Nine months ago, a full month after the presidential election,
00:00:03.760
Joe Biden assured the American people that he did not support a federal vaccine mandate for COVID-19.
00:00:13.200
No, I don't think it should be mandatory. I wouldn't demand it to be mandatory,
00:00:16.880
but I would do everything in my power. Just like I don't think masks have to be made mandatory
00:00:21.480
nationwide. I'll do everything in my power as president of the United States to encourage
00:00:26.780
people to do the right thing. And when they do it, demonstrate that it matters.
00:00:31.400
Clear enough. But because his word is completely worthless, Joe Biden did a 180 and is demanding
00:00:37.620
now that 100 million Americans give up their freedom and take the Fauci ouchie. And he did so
00:00:44.540
in the most cartoonishly super villainy language possible. This is not about freedom or personal
00:00:52.480
choice. It's about protecting yourself and those around you. So tonight I'm announcing that the
00:00:59.700
Department of Labor is developing an emergency rule to require all employers with 100 or more employees
00:01:08.460
that together employ over 80 million workers to ensure their workforces are fully vaccinated
00:01:17.560
or show a negative test at least once a week. We've been patient, but our patience is wearing thin
00:01:24.940
and your refusal has cost all of us. This is not about freedom or personal choice. This is about
00:01:33.680
Joe Biden's patience wearing thin. Got it. Well, I've got two words for Joe Biden and they're not Mr.
00:01:41.980
President. I do not presume to speak for the American people, but speaking just for us here at
00:01:48.080
The Daily Wire, we will not comply. Joe Biden can go pound sand. We will pursue every legal option
00:01:54.160
available to us to ignore this incoherent and un-American edict from on high. I'm Michael Knowles.
00:02:00.840
Welcome back to the show. My favorite comment yesterday is from how dare you. Comment is the
00:02:13.600
only thing Biden has built back better is the Taliban. That's true. It's not totally fair,
00:02:20.060
though. He's also built back the Haqqani network. He's also built back ISIS. He's all these. So a few
00:02:25.700
more things, okay, just in the spirit of fairness. This growing tyranny has people wanting to reassert
00:02:35.000
their civil rights, very basic civil rights, such as our Second Amendment rights to keep and bear
00:02:40.360
arms, which is why I strongly suggest you check out Gun Owners of America. Have you noticed that the
00:02:46.480
federal government seems to be interested these days in taking away your rights? Well, Gun Owners of
00:02:51.380
America believes that the Second Amendment, your God-given right to defend yourself and your loved
00:02:55.800
ones, is under attack like never before. Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi, and Chuck Schumer want to ban guns and
00:03:01.980
register all gun owners with the government. We cannot let this happen. They'll do it. If you give
00:03:08.000
them the power, they will do it. It's up to all of us to protect our gun rights, and that is why I'm
00:03:12.460
asking you to visit Gun Owners of America today. GOA is the only no-compromise gun lobby in Washington.
00:03:18.260
Along with their grassroots army, they are taking the fight to the Congress, the White House,
00:03:23.020
and state legislatures from coast to coast. And GOA has a special message and a free gift for
00:03:27.400
listeners to this program. Head on over to gunowners.org slash Knowles now more than ever
00:03:32.560
to learn more. That is gunowners.org slash Knowles to learn more about how we can stop the left
00:03:38.560
from taking away our Second Amendment rights, our basic civil liberties, gunowners.org slash Knowles.
00:03:45.160
Joe Biden's speech yesterday was the most vicious, divisive speech I have ever heard
00:03:52.960
from an American president about his fellow Americans. It began, well, you heard a little
00:04:01.220
touch of it earlier. It began with this idea of Joe's patience wearing thin. Look, he's a crotchety
00:04:07.340
old man. His patience wears thin. He's not old slap happy Joe like he used to be. And so he opens up
00:04:14.220
the speech vilifying Americans who, for whatever reason, in their prudential judgment, decided that
00:04:21.340
they didn't want to get the experimental drug for the Wuhan cough.
00:04:26.540
Many of us are frustrated with the nearly 80 million Americans who are still not vaccinated,
00:04:32.500
even though the vaccine is safe, effective, and free. This is a pandemic of the unvaccinated.
00:04:40.140
And it's caused by the fact that despite America having unprecedented and successful vaccination
00:04:47.140
program, despite the fact that for almost five months, free vaccines have been available in 80,000
00:04:55.280
different locations, we still have nearly 80 million Americans who have failed to get the shot.
00:05:01.420
The unvaccinated overcrowd our hospitals or overrunning emergency rooms and intensive care units,
00:05:07.520
leaving no room for someone with a heart attack or pancreatitis or cancer. And a distinct minority
00:05:14.760
of Americans, supported by a distinct minority of elected officials, are keeping us from turning the
00:05:20.260
corner. We cannot allow these actions to stand in the way of protecting the large majority of Americans
00:05:26.420
who have done their part. I want to get back to life as normal.
00:05:30.600
So 80 million Americans who refuse to take the experimental jab for the virus that for most
00:05:37.560
people is just a mild cold, they are destroying the country. They are the reason people can't get
00:05:43.600
cancer treatments. Not the lockdown. You know, remember the lockdown, the various lockdowns that
00:05:48.740
we've been in that actually prevented people from getting cancer treatments? No, it's not that.
00:05:52.780
It's the unvaccinated because this is a pandemic of the unvaccinated. I don't think that Joe Biden
00:05:58.420
would have given this speech, this vicious speech, if the number had been 160 million.
00:06:04.700
He wouldn't have done that because then you would have had half of the country not having
00:06:09.860
been vaccinated. And he doesn't want to risk that kind of political capital castigating half of the
00:06:14.660
country. He only wants to wait until it's a distinct minority. Then he can go out and demagogue.
00:06:20.140
As he licks his finger, he puts it in the air, he figures out which way the wind is blowing. And his
00:06:23.400
word is worthless. So when he says there won't be a mandate, that's just a lie. So he comes out and he says,
00:06:28.320
okay, the unvaccinated, they're awful people. They're evil, awful, terrible people. They're
00:06:33.040
killing the good vaccinated Americans, but the vaccinated Americans are not at risk.
00:06:39.580
I know there's a lot of confusion and misinformation, but the world's leading scientists confirm
00:06:45.620
that if you are fully vaccinated, your risk of severe illness from COVID-19 is very low.
00:06:52.600
In fact, based on available data from the summer, only one out of every 160,000 fully vaccinated
00:07:01.460
Americans was hospitalized for COVID per day. For the vast majority of you who've gotten vaccinated,
00:07:08.580
I understand your anger at those who haven't gotten vaccinated. I understand the anxiety about getting
00:07:15.020
a breakthrough case. But as the science makes clear, if you're fully vaccinated, you're highly
00:07:23.220
protected from severe illness, even if you get COVID-19. In fact, recent data indicates there is
00:07:32.680
only one confirmed positive case per 5,000 fully vaccinated Americans per day. You're as safe as possible.
00:07:40.640
Help me out here. Maybe I'm a little bit slow. Maybe I just don't understand this.
00:07:45.640
Joe Biden is saying that there are a lot of Americans who are angry at the unvaccinated
00:07:52.040
because they have anxiety that they could get a breakthrough case and face the serious complications
00:07:57.340
of coronavirus. And he understands that anger. Frankly, he's stoking that anger in this speech.
00:08:05.240
But the vaccinated Americans are at statistically no risk of coronavirus from the unvaccinated
00:08:12.920
Americans. He's saying the science is clear. You're not at risk. You have an infinitesimally
00:08:19.980
small chance of getting a breakthrough case and certainly of suffering any serious consequences
00:08:25.140
from it. So then why do you understand the anger? Why do you understand the frustration?
00:08:28.960
They shouldn't be angry and they shouldn't be frustrated because they're not at risk. Because the
00:08:33.080
people who don't want to take the Fauci ouchie for whatever reason, maybe because you schmucks have
00:08:37.140
been lying to us for the past year and a half, maybe, maybe they have a justification for that.
00:08:45.660
Maybe they've got some prudential judgment. And as you admit, they don't pose any threat to the
00:08:53.760
vaccinated people. But he continues to demagogue anyway, because they, listen, they don't pose any
00:09:00.300
threat at all, but because of the massive threat they pose, we're going to make a hundred million
00:09:04.880
people take the shot. And I know this is crazy. Look, I'm not an epidemiologist,
00:09:12.040
but why is the focus entirely on a vaccine? When we're, when we're being told that the vaccines,
00:09:19.580
they do work, they're, they're so wonderful. They're the greatest vaccines ever, but also they
00:09:25.200
don't really work and they don't really stop the spread. And you, you need a booster two months
00:09:28.840
after you get your original series of vaccines, but they're really, really good, but they're also
00:09:32.920
not that effective. So if there are so many questions about the vaccines, why not focus on
00:09:37.840
treatments? We're increasing the availability of new medicines recommended by real doctors,
00:09:44.100
not conspiracy, conspiracy theorists. The monoclonal antibody treatments have been shown to reduce the
00:09:51.680
risk of hospitalization by up to 70% for unvaccinated people at risk of developing severe,
00:09:57.120
severe disease. We've already distributed 1.4 million courses of these treatments to save lives
00:10:04.960
and reduce the strain on hospitals. Hold on a second. So what you're telling me is that there
00:10:10.700
are all these questions about the vaccines and it took a long time to, to jump through all of the
00:10:15.960
various hoops and they're not quite as effective as everyone told us they are. And that's why you need
00:10:19.260
new booster shots. And there's still these breakthrough cases and they're still being transmitted.
00:10:22.620
And you've got a hundred and what, 170 to 200 million Americans who have taken that versus 1.7
00:10:32.120
million Americans who have received the, the treatment, the therapeutics that, that reduce the
00:10:39.100
risk by 70% that are very effective, that you're now calling, calling on them to be more widespread.
00:10:43.540
Why haven't you put any focus on the treatments before? Why are you focused only on this vaccine
00:10:49.500
that has a lot of questions about it when you could just focus on the therapeutics, which seems
00:10:54.580
much more reliable. And then instead of having to jab, shoot up every single American, shut down the
00:11:01.800
economy, you could just treat people who actually have symptoms who are actually at risk. Why not do
00:11:06.200
that? Fauci, Fauci has undertaken the strategy from the beginning of his career. This was a big
00:11:12.740
issue when he was dealing with AIDS back in the 1980s. Everybody said, Hey, just develop some
00:11:18.880
treatments. He said, no, we've got to focus on the vaccine. He put most of the resources behind the
00:11:22.340
vaccine. We still don't have an AIDS vaccine. And the only way people with AIDS survive is because
00:11:26.020
they take cocktails of therapeutics. Decade and decade and decade of failure. And now this guy,
00:11:31.840
these people are going to lie to us. They're going to vilify all of these Americans and they're going
00:11:38.340
to upend our constitutional order. Disgusting. One of the most disgusting speeches I've ever seen
00:11:45.320
from a president really makes you want to protect yourself and your family. And when you want to do
00:11:49.600

00:12:42.880
of mine. Ring.com slash Knowles. Mark my words. Right now in a sterile apartment somewhere off of
00:12:53.080
DuPont Circle in Washington, D.C., there is a bulwark staff writer who is furiously penning the
00:13:00.080
conservative case for federal vaccine mandates for virtually every American through various
00:13:08.220
administrative agencies. I, I'm telling you right now there for, I think of the bulwark or some of
00:13:13.120
these other fake right-wing outlets. They're, they're court jester conservative outlets. They're
00:13:18.720
outlets where they say, I'm a conservative, but I only vote for Democrats and I support the liberal
00:13:22.420
order, right? Their, their whole purpose is to feign opposition and in so doing legitimize the dominant
00:13:29.120
liberal ruling class. You're going to hear it. Here's the, actually, actually, here's why Joe Biden's
00:13:35.800
speech vilifying a hundred, a hundred million Americans and, uh, forcing these new penalties
00:13:42.760
from the federal government on all of these businesses through the various, this is why it's
00:13:45.720
really conservative, really, really conservative. Now, because you're going to hear this nonsense and
00:13:53.280
because Biden is going to push for this, I think it's very important that we be specific on what our
00:13:58.800
problem is here. Okay. Most conservatives that I see right now are saying, I'm not against vaccines.
00:14:07.140
I'm just against vaccine mandates. And I understand why people are saying that. My view is sort of the
00:14:14.360
opposite though. I'm not against vaccine mandates in principle. I am against this vaccine or specifically
00:14:21.520
mandating this vaccine. I am against, it's kind of the opposite of what the conservatives are saying,
00:14:26.400
but, but my view is right. So the reason for this is if you make the argument that we, we have total
00:14:37.560
bodily autonomy and you have no right to shoot me up with any sort of inoculation and that's deeply
00:14:43.420
unconstitutional and it violates all, all of the American tradition of my God given rights, you're not
00:14:48.520
going to be able to make that case very well because for 116 years now, the Supreme court has held
00:14:55.900
that actually in some cases, the government can mandate vaccines. There's a case from Jacobson
00:15:03.380
versus Massachusetts, 1905 held that not the federal government, not OSHA, not these bureaucratic
00:15:09.980
agencies, but the states do have the authority to mandate vaccines in certain cases. In that case in
00:15:17.920
particular, they were talking about smallpox. George Washington actually goes back further than 1905.
00:15:23.220
George Washington in 1777 mandated inoculations for his troops and they were much more dangerous back
00:15:31.800
then, by the way, than they are today, but he did it to keep them in fighting form. That also was
00:15:37.560
against smallpox. If we try to make the argument that it's deeply un-American to mandate vaccines,
00:15:45.100
we're going to fail because we've had vaccine mandates going back to George Washington.
00:15:48.980
Just at some level, whether it's just to the army, whether it is at the state level.
00:15:55.860
I think where we will be successful is if we make the particular argument. The particular argument is
00:16:01.480
we've never had a federal vaccine mandate for a hundred million plus Americans. We've never had it.
00:16:09.620
We've never had it imposed through the proxy arm of businesses being enforced by OSHA and various
00:16:16.400
federal administrative agencies. We never had that. And I know, I know you're not allowed to say this,
00:16:23.740
but the coronavirus ain't smallpox. Okay. It's much, much, much less deadly. It's much, much, much less
00:16:30.400
serious. And it affects many fewer people. Even if you're just looking at various demographics, smallpox is
00:16:36.480
one of the deadliest epidemics that has ever existed. So when there's a smallpox outbreak, people have to
00:16:43.600
take that a little bit more seriously. And it affects everybody. Whereas coronavirus is very
00:16:50.120
unlikely to, to result in grave injury or death to young people, to healthy people. For older people
00:16:57.480
and for, for unhealthy people, it can be more dangerous. Okay. I think that what the median or
00:17:02.140
the average age of a, of a COVID death is over 82. Okay. This is not the case with people who face
00:17:09.040
serious complications from smallpox where what something like 30% of them are blind, 30% of
00:17:13.560
blindness cases came from smallpox back when smallpox still, still existed. It would horribly
00:17:18.860
disfigure people and would kill people too. I think we need to make them, I've been saying this actually
00:17:24.980
for a while now, as I made the case in Speechless. I think that conservatives get tripped up when we
00:17:32.440
start making these really generalized abstract arguments that don't refer to anything in reality,
00:17:37.720
in practice. So you're going to hear people say, you have no right to stop me from engaging in some
00:17:43.380
behavior that might harm me. Yes, we do. Yes, we do. The United States has always claimed that right.
00:17:48.320
We have laws against drugs. We have laws for seatbelts. We have laws for, against pornography,
00:17:52.760
or we did at least. They're still in the books. They're just not enforced. We do have laws against
00:17:56.960
that. If you make this extreme libertarian case, you're going to fail because it's completely
00:18:01.860
ahistorical. But there's a really strong case to be made that this virus is just not that big a
00:18:07.760
threat compared to other epidemics. This drug is just not that much to be trusted given how hastily
00:18:13.580
it was developed. These people, this public health agency and administration are not to be trusted
00:18:19.040
because they've lied to us on occasion and have gotten things wrong generally. And this federal
00:18:24.780
government is overreaching here if they want to impose a mandate. Maybe for a local or state government,
00:18:29.940
that's one thing. But the federal government through the bureaucracy, that's another thing
00:18:33.220
entirely. What we're looking at here is not so simple as a matter of freedom versus tyranny.
00:18:41.120
Freedom and tyranny play into this question, but it's not so simple as all that.
00:18:44.980
What this is about is, pardon the expression, a whole new world order. Okay, that's an expression
00:18:52.440
that was trending yesterday on Twitter. And it was trending because an Australian politician
00:18:56.820
accidentally let the phrase slip. Will exposure sites be put back in place,
00:19:01.200
especially with reopening and people going back to pubs and stuff? Because our exposure sites still,
00:19:06.460
will they be put back in place to be listed once we are reopening? Because they're not at the moment.
00:19:11.280
We will be looking at what contact tracing looks like in the new world order. Yes,
00:19:17.360
it will be pubs and clubs and other things if we have a positive case there.
00:19:20.560
Our response may be different if we know that people are fully vaccinated. So we're working
00:19:25.780
through a number of those issues, but we will have to reflect and learn.
00:19:30.940
The new world order? I thought this was 15 days to slow the spread. New world order
00:19:35.040
because of the Wu flu? New world order is a phrase you may have heard before.
00:19:39.880
The new world order was a term popularized by George H.W. Bush in a couple of speeches that are
00:19:45.420
now being suppressed. This was back at the start of the first Iraq war, the Gulf War.
00:19:50.120
What is at stake is more than one small country. It is a big idea, a new world order where diverse
00:20:02.160
nations are drawn together in common cause to achieve the universal aspirations of mankind.
00:20:09.720
peace and security, freedom, and the rule of law. Such is a world worthy of our struggle
00:20:20.260
and worthy of our children's future. We have before us the opportunity to forge
00:20:26.140
for ourselves and for future generations, a new world order, a world where the rule of law,
00:20:33.780
not the law of the jungle, governs the conduct of nations.
00:20:37.400
When we are successful, and we will be, we have a real chance at this new world order,
00:20:45.080
an order in which a credible United Nations can use its peacekeeping role to fulfill the promise
00:20:54.600
Ah, I don't know about that. Wait, the UN is now going to just go in and kind of run all these
00:20:59.140
different countries? I don't know about that. So when I heard this Australian politician use the
00:21:02.320
phrase new world order, I said, oh, where have I heard that? Oh, I heard that from George Bush.
00:21:05.580
Let me look up that speech. So I look it up on YouTube and the speech won't come up.
00:21:10.420
The clip won't come up. Actually, what comes up is some other speeches of George Bush. And then
00:21:14.860
a, a header, like a little disclaimer that says the new world order is a conspiracy theory and it's
00:21:20.740
not real and it's to totally ignore this. There's nothing to see here. Pay no attention to the man
00:21:23.800
behind the curtain. You say, wait, what? Nothing says the new world order is a conspiracy
00:21:30.200
quite like burying the clips of the speech of the new world order and telling you it doesn't
00:21:34.900
exist, right? That's yeah. Okay. Uh, and having the largest corporation on earth do that. Yeah,
00:21:39.540
that, that assuages my fears. Okay. Now I'm, but of course that's what this is. I mean, that clip
00:21:44.620
was from September 11th, 1990 and January 16th, 1991. And Bush was talking about the Gulf war and he's
00:21:52.060
saying, look, what we're going to do now, the cold war is over. We're going to remake the entire
00:21:55.200
world in America's image. And his son would, would pursue this path in the second Iraq war
00:21:59.900
and the war on terror and, and abolishing tyranny in the world, as he said in the second inaugural.
00:22:04.800
And it was a bit utopian and a bit progressive and quite liberal. And, but they really meant it.
00:22:11.740
They really said we are, there is going to be a world order and we want to change the world order.
00:22:15.620
And the effect of the coronavirus lockdowns without question is that without quite, I'm not saying
00:22:22.560
it's some sneaky cabal, you know, in the shadows somewhere with space lasers or anything. I'm just
00:22:26.540
saying the effect of these lockdowns is to reorder the way that citizens relate to their nations and
00:22:33.860
the way that nations relate to the rest of the world. That's just without question. I mean,
00:22:36.960
Joe Biden proved it last night by upending the constitutional order and imposing this mandate
00:22:42.940
that one hopes many American businesses will refuse to go along with. You know,
00:22:50.060
we need to protect our most basic rights here. The most basic right is the right to life,
00:22:56.740
which is why I would strongly recommend you go check out 40 days for life. Abortion is in the
00:23:00.840
news a lot these days because of this wonderful Texas pro-life law and potentially similar laws
00:23:05.720
around the country. When the topic comes up, as it happens a lot on social media now and in normal
00:23:11.460
interactions, it helps to have good, solid arguments to refute the lies of the abortion industry.
00:23:17.160
Well, there's a new easy book for this. It's called What to Say When? The Complete New Guide
00:23:21.540
to Discussing Abortion. It covers traditional arguments, but also my body, my choice, when and
00:23:27.240
how to discuss politics and abortion, forced birth. That's the new thing they're calling it.
00:23:32.340
Transgenderism and abortion. Shout your abortion. A whole lot has changed since abortion was legalized
00:23:36.980
in 1973. What to Say When? Equips you with proven approaches from the front lines of 40 days for life,
00:23:42.460
which has helped to convert 221 abortion workers. Pretty amazing stuff. Know exactly what to say when
00:23:49.940
and not to say. When abortion comes up, balance converting hearts with winning arguments. Go on
00:23:54.340
the offense. Stay on topic. Go check it out right now. It's a wonderful, invaluable tool. What to Say

00:24:12.720
what to say when. There is a campaign right now for radical liberation. Now, I know this is weird.
00:24:20.580
This is why I'm telling you when you hear something about the vaccine mandate or any other big public
00:24:25.520
policy, political correctness is like this, wokeness is like this. It's not so simple as saying
00:24:31.880
freedom versus tyranny. Okay. Freedom versus censorship or something. Because in many ways,
00:24:41.020
the country is freer, quote unquote, now than it was 50 years ago. We're freer to say naughty words.
00:24:47.680
We're freer to sleep with whomever we want. We're less free to have political speech. We're less free
00:24:53.820
to state basic truths. We're less free to control our own passions and run our own government. But we are
00:25:00.240
more free in some other, in some very base licentious ways. AOC just showed this. She just
00:25:07.060
proved this campaign of radical liberation. She tweeted out in response to a headline that says
00:25:11.180
AOC calls women menstruating people while explaining the female body. She said, not just women. Trans men
00:25:17.580
and non-binary people can also menstruate. Some women also don't menstruate for many reasons,
00:25:22.380
including surviving cancer that required a hysterectomy. GOP mad at this are protecting the
00:25:27.180
patriarchal idea that women are most valuable as uterus holders. Strange phrasing. But she's almost
00:25:37.300
right here in that last part. She's almost right. You're not a uterus holder. I'm not like a shoulder
00:25:43.900
holder, right? My body parts are not my possessions. They're part of me, but I'm splitting hairs, I
00:25:50.980
suppose. What AOC is saying, if she could speak English properly, is that there's a patriarchal idea
00:25:58.960
that women's greatest asset is their ability to conceive and bear children. That's obviously true.
00:26:05.860
It's not just true for women. It's true of all people. The most incredible faculty, the most valuable
00:26:12.600
faculty possessed by human beings, period, is the ability to conceive and produce children. And
00:26:20.080
only women can do that. Contrary to popular belief. Not everyone gets to have children. Not every woman
00:26:26.640
gets to have children. Okay? We dealt with this a little bit ourselves. I've mentioned this on the
00:26:31.160
show before. Sweet little Elisa and I were Catholic. We started right away after we got married and it
00:26:36.280
just didn't happen right away. A lot of people struggle with infertility. It's very painful for a
00:26:40.240
lot of people. Okay? Of course, there are other ways to contribute. There are other ways to flourish and
00:26:43.780
have a good life. But it is simply the case that the center of human life is the conception and
00:26:54.520
creation of children. And AOC is devaluing that. She's saying, oh, who cares? Who cares about that?
00:27:02.840
The feminists generally have devalued this. Said, oh, who cares about this miracle that you can create
00:27:07.180
another freaking human being and then raise that person and propagate our species and be fruitful
00:27:13.700
and multiply. Who cares about that? When you can go work in the widget factory. Huh. Why would you
00:27:18.200
want to rock the cradle and have the hand that rocks the cradle rule the world when you can go do
00:27:22.340
spreadsheets for some guy in a city or something? Why would you, oh my gosh, what a horrible life that
00:27:27.820
would be to have a good family. Oh gosh, that'd be, then you couldn't be single and drunk all the
00:27:32.100
time living in a city doing spreadsheets. It's insane. It's an insane view of society, but it's the
00:27:40.940
consequence of a radical liberation that, that liberates us not just from certain social mores, but
00:27:49.260
from the bonds of nature itself, such that women are no longer women. Not, not all women are uterus
00:27:55.480
holders, as she says. Even the moderates are radical on this stuff. Merrick Garland, who is supposed to be
00:27:59.940
the moderate attorney general. He's the one that Mitch McConnell just smacked down when he was up
00:28:04.040
for the Supreme Court and held open Scalia's seat. Garland is now the attorney general. He says that
00:28:09.020
this pro-life law in Texas is clearly unconstitutional. SB 8 bans nearly all abortions in the state after
00:28:16.480
six weeks of pregnancy, before many women even know they are pregnant and months before a pregnancy is
00:28:23.740
viable. It does so even in cases of rape, sexual abuse, or incest. And it further prohibits any effort
00:28:33.940
to aid the doctors who provide pre-viability abortions or the women who seek them. The act is clearly
00:28:42.420
unconstitutional under long-standing Supreme Court precedent. Those precedents hold, in the words of
00:28:51.060
Planned Parenthood v. Casey, that, quote, regardless of whether exceptions are made for particular
00:28:57.300
circumstances, a state may not prohibit any woman from making the ultimate decision to terminate her
00:29:05.260
pregnancy before viability. So he's quoting Planned Parenthood v. Casey, which is not only one of the worst
00:29:12.160
decisions in the history of the United States, but also one of the stupidest. It was written by one of the
00:29:16.080
stupidest justices, Justice Anthony Kennedy, who fancied himself a romantic poet. And in his, in his
00:29:21.640
opinion there, he, he said that people have a constitutional right to define their own concept of
00:29:27.940
existence. AOC, basically, is what he's saying. He's saying, yes, you, if you're a man, you can imagine
00:29:33.080
that you're a woman or a unicorn or whatever, because we define our own concept of existence.
00:29:36.820
That's our right. Of course, you don't have that right. I don't, I can, I can define my own concept of
00:29:43.900
existence as being a, a six foot four, 300 pound linebacker. But if I step onto the football field, things are
00:29:53.120
not going to go very well, if, if that is the view that I'm laboring under, okay? You don't have the right to do
00:29:59.500
that. You actually have the obligation to acknowledge reality. We all have that obligation to. Garland is a
00:30:05.520
moderate. Shows you just how far left, not, not just the radicals have gone, but the whole liberal
00:30:11.940
ruling class. Think about this, uh, Northam, a governor blackface. He, hey, he might not be
00:30:17.480
governor blackface. He might've been governor Ku Klux Klan hood. We're not sure which, which one he was
00:30:21.840
wearing. Governor Northam in Virginia just tore down the statue of Robert E. Lee. It had stood for 130
00:30:29.140
years and he tore it down. There was also a time capsule in there. They're getting rid of the time
00:30:35.220
capsule. They don't know what's in it yet. They're going to open that up later, but now there's going
00:30:40.580
to be a new time capsule. Northam says, this monument and its time capsule reflected Virginia
00:30:46.280
in 1890. It's time to remove both so that our public spaces better reflect who we are
00:30:49.740
as a people in 2021. The past 18 months have seen historic change from the pandemic to protests for
00:30:55.960
racial justice that led to the removal of these monuments to a lost cause. It is fitting that we
00:31:00.900
replace the old capsule with the new one that tells that story. So right now, everything's got to
00:31:05.140
change. It's not just that we create new time capsules of where we are now. We've got to get
00:31:09.640
rid of all the old ones. We've got to knock everything down. We've got to just be exactly
00:31:13.720
who we are right now. We don't have any connection to tradition. The new time capsule will be filled
00:31:18.700
with dozens of new items. Black Lives Matter sticker, CDC vax card, a photo of the Virginia
00:31:24.620
State Police at the January 6th insurrection, the January 6th, an expired COVID-19 vaccine
00:31:31.200
vial, an LGBT pride pin, prayer beads from a woman who died of COVID. I don't know what they mean by
00:31:37.760
prayer beads. They mean a rosary? It doesn't sound like it. Who knows? A collection of poems from middle
00:31:43.040
school students about COVID, an election officer's badge from 2020, yikes, and a video from an interfaith
00:31:50.400
healing and unity event. Does any of that represent you? Does any of that represent you?
00:31:59.820
No, it doesn't represent me. The generic, the closest would be the prayer beads, I guess,
00:32:05.640
the generic prayer beads to the interfaith healing. No, that is a radical, radical shift. And it's all
00:32:11.080
focused in this very vindictive way on how awful the conservatives are. They storm the Capitol,
00:32:16.820
the COVID, the greatest threat, got to change our constitution, or LGBT, pride, BLM, this, that,
00:32:23.080
and the other thing. It's funny. They have two different items to commemorate alleged insurrectionists,
00:32:30.660
right? One is BLM. They're saying, we support these insurrectionists. And one is that picture
00:32:34.560
of the cops. And they're saying, we oppose those awful insurrectionists that stole Pelosi's lectern or
00:32:39.200
whatever. Does that represent you? It doesn't represent me. It's an unrecognizable country,
00:32:44.840
which we don't need to look in a cap for that. We can see that in the speech yesterday from Joe
00:32:52.500
Biden. Unrecognizable stuff. Did you know that over 85% of grass-fed beef sold in U.S. grocery

As I'm sure you're well aware, just want to put not too fine a point on it.
00:33:37.960
Joe Biden is using the federal agency OSHA to force all companies with over 100 employees to
00:33:43.020
either mandate vaccines or test their employees for COVID at least once a week. This is an insane
00:33:48.080
overreach. So in case you weren't listening at the top of the show, we are going to fight that with

00:34:29.140
most brutal terror attack America's ever seen. In an extremely important episode of Ben Shapiro's
00:34:33.400
Sunday special, he sits down with one of the politicians that shouldered much of the burden
00:34:37.260
that was placed on the Bush administration in the aftermath. That would be Secretary of State

Welcome back to the show. My favorite time of the week right now is the mailbag. You know,
00:35:18.340
before we get to the mailbag though, I do have to thank everybody because I'd mentioned this on the
00:35:22.160
show that I was very honored to write the introduction to the new 70th anniversary edition
00:35:27.520
of God and Man at Yale by William F. Buckley Jr. This is the book that is widely credited with starting
00:35:32.880
the conservative movement and it's available now. It's shipping. So I really appreciate everyone who's
00:35:36.460
bought it. I know a lot of you have written in and if you want to get it, you can get it wherever
00:35:39.280
books are sold. It's God and Man at Yale by William F. Buckley Jr. And you can read a few pages of my
00:35:44.580
writing. See, I did a book with no words, then I did a book with a lot of words. Now I'm doing a book
00:35:48.540
with still not that many words, but Bill Buckley wrote the rest of the words. So that's very good.
00:35:53.040
First question up from Kirsten. Michael, I had a couple of questions for you. You've talked about
00:35:57.680
learning about other religions. So I wondered if you'd ever considered or would consider reading
00:36:02.060
or studying the Book of Mormon. My second question, you often quote Chesterton, but which Chesterton do
00:36:06.760
you quote, GK or AK? I don't know much about either of them, but you seem to speak highly of whichever it
00:36:11.820
is you quote. So it got me wondering. Thank you for all that you do. Oh, thank you very much.
00:36:14.920
You know, I haven't delved deeply into Mormonism. I'm friends with Mormons and I have read some of
00:36:22.720
the Book of Mormon, especially when I was reverting to the church and considering all these things.
00:36:31.540
I did read a lot of Protestants. I read some Mormonism. Actually, when I was a kid, I had read
00:36:35.540
a good bit of Islam. I'd read the Quran when I think I was 14, mostly because the libs kept telling me that
00:36:43.240
this was the religion of peace, you know, and I just didn't, I wanted to read it for myself. I just
00:36:47.140
didn't believe them. Healthy skepticism is always good. So yeah, so obviously, you know, I was not
00:36:52.540
persuaded by the Book of Mormon and I ended up, you know, becoming a, returning to be a mackerel
00:36:59.880
snapping papist. But you know, it's always good to investigate these things for oneself and to figure
00:37:07.260
out what you find to be most, most persuasive. As for the Chestertons, I'm referring to GK Chesterton.
00:37:14.280
I actually didn't know anything about the other Chesterton until yesterday. AK Chesterton, who was
00:37:18.880
a cousin of his or something, was a British fascist politician. And so I'm not, not referring to him,
00:37:25.320
referring to GK, who is just a magnificent writer of the 20th century. When was he born? He was born in
00:37:32.460
the 19th century. Anyway, he's just a wonderful, wonderful writer. From Aubrey. Hello, my swarthy
00:37:39.000
host. Hello, Aubrey. How are you? I was out on the town recently and met some new people who were
00:37:45.620
really fun. And yes, some were men. I wasn't out on the prowl, but it's always an option when you're
00:37:51.900
young and single. However, I tend to dress slightly more conservative than other girls and they tend to
00:37:56.340
get more immediate attention from guys because let's face it, men are easily distracted. Now, I'm not
00:38:02.060
dressing like a nun, but sometimes I'm a little more subtle about accentuating my assets. You feel?
00:38:07.880
I feel, I feel. But I think that immediate attention can lead to conversations and sometimes
00:38:12.920
turn into a more long-term interest. As a man of decent values who isn't blind, should I dress a
00:38:17.620
little more provocative to get more initial attention and then show them my dazzling personality?
00:38:22.160
Sincerely, a lady in the streets. You should dress to look beautiful. Okay. And so I'm not saying you
00:38:33.180
should put a, you know, a burka on. Okay. I'm not saying you should throw a potato sack over yourself.
00:38:38.860
No, you should certainly show off your beautiful qualities, not just emotional, but also physical.
00:38:46.880
Uh, but that doesn't mean that you should dress like a trollop, my dear. You, you know, I'm, I'm
00:38:53.700
hearkening back to my single days when I'd go, go meet the ladies around town. And yes, it's true.
00:38:59.200
If a, if a gal is wearing, you know, dental floss, it will catch your attention, but you will form an
00:39:04.560
opinion about that. And very likely you're, you will not look at that woman as though this is going to
00:39:09.520
be the mother of my children. It can happen, but it's not usual. Whereas if you see a gal who is wearing a
00:39:16.300
potato sack, yes, you, you might not pay attention to her, but, but if you see a woman who is not dressed
00:39:22.620
like a gal of ill repute, but who is still beautiful, is showing off her beauty in a way that is
00:39:30.400
reasonable. I think that's the course you want to go on. Our, our society sets up a ton of false
00:39:36.680
dichotomies. We were talking about the false dichotomy earlier between freedom and tyranny or
00:39:40.340
whatever. Liberty and censorship. We also have this false dichotomy of, you know, you've either
00:39:48.260
got to dress like a street walker or you've got to, you know, hide yourself in a burka, but there,
00:39:54.060
there's a middle ground. You can, you can acknowledge beauty and even accentuate beauty
00:39:58.240
without having it be tawdry. Hope that helps. Ashton. Hello, Michael. Following the Texas abortion law,
00:40:04.620
my social media feed has been full of despair and disgust. For example, I read a post comparing a
00:40:09.980
fetus to a tapeworm. What shocks me are these pro-choice individuals or parents themselves.
00:40:16.420
Why do you think there are so many parents out there who are pro-choice? I would think most of
00:40:21.180
them would be pro-life and this saddens me. I'm married, but no children yet. But these crazy,
00:40:25.860
nutty lefties have changed my mind to be more pro-life than pro-choice. I think a lot of what it
00:40:31.280
comes from is, is arrogance and bigotry. Basically what a lot of these women are saying is, and it's,
00:40:42.360
you know, often I've heard this a lot from liberal white women is they'll say, look, I would never
00:40:46.140
get an abortion. I would never kill my precious babies, but poor black women. Yeah, they should do
00:40:52.140
it. Yeah. Yeah. That's fine. If poor black women in like bad cities who don't make a lot of money.
00:40:57.160
Oh yeah. They should kill all those, but who wants those babies? But I'm just saying for me,
00:41:01.440
I would never kill my baby. Right. That's, that's one line I've heard. And then the other line,
00:41:08.900
which, and I think it's important to mention, I haven't mentioned this yet in this iteration of
00:41:13.200
the abortion debate, but an important aspect here too is sometimes they know not what they do.
00:41:20.480
Okay. There are, I know, I know multiple women who have had abortions. I know some women who have
00:41:26.600
had multiple abortions and some of them came to regret it deeply. And some of them are not even
00:41:34.260
really aware of it. And they don't, they can't put two and two together. That's the way this fallen
00:41:39.080
world works. You know, for a long time, when I was a teenager, I, I argued in favor of abortion. I mean,
00:41:44.080
everyone, I don't think I knew a pro-life person. It was just, it was so obvious. Oh, these pro-lifers
00:41:49.060
are trying to control women's bodies. And it's not a big deal. It's not really a baby. It's like,
00:41:52.780
it's just a blob of whatever. And you know, whatever. And if you don't look into it more
00:41:57.380
deeply, you might just stay there. I mean, the whole culture is telling you that. So I do think
00:42:01.840
there is some degree of just honest ignorance or, or an attempt to evade learning more because
00:42:12.360
it will show you a ghastly reality. But that's true. And so if, you know, for a woman who has
00:42:19.440
had an abortion, it can be a very traumatic experience to realize later on what that means,
00:42:24.600
what it, what it was like. And, and so I think it's, one has to have compassion for these people
00:42:30.200
too. You know, I mean, you can go and have your sins forgiven, but, but you do have to recognize
00:42:35.380
that it was wrong. You do have to, and that's a very hard, repentance is a very hard thing because
00:42:39.620
it means, repentance literally means changing your mind, right? It means actually
00:42:42.740
turning around, changing the way that you're, you're seeing things. And that can be very,
00:42:47.020
very disorienting to people. From Emma. Hi, Michael. I'm a college student at Appalachian
00:42:51.160
State University. The school administration is pursuing for the student body to get vaccinated.
00:42:56.460
As you could probably guess, I do not believe in being forced to receive the vaccine.
00:42:59.840
Being 25 years old, COVID doesn't pose much of a threat to me. All the elderly people are able to
00:43:03.660
receive it. Exactly. The vaccination rate here is more than 50% for students and over 80% for faculty
00:43:08.740
and staff, but I know that they're going to make my life more difficult. It's already difficult for
00:43:13.360
me to wear a mask with my autism. Good point. I don't want to roll, give in, and violate my principles.
00:43:20.500
My mom said I wouldn't be rolling over and giving up what I believe in. It would be me being forced
00:43:25.860
into doing it. What do you think? Sincerely, my body, not quite my choice. I'm really glad you brought up
00:43:30.080
the autism aspect here because people refuse to acknowledge that the masks create problems for some people.
00:43:38.740
The masks create problems for some people with breathing problems, for instance. The masks can
00:43:42.980
create problems for people with autism because it's much, much harder to read facial cues. I mean,
00:43:48.760
you can't just tell the entire population, hey, totally upend your way of life, muzzle yourself,
00:43:56.180
put this filthy cloth over your face all the time, and it'll be totally normal and fine,
00:43:59.680
and there's no big deal, and there's no problem with that. Of course there will be. And then you add
00:44:02.660
on top of this, the vaccine mandates. What I would do if I were you, and I've said this before,
00:44:08.560
I don't think that taking this vaccine or not taking this vaccine is necessarily, you know,
00:44:15.480
the arbiter of one's most deeply held beliefs. It might be an expression of deeply held beliefs.
00:44:21.580
And I think the fact that the public health bureaucracy is so callous and so vindictive and so
00:44:26.980
stupid and so dishonest is very good reason to not trust them on the vaccine. And I don't think that
00:44:34.960
the Biden vaccine mandate is legit, even though I'm not opposed to it in principle. So what I would do
00:44:41.080
is what we're doing here at The Daily Wire. I would do everything you can to avoid it.
00:44:47.020
I'm sure there are ways to avoid it, okay? If they do, you know, hold you down and tie you down
00:44:57.220
and jab the thing, I don't think it's, you know, the end of your life. I think, you know, life will
00:45:01.520
go on. It'll be a horrible infringement, but life will go on. But I would not be willing to give up
00:45:09.640
just yet on this sort of thing. Write into me again if they tell me, you know, you're either
00:45:15.480
taking the shot or you're out of our school. You know, write into me again. We'll talk then. But
00:45:20.980
I think they're bluffing in many ways. I think Joe Biden is bluffing in many ways. I don't think
00:45:26.540
they're really going to be able to enforce this. I think he's trying to distract from his failures
00:45:30.700
on Afghanistan. I think he's trying to distract from his failures on the economy, on immigration,
00:45:35.480
frankly, even on coronavirus. So he's trying to have a shiny object over here rile up the
00:45:41.620
Provax people to rile up his base. But I wouldn't fold yet. I wouldn't fold yet. I think they're
00:45:48.880
bluffing. From Ben. Hello, Michael. My home state of Virginia took down the giant statue of Robert
00:45:53.400
E. Lee. Yes, that's true. I saw that. I have mixed feelings. On one hand, the precedent scares me whose
00:45:58.420
statue is next, and a lot of people consider it erasing history. On the other hand, Lee did wage a war
00:46:02.480
against the United States and committed treason. So shouldn't I celebrate the statue of a traitor
00:46:07.800
coming down? What are your thoughts on the situation? Thanks. Love the show. Oh, would
00:46:12.220
that it were so simple. I wish that it were so simple to say, he's a traitor. He's bad. Get
00:46:16.280
rid of him. The American Civil War was a very complex engagement that had been boiling up from the very
00:46:26.860
founding of the country, since before the founding of the country. And politicians tried for decades to
00:46:32.680
stave it off. There were many complex factors that went into it. And then the union won. And
00:46:38.680
Lincoln declared, with malice toward none, with charity for all, we are going to come back. We're
00:46:43.100
not just going to invade and conquer you and slay all the men and rape all the women and raise all your
00:46:50.940
crops and burn your fields. They said, we're going to come back together and actually live together all
00:46:56.880
as Americans. Confederate soldiers are treated as American veterans. Okay. For this reason,
00:47:03.480
because we need to come back because we're going to have a country. Are we going to have a country
00:47:05.840
or not? Is the country going to be the whole country or is it, are we going to excise half of
00:47:10.220
the country? So I think it's, and by the way, Robert E. Lee was one of the most important figures in
00:47:15.840
bringing the country back together. It's not like he waged a guerrilla. It's not the Taliban. He didn't go
00:47:20.080
wage a guerrilla campaign then for years and years after the war was over. He surrendered and helped
00:47:26.080
to unify the country. So I think the disrespect at him, well, one, it won't just stop at him. It's
00:47:31.540
already not. They're tearing down Washington and Jefferson and Lincoln for that matter.
00:47:35.580
But I think it's wrong even in the particular. I do not think Robert E. Lee deserves to be taken
00:47:40.140
down. I think he's actually one of the more important figures in helping the country to recover.
00:47:44.560
From Colby, dear Mr. Knowles, I'm getting married this month. We're going on our honeymoon to
00:47:48.640
Nashville, Tennessee. Nice. But we're having a hard time nailing down some things to do besides
00:47:52.880
going to Candace's show and visiting a couple of historical museums. What do you recommend?
00:47:57.720
P.S. What medium strength cigar do you recommend? Love the show. And as always, your thoughts and
00:48:01.420
insight. Keep me speechless. Thanks. What do I recommend? Well, you know, there's a full scale
00:48:06.520
replica of the Parthenon here with a full statue of Athena. It's like very weird. It's very weird,
00:48:11.620
but you know, you could go check that out. I would go check out some of the plantations. Actually,
00:48:15.700
speaking of the Civil War, some of those are pretty cool. Great Civil War battle sites down
00:48:19.100
in Franklin. Not sure if your wife is totally into that. Franklin itself is this gorgeous little
00:48:22.800
town. It could be very romantic. I'll have a glass of wine on a porch somewhere. You can go check out,
00:48:28.300
gosh, go hit up a cigar bar. There's actually a lot of cigar bars here. And a good medium body cigar.
00:48:34.140
I would recommend, especially for the price point, I'd recommend My Father. Stuff My Father
00:48:38.760
Makes is really good. And since you're married now, you potentially will become a father very soon.
00:48:44.400
All right. Appreciate everybody. It's been a very trying week, I know, for everybody around here.
00:48:50.000
We appreciate your support. We will keep you posted on our refusal to go along with Joe Biden's
00:48:54.320
stupid plan. If you want to join up right now, help us out. You can do that. Head on over to
00:48:59.020
dailywire.com. Appreciate everyone who's gotten the new edition of God and Man at Yale.
00:49:04.120
And I appreciate all of you. Things are going to get very, very intense, especially as the 2022
00:49:10.460
elections come on. I think that's what a lot of this mandate is about. I think that's what a lot
00:49:13.880
of this power grab is about. You're going to see it not just on the public health stuff. You're going
00:49:17.540
to see it on the election integrity bills. Hold firm. Stay strong. Keep the faith. I'm Michael

Hey everybody, this is Andrew Klavan, host of The Andrew Klavan Show. You know, some people are
00:50:21.620
depressed because the republic is collapsing, the end of days is approaching, and the moon's turned
00:50:26.200
to blood. But on The Andrew Klavan Show, that's where the fun just gets started. So come on over
00:50:30.880
to The Andrew Klavan Show and laugh your way through the fall of the republic with me, Andrew Klavan.
