The Michael Knowles Show - Ep. 993 - The New York Times Attacked Me

00:00:00.000 I thought it couldn't get any better. I thought that the Elon Musk takeover could not get any

00:00:07.260 more delightful. And then, and then Politico reported that it made Twitter's top lawyer

00:00:14.800 cry, cry. And I love that. I think that is just terrific. The Viaha Gatti is in charge of Twitter's

00:00:25.380 trust and safety, legal and public policy functions. She is reportedly considered the

00:00:31.380 moral authority at Twitter. She's the executive in charge of banning dangerous speech. She's the

00:00:38.800 person credited with banning President Trump. She is the person who reportedly took it upon herself

00:00:44.800 to kick the duly elected sitting president of the United States out of the public square in our

00:00:49.960 allegedly constitutional republic because she's a big lib and didn't like what he said. 1.00

00:00:54.100 This woman, this woman, an actual threat to our Republican system of government, 1.00

00:01:00.440 cried because Elon Musk said that he was going to let conservatives speak freely again. And I love

00:01:08.320 that. I would prefer that my opponents not cry. I would prefer that they come to their senses and

00:01:16.400 cut out all of their devious schemes and tricks and see things the right way. But if they're not going

00:01:22.260 to do that, if they are going to insist on screwing up our country and upending our traditions and

00:01:27.960 gobbling up all the power for themselves illegitimately, then I do want them to cry.

00:01:32.640 I want them to cry a corrective cry, like a little baby cries a corrective cry when he's done something 0.93

00:01:38.820 wrong and mommy and daddy, they don't want to hear him cry, but they got to let him cry it out so that

00:01:42.700 he learns his lesson. Okay. That's how I want the libs to cry. I don't want them to cry without reason. 0.96

00:01:48.320 By the way, a lot of conservatives right now are laughing because they say that the libs are

00:01:53.540 wailing over this Elon Musk takeover for no reason. That's not true. The libs have plenty of reason to

00:01:59.560 cry. And that is a good thing. If they're going to cry, I want them to cry with good reason. I want

00:02:04.920 them to cry because we have beaten them at something and a bad thing that they have tried to do and have

00:02:10.800 done successfully, they can do no longer. For the past several years, the libs have insisted that they

00:02:17.460 are not wielding big tech platforms as a political cudgel to silence the opposition and censor us all

00:02:22.740 into submission. They have said it's all in our heads. The de-platforming, the shadow banning,

00:02:28.620 the censoring of stories critical of Joe Biden weeks before the presidential election.

00:02:32.440 It's all in your heads. It's not happening. Don't believe your lying eyes. Well, if it's all in our

00:02:39.340 heads, then why are you so upset that the new owner of Twitter is promising to undo all of that,

00:02:45.580 is promising free speech for conservatives. Conservatives are not reveling in this week's

00:02:51.280 leftist tears merely because, to quote Conan the Barbarian, what is best in life is to crush your

00:02:57.360 enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of their women. That is also very

00:03:01.580 fun. But the reason that we are, at least the reason that I am reveling in the leftist tears this

00:03:06.840 week is because every one of those tears is an admission that we were right all along about how the

00:03:13.100 libs were censoring us and that there is now strong reason to believe that they are not going to get

00:03:18.820 away with it any longer. I'm Michael Knowles. This is The Michael Knowles Show.

00:03:30.020 Welcome back to the show. My favorite comment yesterday is from PlayByEar, who says,

00:03:34.820 there is a pretty good argument for those losing their minds over the Twitter thing. I've heard it

00:03:38.700 somewhere before, but if they don't like it, they can create their own platform. That's true. Go buy

00:03:43.320 your own Twitter. Come on, libs, go buy your own Twitter. I really like that comment because it's 0.98

00:03:47.120 pointing out there, there is a good argument. There's a good argument for them to cry. We can

00:03:50.960 throw their argument back in their face and we can clear the air out of all, after all this gas

00:03:55.080 lighting, after all this deception, we can clear the air and see what is really going on. When you want

00:04:01.260 to know what's really going on, not just on Twitter, but in your home, you got to check out Ring.

00:04:06.180 Right now, head over to ring.com slash Knowles. You know about Ring's video doorbell. I've told

00:04:12.480 you about it for five, six years now, probably. You can see and speak to whoever is at your door,

00:04:16.380 whether you're in the house, whether you're at your office, whether you're on a beach on the

00:04:19.420 other side of the world. You know about Ring's award-winning home security system, Ring Alarm.

00:04:24.060 I've told you about that. Now you got to go pro. You got to go pro because what Ring realized

00:04:29.340 something that as far as I can tell, no other security company realized. Ring realized that you live

00:04:34.760 your life in the physical world. So you got to protect the physical world, your windows and your

00:04:38.280 doors and all that. But you also live a lot of your life, increasingly so, in the digital world.

00:04:43.480 So you got to protect your digital world too. So the Ring Alarm Pro will protect your Wi-Fi router

00:04:47.760 as well. So you're protecting your data, you're protecting your family and your stuff, not just

00:04:53.720 from the bad guys, but from freeze, fire, flood. It's phenomenal. Go do it. Be like me, become a pro.

00:04:58.960 You may not have known it, but Ring's got that professional monitoring that you can use. So head

00:05:04.960 on over right now to ring.com slash Knowles. That is ring.com slash Knowles. Whenever the left

00:05:12.860 loses an argument, whenever the left gets found out one of their devious schemes and tricks, what's the

00:05:19.480 first thing they do? When they have nothing left to legitimately argue, they accuse their opponents

00:05:25.320 of racism. When Ann Coulter told me this when I was a college student, when a leftist calls you a

00:05:30.520 racist, you know that you've won the argument. Sunny Hostin, who is one of the minor characters over at

00:05:36.740 The View, she launched this argument just yesterday. She said that Elon Musk's takeover of Twitter,

00:05:45.240 all it's really about is about giving special treatment to straight white men.

00:05:51.940 On Twitter, it is predominantly straight white men. So when Elon Musk says, wow,

00:05:58.700 this is about free speech, it seems to me that it's about free speech of straight white men. And so 0.70

00:06:06.320 let them have it. Let them just go at it. I enjoyed the block button on Twitter. I think it has a real

00:06:14.780 outsized influence in our world because politicians and celebrities are on it.

00:06:20.000 Now, I think this is no way to talk about Elon Musk, the most prominent African American in the

00:06:26.260 world. I mean, that's the first incoherence that we have. I think the claim that she's making is not

00:06:31.160 true. White men, not even straight white men, just white men in general are something like, what,

00:06:37.600 30% of America and significantly less than 30% of the world population. So I just don't think it's,

00:06:44.140 and then how many of them are straight. I don't, so I just don't think it's true that the majority

00:06:49.480 of Twitter users are straight white men, but let's say that they were. Sunny Hostin is actually saying

00:06:56.860 the quiet part out loud, I guess. She's saying, I don't want straight white men to be able to speak.

00:07:01.600 I want other groups to be able to speak, but I don't like straight white men. I want to censor 0.99

00:07:06.840 straight white men. I don't want them to have a voice in our republic. Well, too bad, lady. I say 1.00

00:07:12.740 this as a straight swarthy man, a straight, slightly tan man. We're going to speak. We're

00:07:19.340 going to speak. And I'm sorry that that bothers you. I'm sorry that you don't like straight white 0.52

00:07:23.320 men. I'm sorry that you want to ostracize us and kick us out of society, but we're not going to do

00:07:27.380 it. We're not, I'm sorry. We're not going to go along with that. We're going to speak. We're going

00:07:30.880 to say our mind. And if you don't like it, that's to take it up with the African American 1.00

00:07:35.400 new owner of Twitter, because we're, we're not going to, we're not going to put up with that

00:07:41.040 kind of stuff. We're not, we're not going to put up with a new radical caste system foisted upon us

00:07:47.620 by the woke lunatics that say that if you're, if you're not what, if you're not LGBT, if you're not

00:07:56.840 a woman or any of the other 75 genders that aren't man, if you're, if you're not a POC, 0.99

00:08:06.600 then you're, you're not allowed to speak. We're not going to do that. I'm already exercising my

00:08:10.480 newfound freedom of speech on Twitter. I just was sending out some test tweets the other day

00:08:15.740 to test the algorithm. I pointed out various things such as transgenderism is not a real category of

00:08:21.920 being. That's obviously true. I pointed out on Twitter that ivermectin is a wonder drug and

00:08:27.620 everyone called it a wonder drug until a couple of years ago when it became a political cudgel and

00:08:31.620 the left denied that. And then, then I pointed out something that I think is obvious. I said the 2020

00:08:39.560 presidential election was obviously rigged. Good news is none of those tweets were taken down.

00:08:45.360 They're not being suppressed. We're seeing lots of extra engagement for conservatives,

00:08:48.120 but some people got very upset at my free speech. That would be the New York Times.

00:08:53.200 The New York Times took issue with your beloved host on Twitter. Conservatives celebrate and 1.00

00:09:00.300 progressives cringe about Musk's ownership of Twitter. When Elon Musk reached a deal to buy

00:09:05.400 Twitter on Monday, he promised to return free speech and debate to the platform saying it was

00:09:09.200 the bedrock of a functioning democracy. And then just a few paragraphs later, we have

00:09:14.500 this quote. They say, oh, here it is. Michael Knowles, a conservative podcaster, repeated on

00:09:23.500 Monday the false claim that the 2020 presidential election was obviously rigged, receiving more than

00:09:28.860 70,000 likes. Now, I agree in principle with the New York Times here. We cannot allow this kind of

00:09:35.100 dangerous misinformation to be allowed on Twitter. We can't tolerate that, okay? We cannot tolerate the

00:09:41.940 New York Times spreading dangerous misinformation because they say that my claim is a false claim,

00:09:47.500 but my claim is not a false claim. My claim is an obviously true claim. The 2020 presidential election

00:09:52.760 was rigged. They rigged the whole damn thing. It's just, it's so obvious. Twitter specifically rigged it

00:09:59.560 actually because Twitter in the weeks before the presidential election censored damning and damaging

00:10:06.360 information about the Biden family, about corruption because of Hunter Biden's laptop. It was a story

00:10:11.280 broken by the New York Post and Twitter shut it down. You couldn't even privately message it. Forget about

00:10:15.520 publicly post it. Facebook did the same thing. Google did the same thing. And then a poll taken after the

00:10:19.800 election said that 12% of Biden voters would not have voted for him if they had seen that news story.

00:10:24.800 So they themselves rigged it, first of all, and then they all admitted that it was a true story a year later.

00:10:31.560 We know that the Democrat operatives rigged the election by changing all the election rules in the weeks and

00:10:37.480 months right beforehand. We know that in Pennsylvania, they violated the state constitution.

00:10:42.720 We now have a ruling to that effect that they violated the state constitution by pushing widespread

00:10:46.540 mail-in ballots. You would have to be so stupid or so dishonest. I'm not sure which it is at the New

00:10:53.600 York Times. I lean more toward the latter, but it might be the former. You would have to be

00:10:58.260 unfathomably stupid or ignorant to pretend that that were not the case. So you have my solemn vow.

00:11:03.960 I have not talked to Mr. Musk. He has not approached me yet. If I am named CEO of Twitter,

00:11:09.900 then I will ban the New York Times before I finish my HR orientation. You have my promise.

00:11:16.440 Because look, I'm all for free speech, okay? But I agree with the libs and I agree with many

00:11:20.600 conservatives and I agree with Elon Musk that there are limits. We need to have some basic limits here,

00:11:25.800 some basic standards. And the New York Times has obviously fallen afoul of that.

00:11:30.200 The New York Times is one of the biggest purveyors of misinformation in this country.

00:11:35.360 Look at the New York Times bestseller list. A certain book called Speechless about this very

00:11:39.040 topic written by yours truly that came out last year was the number one bestselling book in the

00:11:42.860 country by a country mile. It outsold the number one on the New York Times list by 40% without bulk

00:11:47.860 buys, without any shenanigans. And the Times didn't seem to know my name. The Times only knows my name

00:11:52.600 when they want to attack me. So I think, look, I think it's just really, really important that we stop this

00:11:58.040 kind of misinformation. And as we reconfigure the limits to speech and moderation and all these

00:12:05.160 things, I think we've got to throw out the Times. I think it's very, it's important. It's important

00:12:09.700 for our functioning democracy. When you want to protect not just your country from, but also your

00:13:31.180 be sure with the shield. Speaking of election rigging, there's a host on MSNBC, Ari Melber,

00:13:38.180 who, he went on a rant on his fears and the liberals' fears about the Musk takeover of Twitter

00:13:45.740 that I cannot believe was anything but parody. I cannot believe that this man and that the liberals

00:13:57.060 are so unselfaware, so oblivious to their own tactics that they would make this argument earnestly.

00:14:03.800 If you own all of Twitter or Facebook or what have you, you don't have to explain yourself.

00:14:09.320 You don't even have to be transparent. You could secretly ban one party's candidate or all of its

00:14:14.360 candidates, all of its nominees, or you could just secretly turn down the reach of their stuff and

00:14:19.960 turn up the reach of something else, and the rest of us might not even find out about it till

00:14:23.920 after the election. Elon Musk says this is all to help people because he is just a free speech,

00:14:30.740 philosophically clear, open-minded helper.

00:14:36.580 By golly, if the conservatives get control of Twitter, they might do exactly what we have

00:14:42.820 actually done for years. That's the argument he's making. I don't know that he's being sincere here.

00:14:48.140 Again, it's this argument of, are these people just extremely stupid or extremely dishonest?

00:14:53.740 And I tend to think, when you think of the New York Times, generally the people who work at the

00:14:57.480 New York Times, have a pretty high IQ. They've had at least a relatively elite education. And so I

00:15:05.160 assume they're just very dishonest rather than very stupid. With MSNBC, I don't know. It's anybody's

00:15:10.140 guess. If he's self-aware here, if he knows that he is just describing exactly what the liberals have

00:15:17.340 been doing for years, then good on him. This is a pretty funny way to subvert the medium, but I don't

00:15:22.240 think that's what he's doing. I think, I think he actually doesn't get it. If, if some, if a small

00:15:28.440 group of people own the means of communication in a republic, why they could use that to ban a 0.75

00:15:35.760 political candidate. Oh, you mean like the duly elected sitting president? You mean Donald Trump?

00:15:39.880 Well, he was actually the president of the United States. They can just kick him out of the public

00:15:43.020 square. You don't say. They could turn down the reach of certain users and up the reach of others.

00:15:48.860 Oh, you mean like shadow banning or outright deplatforming? There has been something that's

00:15:52.940 gone on since the news of the Musk announcement came out, which is that conservative accounts are

00:15:57.880 exploding on Twitter and liberal accounts. There are even reports that they're losing followers.

00:16:02.420 I've gained, I think, 50,000 followers in the last two or three days. I don't know what that is.

00:16:08.960 That could be, that could be a good thing. It could be that they've taken their, their thumbs off the

00:16:14.320 scales on Twitter and they're actually allowing greater free speech now out of fear of what's

00:16:18.840 going on and that Musk could come in and find all of these nefarious dealings. They could be just

00:16:23.860 shredding documents at the Twitter HQ and letting their thumb off the scales. Or they could, Jeremy

00:16:29.460 Boring made this point, the God King of the Daily Wire. They could be attempting to sabotage Elon Musk

00:16:33.980 by flooding it with bots or something. I tend to think it's more the former only because since this

00:16:39.920 news came out, I'm getting a ton more engagement, not just with random anonymous accounts, but with big

00:16:44.420 blue checkmark accounts. I tend to think this is more having to do with Twitter stopping the censorship

00:16:51.580 and stopping the shadow banning and stopping the manipulation of the algorithm. Stopping doing the

00:16:57.860 things that this MSNBC host is so afraid the Republicans might do hypothetically, or the

00:17:02.600 conservatives might do hypothetically, or just this eccentric billionaire who I'm not even sure is a

00:17:06.360 might do hypothetically. This is so delightful. This is just so absolutely delightful. Look at

00:17:18.300 Senator Ed Markey. Senator Ed Markey is a Democrat. He tweeted out yesterday, quote, Elon Musk and a

00:17:24.360 handful of billionaires now have dangerous influence over the most powerful online platforms. They can't

00:17:28.300 be trusted and self-regulation has failed. We must pass laws to protect privacy and promote

00:17:32.880 algorithmic justice. That's a new one for internet users, especially for kids.

00:17:38.880 Hey, Ed, where were you a week ago or six months ago or a year ago or two years ago when we were

00:17:47.420 raising all of these issues? Oh, you loved it because it was your guys who were controlling it.

00:17:53.820 It was your small handful of liberal oligarchs who were controlling that and manipulating the algorithm 0.99

00:18:01.680 and manipulating the elections and rigging the 2020 presidential election. Let's just call it like we

00:18:06.020 see it. But now, now that a guy who just isn't a leftist is controlling just one of the platforms and

00:18:14.660 the smallest platform at that. Now we need to send in the Marines. Now we've got a really, really big

00:18:19.320 problem. Algorithmic justice. What a stupid phrase. We hear about algorithmic justice, economic

00:18:27.680 justice. Reproductive justice was a phrase coined by failed presidential candidate Julian Castro to 1.00

00:18:34.480 refer to the justice to kill babies or something. Justice is justice. Justice is the persistent will

00:18:41.900 to give to everyone what he is due. Okay, that's what justice is and it reveals itself in every aspect of

00:18:50.820 society, in every aspect of our lives. And we've seen a perversion of justice by the left in every

00:18:59.200 aspect of, we talk about the leftist perversion of criminal justice. The real version of justice is

00:19:04.960 punish criminals and protect victims. The leftist version of justice is ignore victims and let criminals

00:19:10.980 off the hook. Algorithmic justice, according to conservatives, is within the bounds of the law,

00:19:18.360 let people see the news that they want to see. Let people say the things that they want to say.

00:19:23.820 Again, within the bounds of the law. I'm not saying they can break the law, but within the bounds of

00:19:27.400 that, don't censor people to tilt the scales for one political party over another. That's justice.

00:19:32.620 What he means by algorithmic justice is just injustice. That's all he's talking about.

00:19:37.520 This is a great perspective on free speech from Elon Musk. Every day that Musk drips more information

00:19:44.340 about what he's thinking about the future of Twitter, the better I feel about it.

00:19:49.840 Musk tweeted out, he said, the extreme antibody reaction from those who fear free speech says it

00:19:54.940 all. But what does he mean by free speech? Well, he explains. He says, by free speech, I simply mean

00:20:00.840 that which matches the law. I am against censorship that goes far beyond the law. If people want less

00:20:07.660 free speech, they will ask government to pass laws to that effect. Therefore, going beyond the law is

00:20:12.840 contrary to the will of the people. This is basically a good explanation of free speech.

00:20:18.300 I wrote this book, Speechless, Controlling Words, Controlling Minds, completely snubbed by

00:20:21.880 the New York Times, but still number one national bestseller, coming out in paperback in a month or

00:20:25.300 two. My argument there is not an argument for free speech absolutism. I know a lot of conservatives

00:20:31.160 make that argument. That's not what I'm arguing. I think that's ahistorical. I don't think that has

00:20:35.080 anything to do with the founding era or the actual history of free speech in our country or anywhere else

00:20:39.980 for that matter. There are always going to be limits. The question is, what are those limits?

00:20:44.180 What are those standards? We have had plenty of them in American history. Standards against obscenity,

00:20:50.160 standards against direct threats, against fighting words. A lot of those have been watered down by a

00:20:54.360 lunatic radical politicians and judges over the past 30, 40, 50 years. But what Elon is saying is,

00:21:02.060 look, we in the political community set the bounds of speech and then these extremely influential

00:21:07.820 social media platforms, which control the flow of information around our public square,

00:21:12.400 they need to abide by the law. And they really shouldn't go much further than that.

00:21:16.640 There was a good piece yesterday in Compact Magazine by Curtis Yarvin over what the future

00:21:21.400 of Twitter looks like. Twitter does have to engage in certain moderation. What do they mean by moderation?

00:21:28.920 Well, there's moderation. There's, they've got to protect, they've got, they do engage in some

00:21:35.380 censorship. They have got to curate certain feeds. They've got to recommend certain things. I mean,

00:21:41.260 this just goes with the social platform. The problem with the moderation practices of Twitter

00:21:46.600 is not that they're moderating things. It's that they're secretly censoring things and calling it

00:21:51.140 moderation. Yarvin has a great description of the difference between censorship and moderation.

00:21:56.240 Moderation is preventing you from seeing things you don't want to see. Censorship is preventing you

00:22:02.720 from seeing things that you do want to see. That's the difference. Any platform, any civilized

00:22:08.260 institution is going to have some moderation. When we're hanging out in mixed company, I don't think

00:22:14.140 that we should talk like sailors. I don't think it's right to use that sort of language around women, 0.97

00:22:18.680 for instance. Or I don't think it's right if you're on a nice, wholesome platform to have porn

00:22:24.540 everywhere. I don't want to see porn all over Twitter. I hope they moderate that. I don't think

00:22:28.860 we should have snuff films on Twitter, right? That would be just enforcing the law. You've got to

00:22:34.700 enforce the law. But what you need is transparency. And what you need is everyone to know the rules.

00:22:42.300 And you need the political community to be able to set those rules. And the fact that Elon Musk gets

00:22:46.360 it is so terrific. What's funny is they're talking about Elon's takeover as though it's going to get

00:22:52.460 rid of all the rules on Twitter. That was Brian Stelter's stupid point two days ago. He said,

00:22:56.100 does anyone want to go to a party where there are no rules? No, that's not what we're talking about

00:22:59.300 here. In fact, when it gets down to the real nuts and bolts, proposals, concrete proposals that

00:23:05.420 Elon Musk has made for Twitter, the only thing he's proposed is actually tightening up speech

00:23:10.680 restrictions. He's saying we have to get rid of anonymous accounts. He's saying we need to get rid

00:23:14.400 of the bots. He's saying we need to have a little more accountability. We need people to verify

00:23:18.020 their identity. He's not just talking about opening the floodgates. He's saying, no, we've got to get

00:23:23.760 a handle on this and bring it more in line with the American law and the American tradition and stop

00:23:28.540 booting half the country out of the public square. Absolutely the right thing to do.

00:23:35.420 Now, one way to protect your political community, especially during hyperinflation,

00:23:40.040 is to go look at Birch Gold. Right now, text Knowles to 989898. Do not miss a second. Do it right now.

00:23:48.300 Inflation is spiking. It's at 7% thanks to Joe Biden's policies. The paper money in your wallet

00:23:54.200 is losing value fast and Russia's invasion of Ukraine has worsened the market's decline.

00:24:00.220 Today, an ounce of gold is worth $1,900. It was worth about $300 an ounce in 2000.

00:24:06.620 I have been telling you for years, you can buy gold from Birch Gold, the guys that I trust.

00:24:11.940 It's your hedge against inflation. Well, did you know there's another way to hedge against inflation?

00:24:15.640 You can get silver from Birch Gold. Silver is also considered real money. Historically speaking,

00:24:20.940 it is extremely undervalued right now. It's an industrial metal that is in high demand for

00:24:25.460 everything from electric cars to solar panels. Demand is only going to rise. And some analysts

00:24:30.380 say that there is an unusual dislocation in price that may present very real opportunities for silver

00:24:35.920 to rally over the next two years. Regardless, silver, like gold, is never going to zero.

00:24:40.720 The American dollar, well, it's currently going into the toilet. So you've got to call Birch Gold.

00:24:46.440 They're the only company I trust. Do not wait. Start diversifying. Text Knowles,

00:24:50.760 K-N-A-W-L-E-S, to 989898 to get a free info kit on buying gold or silver in a tax-sheltered account.

00:26:19.820 For the past couple of years, it's been tricky to find information about Joe Biden's corruption

00:26:36.940 because sometimes our social media oligarchs just outright censor it. A lot of times it's

00:26:41.620 suppressed. It's hard to find it. Got one number for you, 5.2 million. $5.2 million. That is the

00:26:52.380 discrepancy on Joe Biden's financial reports. Joe Biden always styled himself the poorest member

00:26:59.340 of the Senate. That guy's been in politics his whole life. He's just been taking a government

00:27:03.260 salary his whole life. That's why he's not a millionaire like his counterparts in the Senate.

00:27:07.560 But now Joe Biden very much is a millionaire. And he's made money from his government salary.

00:27:13.320 He's made money from books. He's made money from speeches. Okay. But there's $5.2 million

00:27:20.720 that have gone unaccounted for. We only know about this because of Hunter Biden's laptop,

00:27:28.140 which the oligarchic media suppressed. I'm talking about the establishment news media,

00:27:33.700 and I'm talking about the social media. They suppressed that information.

00:27:37.560 But we got it anyway. And when you look down at some of Hunter's spreadsheets of his financial

00:27:44.840 affairs, you'll notice that there is $28,000 in legal fees for the restructuring of Hunter Biden's

00:27:52.480 joint venture with the Chinese Communist Party-controlled Bank of China. $28,000 in legal fees.

00:28:00.040 These legal fees were paid by Joe Biden. Now, why would Joe Biden pay Hunter's legal fees?

00:28:07.680 Well, maybe he's just a good father. I thought Hunter Biden had plenty of money. I think in one

00:28:11.180 of his videos where he's talking with a hooker and was recording himself for some creepy reason,

00:28:15.180 he talked about how he made about a gazillion dollars a year. So you think Hunter could pay

00:28:18.980 his own legal fees, but he didn't. Joe apparently paid some of his legal fees. And why would that be?

00:28:23.180 Well, because other documents in the Hunter Biden laptop suggest that Joe Biden was making money off

00:28:29.680 of Hunter's business transactions. Hunter's business transactions that were peddling his father's

00:28:34.080 influence in the government with hostile foreign powers, with some that are not hostile, or we've

00:28:39.360 had a strange relationship with like Ukraine, but some that are hostile foreign powers like China.

00:28:45.440 And then you look at the discrepancy on Biden's financial reports. Daily Mail's analysis of this

00:28:52.780 shows $5.2 million in unexplained income for Joe. Huh? That seems like the sort of thing we should

00:29:02.420 maybe investigate. That's the sort of thing that I wish we knew about before the 2020 presidential

00:29:07.240 election. That's the sort of thing that would have gotten maybe 12% of Biden's voters not to vote for

00:29:12.660 him. And that's not even counting all the dead people who voted for him. That's just the living

00:29:16.020 people who voted for him. So that would have swung the presidential election without question.

00:29:20.140 What does the White House have? They must have a good explanation, right? One, they've known about

00:29:24.460 this for a long time. Two, they're going to just call it misinformation and Republican agitprop. So

00:29:29.160 okay, Jen Psaki, White House press secretary. How do you explain all of the strange Joe Biden business

00:29:36.560 dealings? How do you explain that one of Hunter Biden's business partners came to the White House to

00:29:40.540 meet with Vice President Joe Biden during the Obama administration? On Hunter Biden, the New York

00:29:46.960 Post is reporting, looking at White House visitor logs. There were 19 visits to the White House while

00:29:51.860 the president was vice president by Hunter Biden's business partner, including one with the vice

00:29:56.520 president. Can you help us understand why that business partner had access and what those meetings

00:30:00.880 were about? I don't have any information on that. I'm happy to check and see if we have any more

00:30:05.280 comment. No, they don't have any information. Sorry. Whoops. This is really damning. It's not like they

00:30:11.760 didn't know about this. This has been a major issue. This has probably been the biggest weakness

00:30:16.320 for Joe Biden since before he was elected president. And everyone knows about it. It's on the White House

00:30:21.980 visitor logs. They've known about this for years. If there were any way to spin this into anything other

00:30:30.700 than what it obviously is, which is a pay for play, corrupt, high level, multimillion dollar

00:30:37.880 corruption scheme involving the Chinese government, involving hostile foreign powers and Joe Biden,

00:30:44.320 if it were anything other than that, they would have an excuse and they don't. And so she punts 0.97

00:30:50.200 and we're going to have to circle back and then they're just going to avoid the question as best they

00:30:55.100 can. Such rank corruption. You already had Joe Biden, not just on the ropes. He was, he was

00:31:03.380 completely underwater to mix metaphors. He's, he's losing on the economy. He's losing on inflation.

00:31:07.960 He's losing on immigration. He's losing on foreign policy. He's losing on energy. He's losing on COVID.

00:31:13.860 He's, he's losing on everything. People don't have any confidence in his ability to govern. But the,

00:31:20.020 the one thing that Biden brought was that he's just a return to normal. He's just good old,

00:31:25.820 good old Scranton Joe. We all, we know good old uncle Joe, that mean old Donald Trump. He's a crook.

00:31:32.180 He's corrupt. He's mean. He's, he's got a bad character, but Joe, he's got a really good

00:31:35.900 character, right? No, no, he doesn't. He's obviously a crook. He's obviously a very corrupt

00:31:43.820 man who has been in Washington way too long and who has sold out his influence in the American

00:31:50.020 government to make a quick buck. Not just for his kid who made a lot of quick bucks, but apparently

00:31:54.920 for himself too, unless they can come up with any way to explain $5.2 million, unless they can find out

00:32:00.720 any way to explain 19 visits by Hunter Biden's business partner to the white house when,

00:32:05.260 when Joe was vice president. And so what do they do? The only thing Democrats can do right now

00:32:10.920 is focus on Donald Trump. The only thing they can do is focus on the guy who hasn't been president

00:32:16.800 in a year and a half. Chuck Schumer now, he was asked a question about how are we going to deal

00:32:21.120 with inflation? Americans going to the gas pump. Americans going to a grocery store. They can't 0.97

00:32:25.520 afford huge surges, 40 year highs in inflation. What are you going to do? This is a midterm election

00:32:30.080 year. Come on, Chuck, tell me how you're going to fix it. Here's his answer. Blame Trump.

00:32:33.940 If you want to get rid of inflation, the only way to do it is to undo a lot of the Trump tax cuts and

00:32:41.120 raise rates. No Republican is ever going to do that. So the only way to get rid of inflation

00:32:45.460 is through reconciliation. The only way to get rid of inflation is by undoing the tax cuts from five

00:32:53.340 years ago. That's your best explanation of the record high inflation that we're facing right now

00:33:01.860 is Trump did it five years ago. And then it just sort of laid dormant for four and a half or five

00:33:09.920 years. And then isn't it just Joe's bad luck that that inflation just sprung up? So the grain of

00:33:17.700 potential hypothetical truth in what Schumer said is, theoretically, you could try to curb inflation

00:33:25.000 by raising taxes. Because when you raise taxes, you're taking money away from people. And when

00:33:29.820 you take money away from people, they have less money to spend on consumer goods. And if they have

00:33:33.280 less money to spend on consumer goods, then the demand will decrease. And theoretically, maybe the

00:33:37.620 prices should stop soaring. Now, the real demand for those goods won't actually decrease, but the

00:33:42.700 ability of people to pay for them will decrease. So maybe theoretically, you could stop that.

00:33:47.020 Although a lot of more right wing economists would say, no, actually, you should cut taxes.

00:33:52.160 And then this is going to lead to such a surge in productivity that you can deal with inflation

00:33:55.280 that way. Regardless, it's a completely bogus argument here from Schumer, because what are the

00:34:00.180 real drivers of inflation? Okay, so we got his version is it's tax cuts from five years ago.

00:34:05.980 Here are some maybe some other culprits. The Democrats insisting on recklessly printing record

00:34:13.720 levels of money for years, just printing money and giving it away to people. That might be what

00:34:17.720 the Democrats insisting and Republicans acquiescing, unfortunately, to shutting down the country for

00:34:22.240 a couple of years. That might have something to do with it. The war in Ukraine that Vladimir

00:34:27.980 Zelensky, leader of Ukraine, admits was caused, especially by Joe Biden taking the sanctions off of

00:34:35.780 Vladimir Putin's oil pipeline. That could be it. The stupid energy policy, which is making America

00:34:42.280 reliant on foreign oil so that when wars break out in Europe, for instance, the oil prices are going

00:34:46.680 to go through the roof. That's going to drive inflation. All of those things would seem to be

00:34:50.180 more immediate and egregious culprits of inflation than some tax cuts five years ago. But furthermore,

00:34:56.540 if Schumer even wanted to make the tax cut argument, then the argument would be we need to take money

00:35:01.920 out of the economy. We've got to take that money out of the economy so people have less money to spend 0.99

00:35:06.420 so that maybe prices will stop going through the roof. So if that's the case, why are Democrats

00:35:10.760 pushing to forgive student loans? Why are the Democrats on Capitol Hill and Joe Biden pushing

00:35:15.260 to forgive student loans or to put a pause on student loan payments? All that's going to do

00:35:19.600 is inject more money into the economy. So even by the logic, the really poor logic that Schumer's

00:35:25.200 trying to advance here, his argument fails. Because at the same time that he's saying we need

00:35:29.180 to take money out of the economy, he's trying to pay off his base by saying, no, we're going to give

00:35:33.140 you guys, young, liberal, college-educated people with lots of debt, we're going to just give you more

00:35:38.960 money to spend. Spend, spend, spend. Not going to do anything for inflation. It's just completely

00:35:44.040 weak. Now, what is Trump saying about all this? We don't really know because Trump's not back on

00:35:50.160 Twitter. I think what we were all hoping for was Elon Musk takes Twitter. It breaks up the lock on

00:35:59.460 conservative speech. The floodgates open. We can start talking about Joe Biden's corruption. We can start

00:36:05.660 talking about how men aren't women. We can start talking about how we were lied to by the public

00:36:09.280 health authorities for the past two years. We can start talking about all those things.

00:36:13.540 But what we were really waiting for were those juicy, spicy Trump tweets, at least for me. I want

00:36:19.260 to see the Trump tweets. They're really, really funny. The man is a poet. I'm not being hyperbolic.

00:36:26.540 He is a poet in the medium of Twitter. He knows how to use words in the funniest, punchiest way

00:36:33.340 in that medium. And I just want to see the tweets again. The fake tweet press releases are not doing

00:36:38.480 it for me. I need the tweets. And yet Trump has said he's not going back to Twitter because Trump

00:36:44.020 has his own social media platform called Truth Social. And not a lot of people are using it right

00:36:48.660 now, but he's gone in and he's going to stick with that platform. And he doesn't want to reward

00:36:52.380 Twitter. So he's not going to go back to them after they dissed him and kicked him off.

00:36:55.900 Okay. I am really sad about this. But for right now, it actually might be the best thing for our

00:37:05.920 country that Trump is not on Twitter at this very moment. Because the minute Trump gets back on

00:37:11.480 Twitter, everything is going to be about Trump again. And right now, the Democrats are losing

00:37:17.100 so badly on every single front. And we're in a midterm election year. I think it would be much

00:37:23.060 better to keep all the focus on the Democrats and all the focus on Joe Biden and the failing

00:37:28.340 Democrats on Capitol Hill. This is a personal sacrifice that I am willing to make so that the

00:37:34.780 Democrats lose a little bit more of their power in November. I'm not convinced that Trump won't come

00:37:40.820 back onto Twitter before the presidential election, especially if he's considering running. I just bet he's

00:37:46.640 going to have to go back onto Twitter and then it's going to be about Trump again. And some people

00:37:49.980 don't even want that to happen. I sort of think, look, he's got every right to run for president.

00:37:55.040 He's my favorite Republican president in my lifetime. You're going to have other candidates

00:37:58.880 out there. Ron DeSantis appears like he is going to be running for president. The leading senator right

00:38:04.220 now who could run would be Ted Cruz. I think that's pretty clear. Maybe Josh Hawley would run. I'm not

00:38:08.880 sure. Maybe Rand Paul. I don't know. There could be a lot of people running. Kristi Noem, the governor in

00:38:13.520 South Dakota might run. So if we're talking about a primary situation, then I guess everyone should put

00:38:19.100 themselves in the best position they can and duke it out and figure out who the best candidate is.

00:38:23.500 But for right now, there's no political goal achieved by Trump going back onto Twitter other

00:38:29.380 than the sheer delight and humor of it all. But I suspect that's something Democrats are actually

00:38:34.960 hoping for because when your opponent is hanging himself, you should not interrupt. When your opponent

00:38:42.360 is digging his own political grave, you should not stop him from doing that. And that's what the

00:38:47.160 Democrats are doing right now. Speaking of morbid things, and speaking of entertainment for that

00:38:53.040 matter, there's a clip I have to get to from Megan Fox. I haven't followed Megan Fox very closely. I

00:38:59.340 know she's a movie star. She's married to someone named Machine Gun Kelly. I don't know anything about

00:39:03.900 Machine Gun Kelly. The only thing I know about these two is that they are very popular entertainers

00:39:09.820 who are into really weird new age occult rituals and who drink each other's blood.

00:39:17.160 And they were like, oh, Machine Gun Kelly. And I like kind of knew the name, but didn't. So I'm like

00:39:21.700 Machine Gun Kelly. I like look it up. And I was like, oh, we're going to be in so much trouble because

00:39:27.080 he's literally like my exact physical type that I've been manifesting since I was four. I'm also four

00:39:33.080 years older than him. So I think I made him, my thoughts and intentions grew him into the person

00:39:39.480 that he is. Who knows what he would have looked like or been like if it wasn't for me. I guess to

00:39:44.120 drink each other's blood might mislead people or like people are imagining us with like goblets and

00:39:50.360 we're like Game of Thrones drinking each other's blood. It's just a few drops. But yes, we do consume

00:39:56.140 each other's blood on occasion for ritual purposes only. I had gotten to a point where I was like,

00:40:03.140 we need an adrenaline injection of God in this relationship. And so we went to Costa Rica and

00:40:10.760 we had Peruvian shamans who administered the ayahuasca. And we each went in with different

00:40:16.700 questions that we wanted the medicine to answer for us.

00:40:19.620 Everyone is making fun of Megyn Kelly and Megyn, no, not Megyn Kelly. That would be the strangest

00:40:28.340 mashup of those two. You have Megyn Fox and Machine Gun Kelly. What do you got Megyn Kelly? No, 0.51

00:40:31.860 not quite. Everyone's making fun of Megyn Fox and Machine Gun Kelly here because they're saying

00:40:35.920 really weird, trippy, hippy, dippy, new agey things. They are the norm in human history.

00:40:43.800 When Megyn Fox and Machine Gun Kelly say that they drink each other's blood and that Megyn Fox 0.93

00:40:51.880 manifested Machine Gun Kelly, manifesting is this new age term where you think that you can control

00:40:58.200 the universe by your thoughts. You think that you can bring God into submission and have him do your

00:41:03.540 will just by thinking it. It's a new age idea. It's taking the true idea that you should think

00:41:10.340 positively, you should have confidence, you should have hope. It's taking that and perverting it and

00:41:14.780 twisting it and making you believe that you are a God who can actually control all of the course of

00:41:20.320 events simply through your own telepathic powers or something. So she says, I manifested the development

00:41:25.700 of this man and I turned him into my lover. And for ritualistic purposes, we drink each other's blood.

00:41:32.460 And then we wanted an infusion of God in our relationship. So we went to Peru and did a bunch

00:41:37.620 of drugs and a weird shaman gave us a bunch of drugs and we did the drugs to figure out our life

00:41:43.620 together and our future and the universe, man. People are making fun of them as abnormal or weird

00:41:49.100 or kooky. They're not. This is the norm. This is the norm in human affairs. The only reason that we are

00:41:56.260 not accustomed to this stuff, though increasingly we are, is because of monotheism, is because the ancient

00:42:04.400 Israelites told the world about God. And they went through and they conquered all of the crazy pagans

00:42:14.920 along their way. And they established themselves in the Holy Land. And then a king and a savior was

00:42:21.720 born to the Jews and he saved the whole world. And the light of Christ spreads throughout the world.

00:42:29.480 And then even Islam, which Christians believe is just a Christian heresy. It's just a sort of 0.82

00:42:36.280 misinterpretation of what Christianity is. Muslims believe that it's the final revelation of God,

00:42:41.480 the same revelation that was made to the Jews and then through Christ, who they don't think is a savior,

00:42:46.080 but do think is a sort of prophet. Monotheism says, stop drinking each other's blood. Stop

00:42:55.480 taking a bunch of drugs in the desert. Stop believing that through shamans and witch doctors,

00:43:01.840 you can control the entire world. That's the aberration. That's the abnormal thing in world

00:43:08.720 history. But when you look at the Spanish conquistadors, when they came to the Americas,

00:43:15.820 you saw a bunch of Megan Foxes and Machine Gun Kellys doing weird cult rituals and drinking each

00:43:22.160 other's blood and having all sorts of weird sacrifices and cultic beliefs. When you look

00:43:27.980 at all the tribes in the Middle East before the advent of monotheism, this is what you saw.

00:43:33.320 All of the pagan religions in the Far East, that's what you saw. We are regressing. Okay, 1.00

00:43:42.460 we are regressing because of the West's rejection of the religion that made it, which is Christianity. 0.75

00:43:48.600 And when you don't believe in God, when you reject Christianity, it's not that you believe in

00:43:56.060 nothing. It's that you believe in everything. And so it is no coincidence that with the decline of

00:44:01.840 traditional religious practice in the West, you are seeing simultaneously the rise of really weird

00:44:07.700 stuff like the secret or new age or transgenderism for that matter, or the people who love the crystals,

00:44:16.480 or all of these weird, or astrology, or all of these weird practices. Because man is a fundamentally

00:44:24.000 religious being. When Megan Fox says that she needed an injection of God into her relationship,

00:44:29.640 she's speaking to an actual human desire. We do want something more. We want something more than

00:44:33.520 this physical world. And so how are you going to fill that? You can either fill that with weird,

00:44:37.580 superstitious, ultimately destructive, and I think pretty clearly demonic practices,

00:44:43.000 like drinking each other's blood, or you can fill it with the highest fulfillment of those things.

00:44:48.700 When Christians go to mass, to your church service on Sunday, and take the communion, 0.76

00:44:55.360 you are taking part in a sacrament that is a representation, and if you're Catholic, you believe

00:45:04.680 a true representation in that there is a transubstantiation of eating flesh and drinking blood.

00:45:10.700 It happens to be eating the flesh and drinking the blood of your savior. And all the modern 0.57

00:45:14.940 atheist, liberal, open-minded, free-thinking people, they say, that's so weird. That's so weird,

00:45:20.100 Christians. Oh my gosh, I can't believe that you think that you've got this sacrament where you're 1.00

00:45:24.300 eating the flesh and drinking the blood of God. Oh my goodness, what a crazy thing. Hey,

00:45:29.200 we're going to go over to Peru and do some ayahuasca with a shaman, because we're normal people.

00:45:33.900 We're not weird like you crazy Christians. Everybody's got to serve somebody, okay? And this is why I do

00:45:39.400 often bring politics back, not just to the culture, but ultimately to religion and theology.

00:45:44.240 Theology is faith-seeking understanding. It's not superstition, it's the opposite. It's applying

00:45:48.840 rigor and logic and reason to the natural religious longings that people have. Because

00:45:56.200 the more that we reject Christianity, the more that these very misguided liberals reject Christianity

00:46:02.620 as somehow unreasonable, though they never quite explain why it's unreasonable, but they just,

00:46:07.200 they have this prejudice against it and they say, oh, that's traditional, that's, we don't like that,

00:46:10.700 we're going to get rid of that. We're going to follow science with a capital S and a trademark

00:46:16.080 over the E. The more we're going to get really bizarre, kooky, superstitious pagan theories, such as 0.85

00:46:22.460 the American Academy of Pediatrics, which in its new guide on puberty is discussing girls with erections.

00:46:31.100 That's, that's the phrase. They've got a new guide on puberty called Eulogy, a puberty guide for

00:46:38.120 everybody. Targeted toward children ages nine through 13 years old, explaining how some girls 0.81

00:46:44.520 are actually boys and how girls can get erections and that's totally normal and totally fine.

00:46:49.320 And these people have the audacity to make fun of Christians and Jews and Muslims as superstitious.

00:46:54.740 That what, one thing that this conveys just on a political point is that you, you really can't

00:47:00.820 trust anything these modern leftist medical associations have to say. When they say, you

00:47:05.640 don't believe the science, you don't believe the CDC and the WHO and the American Pediatric Academy and,

00:47:11.800 you know, well, no, if they think that girls can get erections, then I don't trust anything they say 1.00

00:47:15.620 because they don't understand the most basic elements of human nature. So no, I don't trust them at

00:47:19.920 all. I trust a random blog I read on the internet much more than I trust these people

00:47:23.340 because these people are getting something fundamentally wrong that I know for a fact

00:47:27.140 is, is fundamentally wrong. This is the kind of weirdness that is going to enter into your

00:47:36.880 political society if you reject basic truths. We're going way, we are going so far down this path.

00:47:45.740 The, the only way out I think is to try to hold on to some grasp of the tradition, some grasp of

00:47:52.440 reality. Someone the other day pointed out that conservatives, they talk about free speech and

00:47:56.460 this, that, and the, all they really want is Christian nationalism. Christian nationalism is 0.61

00:48:00.620 a contradiction. I think it was Jen Rubin at the Washington Post. Christian nationalism is in many

00:48:04.920 ways a contradiction in terms because Christianity makes universal claims, lowercase c, Catholic claims

00:48:10.440 about the world. And so it, Christian nationalism is a conflicting sort of statement, but regardless,

00:48:16.720 okay, let's use the phrase Christian. What does that mean? We, American conservatives want Christian

00:48:19.740 standards and Christian traditions in society. And what's the alternative? Pumping eight-year-old 0.99

00:48:26.020 boys full of puberty blockers. That's the alternative. Sign me up for the Christian nation, 1.00

00:48:31.000 please. Hey, where do I get me some of that Christian nation? Which do you want? If we look 1.00

00:48:36.280 back at the actual practical application of these things, I think we're beginning to find out that the

00:48:42.860 people using their unfettered reason, the people using, they're just, they're inflicting their will on

00:48:47.200 society to undo everything we've come before, that has come before us. Those people are giving us

00:48:52.060 a society that is unrecognizable and ugly and something we don't desire. And now when we've got

00:48:56.020 a little free speech, we're allowed to say it and we're allowed to take our country back. I'm Michael
