The Michael Knowles Show - Ep. 655 - They Can Do Anything

00:00:00.000 If the left did not have double standards, they would have no standards at all. We're seeing this

00:00:04.640 play out now, especially as the media are convinced that we're moving into a democratic

00:00:09.720 administration. You're seeing a huge shift in the way that the media are covering politicians,

00:00:15.300 the way the politicians are reacting to the people. Even some prominent left-wingers are

00:00:20.520 admitting this fact. Sarah Silverman, criticize her all you want, but at least she was honest.

00:00:25.680 Just recently on a podcast, she was describing why it seems like the left plays by a totally

00:00:30.280 different set of rules, and she admitted it's because liberals get to do whatever they want. 0.99

00:00:35.440 So what do you think is the difference between you saying it and somebody else saying it and

00:00:40.300 not getting away with it? It seems like you get away with a lot of stuff because you're so

00:00:43.740 funny, but some of it's pretty dark. I think it's the intention behind it. This is a math term,

00:00:52.160 but it's kind of like the absolute power of the joke. Especially back then, I always said the

00:00:56.780 opposite of what I thought, and that was the joke, kind of. And then hopefully the truth transcends

00:01:03.860 that I don't really feel this way, not to break it down in the least funny possible way. But it's

00:01:09.940 also interesting, too, because that comedy I did, you're right. It was like, oh, it's okay because

00:01:17.320 you know I don't mean it. But then it also is kind of like, we're liberal, so we can say anything.

00:01:24.080 So we can say the words that are unsayable or whatever. You know I don't mean it, so I can say

00:01:29.220 it. There is kind of like a liberal douchiness about it, I think, in retrospect. I mean, I don't

00:01:35.300 know. It's a weird balance.

00:01:37.580 You know, not the phrase I would have come up with, but probably totally precise. That's what

00:01:42.520 we're seeing play out right now. This is a shifting of standards that is only going to

00:01:50.080 get worse and worse and worse over the next weeks and probably the next years. And hopefully

00:01:55.220 we can still push back against it. I'm Michael Knowles. This is The Michael Knowles Show.

00:02:07.360 Welcome back to the show. Speaking of shifting standards, we yesterday were talking about that

00:02:12.120 gal who played on the Vanderbilt football team for like five minutes and then they lost 41 to nothing.

00:02:18.780 And I don't know, maybe those were unrelated events. My favorite comment from yesterday from

00:02:22.240 Christophe Rodriguez, who says, with the way Vanderbilt plays, I thought they always had women

00:02:26.960 on the team. That's not nice. That's playing on old standards and stereotypes. And it's not politically

00:02:35.540 correct to say that. The left is replacing old standards with new standards, double standards

00:02:44.260 for themselves. They're replacing the conventional standards with political correctness. This is a

00:02:49.720 point we were discussing quite a lot yesterday because I think that the right totally misunderstands

00:02:56.200 this moment. They misunderstand how to combat these new standards of political correctness that

00:03:01.620 the left is foisting on them. I'll give you a perfect example of this. Came out yesterday from

00:03:06.220 Steve Schmidt. Steve Schmidt is, he says he's a Republican. He's not really a Republican. He's a

00:03:11.600 liberal Republican. He ran a lot of squishy Republican campaigns and lost. And his job basically as a

00:03:17.980 consultant was to enrich himself by losing Republican races and then saying really nice things about

00:03:24.180 Democrats. He's a court jester conservative, you might call him, as the phrase that I've been using the

00:03:29.980 past few weeks. And as we've been seeing around us a whole lot. So yesterday, Steve Schmidt decides he's,

00:03:38.020 he's got the strange new respect of liberals. All the liberals are very nice to him. He is

00:03:41.840 functionally a liberal. He tweets out one of the most vile rants against Ann Coulter that I've ever read.

00:03:49.820 And people have very strong feelings about Ann Coulter. I really like Ann Coulter, but some people,

00:03:53.840 they hate her and she's terrible and she's this and she's that. This is what Steve Schmidt had to say

00:03:58.680 about her. To her on, on Twitter, you are a cancer. You are a vile and disgusting human being who has 1.00

00:04:05.700 made herself a multimillionaire preying on the weak and the stupid. You're a racist and a fascist. 1.00

00:04:10.760 FDR said, judge me by my enemies. I'm delighted to be yours. Trump will lose. He will be disgraced. 1.00

00:04:15.540 And one day somewhere, someone, hopefully many years from now, who was born after these days end,

00:04:20.220 will read your obituary and understand what an open and fetid sore you were on our politics.

00:04:27.160 It will be a small paragraph for an unaccomplished and not long remembered lonely person who sowed

00:04:32.860 hate, vitriol, and division. You are pathetic. You can see Steve Schmidt's very upset about hate, 1.00

00:04:38.800 vitriol, and division. What did Ann do to deserve this kind of reaction? She tweeted out an article 0.93

00:04:44.960 that criticized Steve Schmidt's career. Not this personal kind of thing. And this is what he says.

00:04:50.560 Imagine speaking to a woman this way. Any woman, your worst enemy, woman you totally hate. Imagine if you

00:04:57.040 were a real man, not like Steve Schmidt, but an actual man speaking to a woman this way. Absolutely

00:05:02.580 disgusting. So I made this point. I said, this is not the way that men should speak to women. 1.00

00:05:08.580 And what I heard, first of all, obviously, if it had been flipped, if it had been a conservative man

00:05:15.040 talking about a liberal woman this way, the guy would probably be at Rikers right now. He'd probably be

00:05:19.780 in Alcatraz, ostracized from the country perhaps. But because it's a liberal man saying this about a

00:05:25.740 conservative woman, he's allowed to get away with it. But no man should be able to say this about

00:05:29.380 any woman. So I point this out. And the left responds to me. And they say, a lot of liberal 0.53

00:05:34.400 women, they say, oh, he's not saying it about a woman. He's saying about Ann Coulter. Oh, yeah,

00:05:38.100 it doesn't matter. Ann Coulter gets whatever, whatever she deserves. Steve Schmidt responded to me. He said,

00:05:42.860 oh, yeah, I'm glad that I said that about Ann Coulter. Very womanish response. Not womanly. That's when 0.98

00:05:49.020 women behave like women. But womanish, it's when men behave with the worst characteristics and 1.00

00:05:53.900 stereotypes of women. And one response I got broadly from the left was they said,

00:05:59.000 Michael, I thought you guys hate identity politics. Who cares if a man says it to a woman or a woman

00:06:04.840 says it to a man or a man says it to a man or a woman says it to a woman? Doesn't matter. There's

00:06:08.400 no difference. Yes, there is. Yes, there is. Men should behave differently in front of women 1.00

00:06:14.300 than they would in front of other men. There is greater latitude for the way that men behave at the

00:06:21.720 bar with the men and the sailors than there is for the way that men behave in front of women.

00:06:27.640 Any woman. I don't care if you don't like her. That's an old standard. It's not identity politics. 1.00

00:06:33.000 That's called chivalry. Edmund Burke, the great conservative philosopher, said in Reflections

00:06:38.580 on the Revolution in France, he lamented. He said, the age of chivalry is gone. That of sophisters, 0.97

00:06:43.240 economists, and calculators has succeeded, and the glory of Europe is extinguished forever.

00:06:47.060 However, chivalry is the standard. Identity politics is the new politically correct left

00:06:52.600 wing standard that the left is trying to replace chivalry with. And a bunch of even sort of moderates

00:07:00.640 or conservatives will come out and say, ah, well, we should have no standards at all.

00:07:05.740 We don't want identity politics, but if we don't want identity politics, we can't have chivalry either.

00:07:10.700 If we don't want the new politically correct standard, we can't have the old standards either.

00:07:14.200 That's BS. That's ridiculous. We need to have those old standards. If we don't have those old 0.98

00:07:19.400 standards, if we don't have some standard at all, some understanding of virtue and behavior and the

00:07:24.520 way we ought to relate to society, then we have no political vision. Political visions require,

00:07:31.580 politics just means how we all get along together. Political vision requires that you understand and

00:07:37.580 have some sense of how we all get along together. And it's this misunderstanding is part of the big

00:07:43.840 reason that, that Oscar nominated actresses are becoming, are pretending to be men now and men are

00:07:51.380 behaving this way in front of women. And we're all so vicious to one another regardless of our sex and

00:07:56.140 even regardless of our, of our positions in society. Because we, we no longer have a standard. And when

00:08:04.480 that happens, you have social collapse. It's really difficult. You know, you see this in certain

00:08:09.760 areas of the country where, where maybe jobs have been shipped overseas and standards have collapsed.

00:08:16.200 You're in, you're in pretty bad straits. And actually a guy who was raised in one of these

00:08:19.860 situations, raised in a trailer park with no clear path to success, kicked out of high school multiple

00:08:24.260 times and faced with becoming a father in his teens is Jason Waller. The definition of a true underdog.

00:09:24.740 podcast at true underdog.com or anywhere you get your podcasts. Total, total double standard. The new,

00:09:35.000 the new standards are the problem. But the fact that we don't have old standards anymore,

00:09:40.120 we don't have any whatsoever as conservatives is a big problem too. I'll give you an example of this

00:09:46.000 kind of the dishonesty of political correctness, of wokeism, of whatever term you want to use.

00:09:52.260 Nike. Nike might be the single wokest company on the face of the earth. Colin Kaepernick,

00:10:00.720 back in years and years ago when he was still playing football, decides to protest the American

00:10:05.880 flag, the symbol of the country. What does Nike do? Well-known American company that ships job

00:10:12.060 overseas and uses overseas labor and cheap labor and slave labor. Nike hires him to be their spokesman.

00:10:17.940 Taking a stand against the American flag. Nike was going to produce a shoe with the revolutionary

00:10:22.640 war flag on the back, the Betsy Ross flag. Colin Kaepernick said, no, you can't do that.

00:10:27.880 The American revolution's bad. You can't, you can't have that shoe. So Nike, as woke as they get,

00:10:33.420 specifically in this alleged issue of civil rights, because that's how Colin Kaepernick is,

00:10:38.760 is pretending that he is supporting. Nike has apparently been lobbying against a bill that

00:10:48.120 would ban imports of products made from China using slave Uyghur labor. They were, well, that's so 1.00

00:10:56.140 weird. I thought Nike was for civil rights. But we know that China, where they're getting a lot of

00:11:01.360 cheap, cheap products. We know that China uses slave labor. We know that they're, they're putting 0.88

00:11:06.580 a whole population Uyghurs into labor camps. So surely Nike wouldn't want to use that slave labor, 1.00

00:11:14.200 right? Wrong. They actually lobbied against it. Not just Nike, Coca-Cola. Apple also sought to weaken

00:11:19.720 legislation that would bar U.S. companies from relying on the forced labor of Uyghurs and other 1.00

00:11:26.540 Muslim minorities, Muslim minorities in particular in China's Xinjiang region. This is according to

00:11:31.400 Business Insider. Well, of course, because they, they want to pretend that they're woke, right?

00:11:38.080 They want to foist this kind of woke, politically correct standard on you, but they don't want to

00:11:45.000 follow it themselves. And Nike isn't really the problem here. The problem is not the, the deeply held

00:11:52.220 political beliefs of Nike and Coca-Cola and Apple. The problem is the cowardice of Nike, Coca-Cola and

00:11:59.500 Apple, because they will acquiesce to the most fanciful activism of their wokest employees. And

00:12:06.960 they will acquiesce to the, the most often most anti-American elements in public activism in the

00:12:12.520 country. They have no standards. And so they just go along and follow the almighty dollar. I'm all for

00:12:19.400 making a buck, but you have to do that within a moral framework. And these guys are not doing that

00:12:23.820 at all. Now, the question is, when we point out this double standard, this hypocrisy, is Nike going

00:12:29.580 to pay for it? No, no, they're not. I, a lot of times conservatives want to point out and say, ha ha,

00:12:37.400 the liberals say they believe in this, but then they violate that. The perfect example of course is

00:12:44.480 the liberals say that they're tolerant, but actually they're behaving in an intolerant way.

00:12:50.320 So much for the tolerant left, right? This is a line that's become a cliche.

00:12:54.640 And the reason that it has no effect is that the left doesn't care. The left knows that they're

00:13:01.460 intolerant. In fact, the father of the new left, Herbert Marcuse, wrote an essay in the 1960s called

00:13:08.120 Repressive Tolerance, where he explicitly says we should not tolerate conservatives. We should not

00:13:13.240 tolerate right-wing ideas. We should tolerate our ideas. And actually, the guy's got a point.

00:13:19.000 You can't, you, you can't tolerate everything. This is a finite world and we've got to have

00:13:25.200 boundaries on it. So for instance, you can't tolerate intolerance. You can, Chesterton made

00:13:30.380 this point. He said, there's a thought that stops thought. And that's the only thought that ought to

00:13:33.140 be stopped. There is speech that stops speech like the heckler's veto. And so you can't, or sedition

00:13:37.960 actually for that matter. It undercuts the first amendment. So obviously there are constraints here.

00:13:43.560 The left does not care about appearing hypocritical according to other standards. What they're trying

00:13:49.920 to do is replace those standards with new ones. The left doesn't care about the Uyghurs in China. 0.99

00:13:56.520 And we can, we can yell about the Uyghurs until we're blue in the face. It won't matter. 1.00

00:14:01.520 The left doesn't care about freedom, doesn't care about slavery. The, the point of the new standards

00:14:07.100 that they are foisting on us from the 1619 project all the way up to gender ideology, which we'll get to in

00:14:12.560 just a second with this actress in Hollywood. The point of it is purely negative. It is to overturn

00:14:19.840 the established order. The 1619 project is a great example. The 1619 project has as its central thesis

00:14:28.880 that the point of the American revolution was to preserve slavery. That, that is the thesis of the

00:14:34.780 whole thing. And the New York Times puts it out and spends millions of dollars promoting this and it

00:14:38.480 goes into classrooms. Academic historians, most of whom are left wing, come out and say, actually guys,

00:14:44.620 that's not true. There is no evidence of that. There's a lot of evidence to the contrary. The

00:14:50.740 New York Times finally, after months and months, has to make a correction and says, okay, actually,

00:14:55.720 yeah, no, that, that wasn't the reason for the American revolution. But they leave the article.

00:15:00.540 They keep putting money into the 1619 project because the point of the 1619 project is not to

00:15:06.740 follow a thesis about how slavery caused the American revolution, the protection of slavery rather. The

00:15:12.120 point of the 1619 project is to get you to hate your country. You see this with the sexual revolution, 0.91

00:15:18.680 the left constantly exploiting groups of people who have sort of unusual sexual desires. You see this

00:15:24.920 notably with the homosexual movement and the transsexual movement. Homosexual movement says 0.92

00:15:30.860 there are two sexes, men and women, and you are born with your innate sexual desires. It's not just a

00:15:37.760 preference that can change. It is a sexual orientation. You are born this way. Nobody would choose this,

00:15:43.520 right? These are all the things we've heard from that wing of the sexual revolution for decades now. 0.96

00:15:47.980 And therefore, we need to accept people's varying sexual desires. Okay, fair, fair enough argument,

00:15:55.920 right? But then you get the transsexual or transgender argument and they say there is no

00:16:00.200 such thing as biological sex. There are more sexes. Also, there are more gender expressions. Gender is

00:16:05.920 different than sex. How exactly? We can't quite tell. Men can become women. Women can become men. 0.60

00:16:11.040 And there's nothing innate or immutable about it. But of course, if that were the case,

00:16:15.160 first of all, if, if transgenderism is true, then there actually have to be real categories

00:16:20.340 of men and women, because it's the only way to explain how men could become women.

00:16:25.780 Also, there's this contradiction within transgenderism, which is that on the one hand,

00:16:29.880 sex is so essential to our sense of selves that if, if you are, if you look like a man,

00:16:35.540 but you feel like a woman, then you'll have to go through very expensive mutilations and 0.99

00:16:39.320 totally try to transform your body to more closely appear like the sex that you identify as.

00:16:44.160 But also, there's no such thing as real sex and a man really can become a woman and a woman can 0.99

00:16:48.560 become a man or anything in the middle. Well, those things don't compute. They don't add up.

00:16:54.300 The left doesn't care. The point of all of these ideas, all of which are, are internally inconsistent

00:16:59.540 with the broader left-wing program, the point of it is just to smash the old standards.

00:17:05.300 So it doesn't matter. One day, the kind of born this way argument works. Okay, good. Okay,

00:17:09.600 we'll do born this way. One day, gender as a social construct works. Okay, we'll use gender 0.93

00:17:13.660 as a social construct. Doesn't matter that they don't go along together. When you recognize that

00:17:17.920 the only thing they're after, the only thing the left is after is this kind of revolution that,

00:17:22.940 as Whitaker Chambers writes in, in Witness, Whitaker Chambers, a famous ex-communist, he's,

00:17:27.480 he's basically the guy who turned Reagan into a conservative through his book.

00:17:30.880 He says, the difference between freedom and communism, it's not that they're new ideologies.

00:17:38.840 Communism is the second oldest ideology in the world that goes back to the Garden of Eden when

00:17:42.980 the serpent told Eve, ye should be as gods. Ye shall be as gods. You can do whatever you want.

00:17:49.080 You can be whatever you want. And of course, that's not the case because we're in a finite world.

00:17:54.720 And this brings us to our friend, Ellen Page. I can't say that. I'm going to, this podcast is

00:18:01.080 going to be taken down if I use the phrase Ellen Page. I will admit something. I have no idea who

00:18:07.640 Ellen Page is. I wouldn't recognize her. I couldn't pick her out of a lineup. I don't think I've seen

00:18:12.540 her movies. Somebody told me she was in Inception and I did see that movie, but I don't remember her.

00:18:17.280 I don't, I haven't seen her stuff, but apparently she's a famous actress and she was a lesbian. 1.00

00:18:22.840 Apparently, by the way, there is a connection to Ellen Page. During 2015, during the run-up to the

00:18:29.000 2016 election, Ellen Page, this very left-wing, then lesbian actress, walked up to Ted Cruz, 1.00

00:18:35.500 who also didn't recognize her, and starts picking a debate with him about LGBT rights and sexuality.

00:18:44.420 Now take a list. It wasn't particularly coherent. It's very funny. You can tell she's frustrated

00:18:47.520 that Cruz doesn't know who she is. This was her perspective in 2015.

00:18:52.840 What about the question about LGBT people getting fired for just strictly being gay or trans?

00:18:56.920 Well, what we're seeing right now is actually, we're seeing Bible-believing Christians being 0.99

00:19:04.200 persecuted. So, for example, one of the couples...

00:19:06.320 People are discriminating against LGBT people.

00:19:07.980 No, for living according to their faith. So, for example... 0.77

00:19:10.440 Yeah, but you think people would have used that argument in segregation era?

00:19:13.400 I'm happy to answer your question, but not to have a back-and-forth debate.

00:19:16.380 If they were murdering people, it would be wrong. But in Iran and ISIS, it is the governmental body 0.96

00:19:23.280 that is executing them for being homosexual. And why does the Obama administration not stand 0.57

00:19:28.180 against it?

00:19:28.820 I don't know. I would love to talk to Obama about it. That'd be great.

00:19:31.540 Well, good. Then we're agreed on that.

00:19:32.720 No, we're not. Don't do that.

00:19:35.160 And eventually, she just sort of walks away, says, listen, lady, you know, I've answered your

00:19:38.960 questions, and she goes away. And she's obviously dejected that he doesn't know who she is.

00:19:43.900 She's no longer a lesbian. So, Ellen Page is now identifying as Elliot Page,

00:19:51.980 which means, according to gender ideology, she has been a man the whole time. Nobody knew it.

00:19:58.900 She didn't even know it, but she has been a man because her true self, according to this Gnostic,

00:20:04.280 dualistic ideology of transgenderism, whereby your body has nothing to do with your true self.

00:20:09.280 Your true self is this purely metaphysical entity. She was always a man, 0.96

00:20:13.660 which means, because she was identifying as a lesbian. She likes chicks. It means that for 1.00

00:20:19.960 all these years, a straight white man has been stealing the roles of women and lesbians. 0.99

00:20:28.080 That's outrageous. That's a scandal. You know, the patriarchy strikes again. 0.99

00:20:33.540 She is a straight white male. She is therefore part of the problem. 1.00

00:20:40.920 She's not a man, right? She's obviously not a man. She's a woman. She's actually a petite woman, 1.00

00:20:45.000 as you can see in that video. She's not particularly masculine.

00:20:51.000 Now, what is the issue here? If she is a straight white man, is she going to be castigated in the way

00:20:56.900 that straight white men are by this left-wing culture? Now there are actually quotas. You're not

00:21:01.720 eligible for certain awards in Hollywood if you have too many straight white men in the movie.

00:21:09.040 So is she a straight white man? That's what she's saying she is. But not really, because everyone

00:21:14.980 knows that she's a woman and she's just identifying as a man. And she can do whatever she wants.

00:21:20.180 She can do whatever she wants. It just doesn't matter. People are not going to consider Ellen Page on

00:21:25.380 the same sexual category as Ted Cruz, for instance, or as me. They can do whatever they want. And I

00:21:35.760 think, look, we need to point out this hypocrisy. It's a big portion of this show is identifying that.

00:21:40.640 But we have to go further than that as conservatives. We need to recognize that they don't care

00:21:46.180 if we call them hypocrites. Some of them recognize the hypocrisy. Most of them don't even acknowledge 0.99

00:21:52.380 the existence of objective truth or an objective moral standard, right? One of the points of this

00:21:58.660 idea that gender is socially constructed, one of the points of this idea that intersectionality means

00:22:05.140 that only my suffering is the way that I can measure moral goodness in the world. One of the

00:22:10.580 points of progressivism explicitly is that there are no fixed laws to the universe. The early progressives

00:22:19.720 write about this in almost these exact words. There are no fixed laws. There is no eternally true

00:22:24.480 human nature or sexuality or whatever that everything is evolving and changing. And so they

00:22:30.340 can't, they can't be held to account for those standards because the standard they're foisting on

00:22:35.300 us is whatever they think, whatever the party says is right. We covered on my book show at PragerU,

00:22:41.500 1984, where history is always being rewritten. Standards are always being rewritten. Language is always

00:22:46.980 being rewritten and whatever the party says is right. Now that's become cliche to invoke, but there's a

00:22:54.220 reason that George Orwell saw that happening because that is what's happening right now. And the way to

00:23:00.940 fight that is not just to point out the hypocrisy. The way to fight that is to offer our own vision of

00:23:06.380 things. The left is giving people their vision. The conservatives are not giving people our vision

00:23:11.680 because we're too afraid to make claims about how we should live in the world, how families should

00:23:17.620 be recognized, how small local governments should be made up, the relationship between the local to

00:23:23.640 the national, how we ought to behave. Because we've thrown our hands up in the air and said, you do you.

00:23:28.200 If it doesn't scare the horses, if it doesn't hurt anybody else, that's fine. No. The reason that the

00:23:34.820 left is winning on the culture is because people don't want that. People don't want to throw their

00:23:39.180 hands up in the air. People want a vision. And conservatives have failed to do that. We need

00:23:44.660 to fight. Actually, speaking of Ted Cruz, Ted Cruz, one of the last elected Republicans who is actually

00:23:50.580 sticking by the fight and letting the legal process play out on the 2020 election, which we'll get to

00:23:55.880 in just one second. But I've got a more pressing problem, which is that sweet little Elisa deserves a

00:24:03.720 very nice Christmas present. And I'm very bad at picking out Christmas presents. I often go for

00:24:08.400 jewelry, but I don't really, I don't know that much about jewelry. And very often the good jewelry

00:24:13.000 is too expensive to afford. One of the most popular gifts you can possibly give for the holidays. Very

00:24:17.420 good reason for that. And especially if you stick with the classics. Fortunately, I've got the answer

00:25:40.780 There have been a lot of, there's been a lot of disinformation and misinformation about this 2020

00:25:45.280 election. 2020 election was almost a month ago today. Then for some reason, it took them a long

00:25:52.480 time to count those votes. On election night, it looked like Trump won pretty clearly. Then more

00:25:57.080 votes came in and then it looked like Joe Biden won. There have been some irregularities. There has

00:26:02.980 been some illegalities in, in some of these voting places. And the Trump team is promising that they're

00:26:09.340 going to prove that this was rigged and Trump won. Some, some of Trump's lawyers saying Trump won in a

00:26:14.220 landslide. Where does it stand now? A lot of the legal challenges have been dismissed out of court.

00:26:20.960 There have been, then been challenges in the legislatures of these states saying, look,

00:26:24.440 there's evidence of this fraud. You can't ignore this. You should decertify the vote.

00:26:27.820 Are they going to decertify the vote? It seems unlikely. Just historically speaking,

00:26:31.920 it seems very unlikely. So should we just give it up? Should we just concede today? I don't think so.

00:26:36.420 I don't think that we should delude ourselves and say there is a hundred percent chance Trump is

00:26:41.520 going to be declared the winner. I don't think that's true. I don't think that we should,

00:26:46.380 on the other hand, concede and say, no reason. Let's stop all these legal challenges before the

00:26:52.680 electors vote on the 14th. Let's just, let's just give it up. Don't think it would be good for the

00:26:57.160 country to give it. I don't think that's true either. I think there is a legal process. We should

00:27:02.900 fight through that legal process tooth and nail until the very end. And it would appear my friend

00:27:10.860 and podcast co-host Ted Cruz agrees with that as well. Senator Cruz just released this letter

00:27:17.000 yesterday. The statement is today, an emergency appeal was filed in the U.S. Supreme Court

00:27:22.920 challenging the election results in Pennsylvania. This appeal raises serious legal issues. And I

00:27:27.980 believe the court should hear the case on an expedited basis. What's the legal issue? There's

00:27:32.880 one in particular. It's not the Dominion stuff or the questions about the way even certain votes

00:27:38.560 were counted. You know, there are, some of those are more serious challenges than others,

00:27:42.720 but this is specific. The Pennsylvania constitution requires in-person voting except in narrow and

00:27:48.860 defined circumstances. Late last year, the Pennsylvania legislature passed a law that

00:27:53.480 purported to allow universal mail-in voting, notwithstanding the Pennsylvania constitutions

00:27:57.920 express prohibition of that. This appeal argues that Pennsylvania cannot change the rules in the

00:28:03.860 middle of the game. If Pennsylvania wants to change how voting occurs, the state must follow

00:28:09.280 the law to do so. This illegality was then compounded by a partisan Democrat Supreme Court

00:28:14.660 in Pennsylvania, which has issued multiple decisions that reflect their political and

00:28:18.060 ideological biases. Alito, Thomas, Gorsuch wrote correctly concerning the Pennsylvania court

00:28:24.040 this previous decision to count ballots received after election day that quote, there is a strong

00:28:28.600 likelihood that the state Supreme Court decision violates the federal constitution. This is a

00:28:33.740 very serious legal challenge to the results in Pennsylvania. The Supreme Court absolutely

00:28:38.140 should hear that out. There is absolutely no reason to concede the presidential election

00:28:43.900 before that is heard. Now you might say, even if Trump wins Pennsylvania, it's not enough

00:28:48.380 to push him over the top. Okay, fair enough. Fair enough. The Trump campaign is pursuing other

00:28:54.040 challenges in other states, but I don't even care. I don't care if Joe Biden has every single

00:29:03.000 electoral vote in the country except for Pennsylvania. I want the Supreme Court to hear

00:29:06.820 that case because the Pennsylvania election officials violated the law very, very clearly,

00:29:13.280 maybe in multiple cases, but certainly in that case because of in-person voting. Absolutely. It

00:29:17.780 should be heard out. Conservatives need to grow a spine. I'm glad that Ted Cruz has one and I hope

00:29:23.440 that the court takes that up. There are a lot of people, especially in the legacy media, a lot of

00:29:29.060 people are going squishy. That's why we need to replace the legacy media. If you are not a Daily

00:29:33.780 Wire member, now is the time to join because we've got some excellent stuff right around the corner

00:30:49.420 Ellen Page slash Elliot Page situation. And you'll remember that Ben famously, when he coined his

00:30:56.580 phrase, facts don't care about your feelings, it was because he was challenging gender ideology

00:30:59.960 to a very unladylike individual, transgender individual on television who then grabbed Ben 1.00

00:31:07.180 by the neck and said, if you don't cut that out, talking about genetics, I'm going to send you home 0.98

00:31:12.760 in an ambulance. So I'm sure Ben will have an interesting perspective on that. You can check

00:31:15.880 that out. We'll be right back with a lot more. So the Pennsylvania legal challenge, totally legit.

00:31:33.220 There is no question there whether or not the Trump campaign has the goods. You know, it's, it's,

00:31:38.500 no one could argue that Pennsylvania did not violate the Pennsylvania constitution. Other places,

00:31:45.000 it's less clear. There have been hearings in Arizona. There have been hearings all over the

00:31:50.500 country. There was a hearing in Michigan at which this issue of dominion and the software and the

00:31:57.180 voting machines has come up. There have been some fanciful theories about what happened in the voting

00:32:02.040 machines. I don't trust electronic voting generally, but we haven't gotten specifics yet. We haven't seen

00:32:08.340 the Trump legal team prove that there was not, not just that there could have been fraud, but that there

00:32:14.060 was fraud. Now we have in Michigan, the Trump team brought out a contractor for dominion for the

00:32:20.840 software that was used in the voting machines who insists that there was fraud. My name is Melissa

00:32:26.980 Caron. I am a resident of Wayne County. I have a background in it and cybersecurity. I was contracted

00:32:33.820 by PDS staffing to work with dominion voting systems, assisting with it at the TCF center.

00:32:40.180 What I witnessed at the TCF center was complete fraud. The whole 27 hours I was there, there was

00:32:48.460 batches of ballots being ran through the tabulating machines numerous times, being counted eight to 10

00:32:56.320 times. Also, the adjudication process, I witnessed numerous people walking up claiming they were both

00:33:04.580 Democrats saying they were sitting together judging ballots all night together, all day together. I

00:33:10.580 witnessed it all. I was on the main stage with all of the city officials. Daniel Baxter was in on the

00:33:17.300 whole thing. And I am under the impression 100% that at least 90% of those workers were all in on this. There

00:33:25.600 was not a single ballot the whole night, the whole 27 hours I was there that I saw that was for Donald

00:33:32.740 Trump. Not one, not a single ballot. That is, that is scary. There was something going on at that

00:33:41.060 department of elections. All right. So the first allegation she's making is pretty serious and it's

00:33:49.160 pretty specific that they were just running ballots through the machine multiple times so that one person's

00:33:53.380 vote, a Democratic vote would be counted multiple times, which of course is disenfranchising

00:33:57.840 Republicans. It's disenfranchising everybody actually, because, you know, the, the, every

00:34:03.740 illegal vote takes away a vote from, from an eligible voter. Okay. So that's a specific one. Can they

00:34:09.180 prove it? You know, they've got this woman's eyewitness testimony that is not, it's probably not

00:34:15.300 sufficient to overthrow an election, but you know, it's pretty significant. It's pretty specific.

00:34:20.440 Then there's another charge, which is that something was going on and no votes came in for Trump and all

00:34:28.100 the votes were for Biden. This, I have no reason not to believe it's true. This sort of thing does

00:34:34.000 go on. We don't know if it went on. Well, we don't know if it went on at all. And if it did, we don't

00:34:39.840 know that it would have gone on to the degree that it could sway thousands or tens of thousands of

00:34:45.640 votes or presidential election because it happened in multiple states. But I'm not saying it didn't

00:34:50.820 happen. I'm not saying it did happen. The only issue for the Trump legal team though, is that

00:34:55.760 this charge, the second charge more or less amounts to something's going on. I'm telling you,

00:35:01.780 something's up. Something's fishy. Yeah, I know. You don't say, obviously something's fishy. Obviously

00:35:06.760 there were tons of irregularities. I don't mean to be angry with this woman. She's, it's good that

00:35:12.680 she's coming forward and testifying. That argument is not going to be sufficient. I wish it were

00:35:17.840 sufficient, but it won't be. No court is going to hear that argument. Frankly, I don't think any

00:35:22.060 legislature is going to hear that argument and say, okay, now we're going to decertify a vote. 0.96

00:35:25.300 Now we're going to overturn the election. That is not going to work. And that's unfortunate. I wish it

00:35:33.520 did, but you know, there is fraud that goes on in every election. And unless you can really drill down

00:35:39.200 and prove that it was widespread and you can show where it happened, then probably it's not going

00:35:44.280 to hold up in court. Another guy over here in Michigan, another guy who was a poll watcher,

00:35:49.760 gets to another aspect of these irregularities that seem to have taken place in a lot of places,

00:35:54.120 namely that Republicans were not admitted to watch the poll count. Take a listen.

00:35:59.200 I am an unaffiliated Michigan voter who was trained by the GOP to be a poll challenger on Wednesday,

00:36:04.820 November 4th, beginning in the late morning until around 8 PM, because I was told that they

00:36:08.900 needed help. They were understaffed. I witnessed the room erupt in thunderous applause and derogatory

00:36:14.200 cheering as Republican poll workers were picked off one by one and ejected from the room repeatedly

00:36:19.640 by police escort throughout the day. By the end of the day, they had picked off so many GOP poll

00:36:24.360 workers that there were probably only a few dozen left to monitor all of the processing stations in

00:36:28.660 the room, which I'm told was between 1.30 and 1.60. So this is very specific, right? He's saying,

00:36:34.780 yeah, these Republicans were kicked out. A very small number were allowed to remain.

00:36:40.180 So whenever you see the PolitiFact fact check, there was a Republican poll watcher somewhere.

00:36:44.460 Okay, where were all the rest of them? And by the way, if that poll watcher had to stand

00:36:47.620 even six feet away, but certainly 25 feet away, as we've heard in some cases,

00:36:51.520 then the poll watcher is not going to do very much. I couldn't see what's on a ballot six feet away.

00:36:55.960 I could barely see what's on a ballot six inches away.

00:36:57.600 Okay. So that challenge, very specific, means that votes were counted illegally. We know that

00:37:04.400 this happened. We know it happened in Georgia. We know, for instance, in Georgia, we were told

00:37:09.700 they had to shut down the vote counting in certain places at 10.30 at night. And then the poll watchers

00:37:15.080 went home. And then secretly vote counting went on until 1.30 in the morning. We know that they made

00:37:19.220 up a story about how a pipe burst. And that is why the poll watchers had to go home and we had to

00:37:26.340 stop counting the vote. BS. Not, not true. No evidence that that's true. A lot of evidence

00:37:32.420 to the contrary. So those are, that's where the challenges are. But here's the problem.

00:37:40.180 Well, I think most of those kinds of testimonies are legitimate and they point to something that is

00:37:47.080 legitimate. But is it going to move the needle? Bill Barr, the attorney general says, quote,

00:37:53.940 to date, we have not seen fraud on a scale that could have affected a different outcome in the

00:37:59.760 election. There has been one assertion that that would be systemic fraud and that would be the claim

00:38:05.700 that machines were programmed essentially to skew the election results. And the DHS and DOJ have looked

00:38:11.600 into that. And so far, we haven't seen anything to substantiate that. I have no doubt that these

00:38:20.500 machines could have been open to that hacking. I have no doubt that the Democrats would cheat to do

00:38:27.320 it and, and have cheated in certain places, not through the voting machines, but through other

00:38:34.800 means. But the problem for the Trump legal team, as time dwindles, we're less than two weeks out,

00:38:39.720 what are we, we're 12 days out from the electoral college vote, is you've got to prove that it did

00:38:46.500 happen? I don't blame Bill Barr for saying he hasn't found evidence of fraud. I'm sure he's

00:38:50.780 looking for evidence of fraud. I think he's a straight shooter. I don't know. I only met the

00:38:53.780 guy once, but he seems like a straight shooter to me. And his career, I think, backs that up.

00:38:58.840 And they haven't shown it. I'm waiting. Sidney Powell hasn't shown it. Maybe she's showing it in

00:39:06.240 court. I hope so. I'm just saying the time, the time is running out. I, by the way, I don't think

00:39:11.860 that that is the fact that we haven't seen this hard evidence to a degree that would sway a judge

00:39:17.320 to overturn an election. I don't think that's a reason for us to suddenly trust the election

00:39:22.820 officials or even to trust the election result. We'll have to trust the election result, depending

00:39:28.360 on how the electoral college votes, because that's actually the way that our constitution sets up the

00:39:32.380 election of presidents. But in terms of the people voting at the polling stations, yeah, I don't,

00:39:36.600 I think we should be skeptical of that sort of thing. And I don't think that's conspiratorial.

00:39:41.860 I don't think that's kooky or you're wearing a tinfoil hat. Of course, we should be skeptical.

00:39:46.240 And by the way, the left gets to be skeptical. How come the left gets to be skeptical

00:39:50.260 with, with far less evidence, far, far less grounds for their skepticism of the government

00:39:57.120 than we are? You saw this just a couple nights ago on MSNBC. Joy Reid, one of my favorite people

00:40:03.060 on MSNBC, my doppelganger is my first favorite, but Joy Reid is my second because she is really kooky. 1.00

00:40:09.820 Joy Reid comes out and is just talking to a guest about how they're a little distrustful

00:40:16.780 of the COVID vaccine. Here's why.

00:40:19.960 You were part of the Moderna trial, and it looks like Moderna might be the one that has the highest

00:40:24.220 success rate so far. But number one, I worry that it will, that just hearing that a vaccine

00:40:28.840 is coming will make people even more lax. They'll say, you know what, I'm gonna do what I want

00:40:32.680 because the vaccine is coming. That's one piece. And then the other piece is when it comes,

00:40:36.300 particularly in our community, Black people, they might be like, I don't trust science. I mean, 1.00

00:40:41.380 we've, you know, Tuskegee experiments, et cetera. There's just not a lot of trust. And it

00:40:44.720 was developed during the Trump era. I'm worried about both. Are you worried about those two things?

00:40:50.100 Yes, I'm very concerned about that. I've been talking about this in community,

00:40:54.100 and I've been very clear to say too often science has been a tool of white supremacy.

00:40:59.220 And what do I mean by that? Too often we can look at a sordid historical legacy of medical

00:41:05.060 experimentation, medical exploitation that Blacks and Browns have suffered, whether it's Tuskegee,

00:41:10.540 whether it's Henrietta Lacks, whether it's Mississippi appendectomies or enslaved Black women being 1.00

00:41:15.480 forced to undergo gynecological surgery.

00:41:17.640 I can't believe I'm saying this about a Joy Reid program on MSNBC. I think they're basically right.

00:41:28.940 They're not right in the specifics. I mean, they think that Trump is, I don't know,

00:41:33.240 going to give everyone a poison vaccine. That's crazy. They think that white supremacy is this

00:41:37.760 major, major problem in America. That's obviously crazy. But the point that they're making, 0.97

00:41:43.700 that we should be skeptical of the government and that science is often used as a tool for

00:41:52.480 nefarious political ends, that is completely right. And actually, when they're, they use the

00:41:58.680 phrase white supremacy, white supremacy on the left just means bad. You know, it's just a byword for

00:42:03.340 bad or evil. And that's true. That's true. Science is a quasi-religious term that is now invoked

00:42:12.380 by the left. Science, what it really means comes from the Latin verb shire, means knowledge,

00:42:17.060 to know. And then throughout most of the history of the West, it encompassed all of knowledge and how

00:42:23.120 we acquire knowledge. Then for the past, I don't know, 300 years or so, it's taken on this more

00:42:27.220 narrow sense of material inquiry. So I can't, I can't pursue the science of theology, for instance.

00:42:34.160 That's considered not a real science. But I can pursue the science of what this leftist

00:42:38.600 year's Tumblr is made of. Obviously, it's made of just the highest grade materials on the planet.

00:42:44.160 And now, in the last few decades, maybe the last century even, really since the left developed

00:42:52.100 their theories of the science of history and the science of politics, goes back to Marx,

00:42:56.980 goes back to Hegel, science has taken on this highly politicized definition, whereby if you know

00:43:04.540 the science of history, you know the right side of history, you know the arc of history bends toward

00:43:08.440 justice, you know where we're going, you know what progress means, you know that utopia we're

00:43:11.980 going to land at. And therefore, there should be no public debate. Therefore, we should just follow

00:43:16.940 science. And once we know that, you know, Andrew Cuomo in New York, the worst governor when it comes to

00:43:24.280 the coronavirus epidemic, his policies directly led to the deaths of thousands of New Yorkers,

00:43:30.040 violated his own policies. New York has been affected worse than just about any other state.

00:43:34.900 But he says, believe science. And the left, they agree with it. They say, yes,

00:43:39.280 believe science. They don't ever worry about the double standard. What's science? What does he

00:43:44.800 mean by science? When we say, believe Dr. Fauci, Dr. Fauci is a politician. He's a politician who's

00:43:50.420 also a social scientist of epidemiology, which is a social science, right? It's a science that is as

00:43:55.540 much about people and the way that people behave and interact as it is about viruses. His public health,

00:44:02.360 public health means political health. Public and political are synonymous.

00:44:07.120 And politics will use the facade, the guise of science to their nefarious ends. Joy Reid and her 1.00

00:44:14.760 guest, whoever that was, totally right about that. I just wish that conservatives were permitted to

00:44:20.840 make that point as well. Because no one's going to call Joy Reid a science denier. They are explicitly

00:44:26.240 saying science is a tool of politics and we shouldn't believe it. They are denying science,

00:44:31.340 right? And no one's going to call them that. I just wish we could all be held to the same standard

00:44:36.160 there. Before we go, I have to get to one very, very sad aspect of the collapse of our standards.

00:44:41.740 This is the saddest article I've read in many weeks, if not months. I believe it's from New York

00:44:48.720 Magazine. There's a letter to the advice columnist. Can I still charge my boyfriend rent once we're

00:44:57.040 married? Dear Charlotte, my fiance and I live together. I own the house. It's paid off and he

00:45:05.120 pays me $500 a month. Pretty good deal. Can I move in? The bills for the house are very low and

00:45:12.220 they come out to about $300 a month. So essentially he's paying $200 in rent. Oh, because I guess she's

00:45:17.020 paying the bills too. He thinks that once we get married, he shouldn't have to pay rent anymore and

00:45:22.920 that we should split the bills evenly. He's also stressed because he has accrued some debt, about

00:45:27.900 15 grand since we've been together. Wow, since we've been together, which is partly why he thinks he

00:45:32.520 should pay less. This frustrates me because I worked so hard to pay off my house early and I

00:45:36.540 feel like he's taking advantage of that. He has made less money than me the entire seven years we've

00:45:40.940 been together and it's been a constant issue in our relationship. I think that the man should

00:45:45.500 contribute a bit more than the woman. Yeah, you think? I'd love to split everything and own a house 1.00

00:45:51.440 together, but he's nowhere near being able to do that. What's the fair option once you're married?

00:45:57.320 Before we get to what happens once you're married, I don't know if she watches this show. I hope she does.

00:46:03.260 Before we get to your marriage, run. Run. I know that you own that house. There should be a U-shaped 0.98

00:46:09.480 hole in the wall because you're running so fast. You don't even go to the door. Run. This guy is a

00:46:15.000 loser. This guy is worse than a loser. He has no standards at all. He probably talks to women like 1.00

00:46:24.380 Steve Schmidt does. He's not a man. He's not behaving like a man. Should you, should you still

00:46:32.720 be able to charge your fiance rent? Should you charge your husband rent? No, because when you're

00:46:37.860 married, you're going to be one flesh. You are going to be one unit. There is no his money and 0.93

00:46:44.340 there is no your money. I know that some people keep finances separate. They sort of pretend that

00:46:49.060 that's not real. That's fake. That's imaginary. When you're married, it's all the same stuff.

00:46:55.360 And so you're taking on all of this guy's failures and all of this guy's vices

00:47:03.340 and all of this guy's childish behavior. You won't be marrying a husband. You're going to be

00:47:09.960 marrying a child who runs up all this debt while you're paying off your debt, who doesn't understand

00:47:16.220 that he's supposed to be the head of his household. He shouldn't be paying rent to you. He should be

00:47:22.120 paying the rent. He should be paying the mortgage. It should be his house. He should have a house.

00:47:26.860 He shouldn't not have a house and you should have a house. You shouldn't be working hard and he's not

00:47:31.040 working. You wouldn't be marrying a man. Now in the modern culture, look, people once understood

00:47:37.960 this, not that long ago. In the modern culture though, even many conservatives would say, oh,

00:47:42.820 well, you know, look, he'll just, let's throw up your hand. Look, you're all people. It's not that

00:47:46.920 he's a man, you're a woman, he's a husband, you're a wife. It's look, you're all people.

00:47:49.980 You should split everything evenly. You should all do the exact same amount of housework. You should

00:47:54.740 pay the bills in equal shares. You should both go to work in exactly the same way at exactly the

00:47:59.720 same type of company. No, no, that's not it. Men and women are different. I know that Ellen Page

00:48:08.220 would, or Elliot, Elliot Page now would dispute that, but they're different. Doesn't mean he's

00:48:14.580 got to like chain you to the kitchen and have you cooking all day. And it doesn't mean that he's got

00:48:18.620 to be working 16 hours, you know, at the office, you know, in the, in the kind of furthest caricatures

00:48:24.780 of what it is to be a husband and a wife. But husbands and wives are different. And if you're

00:48:30.880 going to, you're, you're not even going to be marrying a wife. At least wives provide quite a 0.99

00:48:36.500 lot. This guy's not doing that at all. You'd be marrying a child and someone who has no sense of

00:48:41.880 standards at all. When you're a child, sometimes you don't have standards if you're not raised right,

00:48:45.740 because you have to be educated into them. You have to learn how to behave. You have to learn what

00:48:49.320 those standards are. Now we've got a whole nation of these children. They don't know if they're men.

00:48:53.480 They don't know if they're women. They don't know what's up, what's down. That's no way to go on. 1.00

00:48:57.840 If we want to fix that, we can't just keep throwing our hands up in the air. We have to offer

00:49:02.120 a political vision. I'm Michael Knowles. This is the Michael Knowles Show. See you tomorrow.

00:50:00.560 You know, The Matt Walsh Show, it's not just another show about politics. I think there are

00:50:05.440 enough of those already out there. We talk about culture because culture drives politics and it 0.69

00:50:10.480 drives everything else. So my main focuses are life, family, faith. Those are fundamental.

00:50:17.620 And that's what this show is about. I hope you'll give it a listen.
