT in the classrooms. They've normalized the abolition of national

00:43:50.020 borders. They've, they've won so much, but at the very least, uh, we can, we can take some

00:43:58.620 consolation that we we've seen. They're not omnipotent. There is a limit to liberalism.

00:44:03.320 There are ways that we can win, that we can start to chip away. You know, I was talking about Star

00:44:07.160 Wars earlier because Mark Hamill's a white dude for Kamala. There's sometimes there's a little hole

00:44:11.100 in the death star. And if you get that missile just right from the little X wing airplane thing,

00:44:16.780 maybe there's a chance that we can crack that edifice. Before we go, there's a really sad story,

00:44:23.200 but it relates to what we've been talking about. Uh, comes out of Texas, a Texas mother threw her baby

00:44:27.980 in a dumpster, newborn baby. Uh, she threw her in a dumpster. This gal, Evrilda Coox-Ad-Salam,

00:44:35.420 uh, she's 18 years old, teenage mother, uh, threw her baby in the dumpster. When asked why by police,

00:44:40.920 she said that she didn't want her boyfriend to break up with her. So she, she threw her baby out.

00:44:45.240 Uh, she's now said to be a flight risk. She's been arrested. Um, she has no ties to America. So I

00:44:51.760 guess she's a, some illegal alien. Uh, she's currently in jail with a $90,000 bond.

00:44:57.980 And, you know, could face very serious prison time. Why, why had she just killed the baby? Not

00:45:07.800 even abandoned the baby, but killed the baby one hour prior. She could have done it in a clinic

00:45:14.980 throughout much of the United States. And not only would she not have faced any fines or jail time,

00:45:21.220 she would have been celebrated as a brave hero. Uh, she, she would have been celebrated by Joe Biden

00:45:26.000 and Kamala Harris and Pete Buttigieg exercising her freedom. So I, I don't, it's completely

00:45:32.520 incoherent. You know, I almost, I don't really pity the girl cause what she did was so terribly evil.

00:45:37.600 And apparently she has no business being in the country anyway, but I can understand her confusion.

00:45:43.440 Why is it that she would have been allowed to murder her baby in a, in a very painful way

00:45:49.000 one hour prior to her abandoning her baby and, and presumably leaving the baby to die?

00:45:55.840 Why is one of those a horrific crime and one of those to be celebrated, to be celebrated by

00:46:03.400 the president and the vice president and the transportation secretary and all, all the white

00:46:08.360 dudes for Harris completely incoherent. When, when mayor Pete is making his pitch, here's why you

00:46:16.460 got to vote for Kamala. He's saying, you got to vote for Kamala. Cause you can do exactly the same

00:46:21.840 thing, morally, exactly the same thing that that Texas mother did when she threw her baby in a

00:46:25.960 dumpster. It's teehee Tuesday. The rest of the show continues now. You don't want to miss it.
