The Michael Knowles Show - Ep. 1592 - Hurricane Victims Can't Get The $750 From Kamala

00:00:00.000 A University of Kansas professor says men who don't vote for Kamala should be shot.

00:00:05.600 Tim Walz calls to abolish the Electoral College.

00:00:09.100 And celebrity women turn to salmon sperm to recover their lost youth.

00:00:13.760 I'm Michael Knowles. This is The Michael Knowles Show.

00:00:30.000 Welcome back to the show.

00:00:35.320 Four illegal aliens have beaten a Texas woman and robbed her at gunpoint and threatened to cut off her fingers if she did not tell them where her valuables were.

00:00:44.200 Now, that happened because it's a day ending and why.

00:00:46.980 But it tells you something profound about our whole immigration system.

00:00:51.460 We'll get to that in one second.

00:00:52.620 First, though, you need to get your Mayflower cigars.

00:00:58.240 And you have to get – I am on a mission of mercy here, folks, okay, because, you know, there was that little kerfuffle down at the ports, including the port that imports Mayflower cigars, thanks to the Longshoremen strike and all.

00:01:12.080 It has disrupted things.

00:01:13.840 Even if the ports had not been closed for even one day, the Mayflower cigars are going to sell out.

00:01:19.760 We've ramped up production dramatically since we launched, a little under one year ago today.

00:01:25.840 However, if you want your Mayflower cigars for Thanksgiving, if you want your Mayflower cigars eight-count sampler, which is our top seller for Christmas, if you want them to celebrate Trump's victory after the election, God willing, you need to order them now.

00:01:42.420 If it gets to be Thanksgiving, it gets to be Black Friday, it gets to be three weeks before Christmas, and we're sold out, then I don't want to hear it, okay?

00:01:51.000 I don't want your angry tweets and your angry emails.

00:01:53.700 I'm giving you fair warning.

00:03:16.500 Today, in particular, might be a good time to look into diversifying.

00:03:19.900 Text Knowles to 989898.

00:03:22.680 Kamala Harris keeps putting her foot in her mouth, and she puts her foot in her mouth because she's been opening her mouth, and she's opening her mouth because the polls are not improving for her. 0.98

00:03:34.100 And the Kamala campaign knows that every single time Kamala opens her mouth, it is perilous and probably counterproductive. 1.00

00:03:42.640 However, there's really nothing else that's going to help boost her in the polls because the economy's not good, the migration situation's not good, foreign policy's not good.

00:03:52.360 And then, of course, there are these natural disasters followed by a federal government response, which is terrible.

00:03:57.420 So they've got to send her out there.

00:03:59.460 They kept her away from doing interviews for weeks after she accepted the nomination.

00:04:04.220 Now they're putting her out here, and she keeps fumbling every single time, including in this question that is now making its way around the Internet.

00:04:12.660 The Trump campaign is pushing it out there.

00:04:15.020 Kamala Harris was asked who America's greatest adversary is.

00:04:21.580 Her answer was not only wrong but stupid.

00:04:25.160 Which foreign country do you consider to be our greatest adversary?

00:04:29.640 I think there's an obvious one in mind, which is Iran. 0.81

00:04:34.220 Iran has American blood on their hands, okay? 0.97

00:04:37.580 This attack on Israel, 200 ballistic missiles.

00:04:42.220 What we need to do to ensure that Iran never achieves the ability to be a nuclear power, that is one of my highest priorities. 0.96

00:04:52.720 So if you have proof that Iran is building a nuclear weapon, would you take military action?

00:04:58.260 I'm not going to talk about how to do this at this moment.

00:05:01.960 What a great interview.

00:05:03.180 That interview is the gift that keeps on giving.

00:05:06.140 So Kamala Harris says Iran is America's greatest adversary.

00:05:09.000 That is just not true.

00:05:10.460 Her evidence of this is that Iran attacked Israel, and that's very bad.

00:05:13.720 It's very bad that Iran attacked Israel, but Israel is not the United States. 0.96

00:05:16.960 And Iran is simply not our great. 0.95

00:05:19.500 It is an adversary.

00:05:21.000 But would anyone really say that Iran is a greater adversary than China?

00:05:25.600 China, China, which is making a play to displace America as the global hegemon?

00:05:30.980 Would anyone even say that Iran is a greater adversary than Russia?

00:05:34.020 We fought a cold war with Russia since the 1940s, and there was a little brief period in the 90s when it cooled down a little, but Russia still has a ton of missiles pointed at us.

00:05:43.000 And we're waging a proxy war with Russia right now in Ukraine.

00:05:45.980 So, no, Iran is not our greatest adversary.

00:05:50.740 It's not even really close.

00:05:52.220 Then, on top of that, she stepped on the rake because she said, Iran's our greatest adversary.

00:05:58.500 We can't let Iran become a nuclear country. 0.99

00:06:01.520 And so the obvious follow-up question is, okay, if you found out that Iran was on the brink of nuclear capabilities, would you attack?

00:06:08.100 She goes, oh, I'm going to, I'm going to, yeah, it's our greatest adversary, poses the greatest risk to Americans.

00:06:13.380 It is completely unacceptable for Iran to get a nuke, and we won't do anything to stop it. 0.99

00:06:17.280 That was her answer.

00:06:17.860 But then it gets even worse than that because if Iran really were America's greatest adversary in the whole wide world, then Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have a lot of splaining to do as to why they gave Iran $6 billion.

00:06:34.300 $6 billion.

00:06:35.820 Actually, Iran has been given more money than that over the broad course of the Obama-Biden to Biden-Harris administration.

00:06:44.040 But just $6 billion comes from a Biden-Harris policy to unfreeze Iranian funds.

00:06:51.540 Just give them all $6 billion for no reason.

00:06:54.560 Well, the real reason is they were bribing Iran to make Iran free some hostages.

00:07:00.300 So you have foreign policy weakness, you have billions of dollars being just handed over to America's supposedly greatest adversary after Biden had already handed over a ton of cash to Iran during the Obama administration.

00:07:15.320 And then you say, after we do that, after we give them a ton of money and we allow them to build a nuclear weapon, we're not going to bomb them.

00:07:25.360 We're not going to go to war.

00:07:26.280 Absolutely, the most perfectly incompetent, ignorant answer I can possibly imagine, even if it were right, it would make her look terrible. 0.99

00:07:37.760 Now, speaking of Biden-Harris administration mismanagement, there is a sheriff, a hat tip to Sarah Carter here for getting this interview, down in the Carolinas, who is helping with some of the recovery efforts from Hurricane Helene.

00:07:57.360 And he's got a little correction for the Biden-Harris administration.

00:08:03.400 Remember, Kamala Harris came out and said, yeah, we're sending zillions of dollars over to Ukraine.

00:08:09.240 We're giving thousands, tens of thousands of dollars to illegal aliens who come here or to people that were flying in from the third world to be here legally.

00:08:18.680 We're going to fly them into places like Springfield, Ohio, and we're going to give them a ton of money and a ton of government benefits.

00:08:24.480 But if you, an American citizen in the Carolinas or East Tennessee or wherever, had your entire livelihood just washed away, you can apply to maybe get $750 in relief funds.

00:08:38.820 And this sheriff points out they can't even really do that.

00:08:42.620 That lady that's running for president talks about the $750. 1.00

00:08:50.180 What about all that money you give to Ukraine and all these other people that really want to kill us, don't want to do anything to help us? 0.90

00:08:56.600 Why don't you just give that money to them? 0.55

00:08:58.140 That's who you want to give it to to begin with.

00:09:00.300 And a lot of people have been turned down for the $750.

00:09:04.660 Almost everybody I've spoken to hasn't received any of the funding, and they've been turned down for personal items.

00:09:13.220 Well, they talked about get on your phone or your computer.

00:09:16.340 Do you not see what the devastation is?

00:09:18.120 They don't have a phone or a computer.

00:09:20.180 There's nothing up here.

00:09:21.280 There's no communication.

00:09:22.440 I'm going to be posting this later.

00:09:24.280 There's no way to access the Internet unless you have a Starlink net.

00:09:28.600 And everybody's...

00:09:29.340 Thank you, Elon Musk, by the way.

00:09:31.460 Oh, yes.

00:09:32.300 Thank you, Elon Musk.

00:09:33.460 President Donald Trump, we need you.

00:09:36.040 What are the...

00:09:36.660 Yes.

00:09:37.880 Love this guy.

00:09:38.840 This sheriff is a terrific character, just obviously helping out his community.

00:09:47.540 But the point he's making is absolutely correct.

00:09:49.720 How tone-deaf do you have to be?

00:09:55.040 How myopic, how oblivious do you have to be to say to people whose entire homes have just been blown away

00:10:04.440 that they need to get on their phone or get on their computer and request $750?

00:10:09.540 The $750 benefit is so insulting to American citizens as we just hand money out, catch a nickel, catch a dime to everyone around the world.

00:10:19.840 But to say, hey, yeah, hey, why don't you just get in your Tesla and drive over to the coffee shop

00:10:26.940 and then pull out your iPhone, devastated flood victims in the Carolinas, and then, you know, and just apply and get your money.

00:10:37.100 This is really, really playing poorly for Kamala.

00:10:41.260 And it's not...

00:10:42.280 The Democrats are going to say, oh, drats, just our luck.

00:10:45.020 Why do all the bad things happen to us that this extremely deadly, devastating hurricane had to happen on our watch?

00:10:52.380 But it didn't...

00:10:54.120 This didn't have to be catastrophic for Democrats.

00:10:57.880 Obviously, the real victims here are the people who had their livelihoods blown away or who lost their lives in the hurricane.

00:11:02.260 But even for the Democrats who were looking at this purely as a political matter, this didn't have to be that bad for them.

00:11:08.920 They could have just managed the crisis well.

00:11:12.260 I can't help but notice East Tennessee, which was hit with the hurricane, doing pretty well because there's good government in Tennessee.

00:11:20.140 North Carolina doing poorly, doing much worse.

00:11:24.240 Can't help but notice there's a Democrat governor in North Carolina.

00:11:28.440 The federal government here completely bungling it.

00:11:31.260 Makes the federal government's response to Katrina look absolutely unimpeachable.

00:11:40.740 The problem here is not that a natural disaster befell the Democrats in the lead up to the election.

00:11:47.440 The problem is that the natural disaster revealed the terrible government policies, the absolute incompetence of the president and administration.

00:11:56.200 The political problem for them is that the natural disaster revealed them to be who they really are.

00:12:01.900 There's so much more to say.

00:13:13.600 Now, you might say Kamala's handled the government in as much as she's involved in the Biden-Harris administration really terribly. 0.99

00:13:22.840 However, there is a professor at the University of Kansas who says that if you're a man who won't vote for Kamala Harris,

00:13:28.840 specifically because she's a woman, you should be shot. 1.00

00:13:31.720 Guys are smarter than girls. 0.98

00:13:34.080 You've got some serious problems.

00:13:37.680 That's what frustrates me.

00:13:39.640 There are going to be some males in our society that will refuse to vote for a potential female president 1.00

00:13:46.080 because they don't think females are smart enough to be president. 1.00

00:13:49.520 We could line all those guys up and shoot them.

00:13:52.560 They clearly don't understand the way the world works.

00:13:56.700 Did I say that?

00:13:58.580 Scratch that from the recording.

00:14:00.500 I don't want the deans hearing that I said that.

00:14:03.800 They heard it.

00:14:04.840 It came out.

00:14:05.580 Now, in fairness to this homicidal professor, this belligerently partisan homicidal professor,

00:14:13.000 he did not say if you're going to vote for Kamala, you should be shot.

00:14:17.600 He did not say even if you're a man who votes for Kamala, you should be shot.

00:14:20.740 He said if you're a man who will not vote for Kamala because she's a woman, you should be shot,

00:14:27.040 which is a horrible thing to say.

00:14:30.240 He certainly shouldn't be teaching students.

00:14:31.920 He certainly shouldn't be teaching students at a taxpayer-funded university.

00:14:35.500 He should get a new career, get a new job, work out his problems, educate himself a little bit.

00:14:41.780 But, you know, I'm not saying he needs to be ostracized from society,

00:14:45.020 but being a professor really is not for him, and he certainly should lose his job over this.

00:14:50.540 However, what of his point?

00:14:53.680 What of his narrow point that he actually made, without any hyperbole,

00:14:57.120 which is if you are a man who thinks a woman should not be president,

00:15:05.140 who will not vote for a woman simply because she's a woman, to be president, you should be shot. 1.00

00:15:13.700 What of the people who are voting for Kamala because she is a woman?

00:15:19.140 What about them?

00:15:20.080 There are many people, I don't know how many people total are going to vote for Kamala,

00:15:23.820 but there are many people who will vote for Kamala Harris

00:15:26.620 simply because she is a woman and they believe that a woman should be president. 1.00

00:15:31.320 Just like in 2008, there were people who voted for Barack Obama,

00:15:35.780 not because of anything Obama had ever done.

00:15:37.560 He really hadn't accomplished much of anything at all.

00:15:39.580 Not because of any opinion he held.

00:15:41.400 Barack Obama did a great job of hiding his opinions and avoiding taking controversial votes.

00:15:46.280 They voted for Obama simply and strictly because he's a black guy, or half black, I guess.

00:15:52.420 But black enough to suffice to say, we want a black president.

00:15:57.140 Now, some people will say, well, it's different.

00:15:59.220 In one case, you're voting for someone because of one of these qualities, their race or their sex.

00:16:04.640 And in the other example, you're voting against someone because of that person's qualities, race or sex.

00:16:10.080 And it's fine to do the former, it's bad to do the latter.

00:16:12.280 But they're actually the same thing.

00:16:14.580 If you're voting for Kamala because she's a woman, that means you're voting against Trump because he's a man.

00:16:19.260 So does this professor believe that anyone who votes for Kamala because she's a woman

00:16:23.300 and against Trump because he's not a woman, because he's a man, that those people should be shot?

00:16:27.380 No, certainly not.

00:16:29.780 Just as people who are voting for Barack Obama because he's black are implicitly but necessarily voting against John McCain because he's white,

00:16:38.880 should those people be lined up and shot?

00:16:41.100 No, are you kidding me?

00:16:42.160 If a professor ever said anything like that, it would be an international.

00:16:45.260 International, and you, you know, if you actually recorded that and publicized that, that would be an international incident.

00:16:54.480 So no, absolutely not.

00:16:57.860 Will this professor in this case face any consequences?

00:17:01.060 Also, probably not.

00:17:02.860 Now, speaking of killing, Sally Field, the actress.

00:17:07.960 Remember her?

00:17:08.320 She hasn't been in a lot lately, but she used to be a big actress. 1.00

00:17:10.800 Sally Field has just gone viral explaining the intense shame she felt as a result of an abortion she had decades ago

00:17:18.960 and then uses that experience, bizarrely, to convince people to vote for Kamala Harris.

00:17:28.040 I found out I was pregnant.

00:17:31.960 Luckily, I had a family doctor who was a friend of the family, and he drove me and his wife and my mother in their brand-new Cadillac to Tijuana.

00:17:47.620 I had no anesthetic.

00:17:50.700 There was a technician giving me a few puffs of ether, but he would then take it away, so it just made my arms and legs feel numb and weird.

00:17:59.880 But I felt everything, how much pain I was in.

00:18:03.080 And then I realized that the technician was actually molesting me.

00:18:07.140 So I had to figure out how can I make my arms move to push him away.

00:18:12.000 And, you know, so it was just, you know, this absolute pit of shame.

00:18:19.160 And then when it was finished, they said, go, go, go, go, go, like the building was on fire.

00:18:27.700 And they didn't want me there.

00:18:29.280 You know, it was illegal.

00:18:31.660 And fate, you know, something glorious outside of ourselves, whatever you believe, reached in.

00:18:40.920 And a few months after that, I began auditions.

00:18:43.960 I didn't have an agent.

00:18:45.240 I wasn't, you know, I wasn't really an actor.

00:18:48.720 I'd been doing it in high school constantly.

00:18:51.200 And I began auditioning.

00:18:53.200 And by the end of that year, I was Gidget.

00:18:56.340 By the end of that year, I was Gidget.

00:18:59.760 She says, but she felt this intense shame.

00:19:05.160 What was the shame?

00:19:07.280 Where did the shame come from?

00:19:10.000 That, to me, that is the key to this whole story.

00:19:13.320 Obviously, the experience she went through was traumatic.

00:19:18.440 But why was it traumatic?

00:19:21.720 She says it was traumatic because she felt everything.

00:19:24.520 She was awake the whole time.

00:19:26.120 She saw what was happening.

00:19:27.980 She felt what was happening.

00:19:30.100 At one point, she mentions that she had the impression that the technician was molesting her.

00:19:35.980 Which, I mean, obviously, the technician was in intimate areas killing her child.

00:19:43.120 So it may have appeared that way.

00:19:45.780 He may have actually been doing something, you know, additionally perverse.

00:19:51.200 The whole thing is obviously perverse.

00:19:52.500 But was even that, which is so horrifying, would that be the source of the shame?

00:19:58.100 There's nothing shameful about being the victim of a crime.

00:20:01.720 And even if it feels, you know, has all sorts of traumatic feelings associated with it at the time.

00:20:07.680 Certainly, in retrospect, you wouldn't say it's shameful to be the victim of a crime.

00:20:12.020 The shame obviously comes from the thing she was doing.

00:20:16.200 And she even says that.

00:20:17.980 It was the awareness of the thing that she was doing.

00:20:21.000 She couldn't even go to sleep and pretend like it wasn't happening.

00:20:25.120 She was conscious the whole time that she was killing her child.

00:20:30.000 That's where the shame comes from.

00:20:31.960 And that shame is the exact same whether the abortion is technically legal or officially illegal.

00:20:40.800 It's exactly the same.

00:20:43.860 This, this, she says, well, no, it was because we were in a dingy office in Mexico.

00:20:48.380 Abortion mills remain dingy and disgusting in dangerous places.

00:20:52.260 Think of Kermit Gosnell's abortion factory.

00:20:54.640 Well, you might not be able to think of it because it wasn't covered widely in the news.

00:20:57.620 This is probably the worst serial killer in American history.

00:21:00.580 Certainly one of them.

00:21:02.780 Filthy office, all sorts of disgusting procedures.

00:21:05.660 This woman talks about being potentially sexually molested. 1.00

00:21:09.700 These abortion mills regularly cover up human trafficking, sexual molestation, rape of underage girls, statutory rape. 0.94

00:21:20.680 Also, they regularly, I mean, there have been undercover videos that just within the last 10 years that have revealed this about multiple abortion mills.

00:21:27.800 So that doesn't distinguish this killing site in Mexico versus a killing site in America under the name Planned Parenthood.

00:21:37.880 The shame is from the abortion.

00:21:40.700 And then look at what she says.

00:21:42.340 Look immediately where her mind goes.

00:21:44.120 She goes, but then after I killed my child, fate came around and I became a famous actress.

00:21:50.200 Right, you sacrificed your child to a demon and then the thing for which you sacrificed your child, being able to smile on camera and have people applaud you in movie theaters, came true.

00:22:07.020 So yeah, you did get what you wanted.

00:22:10.520 Was that worth it?

00:22:11.540 It's the same, this is absolutely no different from pagan cultures sacrificing their infants to the rain gods so that there would be a good harvest.

00:22:21.100 And maybe you do get a good harvest, but it's not worth it.

00:22:24.940 There's still a shame that exists because the natural law is inscribed in every human heart.

00:22:30.080 And you know that it's wrong.

00:22:31.240 You know it's a violation of the moral law.

00:22:32.520 And you know that ends, no matter how good those ends are, never justify evil means.

00:22:38.840 And that shame stays with that woman decades later. 0.72

00:22:44.460 I guess that's what's so striking about it to me.

00:22:46.900 She doesn't, she can't bring herself to come to the conclusion that naturally flows from her narrative.

00:22:53.500 But she also can't ignore the shame.

00:22:55.760 You don't need to listen to me, a pro-lifer.

00:22:57.500 You don't need to listen to any number of right-wingers talk about the shame.

00:23:00.720 But she's telling you, even Sally Field, even the super left-wing actress who is presently campaigning for Kamala Harris, even she admits, yeah, this shame of killing my kid has stuck with me my whole life.

00:23:15.520 The shame, and it would seem, the regret.

00:23:18.100 There's so much more to say.

00:24:37.240 Speaking of bad things happening in Latin America, Haitian gangs are reportedly recruiting more child soldiers and child sex slaves. 0.99

00:24:49.260 According to Human Rights Watch, this is on Wednesday, Haitian gangs bolster their manpower by recruiting young boys as child soldiers and young girls as domestic slaves and sex slaves.

00:25:03.160 Quote, according to Human Rights Watch, hundreds if not thousands of children in Haiti driven by hunger and poverty have in recent months joined criminal groups where they're forced into illegal activities and face abuse.

00:25:14.760 Human Rights Watch points out there are no official figures available.

00:25:17.400 They're not great at record keeping down in the failed state of Haiti right now.

00:25:20.560 But Human Rights and Humanitarian Organizations and government officials estimate that at least 30% of criminal group members are children.

00:25:28.760 Children participate in criminal activities ranging from extortion and looting to severe acts of violence, including killing and kidnapping.

00:25:39.220 Really horrific stuff.

00:25:41.500 But there's one error in what Human Rights Watch is saying.

00:25:44.960 Human Rights Watch is saying that these horrible activities are being driven by hunger and poverty.

00:25:55.480 This is what the liberals believe.

00:25:57.960 The liberals believe that the causes of terrible things in the world, be it child soldiers or human trafficking or terrorism in the Middle East, that the cause of it is material.

00:26:13.040 It's because Afghanis don't have enough iPads. 1.00

00:26:17.080 It's because Barack Obama talked about this stuff during his presidential administration.

00:26:21.540 He said, you know, when people don't have jobs and they don't have iPhones, then they're going to be driven to extremism.

00:26:28.160 No, that isn't true.

00:26:29.640 That manifestly isn't true.

00:26:30.640 In the case of terrorism in the Middle East, the proof that that isn't true is that Osama bin Laden, the most famous terrorist maybe ever, certainly in recent centuries, came from one of the wealthiest families in the world.

00:26:41.840 The bin Laden family, it's worth billions and billions of dollars. 0.97

00:26:44.960 Osama bin Laden personally inherited $25 to $30 million.

00:26:48.400 That was decades ago.

00:26:51.060 The drivers of evil and the drivers of virtue, for that matter, are not primarily material.

00:27:00.160 They're not really material at all.

00:27:03.640 There are plenty of very virtuous poor people.

00:27:06.360 There are plenty of very vicious rich people.

00:27:08.000 There are other things going on here in Haiti.

00:27:11.860 Haiti has been a failed state, basically for its whole existence, ever since it was the first, ever since the revolution. 0.62

00:27:20.500 And it was the first successful, the only successful slave revolt, I think, ever in history. 0.57

00:27:25.040 But ever since then, it's just been a disaster in Haiti. 0.98

00:27:27.820 The most prominent religion practiced in Haiti is voodoo, people sacrificing animals to demons.

00:27:37.120 Okay, Haitians have been in the news lately because of these reports that they're creating all sorts of social problems in places like Springfield, Ohio. 0.99

00:27:44.580 So, you just read the story.

00:27:48.060 First thing you think, probably, as an American is, okay, if these Haitian gangs with reports of cannibalism throughout the country are recruiting child soldiers and little girl sex slaves, are these really the people we should be importing into our country? 0.99

00:28:02.580 Kamala Harris brought 300,000 of these people into our country.

00:28:05.380 Is that wise?

00:28:06.220 Is that prudent?

00:28:07.420 Is that going to – even – forget about protecting Americans, which Kamala Harris has no interest in doing. 0.99

00:28:12.280 Even if you want to just improve the lives of Haitians, is that really going to help Haiti?

00:28:16.960 In the long run, if you take 300,000 Haitians, you drop them into places like Springfield, Ohio. 1.00

00:28:22.260 In the long run, that doesn't improve the life of really any Haitians.

00:28:28.160 You consider all of the Haitians, generations past, present, and into the future.

00:28:32.140 That doesn't help Haitians, really. 0.97

00:28:33.740 The way to help Haiti is to fix Haiti. 1.00

00:28:36.880 I'm all for helping other countries there improve their own countries.

00:28:40.640 But you can't absorb every single country into the world.

00:28:44.920 You can't completely obliterate America's borders and remain America.

00:28:48.740 Then America just doesn't exist.

00:28:51.800 And you especially can't help any of these people by bringing them to our country or by going to help them in their countries.

00:28:58.120 You can't help any of them if you don't understand the real causes of these problems.

00:29:01.580 If you, like a big lib, following Marx's economics, think that everything basically is just material and that stuff is all that really matters in history.

00:29:11.180 If you try to fix that, then you're going to give a bunch of iPads to people who practice voodoo and their lives are not going to improve. 0.98

00:29:16.580 Not solving any problems seems to be a theme for Kamala Harris.

00:29:21.940 Now, speaking of people coming into our country, four illegal aliens have beaten a Texas woman, then robbed her at gunpoint, and then threatened to chop off her fingers if she didn't tell them where her valuables were.

00:29:37.360 Now, we know these guys, I'm sorry, four alleged illegal aliens.

00:29:43.860 This was in Dallas.

00:29:45.400 This raises a question about our immigration system.

00:29:49.680 It's not that that story is surprising.

00:29:53.240 This is not exactly a man-bites-dog story.

00:29:55.120 Illegal aliens do this to Americans in our country all the time. 1.00

00:29:59.420 But what's interesting about the story is what it says about the immigration system.

00:30:02.760 What's interesting about the story is that the story is not particularly newsworthy.

00:30:08.160 We expect stories like this.

00:30:10.060 We don't bat an eyelash, really, when these stories crop up.

00:30:13.140 Which brings us to the duck test.

00:30:16.500 If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it's probably a duck, right?

00:30:24.760 Let's apply the duck test to our immigration system. 0.96

00:30:27.940 We're told that our immigration system is supposed to keep people out of the country, people who aren't supposed to be here, and to allow some people in, but only in a way that will allow them to assimilate and become part of the great melting pot of America where diversities are strengthened, yada, yada, yada.

00:30:46.180 In reality, though, all these bad people keep getting in.

00:30:52.240 Millions and millions of people whom we are told are not supposed to be here just keep coming in.

00:31:00.180 This has been going on for years.

00:31:02.060 It's gotten particularly bad under the Biden-Harris administration with Kamala Harris as the borders are. 0.76

00:31:06.740 But this has been a problem going back decades that sometimes moderately improves under Republican administrations, but broadly, it's just, in the long run, it's gotten a lot worse.

00:31:14.660 Which means that the actual purpose of our immigration system is not to keep the bad people out and to keep Americans safe.

00:31:23.620 The purpose of our administration, of our immigration system, rather, is a managed invasion, a lightly managed invasion of our country, specifically across the southern border, but through other ports of entry, too.

00:31:40.380 That's it.

00:31:40.940 If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it's a duck, most likely.

00:31:47.160 If our immigration system doesn't do the things that it says it's supposed to do for 60 years now, and it does do all these other things that it's supposedly not supposed to do, then it's probably what it's actually doing is what it's for.

00:32:05.880 It's a duck, which means that the Democrats have one point.

00:32:12.020 The Democrats and the squishes have one point that a lot of conservatives don't want to grant them.

00:32:16.240 The liberals and the squishes, they say, we need comprehensive immigration reform. 0.99

00:32:22.060 The conservatives will say, we just need to shut down the border and build a wall.

00:32:25.820 And they'll say all sorts of things that we've tried to do and that manifestly don't work.

00:32:29.980 Not because walls don't work, but because our system simply will not allow the wall to be built.

00:32:36.520 Because our system simply will not keep the bad people out.

00:32:39.260 It just won't happen.

00:32:40.240 It hasn't happened for 60 years.

00:32:41.260 So when the liberals say, we need comprehensive immigration reform, they're right, actually.

00:32:47.260 Now, when the liberals say, we need comprehensive immigration reform, what they mean is, we need to let more people in.

00:32:53.380 We need to give amnesty to the people who are here.

00:32:56.280 We need to put the people who are here on a pathway to citizenship.

00:32:59.240 We need to, they say the reason our immigration system is broken and doesn't work is because we've only taken in millions and millions of people instead of millions and millions and millions of people.

00:33:09.500 They want more.

00:33:12.420 But we do need the comprehensive immigration reform because the system is not achieving and has not been able to and probably will never achieve what it's supposed to do.

00:33:22.300 So any reform, and I think conservatives should keep this in their minds, any comprehensive immigration reform that would increase the number of migrants that we accept is completely unacceptable. 0.94

00:33:35.120 Any comprehensive immigration reform that would grant amnesty to the illegal aliens already here, completely unacceptable, dead on arrival. 0.88

00:33:43.520 Kamala Harris loves talking about how Trump impelled members of the House of Representatives to kill a great comprehensive immigration bill.

00:33:50.220 Right.

00:33:50.680 Trump did do that.

00:33:51.720 That's completely correct.

00:33:53.340 Trump killed a Democrat immigration bill because the Democrat immigration bill would have made the migration problem worse.

00:33:59.340 In principle, the Democrat administration, Biden and Harris, with Harris as the borders are, at any moment could curtail immigration easily.

00:34:12.820 That's the law of the land today.

00:34:15.060 The Biden-Harris administration, with Harris as the borders are, is not enforcing the law, which is one reason that Republican congressmen pointed out and Trump pointed out.

00:34:24.760 You don't need a new law.

00:34:25.860 You already have the laws, and you're not enforcing the laws that are already on the books, so why should I trust you to enforce any future law?

00:34:30.920 You guys are like Lucy with the football, you Democrats, and he's totally right about that.

00:34:36.580 But furthermore, the supposed comprehensive immigration reform that the Democrats were proposing would have made the problem worse.

00:34:43.040 It would have caused more illegal aliens to get into the country. 0.99

00:34:46.920 So that's obviously dead on arrival.

00:34:49.500 But we have to change the way we think about this.

00:34:51.320 We can't just keep putting our heads in the sand and say, well, no, we just need to get, we just really need to be serious about the border.

00:34:57.640 We just need to build the wall a little bit higher.

00:34:59.460 No, no, it doesn't, the system doesn't work that way.

00:35:02.120 This goes back to the Hart-Celler Act of 1965.

00:35:05.480 Goes back to the last time we had comprehensive immigration reform.

00:35:09.240 No little working around the edges is going to overcome that.

00:35:12.900 The vast majority of Americans, when you phrase the question in a way that isn't partisan, tell you that they want to drastically reduce all immigration, legal and illegal.

00:35:23.300 So we got to do that.

00:35:24.640 Good.

00:35:25.000 Let's have comprehensive reform.

00:35:26.280 Let's give the people what they want.

00:35:27.300 Let's drastically reduce the number of migrants. 1.00

00:35:29.220 I mentioned yesterday on the show, there was this Afghani national who just got caught trying to plan a terror attack for election day.

00:35:37.960 And I asked, I said, how'd this guy end up in the country?

00:35:41.280 How'd this guy, Nasir Ahmad, Talwadi, whatever his name is, how did he end up in Oklahoma?

00:35:46.280 That's not exactly a traditional Oklahoman name.

00:35:49.440 Well, we have our answer now.

00:35:50.520 Talwadi, quote, entered the United States on September 9th, 2021, on a special immigrant visa and is currently on parole status pending adjudication of his immigration proceedings.

00:36:02.140 Okay, Biden and Harris brought him over.

00:36:03.560 That's how he's here.

00:36:05.360 He shouldn't be here.

00:36:06.640 Biden and Harris brought him over.

00:36:07.620 And why did Biden and Harris bring him over?

00:36:09.020 Because the Biden-Harris administration completely bungled the American pullout of Afghanistan and gave the country back to the Taliban after 20 years of American fighting.

00:36:17.280 That's why.

00:36:18.520 He was here intentionally.

00:36:19.940 It was a direct consequence of the Biden-Harris policy.

00:36:23.900 And don't try to just pin Afghanistan on Biden.

00:36:26.880 Kamala Harris has bragged.

00:36:27.800 She was the last person in the room when Biden decided on his plan to pull out of Afghanistan.

00:36:34.500 Complete, complete disaster.

00:36:38.040 Directly attributable to Kamala Harris.

00:36:41.380 Over the past two years, the Daily Wire, you know, has collaborated with Dr. Jordan B. Peterson on a collection of groundbreaking series,

00:37:21.060 My favorite comment yesterday is from Steve Kilgore at 27, who says,

00:37:27.680 As a reminder, take your elderly relatives slash grandparents to the polls. 0.94

00:37:31.380 Make a day out of it.

00:37:32.840 Take them out to lunch and then go vote.

00:37:34.900 It'll be a great way to connect with them while saving this country.

00:37:37.840 That's a great point.

00:37:39.880 However, please don't take your dead relatives out to the polls because your dead relatives are guaranteed to vote for Kamala.

00:37:47.320 So make sure it's, your grandparents is good, but make sure they're on the side of living.

00:37:51.260 Because then I think they're going to be more likely to vote for Trump.

00:37:55.900 Speaking of systems and Democrat radicalism, Politico is reporting that Tim Walls, Kamala Harris' running mate,

00:38:04.140 has just insisted upon an extraordinarily radical policy, which is to abolish the Electoral College.

00:38:12.780 This is something Democrats have kicked around in recent years.

00:38:15.320 It's not exactly new, but it is radical.

00:38:17.380 It would be a rewriting of our Constitution.

00:38:19.120 Some would say it's a threat and an attempt to overthrow our sacred democracy.

00:38:25.180 Tim Walls, according to Politico, said,

00:38:27.680 I think all of us know the Electoral College needs to go because I'm a big, stupid, dumb, idiot knucklehead.

00:38:32.500 No, he didn't say the last part, but he has reaffirmed the knucklehead thing, but in separate interviews.

00:38:37.240 Here he just said, I think all of us know the Electoral College needs to go.

00:38:40.940 We need a national popular vote that is something, but that's not the world we live in.

00:38:45.580 Do we all know that?

00:38:50.640 I don't know that.

00:38:52.460 I don't think so.

00:38:53.260 I don't think we need a national popular vote.

00:38:56.240 That is not the world we live in.

00:38:57.360 I don't think we need one of those.

00:38:58.740 I don't think all of us know the Electoral College needs to go.

00:39:01.020 Because I read the founders of our country, and I read the framers of the Constitution,

00:39:05.420 and they make really good arguments as to why we have an Electoral College in the first place.

00:39:09.800 And then I look at how polities have fared over the centuries and the millennia,

00:39:17.040 and I notice that radical democracies tend not to fare very well.

00:39:23.000 And this is actually the reason that our framers gave us a country that is more of a mixed system.

00:39:27.900 So it's got a democratic element, but it's also got an aristocratic element.

00:39:31.280 It even has a kind of monarchical element.

00:39:33.620 And it has a separation and balance of powers.

00:39:36.800 And it sounds to me for all this talk about the threat to our sacred constitution

00:39:41.320 and our sacred democracy and all the rest,

00:39:43.860 that really the threat is coming from people like Tim Walz and Kamala Harris and the Democrats.

00:39:48.300 Why do we have an Electoral College?

00:39:50.340 An Electoral College is a protection against the tyranny of the majority.

00:39:55.320 The Electoral College is a protection against civil war, okay?

00:40:01.380 If we get rid of the Electoral College, that's going to— 0.61

00:40:05.320 I'm not even convinced that Republicans couldn't win in that situation.

00:40:10.640 Democrats sometimes make that claim as a kind of cope to delegitimize their opponent's victory,

00:40:18.260 to deny the results of the election in a generic way.

00:40:22.340 Because if there were no Electoral College, campaigning would just be totally different.

00:40:27.860 If there were no Electoral College, Trump would spend all of his time in New York and Chicago and Los Angeles and San Francisco,

00:40:34.880 or places that he would never visit now or would minimize his visits to now

00:40:41.540 because he's not going to win the state of New York.

00:40:43.200 He's not going to win the state of California.

00:40:44.860 He's not going to win the state of Illinois.

00:40:46.100 So if the rules were different, yeah, people would play the game differently.

00:40:48.600 And it might well be the case that Republicans would win even in that system.

00:40:52.840 But part of the reason that system's not fair is we don't want just three liberal cities to decide who the president is.

00:40:58.720 And it's actually a protection not only for justice, for our particular system of government.

00:41:05.480 It's a protection against civil war.

00:41:06.960 One of the reasons that the South seceded in the lead-up to the Civil War is because they had no effect on the presidential election.

00:41:18.820 They could see that their political power was totally disappearing.

00:41:23.440 Because Lincoln didn't even really ballot in the southern states in the 1960 election.

00:41:29.560 It's not that Lincoln didn't appear on the ballot because the elections were just conducted differently than they are today,

00:41:36.040 and the parties were the ones that provided the ballots.

00:41:37.640 But the South uniformly could not vote for Abraham Lincoln, and he could become the president.

00:41:42.860 Well, okay, now the South has no political power whatsoever.

00:41:46.280 So think about what happens if you get rid of the electoral college.

00:41:49.320 You get a much more egregious version of that situation where a handful of cities pick the president,

00:41:54.680 and then the rest of America, the vast majority of the rest of—basically, statistically, the entire geography of America has no say in it whatsoever.

00:42:05.560 Furthermore, one last defense of the electoral college, the electoral college also reduces the opportunity and the effect of election fraud.

00:42:16.040 Because you might have some crooked machines there in Philadelphia or maybe in New York or Los Angeles or certainly in Chicago,

00:42:22.140 but it's not going to have this outsized effect because it doesn't matter how many ballots some hypothetical Democrat machine boss can manufacture in Chicago, 0.99

00:42:31.300 Illinois only has so many electoral votes.

00:42:34.400 Democrats have done a pretty good job of rigging the electoral college because illegal aliens are counted for purposes of representation in Congress,

00:42:42.840 and the electoral college is based on the number of representatives.

00:42:46.240 So they've actually done a good job by flooding the country with foreign nationals into their states. 1.00

00:42:50.460 Democrats, they've done a pretty good job of helping themselves out.

00:42:54.840 However, even so, the electoral college provides a pretty good ballast against election fraud.

00:42:59.860 But of course, the Democrats don't want any protections against election fraud.

00:43:03.900 They want to commit it.

00:43:05.380 Speaking of disreputable men around Kamala Harris,

00:43:07.880 The Daily Mail has a new exclusive, a new scandal involving the second gentleman and would-be first gentleman,

00:43:17.460 not much of a gentleman if you ask me, Doug Emhoff.

00:43:21.360 Headline exclusive, Kamala Harris' husband Doug Emhoff faces explosive new allegations from his time at a top LA law firm.

00:43:29.660 I won't take you through all of the allegations here, but it's basically that when he was a bigwig at a big corporate law firm,

00:43:39.000 he was nasty to the women, and he would pick his secretaries based on how hot they were, 1.00

00:43:44.540 and he would reward female employees if they would flirt with him,

00:43:49.100 and he would punish them if they didn't flirt with him,

00:43:52.100 and he was just kind of a pig, basically. 0.61

00:43:54.180 He was nasty.

00:43:54.840 He would yell expletives at women and all that kind of stuff.

00:43:58.040 Again, I don't know if any of these allegations are true.

00:44:02.560 I'm just reading the reporting here.

00:44:07.840 But I can't help but notice it does sound in character for him,

00:44:11.900 because the previous allegation that we heard just a week or so ago

00:44:15.920 was that Doug Emhoff smacked his girlfriend around in public

00:44:20.960 because he was jealous that she might have flirted with a valet attendant or something.

00:44:26.720 And this was attested to by multiple witnesses, albeit anonymous.

00:44:31.700 Then before that, the allegation was that Doug Emhoff, when he was married the first time around,

00:44:37.920 knocked up his nanny, and then the nanny never gave birth, 0.92

00:44:41.360 which leads to all other sorts of questions and awful conclusions the one might draw.

00:44:47.420 So this wouldn't exactly be out of character for him.

00:44:50.280 And my point isn't even to knock Doug Emhoff.

00:44:53.840 I don't care that much about Doug Emhoff as a political matter.

00:44:57.560 Why is there so little reporting of this?

00:44:59.760 If you listen to this show, you might have heard the allegations against Emhoff.

00:45:03.280 But if you are the kind of person who just watches the nightly news or only reads the New York Times,

00:45:07.400 you probably haven't heard much about this at all.

00:45:10.660 And isn't that so shocking?

00:45:13.640 It's really not shocking to me, because this is the same thing they did with Bill Clinton.

00:45:16.340 You had the feminists from the 70s to the 80s to the 90s. 1.00

00:45:19.800 The 90s was kind of peak feminism. 1.00

00:45:22.880 Talking about, I am woman, hear me roar.

00:45:25.220 Woman needs a man like a fish, needs a bicycle. 1.00

00:45:27.060 Enough of these pigs, down with the patriarchy. 1.00

00:45:29.080 And then the Democrats nominate Bubba Bill Clinton,

00:45:32.340 this guy who never met a woman he didn't lust over.

00:45:36.240 This guy who was accused of rape by Juanita Broderick.

00:45:40.200 This guy who, I think it's been proven without a question,

00:45:45.960 has been a huge pig when it comes to women. 0.56

00:45:48.300 And was an unrepentant pig when it comes to women.

00:45:50.960 And the feminists all got in line. 1.00

00:45:52.620 They all got in line for this guy.

00:45:55.620 Now we've had a repeat of this with the Me Too movement.

00:45:59.700 Remember the Me Too movement?

00:46:00.860 Time's up.

00:46:01.480 Enough is enough.

00:46:02.920 And it was this PR movement out of Hollywood,

00:46:04.840 where basically all these liberal Democrat guys,

00:46:08.160 guys like Doug Emhoff,

00:46:09.300 were doing horrible things to women,

00:46:11.380 terribly selfish and abusive things.

00:46:13.580 Even if they weren't illegal, they were nasty and disgusting.

00:46:16.120 In some cases, they were illegal.

00:46:17.640 And the women said, enough is enough. 0.71

00:46:19.420 And all those women are going to vote for Kamala Harris 1.00

00:46:22.280 and her husband, Doug Emhoff,

00:46:24.660 who knocked up the nanny,

00:46:26.200 who was accused of beating his girlfriend in public,

00:46:28.480 and who apparently was exactly the kind of pig

00:46:31.780 that they pretend to invade against.

00:46:33.280 It's all just fake.

00:46:36.500 The whole thing.

00:46:37.240 It's why I have absolutely no quarter for the Me Too movement, 0.98

00:46:40.080 for the feminism of Gloria Steinem

00:46:43.880 and all the kind of people who backed Bubba Clinton.

00:46:47.820 Yet again, I have not been able to get

00:46:50.760 to that really important story among celebrity women,

00:46:54.840 the salmon sperm facials.

00:46:56.700 Maybe that's a good thing.

00:46:57.580 Maybe we just don't have to get to that story.

00:46:59.260 Maybe I'll try to avoid it.

00:47:00.100 But it could come up tomorrow.

00:47:01.140 Now we've got something much more important

00:47:02.720 about how to have a good family,

00:47:05.420 how to have good relations between the sexes,

00:47:07.120 how to have a good society with one of my good friends,

00:47:11.440 the Hungarian ambassador to the Holy See,

00:47:13.940 Archduke Edward Habsburg.
