Charlie Kirk Today | Michael Knowles: November 3, 2025 | Charlie Kirk Today | November 3, 2025
- Brought to you in part by the
- 00:00:00.790 --> 00:00:02.492
- International fellowship of christians and jews.
- 00:00:02.492 --> 00:00:14.871
- Andrew calvert here.
- 00:00:15.338 --> 00:00:16.406
- I'm, a little bit remote today, but, so, blake,
- 00:00:16.406 --> 00:00:21.444
- Why don't you kick things off and just set the set the table
- 00:00:21.444 --> 00:00:24.514
- On this filibuster discussion that's happening.
- 00:00:24.514 --> 00:00:27.250
- All right, so last night,
- 00:00:27.250 --> 00:00:29.085
- Trump trump sent a shot across the bow.
- 00:00:29.085 --> 00:00:32.555
- Yes. so we'll get to that first very quickly
- 00:00:32.555 --> 00:00:35.258
- I do want to flag something because
- 00:00:35.258 --> 00:00:36.893
- Charlie would be angry at us if we didn't.
- 00:00:36.893 --> 00:00:39.262
- There are elections next tuesday in new jersey
- 00:00:39.262 --> 00:00:42.398
- And in virginia. they are tough races.
- 00:00:42.398 --> 00:00:44.501
- They are racist.
- 00:00:44.501 --> 00:00:45.368
- To be honest. we are unlikely to win,
- 00:00:45.368 --> 00:00:46.903
- But we are going to try to win them.
- 00:00:46.903 --> 00:00:48.805
- We talked with cliff maloney the other day.
- 00:00:48.805 --> 00:00:50.607
- He said there were about, i think, 80,000 unreturned
- 00:00:50.607 --> 00:00:53.443
- Republican mail ballots in new jersey.
- 00:00:53.443 --> 00:00:56.279
- So if you're one of those people in new jersey
- 00:00:56.279 --> 00:00:57.914
- Who has one of those ballots and hasn't returned it,
- 00:00:57.914 --> 00:00:59.782
- Shut off the show, fill it out and turn it in.
- 00:00:59.782 --> 00:01:03.153
- Right now
- 00:01:03.153 --> 00:01:04.287
- In virginia, the last day to early vote is tomorrow.
- 00:01:04.287 --> 00:01:08.158
- So if you're in virginia and you're allowed to early
- 00:01:08.158 --> 00:01:10.493
- Vote and you haven't yet shut off this show,
- 00:01:10.493 --> 00:01:13.363
- Go to your county courthouse
- 00:01:13.363 --> 00:01:15.398
- Or wherever you're allowed to early vote and do it now.
- 00:01:15.398 --> 00:01:18.168
- Thank you very much.
- 00:01:18.168 --> 00:01:19.536
- We're going to flag that next monday,
- 00:01:19.536 --> 00:01:21.638
- And we'll be broadcast in the election results on tuesday.
- 00:01:21.638 --> 00:01:24.841
- All right.
- 00:01:25.141 --> 00:01:26.109
- Thank you for your attention to this matter.
- 00:01:26.109 --> 00:01:27.944
- Now just want to throw.
- 00:01:27.944 --> 00:01:28.878
- Throw this up. like, throw the throw.
- 00:01:28.878 --> 00:01:30.413
- 329.
- 00:01:30.413 --> 00:01:31.614
- This is the recent polling we got.
- 00:01:31.614 --> 00:01:34.551
- Cheryl is up by 11..
- 00:01:34.551 --> 00:01:38.288
- According to the latest polls.
- 00:01:38.288 --> 00:01:40.223
- This is from emerson college and jack rally.
- 00:01:40.223 --> 00:01:43.126
- So it's 49 to 48.
- 00:01:43.126 --> 00:01:45.094
- We got about 3% undecided.
- 00:01:45.094 --> 00:01:46.763
- But remember, there's a there's two
- 00:01:46.763 --> 00:01:48.798
- Little pieces of information
- 00:01:48.798 --> 00:01:49.899
- I want you guys to, to hold deep in your hearts
- 00:01:49.899 --> 00:01:53.503
- As you go out there and you seize the momentum.
- 00:01:53.503 --> 00:01:55.872
- Independence are backing
- 00:01:55.872 --> 00:01:58.808
- China rally by plus nine.
- 00:01:58.808 --> 00:02:01.277
- And here's another one.
- 00:02:01.277 --> 00:02:02.412
- If they if you are asked who do you support?
- 00:02:02.412 --> 00:02:05.748
- They'll say it one way, but if it when voters are asked
- 00:02:05.748 --> 00:02:08.751
- Who do they think their neighbors are voting for?
- 00:02:08.751 --> 00:02:11.688
- Guess what?
- 00:02:12.021 --> 00:02:12.622
- China rallies up by six.
- 00:02:12.622 --> 00:02:14.157
- Which is a very interesting way to pull this,
- 00:02:14.157 --> 00:02:16.159
- Because sometimes people will say, oh,
- 00:02:16.159 --> 00:02:18.161
- Of course i'm going democrat to a pollster.
- 00:02:18.161 --> 00:02:20.029
- But when they ask who your
- 00:02:20.029 --> 00:02:21.965
- Who do you think your friends and your families
- 00:02:21.965 --> 00:02:23.466
- And your coworkers, your neighbors are voting for,
- 00:02:23.466 --> 00:02:25.301
- To see china rally up?
- 00:02:25.301 --> 00:02:26.502
- Six is a very, very promising sign.
- 00:02:26.502 --> 00:02:29.272
- So keep the faith in new jersey.
- 00:02:29.272 --> 00:02:31.307
- All right.
- 00:02:31.307 --> 00:02:32.208
- So anyway, president trump's response.
- 00:02:32.208 --> 00:02:33.610
- So last night on truth social, he said this.
- 00:02:33.610 --> 00:02:36.613
- He had a pretty long post.
- 00:02:36.613 --> 00:02:37.513
- I'm not going to read the whole thing,
- 00:02:37.513 --> 00:02:38.781
- But he was saying,
- 00:02:38.781 --> 00:02:40.083
- You know, democrats have gone off the deep end.
- 00:02:40.083 --> 00:02:43.486
- They have trump derangement syndrome,
- 00:02:43.486 --> 00:02:44.787
- They have trillions of dollars, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
- 00:02:44.787 --> 00:02:46.122
- And then he says, it is time now, time for republicans
- 00:02:46.122 --> 00:02:49.158
- To play their trump card all caps
- 00:02:49.158 --> 00:02:52.128
- And go for what is called the nuclear option,
- 00:02:52.128 --> 00:02:54.864
- Get rid of the filibuster and get rid of it.
- 00:02:54.864 --> 00:02:57.934
- Now, never have the democrats fought so hard to do something,
- 00:02:57.934 --> 00:03:01.571
- Because they knew the tremendous strength
- 00:03:01.571 --> 00:03:03.206
- That terminating the filibuster would give them.
- 00:03:03.206 --> 00:03:06.276
- They want to substantially expand, pack
- 00:03:06.276 --> 00:03:09.112
- The us supreme court, make washington,
- 00:03:09.112 --> 00:03:10.847
- Dc and puerto rico states,
- 00:03:10.847 --> 00:03:12.515
- It goes on and on is actually quite the long thing.
- 00:03:12.515 --> 00:03:15.184
- And then he doubled down on that.
- 00:03:15.184 --> 00:03:17.787
- The democrats have gone stone cold crazy,
- 00:03:17.787 --> 00:03:21.491
- The choice is clear.
- 00:03:21.958 --> 00:03:23.192
- Initiate the nuclear option, get rid of the filibuster,
- 00:03:23.192 --> 00:03:27.230
- And make america great again.
- 00:03:27.230 --> 00:03:31.067
- Now, i would guess the senate is probably unlikely
- 00:03:31.067 --> 00:03:34.671
- To go for that,
- 00:03:34.671 --> 00:03:35.738
- But trump has a lot of power to pressure people.
- 00:03:35.738 --> 00:03:38.641
- And i think it's an interesting debate.
- 00:03:38.641 --> 00:03:40.343
- We were talking about this,
- 00:03:40.343 --> 00:03:41.678
- You know, should it be gone for and
- 00:03:41.678 --> 00:03:43.713
- My impulse and what i would tell charlie
- 00:03:44.580 --> 00:03:47.116
- If we would discuss
- 00:03:47.116 --> 00:03:48.251
- This is if you're going to get rid of the filibuster,
- 00:03:48.251 --> 00:03:51.254
- You've got to do it basically as a day.
- 00:03:51.254 --> 00:03:53.156
- One thing, they should have done it
- 00:03:53.156 --> 00:03:54.390
- The day trump took office, because you need to maximize
- 00:03:54.390 --> 00:03:58.127
- What you get out of it, and then you go in
- 00:03:58.127 --> 00:04:00.763
- Because there's all these things
- 00:04:00.763 --> 00:04:01.731
- We want to do that we can't do
- 00:04:01.731 --> 00:04:03.099
- Because you need 60 votes to do it.
- 00:04:03.099 --> 00:04:04.734
- Change our immigration laws, change environmental laws.
- 00:04:04.734 --> 00:04:07.337
- So it's easier to build things in america.
- 00:04:07.337 --> 00:04:10.573
- You know, change, change our budgeting process,
- 00:04:10.573 --> 00:04:13.076
- Do maybe entitlement reforms, all these numbers of things
- 00:04:13.076 --> 00:04:16.579
- You'd want to do, and it would be a huge misfire.
- 00:04:16.579 --> 00:04:19.515
- I think if we were to get rid
- 00:04:19.515 --> 00:04:20.550
- Of the filibuster, get rid of the 60 vote barrier,
- 00:04:20.550 --> 00:04:23.553
- And all we get out of it
- 00:04:23.553 --> 00:04:24.620
- Is we end up shut down and we resume snap benefits.
- 00:04:24.620 --> 00:04:27.457
- And then if democrats take office after 2028,
- 00:04:27.457 --> 00:04:30.393
- God forbid, but, you know, it's a possibility,
- 00:04:30.393 --> 00:04:32.428
- Then they come in and they're getting that day
- 00:04:32.428 --> 00:04:34.230
- One no filibuster thing where they get to run wild.
- 00:04:34.230 --> 00:04:37.567
- And i think that would be my concern,
- 00:04:37.567 --> 00:04:39.435
- And probably charlie's concern
- 00:04:39.435 --> 00:04:40.770
- If he was here to talk about it with us. how about you guys?
- 00:04:40.770 --> 00:04:44.140
- Well, i feel
- 00:04:44.474 --> 00:04:46.242
- Like i feel a little bit conflicted.
- 00:04:46.242 --> 00:04:48.478
- Because i think the one main thing that would be worth
- 00:04:48.478 --> 00:04:52.648
- Ending the filibuster for is immigration reform.
- 00:04:52.648 --> 00:04:55.251
- Either an immigration moratorium
- 00:04:55.251 --> 00:04:57.620
- Or at least a dramatic reduction in a and a
- 00:04:57.620 --> 00:05:00.490
- Replacing of our current model with something that was more
- 00:05:00.490 --> 00:05:04.160
- Merit based and more interested in
- 00:05:04.160 --> 00:05:06.596
- What what does america get out of it?
- 00:05:06.596 --> 00:05:08.231
- I think immigration
- 00:05:08.231 --> 00:05:09.298
- Is the first, second and third and fourth and fifth
- 00:05:09.298 --> 00:05:12.101
- Most important issue in our country.
- 00:05:12.101 --> 00:05:13.770
- I think it's all about the future of america.
- 00:05:13.770 --> 00:05:15.705
- So if you're going to do it,
- 00:05:15.705 --> 00:05:16.672
- You got to have the guts to do that.
- 00:05:16.672 --> 00:05:17.974
- I don't think it's worth blowing up the filibuster to.
- 00:05:17.974 --> 00:05:22.011
- Yeah, just turn snap benefits back on or
- 00:05:22.011 --> 00:05:24.113
- Get the government going.
- 00:05:24.113 --> 00:05:25.181
- I mean,
- 00:05:25.181 --> 00:05:26.015
- I think we are in a winning position
- 00:05:26.015 --> 00:05:27.316
- When it comes to the government shutdown.
- 00:05:27.316 --> 00:05:28.818
- We as, the republican party have we have,
- 00:05:28.818 --> 00:05:31.854
- Tried to open the government multiple, multiple times.
- 00:05:31.854 --> 00:05:34.690
- The democrats have,
- 00:05:34.690 --> 00:05:35.792
- Have blocked it, time and again,
- 00:05:35.792 --> 00:05:38.060
- They have even tried to pass a clean bill
- 00:05:38.060 --> 00:05:41.230
- To turn snap benefits back on for people.
- 00:05:41.230 --> 00:05:43.299
- So this is the newest,
- 00:05:43.299 --> 00:05:44.434
- You know, flashpoint is the, the snap benefits.
- 00:05:44.434 --> 00:05:47.236
- But here's the deal.
- 00:05:47.236 --> 00:05:49.138
- If we do this, there will come a time.
- 00:05:49.138 --> 00:05:53.142
- And you've
- 00:05:53.443 --> 00:05:54.510
- We've just got to be perfectly honest about it,
- 00:05:54.510 --> 00:05:56.446
- Where they will make
- 00:05:56.446 --> 00:05:57.680
- Puerto rico a state, and that's two more, democrat senators.
- 00:05:57.680 --> 00:06:02.051
- They will probably try and make washington, dc a state.
- 00:06:02.051 --> 00:06:05.087
- That's two more senators on top of that.
- 00:06:05.087 --> 00:06:08.758
- So you could be staring down the barrel of a situation
- 00:06:08.758 --> 00:06:11.661
- Where if you if you take this away,
- 00:06:11.661 --> 00:06:14.931
- Then we might not ever have a majority
- 00:06:14.931 --> 00:06:17.733
- In the us senate again.
- 00:06:17.733 --> 00:06:19.602
- I mean, we could now, jd vance said at our turning point
- 00:06:19.602 --> 00:06:23.473
- Event at old myths like we shouldn't
- 00:06:23.473 --> 00:06:25.541
- Be afraid to do stuff just because we know
- 00:06:25.541 --> 00:06:27.410
- That the democrat party is going to do it well.
- 00:06:27.410 --> 00:06:30.146
- This is one instance
- 00:06:30.146 --> 00:06:32.348
- That at least in the previous iteration,
- 00:06:32.348 --> 00:06:34.350
- We had kirsten cinnamon, we had joe manchin that blocked,
- 00:06:34.350 --> 00:06:38.254
- The nuclear option from being on the table
- 00:06:38.254 --> 00:06:41.023
- For the democrats.
- 00:06:41.023 --> 00:06:41.924
- And that probably saved the republic.
- 00:06:41.924 --> 00:06:43.493
- So i feel very, very conflicted.
- 00:06:43.493 --> 00:06:44.994
- Obviously, it's tempting to do any a party's in power.
- 00:06:44.994 --> 00:06:47.630
- It's tempting to do,
- 00:06:47.630 --> 00:06:48.631
- But i think we have to be very, very cautious
- 00:06:48.631 --> 00:06:52.268
- About doing this.
- 00:06:52.268 --> 00:06:52.935
- And and we've seen that mike
- 00:06:52.935 --> 00:06:54.070
- Johnson has come out against, blown up the filibuster.
- 00:06:54.070 --> 00:06:56.706
- So i don't know if you have final thoughts there, but like
- 00:06:56.706 --> 00:06:59.175
- Before we hit the break, but,
- 00:06:59.175 --> 00:07:00.943
- It's it's a, it's a hornet's nest, that's it's it's
- 00:07:00.943 --> 00:07:04.547
- You always just any time
- 00:07:04.547 --> 00:07:06.516
- There's a lot of things republicans have wanted to do.
- 00:07:06.516 --> 00:07:09.318
- And anytime
- 00:07:09.318 --> 00:07:10.219
- You're going to do something political,
- 00:07:10.219 --> 00:07:11.554
- You have to think what will happen next.
- 00:07:11.554 --> 00:07:14.190
- You always want to think
- 00:07:14.190 --> 00:07:15.291
- The medium term consequences of what you will do.
- 00:07:15.291 --> 00:07:17.927
- And this is one of the biggest ones of all,
- 00:07:17.927 --> 00:07:20.029
- Where you have to think that out.
- 00:07:20.029 --> 00:07:21.197
- So be careful what you wish for as what we would say.
- 00:07:21.197 --> 00:07:29.539
- In genesis
- 00:07:29.839 --> 00:07:30.740
- 12 three, god made a powerful promise
- 00:07:30.740 --> 00:07:33.376
- To abraham, the father of the jewish people.
- 00:07:33.376 --> 00:07:36.579
- I will bless those who bless you.
- 00:07:36.579 --> 00:07:39.782
- The christian bible tells us
- 00:07:39.782 --> 00:07:41.317
- That we have been grafted into god's family tree.
- 00:07:41.317 --> 00:07:44.287
- The rich olive tree of israel,
- 00:07:44.287 --> 00:07:46.689
- The very foundations of the christian faith,
- 00:07:46.689 --> 00:07:49.091
- The bible and jesus, whom christians call
- 00:07:49.091 --> 00:07:51.694
- The messiah, are deeply rooted in israel.
- 00:07:51.694 --> 00:07:55.164
- Supporting israel aligns christians with god's
- 00:07:55.164 --> 00:07:57.800
- Prophetic timeline.
- 00:07:57.800 --> 00:07:59.168
- It demonstrates our willingness to be instruments of
- 00:07:59.168 --> 00:08:02.405
- God's blessing, uplifting his chosen people,
- 00:08:02.405 --> 00:08:05.975
- And it calls us to confront and heal
- 00:08:05.975 --> 00:08:08.277
- The centuries old wounds of anti-semitism.
- 00:08:08.277 --> 00:08:11.314
- The scripture says how good and how
- 00:08:11.314 --> 00:08:13.749
- Pleasant it is when brethren dwell together.
- 00:08:13.749 --> 00:08:17.053
- You can be part of this historic movement
- 00:08:17.053 --> 00:08:20.590

- J.org today.
- 00:08:28.004 --> 00:08:33.203
- All right, without further ado, i'm so excited to bring in
- 00:08:34.338 --> 00:08:37.307
- Michael knowles, host of the michael knowles show.
- 00:08:37.307 --> 00:08:40.510
- And just all around good, good american,
- 00:08:40.510 --> 00:08:43.146
- Good catholic american.
- 00:08:43.146 --> 00:08:44.381
- Because that seems to be i want to actually i'm going
- 00:08:44.381 --> 00:08:46.350
- To get into that with you, michael.
- 00:08:46.350 --> 00:08:48.118
- Well, jd vance dust up about us. yeah.
- 00:08:48.118 --> 00:08:50.354
- But we'll, we'll
- 00:08:50.354 --> 00:08:51.355
- We're going to start with the most important.
- 00:08:51.355 --> 00:08:53.123
- Tell us what you did this week.
- 00:08:53.123 --> 00:08:54.825
- You you went before the u.s. senate.
- 00:08:54.825 --> 00:08:57.327
- It was a subcommittee hearing on
- 00:08:57.327 --> 00:08:59.262
- The rise of political violence.
- 00:08:59.262 --> 00:09:01.064
- It was hosted,
- 00:09:01.064 --> 00:09:02.265
- And chaired by senator eric schmidt from the great state
- 00:09:02.265 --> 00:09:05.335
- Of missouri.
- 00:09:05.335 --> 00:09:06.403
- Tell us what, what that was all about, michael.
- 00:09:06.403 --> 00:09:08.805
- It was a really important hearing.
- 00:09:08.805 --> 00:09:10.307
- I was honored to be invited in to go testify.
- 00:09:10.307 --> 00:09:13.143
- Chairman schmidt called it.
- 00:09:13.143 --> 00:09:15.012
- And as timely a moment as you can imagine,
- 00:09:15.012 --> 00:09:17.881
- He opened it, by the way,
- 00:09:17.881 --> 00:09:19.349
- With a beautiful tribute to charlie.
- 00:09:19.349 --> 00:09:21.551
- And and, if people haven't gone to see the testimony,
- 00:09:21.551 --> 00:09:25.122
- Just even that opening, i think was really beautiful.
- 00:09:25.122 --> 00:09:27.224
- And that was obviously the cause of of the testimony
- 00:09:27.224 --> 00:09:30.193
- Because there's been
- 00:09:30.193 --> 00:09:31.361
- A lot of political violence and it has been increasing.
- 00:09:31.361 --> 00:09:33.497
- There was a pew poll just came out.
- 00:09:33.497 --> 00:09:34.865
- 85% of americans think that political violence
- 00:09:34.865 --> 00:09:37.934
- Is getting worse in our country.
- 00:09:37.934 --> 00:09:39.436
- When 85% of americans agree on anything.
- 00:09:39.436 --> 00:09:42.039
- I think you can
- 00:09:42.039 --> 00:09:43.073
- You can acknowledge that it's it's happening.
- 00:09:43.073 --> 00:09:45.008
- And, so he said, all right, obviously this is a long
- 00:09:45.008 --> 00:09:48.445
- Standing problem that has reached this horrific,
- 00:09:48.445 --> 00:09:51.915
- Tragic climax in lee's assassination
- 00:09:51.915 --> 00:09:55.919
- And in the reaction to charlie's assassination
- 00:09:55.919 --> 00:09:58.755
- And the minimizing and the excusing and the justifying
- 00:09:58.755 --> 00:10:01.792
- And even the celebrating at all levels of the american left.
- 00:10:01.792 --> 00:10:05.829
- And so we need to figure out what's really going on here.
- 00:10:05.829 --> 00:10:08.632
- So i felt it was important to go.
- 00:10:08.632 --> 00:10:11.068
- The democrats called their own minority witnesses.
- 00:10:11.068 --> 00:10:14.137
- What was really, disappointing is that
- 00:10:14.137 --> 00:10:17.541
- Half the democrats on the panel didn't even show up.
- 00:10:17.541 --> 00:10:21.745
- The ones who did show up asked,
- 00:10:21.745 --> 00:10:24.648
- I thought, ridiculous questions.
- 00:10:24.648 --> 00:10:26.216
- You know, they would just bring up january 6th or whatever.
- 00:10:26.216 --> 00:10:28.952
- They wouldn't even let us answer on
- 00:10:28.952 --> 00:10:30.320
- The points of january 6th.
- 00:10:30.320 --> 00:10:33.090
- I think because they know the
- 00:10:33.724 --> 00:10:34.591
- Answers would be devastating to them.
- 00:10:34.591 --> 00:10:36.593
- And, and then there was one moment in particular
- 00:10:36.593 --> 00:10:39.062
- That i thought was
- 00:10:39.062 --> 00:10:40.030
- Was really crazy because one of the guys on
- 00:10:40.030 --> 00:10:41.531
- This subcommittee is cory booker,
- 00:10:41.531 --> 00:10:43.800
- And cory booker has endorsed jay jones for attorney general
- 00:10:43.800 --> 00:10:47.471
- Of virginia.
- 00:10:47.471 --> 00:10:48.705
- Jay jones, who has called for republican, is to be killed.
- 00:10:48.705 --> 00:10:52.008
- And he's clarified he wasn't joking about that.
- 00:10:52.008 --> 00:10:54.611
- So cory booker shows up late.
- 00:10:54.611 --> 00:10:57.147
- He uses up all his time just bloviating, saying
- 00:10:57.147 --> 00:11:00.684
- It's really a both sides issue, but actually, secretly, it's
- 00:11:00.684 --> 00:11:02.919
- Entirely a right wing issue.
- 00:11:02.919 --> 00:11:04.488
- And anyway, we need to
- 00:11:04.488 --> 00:11:05.922
- We need to be more careful about our words.
- 00:11:05.922 --> 00:11:07.491
- We need to take back our words
- 00:11:07.491 --> 00:11:08.859
- When we say things we shouldn't have said.
- 00:11:08.859 --> 00:11:10.160
- We need to be introspect.
- 00:11:10.160 --> 00:11:11.762
- The questioning then goes to
- 00:11:12.362 --> 00:11:13.563
- Senator blackburn on the other side of the room.
- 00:11:13.563 --> 00:11:15.265
- I'm listening to her and i say, okay,
- 00:11:15.265 --> 00:11:16.666
- That's a good question, but i want to
- 00:11:16.666 --> 00:11:17.567
- Get back to something, senator booker said.
- 00:11:17.567 --> 00:11:19.302
- You know,
- 00:11:19.302 --> 00:11:20.103
- If he's really serious about this,
- 00:11:20.103 --> 00:11:21.004
- It seems like he's setting the stage
- 00:11:21.004 --> 00:11:22.606
- To withdraw his endorsement from jay jones.
- 00:11:22.606 --> 00:11:25.442
- He should do that now i turn booker left the room.
- 00:11:25.442 --> 00:11:28.578
- There's a cory booker shaped hole in the wall.
- 00:11:28.578 --> 00:11:30.347
- The whole thing on the democrat side
- 00:11:30.347 --> 00:11:32.249
- Was completely disingenuous.
- 00:11:32.249 --> 00:11:34.017
- It was crocodile tears.
- 00:11:34.017 --> 00:11:35.652
- And the conclusion that i have to reach from
- 00:11:35.652 --> 00:11:38.088
- That is the democrats
- 00:11:38.088 --> 00:11:39.556
- Don't want to talk about political violence
- 00:11:39.556 --> 00:11:41.191
- Because one, it's coming from the left.
- 00:11:41.191 --> 00:11:42.759
- Even the atlantic magazine
- 00:11:42.759 --> 00:11:43.860
- Admits it, and two, because their base supports it.
- 00:11:43.860 --> 00:11:47.531
- And i can't come to any conclusion
- 00:11:47.531 --> 00:11:48.865
- Other than
- 00:11:48.865 --> 00:11:49.966
- The democrats in government are more or less fine
- 00:11:49.966 --> 00:11:52.536
- With the political violence, too.
- 00:11:52.536 --> 00:11:54.204
- Well, i fear you're right, michael.
- 00:11:54.204 --> 00:11:55.639
- There's a clip here that from jennifer welch,
- 00:11:55.639 --> 00:12:01.011
- Who i confess, i had no idea who she was
- 00:12:01.011 --> 00:12:03.647
- Until about a week ago,
- 00:12:03.647 --> 00:12:06.883
- And she apparently has amassed
- 00:12:06.883 --> 00:12:09.019
- Quite a following as a podcast.
- 00:12:09.019 --> 00:12:10.654
- So she's a former bravo reality star that became a podcaster.
- 00:12:10.654 --> 00:12:15.358
- And she says some pretty troubling things
- 00:12:15.358 --> 00:12:17.727
- That lead me to believe
- 00:12:17.727 --> 00:12:18.995
- That your conclusions reached after this subcommittee hearing
- 00:12:18.995 --> 00:12:22.666
- Are sadly, more likely than not true.
- 00:12:22.666 --> 00:12:25.936
- Play cut 283. so listen up.
- 00:12:25.936 --> 00:12:27.771
- Democratic establishment,
- 00:12:27.771 --> 00:12:29.339
- You can either jump on board with this
- 00:12:30.106 --> 00:12:32.809
- Or we're coming after you in the same way
- 00:12:32.809 --> 00:12:35.045
- That we come after maga period there
- 00:12:35.045 --> 00:12:38.148
- That are beholden to the same corporations
- 00:12:38.148 --> 00:12:41.051
- That donald trump that helped donald trump get elected.
- 00:12:41.051 --> 00:12:44.354
- Kudos to bernie, to aoc, to zoran
- 00:12:44.354 --> 00:12:48.391
- And that woman out in somewhere middle america
- 00:12:48.391 --> 00:12:51.795
- Saying charlie kirk, he was a racist.
- 00:12:51.795 --> 00:12:54.764
- He was a piece.
- 00:12:54.764 --> 00:12:56.766
- There are so many more of us than there are of them.
- 00:12:56.766 --> 00:12:59.603
- And these democrats that continue to play patty
- 00:12:59.603 --> 00:13:02.339
- Cake with corporations, nobody wants that.
- 00:13:02.339 --> 00:13:05.575
- Nobody wants you.
- 00:13:05.575 --> 00:13:07.244
- So, michael, is she right that the democrat base does
- 00:13:07.244 --> 00:13:10.480
- Not want to moderate, that they do not want
- 00:13:10.480 --> 00:13:13.717
- To confront the demons in their own closet
- 00:13:13.717 --> 00:13:16.553
- And their own activist militant base?
- 00:13:16.553 --> 00:13:19.456
- You know, the polls as well as i.
- 00:13:19.456 --> 00:13:21.157
- After charlie's assassination, yougov conducted surveys
- 00:13:21.157 --> 00:13:24.594
- Showed that people who identify as very liberal are eight
- 00:13:24.594 --> 00:13:27.631
- Times as likely as people who are very conservative
- 00:13:27.631 --> 00:13:30.500
- And justify political violence.
- 00:13:30.500 --> 00:13:32.002
- Let's throw that image up.
- 00:13:32.002 --> 00:13:33.103
- This is, 31 image 31, please.
- 00:13:33.103 --> 00:13:36.473
- And i believe this is the poll you're looking at.
- 00:13:36.473 --> 00:13:38.575
- And that that crazy we've we've shown in a number time
- 00:13:38.575 --> 00:13:41.478
- A number of times on this show, michael.
- 00:13:41.478 --> 00:13:43.113
- But this is to me
- 00:13:43.113 --> 00:13:44.314
- The scariest graph that exists in american politics today.
- 00:13:44.314 --> 00:13:47.384
- We have 18 to 39 year old self-described progressives
- 00:13:47.384 --> 00:13:51.521
- With that wild
- 00:13:51.855 --> 00:13:54.057
- Stand out node, that blue left dot on the screen
- 00:13:54.057 --> 00:13:59.329
- Where you and you contrast that with the same age group
- 00:13:59.329 --> 00:14:02.499
- Among conservatives, and they are among the most,
- 00:14:02.499 --> 00:14:05.902
- If not the most peaceful of all the cohorts on this survey.
- 00:14:05.902 --> 00:14:14.844
- In genesis
- 00:14:15.145 --> 00:14:16.046
- 12 three, god made a powerful promise
- 00:14:16.046 --> 00:14:18.682
- To abraham, the father of the jewish people.
- 00:14:18.682 --> 00:14:21.885
- I will bless those who bless you.
- 00:14:21.885 --> 00:14:25.088
- The christian bible tells us
- 00:14:25.088 --> 00:14:26.623
- That we have been grafted into god's family tree.
- 00:14:26.623 --> 00:14:29.592
- The rich olive tree of israel,
- 00:14:29.592 --> 00:14:31.995
- The very foundations of the christian faith,
- 00:14:31.995 --> 00:14:34.397
- The bible and jesus, whom christians call
- 00:14:34.397 --> 00:14:37.000
- The messiah, are deeply rooted in israel.
- 00:14:37.000 --> 00:14:40.470
- Supporting israel aligns christians with god's
- 00:14:40.470 --> 00:14:43.106
- Prophetic timeline.
- 00:14:43.106 --> 00:14:44.474
- It demonstrates our willingness to be instruments of
- 00:14:44.474 --> 00:14:47.711
- God's blessing, uplifting his chosen people,
- 00:14:47.711 --> 00:14:51.281
- And it calls us to confront and heal
- 00:14:51.281 --> 00:14:53.583
- The centuries old wounds of anti-semitism.
- 00:14:53.583 --> 00:14:56.619
- The scripture says how good and how
- 00:14:56.619 --> 00:14:59.055
- Pleasant it is when brethren dwell together.
- 00:14:59.055 --> 00:15:02.359
- You can be part of this historic movement
- 00:15:02.359 --> 00:15:05.895

- J.org today.
- 00:15:13.007 --> 00:15:19.510
- Top trump
- 00:15:19.810 --> 00:15:20.745
- Officials are moving on to military bases.
- 00:15:20.745 --> 00:15:24.081
- Stephen miller, marco rubio, kristi noem and others
- 00:15:24.081 --> 00:15:27.618
- Have taken over homes
- 00:15:27.618 --> 00:15:29.286
- That until recently housed senior military officials.
- 00:15:29.286 --> 00:15:32.556
- So this is
- 00:15:32.857 --> 00:15:33.991
- Straight from the atlantic, and it is no longer safe
- 00:15:33.991 --> 00:15:37.461
- For members of the trump administration to live out
- 00:15:37.461 --> 00:15:40.998
- In the general public.
- 00:15:40.998 --> 00:15:42.199
- They have to be housed in secure military bases for
- 00:15:42.199 --> 00:15:46.203
- Their own safety and for their family safety.
- 00:15:46.203 --> 00:15:48.205
- This is what it's come to.
- 00:15:48.205 --> 00:15:49.707
- What's crazy?
- 00:15:49.707 --> 00:15:50.841
- That's actually not even the article i was referencing.
- 00:15:50.841 --> 00:15:53.110
- There's another article that says left wing
- 00:15:53.110 --> 00:15:55.513
- Terrorism is on the rise.
- 00:15:55.513 --> 00:15:57.248
- That's the headline.
- 00:15:57.248 --> 00:15:58.249
- I actually hadn't even seen this headline
- 00:15:58.249 --> 00:16:00.184
- Until you just showed it to me.
- 00:16:00.184 --> 00:16:01.685
- The fact that we have civilians, we have people
- 00:16:01.685 --> 00:16:05.189
- Just working in our government, ordinary political order,
- 00:16:05.189 --> 00:16:08.893
- Who now have to move to secure locations
- 00:16:08.893 --> 00:16:12.329
- For military leaders.
- 00:16:12.329 --> 00:16:14.131
- It shows you that
- 00:16:14.131 --> 00:16:15.366
- That something really horrific has happened in this country,
- 00:16:15.366 --> 00:16:17.902
- As if the rubicon has been crossed.
- 00:16:17.902 --> 00:16:20.104
- I suspect that happened when the democrats started
- 00:16:20.104 --> 00:16:23.674
- Prosecuting trump.
- 00:16:23.674 --> 00:16:25.276
- You know, the chief
- 00:16:25.276 --> 00:16:26.177
- Political opponent and the predecessor
- 00:16:26.177 --> 00:16:27.912
- When they started writing his home,
- 00:16:27.912 --> 00:16:30.214
- When when they started going, after all,
- 00:16:30.214 --> 00:16:33.084
- All of their enemies.
- 00:16:33.084 --> 00:16:33.984
- And even justifying his assassination,
- 00:16:33.984 --> 00:16:36.053
- Which nearly happened in butler,
- 00:16:36.053 --> 00:16:37.488
- Nearly happened again, actually, later on,
- 00:16:37.488 --> 00:16:39.590
- It it does feel like something just seismically has shifted
- 00:16:39.590 --> 00:16:43.027
- In the political order, and it's a lot bigger than some
- 00:16:43.027 --> 00:16:45.830
- One podcaster making nasty comments.
- 00:16:45.830 --> 00:16:49.233
- Or, i don't know, one democrat in congress.
- 00:16:49.233 --> 00:16:51.902
- It seems like this is a major shift of the whole left.
- 00:16:51.902 --> 00:16:55.239
- Yeah, it feels like the whole tree has
- 00:16:56.073 --> 00:16:58.209
- Has become rotten from the root and the it
- 00:16:58.209 --> 00:17:02.546
- It does feel like there is a seismic shift.
- 00:17:02.546 --> 00:17:06.050
- It's an ideological movement, wide shift.
- 00:17:06.050 --> 00:17:08.986
- And you could see it about the way that they talk
- 00:17:08.986 --> 00:17:10.855
- About president trump or they talk about charlie,
- 00:17:10.855 --> 00:17:13.257
- Nazi, fascist, bigot, racist, homophobe, xenophobe,
- 00:17:13.257 --> 00:17:17.394
- All of this language that is basically said
- 00:17:17.394 --> 00:17:20.364
- This movement is a bunch of nazis.
- 00:17:20.364 --> 00:17:22.466
- And what did we have to do with hitler?
- 00:17:22.466 --> 00:17:23.701
- We had to eventually, you know, take him out.
- 00:17:23.701 --> 00:17:26.570
- Right.
- 00:17:26.570 --> 00:17:27.638
- And i think that's becoming it more widely and widely
- 00:17:27.638 --> 00:17:30.774
- Accepted within the left wing, political movement.
- 00:17:30.774 --> 00:17:33.410
- Michael, those 10s then i gotta
- 00:17:33.410 --> 00:17:35.246
- I gotta take a profit timeout.
- 00:17:35.246 --> 00:17:38.115
- Just listen to joe biden.
- 00:17:38.115 --> 00:17:39.416
- Get it from the horse's mouth.
- 00:17:39.416 --> 00:17:40.618
- Is it the horse's mouth? some part of the horse.
- 00:17:40.618 --> 00:17:42.786
- When you say that
- 00:17:42.786 --> 00:17:43.854
- There's an existential threat to the country,
- 00:17:43.854 --> 00:17:46.190
- As he said about trump, existential
- 00:17:46.190 --> 00:17:48.259
- Threats are a justification for assassination.
- 00:17:48.259 --> 00:17:50.761
- I think they knew exactly what they were doing. show.
- 00:17:50.761 --> 00:17:52.429
- I want to bring in blake and mikey in the studio.
- 00:17:52.429 --> 00:17:54.865
- If they're still there for this conversation.
- 00:17:54.865 --> 00:17:56.901
- This is, really
- 00:17:56.901 --> 00:17:58.002
- Important stuff, actually, because it kind of went,
- 00:17:58.002 --> 00:18:01.639
- I think the night one right after ole miss.
- 00:18:01.639 --> 00:18:04.041
- Nobody really talked about it, michael.
- 00:18:04.041 --> 00:18:05.976
- But then the day after, the day after,
- 00:18:05.976 --> 00:18:07.878
- People are talking about that,
- 00:18:07.878 --> 00:18:09.046
- They think jd
- 00:18:09.046 --> 00:18:10.181
- Was so rude to his wife and he can't they can't believe
- 00:18:10.181 --> 00:18:14.251
- That he would want his wife to become a christian.
- 00:18:14.251 --> 00:18:16.820
- So let's play the
- 00:18:16.820 --> 00:18:17.922
- The clip from the old miss event 286 play it now.
- 00:18:17.922 --> 00:18:21.992
- Most sundays
- 00:18:21.992 --> 00:18:22.760
- You should come with me to church,
- 00:18:22.760 --> 00:18:24.361
- As i've told her
- 00:18:24.361 --> 00:18:25.429
- And i've said publicly and i'll say now,
- 00:18:25.429 --> 00:18:26.997
- In front of 10,000 of my closest friends,
- 00:18:26.997 --> 00:18:29.633
- Do i hope eventually that she is somehow moved
- 00:18:29.633 --> 00:18:33.470
- By the same thing that i was moved in by church?
- 00:18:33.470 --> 00:18:36.106
- Yeah, i honestly, i do wish that
- 00:18:36.106 --> 00:18:38.409
- Because i believe in the christian gospel
- 00:18:38.409 --> 00:18:40.778
- And i hope eventually my wife comes to see it the same way.
- 00:18:40.778 --> 00:18:44.081
- So i wanted to bring in, you know,
- 00:18:44.081 --> 00:18:47.151
- Obviously mickey is the son of a pastor.
- 00:18:47.151 --> 00:18:49.353
- Blake is a catholic. you're a catholic.
- 00:18:49.353 --> 00:18:51.889
- We're all christians here.
- 00:18:51.889 --> 00:18:53.557
- Is that rude to say that you hope your wife would
- 00:18:53.557 --> 00:18:57.194
- Eventually one day see,
- 00:18:57.194 --> 00:18:58.362
- See the world and to have faith like you do?
- 00:18:58.362 --> 00:19:00.798
- Yeah.
- 00:19:00.798 --> 00:19:01.465
- I just i, i think it's crazy
- 00:19:01.465 --> 00:19:03.767
- Because christianity has proven you live a happier life.
- 00:19:03.767 --> 00:19:07.471
- Charlize talked about it was the missing piece
- 00:19:07.471 --> 00:19:09.306
- For everybody.
- 00:19:09.306 --> 00:19:10.107
- Once you found that missing piece,
- 00:19:10.107 --> 00:19:11.342
- You lived the life that that was there for you.
- 00:19:11.342 --> 00:19:14.311
- And he would argue
- 00:19:14.311 --> 00:19:15.512
- About the necessity of god over the existence of one.
- 00:19:15.512 --> 00:19:18.616
- And so no more than you would wish
- 00:19:18.616 --> 00:19:21.151
- Someone who's an alcoholic to no longer be an alcoholic.
- 00:19:21.151 --> 00:19:23.854
- Would you wish for them to find christianity
- 00:19:23.854 --> 00:19:26.190
- The missing piece that would bring them peace and happiness?
- 00:19:26.190 --> 00:19:29.460
- Yeah. it's, i don't know.
- 00:19:29.460 --> 00:19:31.562
- I basically have nothing to add over.
- 00:19:31.562 --> 00:19:32.896
- What what, mike, you said there,
- 00:19:32.896 --> 00:19:34.164
- It's it's very bizarre to say.
- 00:19:34.164 --> 00:19:36.033
- I guess, like jd vance wants what he thinks is best
- 00:19:36.033 --> 00:19:39.703
- For his spouse, whom he loves.
- 00:19:39.703 --> 00:19:43.007
- And, you know, someone has to come in.
- 00:19:43.007 --> 00:19:44.642
- And i'm proud of this has become quite
- 00:19:44.642 --> 00:19:47.911
- A controversy online i was looking at.
- 00:19:47.911 --> 00:19:49.647
- So jd is reacting to a clip
- 00:19:49.647 --> 00:19:52.716
- From was akin i never know how to say it guys.
- 00:19:53.617 --> 00:19:56.353
- His twitter handle but you know a lefty on twitter on x
- 00:19:56.353 --> 00:19:59.723
- And that thing has 10 million views
- 00:19:59.723 --> 00:20:02.426
- Like it's a lot of engagement.
- 00:20:02.426 --> 00:20:03.961
- Michael.
- 00:20:03.961 --> 00:20:04.795
- What what is this?
- 00:20:04.795 --> 00:20:06.063
- Just much ado about nothing.
- 00:20:06.063 --> 00:20:07.831
- I mean it's the the it's better than that. it.
- 00:20:07.831 --> 00:20:10.701
- Oh go ahead.
- 00:20:10.701 --> 00:20:11.602
- It's much it's much ado about something.
- 00:20:11.602 --> 00:20:13.470
- It's just something good.
- 00:20:13.470 --> 00:20:14.838
- I mean, i think we need to state it out the gate.
- 00:20:14.838 --> 00:20:18.509
- What jd and erica did was magnificent.
- 00:20:18.509 --> 00:20:21.512
- The fact that erica has
- 00:20:21.512 --> 00:20:22.713
- The strength to do this is just superhuman, first of all.
- 00:20:22.713 --> 00:20:25.949
- And then what
- 00:20:25.949 --> 00:20:27.051
- The vice president did in the q and a was magnificent.
- 00:20:27.051 --> 00:20:29.853
- I know we're all admirers of the vice president here.
- 00:20:29.853 --> 00:20:32.756
- He was pitch perfect.
- 00:20:32.756 --> 00:20:35.225
- I would not have changed one syllable about any answer
- 00:20:35.225 --> 00:20:38.929
- He gave.
- 00:20:38.929 --> 00:20:39.763
- It was just for a phenomenal showing
- 00:20:39.763 --> 00:20:41.765
- On all of these different matters
- 00:20:41.765 --> 00:20:43.167
- And some questions that were a little bit hostile.
- 00:20:43.167 --> 00:20:44.968
- And on this,
- 00:20:44.968 --> 00:20:46.103
- I think you're seeing the poison
- 00:20:46.103 --> 00:20:48.272
- Of secularism and atheism in our culture setting in
- 00:20:48.272 --> 00:20:51.709
- And people's reactions
- 00:20:51.709 --> 00:20:53.110
- Because it's not that they disagree
- 00:20:53.110 --> 00:20:55.579
- With the vice president on religion,
- 00:20:55.579 --> 00:20:57.214
- It's that they don't even seem to know what religion is.
- 00:20:57.214 --> 00:21:00.751
- But jd, jd understands what religion is
- 00:21:00.751 --> 00:21:03.287
- And he has a living faith.
- 00:21:03.287 --> 00:21:04.521
- And so as as we've all said here, he's
- 00:21:04.521 --> 00:21:07.991
- He wants what he believes to be good for his wife.
- 00:21:07.991 --> 00:21:12.229
- He recognizes that religion is not just like a taste.
- 00:21:12.229 --> 00:21:14.898
- You know, you like chocolate and i like vanilla.
- 00:21:14.898 --> 00:21:16.967
- He recognizes that religion is a habit, a virtue
- 00:21:16.967 --> 00:21:20.037
- That inclines the will to give to god what he deserves.
- 00:21:20.037 --> 00:21:22.740
- It's it's not a question of like or dislike.
- 00:21:22.740 --> 00:21:24.942
- It's a question of truth or falsehood.
- 00:21:24.942 --> 00:21:27.444
- And so he's being very respectful
- 00:21:27.444 --> 00:21:29.680
- To people of other faiths,
- 00:21:29.680 --> 00:21:31.315
- Including his wife, of course, but many other people too.
- 00:21:31.315 --> 00:21:33.784
- He's just saying, look, i have this view of religious truth.
- 00:21:33.784 --> 00:21:36.987
- And i think that truth and goodness and beauty
- 00:21:36.987 --> 00:21:39.289
- And all these things go together.
- 00:21:39.289 --> 00:21:40.524
- And so because i love my wife and by extension, by the way,
- 00:21:40.524 --> 00:21:43.927
- Because i love other people, i want to share that with you.
- 00:21:43.927 --> 00:21:47.297
- You know,
- 00:21:47.297 --> 00:21:48.432
- That is the great commission that that is the gospel.
- 00:21:48.432 --> 00:21:50.501
- That's the whole that's like the old point, guys.
- 00:21:50.501 --> 00:21:53.070
- And the fact that people would attack him for
- 00:21:53.070 --> 00:21:55.639
- It is one thing.
- 00:21:55.639 --> 00:21:56.874
- The fact that they don't even understand what he's saying
- 00:21:56.874 --> 00:21:59.843
- Is so damning about our culture and how we think
- 00:21:59.843 --> 00:22:03.247
- About the deepest questions.
- 00:22:03.247 --> 00:22:04.982
- I think that's exactly right.
- 00:22:04.982 --> 00:22:06.350
- Blake and mickey take us home at the end of this hour.
- 00:22:06.350 --> 00:22:08.786
- One with michael knowles. the floor is your guys's.
- 00:22:08.786 --> 00:22:11.388
- You have the other thing that i love to.
- 00:22:11.388 --> 00:22:13.924
- Not just the religious aspect of jd's speech, but
- 00:22:13.924 --> 00:22:17.795
- Also he's backstage and he just goes,
- 00:22:17.795 --> 00:22:20.597
- What was the thing that charlie used to always say?
- 00:22:20.597 --> 00:22:22.766
- That disagreements come to the front of the line,
- 00:22:22.766 --> 00:22:25.369
- And i was like, yeah, yeah, that's it.
- 00:22:25.369 --> 00:22:27.004
- And he goes, i'm going to do that tonight.
- 00:22:27.004 --> 00:22:28.772
- And i just keep telling everybody,
- 00:22:28.772 --> 00:22:30.507
- You can't even find a senator or a congressman or
- 00:22:30.507 --> 00:22:33.310
- Any person on the right who's a public speaker
- 00:22:33.310 --> 00:22:36.180
- That would welcome disagreements
- 00:22:36.180 --> 00:22:38.248
- To the front of the line, let alone the vice
- 00:22:38.248 --> 00:22:40.150
- President of the united states, who has much to lose.
- 00:22:40.150 --> 00:22:43.020
- But i hope it spreads because we've seen
- 00:22:43.020 --> 00:22:44.955
- How much better jd has gotten from
- 00:22:44.955 --> 00:22:47.224
- Just being in the arena all the time,
- 00:22:47.224 --> 00:22:49.126
- Whether it's on the sunday shows or doing
- 00:22:49.126 --> 00:22:50.894
- Something like this,
- 00:22:50.894 --> 00:22:51.895
- And think
- 00:22:51.895 --> 00:22:52.996
- How much better our politicians would be as a class
- 00:22:52.996 --> 00:22:55.966
- If this was expected.
- 00:22:55.966 --> 00:22:56.900
- Of all our senators and representatives,
