The Michael Knowles Show - Ep. 917 - Worse Than 9⧸11 And Pearl Harbor

00:00:00.000 Yesterday, I told you that I was going to do my best to ignore the Democrats' January 6th

00:00:08.580 histrionics and instead focus on the actual feast. It was a little Christmas, the feast of the

00:00:14.380 epiphany. I mostly succeeded at that, but I made a slip up. And now I fear that my face is stuck

00:00:25.200 in a permanent state of cringe. I knew I shouldn't have watched it, but I saw across my computer

00:00:33.920 screen that Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats had invited the cast of Hamilton to their struggle

00:00:41.960 session to sing them a song about how great they all are. We are all stewards of the American

00:00:48.480 experiment, working to pass down to our children and our grandchildren a more perfect union that

00:00:54.020 treats all its citizens with fairness and equity.

00:00:56.740 I'm dedicating every day to you. Domestic life was never quite my style. When you smile,

00:01:08.260 you knock me out, I fall apart. And I thought I was so smart. You will come of age with our

00:01:16.180 young nation. We'll bleed and fight for you. We'll make it right for you. If we lay a strong enough

00:01:25.080 foundation, we'll pass it on to you. We'll give the world to you and you'll blow us all away. Someday,

00:01:35.180 someday, someday. Yeah, you'll blow us all away. Someday, someday.

00:01:48.640 Ah, what Nancy Pelosi and Lin-Manuel Miranda and the rest of the Democrats have done to us

00:01:58.000 is far, far more violent than what any of the alleged insurrectionists did last year

00:02:06.240 on January 6th. I'm Michael Knowles. This is The Michael Knowles Show.

00:02:17.400 Welcome back to the show. My favorite comment yesterday is from VJS, who says,

00:02:21.920 just asking for a friend, but isn't it kind of racist to not give BLM an anniversary for any of

00:02:28.740 their riots? Such a good point. White supremacy wins again, except it's a little complicated because 0.99

00:02:36.080 some of the alleged white supremacist insurrectionists were not white at all. There

00:02:40.200 were plenty of black people and Hispanic people at the Capitol. And a lot of the BLM rioters were

00:02:45.900 extremely pasty Antifa people. So it doesn't really break down quite on perfectly on

00:02:51.840 racial lines. But yes, I agree. I think that's a great example of white supremacy. And that's not

00:02:56.780 good for our future. When you want to plan for your future, I would strongly recommend you check

00:03:01.200 out Alto IRA. Do you have an account with Coinbase? Are you thinking of opening one? Are you crypto

00:03:06.800 curious? I am. I hadn't really been that interested in crypto. And then recently, I've just completely

00:03:12.700 gotten into it with the NFTs and the Ethereum and the meme coins and all this stuff. Well,

00:03:19.560 crypto may very well represent the future of money. It's certainly a very important new technology.

00:03:26.140 And so everyone's really getting involved and they're investing in it and trading it. And like

00:03:29.760 so many things in life, there's a smart way to do it and a dumb way to do it. The really smart way to

00:03:34.020 do it is to go check out Alto IRA so that you can invest in Bitcoin, Ethereum, Cardano in a tax

00:03:41.020 advantaged IRA. Super easy to set up. You can invest with as little as 10 bucks, no setup charges. This is

00:04:15.920 today. Altoira.com slash Michael. I said yesterday that I was going to ignore the Democrats'

00:04:22.300 histrionics and I did. I really, I didn't watch Joe Biden's stupid speech. I assume it's stupid. I 1.00

00:04:27.280 was told it was a very stupid speech. I didn't watch it. I didn't watch MSNBC and CNN and all of the 1.00

00:04:32.540 histrionics. Instead, I enjoyed the Feast of the Epiphany and it was, it was lovely. The reason that I

00:04:38.420 didn't pay attention to the Dems' histrionics is because the Capitol riot, such as it was,

00:04:46.300 is not a significant event in itself. It's not. It didn't, it's not even the most significant

00:04:53.500 insurrection of the year leading up to it. That would have been BLM and Antifa, killing dozens

00:04:59.720 of people, attacking federal buildings, looting, rioting, burning down and pillaging different cities.

00:05:05.180 However, the reason I mention Lin-Manuel Miranda and Nancy Pelosi and all the rest of them is

00:05:13.560 because January 6th could be an extremely historically important event as a myth.

00:05:24.420 Not in what happened. What happened at the Capitol really doesn't matter at all.

00:05:28.920 There was one person killed in the violence of that day and it was one of the alleged

00:05:35.100 insurrectionists being killed by a trigger-happy cop. So what the rioters did, that doesn't really

00:05:40.920 matter. But the mythology that is coming out of this, that really could matter. The myth is why

00:05:47.060 Nancy Pelosi hired Broadway performers to come down and dramatize the whole incident. If the event

00:05:52.820 itself were sufficiently dramatic to, to warrant some place of significance in American history,

00:05:59.420 then you would just have a report from the January 6th committee and you would just have them recount

00:06:03.300 the events and you would talk about all the police officers who were killed and all of the, the

00:06:07.880 government that was overturned and you would talk about it, except none of that happened. So they

00:06:12.540 can't talk about it. So they have to invite actual actors to come down and, and dramatize the

00:06:17.640 event and sing a song explicitly about how great Nancy Pelosi and the rest of the Democrats are.

00:06:23.700 That's the whole song. And you'll blow us all away. You're going to shape our country.

00:06:27.960 Lin-Manuel Miranda says it at the beginning. He says, you're doing, you're standing up and we need

00:06:31.280 to stand with you and you're so great and you're so wonderful. And then you have all these geriatric,

00:06:35.860 mostly geriatric Democrats who say, yes, we are good. Our legacy is good. And they're smart and

00:06:41.380 they're smart and they're doing a really, really good job of this because myth matters in politics.

00:06:48.880 Myth matters in politics and statecraft often more than history does. The myth is much more

00:06:56.180 important. Kamala Harris came out. She compared the Capitol riot last year to not just Pearl Harbor,

00:07:06.480 but September 11th as well. Good morning. Certain dates echo throughout history,

00:07:15.200 including dates that instantly remind all who have lived through them, where they were and what they

00:07:23.420 were doing when our democracy came under assault. Dates that occupy not only a place on our calendars,

00:07:33.520 but a place in our collective memory. December 7th, 1941, September 11th, 2001, and January 6th, 2021.

00:07:49.260 On that day, I was not only vice president elect, I was also a United States Senator.

00:07:56.040 This comparison is deeply offensive. You know, some of us knew people who died on September 11th.

00:08:04.280 Okay. It wasn't that long ago. A lot of people remember it, especially people around New York,

00:08:08.360 especially those who were millennials or older might remember this. To compare 3,000 Americans

00:08:13.640 being killed in a terrorist attack to the horn guy dancing around the Capitol rotunda is really

00:08:18.920 disgusting and is genuinely extremely offensive, but it's got a point. It's got a political point. 0.88

00:08:24.620 January 6th is a myth. It is completely made up. If not completely made up, it's 99% made up. It's

00:08:34.920 based on an actual riot that took place at the Capitol, but virtually everything you've been told about

00:08:40.040 it is a lie and has been turned, proven to be a lie. And even some newspapers had to retract it,

00:08:45.420 though no one was paying any attention to the retraction, so the lies persist. All countries have

00:08:50.740 myths. How was Rome founded? Rome, you know Rome. The Roman Republic becomes the Roman Empire. How

00:08:56.800 was it founded? There are two stories about how Rome was founded. One is that it was founded by Aeneas,

00:09:05.280 right? Like the Aeneid, like the poem by Virgil. It was founded after the Trojan War. And the other is

00:09:12.380 Romulus and Remus. And these are related myths, but it was founded by Romulus and Remus,

00:09:16.140 these two boys who were fed and raised by a she-wolf. And then they form this civilization 0.98

00:09:22.740 and Romulus kills Remus. I'm simplifying a little bit. But those are the stories. Did that happen in

00:09:27.260 real life? I don't know. Probably not. But that's the myth. And the myth is the identity of Rome.

00:09:33.780 It's much more important than whatever council met and wrote some document together and took the many,

00:09:40.000 many steps that very slowly created what became Rome. No, Romulus and Remus,

00:09:45.120 that matters a whole lot more. Even modern countries like our own country have national

00:09:51.780 myths. And some are true and some are not true. George Washington, what's his relationship to a

00:09:57.860 cherry tree? Every schoolboy knows this, or at least used to know this when we taught the American

00:10:01.700 myths, that George Washington chopped down a cherry tree, but he could not tell a lie. So he admitted

00:10:05.860 that he chopped down the cherry tree. Did this happen? No, but it's part of the myth of America.

00:10:10.380 America. And it forms a lot of our identity. And it forms our understanding of our past and our

00:10:15.300 forebears and who we are ourselves. January 6th, with all the scare music and all the hyperventilating

00:10:23.040 and all the pearl clutching, that is now part of the American myth. The Democrats are desperate to

00:10:29.460 establish that one. And so they're going to have festivals every year. And they're going to have big

00:10:33.080 speeches. And they're going to have big solemn celebrations. They're probably going to erect a

00:10:37.780 statue. They're going to have Broadway performers do songs and dances to it. Lies shape history

00:10:44.100 just as much as the truth very often. There's a UCLA professor named Kara Cooney. She's an

00:10:51.460 Egyptologist and a social historian who focuses on gender theory and gender studies. So, you know,

00:11:00.560 she's going to be a real treat. This UCLA professor just published a book about Egypt that for whatever

00:11:08.360 reason wrote or included a passage about Kyle Rittenhouse. Kyle Rittenhouse, the kid who was

00:11:16.420 getting chased by the Antifa guys in Kenosha, Wisconsin and shot them. And what she says about

00:11:21.300 Kyle Rittenhouse is that Kyle Rittenhouse, you quote, used his semi-automatic weapon to kill two black 0.92

00:11:27.920 men in Kenosha, Wisconsin while waging a glorious race war on behalf of his inherited white power. 0.75

00:11:34.500 It's in a book about Egypt. And it's just not true. The people that Kyle Rittenhouse killed were

00:11:40.440 not black. They were white guys. They were extremely pasty white guys. And Kyle Rittenhouse was not waging 0.96

00:11:46.600 a race war and there's no evidence of that whatsoever. It's completely made up. But if you went and asked

00:11:51.740 people on the street right now, hey, what happened in Kenosha, Wisconsin? I bet if they'd heard of it at all,

00:11:57.280 I bet you 99 out of 100 would say, oh, some white supremacist kid killed some black people. 0.99

00:12:01.840 That's what you would hear. And in part, that's because these myths are being pushed by very 0.98

00:12:08.760 influential people, by our educators, even educators at very prestigious universities.

00:12:15.220 Now, when you want to help save the country, not just the cultural aspects of the country,

00:12:20.680 but the financial aspects, your own dollar, you know, charity starts at home. What do you got to

00:12:26.840 check out? You got to check out GetUpside. If you are not currently using GetUpside, you are a dummy.

00:13:37.640 book on Egypt and it completely lied about Kyle Rittenhouse. Why she was talking about Kyle

00:13:42.740 Rittenhouse, no one knows. But she said that Kyle Rittenhouse killed these black people and he was 0.93

00:13:48.020 raging a race war on behalf of white power. She got called out on this. Someone found the book 0.91

00:13:55.240 somehow. I assume it's just because she assigned it to her students. No one reads these obscure academic

00:13:59.440 books that the professors publish just to maintain their own jobs. But someone found it. And so she

00:14:04.640 tweets out, quote, on page 341 of The Good Kings, I state that Kyle Rittenhouse shot two black men

00:14:09.020 when instead he shot two white men. That was my mistake and I apologize. The response has been a

00:14:13.520 hateful stew of ridicule and denial that America has a race problem at all. If one mistake in a

00:14:19.380 little known book about ancient Egypt elicits this much howling, it is to avoid discussing our larger

00:14:24.300 problem, to avoid seeing our deep-seated obsession with patriarchal power. First thing I noticed here

00:14:32.120 is this woman who is a professor at a prestigious university who is apparently such a sloppy 1.00

00:14:38.820 historian that she doesn't check basic facts of events that she's writing about. Events that have

00:14:44.300 nothing to do with the ostensible subject of her book. I noticed that she doesn't know how to spell

00:14:48.460 deep-seated. It's deep-seated, like you're sitting down in a chair, like seated. But she wrote seated,

00:14:54.120 like Johnny Appleseed, like you're going out into your garden. Which is, I guess it's a minor point,

00:14:58.500 but it reveals a greater problem, which is that our academics, the people who are teaching our kids

00:15:05.700 today, even at expensive fancy schools, are not particularly bright or well-educated. That's a

00:15:13.060 side point. Though it does speak to the bigger problem here. She gets caught. She published this

00:15:19.120 total lie. She gets called out on it. She smears this young man. She gets called out on it and she

00:15:24.920 says, look, yeah, okay, that part was false, but it gets to a greater truth. Yes, no, it's true.

00:15:31.500 There wasn't a white supremacist kid shooting black guys to wage a race war in Kenosha, but it gets to 0.93

00:15:36.120 the greater truth of our awful white supremacist country and the race war that's being waged. 0.94

00:15:42.540 No, it doesn't. It's just a lie. It's a lie. You peddled a narrative and it was false and you got

00:15:48.800 called out on it and you don't want to admit that you were wrong. Lies do not get to greater truths.

00:15:55.100 The libs do this every time you call them on their BS. They say, well, okay, so that, yeah,

00:16:00.420 that turned out not to be true, but it gets to a greater truth. No, it doesn't. It's just lies.

00:16:03.940 And there are a lot more lies even than you get called out on. Does anyone really believe right now

00:16:09.980 in the year of our Lord, 2022 in the United States, that America has a pervasive problem of white 0.98

00:16:17.240 supremacy, that, that the prevailing culture is one in which it is encouraged to insult and attack

00:16:26.220 black people and, and to exalt white people. Is that really the racial culture we're living in

00:16:34.060 right now? Last time I checked, white people are the only group that you're allowed to legally 1.00

00:16:39.260 discriminate against. That's not true. There's the exception of Asians. You're also allowed to

00:16:42.940 discriminate against Asians in certain instances, but mostly it's white people. You can 0.92

00:16:47.200 discriminate against them in college admissions. You can discriminate against them in employment

00:16:52.720 beyond the law. If you just look at the, you can discriminate against them in certain grants and

00:16:58.000 certain, certain funding. But beyond that, even just in terms of the culture, the only group,

00:17:03.580 the only racial group that you're allowed to and encouraged to insult or is white people. 0.98

00:17:09.680 And it's commonplace to insult white people and talk about how awful white people are and how 0.99

00:17:13.360 they've caused all sorts of problems. If you ever insulted black people or Hispanic people or even 0.99

00:17:18.380 Asian people who are in this strange category where they can be legally discriminated against,

00:17:23.160 but if you insulted them in the culture, you would be ostracized. You would be booted out of polite

00:17:28.360 society. You would be, you would be censored. And a lot of people are. So it's just not true. The,

00:17:33.100 the greater truth that she's talking about is just a complete lie, as are the things that she's

00:17:37.780 stating. When we're talking about racial politics, one of the clearest examples of this today

00:17:42.520 in public life is Joy Reid. Joy Reid on MSNBC. Joy Reid was discussing the January 6th myth and she,

00:17:51.140 like everyone else in the liberal establishment, was trying to firmly establish this as part of the

00:17:55.180 American mythology. And she said that, that Joe Biden is going to address January 6th and he is

00:18:01.840 getting a ton of hate from Republicans. And she's so shocked by this because it seems that Joe Biden's

00:18:06.940 getting just about as much hate as Barack Obama. So tomorrow, president Biden is going to speak.

00:18:12.220 And there's a question of whether or not he actually can change this or he can, he can alter it at all

00:18:18.760 because unbelievably he has become for Republicans as much of a sort of figure of hatred and hate

00:18:26.660 object as president Obama was, you know, the black president, like, I mean, he was his vice president. 0.66

00:18:31.620 Maybe that's part of it. I don't know what it is, but this is like the most sort of norm core Democrat ever.

00:18:36.940 It's so strange. It doesn't make any sense. Joe Biden's getting as much hate as Barack Obama,

00:18:41.880 but those Republicans only hated Obama because he's black. And yet they hate Joe Biden just as much. 0.82

00:18:48.140 I guess it's got to be because Joe Biden's kind of black. That's, that's her conclusion. Effectively, 0.95

00:18:54.460 I'm only slightly exaggerating. She's saying that Republicans, it doesn't make any sense

00:19:02.220 that Republicans would be just as hard on this Democrat president as they were on the last Democrat

00:19:07.040 president because her premise is that they only hated the last Democrat president, not because of his

00:19:11.660 political views or all the terrible things he did, but because of the color of his skin. So the only way 0.97

00:19:16.040 to resolve this tension, there are two ways. She could either recognize that Republicans did not

00:19:22.600 hate Obama because he was black. They didn't like Barack Obama because he was a jerk and a terrible 1.00

00:19:26.620 president did all sorts of horrible things. Or she could conclude that Joe Biden is somehow kind of 1.00

00:19:32.860 black or is associated. Joe Biden is a very white guy is somehow kind of sort of black. When reality 0.82

00:19:40.460 runs contrary to the racial narrative, her answer is to change reality. That Joe Biden is a black guy. 0.95

00:19:48.800 And not to put too fine a point on it, but it's not just that Republicans don't like Biden as much as

00:19:54.980 they didn't like Obama. They seem to like him considerably less than they liked Obama. There's

00:20:01.160 a new poll out, it's from Civics, a job approval poll shows that Biden's job approval rating, which was

00:20:07.380 already extremely low, is at 38 or 37%. It's now dropped down to 35%. This is just after Biden received a

00:20:14.140 record high disapproval rating of 56%. Really, really bad stuff. Biden's net approval rating right now is

00:20:24.940 negative 20. Really bad news for Biden, especially heading into the midterms and then looking ahead

00:20:30.600 to 2024. This is why you are getting all the January 6th stuff. I guarantee you, if Joe Biden were

00:20:41.160 popular right now, if the Democrats had anything that they could run on, anything, they don't have

00:20:45.600 a single thing. They're below water on every single issue. If they had anything they could run on,

00:20:50.100 you'd probably get some histrionics about January 6th, but you wouldn't get nearly as much.

00:20:54.460 They wouldn't be so desperate to enshrine that in the national mythology. But because they got nothing,

00:21:00.760 they need to use January 6th. And it's one for this cultural reason of establishing Republicans as

00:21:06.200 terrorists in people's minds. But it's also for a very practical reason. They're pushing for a

00:21:09.800 federal takeover of elections. Republicans are calling this bill that they're pushing the Corrupt

00:21:14.380 Politicians Act. It was the first bill that they took up in the new House of Representatives and

00:21:20.640 in the Senate when the Democrats took control. Because they know that if while they now have

00:21:25.540 unified government and they control the whole thing, if they can take power to govern elections

00:21:29.780 away from the states, away from local governments, give it to themselves, take away all of the safeguards

00:21:35.740 that prevented them from, or impeded them from stealing elections, and enshrine their new rules,

00:21:43.160 no voter ID, widespread unsolicited mail-ins, election day turns into election month, all that

00:21:48.780 kind of stuff. If they can enshrine that, then they believe that they're going to give themselves a

00:21:52.060 permanent electoral majority. So it all ties in together. There's the really abstract stuff about

00:21:56.880 the national mythos, but there's also the really practical stuff. They want to pass this law.

00:22:01.240 Why do they want to do it? Because according to the Democrats, according to Pete Buttigieg,

00:22:07.160 everyone's favorite transportation secretary, democracy is sacred. Democracy is sacred. That's

00:22:14.200 what he tweeted out on January 6th. Democracy. In his super duper glib, Pete Buttigieg, Harvard educated,

00:22:22.800 worked at McKinsey, just the most glad-handing, shallow individual you've ever met. In that tone,

00:22:28.360 you can hear it. Democracy is sacred. Democracy is not sacred. Democracy is not sacred. And Pete

00:22:38.780 Buttigieg and the Democrats are some of the least likely people to believe democracy is sacred.

00:22:45.180 That's why they're upending so many of the safeguards to protect our democracy on the election

00:22:49.700 integrity laws. And also in terms of how laws are passed and how our government works. They're trying

00:22:54.620 to take a lot of power away from the people and away from the states and give it to unelected

00:22:59.340 bureaucrats. If they could crown Dr. Fauci as the emperor of the country indefinitely, right now they

00:23:06.000 would do it. They effectively have done that. So I don't want to hear anything about democracy from

00:23:10.440 these people. They don't like it very much. The conservatives are far greater defenders of

00:23:14.660 democracy. And furthermore, democracy is not in itself sacred. Democracy is a nice form of government.

00:23:21.280 government. We like democracy. But there are other forms of government that can be good too.

00:23:28.460 This is what is described by the ancients as the cycle of regimes. There are, according to this

00:23:35.180 theory, three good forms of government and three bad forms of government. And they relate to one

00:23:38.940 another. Democracy can be great. But democracy can be really bad too. We call that mob rule. The

00:23:44.540 founding fathers were very afraid of it. Aristocracy can be great. There have been good aristocracies

00:23:49.360 in the history of our civilization. But aristocracy can be really bad. That's when it becomes oligarchy.

00:23:55.160 That's increasingly what our own government looks like. Monarchies can be great. There have been

00:23:59.860 great monarchies in the history of the West. Some of the greatest governments in the history of the

00:24:04.460 West have been monarchies. The kingdom of God is not a democracy. It's a monarchy. But there can be a

00:24:11.600 bad version of monarchies, which is tyranny. That's when you have some tin pot dictator. There are good

00:24:17.160 versions and bad versions. And what the libs are trying to convince us all of now is that we're

00:24:21.960 living under some shining, perfect democracy. And they're going to take us even further in that

00:24:27.100 direction. They're not. We are living practically under an oligarchy. And they are taking us much

00:24:32.640 further in that direction. And they're trying to pass laws at this very second that are going to make

00:24:36.820 our government more oligarchical, more easily controlled by a small group of people who are in

00:24:41.700 government, who are in private business, who are working in the media. And they're all working in

00:24:45.160 cahoots with one another to keep the people down. It's as simple as that. Just when you think

00:24:50.500 that the Democrats in office, actual mainstream Democrats, cannot get more transparently 0.98

00:24:59.780 hypocritical, they do something like this. In the liturgical season of January 6th, where they're 0.90

00:25:06.320 trying to convince us that Republicans are traitors and insurrectionists, and they're trying to overturn our 0.92

00:25:12.200 government, and they're evil people who need to be ostracized from society, and they hate their 0.98

00:25:16.320 fellow man. A Democrat city council member in Portland, Maine, has just been found selling a

00:25:22.880 sticker at one of his businesses that says, abort Republicans. Abort. He's selling other stickers,

00:25:28.600 too. He's selling a sticker that says, defund God, lowercase g, too. Thank you for making me a

00:25:35.580 godless hoe. And are we sluts? This is at his coffee shop. This was reported first by the postmillennial. 0.99

00:25:47.160 Shows you where the real power is. It goes without saying, if a Republican did anything like this,

00:25:51.960 if we had stickers that we were selling saying, kill Democrats, we would be arrested, we'd be thrown 0.58

00:25:56.040 in Guantanamo Bay, we'd probably be in the solitary confinement cell right next to the horn guy, 0.60

00:26:02.220 and right next to the dad who was popping a Coors Light in the Capitol Rotunda during that most

00:26:08.420 world-historic day in the history of our nation. Shows you where the real power is. The power is

00:26:14.220 almost entirely with Democrats, Democrats working in cahoots with the liberal establishment, the media,

00:26:19.320 the universities, the woke corporations, the big technology. They control basically everything.

00:26:25.640 And what they will do is project. And the things that they are doing themselves, they will accuse

00:26:31.440 us of doing. They do this on racial matters. They do this on sexual matters. They do this on matters

00:26:37.420 of politics and government. Where does the power really lie? Where are the real threats to democracy?

00:26:42.460 Speaking of excuses, got to get to this. Eric Swalwell, our favorite. The man who is nearly

00:26:49.440 president, Congressman Eric Swalwell, who is best known for having a bodily function on television

00:27:00.000 news and for sleeping with a Chinese spy. Eric Swalwell has been really tough on conservatives

00:27:05.780 for not following the public health orders and listening to Dr. Fauci and going along with the

00:27:12.940 COVID mania. He tweeted out, quote, as we end 2021, this was just a week or so ago, as we end 2021,

00:27:18.720 mired in a deadly pandemic, you should know who has prolonged it. These guys, Republican liars, 0.92

00:27:24.100 your vacation canceled, your kids back to virtual learning and back to masks everywhere for blame. 0.98

00:27:29.080 Look no further than these guys talking about Republicans. And then what happens? What happens?

00:27:33.860 We catch Eric Swalwell without a mask on. He was down in Florida. He was not wearing a mask.

00:27:43.360 We've done this a billion times. We've caught all of these Democrats, Fauci himself,

00:27:48.960 Maxine Waters, Pelosi, Warren, the mayor of San Francisco, AOC. We've caught all these people

00:27:54.140 not wearing masks when they're telling all the rest of us to wear masks. And so a photographer

00:27:58.700 got a picture of it, published it, and Swalwell responds. And he doesn't say, I'm sorry. Oh,

00:28:03.340 you know, actually, I didn't mean to. It was a one moment. No, he, he tweets out, quote,

00:28:09.340 they got me. Maskless, juggling a baby and a coffee while meeting with a Congolese queen.

00:28:15.920 Pulitzer, please. He's making fun of the journalists. He's saying they deserve a Pulitzer.

00:28:20.280 I can't tell by the phrase Congolese queen, if he means that he's meeting actually with a Congolese

00:28:26.660 queen, or if he's just using it in the modern sense of the word, like this is just a Congolese

00:28:30.760 woman and he's sort of, yes, queen. I don't know. I don't know which one would be funnier.

00:28:34.960 Either way, Swalwell got caught in the hypocrisy. And he's unrepentant. He's shameless about it.

00:28:45.000 He's not, he doesn't even practice the hypocrisy, which is what the tribute that vice pays to virtue. 0.52

00:28:52.440 He's not even saying, oh, no, actually, you're misunderstanding. You don't get it.

00:28:56.180 No, he's saying, no, there's one set of rules for me. There's one set of rules for you. Look,

00:28:59.020 I had good intentions. And so we're going to judge me and we're going to judge my friends,

00:29:03.300 the Democrats by our intentions. And we're going to judge you Republicans by your actions and the

00:29:08.780 worst way that I could possibly depict your actions. It's whatever Swalwell or Pelosi or Biden or Kamala

00:29:18.000 or Fauci or any of the rest of them, whatever they want to do is fine as long as they've got a good

00:29:22.300 reason, as long as they have a good excuse. And whatever you want to do is not fine because you

00:29:29.980 have to submit to their whim. Speaking of different standards, there's a story out of

00:29:34.560 Yale, Yale University. I am really sorry to say at the forefront of wokeness and the destruction of 0.63

00:29:44.560 the American university and other elite institutions. Yale has now announced that students can return

00:29:50.960 to campus anytime between January 14th and February 4th, but they must quarantine in their residences

00:29:57.060 except to pick up food and to take COVID tests constantly. And maybe to take academic tests? No,

00:30:03.600 I assume that's online too. Until they receive the results of an arrival test. Yale has instituted

00:30:10.440 this campus-wide quarantine until February 7th. And the students may not visit New Haven businesses or

00:30:16.600 eat at local restaurants, even outdoors. They can maybe go for curbside pickup, but they can't

00:30:23.060 really participate at all in the community. They've got to lock up in their dorm rooms.

00:30:27.060 What this is about is not just idiocy, is not just an overreaction, is not just an unscientific 0.99

00:30:34.520 policy. It's about a consolidation of power. I have a personal connection to this story because I 0.99

00:30:40.660 once quarantined at Yale. When I was an undergraduate, I had the swine flu. That was the big problem that

00:30:47.340 was going around the country then. And so I got, I think it was the swine flu, whatever the big flu was

00:30:52.080 that year. I got it. They made me quarantine. What did that mean? It meant I was supposed to stay in

00:30:57.880 my room. But that's not what kids do at college. You know what kids do at college? They do a lot of

00:31:04.020 bad things they shouldn't be doing. Okay. And especially at that campus, by the way.

00:31:09.140 What do you think is going to happen? You get kids who have COVID and they're going to go into their

00:31:12.940 college dorms, their co-ed college dorms, on one of the booziest campuses in the entire country.

00:31:20.020 And they're, what are they, they're just going to sit quietly in their rooms?

00:31:23.680 You think that's what's going to, no, I think they're going to spread COVID and maybe a few

00:31:27.860 other illnesses as well. Okay. So what's the point of this? The point is the separation.

00:31:36.640 The point is that these elite Yale students, they can't go and pick up the nasty germs at the

00:31:43.200 local New Haven shops. They might meet some townsfolk. Could you imagine? Get their filthy,

00:31:47.960 disgusting peasant germs on them. That wouldn't be good. No, we've all got to stay separate and 1.00

00:31:52.880 we're going to stay in our corner. You're going to stay in your corner and we're all just going to

00:31:55.240 order Amazon and we're all just going to live in the metaverse and we're all just going to keep to

00:31:59.540 ourselves and live in our own little chambers. And what we once considered civil society, what we

00:32:07.060 once considered to be our real politics, which is you go out and you see people and you engage in

00:32:10.800 the community, that's going away. And one of the reasons that's going away, I know this sounds crazy

00:32:15.780 and kooky and conspiratorial, but if you don't think that there is a major political power grab

00:32:20.740 going on after the last two years, I don't know how to help you. What is happening here is that

00:32:25.520 the few remaining impediments to a consolidation of the power of the liberal establishment are being

00:32:32.620 demolished. And that is small businesses and that is local communities and that is families. These

00:32:39.080 things are being demolished and you can quantify it. It's happening in real time and it's no coincidence

00:32:45.220 that the elite institutions are at the head of it.

00:34:10.520 Welcome back to the mailbag. So good. So good to be with all of you. My favorite time of the week.

00:34:17.160 First question up from Sarah. Hey, short question today. What do you think will happen to the horn

00:34:20.920 guy and other people who the left wants to burn at the January 6th stake? I think they're going to

00:34:25.960 have the book thrown at them. That's already happening. Some have been held in solitary confinement.

00:34:30.240 Some have been held in really terrible conditions. And if I were president right now,

00:34:35.220 if I were in any position of power to help these people, I would. I would consider pardoning them

00:34:43.580 outright. I would commute a lot of their sentences. And if I were in some position to deal with the

00:34:50.840 details of the prosecution, I would seriously diminish the charges against them. Obviously,

00:34:56.980 it would be on a case-by-case basis. You'd have to see what people were doing. But I would dramatically

00:35:01.140 reduce the charges against them. Why would I do that? Is it because I'm soft on crime now?

00:35:06.680 Is it because I merely want to reward my friends and punish my enemies? No. It's because what

00:35:11.240 happened to them is deeply unfair. The BLM terrorists who actually killed people, the BLM terrorists who

00:35:18.940 burned the country down for eight months and attacked federal buildings, an assault on our democracy,

00:35:25.000 and who looted and robbed and pillaged and burned, those guys largely got off the hook.

00:35:30.900 When you look specifically at the Bronx and Manhattan, the vast majority of them just had

00:35:36.940 their cases dismissed or pled down basically to nothing. And so we cannot live in a country where

00:35:43.040 the left gets off the hook for very egregious violence and the right has the book thrown at

00:35:49.760 them and they rot in a jail cell for relatively minor infractions. We can't live in that country.

00:35:55.540 Now, you might say, well, it would be better if both of them were punished a lot. Okay,

00:35:59.420 yeah, maybe it would. Okay, maybe, I guess. I don't know. What I do know is that the left has

00:36:04.220 already been let off the hook. And so as a matter of justice, not just as a matter of good politics,

00:36:09.060 but as a matter of justice, I would let the horn guy out of his cell if he's still there. I don't

00:36:14.680 know that he's still there. But I would dramatically reduce the charges against the alleged insurrectionists

00:36:21.780 when I wouldn't just let them off the hook entirely. And then the left can learn their

00:36:27.580 lesson. And then maybe the left will stop going so light on the crime when their own guy is committed.

00:36:32.420 And then maybe we can return to some normal semblance of government. But we're not going

00:36:37.780 to get back to good government by letting the left get away with murder, literally murder in some cases,

00:36:42.940 and throwing the book at the conservatives. From Quentin. Hey, Michael, I have a question.

00:36:46.240 This might be dumb. What is the Christian view on anime girl pillows? 0.92

00:36:52.620 Huh? Hypothetically speaking, if one were to use it as a sleep aid, like for sleep,

00:36:59.120 would that be wrong? On one hand, it's a pillow, so it should not be a problem. On the other hand,

00:37:04.140 there is an anime girl on it, so it might be considered wrong. Keep in mind, this is only

00:37:08.120 hypothetical. I'm going to do something. I usually don't have a computer in front of me,

00:37:12.980 but we were snowed home over the past few days, so I usually keep note cards. I don't like having

00:37:17.520 screens in front of me during the show, but I do have a computer, which means, and I'm going to

00:37:21.500 put on my, like, my ExpressVPN right now. I can't, I don't want to have this typed into my Google

00:37:26.340 history. Anime girl pillow. What is an anime? Okay, well, that makes sense. It's just a pillow of an

00:37:37.220 anime girl, but they're long. It's like a full body pillow. Okay, well, if, if you have this pillow,

00:37:46.420 Quentin, because you just really like the artwork, and you just really appreciate the art and the

00:37:52.640 beauty of the anime girl pillow, I guess that's fine. A little weird, but fine. If you have this

00:38:01.840 full lady-sized cartoon lady pillow that you hold in your sleep for some less wholesome reason,

00:38:11.940 that would not be fine. That would be probably a near occasion of sin, and appeal to the prurient

00:38:19.700 interest, and throw out the pillow, buddy. Don't, that's, don't have the pillow. That's,

00:38:24.980 I've, okay, I'm, I'm not going to be, I've changed my mind. Just, no, just no, no pillows. None of that.

00:38:29.720 Sarah, dear Michael, how do you find happiness? Oh, just that little question. Happiness is not a

00:38:35.620 guarantee in this life, but I believe that you can always find it, regardless of the circumstances in

00:38:40.400 your life. What advice do you have to find happiness when you're, you're feeling anything but? I actually

00:38:45.100 do have a direct answer to this, which is, and the, the ancients who we keep invoking, those ancient

00:38:51.420 Greeks have an answer to, which is that we want to order our life toward happiness, toward true

00:38:56.620 happiness, toward the life well-lived, which is not merely subjective and about our own personal

00:39:01.660 preferences and tastes, but is an objective standard. There are good things that you can do.

00:39:05.860 There is such a thing as virtue, for instance, and excellence, and the way we attain that is by

00:39:12.280 practicing the virtues, which is not merely moral. It's not just do good things and, and, and avoid

00:39:17.160 committing sins, but it, it has other aspects to it. It means excellence more broadly.

00:39:22.720 So, it would be working out, something that I don't do very much, but that would, that would be

00:39:27.760 one way to be happier, is if you, if you treat your body well, and you eat healthy foods, and you do

00:39:31.900 good things. It would be to attain wisdom. That will make you happier. It will be to cultivate your

00:39:37.560 courage. That would be something that would make you happier. And it would be to practice the virtues

00:39:41.260 and do good and avoid evil. That will make you happier. Now, bad things will still happen to you,

00:39:45.180 which is why the pure cultivation of virtue is not going to be sufficient in the end. It's why you

00:39:52.620 need to know your God, because any understanding of what is good that is divorced from God is not

00:39:59.680 going to make a lot of sense, and it's not going to be satisfying. So, it's very helpful to know that

00:40:05.380 even as you're cultivating the virtues and doing your best and doing the best you can, it's helpful

00:40:08.700 to know, for instance, that the rain falls on the just and the unjust alike. Some religions don't

00:40:14.300 recognize that. Christianity does recognize that. You can be doing great things, and bad things can

00:40:19.660 happen to you. And it's not necessarily God punishing you. Actually, it can be good for you.

00:40:23.800 It can be edifying. It can be sanctifying. And you have to recognize that you're not made

00:40:27.520 merely for this world, that you are going to die. At a certain point, no matter how well you cultivate

00:40:32.200 the virtues, you're going to die. And so, you're going to have a sad end in that regard. That is the

00:40:36.940 consequence of sin and death pervading the world. But there is redemption. There is salvation.

00:40:42.400 One great way to be happy is to recognize the fact that your Redeemer lives. And so, you can't 0.71

00:40:49.300 avoid it. I know that there are lots of people who are not very religious who listen to this show.

00:40:54.140 And I appreciate your patience with me, because I bring up religion a fair bit. But the reason I do it

00:40:58.360 is you can't avoid religion. You're not going to be able to think about politics or culture or just

00:41:07.720 your own personal life without coming to religious questions. Because you come into this world, you

00:41:12.920 don't really know how you got here. You know that there's no way to live forever on this earth.

00:41:18.500 And no one here gets out alive. We're so befuddled by our hopes and our joys and our loves and all of

00:41:22.820 these, and sin and pain. And what does this all mean? And so, you're going to have to get to some

00:41:27.380 religious answers. And that will give you a much better shot at happiness, at true happiness.

00:41:33.180 From Kemp, can you explain, Michael, why you can't just legislate morality? Why that is not a valid

00:41:40.760 argument? I can. Although, I think the burden really should be on you. Because you're the one

00:41:49.220 making the claim, or not you specifically, but that this is what we're responding to, the claim that

00:41:53.860 you can't legislate morality. So then, I think my question is, why not? You're the one making this

00:41:59.180 extraordinary claim. So why is it that you can't? I think you can. Why can't you? Well, because people

00:42:06.300 are, that's going to happen at the family level. And that's just from the culture. And the government

00:42:10.480 has no say over it. You can't legislate morality. So in response to that, I guess what I would say is

00:42:15.000 that I guess we better get rid of murder laws, right? We have to. Because you can't, that's a,

00:42:21.680 if murder is not a moral issue, then what possibly could be? And you can't, you just said you can't

00:42:27.260 legislate morality. Murders are going to murder, all right? Murderers just need to learn in their

00:42:30.520 home not to murder. And they need to be taught by the culture not to murder. And so you can't have

00:42:35.260 laws against it. So we'll get rid of the murder laws, right? No, I don't think so. What about

00:42:41.140 laws against tax evasion? That's a moral issue too. Different than murder, but you can't legislate.

00:42:47.920 If someone wants to evade their taxes, they're just, they're going to do it, you know? And you can't,

00:42:51.360 the law cannot be an instructor, can it? Of course it can. The idea that you can't legislate

00:42:57.220 morality is just modern day libertarian nonsense that no one in their right mind believed until

00:43:04.800 about five minutes ago. And you shouldn't believe it either. It's just a way for politicians to avoid

00:43:11.880 the hard work of crafting laws. And it's a way to flatter the people and to allow them to participate

00:43:18.700 in their most base desires and appetites and say, oh, well, you can't legislate morality. So go do

00:43:24.320 whatever creepy, weird thing you want to do and go do a bunch of drugs and go, that's fine. It's

00:43:28.020 just a way of evading responsibility. But of course the law is a teacher. Of course it is. You see this

00:43:33.020 in the Bible. You see this in all serious political philosophy. You see this throughout the history of

00:43:37.760 the United States. Of course, when you want less of something, you pass a law against it. If it were

00:43:45.460 really the case that passing laws against bad things has no effect on how often they're committed or

00:43:53.420 maybe even has an inverse effect, maybe you pass a law against it and it encourages the crime to be

00:43:57.720 committed, then we would get rid of all of our laws. Then you wouldn't have laws against murder or tax

00:44:01.800 evasion or anything because, well, no, that would be bad and it won't have any effect anyway and it might

00:44:07.000 even have a bad effect. No, it's not. Pass laws against something, you get less of it generally.

00:44:11.500 This is true, by the way, of the war on drugs as well. Often you'll hear the war on drugs was a

00:44:15.880 failure. No, it wasn't. The war on drugs was super duper successful and drastically reduced the number

00:44:20.260 of people doing illegal drugs from the 1970s to the 1990s. So that worked too. And then we abandoned it

00:44:26.100 and then the drug use went back up and we should probably pass tougher drug laws too. That would be

00:44:30.880 a rant in response to your question. I suppose I could put it in a pithier and more basic way,

00:44:37.420 but that line, it just drives me so crazy. You can't legislate morality. The only one that rivals

00:44:42.480 that line in terms of getting my blood up is that you, you can't teach, you shouldn't teach students

00:44:48.700 what to think, only how to think. As though you could teach a student how to think about mathematics

00:44:55.460 without teaching them that two plus two equals four. It's not possible, my friend. From Kyle.

00:44:59.920 Michael, you've mentioned you have family in liberal New York. Yes, most of my family.

00:45:04.120 So maybe you can help me. I'm in a group text thread with my wife and her sibling.

00:45:08.660 They all work in the medical field. Some of the sisters have been voicing frustration with the

00:45:11.840 COVID mandates and rules. However, my wife's brother keeps saying stuff like,

00:45:16.680 it's literally just the science. Gosh. That's sad. It's sad that she married a

00:45:25.880 gender confused individual such as that. Now, I would love to destroy him with facts and logic, 1.00

00:45:31.720 but my wife really wants me to not start drama in our family text thread. So what should I do?

00:45:36.240 Sincerely, Dante forgot the circle of hell dedicated to rabid COVID liberals. 0.98

00:45:40.000 Good signature, actually, because this dilemma reminds me that angel, that fools rush in, 0.97

00:45:46.520 rather, where angels fear to tread. So your brother-in-law is, okay, it's not, it's not the, 0.92

00:45:57.000 that the sister married someone. It's your wife's brother. Okay. That's so, all right. At least a 0.53

00:46:02.880 woman has not necessarily chosen this man to be her life partner and head of her household,

00:46:07.440 because that would, that would be really sad. That would compound the problem. But what he's

00:46:11.340 saying is, let's literally science and you're a bunch of idiots if you don't take the 17th Fauci 0.99

00:46:14.680 jab or whatever, you know, even though the science keeps changing day by day, often contradicting 0.99

00:46:19.260 what was said the day before, he is going to be more likely to interject and spout off and mouth

00:46:26.560 off and think that he is much smarter than everybody else. Often the smartest people in the room are the

00:46:34.940 most calm. You'll notice this in heated discussions. The people who really get angry and red in the face

00:46:41.740 and steam coming out of their ears and screaming, they usually know less about what they're talking

00:46:46.680 about than everyone else in the discussion. And they're getting angry because they're getting

00:46:50.580 frustrated because they can't articulate their views. So I would just let him mouth off. A family

00:46:56.660 text thread is not a college debate. Family text thread is not owning someone with facts and logic on

00:47:05.320 YouTube. What's, what's the purpose? What's the purpose of the thread is to keep your family together

00:47:09.680 and to have you all interact and talk. It's not to win arguments. It's not even to convince people

00:47:14.800 of true things. So let him mouth off. Talk sense to a fool and he will call you foolish. I think

00:47:23.280 Euripides said that. Last question from Brandon. Michael, I'm writing to you with a question in

00:47:29.640 regard to doubt in my faith. I'm a Christian of roughly three years. I can't seem to shake this

00:47:33.460 sort of internal nagging doubt. I listen to many intelligent Christians who are able to rationally

00:47:37.720 explain faith and present good evidence for the reliability of the gospels, but I just can't seem to quiet

00:47:43.180 this internal doubt. Regardless of the doubt, I continue to pray daily, read my Bible, work toward

00:47:47.100 becoming a stronger Christian. I wanted to know if you ever deal with this or how you would respond.

00:47:51.700 Yes, yes. We've all had doubts. I was an atheist for 10 years. Depending on your flavor of Christianity,

00:47:58.540 I'm not sure what denomination you are, if you're Catholic or whatnot. Some are a little more skeptical

00:48:03.260 than others. And so there are certain Christian friends of mine who will say, well, we can never really

00:48:09.240 know for sure if God exists. Well, you know, it's just, we just got to take this leap. But you actually

00:48:14.480 can. You can know the existence of God with certainty from the natural world by the light

00:48:19.400 of human reason. Revelation plays a role as well in the faith and a very important role. But you can

00:48:25.080 know just from the natural world, just using your own noggin, that God exists. And then there will be a

00:48:30.160 lot of questions about God and the nature of God and the Trinity and Christ and Christianity and

00:48:36.400 everything else. But just know, you can know the existence of God from the natural world. There

00:48:41.360 are plenty of good arguments for this. You say you've dealt with some of these arguments. So you

00:48:44.260 can have confidence in that. And just because the culture is discouraging you and just because

00:48:49.020 you don't totally understand the nature of God, who by his very definition is incomprehensible,

00:48:56.660 that doesn't mean that you should just, you know, throw your faith by the wayside or worry

00:49:03.320 unnecessarily. There's a great story about St. Augustine, that St. Augustine was writing about

00:49:07.720 the Trinity. And it's a legend, of course, but he's writing about the Trinity. He walks

00:49:10.580 up, he sees a kid using a clamshell and putting water into a little hole from the ocean. Augustine

00:49:15.720 says, what are you doing? And the kid says, oh, I'm going to fill the whole ocean into this

00:49:19.620 hole. And Augustine says, you can't do that. You can't fit the ocean in that hole. And then

00:49:23.280 the boy miraculously is transformed into an angel. And he says, yeah, neither can you fit the

00:49:27.800 Trinity into your little head, St. Augustine. And this legend, though it is, has a lot of,

00:49:32.980 a lot of truth to it. Because of course, God is by nature, if God were totally comprehensible

00:49:40.080 by you, he would not be God. So God does exist. You can trust that just as you might struggle

00:49:45.820 to understand some aspect of, I don't know, calculus. How much more complicated? The divine

00:49:51.380 logic of the universe. So persist, keep at it, keep praying, don't be discouraged, don't

00:49:55.100 let the devil get you down. I'm Michael Knowles. This is The Michael Knowles Show. See you Monday.
