00:00:00.000 Governor Ron DeSantis has officially signed into law the Parental Rights in Education Bill,
00:00:05.360 which prohibits teachers from preaching transgenderism in kindergarten through
00:00:09.780 third grade classrooms. The law is extremely popular among voters, more than 60% of whom
00:00:16.480 support the law. But it's extremely unpopular among the degenerate perverts who rule over us.
00:00:23.280 The Walt Disney Company, a corporation exclusively focused on entertaining children,
00:00:29.940 is furious that five-year-olds won't be taught transgenderism in Florida schools.
00:00:35.840 Disney told the Daily Wire that, quote, Florida's HB 1557, also known as the Don't Say Gay Bill,
00:00:42.980 should never have been passed and should never have been signed into law. Our goal as a company
00:00:48.360 is for this law to be repealed by the legislature or struck down in the courts. And we remain
00:00:54.260 committed to supporting the national and state organizations working to achieve that.
00:00:59.180 In other words, this $200 billion kids programming company is going to focus its vast resources
00:01:08.100 on undermining parents and peddling transgenderism to kids. President Biden promised to take the full
00:01:16.940 force of the federal government and devote it to undermining Florida parents, claiming that
00:01:23.420 supposedly transgender first graders, quote, deserve to be affirmed in the sexual delusions planted in
00:01:30.820 them by creepy teachers. And not to be outdone, Nancy Pelosi has claimed that, quote, this cruel
00:01:38.080 legislation is an affront to our nation's cherished values and sends a harmful message to our children.
00:01:46.080 But contrary to whatever Nancy Pelosi might think, convincing five-year-olds to chop off their
00:01:52.740 genitals does not rank among our nation's cherished values. It never has. It does not now. And I
00:02:00.220 certainly hope it never will. It's sick. It's downright demonic. And the vast majority of Americans
00:02:08.040 know it. Unfortunately, the people who control almost all the power in this country support it.
00:02:15.260 And the fight for parents' rights to protect their kids from these psychos
00:02:18.860 is just getting started. I'm Michael Knowles. It's The Michael Knowles Show.

00:04:04.600 best governor in America. He is handling the parental rights in education controversy
00:04:10.400 as best as he possibly could. He's handling the sloganeering from the Democrats, the crazy
00:04:16.920 don't say gay slogan that has nothing to do with the bill. He's handling the immense pressure from
00:04:21.680 woke corporations, including Disney, including corporations that are really prominent in Florida.
00:04:26.240 He's handling the pressure from the federal government exactly as he should. And what is his
00:04:30.900 response? His response is, stand firm, don't back down, and tell your opponents to pound sand.
00:04:37.580 We will continue to recognize that in the state of Florida, parents have a fundamental role in the
00:04:45.280 education, health care, and well-being of their children. We will not move from that. I don't care
00:04:51.220 what corporate media outlets say. I don't care what Hollywood says. I don't care what big corporations say.
00:04:58.460 Here I stand. Here I stand. I'm not backing down. Not only is this the right thing to do because it
00:05:08.920 is a national scandal that these creeps are being allowed to indoctrinate five-year-olds in
00:05:16.060 transgenderism. Not only is DeSantis doing the morally right thing, he's doing the politically smart
00:05:22.040 thing. He's doing the only thing that will not destroy his political career. So often,
00:05:29.940 the squishes believe, ah, gosh, I was standing firm on not letting these creeps trans the kids,
00:05:37.420 but then I got a call from the big corporation. Ah, then I got a threat from the federal government.
00:05:42.760 Ah, maybe I'll back down a little bit. You saw this with Asa Hutchinson in Arkansas. You saw this
00:05:47.480 with Kristi Noem in South Dakota, although she then flipped her opinion. Initially, she was going
00:05:52.420 to let dudes compete with women in girl sports in college, because presumably because some corporate
00:05:58.140 leaders called her. And then she realized that was destroying her political career. So then she's
00:06:02.020 tried to reverse course. DeSantis is standing firm because it's the right thing to do. And in this
00:06:06.920 case, at least, the right thing to do is the politically smart thing to do. What the libs are
00:06:11.260 telling us on this transing the kids issue is that it's not happening. It's not happening. The Florida
00:06:19.640 don't say gay bill, which is really the parental rights and education bill, which really just says
00:06:25.500 that you can't teach five to nine year olds about transgenderism and creepy sex stuff. They're saying
00:06:32.040 it's not happening. It's not real. It's not, it's, it's addressing a problem that does not exist.
00:06:36.960 Oh, okay, great. Well then, then what's the big deal? If, if it's addressing a problem that does
00:06:43.060 not exist, then why are you so insistent that we repeal the bill? It's okay. It's not going to have
00:06:48.860 any effect, right? Democrats. No, what the Democrats are saying is it's, it's addressing a problem that
00:06:55.060 does not exist. And it's really good that it does exist. No, uh, what we're not transing the kids in
00:07:00.400 kindergarten. And it's essential that we trans the kids in kindergarten, which is it? They're
00:07:05.940 speaking out of both sides of their mouths. Well, we, we've got the receipts. We know that this sort
00:07:09.360 of thing is happening. There, there's a story out of the Austin independent school district.
00:07:14.360 So this is not, not just Florida. This is now in Texas, Texas, Texas is supposed to be a very
00:07:20.080 conservative state and the Austin independent school district. A teacher has sent some internal
00:07:26.700 messages that were obtained by one of our favorite Twitter accounts, libs of TikTok, which reveal
00:07:32.900 that she is preaching LGBTQIA, LMNOP stuff in the classroom and transgenderism specifically in the
00:07:40.140 classroom. And that 20 of this teacher's 32 fourth grade students have come out to her as queer.
00:07:51.640 Must be something in the water in Austin. Maybe Alex Jones is onto something. This is what the teacher
00:07:56.080 says. Teacher was very upset that for one of the multiple gay pride celebrations in this public
00:08:04.560 school, in this elementary school, they called it a wellness walk. And the teacher's complaining
00:08:10.240 because that's not gay enough. So the teacher says, well, I understand that wellness walk is
00:08:14.760 something that was previously in motion to promote health and fitness and is something we want to
00:08:18.400 continue. It really takes away from the experience of celebrating pride to couple the two. The first
00:08:23.900 pride was a riot. It's not, not enough to just welcome love and celebrate queer folks. And then
00:08:29.200 this fourth grade teacher puts an X instead of a KS on folks because, well, this teacher knows a lot
00:08:35.700 about radical sexual ideologies. The teacher does not know a lot about grammar. That's unfortunate.
00:08:40.580 Probably explains our educational situation in America. Your allyship should always lead you to
00:08:45.380 activism, speaking up and fighting for what's right. Even when it feels uncomfortable, we can't choose
00:08:49.920 in and out of our protest spaces. Okay. So saying that the gay pride parades taking place in the
00:08:55.480 elementary school are not, they're not radical enough. So we need more explicitly sexual parades
00:09:02.740 in the elementary school. And then here's the kicker. Out of the 32 students that I teach,
00:09:08.460 20 of them are LGBTQIA plus and have come out to me. I feel that we need to do better for them
00:09:17.140 to affirm our students. We need to publicly announce what we had this morning was a pride parade.
00:09:22.420 Our students are aware and paying attention. 20 out of 32 students are LGBTQIA. We're talking about
00:09:31.760 eight and nine year olds. What are the odds? One, one, the first problem with this is that what this
00:09:41.080 teacher is bragging about is that eight-year-olds have secrets with her. Secrets that they, maybe
00:09:47.060 they don't tell their parents. Sexual secrets that they're regularly discussing with their creepy,
00:09:54.020 degenerate pervert of a teacher. But then you have the statistical implausibility, let's call it,
00:10:01.920 that 20 out of the 32 eight and nine-year-olds that this woman, I hope it's a woman,
00:10:08.800 good, it's even creepier if it's a man, that this individual is supposed to be teaching and
00:10:15.320 instructing and leading. 20 out of 32 all have the same weird, extremely rare sexual condition.
00:10:24.740 Isn't that a little strange? Well, it's not strange when you realize that eight and nine-year-olds
00:10:30.080 don't know anything and they just play pretend all the time and they're extremely impressionable
00:10:34.960 and full of delusion. And this teacher is obviously grooming them. This teacher is obviously implanting
00:10:41.180 these crazy ideas in their heads. Just like I remember, I remember in, I don't know, kindergarten
00:10:47.520 or first grade, I learned what an archeologist was, that we had a little lesson in the classroom about
00:10:53.480 archeologists. And then three quarters of the students decided they wanted to be archeologists
00:10:58.680 someday. We, because we, Oh, I get, what do you do? You dig up dinosaur bones. Cool. We're all
00:11:04.120 going to be archeologists. That's what we are now. That's our identity because we heard it because
00:11:08.480 we're very impressionable and it was something novel. And, and the teacher seemed to suggest
00:11:13.000 this was a cool thing. The LGBTQIA ideology in this fourth grade classroom, it's just, it's just
00:11:19.780 today's version of teachers describing what it is to be an archeologist or anything else,
00:11:24.440 except the consequences of this are extraordinarily grave because the consequences of this increasingly
00:11:31.920 peddled by our left wing establishment is that we've got to put these little kids on hormone
00:11:35.660 blockers. We've got to mutilate their bodies. We've got to permanently destroy their lives
00:11:39.640 because of the sick sexual fantasies and perversions of these radical leftist teachers. But don't worry,
00:11:46.380 it's not happening. We got to get rid of, we've got to get rid of any bill to protect the kids from
00:11:50.460 these creeps. So says Disney. So says our political establishment. We can't have that.
00:11:55.940 What's happening to our country? Increasingly, it's hard to tell even what our country is. You
00:12:00.300 go to the grocery store, you buy meat. It says product of the USA. It's from El Salvador. Well,
00:12:04.400 that's why you got to check out Good Ranchers. Go to goodranchers.com slash Knowles right now. I love
00:12:10.440 Good Ranchers. I eat it multiple times a week. You know, when I, when I was a kid, having steak
00:12:16.600 was a special occasion kind of thing. It was, and we'd get, you know, we'd go down to the local market
00:12:21.620 and get some steaks, but it was, because steak is very expensive. What Good Ranchers has done,
00:12:26.840 which I think is just so phenomenal, is it's made it affordable such that you can have steak. It
00:12:32.340 doesn't need to just be a once every couple of months treat. You can have steak regularly. You can
00:12:36.900 have it, frankly, every week, really high quality steak, prime steak, better than organic chicken too.

00:13:22.860 in kindergartens and elementary schools and middle schools. That's not happening, right? It's not,
00:13:28.500 except we know, we just heard the story about the fourth grade teacher in Austin who's obviously
00:13:33.040 grooming these poor students. Well, it's not just elementary schools, it's middle schools. There's a
00:13:36.960 story out of a New Jersey middle school where the New Jersey middle school is forcing students to
00:13:43.360 learn about transgender hormone therapy without parental notification. This is not in a health
00:13:51.820 class. This is not in a sex education class. This is in social studies class. The New Jersey public
00:14:01.880 taxpayer funded middle school is forcing these students to watch a video about a woman, a young
00:14:09.020 woman who thinks that she's a man, injecting herself with a bunch of hormones and testosterone
00:14:16.380 to try to, in some slight way, better resemble a man.
00:14:22.040 So I wrote a email and I just wanted to share it. Just showing people that you can like build up the
00:14:29.700 courage to, you know, um, stand up for yourself in a way that, you know, this is what you want to do
00:14:35.520 with your life. And I think we should be working just as hard to mentally accept ourselves for exactly
00:14:41.220 who we are. Yeah, I think it's really important to be mentally sound and safe. And I really feel like
00:14:48.420 I'm going to have a better life and feel more comfortable in my life if I accept that I'm a
00:14:56.820 trans man. The video is called 10 Years on Testosterone. Details the transition of ADN Dowling
00:15:05.480 through these hormone injections. They didn't notify the parents. The video says you can build up the
00:15:12.920 courage to stand up for yourself in a way that this is what you want to do with your life. That's
00:15:18.380 what they're telling to what 11 year olds, 12 year olds, 13 year olds, no parental notification
00:15:24.620 because what the administrators and the political activists at the school are thinking is the parents
00:15:30.840 won't like this. We know the parents don't like this stuff. 60% of voters in America support the
00:15:37.900 parental rights and education bill in Florida, which they're calling don't say gay. The vast majority
00:15:43.680 of voters and certainly the vast, vast majority of parents do not want teachers indoctrinating young
00:15:50.320 kids, elementary, middle school kids into the sexual ideology. And so the teachers say, well,
00:15:54.440 if we want to do it anyway, we think it's really important. So we're just not going to tell the
00:15:58.180 parents. We're not. And why do they want to do it? The reason they want to do it has long roots in
00:16:05.520 left-wing political activism. It goes back to at least to the 1930s to 1940s. There was a guy named
00:16:12.560 Wilhelm Reich. I've mentioned him on the show before. He was this very creepy German sociologist
00:16:17.800 type who had a theory that all the problems in the world from cancer to war to every issue on earth
00:16:25.200 is due to a lack of orgasms. And so people need to have more sex with all sorts of people,
00:16:31.000 maybe with themselves. They need to just have sex, sex, sex all the time.
00:16:33.460 And that will solve the problems in the world. He created this bizarre pseudo-scientific device
00:16:40.020 called the orgone accumulator. The orgones, he believed, were these sort of mystical sex energy
00:16:47.640 molecules that powered the whole universe. And he had this orgone accumulator box that very
00:16:55.300 intelligent, popular left-wing people purchased. J.D. Salinger, author of Catcher in the Rye,
00:17:00.800 Norman Mailer, all sorts of people. Woody Allen actually made fun of this as the orgasmatron.
00:17:11.500 Bernie Sanders wrote essays about this in the 1960s and 70s. I write about it in my book,
00:17:15.220 Speechless. He wrote all of these essays about how we need to make younger and younger people
00:17:21.980 more comfortable with their sexuality. He talked about little kids being comfortable with their
00:17:25.600 sexuality. Because sex is, the one thing that Wilhelm Reich and all these creeps got right,
00:17:30.080 is sex is very powerful. It is really important to human nature. It drives a lot of our desires and
00:17:36.840 our instincts. And so if you can shape sex in really impressionable people, you can more easily mold
00:17:43.780 them. You can more easily control them. So they're doing it in elementary schools. They're doing it in
00:17:48.220 middle schools. They're doing it in high schools. There is a high school in Massachusetts
00:17:52.300 that is teaching transgenderism, the idea that men can become women magically or that men secretly are
00:17:58.340 women, that is teaching that as fact. Now, one of the arguments you hear sometimes is, well,
00:18:05.960 we shouldn't teach this stuff in elementary school, but it's okay to teach it in high school.
00:18:11.420 Actually, this is kind of the argument behind the Florida bill. The Florida bill says,
00:18:14.780 you can't teach this crap to kindergarten through third graders, but older students,
00:18:18.680 they can be taught this. But of course, they shouldn't be taught this. The idea that a biology
00:18:23.680 class is teaching that men can secretly be women is contrary to the most basic elements of biology.
00:18:31.460 It's just a lie. The students who are in this class are receiving a really bad education that's
00:18:36.900 filling their head with lies and delusions that can be personally destructive to them and also just
00:18:41.600 leave them ignorant. Not even just ignorant, but it'll leave them being absolutely confident,
00:18:46.440 knowing things that are simply not true. This is according to the new Boston Post.
00:18:51.920 It reports that Needham High School in Needham, Massachusetts is teaching kids in biology class
00:18:58.180 that humans who change their gender as though such a thing were possible are no different than animals
00:19:03.620 or plants who naturally alter their body composition for the survival of their species. According to the
00:19:09.200 report, this biology class also requests that students not use gendered language. So don't refer to him
00:19:15.360 and her. That would be very, very wrong during the section on genetics in order to create an inclusive
00:19:21.900 classroom. So they're saying that for certain animals and certain organisms, really, for certain
00:19:29.920 organisms, sex is a little more ambiguous. You've got asexual reproduction. You've got some examples of
00:19:36.740 permafrostism in nature and some can alter their sex to some degree. And they're saying, well,
00:19:45.340 transgenderism is just like that. When a man lops off his genitals and pretends to be a woman because
00:19:50.700 perverts filled his head with lies, that's just the same as some single-celled organism changing some
00:19:56.880 aspect of its sexuality, right? Wrong. Of course, this is completely insane. And so it's frankly,
00:20:03.260 the issue with the Florida bill is not that it goes too far and you're not allowed to say gay
00:20:07.980 or whatever nonsense the left is peddling. The problem with the Florida bill is it doesn't go
00:20:11.600 nearly far enough. Third grade is not nearly far enough to protect people from the lies being peddled
00:20:18.040 by these activists. And they are lies. They have to lie to make this thing stick. This is a story I've
00:20:25.040 been meaning to get to it all week, but actually it fits quite now with what we're talking about.
00:20:28.040 Now, when William Thomas, the hulking dude who beat all the chicks at the NCAA swim and dive
00:20:34.540 championship a couple of weeks ago, when he won, won, quote unquote, it became quite clear from the
00:20:41.700 pictures of that event that he's a man. He's tall. He's heavy. He's got broad shoulders. He's got a big
00:20:48.140 Adam's apple. He has other protrusions that were clear in his Borat jumpsuit. He hasn't changed a thing
00:20:53.460 about his body. He's not. This is why part of me thinks he might be just a performance artist
00:20:56.980 showing the absurdity of gender theory because he just clearly looks like a man. He hasn't changed
00:21:03.160 his voice. The only thing he did was slightly grow his hair out. And then he put a swim cap on. So
00:21:07.260 that didn't even matter. And the reporting from the establishment media couldn't bear that.
00:21:14.080 It was too real. People would just see. They'd say, wait a second. I read in the newspaper. I heard
00:21:19.240 on television that this man was a demure, delicate little woman. But actually you look at him,
00:21:25.300 he's obviously just a dude. He's towering over these girls. So what did NBC News do?
00:21:30.860 When they had a choice between changing their reporting and changing the reality of the story
00:21:37.940 itself, what do you think they chose? You know what they chose? They tried to change the reality.
00:21:43.580 NBC News, the Today Show, got in a lot of trouble because they took an image of Will Thomas
00:21:48.260 and totally airbrushed it out. So all of the features on Thomas that seemed masculine on,
00:21:56.140 this is just his face, his shoulders were even, were kind of in the water. So it's really just the
00:21:59.980 face. They just softened all of the features to make him look more like a woman. It was a really bad
00:22:06.140 airbrushing job. It was a really bad Photoshop job. Thankfully, thankfully the editors at NBC
00:22:13.220 are so incompetent that they couldn't do a good job at it. Let me tell you, if they had Daily Wire
00:22:18.280 editors here, they would have, it would have been much more persuasive. Okay. But they've only got
00:22:23.120 incompetence over there at NBC. So it didn't work. You looked at it, you said, wait a second. That's
00:22:26.960 not, why is it, why is it so smooth? Why is the lighting like that? Oh, because when you look at the
00:22:31.700 real photo, he's obviously a dude. So they have to lie. They have to lie every step of the way.
00:22:36.980 They have to lie in their laws and regulations. They've got to lie in their corporate policies.
00:22:42.460 They've got to lie in photographs. Okay. Because they are so dead set on manufacturing this delusion
00:22:52.780 that we're all going to live in. This is, this is not a coincidence that we're dealing with this
00:23:00.180 insane biological, anti-biological ideology at the same time that we're seeing a major
00:23:06.660 technological revolution that confuses reality. We've got deep fakes. We've got very high-end
00:23:12.860 video technology. We're now moving into virtual reality in the metaverse. And what the push is
00:23:17.720 here for the left is to just reimagine reality. It goes all the way back to one of John F. Kennedy's
00:23:22.600 favorite lines, which he stole from George Bernard Shaw, the socialist playwright, who put the words
00:23:27.200 in the mouth of the serpent in the Garden of Eden, tempting Eve, who said, some people see things
00:23:32.420 that are and say, why? I dream things that never were and say, why not? This line, which the left
00:23:39.720 has used as a great inspiration for decades, this line comes from the mouth of the freaking devil.
00:23:45.720 This is the great temptation to live in fantasy, to reject the world that God has given us, to reject
00:23:53.280 the real world as it actually is, and close our eyes and bury our heads in sand and just live in our
00:23:58.340 own fantasies. That's something that little children do when they play pretend. Now it's the
00:24:02.940 adults who are teaching the children, who are telling them that the pretend world is real life,
00:24:07.560 and that's extraordinarily dangerous. We need to hold on to something tangible in this world,
00:24:13.480 especially as our money is becoming valueless, as we're living in all this virtual reality.
00:24:20.160 If you want to grab on something that has always had value, I recommend you check out Birch Gold.
00:24:24.460 Right now, stop what you're doing before inflation gets worse and text Knowles, K-N-O-W-L-E-S, to 989898

00:24:39.980 policies. That means that the paper money in your wallet is losing value fast. Russia's full-on invasion
00:24:46.740 of Ukraine, not making things any better, actually worsening the markets, declined. Today, an ounce of
00:24:52.440 gold is worth $1,900. In the year 2000, do you know what it was worth? $300. What if you had

00:25:52.680 around here at the Daily Wire because it's so outrageous, you may have noticed our pal Matt
00:25:58.400 Walsh announced his newest film, What is a Woman? Can't say much about it, but I can announce his
00:26:04.140 newest venture as a best-selling author, and that would be his book called, you guessed it,
00:26:08.180 What is a Woman? It's now available for pre-order at whatisawoman.com, also on Amazon,
00:26:12.120 where it just hit number eight on the bestseller charts in the, it hit number eight in the women's
00:26:18.540 studies category. So head on over there, pre-order the book. Matt has been chasing this question for
00:26:23.740 over a year. It's extremely important to him to show the world how easy this question should be.
00:26:29.420 You can help him find an answer when you pre-order the book, What is a Woman? at whatisawoman.com
00:26:33.160 or on Amazon. We'll be right back with a lot more.
00:26:47.420 Speaking of shaving men's faces, NBC News digitally shaved Will Thomas's face at the NCAA women's swim
00:26:56.300 meet. Well, shaving faces has become a national news story. Sometimes in politics and show business,
00:27:04.080 you find yourself in a position where you are the news story. And that is where the Daily Wire finds
00:27:09.880 itself right now. Because you know that the God King here, Jeremy Boring, launched a razor company,
00:27:16.720 Jeremy's Razors. He launched this, I guess now, multi-million dollar company because of a mean tweet
00:27:23.960 that was sent to me. I was on Candace Owens' old show. Candace made some point about transgenderism,
00:27:32.280 actually. I agreed with it. And then a Twitter account with two followers that I assume is just
00:27:38.140 a Democrat operative account came out and tagged Harry's and tried to get Harry's to cancel its
00:27:43.800 sponsorship of my show. A sponsorship that began long after I appeared on the other program. Everyone
00:27:49.340 knew my views on this subject. And Harry's Razors came out and said, well, this is terrible. We
00:27:54.420 condemn these views. It's vile. It's awful. Basically insulting our entire audience and saying
00:27:58.640 that they're condemnable, deplorable, irredeemable, bitter, clanging, awful people. And so we didn't
00:28:04.340 like that around here. Launched this razor company, Jeremy's Razors. You can find it at IHateHarrys.com.
00:28:11.200 The razor company has completely exploded. It's now much larger than Harry's in terms of its
00:28:16.780 social media footprint. We've sold about a gazillion razor subscriptions. Jeremy just
00:28:21.900 appeared on Tucker. Tucker loved the idea. For years, a company called Harry's Razors
00:28:28.180 advertised in the Daily Wire. Then Harry's, like Gillette and so many other companies in this
00:28:33.420 country, went politically insane. Harry's announced it was cutting advertising with the Daily Wire because
00:28:39.280 the Daily Wire believes in the concept of biological sex. And Harry's denounced that belief as, quote,
00:28:44.140 inexcusable. So rather than complain about this, the CEO of the Daily Wire, Jeremy Boring, came up
00:28:51.080 with an alternative. He started his own razor company. It's called Jeremy's Razors. It's already
00:28:55.280 more popular than Harry's. We haven't tried the razor, can't vouch for the razor. We can't tell you
00:28:59.540 the launch ad, one of the best ever made. Yeah, I mean, it's a joke, but that doesn't mean it isn't
00:29:03.560 real. We've absolutely started our own razor company. And in our first 72 hours, we've sold 30,000
00:29:08.600 razor kits and razor blade subscriptions. So great. How does and I just love it because you're not just
00:29:15.940 complaining, you're providing an alternative. And I just think it's beautiful. But I'm also tired of this
00:29:20.620 sort of nonprofit mentality on the right that responds to every attack with the same tired sort
00:29:25.740 of cycle of lose, complain and beg for donations. That's just a recipe for failure. We have to be
00:29:31.680 constructive. We have to be building a future. This is the key. Please do not tell Jeremy that
00:29:37.040 I said anything nice about him. I will deny it if you say I was complimenting him on this show.
00:29:41.420 But this is the whole key. Tucker hits on it. He alludes to it. And then Jeremy says it explicitly.
00:29:47.440 Tucker says, you're not just complaining. You're offering an alternative. That's the key here.
00:29:54.680 Sometimes it's important to complain, not to complain about personal slights, not to complain about
00:29:59.940 you're in traffic, not to complain about the food doesn't taste good, but to complain when it's
00:30:04.560 constructive, to say there's an injustice happening, to say that there is something wrong that we need
00:30:10.880 to fix. That sort of complaining, there's an important place for that sort of criticism.
00:30:14.840 Otherwise, we wouldn't know what's wrong. But that's not the end. Then you've got to build something.
00:30:19.940 And conservatives have been okay at complaining and criticizing, but we haven't been great at
00:30:24.840 building things. It's an uphill battle. The left controls all the power in this country.
00:30:27.820 But what Jeremy was saying is, no, no, no. We have to start building. And part of the reason
00:30:33.140 we haven't built is this issue of the nonprofit mentality on the right. He's saying, what happens
00:30:40.160 on the right is that we try to do something, the left beats us, then we whine and moan about it,
00:30:47.340 and then people give us more money. We say, this is really, really bad. It's getting even worse. And then
00:30:52.980 we tug on the heartstrings of conservative donors and they give us more money. And then we go fight
00:30:57.040 another losing battle. And then we get more money. Because if we won the battle, we wouldn't get all
00:31:01.800 that sweet nonprofit money. If we won the battle, then it would be solved. You see this with pro-life
00:31:07.960 advocacy sometimes. This is the fear with pro-life advocacy when it comes to actual politicians.
00:31:15.320 Politicians, Republican politicians, make a lot of money from pro-lifers. They say, we've got to
00:31:21.720 stop the radical abortionists. Give me $100 today and we're going to stop them. And then so you give
00:31:28.640 them $100. Yeah, it's a very important issue. Killing almost a million babies a year in this
00:31:31.820 country. But then sometimes those same politicians will not vote to limit abortion. They will not vote
00:31:40.920 to get rid of the problem because then they're getting rid of their cash cow. You get all of these
00:31:45.440 perverse incentives where the incentives for a lot of the institutional right is just to lose.
00:31:50.340 And so what Jeremy's saying is, we need to change the incentives. We need to realign the incentives
00:31:55.260 so that we are incentivized to win. We're not a nonprofit company, obviously. We're a pretty
00:32:02.780 profitable company. And so the incentive here is to win. The incentive here is to do something. It's
00:32:06.660 to win at the Supreme Court. If we hadn't won that Supreme Court battle over the OSHA vaccine mandate
00:32:11.320 that we ourselves brought to the court, we would have been screwed. We would have been in a really bad
00:32:17.200 situation. They would have fined us basically to bankrupt the company within two weeks. We would
00:32:22.240 have been in a horrible position. So we had to win. The incentive there was to win. It's totally right.
00:32:28.220 It's a really, really important thing. Not just for the razors. It's good. I shaved with the razor
00:32:32.680 today. It's a nice razor. But also for what it means. It's got to be a good product. It's got to
00:32:37.720 actually provide value. And what it means, the threat that that is posing to woke corporations
00:32:42.180 like Disney. Forget Harry's for a second. Like Disney, $200 billion company that's saying if you
00:32:47.520 don't trans your kids, if Florida voters don't let us trans their kids, we're going to spend a lot
00:32:52.100 of our resources to force them to do it. That is a grave threat to our republic. And we've got to
00:32:57.080 fight back. And you can't just fight back at the elected level. You got to do that too. But you got
00:33:01.220 to fight back in business. You got to fight back in the woke corporation. You got to fight back in
00:33:04.740 every single institution that the left has conquered. Speaking of doing violence to men's
00:33:10.900 faces, how's that for a transition? Will Smith has apologized for the slap heard round the world.
00:33:19.400 He actually started to apologize after he won the Best Actor award. I didn't even know that he won the
00:33:24.980 Best Actor award because no one actually watched the Oscars the other night. They just saw that clip
00:33:29.060 of Will Smith getting up and smacking Chris Rock in the face for telling a joke about his wife.
00:33:33.460 But I guess he won the Best Oscar. And then during his acceptance speech,
00:33:38.260 Will Smith alluded a little bit to kind of almost start to apologize.
00:33:43.080 Now, I know to do what we do, you got to be able to take abuse. You got to be able to have
00:33:52.720 people talk crazy about you. In this business, you got to be able to have people disrespecting you.
00:34:00.780 And you got to smile and you got to pretend like that's okay.
00:34:10.360 But Richard Williams, and what I loved, thank you, D, Denzel said to me a few minutes ago,
00:34:17.920 he said, at your highest moment, be careful. That's when the devil comes for you.
00:34:21.940 Really good advice, as is usually the case from Denzel Washington. Denzel Washington is an extremely
00:34:32.620 smart guy. There was actually a clip of Denzel Washington. He, I forget when this was. This
00:34:39.000 was a couple of years ago. Denzel was asked about some news story about him that was, it's, I forget,
00:34:45.360 it was something about his politics. He's always had a reputation as being a little more conservative
00:34:48.300 than the rest of Hollywood. And he just completely scorched the left-wing media.
00:34:53.480 There's been a lot of odds about this fake news. You were the subject of a fake news story.
00:34:57.740 Oh yeah, what'd they say? I was running for president. No, no, I voted.
00:35:00.020 No, you were running for president.
00:35:00.760 No, what'd they say?
00:35:01.520 You switched your support from Trump.
00:35:02.520 I switched, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:35:04.880 What do you make of all the fake news and it affects you?
00:35:07.100 If you don't read the newspaper, you're uninformed. If you do read it, you're misinformed.
00:35:11.920 If you don't read the newspaper, you're uninformed. If you do read it, you're misinformed.
00:35:15.080 This is an old quote, though Denzel's, in recent years, is the one who's made it quite popular.
00:35:21.580 And it's wrongly attributed to Mark Twain, which is funny because people who read that it's a Mark
00:35:27.220 Twain quote in the newspaper are misinformed. But he's totally right. If you don't read the paper,
00:35:30.500 you're uninformed. If you do read it, you're misinformed. He gives Will Smith this good advice.
00:35:34.240 At your highest moment, that's when the devil comes for you. That's totally true.
00:35:37.260 The devil is just waiting. The devil, the devil's a real person, okay? Antonin Scalia made this point in
00:35:43.420 an interview with New York Magazine some years ago, about 10 years ago now, in which this silly
00:35:49.920 New York Magazine reporter said, do you believe in the devil? You believe in heaven and hell? He
00:35:54.940 said, I do. I even believe in the devil. Do you realize how out of touch you are with most of
00:35:59.920 America? Do you realize how out of touch you are with most people throughout history,
00:36:04.340 most of whom have believed in the devil? As Baudelaire says, the greatest trick the devil plays
00:36:10.460 is to convince people that he doesn't exist. So Will Smith gets that. He starts to kind of almost
00:36:16.820 apologize. Now he's issued a full-on apology to Chris Rock. He says, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have
00:36:23.060 done it. It was wrong. He posted it on Instagram. Now it's even more embarrassing for Will Smith
00:36:28.440 because a clip has just come out of Will Smith on the Arsenio Hall show some years ago in which he
00:36:33.840 himself makes a joke about a guy who is bald because he's got alopecia. He has a rule.
00:36:40.400 The bass player, he got a rule. He got to wax his head every morning. That's a rule.
00:36:46.800 He follows the rules, man. He follows the rules. Oh, these are jokes. Come on.
00:36:52.780 See, you got too into the characters and got hurt.
00:36:55.180 You got to love Twitter. You got to love the internet. There is a clip. There is a tweet.
00:37:02.800 There is a post for everything. In this clip from some years ago, Will Smith makes almost the exact
00:37:11.000 same joke about this musician that Chris Rock made about Will Smith's wife and then has almost
00:37:18.540 the exact same reaction as Chris Rock. Chris Rock reacts after Will Smith smacks him. Chris Rock says,
00:37:22.860 it's just a joke. It was a G.I. Jane joke. It wasn't that bad. And then in this clip on Arsenio
00:37:27.440 Hall, Will Smith says, it's just a joke. It's just a joke. Come on, man. I'm a comedian. I'm just
00:37:30.680 an entertainer here. But of course, it wasn't about the joke. It wasn't about Chris Rock. I think that's
00:37:36.480 why Chris Rock was so shocked and frankly, why Will Smith was probably shocked with himself.
00:37:40.460 I think that the smack heard around the world probably had a little bit more to do with the fact
00:37:46.700 that Will Smith's wife has brutally cuckolded him and humiliated him in public
00:37:52.700 for years at this point. And he feels emasculated and humiliated by that than it does about Chris
00:37:59.480 Rock making a relatively mild joke. And he's just letting out that anger and that shame that he
00:38:04.700 feels on Chris Rock. And why does he feel it? The argument that Jada Smith and I guess Will Smith
00:38:10.920 were making when they aired their dirty laundry on TV was, look, this isn't a big deal. Oh, we have all
00:38:16.580 these cultural hangups over infidelity. But come on, that's just, that's just old fashioned. That's
00:38:22.600 just irrational. It's fine. We can, you know, Jada Smith, she has a kind of encounter with this guy
00:38:30.640 that she was sleeping with. She, it's a kind of, it's a, it's a minor indiscretion. It's well, but
00:38:35.320 it's fine. And we can, and let's talk about this openly. There's no shame in that. But of course there
00:38:40.180 is. Of course there is. And of course Will Smith is humiliated. And I feel terrible for the guy.
00:38:45.040 I feel genuinely terrible for Will Smith. Because even when Chris Rock makes the joke,
00:38:50.280 Will Smith started laughing. And then he looked over at Jada Smith and Jada didn't like it. And I,
00:38:54.400 I tell you, I don't like to get into psychobabble much. I could read his mind.
00:38:58.860 You could see the wheels turning in Will Smith's head. He thought, oh,
00:39:01.860 I've already been so emasculated. I've already been so humiliated. I've already literally been
00:39:06.100 cuckolded before the entire public. I'm a very famous guy, huge movie star. I've been
00:39:11.340 as humiliated as you possibly can be. To be a cuckold is one of the most humiliating things that
00:39:18.280 there is. In the Italian culture, I'll tell you as someone of Italian extraction, that's,
00:39:23.560 it's, it's one of the worst things you can call somebody. You call them a cornuto,
00:39:26.300 the sign of the cuckold. Actually the, the rock and roll symbol, you know, where you put your hands
00:39:30.460 in the air, that's an Italian symbol for the evil eye. And it's the sign of the cuckold.
00:39:34.860 You're saying, oh, I'm going to, but you know, I'm, you don't want to be a cuckold. You want,
00:39:38.720 you want your enemies to be cuckold. I mean, it's so humiliating. And he's, he's looking,
00:39:42.400 he says, God, I can't do it. I can't let this happen. And then he goes up and smacks him. Then
00:39:46.640 he feels bad about it. It's your highest moment. The devil's going to come and get you. This,
00:39:51.740 this Will Smith incident, people are still talking about it because it kind of confuses political
00:39:57.200 lines. You've got some people who are, to some degree, myself included, who are sympathetic with
00:40:02.980 Will Smith, who like the idea that it's kind of chivalrous to get up there and defend your woman's
00:40:07.340 honor. How dare you, sir? I challenge you to a duel. I demand satisfaction. I, I, I am sympathetic to
00:40:13.200 that. I don't think people should be allowed to say whatever they want. I mean, there's, there's not
00:40:15.820 even a first amendment protection for fighting words. There's always been a carve out for fighting
00:40:20.220 words, among other things. I talk about this in my book, Speechless. The founding fathers wouldn't
00:40:23.860 have rolled over for a joke about a man's wife. They would have smacked him across the face.
00:40:27.400 They probably would have challenged him to a duel. But on the other hand, we're talking about a
00:40:31.160 comedian here, Chris Rock. The guy is paid to go and tell jokes about celebrities in the room. And
00:40:36.420 not only is Will Smith a celebrity, but Jada Smith has made herself a celebrity. She's not exactly a
00:40:41.100 homemaker. She's not Donna Reed. Okay. She's not staying at home as a traditional stay at home wife.
00:40:47.660 No, she's a public figure. And so she's open to that kind of public criticism for better and for worse.
00:40:52.440 The problem here with Will Smith's reaction is that it wasn't this principled, totally in control,
00:41:00.180 dignified response. Hello, sir, I demand satisfaction. He lost his cool. He was not at all in self-control.
00:41:07.180 And that was even more humiliating for him. Those sweltering summer nights that leave you tossing

00:41:41.660 You know who is in self-control? Donald Trump. Donald John Trump. Our nation's 45th and
00:41:50.280 potentially 47th president is in such self-control that he just hit a hole in one while playing a
00:41:56.560 round of golf. The reason this is a news story, well, it's impressive to hit a hole in one.
00:42:01.600 But the reason it's a news story is not because Trump hit a hole in one. It's because of the
00:42:05.420 statement that he issued. Trump issues a full press release and these press releases read kind of
00:42:11.920 like long tweets ever since he was kicked off Twitter. I want to read it in full. If you'll indulge
00:42:17.280 me, I have to read you this statement by Trump in full. He says, many people are asking, so I'll
00:42:22.660 give it to you now. It is 100% true. While playing with the legendary golfer Ernie Ells, winner of four
00:42:27.900 majors and approximately 72 other tournaments throughout the world, Gene Sowers, winner of
00:42:31.980 the senior US Open, Ken Duke and Mike Goodes, both excellent tour players, I made a hole in one.
00:42:37.380 It took place at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida on the seventh hole,
00:42:41.260 which was playing 181 yards into a slight wind. I hit a five iron, which sailed magnificently into
00:42:48.680 a rather strong wind with approximately five feet of cut, whereupon it bounced twice and then went,
00:42:54.340 italicized, clank into the hole. These great tour players noticed it before I did because their eyes
00:43:00.100 are slightly better, but on that one hole only, their swings weren't. Anyway, there's a lot of chatter
00:43:06.240 about it. Quite exciting. And people everywhere seem to be asking for the facts. I'm sorry. I'm
00:43:12.760 sorry. It's too good. Playing with that group of wonderful, talented players was a lot of fun.
00:43:18.300 The match was Ernie and me with no strokes against Gene, Mike, and Ken. I won't tell you who won
00:43:22.660 because I'm a very modest individual. And you will then say I was bragging. And I don't like people
00:43:29.720 who brag. Watch the video here. And then it's a video of Trump's hole in one. Why do I read that?
00:43:36.260 One, I read it because it's incredibly funny and I miss him so much. And I just wish he were on
00:43:41.960 Twitter and all of our lives would be at least 40% funnier and more filled with humor if Trump were
00:43:50.260 still on Twitter. But the other reason I mention it is because this is a man in self-control. Yes,
00:43:57.740 he was a billionaire playboy. Yes, he's had a colorful life. But beyond some minor indiscretions here or
00:44:03.800 there, he really is a man in self-control. He doesn't drink. He barely sleeps. He's a workaholic.
00:44:10.020 He shockingly keeps himself in relatively decent shape for a retired president who lives on a diet
00:44:16.060 of fast food and Diet Coke. He actually seems to have a lot of energy. And he doesn't let his emotions
00:44:22.440 run away with him. When he's making points, even in the heat of passion, he's always controlled.
00:44:29.760 You've got the nuclear maniac Kim Jong-un in North Korea calling Trump an old dotard and threatening
00:44:39.060 to blow up America. And what does Trump do? Does he react in an emotional way? No. He says,
00:44:45.180 oh, little rocket man, I would never call him short and fat. Well, I hope he knows I've got a button
00:44:49.560 and mine's bigger. Ha ha ha. He's always, he's crafting these jokes in a way that tells you it's
00:44:56.780 cool. He's going to let it roll off him. He's, he's in command. The same cannot be said of Joe Biden.
00:45:03.800 Joe Biden seems like a man who has no self-control at all. He's constantly contradicting himself.
00:45:08.700 He's backtracking. He's walking away. He's mumbling. He's stumbling. He's getting really,
00:45:13.400 really angry. And then in the same one sentence, he'll get really angry and go into shouty Joe Biden.
00:45:17.960 And then he'll kind of calm down and trickle off. This, it's the total opposite. Very often
00:45:22.040 presidents are followed by their opposite. And with Trump, you have a guy who's very in command,
00:45:27.820 very boisterous, very funny. And he's followed by this guy Biden, who's kind of nothing,
00:45:35.620 who just blows around in the wind. He has no idea what he believes. And, and that's why he'll
00:45:39.820 contradict himself and walk back his policies again and again. Peter Doocy, one of the few
00:45:44.520 conservatives in the white house press pool, just asked Joe Biden about his recent contradictions,
00:45:49.760 especially the contradictions on Ukraine, on the policy toward Russia and on potentially what
00:45:55.280 could throw us into world war three. And Joe Biden says, I never said that.
00:45:59.240 Are you worried that other leaders in the world are going to start to doubt that America is back?
00:46:05.740 If some of these big things that you say on the world stage, keep getting walked back.
00:46:11.980 They're not much getting walked back.
00:46:13.560 It made it sound like just in the last couple of days, it sounded like you told US troops they
00:46:18.480 were going to Ukraine. It sounded like you said it was possible the US would use a chemical weapon.
00:46:23.720 And it sounded like you were calling for regime change in Russia. And we know
00:46:29.300 none of the three occurred. None of the three, none of the three, none of the three occurred. You
00:46:34.780 didn't hear that. You're making that up, Peter Doocy. That's not real. I never said US troops would go
00:46:41.100 see Ukraine. I never called for regime change in Russia. I didn't do any of the roll the tape.
00:46:48.480 And you're going to see when you're there and you've been there, you're going to see, you're going
00:46:53.360 to see women, young people standing, standing in the middle of the front of a damn tank. It's just
00:46:59.500 saying, I'm not leaving. I'm holding my ground. They're incredible. For God's sake, this man cannot
00:47:06.720 remain power. And to clarify on chemical weapons, could if chemical weapons were used in Ukraine,
00:47:13.700 would that trigger a military response from NATO? It would be, it would trigger a response in kind.
00:47:21.980 It would trigger a response in kind, which means in the same way, which means a chemical attack.
00:47:28.780 Not only did Joe Biden say all of those things, that US troops were going to Ukraine,
00:47:34.080 calling for regime change and ousting Vladimir Putin and threatening to use a chemical weapons
00:47:40.180 attack if Russia used one first. Not only did he say all of those things, but he apparently forgot
00:47:45.500 he said all of those things, which is believable because the guy doesn't know what end is up
00:47:49.280 most of the time. But I probably more likely is he was just lying and forgetting that we have the
00:47:55.240 video and then saying, okay, fine. Yeah, you got the video. You heard these things. Don't believe
00:48:00.000 your lying eyes. Don't believe your lying ears. This is the dishonesty of our ruling class. This is the
00:48:09.140 corruption of our ruling class. I don't think that the American people broadly are particularly radical.
00:48:16.740 I don't think the American people are particularly corrupt. I don't think the American people are
00:48:22.020 particularly vicious. Quite the opposite, actually. I think the American people are pretty virtuous,
00:48:25.640 generally, pretty interested in honesty, pretty reasonable. You see this on the don't trans the
00:48:31.700 kids bill, right? The don't trans the kids bill in Florida that the ruling class, most Americans
00:48:35.660 support that. Most Americans support securing our border. Most Americans support a sensible energy
00:48:40.520 policy. It's just a huge gap between what the Americans, mostly Republicans, but a lot of Democrats,
00:48:48.260 a lot of independents, a lot of moderates too, what they want, which is normal, ordinary good stuff,
00:48:53.480 and what our psychotic ruling class wants at this point. Okay, that is the battle. Can we wrest power
00:49:01.660 back from the small group of lunatics who are ruling us? The next six months, 12 months,
00:49:08.600 looking into 2022, looking into 2024, that is what's going to tell us. Do we have the self-control?
00:49:13.200 Do we have the poise? Do we have the confidence and clarity of vision to take our country back,
00:49:17.980 or has the left already won? I'm Michael Knowles. This is The Michael Knowles Show. See you tomorrow.
