00:00:00.000 This episode is brought to you by Cardiff, America's favorite small business lender with
00:00:03.020 over $12 billion funded since 2004, applying under three minutes for same-day funding up
00:00:06.420 to $500,000 at cardiff.co slash Knowles. Ilhan Omar is reportedly under investigation and could
00:00:12.360 be denaturalized and deported in what might be the greatest election year October surprise of
00:00:18.640 all time. Then schools around the country warn against Islamophobia on the 25th anniversary of
00:00:24.620 9-11. And liberals nearly faint as the lone holdout juror in the Lindsey Clancy case
00:00:31.060 turns out to be a black guy. I'm Michael Knowles. This is The Michael Knowles Show.

00:02:15.340 absolute cinema comes to us by way of cbs mornings one of the jurors you know these ladies they are 1.00
00:02:24.160 blabbing all over the place about the lindsey clancy trial anywhere that anyone will listen 1.00
00:02:28.940 to them they're going on tv and demonstrating the many flaws in their logic in the lindsey
00:02:34.180 clancy case uh infamous kind of stuff i mean the sort of the sort of thing that will go down in
00:02:39.720 infamy to show the collapse of American judgment, at least among liberal women. In any case,
00:02:46.720 one of the jurors is on CBS Mornings, and she reveals a key fact about the identity of that
00:02:56.200 lone giga-chad holdout juror who said, we are not going to let Lindsey Clancy off the hook
00:03:01.420 for murdering her kids.
00:03:04.000 One person of color 1.00
00:03:05.560 and then everybody else
00:03:06.960 was white.
00:03:10.320 A lot of the jurors
00:03:11.800 had children.
00:03:13.900 One person of color
00:03:15.140 was a person of color
00:03:16.080 a woman or a man? 0.67
00:03:17.360 A man. 0.95
00:03:18.260 A man.
00:03:19.800 Is a holdout juror
00:03:20.880 a person,
00:03:22.000 a black man?
00:03:23.740 Yes. 0.98
00:03:24.680 A black man is a holdout juror? 0.99
00:03:26.340 Yes. 1.00
00:03:28.340 Well, I have to sit with that
00:03:30.420 for just a second.
00:03:31.420 I have to, like, it's like a Looney Tunes reaction, like Wile E. Coyote, you know,
00:03:39.020 jaw drops, tongue unfurls. Hold on. And you could tell she had this trepidation,
00:03:45.240 this deep dread. She said, hold on. Wait a second. You said one of the jurors was a black guy.
00:03:51.820 Yes, but it couldn't. You're not saying no, but we we've just been for a week, 1.00
00:03:59.180 two weeks we please don't tell me it was the holdout jury it was oh i need to sit with that
00:04:05.220 the that was the punchline to the setup that came on the oprah winfrey show
00:04:10.540 when they were discussing the lindsey clancy case and a black woman
00:04:15.200 reacted to the case not by saying that all women should stop murdering their kids she said you know 0.99
00:04:20.620 i just want to make sure that black women have the same right to murder their kids that a white 0.99
00:04:25.540 woman like Lindsay Clancy has. And the other thing that I would just be remiss to not say is 0.99
00:04:32.540 I, I hope this never happens again. We know statistically it really will. It will. I want
00:04:40.540 us to have the same passion for people who don't look like Lindsay, who don't have her same access. 0.97
00:04:47.660 who don't have her same access and education her melanin her privilege there are women of color 1.00
00:05:03.640 sitting around this country in prisons for the same thing that we've never heard of 1.00
00:05:07.920 and i just want to remind us to have the pink shirts and the energy for them as well yeah
00:05:14.160 That's right. Yes. Preach. Preach, sister. Preach. It is the white supremacy of this country
00:05:24.260 that is treating Lindsay Clancy with kid gloves while the poor oppressed black women are not 1.00
00:05:31.660 encouraged to murder their kids. It's as if this woman, this black woman on Oprah, 0.98
00:05:37.100 she says, I'd like to report a serious threat. White supremacy. White supremacy is stopping 1.00
00:05:43.220 black women for murdering their kids. It's a horrible racist. And the operator interrupts 1.00
00:05:49.240 says, ma'am, ma'am, the call is coming from inside the house. Ma'am, the only black guy 0.94
00:05:57.160 on the jury is the only person who is going to hold Lindsey Clancy accountable for this.
00:06:01.980 Presidential Medal of Freedom, please. Hello. Hi, White House. Can I place an order for one
00:06:06.780 presidential medal of freedom for this guy, this one guy with a reason and accountability that
00:06:13.660 would be the one black guy in the jury. So it totally throws the liberal narrative for a loop.
00:06:18.720 It, it reminds me of there was this one time some liberal black lady was calling into the
00:06:23.520 David Webb radio show, the conservative radio host, David Webb. And he started beating her 0.62
00:06:28.980 on the arguments. And so she says, well, you're only talking out of your white privilege
00:06:32.200 because she didn't know she was a radio show. She couldn't see him. She didn't realize that
00:06:36.380 David Webb is very much a black guy. So this is their immediate reaction. That's their immediate
00:06:41.580 boogeyman. And this is why on CBS Mornings, the host has to stop herself and say, oh, 0.76
00:06:48.000 wait a second, the one black guy is the only person to insist that she's guilty? Yikes, 0.56
00:06:53.560 I have to sit with that for a second. The reason she has to sit with that is because it forces her 1.00
00:06:57.540 to reconsider all of her priors. So that is why, I mean, probably he won't get the Presidential
00:07:02.140 Medal of Freedom. But one reason he should is not just holding this woman's feet to the fire 0.65
00:07:05.980 for her horrible crime. Another reason he should is he has forced all of the liberals of America to
00:07:11.780 reconsider all of their racial priors. Really, really good stuff. Last point on the Lindsay
00:07:16.080 Clancy jury, because they just keep talking. They just keep revealing how wrongheaded their
00:07:23.860 thinking was. I mean, they're making all of us reconsider the legitimacy of trial by jury.
00:07:29.020 The woman goes on and she says what Lindsay Clancy did was altruistic filicide.
00:07:36.400 Was there any specific evidence that swayed you?
00:07:40.500 And I'm very curious about the evidence that he was opposed to.
00:07:45.800 Let's talk about the evidence for you first.
00:07:47.740 I think Dr. Resnick, his testimony about altruistic filicide was really impactful
00:07:56.440 because all throughout the trial we had all the witnesses there had been nothing but good said
00:08:03.820 about Lindsay and how amazing of a mother she was and how much she loved her children we saw that in
00:08:10.880 every picture that was taken of the house on the night that this happened everywhere you look there
00:08:16.880 was just love there was a big sign that said it's a wonderful life and you know there wasn't anything
00:08:26.000 that said she wasn't that and then to hear somebody talking about a real reason why all
00:08:33.460 of a sudden this could happen that was really impactful altruistic filicide george orwell
00:08:41.700 spins in his grave at the extent of the absurd manipulation of language altruistic filicide
00:08:49.680 she just clearly the jurors just began from the premise that lindsey clancy had to be innocent
00:08:55.740 So they have to twist themselves into all sorts of knots to arrive at that conclusion from their false premise.
00:09:01.400 So they have to concoct ideas such as altruistic filicide, which again, I guess you could, if one were in a state of complete psychosis, one could maybe kind of come to the conclusion that you were helping the kids by killing them if it were some religious cult or something.
00:09:21.480 There was actually a father who said he killed their kids because he felt that God was telling them to.
00:09:25.740 But in the Lindsey Clancy case, there's absolutely no evidence of that.
00:09:28.120 It was all methodically planned out.
00:09:30.000 She was not diagnosed with postpartum depression,
00:09:32.300 and she was not on all the drugs people said she was on.
00:09:35.140 And it's weak stuff.
00:09:37.660 Really, really weak stuff from the jury and one lone holdout.
00:09:41.900 Absolutely love him.
00:09:43.580 Great job.
00:09:44.940 The way you just know she was wrong from the outset,
00:09:47.840 she says, you know, it was really impactful, the testimony.
00:09:51.540 Anytime you hear someone say the word impactful,
00:09:53.680 you can basically disregard everything else they've said.
00:09:56.280 Not to be too pedantic or sneering or preening about it,
00:10:00.180 but that one drives me nuts.
00:10:02.000 Of all the corporate jargon, synergy, all the rest of it, 0.95
00:10:06.660 impactful drives me the craziest because it's very silly.
00:10:09.740 Something is not full of impact.
00:10:11.360 I remember Obama used impactful,
00:10:13.200 but it's a bad word because it's a weak metaphor.
00:10:16.960 It's a filler that people use
00:10:19.160 when they're not thinking clearly.
00:10:21.220 They could use more precise words like significant or powerful, but impactful.
00:10:26.900 A thing can be full of power, a thing can't be full of impact.
00:10:29.020 But regardless, it's one of these signs that people are just, like George Orwell said in politics in the English language, they're not going through the work of thinking for themselves.
00:10:39.860 So they just open up their minds and allow these ready-made phrases, these dead metaphors to fill in. 0.89
00:10:45.620 And it's why there was one person with clear thought on that jury, and it was the black guy.
00:10:49.980 okay speaking of black people ilhan omar is under investigation she might be denaturalized and
00:10:54.560 deported first though wait what's the what's with the ding what was that ding about i didn't say
00:11:01.020 speechless that was a different one was that like a muslim thing is this is this is to promote run
00:11:10.980 hide fight this is what they're doing they're trying to do a new ding dong campaign to promote 0.74
00:11:16.060 run, hide, fight. But I thought it was like whenever I said run, hide, fight, you do the
00:11:19.520 ding dong. Instead, it's what? Whenever I mention a Muslim, whenever I mention a Muslim in America,
00:11:23.920 we're going to do the ding dong ding for the run, hide, fight. You're going to end up with 1.00
00:11:27.460 dings every three syllables. That's some great producing right there.
00:11:31.500 Wow. Great production for Mr. Davies. Okay. Before we get to the deportation of Ilhan Omar,
00:11:36.320 I want to tell you about Ave Maria Mutual Funds. There's a lot more to say. First,
00:11:40.420 they'll go to AveMariaFunds.com slash Michael, M-I-C-H-A-E-L. People are very good at boycotting
00:11:46.260 things. You know, this company supports something that I oppose, so I'm not going to buy their
00:11:50.660 product. Okay, fair enough. Here's a little trickier question. Do you own their stock?
00:11:57.120 If your values matter when you're spending money as a consumer, they probably ought to matter when
00:12:02.420 you're spending your money as an investor too, right? That is one of many reasons I'm proud to

00:12:57.740 Folks, very excited that you might be one.
00:12:59.680 you're looking at me, you're saying, Michael, why do you look so good today? Well, it's not,
00:13:04.500 it's not because I slept well. It's certainly not because I've been working out. It is because of
00:13:08.820 this Mayflower smoking jacket. They are back. Pre-orders are now open. We do these every so 0.71
00:13:15.660 often. We don't do them a ton. They sell out very, very quickly. So if you want one, please order it
00:13:22.180 right now. This year we have a new color. This might be the most beautiful one we've done yet.
00:13:26.140 We are working in tandem with the exceptional tailors over at Shepard's Menwear.
00:13:30.020 We are sourcing the velvet from Como, Italy, where the very, very finest label producers of smoking jackets get their velvet.
00:13:38.560 It has real horn here for the buttons.
00:13:41.460 It's just absolutely magnificent.
00:13:43.920 It's cut to your individual measurements.
00:13:47.120 Nothing is pulled off the shelf.
00:13:48.660 The price for this jacket is the best price you will ever see for any smoking jacket.
00:13:55.000 it probably beats off-the-rack high-end smoking jackets by over 50%. And in terms of bespoke,
00:14:00.460 you'll never see anything like it. So again, not everybody needs a bespoke smoking jacket,
00:14:04.040 but if you want one, this is the one you'll have your initials stitched inside of it. It's just
00:14:09.240 they're phenomenal. And I know everybody complains when they sell out. Pre-orders are now open
00:14:12.700 through October 15th for delivery by Christmas. These are heirloom garments. They're well worth
00:14:16.640 the wait. If you want one under your own tree or under someone else's this year, you must be 21
00:14:20.780 years older, older, to order conditions and exclusions apply. Ilhan Omar is under investigation.
00:14:27.920 Does this mean, do we hope against all hope? Do we allow ourselves to be so hopeful
00:14:32.460 that she could be deported? Can you say, though, whether the federal government has
00:14:39.480 evidence right now that Congresswoman Omar committed immigration or naturalization fraud?
00:14:46.060 Because the DHS secretary appeared to be making a declarative statement there.
00:14:51.400 Well, I'm not going to comment on ongoing criminal investigation.
00:14:55.160 I know things are going on, but I can't give specifics of what's happening.
00:15:00.280 But, no, we'll see.
00:15:02.120 I mean, if someone committed immigration violation,
00:15:06.060 if someone committed marriage fraud or anything like that,
00:15:08.280 regardless if they're a congressman or not, no one's above the law.
00:15:11.740 So I'll leave it at that.
00:15:13.540 We'll let HSI, Homeland Security Investigations, continue the investigation.
00:15:20.540 Okay, so you're confirming that there is an investigation into Congresswoman Omar.
00:15:27.580 I'm confirming that ICE is, yeah. 0.94
00:15:31.340 Is there a denaturalization case that is being brought against her?
00:15:37.680 Look, I've been around 40 years and we've done denat cases.
00:15:41.540 We have denaturalized citizens based on fraud, based on lying under applications or lying through the process, misrepresenting themselves.
00:15:49.920 or maybe misrepresenting organizations they belong to or beliefs they have.
00:15:55.440 But denaturalization is a process.
00:15:57.840 It's a very serious process.
00:15:59.800 So if someone lies through that process to becoming a citizen,
00:16:03.240 and we can prove they, in fact, lied or misrepresented themselves,
00:16:07.320 we can absolutely denaturalize them.
00:16:09.280 We've done it before many times over the last 40 years I've been around.
00:16:13.100 So it's a process.
00:16:14.740 Okay, so hold on.
00:16:15.620 I'm not going to allow my hopes to get too high here,
00:16:18.360 but Tom Homan, who is the border czar under Trump, and he's a very, very effective communicator
00:16:24.060 of the immigration policies. Tom Homan is saying, yeah, Ilhan Omar is under investigation. He's
00:16:29.700 being very judicious, very prudential with his speech. And even when the anchor asks him, hold
00:16:34.520 on, you are confirming she's under investigation. He starts to caution his language, but then he
00:16:39.820 says, well, hold on. Yeah, no, that part's already public. Yeah, we're definitely investigating her.
00:16:44.440 And she says, okay, well, is it possible,
00:16:47.380 let's say she's found guilty of immigration violations,
00:16:49.860 is it possible that she, a U.S. citizen and a member of Congress,
00:16:54.860 could be denaturalized, lose her citizenship, and then be deported?
00:17:00.900 And what does Tom Homan say?
00:17:02.200 He doesn't miss a beat.
00:17:03.220 He just says, well, I mean, that's what happens when you get denaturalized.
00:17:06.240 And I've seen it over my 40-year career.
00:17:08.820 So we're just going to let the investigation play out.
00:17:13.640 So this could be the greatest October surprise, maybe in any congressional election ever.
00:17:22.860 You know, the October surprise is what happens right before the election.
00:17:26.940 Now, probably it has to be more of a September surprise because we have early voting because
00:17:32.200 the Democrats changed all the voting rules in order to cheat and rig the elections.
00:17:35.400 But in any case, because we no longer just all vote on election day, a lot of people
00:17:39.180 vote earlier, the October surprise has to come a little earlier.
00:17:41.720 but the surprise is supposed to be the thing that at the last minute totally turns the momentum in
00:17:46.220 the race and doesn't give the target enough time to respond. In this case, saying that the person
00:17:54.340 who is running for office, in this case an incumbent, is going to lose citizenship and
00:17:58.360 be deported, that's as good as it gets. Yeah, they always do some sex scandal or something.
00:18:03.340 This is a sex scandal because one of the reasons for the investigation is that Ilhan Omar
00:18:08.860 illegitimately married her brother in order to help him commit immigration fraud,
00:18:13.240 allegedly, with a lot of evidence. And so there actually is a weird sex scandal in here. It's not
00:18:19.740 the only incest sex scandal of the Democrat races this cycle, because the Democrat Senate nominee
00:18:24.700 up in Maine also fathered two children with his cousin, but that's neither here nor there.
00:18:28.880 We're focusing on Ilhan Omar. If she gets deported, that would be a great October surprise.
00:18:34.380 But two, it would show that the administration is really going all the way.
00:18:40.920 The administration has done a good job on deportations,
00:18:43.420 a much better job than they're getting credit for from their opponents on the right.
00:18:47.700 What's the number?
00:18:48.340 The foreign-born number in the population has gone down by two and a half million
00:18:52.700 or thereabouts over the last year and a half. 1.00
00:18:55.220 So that's actually pretty impressive. 1.00
00:18:56.760 It's the first time that you're seeing a decline of those foreigners in the country since, what, the 1930s or something like that. 1.00
00:19:06.780 So it's very, very impressive. 1.00
00:19:08.580 Nevertheless, though, people are saying, hold on, there could be 20 million.
00:19:10.960 Some people say there are more illegal aliens in the country, and the foreign-born percentage of population is even higher than that.
00:19:16.680 So there are people saying, no, you have to increase the mass deportations, and a lot of people are going to get off the hook. 0.98
00:19:22.240 So if the previous debate was, do we only deport the face-tattooed criminals or do we also deport Abuela and the Gardeners and the other people who are otherwise peaceable despite having broken the law? 0.94
00:19:35.520 That was the previous kind of debate. 0.84
00:19:37.400 Now we might be getting to the debate of do we only deport Abuela or do we also deport members of Congress?
00:19:42.160 That's really impressive.
00:19:43.600 I'm not totally holding my breath.
00:19:45.240 It'll be very hard, and there's no way that it'll happen before the election itself.
00:19:48.520 But depending on what stage of the investigation we're at, there is a chance that we could get
00:19:52.780 new information about a potential denaturalization case on Ilhan Omar.
00:19:57.120 If I were Ilhan Omar, I'd be pretty worried because she pretty obviously committed immigration
00:20:00.440 fraud. 0.91
00:20:00.860 Okay, now, turning from Ilhan Omar, but we're going to stick with people who still giggle
00:20:05.600 about Al-Qaeda, we turn to the Fairfax County Public Schools.
00:20:09.900 Fairfax County Public Schools have been revealed to have this lesson plan for the 25th anniversary
00:20:17.460 and commemoration of 9-11. And one of the most important points of this lesson plan
00:20:26.580 in Fairfax County, Virginia, right near the nation's capital, is that we stop Islamophobia.
00:20:34.700 I kid you not, they go, do spend time familiarizing yourself with the complexity of 9-11.
00:20:39.220 Actually, it wasn't that complex. Muslims who had already attacked the World Trade Center before 0.97
00:20:44.580 and who have been waging war on our civilization for 1,400 years, 1.00
00:20:47.960 they attacked the same place they already attacked 0.50
00:20:50.500 and killed thousands of people.
00:20:52.480 Prioritize students' safety and wellness.
00:20:54.580 What? Okay.
00:20:56.720 Judging by our immigration policies of the last 25 years,
00:20:59.080 I don't think we've done that.
00:21:00.520 Design instruction around your students' needs and experiences.
00:21:02.960 They need to know the truth.
00:21:04.000 So, okay, I don't know if you're doing that.
00:21:05.800 Design for accurate, inclusive representation.
00:21:07.960 Inclusive representation.
00:21:09.660 We included so many people that we got the 9-11 attacks.
00:21:12.260 Emphasize humanity, hope, and unity.
00:21:13.760 Okay, what are the don'ts?
00:21:15.700 Don't create an emotionally stressful learning environment
00:21:17.680 for any student.
00:21:18.340 Well, that's kind of hard
00:21:18.880 when you're learning about mass terror attacks.
00:21:21.020 Assume students' feelings and experiences
00:21:22.820 based on their identity.
00:21:24.020 Don't assume their feelings.
00:21:25.200 Okay, yeah, that's fair.
00:21:26.720 Like don't assume that Muslims support 9-11.
00:21:30.660 Ignore statements rooted in bias, hate, and racism.
00:21:33.760 What does that even mean?
00:21:36.140 And then here's the key one.
00:21:37.880 Don't associate the 9-11 attacks with Islam or Muslims.
00:21:41.480 don't associate the 9-11 attacks with islam or muslims 0.59
00:21:48.100 in other words don't teach about 9-11 on the 25th anniversary of 9-11 the worst terrorist
00:21:54.480 attack in american history don't teach about 9-11 you the the fairfax county public schools don't
00:22:01.620 think that 9-11 had anything to do with islam it'd be like saying hey teach about the vatican
00:22:09.920 but don't teach that the Vatican has anything to do with Catholicism.
00:22:13.880 Teach about the state of Israel, but don't teach that the state of Israel has anything to do with
00:22:17.740 Judaism. The 9-11 attacks were perpetrated in the name of Islam and then were celebrated in Muslim 0.92
00:22:26.520 countries. Whatever other thoughts, concerns, questions you have about 9-11, there is no
00:22:34.240 question that Islamic terror groups took credit for the attacks and then Muslims around the world 0.92
00:22:41.400 celebrated it. There were Muslims who didn't celebrate it. There were Muslims who condemned
00:22:44.520 it. But there were videos of Muslims around the world celebrating it. And it was done in the name 0.51
00:22:48.880 of Islam. And I can't just blame the Fairfax County Public Schools because you know what? 0.99
00:22:55.540 Then President George W. Bush did the exact same thing at the time. And 25 years later,
00:23:00.380 he just proved he hasn't learned a thing about it. We'll get to that in a second. First,
00:23:03.060 I want to tell you about YAF. There's a lot more to say first, though. Go to yaf.org
00:23:07.380 slash national hyphen journalism hyphen center. If you are a young conservative who spends all
00:23:13.000 day frustrated with the media, here is my challenge for you. Stop yelling at the journalists and
00:23:17.000 become one. Because we can complain about biased coverage all day long, but ultimately, someone
00:23:21.820 has to be willing to get into the newsroom, ask the uncomfortable questions, investigate what
00:23:26.020 others want, and actually report the truth. That is exactly what the National Journalism Center,
00:23:30.140 the NJC, has been preparing young journalists to do since 1977. NJC is a 12-week paid full-time
00:23:36.580 internship that places you inside some of the most dynamic political newsrooms in Washington,
00:23:40.620 D.C., including right here at The Daily Wire. You will spend Monday through Thursday actually
00:23:44.720 working in a newsroom and producing published work. On Fridays, you will learn directly from
00:23:48.480 prominent names in conservative journalism, plus receive one-on-one investigative training from
00:23:52.620 reporters who know how to uncover fraud and hold government officials accountable.
00:23:56.000 Because moving to D.C. is expensive, especially when you're young,
00:23:59.280 NJC provides free housing right on Capitol Hill.
00:24:02.340 This is really crucial.
00:24:03.580 I mean, YAF has been leading the way for young conservatives for many, many decades now.
00:24:08.960 And the National Journalism Center is one of the most important things they do.
00:24:11.780 If you are ready to stop watching from the sidelines and get into the game,
00:24:14.880 then stand up and report the truth.
00:24:16.580 Apply to NJCToday at yaf.org slash national hyphen journalism hyphen center.
00:24:22.580 One of the really unfortunate parts of the commemoration of the 25th anniversary of 9-11
00:24:29.240 was President Bush, who, you know, he is pilloried universally today by the Democrats
00:24:36.360 and by the Republicans. The Republicans are probably harsher on him today than the Democrats
00:24:39.960 are. And I think George W. Bush had a very tough job. He was president at a very tough time. He
00:24:44.920 made some big mistakes. There's no question about it. But he did a lot of good things too,
00:24:49.140 and I think he did his best.
00:24:51.280 And I'm actually a little softer on George W. Bush
00:24:53.040 than a lot of my fellow Republicans are.
00:24:55.500 But there is one error that he made
00:24:58.360 that he is doubling, tripling, 25 timing down on
00:25:02.220 on this anniversary. 0.54
00:25:03.800 And this is the notion that Islam has nothing to do with 9-11
00:25:07.520 and that Islam, in fact, is a religion of peace.
00:25:12.040 I want you to talk about a couple of those events.
00:25:15.340 You talked about going to the Islamic Center
00:25:18.240 and trying to make sure that our Muslim American citizens knew that we didn't blame them for what had happened. 0.98
00:25:26.480 I also made it clear that Islam was a religion of peace, not a religion of war, and that these people subverted their religion.
00:25:36.600 So he's doubling down on this, which he said 25 years ago. 0.94
00:25:40.960 He says, you know, Condi, it's not just that we don't blame American Muslims for 9-11, which, you know, that may have been a good thing to do.
00:25:48.740 You certainly wouldn't blame all Muslims, 0.95
00:25:50.420 but some of them were celebrating,
00:25:51.900 but some of them were not.
00:25:52.720 Some of them were condemning it.
00:25:53.620 So, okay, that might be a good thing to do.
00:25:55.080 Condoleezza Rice here pitching this in the right way. 1.00
00:25:58.120 George W. Bush comes out.
00:25:59.240 He says, well, you know, the other thing I said
00:26:01.200 was that Islam is a religion of peace,
00:26:03.920 that these terrorists had subverted their religion.
00:26:06.180 And I stand by that statement.
00:26:09.000 That is not true.
00:26:10.400 That is not true today.
00:26:11.500 It was not true 25 years ago. 1.00
00:26:12.860 It has never been true in the whole history of Islam. 1.00
00:26:15.440 And I get why he said it. 0.97
00:26:17.680 He said it because he didn't want to go to war with like billions of Muslims.
00:26:23.520 That's why he said it.
00:26:24.980 He didn't want to alienate our allies among the Muslim countries, among the Gulf states.
00:26:30.620 I get it. 1.00
00:26:31.560 I understand the geopolitics of trying to downplay the intrinsic violence of Islam. 1.00
00:26:38.340 But there are other ways to do it. 0.98
00:26:39.980 You could say Islam doesn't always have to be violent.
00:26:43.900 There are many peaceful passages in the Quran.
00:26:46.440 But to say that Islam is a religion of peace, and these people had subverted their religion, is just preposterous.
00:26:54.320 If Islam were a religion of peace, Islam would be confined at most to the Arabian Peninsula.
00:27:01.700 How do you think Islam spread? 0.96
00:27:05.160 Islam spread from the very beginning through the sword. 0.75
00:27:10.560 And then Islam spread throughout the Levant and North Africa by the sword. 0.89
00:27:15.320 And then Islam spread up through Iberia, across the Strait of Gibraltar, up through Iberia, all through Greek islands, Sicily, up to about 150 miles outside of Paris, through the sword. 0.91
00:27:27.720 And it would have kept going north if not for Charlemagne's grandpa Charles Martel turning them back at the Battle of Tours. 1.00
00:27:33.620 That's the way Islam has always spread. 1.00
00:27:36.820 It is a carnal religion. 1.00
00:27:40.080 Whatever other good things you want to say about Islam, it is a carnal religion.
00:27:43.820 it offers people carnal delights. I forget, was it Chesterton who made that observation?
00:27:49.980 I think it might have been Chesterton. Any fun quote, you can basically just attribute to G.K.
00:27:53.960 Chesterton. But notice, Christianity is actually a religion of peace. Christianity spread throughout
00:27:59.660 the Roman Empire, not by killing other people, but by allowing themselves to be killed by the 0.95
00:28:04.840 pagans. The blood of the martyrs is the seed of the church. It's an actual peaceful religion.
00:28:09.860 The instances, I know in our modern revisionist history,
00:28:12.600 we try to claim that Christianity is a terribly violent religion,
00:28:15.900 just isn't true.
00:28:16.900 The number of times that you can actually count Christian polities 0.82
00:28:22.000 converting people through the threat of violence,
00:28:24.720 it's like two at most.
00:28:27.660 I guess you could say a little bit under Charlemagne,
00:28:31.900 an Alcuin of York, his theologian, told him to knock it off.
00:28:35.580 And you could argue the Spanish Inquisition.
00:28:39.040 under the Spanish crown. But even there, it's a little more complicated than that.
00:28:43.440 But let's even grant that. Okay, those are like two instances ever. Islam has only spread by the
00:28:49.020 sword. You just, so I guess this is my frustration with George Bush. He had an impossible task
00:28:55.540 before him or a very difficult task before him as the president on 9-11. He was trying to manage
00:28:59.680 the Muslims in America and our Muslim allies abroad. And he was trying not to go to war with
00:29:04.360 the whole religion and start a crusade. But he lied. And maybe he really believes it,
00:29:10.040 so maybe he just got it fantastically wrong. But it's just so false. It's just so obviously false.
00:29:16.860 And it plays into a liberal view of rhetoric, of speech, of thought, which is that lies can
00:29:25.980 be liberating. That's what liberalism ultimately kind of comes down to, is that lies can be
00:29:31.820 liberating. If we just lie, if we deny reality, if we just try to change reality through our will,
00:29:36.740 if we just lie enough, if we tell the man that he's really a woman, if we just lie enough,
00:29:40.880 that will be liberating and good for at least some people and maybe everybody. But that isn't
00:29:45.000 true. If you're a Christian, you believe that lies are sinful and wrong and the wages of sin 0.96
00:29:49.860 are death. And you believe that the truth will set you free. So you can't, you're not going to
00:29:55.680 fix the problem. Do you know 25 years after 9-11, the number of mosques in the United States has 1.00
00:30:01.020 doubled. It's actually more than doubled. For most people, the first time they ever heard the 0.76
00:30:08.620 phrase Islamophobia was after 9-11, when the big concern was that we were going to have an undue
00:30:17.220 reaction against the Muslims. This is the Norm joke, the Norm MacDonald joke. I have this horrible
00:30:22.780 fear that a Muslim terrorist would get a dirty bomb detonated over a major city, killing tens 1.00
00:30:26.740 of millions of people, because the blowback against peaceful Muslims would be terrible. 0.99
00:30:32.060 It's a reminder to all of our elected officials. Yes, have nuance. Yes, manage coalitions. Yes,
00:30:38.100 do your best in the art of the possible, in the art of inclusion. But don't lie.
00:30:45.660 The lies are not going to help you. Okay, speaking of civic education,
00:30:48.620 President Trump has a proposal for the Smithsonian that I absolutely love. We will get to that,
00:30:52.800 and then we'll get to the latest ravings of James Tallarico, who right now is slated to become the
00:30:57.600 next senator from Texas. President Trump posted an essay, an absolute essay, to Truth Social
00:31:06.720 on history, on the kind of history lesson that George W. Bush kind of wants to deny, I guess.
00:31:13.460 But this specifically focuses on George Washington. Trump writes,
00:31:18.760 I'm calling on the Smithsonian Institution to honor the life and legacy of George Washington,
00:31:22.260 America's Greatest Hero, with a five-year exhibition at the National Museum of American
00:31:26.420 History, beginning now, continuing through February 22nd, 2032, the 300th anniversary
00:31:31.380 of Washington's birth. It's a great idea. 300th anniversary of Washington's birth.
00:31:36.140 You think, hold on, wait, the Smithsonian wasn't going to do, the Smithsonian should have an entire
00:31:41.940 wing of the Smithsonian just permanently dedicated to George Washington. You're telling me we don't
00:31:46.920 really have many, if any, exhibits on him at all, and you weren't planning something for the
00:31:52.000 300th anniversary of his birth? That's crazy. The whole point of the Smithsonian is to promote
00:31:56.200 American history. To promote America, they do the opposite. And then he says, I'm calling on
00:32:00.520 the Smithsonian to erect a 30-foot colossus statue of the father of our country outside the museum
00:32:04.980 to replace the so-called infinity sculpture that stands there today. That strange modernist
00:32:09.620 sculpture tells visitors nothing about America, inspires no one, and honors none of our great
00:32:13.260 American heroes. I don't know if we have the picture. Do we have the picture? No, maybe we
00:32:15.900 don't. The current statue outside the Smithsonian is some weird obelisk with like a doodly-doo
00:32:21.660 on top. I think that's this specific technical name is a doodly-doo. It's this weird like little
00:32:26.560 squiggly thing on top of an obelisk. That's the best we can do. Trump says, no, let's replace it
00:32:31.740 with a colossus statue, like a big, giant George Washington. Right now, he says, the sculpture
00:32:39.980 doesn't honor our great American heroes. George Washington does. He's easily America's greatest
00:32:43.560 hero. Fact check, true. Without him, our country and our freedoms would not exist. Yet during our
00:32:48.040 nation's 250th anniversary year. The museum has failed to give George Washington and her other
00:32:52.160 founding fathers the celebration they deserve. And then he goes on to talk about Washington's
00:32:56.580 crossing the Delaware in 1776, the Battle of Trenton, both of which, Simon Knowles actually,
00:33:02.780 who does have a statue in Washington, D.C. now, I'm very happy about and grateful for. He was on
00:33:06.800 both of those voyages and those battles. But you don't see a lot about it. You see instead from the
00:33:12.780 Smithsonian, the Center for Restorative History, a decolonization plane, all the stuff that's 0.53
00:33:17.900 contrary to promoting America. And so Trump is totally right about this. I can't read the whole 0.87
00:33:22.900 thing. But for the people who say that Trump is just, you know, he kind of shoots from the hip
00:33:26.900 and he just, he's all emotion and he's not that thoughtful. This is pretty thoughtful. This is a
00:33:31.340 full essay on the significance of George Washington in American history and why our institutions need
00:33:36.680 to promote him. And this stuff can be really enduring because I like a tax cut as much as
00:33:42.000 the next guy. Putting up a big statue of George Washington at the Smithsonian is actually more
00:33:49.160 important than a tax cut. I know that the policy wonks and the materialists and the economists
00:33:53.440 are going to whine and cry over this, but it's true. A beautiful building in our nation's capital,
00:34:00.320 a big statue of an American hero, is actually more important for the nation than a tax cut
00:34:07.060 or than ticking GDP up a little bit.
00:34:09.060 I'm not, I don't mean to totally minimize
00:34:11.080 economic and material prosperity.
00:34:13.000 That's important too.
00:34:14.540 But the soul of the nation matters.
00:34:16.760 A nation is more than just GDP.
00:34:18.400 A nation is more than just a marketplace.
00:34:20.500 This is why when you replace all the people in a country, 0.95
00:34:22.640 you get a different kind of country.
00:34:23.880 That's a lot of our demographic debate right now.
00:34:27.300 If you have a country
00:34:28.340 where we have relative material prosperity,
00:34:30.880 but we all hate ourselves,
00:34:32.960 you're gonna have a bad country
00:34:34.680 where we don't valorize our great heroes,
00:34:37.400 where we actually tear them down instead,
00:34:38.980 you're going to have a bad country.
00:34:40.000 You're going to have the kind of country
00:34:41.420 that ends up electing socialists
00:34:43.040 and you're going to end up undermining
00:34:44.360 even your material prosperity.
00:34:46.820 You have to focus on the spiritual,
00:34:49.920 the historical, the spirit of a people,
00:34:53.540 what we mean,
00:34:54.320 what the political community is as such.
00:34:55.780 Really, really good stuff.
00:34:57.080 Very, very important.
00:34:58.480 And I look forward to the Smithsonian getting in line.
00:35:00.400 Okay, now let's turn to Tallarico,
00:35:02.800 one of those awful politicians
00:35:04.240 that we may very soon elect.
00:35:06.460 Before we get to that, though,
00:35:08.320 my favorite comment on Friday
00:35:09.500 is from Hard Boiled Entertainment.
00:35:11.440 Says, Napoleon or not,
00:35:13.980 Trump's speech was certainly dynamite.
00:35:17.380 Do you get it?
00:35:18.140 I said that Trump was our Napoleon,
00:35:19.840 which people,
00:35:20.640 they didn't know how to interpret that.
00:35:22.620 Because there are good aspects to that,
00:35:24.200 there are bad aspects to that.
00:35:25.400 It's a kind of ambiguous observation.
00:35:27.980 Trump is our Napoleon.
00:35:28.760 He's the child of the revolution,
00:35:30.180 but he's the undoing of the revolution.
00:35:32.160 But he's our Napoleon.
00:35:33.160 He's this world historic figure, but I'm a sucker for a good pun.
00:35:37.160 Napoleon or not, the speech was dynamite.
00:35:40.360 Am I right?
00:35:41.340 Okay.

00:37:22.200 So speaking of these crazy, awful candidates who could take over, and speaking of education,
00:37:26.820 James Tallarico has a suggestion for how we can improve the world. 0.75
00:37:31.000 He wants it to be run like we're all kindergartners.
00:37:36.400 What if we ran our world like we run a kindergarten classroom?
00:37:40.860 Because at the end of the day, aren't we all just really big kindergartners?
00:37:44.880 Okay, what is he?
00:37:46.220 This is the kind of stuff.
00:37:47.180 so i don't want to this is the kind of stuff pedophiles say i'm not accusing him of being
00:37:53.880 a pedophile i'm really not but this is the kind of hey we're all hey kid i'm just like you i'm
00:38:00.660 just like a big kindergartner it's weird it's creepy and i'm i'm actually not accusing him of
00:38:06.300 any literal perversions here i know he's got a girlfriend she lives in canada she goes to
00:38:12.040 another school. I know she is speaking to schools. But regardless, this way of thinking
00:38:17.800 is perverse. I'm not saying it's sexually perverse. I'm not saying it's literally.
00:38:22.960 I'm saying it's perverse in a more figurative way. One, if he says we should run our country
00:38:28.960 like we run a kindergarten classroom, what that suggests is that our political leaders should have
00:38:34.640 absolute total control over us in loco parentis. They should have the kind of control over us
00:38:41.380 that a parent has over a little child, like a five-year-old, which is scary. That is, for all
00:38:47.300 the people that talk about Trump's authoritarian and supposedly tyrannical kind of rhetoric,
00:38:51.740 that is more tyrannical rhetoric than anything we've ever heard from Trump. But beyond that,
00:38:57.000 I hate this type of self-conception. Because even if Tallarico here is just imprecise with his words
00:39:02.540 and is considering himself to be like a kindergartner too, not just like the kindergarten
00:39:07.000 teacher, but like a kindergartner. I hate that. We're not just big kindergartners.
00:39:13.440 We shouldn't be surprised or delighted when we find ourselves adulting, to use that phrase from
00:39:20.240 the millennials. This is really, I don't feel like a kindergartner. I don't know about you.
00:39:23.840 I don't feel like a kindergartner. I feel like a grown man. When I was a child, I did the things
00:39:28.540 of a child. But when I became a man, I put away the things of a child. Who said that?
00:39:33.420 was that I think it was a very wise man
00:39:36.420 a long time ago writing to the Corinthians.
00:39:39.320 Now we don't, it's a little confusing in the Bible
00:39:42.620 because our Lord calls on us to be childlike.
00:39:46.320 We should be childlike in that we should have innocence.
00:39:49.220 We should pursue innocence.
00:39:50.940 Even people who have traded away their innocence
00:39:54.320 and gotten involved in a lot of vice,
00:39:55.760 you actually can regain your innocence.
00:39:57.220 That is possible.
00:39:58.400 Don't let the devil get you down on that.
00:39:59.940 You actually can do that.
00:40:00.860 So that's one thing our Lord is calling on us to do
00:40:02.500 is to be innocent and to be humble.
00:40:05.960 We don't want to be just so puffed up with ourselves
00:40:09.460 and look down on everyone
00:40:11.680 and every other thing in the world.
00:40:13.060 So we want to have a childlike quality,
00:40:15.180 but we don't want to be childish.
00:40:18.520 Childlike, it's all the good features of a child.
00:40:20.980 The wonder of a child, the humility of a child,
00:40:23.200 seeing the world through the eyes of a child.
00:40:25.060 But childish, it's all the bad qualities of a child.
00:40:27.580 It's the temper tantra.
00:40:29.080 It's the ingratitude. 0.71
00:40:32.500 It's the ignorance.
00:40:35.340 It's the lack of discipline.
00:40:37.660 We don't want that.
00:40:38.700 And that is exactly what the Democrats are selling us.
00:40:41.760 We're all like big kindergartners, aren't we?
00:40:44.420 No, I'm not.
00:40:45.840 I'm not like that.
00:40:46.880 I don't want to live in a country like that.
00:40:48.760 The Democrats want us to live in a country like that because it makes us a lot easier to control.
00:40:53.080 Meanwhile, Tallarico, more recently than that older video, Tallarico is doubling down on God as non-binary. 0.58
00:41:02.500 He was acquitted by the Senate, but I want to move on to our next question for you.
00:41:07.500 In 2021, you said God is both masculine and feminine and everything in between. 0.57
00:41:12.380 God is non-binary. Do you still stand by that? 0.94
00:41:16.300 I was being provocative with that statement. I get that.
00:41:19.260 What I was trying to say is that you can't use human categories to define God.
00:41:23.520 And that's not controversial theologically.
00:41:26.120 Okay, so he's trying to weasel out of the statement that he has been pilloried for,
00:41:32.320 the statement that God is non-binary, that he's applying a radical gender ideology to God.
00:41:36.620 Much as he used, he tried to instrumentalize the Blessed Virgin Mary in order to promote abortion.
00:41:42.320 I mean, really satanic stuff. 0.74
00:41:45.380 But he has a pretty good answer, at least in the first part.
00:41:47.360 He says, look, I was being a little provocative with that statement, I'm aware.
00:41:50.780 But what I just, the point that I was making is that you can't apply human categories to God.
00:41:56.120 And that's not theologically controversial.
00:41:59.060 He said about the religion,
00:42:03.000 the central fact of which is that God becomes a man.
00:42:07.340 This to me, I don't see anybody talking about this.
00:42:10.520 But if you read James Tallarico in the worst ways,
00:42:14.860 then he is like the Antichrist, basically.
00:42:17.100 But if you try to read him in the absolute most charitable way,
00:42:21.500 he's also kind of like Antichrist.
00:42:23.580 If you try to read him even in the most charitable way,
00:42:26.120 he knows absolutely nothing about theology, about the Christian religion. He's not a Christian in 0.81
00:42:31.120 any meaningful sense. I mean, don't forget, James Tallarico has previously come out, and he said
00:42:34.700 that all religions are equal paths to God. Not just that all religions can, in some ways,
00:42:42.200 in partial ways, point to God, which is a statement that I agree with. I do think that's
00:42:46.360 true. I think natural paganism and Judaism, even to some degree Islam, can point to God.
00:42:53.100 even the non-theistic pagan religions sort of can in some ways. But he says, no, they're all
00:42:59.700 equal paths to God. So right there, that is a statement that says, I'm not a Christian. I don't
00:43:04.020 really believe in Christianity. But then to come out and say, you can't apply human categories to
00:43:07.600 God. How about the categories like father, son, man, taking on flesh and dwelling among us?
00:43:16.320 I mean, the central mystery of the Christian faith is the Trinity, which is that God is
00:43:22.980 three distinct persons in one divine unity, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. The Holy Ghost
00:43:28.080 being the bond of love between the Father and the Son. And the central fact of the Christian faith
00:43:31.460 is that God becomes a man. He doesn't become a they, them. He doesn't become a she, him, he, her. 0.93
00:43:42.540 God has pronouns, and he asks us to respect them. He's just wrong in every way about every single
00:43:50.440 thing. No candidate drives me crazier. I'll take a hundred Abdul El-Sayed's over one James
00:43:55.120 Tallarico. It's not even close. We got to hope. The one thing that's like starting to give me
00:44:01.860 hope in the midterm elections is that candidate quality will save us here because he's just
00:44:05.820 awful. Okay. Last little bit here on Mr. Tallarico. Tallarico, as he is, according to the
00:44:13.080 Calci markets, ahead, as he's leading in the polls, as he's actually, he's looking pretty good.
00:44:20.200 I think Ken Paxton is a better candidate than people give him credit for, but Tallarico is
00:44:23.240 looking all right. Tallarico trots out these endorsements by Republicans. He says, Republican
00:44:29.200 leaders endorsing James Tallarico. I'm just going to read some of the names here. James Edge, Jimmy
00:44:36.160 Don Aycock, Steve Bartlett, Dorothy Burton, Ryan Davenport, Donna Halstead, Deborah Hankinson,
00:44:45.060 kimberly praist johnson susan lewis king adam kinzinger david maxwell uh shane phelps
00:44:55.360 tom phillips bennett ratcliffe have you heard of any of these people
00:45:00.020 have you heard of any of these people yes you've heard of one of them the person you've heard of
00:45:06.580 is adam kinzinger you've only heard of him because trump made him cry this is there is no
00:45:11.980 wave of Republicans endorsing James Tallarico. There is no moderation whatsoever. In other words,
00:45:22.620 there is no cross-party appeal to these Democrat candidates. If the Democrats win the House and
00:45:29.760 the Senate, they will win the House and the Senate because the Republicans have been demoralized.
00:45:33.660 There are no crossover voters. There's no one who voted for Trump in 2024 who is now voting for
00:45:39.700 James Tallarico got his non-binary. Who is now voting for Abdul El-Sayed? Who is now voting for 0.52
00:45:46.520 any of these people? All the people campaigning with Hassan Piker who says that America deserved
00:45:50.740 9-11 and he wipes his rear end with the American flag and that we should murder Republicans. 0.97
00:45:56.300 There is no crossover vote. It is simply a question of motivation. Right now, the Democrats 0.99
00:46:01.960 are super motivated to go out and endorse these lunatics. And the Republicans are feeling slightly 0.94
00:46:08.460 demoralized because of the historical situation of it being the first midterm election after the
00:46:12.380 republicans won unified government in part because they don't like the iran war in part because
00:46:16.960 economic challenges persist even though a lot of economic good has been done during the first year
00:46:24.120 and a half of the trump administration compared to the biden administration nevertheless it's not
00:46:27.080 enough for a lot of people and so that it's that demoralization and the question for the republicans
00:46:31.460 is not how do we pull over the people who are you know now going to go vote for democrats the
00:46:35.700 question is simply, how do we motivate our guys to go out and vote? It's not that the coalition
00:46:39.940 has flipped. It's just, it's just potentially gotten smaller. Okay. The rest of the show

00:47:14.020 Ah, can you hear me okay?
