The Michael Knowles Show - Ep. 882 - Free Kyle Rittenhouse

00:00:00.000 The case against Kyle Rittenhouse, the teenager who shot leftist rioters that had been threatening

00:00:05.740 him during the BLM attacks last summer, has been gradually collapsing since the trial began.

00:00:12.980 And yesterday, one of the leftists who was actually shot by Rittenhouse

00:00:17.600 may have put the final nail in the case's coffin.

00:00:22.640 It wasn't until you pointed your gun at him, advanced on him,

00:00:27.060 with your gun, now your hands down, pointed at him, that he fired, right?

00:00:33.120 Correct. 1.00

00:00:33.880 Oh, s***! That's it! That's it! 0.97

00:00:36.840 Directed verdict. Directed verdict on all the murder charges.

00:00:40.980 Kyle knows. Directed verdict on the murder charges.

00:00:45.060 He just exhaled. Kyle, oh, he looks like he's going to cry.

00:00:49.280 How do you not acquit after that?

00:00:57.060 Look at Binger! Look at Binger! Look at the, look at Big Boy!

00:00:59.780 Oh, Big Boy!

00:01:02.280 You know testimony is not going the way the state wanted when one of the prosecuting attorneys

00:01:07.800 ends the questioning with his head in his hands.

00:01:12.120 Kyle Rittenhouse was obviously acting in self-defense.

00:01:15.500 Given what we heard yesterday, not only should he not be convicted,

00:01:18.880 he shouldn't even have been charged.

00:01:21.180 But Rittenhouse's crime has nothing to do with guns or homicide.

00:01:24.860 If he had different colored skin or different political views,

00:01:29.860 the elite in this country would be calling for him to walk.

00:01:35.300 Rittenhouse's real crime, oh, it's one of the worst crimes of all. 0.92

00:01:38.800 It's being a right-wing white guy. 0.95

00:01:42.120 I'm Michael Knowles. This is the Michael Knowles Show.

00:01:43.600 Welcome back to the show. My favorite comment yesterday is from M4, who says,

00:01:55.120 listening to this show in school because I learn more from this guy than my lib teachers.

00:02:00.300 Thank goodness I'm a senior and leaving this year.

00:02:03.840 Well, I'm very honored.

00:02:04.780 I am very honored to be subverting America's educational institutions from the inside,

00:02:11.080 from the inside of earbuds that you're listening to in class.

00:02:14.880 One other great way to listen to the show, by the way,

00:02:17.480 if you're not doing it in school while your lib teachers prattle on about

00:02:21.240 wah, wah, wah, wah, wah, or whatever, like the teachers in Peanuts,

00:02:23.880 is when you're sitting out at night over a delicious cigar,

00:02:26.820 which is why I would strongly recommend you check out Thompson Cigars.

00:02:30.360 Maybe you are brand new to the world of cigars.

00:02:32.900 Maybe you are an aficionado with many, many years of smoking experience.

00:02:38.740 Regardless, or if you're somewhere in the middle,

00:02:41.500 Thompson Cigar Company is the place to go.

00:02:43.980 I've actually been a customer of Thompson since my earliest days,

00:02:47.860 dabbling in cigars all the way up to the present.

00:02:50.840 I still have some of the first box my mother bought me from Thompson Cigars

00:02:54.600 when I was 16 years old.

00:02:57.080 Absolutely wonderful company.

00:02:58.500 They got the best selection out there, bar none.

00:03:00.220 It's not even close.

00:03:01.100 They've got the best deals out there.

00:03:03.660 And you don't always have to buy a box.

00:03:05.040 If you don't want to invest that much, you can buy their great five-pack samplers.

00:03:08.620 You can try all sorts of great smokes, and you don't need to commit.

00:03:11.800 Then you find one you like, and you buy a few boxes.

00:03:14.360 It's the greatest.

00:03:15.160 I love them.

00:03:16.300 What, I've been a customer of these now for 15 years,

00:03:18.880 and I intend to be a customer for the rest of my life.

00:03:21.860 Sit back, take a break from all the craziness with a cigar from Thompson.

00:03:24.400 Thompson, these guys rarely do offers.

00:03:27.120 Right now, Thompson is offering our listeners 15% off orders over $75 or 20% off orders over $99.

00:03:45.420 The New York Times is lying about what happened yesterday at the trial, by the way.

00:03:51.560 Just so you know, if you're reading CNN or the New York Times or whatever,

00:03:54.240 there was a tweet that went out from Julie Bozeman from the New York Times.

00:03:57.500 It says, quote,

00:03:58.180 Grosskreutz, he was the guy testifying.

00:04:00.920 He was the guy who had been shot by Kyle Rittenhouse.

00:04:05.720 Grosskreutz, a paramedic from West Allis, a Milwaukee suburb, was shot in the arm by Rittenhouse.

00:04:10.540 Grosskreutz was holding a handgun pointed in the air when Rittenhouse shot him from a short distance away.

00:04:15.820 Julie Bozeman from the New York Times sent out that tweet after yesterday's testimony.

00:04:21.860 So after she knew it was bogus, she sends out that tweet.

00:04:26.640 Then this guy testifies and says, no, I was pointing the gun at him.

00:04:31.760 And that's the only time he shot.

00:04:33.060 Eventually, she deleted the tweet.

00:04:34.420 But the media are really, really desperate to portray Kyle Rittenhouse as a white supremacist,

00:04:40.940 right wing white supremacist.

00:04:42.760 No, he was a guy acting in self-defense while BLM and Antifa burned down not just his city, but the country.

00:04:48.380 And why were they rioting?

00:04:49.560 They were rioting because police rightly shot someone named Jacob Blake,

00:04:53.860 who had just sexually assaulted a woman, was driving off with her kids.

00:04:57.180 But the media and the left took his side, Jacob Blake's side, 0.98

00:05:00.880 because they're anti-cop, because white people bad, black people good, because right winger is bad, 0.63

00:05:06.540 left winger is good, because cops bad, criminals good, because they have a narrative in mind that 0.96

00:05:12.740 they're going to push.

00:05:14.480 And Kyle Rittenhouse fit the narrative of the bad guy.

00:05:17.480 And the problem is the facts on the ground completely contradict their narrative.

00:05:22.320 Because Kyle Rittenhouse, from everything we know about this case, was acting in self-defense.

00:05:26.960 They should call it a day now.

00:05:29.260 The prosecuting attorney should just walk off the job, say, you know what?

00:05:33.200 Sorry, we tried.

00:05:34.380 See you.

00:05:35.200 And let Rittenhouse off the hook.

00:05:36.620 Speaking of racism, or alleged racism, or perceived racism,

00:05:42.420 Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, he's back from his 17 years of paternity leave.

00:05:48.020 He is now back on the job, and he is taking on the big problems,

00:05:53.420 namely all the structural racism of bridges and highways.

00:05:58.900 Can you give us the construct of how you will deconstruct the racism that was built into the

00:06:07.240 roadways that you talked to the GRIO earlier when you broke that information with us?

00:06:11.260 Can you talk to us about how that could be deconstructed?

00:06:14.480 For sure, yeah.

00:06:15.280 So the principle of Justice 40 is that at least 40 percent of the clean investments in this bill

00:06:21.300 will go to benefit the communities that are overburdened and underserved.

00:06:25.380 So part one of that is defining those investments that are eligible, and that's a lot of it,

00:06:29.740 and we're working to map out kind of program by program, mode by mode, what would qualify.

00:06:34.520 For example, if we're buying clean buses, right, how do we make sure in terms of where those buses go,

00:06:39.960 but also looking at the business opportunity, the jobs that are going to be created,

00:06:43.320 the businesses that will have a chance to compete for the business opportunities it creates.

00:06:48.240 That, too, I think is a very important element of equity here that's in the spirit of Justice 40.

00:06:52.740 And again, we have a lot of guidance and oversight from the White House since that's an administration-wide

00:06:57.320 initiative. We know that we've got to build our own internal kind of ways of aligning and defining

00:07:04.500 that inside the administration. Can anybody translate that into English for me? Because I,

00:07:10.140 you know, I consider myself fairly capable with the English language. I have no idea what he just said.

00:07:16.060 Actually, I know what he didn't say. Okay, I know what he's dancing around. He's like the kid who

00:07:25.360 shows up to class without doing the reading. He is, I don't, whatever he's saying about the roads and

00:07:30.160 the bridges, it really doesn't matter. The reason I bring up this clip is because Pete Buttigieg is the

00:07:35.540 perfect representative of one of the biggest problems in facing our society today, namely BS. Okay,

00:07:44.420 he's a BS artist is what he is. He, because he's very intelligent. He's very intelligent. You can't

00:07:49.960 deny the guy and he's smooth and he's a quick talker and he smiles and he's really nice, but he's a BS 0.54

00:07:55.880 artist. And these guys tend to do really well. I think, I think Pete went to Harvard or he went to

00:08:01.100 some fancy schools and he, he worked in consulting, which is the most BS industry there is. And it's a

00:08:07.860 scam on corporate America. If you ask me, Pete Buttigieg has been trained his whole life

00:08:13.540 to just give the appearance of substance, give the appearance that he's saying something without

00:08:19.420 saying anything at all. And you hear it all the time in all the bogus ideological classes, like,

00:08:25.100 I don't know, urban studies or ethnicity and migration or gender studies or all the studies

00:08:29.440 classes. And in consulting, well, you know, first what we're going to do is we're going to study

00:08:33.880 equity and we're going to make sure that there's synergy between the different departments. And,

00:08:38.580 and what's really important is we want to make sure that our resources are going to the underserved

00:08:42.440 and the places where they're not over-served, they're underserved. And so it's going to be just,

00:08:46.720 and what it's really about is equitable and it's about the transfer and it's about growth and synergy.

00:08:54.500 Thank you for listening to my presentation. What a, he doesn't even, what, he doesn't even answer

00:08:58.260 the question. And what was the question? Question, how are you going to deconstruct the, the racism

00:09:04.580 that was constructed on and you got it? So you're going to deconstruct and de-layer and, and you're

00:09:10.040 going to through critical and it's all just bogus. Hey, buddy, fix the roads. How about that? Fix the

00:09:15.500 roads, deal with the supply chain crisis. That's, isn't that the bare minimum of what the transportation

00:09:21.620 secretary is supposed to do? Make sure that things are capable of being transported. I don't know what 0.99

00:09:27.560 this. Well, you can't do that because we're all just high on our own fumes of absolute BS in this

00:09:35.240 country. And so the, we can all talk pie in the sky really, really well about climate change and the

00:09:41.820 metaverse and the systemic structural racism. But the basic elements of our society are crumbling.

00:09:49.700 Our roads, literally crumbling. Our highways and our bridges, literally crumbling. Our elections,

00:09:54.580 crumbling. We don't have faith in those anymore. Our basic institutions, crumbling. All of that is

00:09:59.800 falling apart because we're all focused on this pie in the sky nonsense. Speaking of transportation,

00:10:05.180 by the way, an update to that race in New Jersey where a truck driver who spent a very little amount of

00:10:11.560 money on his entire campaign beat the most powerful Democrat in the legislature. So this guy,

00:10:18.480 Edward Durr beat the top ranking New Jersey Democrat lawmaker, Steve Sweeney, president of the New Jersey

00:10:27.020 State Senate. But Sweeney won't, won't concede. He says, we've got to count every vote. And he just found

00:10:34.860 thousands of previously undiscovered ballots. I don't know where they were. They must've been

00:10:41.200 hiding under a bed somewhere or something. So he found these ballots and he wants to make sure that every,

00:10:45.700 every ballot is counted. This is very on brand for New Jersey to have this transparent sort of

00:10:54.700 corruption because it wasn't supposed to happen. The top ranking Democrat was supposed to keep his seat.

00:11:00.040 This upstart truck driver was not supposed to win and he did win. And now they're going to make up a

00:11:04.640 bunch of ballots and try to steal the election. This happens all the time. A reminder, just a reminder,

00:11:09.500 as we look ahead to 2022 and 2024, and even as we discuss 2020, election fraud is old as time. LBJ and

00:11:16.920 FDR used to joke about it. Plenty of elections have been stolen in this country. There's fraud to some

00:11:21.920 degree in every single election. So we got to be watching out for that sort of thing. And we can't

00:11:26.720 let the Democrats bully us and tell us that if you ever question the integrity of elections, you're

00:11:32.280 promoting the big lie. And you're basically a Nazi, even though they don't, they don't even really

00:11:36.300 understand that the origin of the phrase, the big lie does go back to the Nazis, but it was actually

00:11:40.640 a line used by Hitler and accusing the Jews of perpetrating a big lie against a German general,

00:11:46.640 maybe Eric Ludendorff. And so actually, if you accuse someone of perpetrating the big lie, you're

00:11:50.360 putting yourself in the position of Adolf Hitler. Anyway, the Democrats don't know any of that.

00:11:53.780 They're trying to bully you. They're trying to make you seem like a Nazi or white supremacist or 0.95

00:11:58.940 whatever. Don't do it. There's always going to be election fraud. We need to be really on guard against

00:12:02.500 it because the Democrats are going to try to steal elections. They're trying to do

00:12:06.260 it right now in New Jersey. We need to be healthy, strong. We got to get all of our affairs in

00:13:25.660 to have confidence and control this fall. Roman ready. What's going on in New Jersey right now is

00:13:31.720 you're seeing a conflict between democracy and liberalism. Okay. In the democracy, the voters

00:13:39.040 in this district of New Jersey voted for a Republican truck driver over the Democrat president

00:13:45.020 of the New Jersey state Senate. More people voted for the truck driver than voted for the corrupt

00:13:49.860 Democrat. So that's democracy. But liberalism says the Democrat should win.

00:13:55.660 Because the Democrat is on the side of progress and the Republican is on the side of regress and

00:13:59.900 he's on the wrong side of history and he's not supposed to win elections. So you're seeing the

00:14:03.040 conflict right now between democracy and liberalism. And usually when the left refers to democracy,

00:14:09.020 they're really referring to liberalism or progressivism or leftism. There's obviously a

00:14:13.760 lot of overlap between all of those concepts. This is why when the majority of Americans vote for

00:14:19.460 Donald Trump, that's a threat to our democracy. When Hillary Clinton loses an election, 1.00

00:14:23.660 that's a threat to our democracy. When Stacey Abrams loses an election, that's a threat to our 1.00

00:14:27.260 democracy. On the surface, it's not a threat to democracy. More people voted for the Republican.

00:14:33.360 But in the deeper sense, it's a threat to liberalism and the left equates liberalism and

00:14:38.620 democracy. Barack Obama did this yesterday at the UN Climate Summit. So Barack Obama can't keep his

00:14:45.140 trap shut. So he flies over to Glasgow to give a speech on global warming. And he blames,

00:14:51.620 unsurprisingly, Donald Trump and nationalism for global warming.

00:14:57.720 Back in the United States, of course, some of our progress stalled when my successor decided to

00:15:04.660 unilaterally pull out of the Paris Agreement in his first year in office. I wasn't real happy about

00:15:11.200 that. And yet, the determination of our state and local governments, along with the regulations and

00:15:24.020 investment that my administration had already put in place, allowed our country to keep moving forward,

00:15:29.060 despite hostility from the White House. I recognize we're living in a moment when international cooperation

00:15:38.200 has waned. A moment of greater geopolitical tension and stress, in part because of the pandemic,

00:15:51.300 in part because of the rise of nationalism and tribal impulses around the world. But there is one thing

00:15:59.340 that should transcend our day-to-day politics and normal geopolitics, and that is climate change.

00:16:06.780 There is so much in Barack Obama's statement there. It's a bunch of lies, but then a really

00:16:14.680 big secret truth. On the lies, he says, well, it's Donald Trump's fault that we're not meeting our

00:16:21.220 commitments. We're not doing that because of my successor. That is not true. Here we have great

00:16:27.120 reporting from the Daily Wire, reporting on a great study that came out in the statistical review of

00:16:32.800 world energy. It shows U.S. leading the world in reducing carbon dioxide emissions in the year after

00:16:39.880 the election of Donald Trump. We pull out of the Paris Climate Accord, and yet we led the world in

00:16:45.880 reducing CO2 emissions much more so than anyone else who actually remained signed on to the Paris thing.

00:16:52.740 So on the factual claim Obama's making, it's just not true. But on the political claim,

00:17:01.820 it shows you what this climate change stuff is all about. The climate change stuff is about taking

00:17:08.680 power. It's about taking power away from nations, taking power away from the people of nations, 0.96

00:17:15.280 and giving it to a global elite. He says it himself. He says nationalism is the problem.

00:17:24.440 Right? Again, on the factual level, it's not. Donald Trump pursued a course of relative nationalism,

00:17:30.260 pulled out of the global compact, and he did better on reducing carbon dioxide emissions

00:17:34.920 than all the other guys did. Obama kind of acknowledges it when he says,

00:17:38.020 now look, now listen, yeah, sure, the numbers kept going down and everything, but that's only

00:17:43.200 because the businesses and the locals and the states and the communities kept listening to me.

00:17:48.900 Regardless of the motivation, you're still proving the Trump point. You're still proving that the

00:17:54.920 nation working on its own outside of this transnational UN compact or Paris Climate Agreement

00:18:01.900 can and did do a better job than all of the nations working in concert for whatever reason.

00:18:10.100 Maybe it's because California just prefers to do it this way. Maybe it's because some company

00:18:15.660 prefers to cut the image, but they still did it. Okay. But what Obama says there at the end is the key.

00:18:22.460 He says, if there's one issue that should transcend our politics, it's climate change.

00:18:26.980 What do you mean transcend our politics? You can't transcend politics when you're talking

00:18:34.620 about public questions. Politics and public mean the same thing. Politics means things that relate

00:18:39.440 to public affairs. Okay. How we all live together. So what you're calling for is not putting politics

00:18:44.780 to the side. You're calling for a different kind of politics. Whenever Democrats say, don't make this

00:18:50.160 political, you can be dead certain they are about to say something very, very political.

00:18:54.760 And so what Obama's really saying is take your traditional political order, the traditional

00:19:01.760 political order of national sovereignty and constitutionalism and the people deciding how

00:19:05.520 they want to live and trade that in for globalism, for internationalism, for having the UN tell you

00:19:13.340 how you're going to live. If there's one issue that should do it, it's global warming. And of course it

00:19:19.540 is. Right. That if you can really make the claim that the world is about to end, unless we give up

00:19:26.220 our sovereignty and our political power to the UN or whatever global institution, then, then we'll,

00:19:32.860 we'll do it. If it's really an existential threat and we're all going to die in 12 years or 18 months

00:19:37.580 or whatever they keep telling us it is. Now, of course, those doomsday predictions, which they've

00:19:41.860 been making at least for the last 50 years and actually much further back than that, those never come

00:19:46.140 true because it's not real because it's a lie and it's a lie of demagogues to steal your power away.

00:19:51.240 And Barack Obama's doing it and he's even acknowledging it. If there's one thing that

00:19:55.700 should transcend our politics, it's global warming. Maybe that's the reason that they keep harping on

00:20:00.340 that one thing, even though their predictions keep failing. Speaking of Donald Trump, there's a poll

00:20:07.500 out that looks pretty good for Donald Trump. NPR, PBS NewsHour, Marist poll, 50% of Republicans and

00:20:14.100 right-leaning independents believe that Donald Trump has the best chance to win in 2024, not just win the

00:20:20.440 nomination, win the presidency. The, the poll found that 35% of respondents want someone other than Trump.

00:20:32.280 14% said they didn't yet know. So if you have the people who don't want Trump and the people

00:20:37.400 who don't yet know, you add them together, it's almost the same as the number of people who think

00:20:41.240 that Donald Trump has the best shot of winning the presidency. But the people who think Trump has

00:20:45.820 the best shot still edge them out a little bit, which is why everyone now is moving on. Who's going

00:20:51.620 to be the nominee? Is it going to be DeSantis? He's getting a lot of buzz because of what he's doing

00:20:58.280 in Florida. Is it going to be Cruz? Is it going to be Hawley? Is it going to be Kristi Noem? She's kind

00:21:04.480 of not getting as much talk anymore. Is it going to be Nikki Haley? Is it going to be, you know,

00:21:07.560 they keep floating all of these names. But the, and I like at least most of those people.

00:21:14.740 And I'm, I'm friends actually with some of those people. But the, the question that you're going to

00:21:21.280 have to answer first is what is Trump going to do? What is Trump going to do? If Trump gets in,

00:21:26.400 very likely he just clears the field. He's still got a ton of political support.

00:21:30.680 Now, maybe it's good if Trump runs. Maybe it's not good if Trump runs.

00:21:36.060 Maybe Trump is going to blow it. Maybe Trump is a singular candidate. Maybe people have had

00:21:40.700 enough of Trump. Maybe Trump didn't get to finish the job. I don't know. That's going to be debated

00:21:44.180 during the primary or during a pre-primary when everyone's jockeying for position.

00:21:51.220 But the one thing you can be sure of is you should not count Trump out yet. He still has a huge amount

00:21:57.120 of influence. And even if he doesn't run, the numbers in this poll make it seem like he sure

00:22:02.380 could be the kingmaker. And there are a lot of Republicans who don't want Trump to run.

00:22:07.720 Okay. There is a Frank Luntz who I think he was a never Trump Republican. He's, he's more of the

00:22:13.020 centrist, moderate wing of the Republican party. He, for many years did those focus groups where he'd

00:22:20.320 go on Sean Hannity's show and talk to 20 random people and, and say, Hey, what did you think of the

00:22:25.000 debate? And that was supposed to tell us something about what the American people thought. I don't

00:22:28.060 know. It seemed a little gimmicky to me, but Frank Luntz has come out big news. He goes, quote,

00:22:33.900 John Carl, who's a left-wing journalist is about to break a major story about Trump,

00:22:39.260 the GOP and January 20th. It will embarrass a lot of people. It's also in his new book,

00:22:46.120 John Carl's new book, Betrayal, which isn't out yet. Clue. It's been over 100 years since the

00:22:53.060 president of the United States did this. So we're all waiting with bated breath. What is it,

00:22:56.720 Frank? What's he, what's he going to reveal? What did Trump do in his new book? John Carl reports

00:23:02.240 that Trump actually quit the GOP before his plane took off on January 20th, 2021. He also will be

00:23:09.880 the honoree at the house GOP gala tonight. Does Trump deny he quit the GOP? Does anyone deny this

00:23:14.960 Trump? Hold on. You're telling me the big shocking report, whether it's true or not, I don't know,

00:23:19.520 probably isn't true given the source, but you're saying the big shocking news, the bottom of the

00:23:25.260 whole story is Donald Trump has a tense relationship with the Republican party. No,

00:23:31.560 my gosh, stop the presses. No, no. Who is supposed to be shocked by this? All the people who love the

00:23:38.260 GOP? No one loves the GOP. That's why Donald Trump was able to successfully lead a hostile takeover of

00:23:44.860 the GOP. What planet are these people living on? These people, you know, these people,

00:23:52.940 they might not be the brightest bulbs in the pack. Okay. They might not be the sharpest tools in the

00:23:58.740 shit. They might not even understand that they could refinance their mortgage right now and save 0.99

00:24:03.100 a lot of money. If you want to do that, I recommend you check out American Financing.

00:24:07.060 The year may be coming to a close, but there is still time to make a positive impact on your budget

00:24:13.120 before year end. Mortgage rates remain near money saving lows. Now you might be thinking, why?

00:24:20.200 Why? My mortgage is fine as it is. Well, what you should be asking is how can my mortgage work for

00:24:26.340 me? That answer can be found at American Financing, America's home for home loans.

00:24:31.160 They don't pressure you. Instead, their salary-based mortgage consultants get to know you so they can

00:24:38.960 lead you to greater overall savings. It could be a shorter loan term. It could be consolidating debt

00:24:44.220 because there is more to a refinance than just a lower rate. And it's the reason why they save

00:24:49.480 customers up to $1,000 a month. Why not see what they can do for you? Call 800-685-5696. That number

00:25:15.820 federal government. While it is an unprecedented move for The Daily Wire, we don't see any other

00:25:21.680 option. Okay, we are not going to give in to Joe Biden's unconstitutional mandate. The Daily Wire's

00:25:26.740 lawsuit was filed by the Dillon Law Group and Alliance Defending Freedom in the U.S. Court of

00:25:30.760 Appeals for the Sixth Circuit. The lawsuit alleges that the Biden administration lacks constitutional

00:25:35.740 and statutory authority to issue the employer mandate, that the mandate failed to meet the

00:25:40.420 requirements for issuing a rule taking effect immediately without the normal process of

00:25:45.740 considering public comments. And the Biden administration has warned that any companies

00:25:50.400 that do not comply with this federal overreach could be fined as much as $136,000 per violation,

00:25:58.660 per violation, which is something pretty much no company could cover, certainly not in the long

00:26:03.840 run. That's why we need your help. If you are not a member yet, please consider joining us today.

00:27:19.200 The Republican Party can't win for losing. The Republican Party, as ever, seems dead set

00:27:25.740 on clutching defeat from the jaws of victory. These people have no idea what's going on.

00:27:33.400 I can't get over it. I cannot get over it. What just happened in Virginia? Virginia,

00:27:42.880 we took this governor's race that by all rights we should have lost. Virginia is a very blue

00:27:50.040 commonwealth. Terry McAuliffe had a big organization there. And we won Virginia by focusing on education,

00:27:59.540 by focusing on real culture war type issues, the radical racial theories being taught in schools,

00:28:07.760 the radical sexual theories being taught in schools, the transgender bathroom policies 0.97

00:28:12.820 that allowed a boy in a skirt to go in and rape a girl in a girl's bathroom in Virginia, 0.99

00:28:20.320 Loudoun County. That's what won us the race. Right-wing culture war issues 0.98

00:28:28.440 that talk about the kooky theories on race and sex being pushed by the left.

00:28:36.460 So what does the GOP do? Well, the GOP, the Republican Party, just announced, heading into the

00:28:42.580 midterms, a new pride coalition. A pride coalition, an LGBT coalition.

00:28:54.760 You win a race. You win a race in Virginia by running against transgenderism. And the first thing 1.00

00:29:03.060 you do is start a transgender coalition for the GOP. Can we just dissolve the party now? Can we start a 0.90

00:29:10.600 new, is there a new party we can, I can join? No, I'm not going to join the Libertarian Party. Give me

00:29:15.080 a break. No, I'm not going to, I don't even know what the other ones are. No, I guess, I guess not

00:29:19.500 for now. I guess we just need to fire the people working at the GOP, the RNC, and put serious people

00:29:26.280 in their place. By the way, this is not to say I don't think gay people should vote for Republicans. 0.95

00:29:33.440 I think they should. Many of my dearest friends are gay Republicans, all right? But they're not, 1.00

00:29:38.520 they're not pride Republicans. They're not pro, what do I mean by that? I mean, there are all sorts

00:29:44.560 of people who have all sorts of unusual desires and sorts of things. It's a very diverse world.

00:29:52.800 I would say most of the people who identify as gay or bisexual or lesbian or transgender,

00:29:58.540 whatever. They, they tend to go Democrat, right? They tend to lean left. There are some who do not

00:30:06.540 go Democrat. The ones who are not voting for Democrats are the ones for whom their sexual

00:30:11.740 desires are not the be all and end all of their identity. They have deeper foundations of their

00:30:17.700 identity as well. And their sexual desires are a complicating factor for that. And there may be an

00:30:23.100 aspect of their identity, but they're not the basic thing. We are never, ever going to win over

00:30:28.380 people for whom sexual identity politics forms the essence of their being. It's, it cannot happen

00:30:34.800 because it is intrinsically leftist. It is intrinsically not conservative for your sexual desire

00:30:44.940 to be the foundation of your identity. So there might be a fella who's sexually attracted to other fellas, 1.00

00:30:52.200 but he votes Republican because he thinks about God. He reveres the founding fathers. He likes sound

00:31:05.700 economic policy. He wants to pursue American interests on the world stage over other interests. And those

00:31:13.660 things are just much, much bigger for him than who he, who he is attracted to. Pride. Pride goeth before

00:31:21.840 destruction and a haughty spirit before a fall. Goodness, gracious people. Pride we're running on

00:31:28.600 now. This is the RNC, the people who run the RNC. They, they seem to be Democrats from four or five

00:31:37.620 years ago. And I wouldn't even say Democrats from 10 years ago. Democrats 10 years ago wouldn't run on

00:31:43.020 pride. Democrats 10 years ago believed that marriage was a sacred bond between a man and a woman.

00:31:48.100 Barack Obama said that. Hillary Clinton said that. So they're not even Democrats 10 years ago. They're

00:31:53.260 Democrats five years ago because they don't believe in a damn thing. It is so, and worse than that. I 0.98

00:31:58.520 mean, you can just say, well, they're just cynical opportunistic politicians, but they're not even smart 0.90

00:32:03.540 about it. Not, not one single vote will be won by a Republican party pride coalition. Not one vote.

00:32:12.560 All of the people with eclectic, unusual sexual desires who are going to vote for Republicans

00:32:18.920 are going to vote for Republicans for other reasons. Now, a pride coalition might turn off a lot of 0.97

00:32:26.700 voters who think that there's really no difference between the Democrats and the Republicans, and they've

00:32:29.900 got good reason to think that. But you're not going to, just as a tactical political operation,

00:32:34.880 you're not going to win a single vote. Leave it to the RNC to try to clutch defeat from the jaws of

00:32:42.440 victory. It's so pathetic. Now, there's one counter-argument here, okay? The counter-argument 1.00

00:32:47.440 as to why the GOP needs an LGBT pride coalition is that the country is turning super-duper gay, 0.93

00:32:57.020 super-duper fast, okay? And this is backed up by some social scientific data. So there's a survey out

00:33:05.420 from Arizona Christian University that shows that 39%, almost two out of every five 18 to 24-year-olds

00:33:16.520 in the United States identify as LGBTQ. Two in five young Americans say that they're gay.

00:33:31.120 But they're not, okay? They're not. You're not. I'm sorry. You're not. You're not that interesting.

00:33:36.860 You're not that special. You're not. You're just confused. And I don't even mean to be this harsh

00:33:42.380 to the nearly 40% of young Americans who insist that they're part of the alphabet soup. But you're

00:33:49.180 not. You're just a young person. Your human sexuality and human desire is a complex thing,

00:33:55.760 and you need to get over yourself, okay? What this says to me from a political standpoint

00:34:03.000 is something that we all should have known for a very long time, namely that LGBT, the whole

00:34:09.420 sexual identity alphabet soup. They are not oppressed. On the contrary,

00:34:16.880 there is a certain privilege that goes along with identifying as LGBTQ. There is a social currency that

00:34:24.660 goes along with that. This is just basic incentives. That is why more and more people

00:34:29.260 are identifying that way. Unless you're going the Alex Jones route and you believe that they're just

00:34:33.960 putting something in the water that's turning the freaking Zoomers gay, then I think you need to 1.00

00:34:39.200 recognize there is a social contagion aspect to this, that people are being incentivized to identify 0.97

00:34:45.380 this way. It makes perfect sense. It goes back to the Kyle Rittenhouse thing. The worst possible

00:34:50.140 thing you can possibly be in society today is a straight white male. You are the incarnation of evil 1.00

00:34:55.580 if you are a straight white male. You are told that straight white males are the most privileged 1.00

00:35:00.580 people in the country. The reality is you are the least privileged person in the country, at least

00:35:04.860 according to the law and at least according to the new prevailing social norms. You're a terrible 0.99

00:35:10.240 person. You should be disadvantaged in college admissions. You should be disadvantaged in the job 1.00

00:35:15.460 search. You should be segregated out of certain social spaces. But if you can, if you're, let's say

00:35:21.080 you're a white guy and you think, gosh, I'm awful. How do I, how do I make myself seem oppressed and

00:35:28.080 thereby paradoxically become privileged? Well, you would identify as LGBT or whatever.

00:35:35.660 Being LGBT is cool and hip and trendy and it's the official state religion, right? The metaphysical 1.00

00:35:44.600 claims of LGBT, especially the T part, namely that your body has nothing to do with who you really are,

00:35:50.660 is, that is now officially pushed by the state. It's pushed in the schools. It's pushed everywhere

00:35:55.440 throughout our society. So you can either go along with that or you can be a heretic. If you're a 0.63

00:36:00.200 Christian or a Jew or a Muslim or you just hold a basically Aristotelian view of human nature and 0.65

00:36:06.160 sexuality, you're a heretic away from the state religion. What's funny is there's the other side 0.68

00:36:13.800 of this, which is the LGB part of it, which says that you basically are only your body. The T part says

00:36:20.720 you're not your body at all. You're only this kind of spirit. And the LGB part says you're basically

00:36:25.200 only your body. You're born this way. Whatever your sexual desires are, you have to follow them.

00:36:29.200 You have to pursue them to their logical conclusion. And you basically have no right

00:36:33.300 to control or rein those things in because that would be repressive and repression is really bad.

00:36:40.400 So it's incoherent. But the one view they don't hold is that we're body and soul and spirit,

00:36:46.540 right? That we're both of these things, physical and metaphysical. The reason I mentioned this silly

00:36:51.160 survey is political though. The reason I mention it is we ought to use this knowledge to our own

00:37:00.200 advantage. We as conservatives. We ought to use the knowledge that people can be easily swayed even

00:37:10.540 about an increasingly important aspect of their identity by prevailing social wins. I promise you,

00:37:20.300 if tomorrow it became less cool to identify as transgender or whatever, fewer people would do it.

00:37:27.180 If it carried less social currency, less privilege, less legal advantage in some cases, fewer people

00:37:33.480 would do it. And that's how things were before. And now it carries all of these sorts of privileges

00:37:40.420 and advantages. So more people are doing that too. Contrary to, I guess, more the libertarian

00:37:48.260 right, what they have said, the politics, the government actually can shape the culture and can

00:37:54.380 shape people's identities and the way that social mores and standards and taboos and things like that

00:37:59.660 evolve. And kids are being taught this stuff in school. I mean, it's no surprise that after being

00:38:04.760 taught in school that straight white guys are evil and being taught critical race theory and being 0.92

00:38:09.840 taught transgender ideology and being taught this for many years at this point, that more and more 0.96

00:38:13.880 students would identify in accordance with those beliefs. And meanwhile, the left is denying that

00:38:18.840 those things are being taught in schools in the first place. Rick Scott just went on CNN. He was

00:38:22.880 talking to one of the CNN ladies. Her name is Brianna Kyler, but she's just one of the sort of 0.98

00:38:28.840 interchangeable automatons on CNN. And he mentioned the importance of critical race theory to this race

00:38:36.860 that we just saw in Virginia. And the CNN lady interrupts to say, beep, boop, beep, boop, critical race 0.99

00:38:44.680 theory is not being taught in schools. Parents know it's been, their kids are being indoctrinated with

00:38:49.740 critical race theory in Virginia and the Democrats wanted to deny it. And so the parents showed up because

00:38:56.040 they don't like being lied to. I mean, just, just to be clear, it's not, it's not in the curriculum

00:38:59.440 in Virginia. Just, just to be. Here, let me just read you a few things. Just to. In 2015,

00:39:06.600 while Terry McAuliffe was governor, the Virginia Department of Education promoted incorporating a

00:39:10.820 critical race theory lens in education. You can still find it on the Department of Education's

00:39:16.040 website. Still there. In February 2019, a superintendent memo for the Virginia Department of Education

00:39:21.440 promoted crystal race theory and the idea of white fragility. It's not, it's not part of the

00:39:26.700 curriculum. I looked at it yesterday. It's still there, Breonna. I do want to ask you just to be

00:39:30.840 clear about where you are. Breonna, wait a minute. Let's all agree. They were trying to

00:39:35.460 indoctate kids. Terry McAuliffe denied it. It's still on the website. It is, this is happening. 0.97

00:39:42.080 And I hope Democrats continue to say it's not happening because parents are dumb. They can see 1.00

00:39:50.140 it. Your parents are dumb, you said, aren't dumb. No, they're not. I think parents are smart. 1.00

00:39:58.180 Okay. Well, it's not being, and she goes on, by the way, she keeps going on. She goes,

00:40:01.320 it's not, it's not being taught in schools. Okay. We just need, and he kind of leaves it there and

00:40:05.460 then they move on. It's not, no, it's not, it's not being taught. It's not being taught in schools.

00:40:10.120 Then he reads from the Virginia Department of Education website where it lays out exactly how

00:40:17.320 critical race theory is being taught in schools. And what does she do? Does she admit that she was

00:40:21.280 wrong? Does she, no, she goes, uh, uh, uh, glitch. Uh, uh, you can see like the smoke is starting to

00:40:27.980 come out of her ears. She goes, uh, no, it doesn't, does not compute. Uh, uh, critical race theory is

00:40:32.560 not in the curriculum. Beep, boop, beep, beep, beep, beep. No, um, but, uh, Brianna, the, here I'm just

00:40:39.000 reading it says, uh, from the Virginia State Department of Education, uh, critical race

00:40:43.960 theory is totally being taught in the curriculum.com, right? It's just like exactly from the

00:40:48.400 website, uh, but does not know critical race theory, beep, boop, beep, boop. And they can't

00:40:53.320 do it. They have no answer to that because she obviously got a talking point from her bosses at 1.00

00:40:58.480 CNN to say at all turns, deny that critical race theory is being taught in schools. And unfortunately,

00:41:04.680 she was not prepared with the evidence that it is being taught in schools. And that's what the

00:41:09.040 whole race was about. The best she can muster at the end is what you, did you just say parents are

00:41:13.720 dumb? Ha ha ha. And he goes, no, no, I said the opposite of that. Again, once again, it's the 1.00

00:41:17.160 opposite of what you're saying that it is, but keep it up, keep it up, Democrats, keep it up because

00:41:22.180 they don't, because they don't know what we think. They don't know how to respond to the points that we

00:41:26.700 make. And sometimes that ends in disaster for them as it just did in that Virginia governor's race.

00:41:34.680 Speaking of woke indoctrination, there is a new, there is a new university being founded here in

00:41:42.400 the United States, University of Austin. The University of Austin is being pushed by Barry

00:41:49.980 Weiss, former New York Times writer who is now off on her own. She was not sufficient. She is a liberal,

00:41:56.040 but she wasn't sufficiently woke for the New York Times. So now she has a substack and her substack is

00:42:00.660 frankly, much more interesting than anything put out by the New York Times. Headline, we can't wait

00:42:06.000 for universities to fix themselves. So we're starting a new one. I left my post as president

00:42:09.420 of St. John's College in Annapolis. Oh, well, this is a post from Pano Canilos, who was president of

00:42:15.420 St. John's College in Annapolis to build a university in Austin dedicated to the fearless pursuit

00:42:20.880 of truth. And they go on and it's, you know, it's an interesting manifesto here to say that,

00:42:31.080 you know, universities are extremely left-wing now and extremely woke and there's not freedom

00:42:37.020 of speech on campus and freedom of inquiry. They write, in these top schools and in so many others,

00:42:42.160 can we actually claim that the pursuit of truth, once the central purpose of a university remains

00:42:45.520 the highest virtue? Do we honestly believe that the crucial means to that end, freedom of inquiry and

00:42:49.400 civil discourse prevail when illiberalism has become a pervasive feature of campus life?

00:42:55.820 So they go on and they say, you know, this is bad. People are being treated like thought criminals.

00:43:00.380 There's a lot of censoriousness, which actually doesn't mean what people think it means. People

00:43:03.640 think censoriousness means censorship and that to be censorious is to be the sort of person who

00:43:09.380 censors someone. It's actually not. It means to be harshly critical. So anyway, it comes up. It turns

00:43:14.960 out that fear can become endemic in a free society. This is very oppressive and that universities are

00:43:20.900 supposed to defend, quote, the right to think the unthinkable, discuss the unmentionable and

00:43:24.200 challenge the unchallengeable. Okay. So, so what they are founding right now is a liberal university

00:43:32.280 and these words get really confusing because we talk about liberal education, but that's not the same

00:43:39.300 thing as a liberal university. Like liberal education and the liberal arts is not the same thing as

00:43:44.220 liberalism. Liberal education and, and liberal, the liberal arts. Those are phrases that are really

00:43:52.900 popularized in the 11th century, 12th century, 13th century. These are phrases that, and that actually

00:44:00.480 have roots in antiquity that refer to the, the things that you need to know to be free, to make sense of

00:44:08.000 your freedom. You are educated to become a free person. If we're not educated, then we're just

00:44:14.720 slaves to our own appetites and desires. And all we do all day is shoot up drugs and stuff our faces

00:44:19.060 and get drunk and have sex. But if you, if you study the liberal arts and you become educated in

00:44:26.080 this liberal way, you will be able to tame down all of those passions. You will cultivate the mind.

00:44:31.080 You will, you will cultivate all the deepest truths that your civilization has uncovered and you will

00:44:37.600 become a free person and a rational person and able to control yourself. Liberalism is an ideology

00:44:44.680 that developed during the enlightenment. And liberalism is a sort of rationalist ideology that,

00:44:50.840 you know, branches off in lots of different directions, but it posits certain rights and

00:44:54.820 certain forms of government. And we're living in the world that liberalism created. They're not the same

00:44:59.740 thing. And so how would I distinguish between the two? Liberal, like liberal education, liberal arts

00:45:07.580 is focused, as these guys say, on truth, right? There is a certain truth and you, we need to pursue

00:45:12.740 that truth. And some things are right and some things are wrong. And if you put the wrong answer

00:45:16.720 down, you're going to get punished. And if you put the right answer down, you're going to get rewarded

00:45:19.920 with good grades. Liberalism as an ideology pursues lots of other things like free speech absolutism

00:45:27.720 or like academic freedom, this idea that you should be able to say and preach whatever you want in

00:45:35.580 the university. Everyone should have the right to speak in the university. That's not a particularly

00:45:38.940 conservative opinion. And I fear what's going to happen with this university, the University of

00:45:44.540 Austin, is that it's going to devolve in the same way that the other universities have in our

00:45:49.700 country. Because academic freedom is a hoax. It's BS. I mean, the conservative movement was founded

00:45:55.420 with a book, Making Fun of Academic Freedom. You actually shouldn't have total academic freedom

00:46:00.960 at a university. You shouldn't, a Nazi should not be able to teach your sociology class. A communist 0.96

00:46:06.660 should not be able to teach your economics classes. The point of the university is bringing together all

00:46:13.080 of these disciplines and pointing toward truth. And unfortunately, there is a reason that the

00:46:18.860 university is created by the Catholic Church. There is a reason that the university is invented

00:46:25.380 within Christendom at the highest point of Christendom. And then it kind of just starts

00:46:30.040 to collapse as Christianity fades away from our culture. Because you need a unity of truth. You need

00:46:36.640 a monopoly on truth. You need to be able to say, this is true and this is false. And we are not going to

00:46:41.460 teach these ideas. And we are only going to teach these ideas. And they're going to lead towards

00:46:45.360 something. The idea of truth, pursuing truth fearlessly, and the idea of academic freedom

00:46:50.500 are actually kind of opposites. They don't really go together that well. Because truth says that there

00:46:57.100 is objective reality. And the academic freedom ideology says that everything's kind of relative

00:47:01.880 and we need to hear everybody out. But you actually don't. To quote Bill Buckley, skepticism has utility

00:47:06.000 only when it leads to conviction. So I don't want to be too down on this effort. They've got some

00:47:11.500 conservatives and a lot of it is just kind of classical liberal types. But they've got some

00:47:15.540 conservatives involved. So Rob Amari is involved. Some pretty serious conservatives. So I wish them

00:47:21.200 well. I don't really mean to criticize. They're getting enough criticism from the left. And I really

00:47:26.140 hope this thing goes well. But they are going to have to resolve that tension. And they are going to

00:47:30.720 have to choose. Are they going to be a university that just pursues the liberal ideology, academic freedom,

00:47:38.280 relativism, subjectivism? Or are they going to say, no, some things are true and some things are

00:47:41.640 false. And we're going to teach the true stuff. And we're going to kick out the false stuff.

00:47:47.760 Speaking of good and bad and right and wrong, we've only got about a minute left. But I really

00:47:50.760 want to get to this story. The Travis Scott story. You know, a bunch of people were killed at a

00:47:55.520 Travis Scott concert. Eight people were killed between the ages of 14 and 27. As young as 14,

00:48:00.780 which really makes you ask, I mean, it's a horrible tragedy. It does make you ask, why was a 14-year-old

00:48:04.220 this kind of concert with this filth and this demonic imagery? And why were they there? I don't

00:48:11.480 know. I mean, I went to concerts when I was 14 and 15. And so I really feel for these parents and

00:48:16.540 everything. But the concert was run very poorly. There were way too many people in there. It was

00:48:20.260 very unsafe. There are these theories coming around that this was some kind of demonic sacrifice or

00:48:25.540 something. I think that's probably a little extreme as well. But one thing we can't deny is there

00:48:30.380 are demonic symbols here, okay? Travis Scott was wearing a t-shirt of people walking through a

00:48:34.800 portal and turning into demons. The motto for the show was, see you on the other side. One of the

00:48:40.260 entrances was a gigantic mouth that looked like the Garden of Earthly Delights painting by Hieronymus

00:48:46.100 Bosch. Okay, yesterday, satanic panic was trending. This idea that, you know, oh no, everyone's worried

00:48:52.020 about Satan like they were in the 80s and 90s. First of all, you shouldn't panic about Satan, but you

00:48:56.080 should reject Satan and all his works and all his empty promises. And furthermore, I had never heard

00:49:01.920 of Travis Scott. I listened to some of his music. I watched some of his videos. And it's filth. I

00:49:07.520 mean, it's just degenerate filth. And if you listen to it, you are going to degrade yourself. And there's 0.67

00:49:12.220 just no reason to listen to it. And so there's a lot of blame, I'm sure, to go around here.

00:49:18.700 The people who put the concert on, the security staff, maybe the guy himself, Travis Scott.

00:49:23.160 But this is really bad stuff. This is an ugly culture. This is an ugly culture that

00:49:27.560 gins up all of the worst kind of base passions. Great writers have been talking about this since

00:49:32.000 antiquity. It's got all this sort of ugly satanic imagery, kind of like a little Nas X. And so if

00:49:38.960 there's, if the argument now is that, well, all these bad, vicious, evil, terrible, demonic things,

00:49:43.660 they're just being used ironically, or they're just being used kind of in jest or something. Well,

00:49:47.820 the fact is, if you behave ironically for your whole life, then there's no difference

00:49:52.280 between that and behaving sincerely. Really, really terrible story all around, regardless of

00:49:58.500 how exactly this is going to shake out on who was responsible for what. Don't listen to Travis Scott.

00:50:03.920 This is bad stuff. It's going to decay your mind and your soul and your culture. Bad stuff all around, 1.00

00:50:10.360 okay? We need higher things. We need higher things. Pursue the good, avoid the evil. I'm
