Every protocol, every precaution, every move coordinated.
00:00:05.260
This new film takes you inside the 20 days leading up to the 2025 presidential election
00:00:10.760
The briefings, the planning, the private conversations.
00:00:12.880
Witness what it takes to secure her return to one of the world's most powerful roles.
00:00:20.600
Nicki Minaj is debuting $1,000 baby bonus accounts with President Trump.
00:00:24.500
Bruce Springsteen just released a pseudo-60s protest song exalting Renee Good and Alex
00:00:31.300
And speaking of Alex Preddy, new video emerges of Mr. Preddy spitting on cops and smashing
00:00:37.600
their vehicles weeks before he was killed after starting another altercation with law enforcement,
00:00:43.260
which leads to a conclusion that I haven't seen anyone else point out yet, but it's a
00:00:48.220
If the cops had just arrested him and locked him up for the crimes that he was committing
00:00:55.040
two weeks ago, Alex Preddy would be alive today.
00:00:58.580
I'm Michael Knowles, this is the Michael Knowles Show.
00:01:20.600
A candidate in Ohio for attorney general, a Democrat, is running on the platform of killing
00:01:26.700
Donald Trump, of literally killing Donald Trump.
00:01:29.420
We will get to what that means for all of us in a moment.
00:01:37.000
We are here, can you believe it, almost at Lent.
00:01:40.640
I still have my Christmas decorations up because we're not quite at Candlemas yet, but then
00:01:45.160
Beginning this Ash Wednesday, our sponsor, Halo, is inviting you to take Lent seriously
00:01:49.980
with Pray 40, the return, a 40-day journey of daily prayer leading up to Easter featuring
00:01:55.120
Jonathan Rumi, Father Mike Schmitz, Sister Miriam James, Jeff Cavins, Mark Wahlberg, Chris
00:02:00.800
Lent is the church's annual reminder that self-mastery matters, that virtue requires discipline, and
00:02:05.960
that becoming who God intends us to be means removing the things, habits, distractions, comforts
00:02:12.160
Through prayer, fasting, and self-giving, we make room for God's mercy, grace, and love
00:02:18.820
At the center of Pray 40, the return is one of the most profound stories ever told, the
00:02:25.220
A reminder that no matter how far someone falls, redemption remains possible.
00:02:28.920
This year's challenge also draws inspiration from the Brothers Karamazov, a serious meditation
00:02:33.320
on belief and doubt, guilt and forgiveness, and the moral responsibility we bear toward one
00:02:37.900
Throughout Lent, Jonathan Rumi and Sister Miriam James will guide daily prayer and meditation.
00:02:42.920
Fridays include fasting challenges, and Saturdays feature thoughtful faith conversations.
00:02:47.160
Sundays bring homilies from Father Mike Schmitz.
00:03:06.820
I am still not exactly back to normal because half of Nashville just about still has their
00:03:13.860
However, I'm very glad at least we got power at the Daily Wire offices.
00:03:19.580
It's nice to finally be back around my Christmas decorations.
00:03:22.700
Wild to think that my Christmas decorations will only be up for another three or four days.
00:03:27.220
It's amazing how fast the Christmas season flies by.
00:03:32.220
Nashville is still Mad Max, but nature is healing.
00:03:35.860
And I guess that's of a piece with what's going on around the country.
00:03:40.440
Nature is enacting here in Nashville what lunatics are enacting on the streets of Minneapolis.
00:03:48.480
After one of these incidents that the left wants to make a cause celeb,
00:03:52.920
especially officer-involved killings, officer-involved shootings,
00:03:59.420
Did Renee Good's tire turn exactly eight micrometers to the left?
00:04:07.880
Did Alex Brady, was his gun in his waistband or was it slightly out of his waistband?
00:04:12.200
Was, well, here is a much more relevant video, frankly, than any of those Monday morning
00:04:18.880
quarterbacks going over all the footage to see exactly frame by frame when the cop could
00:04:23.600
have shot, which is frankly irrelevant to the actual case.
00:04:28.040
Here's a video from a couple weeks earlier, reportedly, purportedly, of Alex Preddy harassing
00:04:35.800
federal agents, screaming at them, spitting on them, and smashing in one of their car rear lights.
00:04:42.080
This is a moment the news movement filmed on January 13th in Minneapolis, showing a man
00:04:49.060
who appears to be Alex Preddy interacting with federal immigration agents 11 days before
00:04:57.140
Our footage was analyzed by the BBC, whose facial recognition technology confirmed his
00:05:05.120
On the morning of January 13th, our team received a tip that federal agents were blocking a street
00:05:12.620
at the corner of East 36 and Park Avenue in Minneapolis.
00:05:19.500
We saw observers shouting at the agents as they walked back to their vehicles.
00:05:23.740
When they started driving away, the man kicked their taillight.
00:05:27.720
An agent then got out of the vehicle, grabbed him, and pushed him to the ground.
00:05:31.560
Okay, so we don't know for certain if this is him.
00:05:40.480
This is from the news movement, I think, is the source here.
00:05:44.080
Now, in the age of AI, you can never trust any video at all anymore.
00:05:47.240
But we do know that Alex Preddy had been going out and harassing law enforcement before this.
00:05:51.940
We know he had a conversation with his parents about this.
00:05:54.160
His parents warned him to be careful not to become aggressive to the agents.
00:06:02.960
And he was, in fact, doing the same sort of stuff he was doing the day he was shot a couple of weeks prior.
00:06:08.860
Spitting on federal officers, kicking in the rear light of their car,
00:06:15.780
just behaving like a general nuisance, anarchist, lunatic.
00:06:22.440
But what's amazing, and I haven't seen a lot of people point out,
00:06:29.680
had Alex Preddy just been arrested and locked up for those multiple criminal actions that are in that videotape,
00:06:39.240
And this is the lesson from all these kinds of riots, not just after Renee Good or before Renee Good because of the ice raids,
00:06:47.960
not even just George Floyd, all of them, all of these kinds of riots.
00:06:52.580
If the law were enforced on the smaller matters, the bigger tragedies, the greater sad incidents would never come about.
00:07:05.940
This is why I mentioned, I think it was on the show yesterday,
00:07:08.560
I said the most charitable thing we can do for these people is to lock them up.
00:07:13.520
The most charitable thing we can do for these people who are engaging in such disordered behaviors,
00:07:17.880
blocking traffic, endangering their children in order to protect face-tattooed rapists from Venezuela in the middle of Minneapolis.
00:07:26.420
The most charitable thing we can do for these people is to arrest them and lock them up.
00:07:33.620
They don't seem to have a particularly strong grasp on reality, and they're breaking a lot of laws.
00:07:40.840
And when you don't enforce the law on the smaller matters,
00:07:44.820
by the way, I don't think spitting on federal officers and then kicking in their taillights,
00:07:48.560
I don't think that's exactly a small matter, but it's a relatively small matter compared to,
00:07:54.480
I don't know, taking a swing at a cop, pulling a gun on a cop, driving an SUV into a cop.
00:08:01.740
you wouldn't have to get into those provocative situations on the big matters.
00:08:07.060
I've pointed out since the Renee Good shooting and obviously Alex Preddy,
00:08:12.980
it's sad, it makes me sad that these people put themselves in this position.
00:08:21.380
In both cases, the cops were totally in the right.
00:08:25.120
They made a thousand bad decisions in the lead up to putting themselves in that position,
00:08:28.900
where the main thing they could have expected was to be shot in the face.
00:08:35.020
If you are on the side of losing sleep every night because these people who were either threatening
00:08:42.240
or driving their SUVs into federal agents were shot,
00:08:45.020
if you're one of these people who's really upset about this,
00:08:47.800
there was only one thing that could have happened that would have stopped them from being killed.
00:08:51.700
And that is if the federal agents were able to enforce the law,
00:08:58.100
if local police were allowed to enforce the law in a more rigorous way early on.
00:09:04.440
Had Renee Good not been allowed to park her car in the middle of the street,
00:09:08.080
had these mobs not been allowed to just sit around and try to protect face-tattooed gangsters,
00:09:13.820
you wouldn't have been in this situation in the first place.
00:09:15.840
Now, this is not stopping the libs from trying to make these two people,
00:09:20.340
Renee Good and Alex Preddy, the cause celeb, the George Floyd of 2026.
00:09:26.680
Bruce Springsteen can always count on him as lib as they come,
00:09:31.560
as quick as they come to capitalize on major news events.
00:09:37.080
Bruce Springsteen, he came out with that album, The Rising, right after 9-11.
00:09:40.980
Now he's got a protest song, Streets of Minneapolis, about the two lefties who were shot.
00:10:53.740
Somalis deserve all your taxpayer dollars to send to Al-Shabaab.
00:11:01.440
Okay, so sorry, I know you didn't get to hear those words here at the end.
00:11:06.260
The final verse is, and two dead left to die on snow-filled streets, Alex Preddy and Rene Goode.
00:11:14.240
No one should be paying this song as much attention as I am paying it, but I don't know, I can't resist.
00:11:17.840
The thing about Springsteen is when it comes to the 60s folk protest character, he's a fraud.
00:11:58.320
Down Nicolette Avenue, a city of flame fought fire and ice.
00:12:11.140
Because what he's referring to is federal officers.
00:12:15.700
So the first thing that's really funny is right off the bat, the way he's framing this,
00:12:23.740
I mean, I guess maybe not with the winter's ice.
00:12:25.820
Some parts of the South get pretty chilly, including Nashville.
00:12:28.460
He's launching it from the beginning from the perspective of a Confederate who's seceded from the Union.
00:12:35.080
I mean, this could just as easily be a song about the war of Northern aggression and the tyrant Abraham Lincoln.
00:12:42.880
To call the federal agents occupiers is to say that the federal government has no place in Minnesota,
00:12:47.740
which is to say that Minnesota has seceded or is leading an insurrection against the United States, which they are.
00:12:54.480
But it's amazing that Bruce Springsteen would admit it.
00:12:57.040
Then he says, King Trump's, that's like so boomer.
00:13:00.280
It's so, the no, the no Kings protest is the boomiest, cringiest political movement, if you can call it that, in my lifetime.
00:13:14.940
King Trump's private army, private army from the DHS.
00:13:20.420
The DHS is, stands for the Department of Homeland Security, the department being a department of the federal government.
00:13:31.020
So say what you will, you might not, look, you, I guess Bruce Springsteen doesn't like the federal government now.
00:13:36.620
He liked the federal government a year ago when it was being run by his party, but now he doesn't like the federal government.
00:13:41.000
Whatever you think about it, though, you can't call it a private army.
00:13:51.720
So, again, Bruce Springsteen, you know, not a, not a ton of brain cells banging around in there between the ears.
00:13:59.160
Guns belted to their coats, came to Minneapolis to enforce the law, or so their story goes.
00:14:16.180
Are they there to, I don't know, commit insider trading?
00:14:20.100
Are they, what are you, are they there to get an ice cream cone?
00:14:25.400
So their story, are you saying that the law is not the law?
00:14:27.920
Are you saying that removing illegal aliens from the country is not part of the law?
00:14:36.520
And I think this is part of the narrative confusion over Minneapolis for the left broadly.
00:14:39.680
Is the, are the federal agents occupiers from a distant government or are they a private army?
00:14:50.640
Then, all right, just one more, just one more stance.
00:14:53.440
Again, smoke and rubber bullets in dawn's early light.
00:15:01.520
Federal agents have come in to remove foreign criminals who have no right to be in this country.
00:15:07.460
Is your argument, is Bruce Springsteen's argument actually that the face tattooed gangsters do have a right to be in the country?
00:15:16.660
Or that it is just, the people that DHS is arresting, by the way, are like wife beaters, murderers, rapists.
00:15:23.600
Is the argument, forget the fact that they're foreign.
00:15:26.540
Is the argument that murderers and rapists and drug dealers and wife beaters shouldn't even be arrested?
00:15:37.940
By what, driving their SUVs into cops and kicking in their taillights?
00:15:41.760
Their voices ringing through the night and there were bloody footprints where mercy should have stood.
00:15:48.380
Mercy, is his argument that it would have been merciful to let Renee Goode run over the cop?
00:15:53.600
Is his argument that it would have been merciful to let that lunatic Alex Preddy pull a gun out?
00:15:59.460
A gun with two magazines, a gun that he apparently never carried before as he was picking fights with cops?
00:16:08.040
And two dead left to die in the snow-filled streets, Alex Preddy and Renee Goode.
00:16:12.700
And part of the reason they died is because of propaganda like this that poisoned their brains and convinced them that reality is not what it is.
00:16:26.280
They're trying, as I said, they're trying so, so hard because they knew that the Summer of Love worked for them in 2020.
00:16:32.800
They knew that in the year of R. Floyd, they knew that those BLM riots worked for them politically.
00:16:37.000
So they're doing everything they can to bring it about again.
00:16:40.360
That's why you had Tim Walz there from behind his iron gate.
00:16:44.780
Hey, make sure you guys go out there and pick fights with federal agents.
00:16:47.780
Some of you are probably going to get shot in the face, but it'll help me politically, and then I won't have to worry as much about my fraud scandal.
00:16:57.180
So you have Tim Walz doing that from the governor's mansion, Jacob Fry from the mayor's office, and then Bruce Springsteen from the pop culture.
00:17:05.480
Okay, but, you know, it doesn't take a PhD in literary criticism to go through these words and realize it doesn't make sense.
00:17:13.940
It doesn't make a lot of sense, and I don't think it's totally going to resonate, and we have some polling on that, actually, that backs that up.
00:17:20.060
First of all, I want to tell you about Preborn.
00:17:23.420
There is new research that reveals something truly heartbreaking.
00:17:26.540
More than 7 million American women are dealing with severe, long-lasting emotional pain after having an abortion.
00:17:32.420
Grief, flashbacks, a deep regret that for many never really goes away.
00:17:36.960
Our sponsors at Preborn see this suffering up close every day in the thousands of clinics they support across the country.
00:17:47.740
When a woman sees her baby on an ultrasound, everything shifts.
00:17:53.420
For just $28, you can sponsor that ultrasound and potentially change a life forever.
00:17:58.280
This is what genuine health care looks like inside Preborn's network of clinics.
00:18:02.140
They are on the front lines providing free ultrasounds, compassionate counseling, and faith-based support to young mothers facing incredibly difficult decisions.
00:18:20.000
Or go to preborn.com slash Knowles, K-N-W-L-E-S.
00:18:26.840
Speaking of Tim Walls, by the way, Tim Walls just went on Anderson Cooper's show on CNN.
00:18:30.360
And boy, oh boy, did he change his tune on the federal government in Minneapolis.
00:18:36.580
First of all, the meeting with Tom Holman, how did that go?
00:18:39.980
Well, Tom Holman's a professional, which is a lot more than Bovino and Christy Noem.
00:18:46.020
But look, I think the thing we said is we're very clear about this, that we need these folks out of Minnesota.
00:18:52.420
And we need justice for Renee Good and for Alex.
00:19:01.340
Well, I sat down with Tom Holman, who's the, is that, I don't know, it's not a perfect Tim Walls, but I think it does capture something about the man.
00:19:08.260
Says, yeah, I sat down with him and he's a professional.
00:19:11.600
Hold on, you're telling me the face of Trump's deportations, he's a professional, I can work with this guy, yeah.
00:19:23.320
So they're trying to make this guy, Greg Bovino, who was the commander at large of Border Patrol, they're trying to make him the fall guy for all of this.
00:19:29.120
That's what Walls is desperate to make seem like the big concession.
00:19:32.580
But it's kind of silly to say that's the big concession that Walls won something here.
00:19:35.860
Because, okay, you reassign Greg Bovino and you bring in the guy who is even more closely associated with mass deportations.
00:19:43.080
He says, yeah, and Holman's a lot better than Christy Noem.
00:19:46.540
All right, Christy Noem's still the head of DHS.
00:19:50.660
Yeah, we've been clear, we need ICE to leave Minneapolis.
00:19:55.320
Actually, like, the face of it just showed up, just came to Minneapolis.
00:20:02.160
At the end of all of your wheeling and dealing, you had the face of ICE travel to Minneapolis to keep it up.
00:20:19.400
This guy was 1863 posting, like, a week and a half ago.
00:20:23.020
This guy was threatening to call up Minnesota National Guard to fight federal agents.
00:20:31.520
And now all of a sudden, oh, I really like Tom Holman.
00:20:36.040
And yeah, I want, I mean, I don't, obviously, I don't want any of the deportations.
00:20:45.820
I don't know if it pertained to the Insurrection Act.
00:20:49.900
I don't know if it pertained to the financial fraud and crimes that Tim Walls allegedly seems to have apparently been involved in.
00:20:57.300
Whatever it is, though, scared that guy straight.
00:20:59.640
And it is real hard to scare Tim Walls straight.
00:21:03.320
Turning Tim, scaring Tim Walls straight is a real tough thing to do.
00:21:06.980
Okay, so how is Trump playing with the rest of the country?
00:21:10.100
According to Rasmussen, we're all waiting because you hear the left and then the panic hands.
00:21:17.820
Trump needs to, he doesn't, we need to think about the optics in Minnesota.
00:21:21.600
And Americans support Trump's deportations by plus 10 points.
00:21:28.120
Trump's support among Hispanics is going up right now.
00:21:32.920
And then among Americans broadly, support for deportations is now plus 10.
00:21:39.360
Now, what's a little weird about these numbers is, okay, you got plus 10.
00:21:47.940
And yet 55% of voters favor removing ICE agents from Minnesota.
00:21:56.220
Trump's base wants to keep the ICE agents in Minnesota, 68 to 29.
00:22:01.160
But the traditional GOP, whatever that is, I guess like Mitt Romney types, they favor withdrawing ICE, 47 to 39.
00:22:11.960
What it means is Americans love the mass deportations in the abstract, but they get the feels sometimes when they see the pictures.
00:22:25.940
They want to get rid of these people, mass deportations, including Abuela, but especially the face-tattooed gangsters.
00:22:40.020
Well, Trump has already dipped his toe into this, more than dipped his toe into this.
00:22:42.960
But it bears repeating because it is an important part of the strategy.
00:22:46.840
In order to, because you don't have to win Americans over on the point of mass deportations right now, you're in a better position.
00:22:54.240
What you have to do is just present good pictures to people to make them feel good about the thing that they already agree with with their intellect.
00:23:05.740
This is why Bukele, when he was rounding up all of the gangsters, he didn't just round them up and say, okay, you know, I've put them into prison now.
00:23:13.940
And they're going to, you know, have their due process.
00:23:16.260
No, no, he made these videos of them with all their crazy tattoos looking like a bunch of demon bugs.
00:23:21.840
And he was running them around and, like, whipping them.
00:23:28.520
If you were a guy with face tattoos, you would have been.
00:23:47.580
No one's going to feel bad for the guys with the face tattoos.
00:23:51.620
And, again, listen, I'm not knocking all guys with face tattoos.
00:23:57.660
The Bruce Springsteens of the world are going to pretend that ICE is showing up in Minneapolis to slaughter.
00:24:05.200
That wonderful nurse, Alex Preddy, never had a harsh word to say about anybody.
00:24:10.700
Definitely never spit on federal agents and kicked in their taillights.
00:24:13.600
Definitely never put himself in a bad situation.
00:24:25.240
She drove a car into a cop, but she wasn't even mad.
00:24:35.460
I'm not even saying Alex Preddy and Renee Good are like the worst of the worst.
00:24:38.500
They were deeply confused people who made tons of bad decisions.
00:24:55.400
Abdi the financial criminal who funded al-Shabaab with taxpayer dollars.
00:25:06.960
Now, you know who else likes Trump beyond most Americans on most policies?

Because they believe wireless service should only cost you a couple of presidents.
00:25:31.420
That's $25 a month for unlimited talk, text, and plenty of data.
00:25:35.580
That is the cost of one or two meals out versus the hundreds that big wireless charges families every month.
00:25:40.840
There is no reason wireless service needs to be that expensive.
00:25:43.780
What makes Pure Talk different goes beyond just price.
00:25:46.320
They're an American wireless company that actively supports our veterans and invests in a U.S.-based customer service team.
00:25:51.480
So when you call, you're speaking with someone right here at home who can actually help.
00:25:57.720
Great, great phones, service, customer service.
00:26:05.240
Pure Talk uses the same towers as the big carriers.
00:26:07.780
Enjoy superior 5G coverage without the inflated price.
00:26:10.140
It's $25 a month for talk, text, and plenty of data.
00:26:25.420
Switching gears a little bit to an economic policy that I love.
00:26:28.900
President Trump announced his Trump accounts policy, family policy, great new social program
00:26:37.940
that is designed to give kids a head start, teach financial literacy.
00:26:46.900
Uh, well, I don't know what to say, but I will say that, um, I am probably the president's
00:27:08.500
And the hate, or what people have to say, it does not affect me at all.
00:27:19.440
And it's going to motivate all of us to support him more.
00:27:22.520
We're not going to let them get away with bullying him and, you know, the smear campaigns.
00:27:30.460
He has a lot of force behind him, and God is protecting him.
00:27:48.120
This lady went from, you know, the occasional supportive tweet to on the stage at America
00:27:54.460
Fest with Erica Kirk to now announcing this great new economic policy with the president.
00:28:06.320
I was hoping to make it to Washington, D.C. for the announcement of the Trump accounts.
00:28:13.720
The Trump accounts mean that every kid born between last year and the end of 2028, every
00:28:21.800
kid gets a thousand bucks in a federal account.
00:28:26.840
You can deposit up to $5,000 per year if you want to maximize growth.
00:28:35.880
Employers can contribute tax-free up to $2,500 per year if they want to as an employee benefit.
00:28:50.280
I should have gotten some lobbyists just to move the date a little bit on that.
00:28:54.920
This means that by age 18, a kid who just gets the Trump accounts, $1,000, they would
00:29:06.080
Now, that's with the parents contributing nothing.
00:29:09.080
If the parents contributed $250 per year, they would have almost $21,000 by the time they
00:29:18.760
If the parents contributed the federal max, $5,000 per year, this kid would have $304,000
00:29:31.720
It was kicked off with support from the Dell family.
00:29:34.660
The Dell family made like a billion-dollar, multi-billion-dollar donation to get this all
00:29:43.000
Visa, BlackRock financial institutions have come in.
00:29:49.260
One, it's great if you're having kids now or in the near future.
00:29:58.100
I think it's an existential matter for the country to encourage people to have kids,
00:30:05.860
When it comes to the electoral stuff, though, here's the reason I bring up the story is,
00:30:11.600
hey, Democrats, find something bad to say about this.
00:30:19.260
You know, I mean, you know, you have these friends, you have these relatives.
00:30:23.900
Anytime Trump does anything, Mr. Trump, would you like chocolate ice cream or vanilla?
00:30:42.740
Your tax policy is going to give everybody more money.
00:30:49.420
They just find something negative to say about anything.
00:30:55.100
Can you find anything bad to say about this policy?
00:30:57.760
This is my challenge to the Democrats in the comments who are watching this right now.
00:31:01.800
Find me one bad thing to say about this policy.
00:31:03.880
I don't think you'll be I don't think you'll be able to.
00:31:09.540
That should give you pause on all the other Trump policies, which are overwhelmingly popular.
00:31:14.960
When Bruce Springsteen says, it's the occupier's boot.
00:31:31.260
But for the mass deportations, they voted for Trump specifically for this.
00:31:50.600
An IVF company is now letting couples pick the best baby that they have and discard the rest.
00:32:05.940
They post, they say, every parent wants to give their children more than they had.
00:32:11.680
For the first time in human history, Nucleus adds a new tool to that commitment.
00:32:17.400
And it shows you all of your embryos that you make through IVF.
00:32:20.340
And the way you do that is the woman undergoes a very invasive, painful, dangerous procedure.
00:32:27.740
And then the man commits a disgusting and gravely disordered and sinful action in a little room with a nurse outside.
00:32:34.240
And then some scientists in a laboratory mix the two up.
00:32:40.160
And sometimes they get it wrong and they accidentally create kids whose parents have never even met each other.
00:32:48.640
And then what this IVF company does is it puts all the embryos in a nice app.
00:32:53.300
And it says, all right, this kid is going to probably, it's all probabilities, but it's probably going to be a boy.
00:32:58.480
Probably going to have brown eyes and blonde hair.
00:33:04.240
And then this other baby is going to be a girl.
00:33:19.480
Which means you can give your children more than you had.
00:33:27.920
That's what you can, that's the thing that this IVF company is allowing you to give to your children is dead siblings.
00:33:34.060
So I don't know, if you had dead siblings, then you're not giving your children more than you had.
00:33:37.840
But if you did not have dead siblings, then you are, in fact, giving them something more than you had.
00:33:43.100
According to the reporting here from LifeSite News, couples who signed up with Nucleus IVF Plus are presented with an electronic menu of up to 20 embryos they had conceived.
00:33:54.200
Allowing them to view the sex of each baby, their anticipated hair and eye color, and predictions about the height and IQ of each, as well as their risk for various diseases.
00:34:02.540
The company notes that all these characteristics are only framed in terms of probabilities.
00:34:12.180
What it's probably going to be used for is just to kill retarded people.
00:34:15.600
To kill people who might have a chance of being retarded.
00:34:18.580
It's really probably about that more than it's about the blonde hair and the blue eyes.
00:34:22.080
Is my baby going to have a likelihood of a genetic anomaly?
00:34:29.400
Well, I don't want a retarded kid, so I'm going to kill my retarded kid.
00:34:33.880
And the libs will see this and they'll say, Michael, it's so offensive that you said retarded.
00:34:37.440
And I say, well, you know, I find it pretty offensive that you kill retarded people.
00:34:43.800
That you would create whole companies for that.
00:34:47.580
Iceland, famously, said that they had exterminated Down syndrome.
00:34:53.600
What they meant is they had exterminated all the Down syndrome people by killing them in the womb.
00:35:05.540
Or actually people, the irony of it is in many cases, probably most cases,
00:35:11.200
But nevertheless, the doctors convinced them of that.
00:35:13.100
And then it's about, you know, picking the kid that we want to be, I don't know, the tallest, the most good-looking, whatever.
00:35:23.120
Again, we do that to some degree already in IVF.
00:35:27.600
The people who use IVF, they're already paying doctors to say, I think this embryo looks the healthiest.
00:35:32.760
And then we're going to freeze or discard all the other siblings.
00:35:35.460
The main point here is none of this is all that interesting.
00:35:50.200
Humans have been killing retarded people since antiquity all over the world.
00:35:55.280
Humans have been selecting for sex in their births forever.
00:36:01.180
Not just in modern IVF, but in ancient pagan cultures, they would leave girls, little girl babies often,
00:36:06.360
out to just be exposed or throw them off a mountain or something.
00:36:13.700
He was in a homily, though it might have been in a private conversation.
00:36:17.040
People, they think their sins are really interesting.
00:36:21.280
He said, I hear confessions hours a day, and I've heard it all.
00:36:37.600
Sin, it's all, they're like, you hurt someone, you're self-indulgent, you're prideful, you do.
00:36:47.620
You know, it's like, I don't want to get too graphic on it, but it's like the same four acts that basically you just do all that.
00:36:53.360
We have an amazing new product that will allow you to kill your retarded kids and try to make your other kids look better.
00:37:02.320
And if their siblings are uglier, you can kill them, too.
00:37:08.680
Speaking of making babies, the New York Times had a piece.
00:37:20.940
Folks, a lot of people have been bundled up all cozy indoors.
00:37:25.380
Well, if you have not been watching The Pendragon Cycle, Rise of the Merlin, exclusively on Daily Wire Plus, you are truly screwing up.
00:37:37.200
But here are what the fans of the show are saying about it.
00:37:40.660
People say, quote, I hate that I have to give The Daily Wire money to watch this.
00:37:46.040
I love people who maybe don't like The Daily Wire.
00:37:51.440
And they say, I hate that I have to give Daily Wire money to watch this excellent show.
00:37:57.820
Today, episode three of The Pendragon Cycle is available if you're not a member.
00:38:04.800
gives you three months of Daily Wire Plus, including one month for free, so you can watch the entire seven-episode series as it releases.
00:38:10.740
It automatically enters you to win a trip for two to Budapest, one of my favorite cities in the world, one of the main filming locations of Pendragon.
00:38:24.680
So we're going to see if I actually really like it.
00:38:28.120
It says, Michael looks particularly Italian in this video.
00:38:34.280
I can't help but notice when I'm on the road, I get all these compliments.
00:38:37.900
I say, Michael, the lighting looks really good.
00:38:41.800
Or even yesterday, someone said, I was in my buddy's, you know, makeshift studio.
00:38:45.080
I said, Michael, the lighting looks really good.
00:38:49.720
How come in the, like, cardboard studios that I end up using on the side of the road when I'm traveling, how come we get all the compliments for that?
00:38:57.200
But then here in my main studio, do I not look as good in my main studio?
00:39:09.640
I want to be very clear before this gets clipped out.
00:39:12.880
Kwame Anthony Apaya, the New York Times ethicist, is responding to a note that he got.
00:39:34.680
But calling your wife your partner is definitely, definitely gay.
00:39:39.560
Over the past year, she had an affair, and I knew about it from the beginning.
00:39:42.960
She said that she needed it, and then it gave her vitality, that she enjoyed a sexual freedom she had longed for, and that she felt it was wrong to do this in secret and without my consent.
00:39:55.780
She convincingly assured me this was no threat to our relationship.
00:40:00.100
At the same time, I always suffered when she was away with her affair partner and could not find a way to take this easily.
00:40:08.020
She recently decided to break it off because of the overall emotional burden for both of us.
00:40:12.160
While she was grieving about it, I feel relieved.
00:40:15.320
And then he says, basically, should I feel bad for my wife that she broke up with her boyfriend?
00:40:25.060
Now, if I were the ethicist at the New York Times, my response would be, no, what is wrong with you?
00:40:31.660
Seek help from maybe a therapist, certainly like a priest or an exorcist.
00:40:44.220
You should feel bad about your wife's affair, but not that you don't need to help her grieve.
00:40:49.020
He says, we don't have voluntary control over our emotional responses, at least not in any straightforward way.
00:40:59.500
Neither of you can simply choose to feel otherwise.
00:41:02.100
And from what you say, it sounds as if she gave up the affair for you and for her relationship with you,
00:41:06.200
just as you consented to it for her and for your relationship with her.
00:41:11.240
You most likely felt you had little choice in acquiescing to what she wanted.
00:41:14.360
And in time, she may have felt that she had little choice about acquiescing to what you clearly wanted.
00:41:19.920
Your partnership would not have gone well, you perhaps thought, if you had withheld your consent.
00:41:24.220
It would not have gone well, she perhaps thought, if she had persisted.
00:41:27.080
Beneath the velvet of sweet reasonableness lurked the edge steel of unspoken ultimatums.
00:41:30.820
Okay, that one line, that's the only reasonable part of this entire response.
00:41:36.900
But while your sense of relief is unsurprising, maybe you could help her deal with her loss out of gratitude for her belated acknowledgement of your needs.
00:41:47.220
Consoling someone you love when they're in pain doesn't require that you share in the pain.
00:42:04.720
Do you notice that in the question to the ethicist and in the ethicist's response?
00:42:10.300
There is not even the pretense that there is any such thing as an objective moral order.
00:42:15.900
Much less an objective moral order that is actually conducive to our happiness.
00:42:29.040
This guy is supposed to be giving advice on good living.
00:42:37.680
From what I'm reading, I see no evidence that he really believes in right and wrong.
00:42:41.060
The guy writing in, the cuckold, says, you know, my wife wanted this.
00:42:54.040
And then the ethicist says, yes, you did consent.
00:43:10.480
This is the state of modern morality and philosophy in public life and newspapers.
00:43:18.240
You can tell the New York Times clearly just wants to become like a tabloid.
00:43:20.700
But they'd have to make it seem really smart and, you know, thoughtful and everything.
00:43:34.200
And I explained to her why that question itself is deeply disordered.
00:43:39.380
And how she clearly has profound spiritual and psychological problems.
00:44:00.700
You chose the wrong thing, not the right thing.
00:44:02.780
There's a right thing to do and a wrong thing to do.
00:44:08.400
Because modern liberalism has infected our minds and our consciences.
00:44:13.020
And we just think that consent is all that matters.
00:44:18.740
Well, you know, as long as the guys are consensual.
00:44:21.040
As long as it's consenting adults, what do I care?
00:44:23.180
That is a right-wing reaction that you hear pretty frequently.
00:44:33.680
If the ethicist can't acknowledge that there is right and wrong,
00:44:46.000
Just encouraging cuckolds down the road to further humiliation.
00:44:54.380
Like you read these people, you read this ethicist,
00:45:03.900
seems just like a normal guy with common sense.
00:45:07.140
And then you read like a professional ethicist philosopher,
00:45:10.240
and they read like absolute inscrutable, jargony lunatics.
00:45:15.800
You think, you know, I think I'm sticking with Socrates.
00:45:29.480
I want to get to Michelle Obama talking about how black women
00:45:33.140
But I'm going to get to the Democrat candidate for Ohio Attorney General.
00:45:36.880
This would be Elliot Forehand, who is running on this platform.
00:45:39.680
Hi, this is Elliot Forehand, candidate for Ohio Attorney General.
00:45:46.400
I want to tell you what I mean when I say that I am going to kill Donald Trump.
00:45:53.740
I mean I'm going to obtain a conviction rendered by a jury of his peers
00:45:59.340
at a standard of proof beyond a reasonable doubt,
00:46:05.960
conducted in accordance with the requirements of due process,
00:46:10.220
resulting in a sentence duly executed of capital punishment.
00:46:16.120
That is what I mean when I say that I am going to kill Donald Trump.
00:46:30.220
I can't help but notice the hair is parted on this side.
00:46:54.780
This, of course, after Democrats nearly did succeed at killing him.
00:46:58.400
Came within one twentieth of an inch of blowing his brains out on national television.
00:47:01.820
Other assassination attempts, of course, as well.
00:47:10.980
Or is he representative of a broader trend on the left?
00:47:17.680
28% of Democrats said we would be better off if Trump had been assassinated.
00:47:27.320
52% of Democrats, according to a Rasmussen poll not that long ago, most Democrats said
00:47:35.080
we would be better off if Trump were assassinated.
00:47:37.420
Manhattan Institute, July 2024, 33% of Democrats agreed with the statement, I wish Trump's assassin
00:47:43.900
NCRI survey, April 2025, 48% of left-leaning respondents said it would be at least somewhat
00:47:55.360
This guy, you know, he's a big jerk and a joke and all the rest of it.
00:47:59.200
Though he served in the Ohio House of Representatives.
00:48:01.700
He's not just a total lunatic, fake AG candidate.
00:48:04.580
He's like a real politician in Ohio who's won elections.
00:48:09.420
But more importantly, he's not just an aberration here.
00:48:23.000
They don't like giving a thousand bucks to American kids every year.
00:48:25.920
They don't like enforcing the basics of immigration law.
00:48:30.680
The people who would celebrate Trump's death would celebrate your death too if they knew
00:48:36.680
That's one of the conclusions of Charlie's assassination.
00:48:39.880
These people, your coworker, that girl you went to school with,
00:48:43.060
that maybe some distant family member, maybe a not so distant family member.
00:48:47.120
The ones who celebrated Charlie Kirk's assassination, many of them.
00:48:51.100
The ones who would celebrate Trump's assassination, many of them.
00:48:55.400
They would celebrate your assassination too if they knew what you really believed and if you
00:48:59.500
had a shot to actually achieve political change.
00:49:02.820
This is a little different from what we've been dealing with in the past.
00:49:09.040
This is not just, oh shucks, you know, Reagan and Tip O'Neill fight it out during the day
00:49:13.400
For the doomers and the people who say we need to disengage from the political order and Trump's
00:49:24.940
If those people come back into power, what do you think is going to happen?
00:49:32.740
They have told you repeatedly they want you dead.
00:49:46.760
Yes, a check out for two months free on all annual plans.
00:50:01.260
What was it like, Merlin, to be alone with God?
00:50:18.860
I am yet convinced that he was not of this world.
00:51:09.880
Fate of Britain never rests in the hands of the great light.
00:51:30.400
How many lives must be lost before you accept the power you were born to wield?
00:51:38.160
So clinging to the promises of a god who has abandoned you.
