Haitian immigrants are allegedly eating park geese and pet cats in Ohio. Allegedly, according to social media, I'm actually a little skeptical. We'll get to it, I promise. First, though, if you will, indulge me. I just want to take a slight victory lap. I apparently bullied Kamala Harris into putting a policy platform on her website. I think I did it, actually. I don't want to take too much credit here, but one week ago today,

I noticed something that no one else seemed to have noticed. And it's no knock on them. It's probably because it was too absurd for anyone even to check. And it was that Kamala's website did not list any policy proposals. There was no policy anywhere on the website. Trump's did. Trump's policy platform, in fact, was the first link on his website. Kamala didn't even have one. So I pointed this out on social media. I said, you know, this is the difference between the two campaigns. you need to know. And the posts went viral on X and Instagram and wherever. And then I mentioned it on my podcast and radio show the next day. That was six days ago. Then yesterday, 50 days after announcing her presidential run, Kamala added an issues page to her website. Now, of course, Kamala has many issues.

We will get into them a little bit. For now, though, I am honored that I, have played whatever role I did in forcing Kamala's many, many issues personal and political to light. I'm Michael Knowles. This is the Michael Nol's show.

Am I racist? Why do you judge by the color of our faces? There's racial divisions just the plan by the Matrix. They bark down our cities, then they get called courageous instead of condemn in the media give them praises. Are Haitians eating geese and pets?

I don't know. We'll get into. We'll figure it out. There's so much more to say first, though. Go to balance of nature.com. Promocode Knolls.

Kamala has added a policy platform. This is really great news. What is in the policy platform? I have read it, the Kamala issues page. I will give you everything you need to know ahead of tonight's debate. She promises to raise taxes significantly on people making more than $400,000 per year. Okay, standard Democrat stuff. Not good for the economy, but standard Democrat stuff.

She promises to give away 25 grand to first-time homebuyers and more than that to first-generation homeowners. She promises to give money to entrepreneurs, specifically to non-white people. This is the language she uses. Kamala has led the Biden-Harris administration's efforts to increase access to capital for small businesses and bring venture capital to parts of Middle America that have for too long been overlooked, driving a record 19 million new business applications, tripling the small business administrations lending to black-owned businesses, and more than doubling small-dollar lending to Latino and women-owned businesses. So great news if you are a woman or a racial minority trying to start a business.

If you're a white guy too bad, she promises to cancel medical debt for more people. Okay, what does that mean? It means the government just spends more money and pays off different insurance companies. she promises to raise taxes to bail out Social Security, Medicare, standard stuff, raise the minimum wage standard stuff. She promises two Trump policies, no tax on tips, and a child tax credit, which she took directly from the Trump campaign. She promises to spend more money on public schools. Here again, she promises to spend more money giving education specifically to non-white people. Kamala writes, to date, Vice President Harris has helped deliver the largest investment in public education in American history.

provide nearly $170 billion in student debt relief for almost 5 million borrowers and deliver record investments in HBCU's tribal colleges, Hispanic serving institutions, and other minority serving institutions. So majority serving institutions, you're out of luck, too bad. Kamala thinks it's much more important to just give the money to her favored races. Then she promises to kill babies, no surprise. Then she promises to push more gay stuff, no surprise. Then she promises to rig the elections a bit more by expanding.

vote by mail and early voting. No surprise. Take away guns, amnesty and citizenship for illegals. She says she will fight the drug crisis not by closing the border, but by promoting overdose drugs. Doesn't seem like the most effective way to do it. She's currently the borders are. She could fix things right now. Doesn't want to do it. Then she promises to prosecute Trump and to gut the Supreme Court. So those are legitimately radical. But most of it is. standard Democrat fare. Now, how do we know it's standard Democrat fair? Brett Baer over at Fox News pointed this out today. The source code for her issues page is largely copied from the Biden issues page. So, you know, I don't want to claim too much credit here for forcing her to put this up. But what some

people will say is, well, Michael, you didn't force her to do it. It just took her 50 days to write her issues page. No, it took her zero days to write most of her issues page because she just stole it from Biden, which is very difficult because she calls her issue use page the new path forward. But it's not a new path forward. She's currently the vice president. She currently has presidential authority on certain important matters. And she stole much of the rest of her issues from Joe Biden. So it's exactly the same path that we're on that is not working out very well. Now, there is one really, really big issue that Kamala has to deal with. with and has to answer for to pet owners and geese enjoyers in public parks in Ohio, that would be

all the Haitian immigrants. There are 20,000 non-citizen Haitians that were brought into this small town in Ohio and social media. Again, we'll get into the social media accusations about this, but reportedly killing pets and things like that. Well, here is Kamala Harris bragging about the policy that brought the Haitians here. That is why also, starting with our administration, we gave TPS temporary protected status to Haitian migrants, 55,000. And then more recently, we extended temporary protected status to over 100,000 Haitian migrants for that very reason, that they need support, they need protection. There she is. She's bragging about this. What a humanitarian Kamala is. Except now it's a little politically unpopular. We're not just talking about 20,000 people in a 10,000.

in Ohio. We're talking about at one point, 100,000 people being given an even more formal protective status. Now, the problem with all of this, if you're a conservative, is that the old standard, you know, write your manifesto on the back of an envelope kind of campaign trail line isn't going to work here. What do the Republicans say? They say, we want less illegal immigration and more legal immigration. Illegal is bad and legal is good. But we all want more immigration. Many of you do not.

I do not. I don't think that would be good for the country. Most people, depending on which public opinion survey you're looking at, do not want more immigration of any kind. But that's the official, acceptable line from the GOP. And the problem is these Haitians who have taken over this town in Ohio are not illegal aliens. They're illegally. The Biden-Harris administration brought them in and then gave them special legal protective status.

The problems caused by mass migration are not just a matter of some technical violation of border law. It's a question of how many people should America take in? How quickly can they assimilate? What is a country? Is a country just an abstract idea floating in outer space? Or is it made up of real people? How does one become an American? Do you become an American simply by reading the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution?

Or does it require certain habits? Does it require certain culture? Does it take generations to even, to become an American? Our founding fathers seemed to think that it took a little while. And they were right about that. We point to the founding fathers as creating a purely creedal nation based on this one document written by Thomas Jefferson. And that's not how they viewed themselves. This is why, by the way, people on social media right now are talking about Haitians eating pets and ducks.

So J.D. Vance brought this up. J.D. tweeted out months ago, I raised the issue of Haitian illegal immigrants draining social services and generally causing chaos all over Springfield, Ohio. Reports now show that people have had their pets abducted and eaten by people who shouldn't be in this country. where is our borders are. So here is that months ago testimony that J.D. Vance was referring to. Chairman Brown, I'd like to ask unanimous consent to submit a letter for the record from the city of Springfield. And our state, the southwestern part of our state, which I think highlights a very real example of this particular concern, straight from the horse's mouth itself. Now, this letter I want to quote from it, Springfield has seen a surge in population through immigration that has significantly impacted our ability as a community to produce enough housing,

opportunities for all. Springfield's Haitian population has increased 15 to 20,000 over the last four years in a community of under 60,000 previous residents, putting a significant strain on our resources and ability to provide ample housing for all of our residents. And in quote there, and Mike, no objection. Thank you. In my conversations with folks in Springfield, it's not just housing. They're trying to build 5,000 new housing units, which is a very Herculane task in a town of about 55,000 people, but it's also hospital services, it's school services, it's, there's, there's a whole host of ways in which this immigration problem, I think, is having very real human consequences. Okay, that's the much more serious, sober immigration policy explanation of

what's going on. What everyone's talking about is the Haitian immigrants, allegedly eating cats and dogs and geese and, well, all manner of pets. And so that's what's dominating social media. We actually have a video of a cat lamenting how much she misses the good old days of the Trump administration. It was really beautiful, obviously. So, you know, our hearts go out to the cats and the geese and the dogs. But then we ask ourselves, is this really happening? And I so far have not seen evidence that the Haitians are eating cats and dogs.

there was one video or one one photo rather that was going viral of a black guy walking around holding a Canadian goose. But it's not clear exactly where this was taken place. It's not clear if the guy is Haitian. Worth pointing out as these reports come out of these Ohio towns that the geese are going missing, it is a federal crime to go kill geese in the park. Canadian geese are a protected species federally. Why? I don't know. They seem to be everywhere, but they're a federally protected species. and of course, as with all of these immigration issues, if native-born Americans committed even one fraction of the crimes that the illegal aliens are currently committing

and the people who have been brought over and given temporary protective status are currently committing, they would be in prison, especially if they're white people. But for some reason, we just let the illegal aliens and the temporary protected migrants off the hook. So that creates certain tensions in communities. But I think what this pet thing is really about is just a shocking sensationalist headline that may or may not be based in reality. I haven't really found evidence that it's based in reality.

But it's to underscore a real and urgent social concern that has been ignored by our political class. There's so much more to say first, though, text Noles to 98, 98, 98. Did you know there are nearly $1 trillion of infrastructure and pandemic funds yet to be spent? That's right. There is a massive amount of money that the lame duck administration is pushing hard to spend in their final few months. If the president is able to push these funds out, we could see another prolonged inflation surge, just like during COVID. I'm sure you remember the terrible effects that high prices had on most Americans, but there's hope. The surge in prices can be beaten.

You want to know why some people are accusing the Haitians of eating cats and dogs and geese in their towns.

It's because of testimony like this, from this woman from Springfield, Ohio, the town in question. I noticed all of the old familiar spots bearing new signs in an unfamiliar language. I watched as groups of strangers walked around the city like lost tourists, and it was like a punch in the gut. A terrible sadness came over me, and I began to cry. I immediately started to think back to when I was little, walking from my grandma's house on South Fountain through downtown and all the way to Snyder Park, going to Rends to get new school clothes and shoes.

The excitement of the mall for lunch at the Blue Fox were even better to see Santa, riding down high street, admiring the beauty of those stately homes and their amazing architecture, dropping pennies in the fountain and making wishes. And now all those warm memories are becoming fuel to the fire of anger inside of me. I feel like we have been invaded by some sort of pest. I'm angry that my friends and family are packing up and moving away. I'm angry that foreigners are using up the resources that were set up for the Americans that reside here. I'm angry that another country's flag was being flown in our city.

I'm angry when I see our businesses and recreational areas littered with garbage left by people that do not know or understand our laws and culture and are making no attempt to learn about them. That's what the Goosen thing is about. It's not about the geese and the cats. People don't care about Canadian geese all that much. That's what it's about. And the way that woman smoke is not politically correct,

and I'm sure she'll be called a racist and a bigot, and a xenophob for what she said. But there's a reason that video clip went viral because I think a lot of people listened to her testimony and they ask, can you blame her? Can you blame her? This woman,

something tells me she's not a descendant of the Rockefeller. Something tells me she doesn't have penthouses on Park Avenue. Okay, this isn't, you know, rich uncle pennybags sneering on the poor Hoy-Polloy and the migrants who come over. this is a woman who comes from a small town in Ohio and she's been there for a long time and she's got generational history in that town and she has good memories in that town and then her town was just taken away from her she looks up and people are speaking and writing in a language she doesn't recognize she looks up and the country is being filled up with people that are different the people of the town are just being replaced the the people who are the people who are are coming, no knock on them in themselves, but they don't understand the customs. They don't behave in the way the people in that town, people in this country are supposed to behave.

They're foreign, and they have foreign customs in a foreign language, and they do foreign stuff, which is being caricatured and exaggerated to include eating cats and geese. But to her point, do we not have a right to our country? The liberals would say we don't. They would say we don't have a right to our country because this is stolen land that we took from the Indians, and they can never quite name which Indian tribes we took it from, and they never acknowledge which Indian tribes those Indian tribes took it from. But all they know is that it's evil that America is here, and we have no right to our country, and we have no right to our borders,

and we have no right to our laws, and we have no right to our customs. And the people who say that, very frequently, they have a lot of money, and they can live in very nice little communities, and they can continue to have their own customs, and they can send their kids to the schools they want to send them to, and they don't need to worry about street crime in their neighborhoods. but all the little people, they can deal with it. They can deal with the real-life consequences of the utopian liberal dreams that they cook up

to assuage their white guilt, which is based on ideological errors. Can you blame this woman? Her town was taken away from her. Her family's heritage and inheritance, cultural inheritance, was taken away from her. If the British did this kind of thing to a town in India, it would be condemned as imperialism and cultural genocide. And has been, by the way. Yet in this case, you can flood a country intentionally, as a matter of federal policy,

you can flood a country with a very particular people who have radically different customs and language from the people in that town. You can radically change that town, just yank the polity away from those people, and it's totally fine. Actually, they have it coming. And why do they have it coming? Because they're poor white people. And poor white people are terrible.

and they don't have any rights, and we just need to abolish their culture entirely. That's what the liberals are saying. And occasionally, not even that often, but occasionally, the poor white people say, hey, what gives, guys? And when they do that, they're called deplorable and irredeemable and racist and xenophobic. But something tells me those liberals who are implementing these policies. policies. They're not importing the Haitian migrants to their neighborhoods. They don't want to live with those consequences. So of course, the Libs are trying to make all of this about racism. Maxine Waters, one of the gifts that keeps on giving in the liberal establishment, absolutely

terrible, but she expresses what the Libs really believe. She goes on MSNBC and she says, people hate these Haitians. They hate these Haitians and they hate them because they're black and they speak Creole. Well, let me just say this, that Haitians have been the victims of, you know, not only our country but Canada and France for years historically. They're black, they're poor. It's the poorest country in the hemisphere. They have been exploited. And it continues. all the time. They are not, it does not appear that they are seeing in the same way that they see others.

Well, others don't eat geese from the park or do other things that this particular group is doing. But it can never be about what this group is doing. And it's not just the Haitians, by the way. Maxine Waters says the Haitians are viewed fundamentally differently. No, I think the Haitians are viewed in pretty much the same way as all of the other groups of people who have either immigrated, illegal. or have been forced on these small towns by the liberal presidential administrations

in contradiction to what the people actually want. They're viewed as foreigners. I recently gave a speech on Dante at the Intercollegiate Studies Institute, which is available on YouTube right now. I know some people have been asking about it. And in it, Dante's great-great-great-great-grandfather gives him some political advice in heaven and says, you know, the confusion of peoples, the mixture of peoples is always the beginning of ills in the city. And he's taking this lesson from Aristotle. It's not that the immigrants are bad

in themselves. It's not that Haitians are bad in themselves. The Haitians do bad things like perform cannibalism and voodoo. Haiti, she points out, you know, Haiti is the only successful slave revolt in history. And they've had a lot of problems ever since then. You know, if you're going to create an island of slaves, that's going to have political ramifications down the line. So Haiti, through its development and its history, it's had all sorts of terrible problems, and you're seeing that today, not just economic, but cultural, spiritual, cannibalism, and voodoo. But it's not that Haitians are bad people in themselves, exactly. It's not that Mexicans or Guatemalans or Hondurans or Nicaraguans or whoever. It's not that people from Sweden

or Timbuktu are bad in themselves. The question for immigration is just, do you they fit? Do they fit? Can they be assimilated? Is it too many people? Is it can, is, is, is the culture strong enough? Does the culture benefit from this kind of migration? And the obvious answer is no. The people have been saying in America for decades, no, it's just too much. And our political class doesn't give a damn. What worse still, they do here when the people say we want less migration. And they, they want to contradict that. They want to give the people the exact opposite policy that they desire and that would help the country. There's so much more to say first, though,

Speaking of justice, this was a hidden gem from Stephen Crowder. Crowder went undercover James O'Keefe style, or one of his staff members one undercover James O'Keefe Stowell and spoke to the top spokesman for the Southern District of New York.

So this is a top spokesman for the DOJ, specifically Southern District of New York, which is where one of the places where Trump was being prosecuted. And this guy, Nicholas Biaz, public affairs director for this office, admitted on hidden camera that the Trump prosecutions are a perversion of justice. Before he decided to Did you know who was? I'm gladden. Who I've known for 15 years. He used to work in my office. I'm not sure what he wants to be,

but I know he's not happy just being the DM in New York County. So now he's very ambitious. Every real estate person in the New York does what he did. Nobody's ever been charged with us. It's all bad. You know, it's a perversion of justice.

No, who's stacking charges and rearranging things just to make a fit of a case. No, the answer. No, the answer. State levels are wild west. They're like idiots, they don't care, they're all political. Um, so yeah, this guy's probably gonna try to lock them up. And there is gonna be, it's gonna be ugly. They're so obsessed with getting here.

Who is they? The Democrats are so obsessed with getting him that they're going to pervert justice and do anything no matter how ugly. That's true. And I guess it's got, you always feel kind of bad for these guys who think they're going on dates and then they're spilling the beans. But it's important to do because here you've got the top flack, the guy whose job it is to shill for the DOJ in the Southern District of New York. And he's admitting on camera, yeah, this is a complete. perversion of justice. Alvin Bragg is way ambitious and it's really bad. Yeah. But that video won't change anyone's mind. Everyone knows that. The Democrats might tell us publicly that the reason they're

prosecuting Trump is because no one is above the law, but they want to abolish prisons and they want to let all the criminals go free. So this isn't about anyone being above the law. They want to ignore the law. this is about getting Donald Trump, getting revenge on the man who wasn't supposed to win in 2016. And then even probably the most charitable interpretation you could take is this is about stopping literal Hitler. Democrats have gone all in and said that Donald Trump is literal Hitler. Well, if he's literal Hitler, then you can do anything to stop him. Anything would be justified according to the liberal mindset. This actually ties into what we were talking about during that controversial Tucker Carl's,

an interview about World War II last week when I said, you know, people are focusing on the history and, you know, I thought the interview went a little soft on the mustache man, as I pointed out, and was a little bit of a selective history. And so the history is being debated. But I said, it's really, the history isn't really the point here. The point that is salient and that is interesting is the point on how history plays into myth. Because all polities require some kind of myth, some kind of narrative that gives us a lens through which to view our present society. And World War II, being the biggest, craziest, deadliest war ever,

is of course going to play a large role in that, putting aside any other political considerations. And so what did we get out of the myth following World War II? Well, you get the person of Hitler, who the real Hitler, the historical Hitler, very, very evil man did lots of very, very evil things. But not even Hitler was Hitler, in the sense that the role that Hitler plays in our mythos is as the incarnation of absolute evil.

We don't call people the devil anymore. We don't say, that man, he's the devil. That man, he's Satan. We say, no, that guy, he's Hitler. That guy's literally Hitler. Hitler has now become a substitute for the devil. And this myth has in a way created the mirror image of Christianity. In Christianity, you have the incarnation of absolute good.

and what a society desires is to be to be most like Jesus. You know, what would Jesus do? In this modern liberal conception, there is no incarnation of absolute good. It's not merely that you have good and then evil is the privation of the good. It's that you have the incarnation of absolute evil and then good is just a kind of privation of evil. The thing you want to do is not be the most good. It's not to be the most like our Lord. the thing you want to do is be the least like Hitler.

You know, are you more or less a Nazi? It's kind of the question. And so in this case, the Democrats have defined Trump. They've said, no, yeah, Reagan was Hitler and George W. Bush was Hitler. And even Mitt Romney was kind of Hitler probably, but Dick Cheney was definitely Hitler, even though Dick Cheney now supports the Democrats, so he's not Hitler anymore. But Trump, that guy now, in the year of our Lord, 2004, that guy is literally Hitler. so we can do anything to stop him. That's why the video won't change minds. It feels good that

at least we're not being totally gaslit. We're not having to pull our hair out. You know, the libs are admitting, yet we're right. The conservatives, rather, are right. The prosecutions of Trump were a total perversion of justice, but it doesn't matter because we're beyond the law. We're beyond the constitution. When you face an existential, this is a salient political point. When you face an existential threat to the entire polity, the rules can be broken in order to save the rules because the rules are for the body politic, not the other way around. Our country is not for the Constitution. The Constitution is for the flourishing of our country. So, okay, Trump is literally Hitler. January 6th, January 6th is the worst day in the history of the

world. Trump constitutes an existential threat to the republic, as Joe Biden said, launched his presidential campaign on that. They're still saying it, many of them even after President Trump was nearly assassinated. So, okay, yeah, you caught the DOJ spokesman admitting it's all bogus, but it doesn't matter, we're going to do it anyway. We've got to stop Hitler. Now, speaking of perversions, not just of justice, but of desire, the mind. It was a really gross tweet that was posted yesterday by Sam Lesson, former vice president of product at Facebook. This came to my attention thanks to a Harold, not Harold Bloom, the late literary critic,

but Arthur Bloom, an interesting writer and tweeter who posted this. observation. Sam Lesson said, what a beautiful business, OnlyFans, is. Zero venture capital, most successful creator platform by a mile. OnlyFans, of course, is a porn platform. And it's a porn platform that entices young girls to post videos and photos of themselves being degraded to create a subscriber base. And then, look, you see right here, OnlyFans says, this is all in billions of dollars. The user spend, $6.6 billion. And then

1.3 of that goes to platform revenue. 0.48 of that goes to the cost of sales. 0.82 is gross profit, 0.17 operating expenses. Then from the gross profit, you get 0.65 operating profit. Then 0.17 goes to taxes.

Net profit, $480 million. The rest of the money, which is the lion's share, $5.3 billion, goes to the creators, the creators being the self-actualized porn actresses. That's incredible, isn't it? A $6.6 billion company, $5.3 billion going to the creators, the rest going to run the business. What a beautiful business model.

Zero venture capital, most successful creator platform by a mile. And all the business model requires is an endless and increasing number of gullible girls being tricked into becoming prostitutes. That's all it takes. And then you get this beautiful business model. And look at all the money they can make. The business can make money without having to go out and raise seed funding and venture capital. They don't need to worry about any of that. They just get the money from porn addicted perverts who are enticed to hand over their money to a company that also entices gullible teenage and 20-something-year-old girls to degrade themselves permanently on the internet and make

themselves into prostitutes. What a beautiful business model, isn't it? This kind of chart, and that kind of take from the vice president of Facebook, the public square, one of the largest platforms on the internet where people speak to one another, it almost makes one want to be a communist. It shows you such the evil side of capitalism. It always, it always, it almost. It, I'm not quite ready to pick up the hammer and sickle. Communism's also evil. But it shows you the real moral hazards of capitalism divorced from a moral order. What a beautiful business model. I guess it is. If you worship GDP, if you worship material wealth, if you worship the almighty dollar above all things, then this is a beautiful business model. But of course, it's not just free. It's not just free money as the former vice president of Facebook wants to pretend. There's no, nothing. Nothing is just totally free, other than redemption offered to us by our Lord. Other than God himself intervening in history, nothing is really free. There's no such thing as a free lunch. So what's the cost? Well, the transaction cost is your soul. What profiteth a man to make $6.6 billion

and see a lot of naked ladies on the internet if it costs him his soul? What does it profit a country to boost the economy? Maybe. Does it count as boosting the economy if the economic transaction is just a bunch of perverts forking over cash to women to prostitute themselves? Is that really good for the real economy of a country? Does that make us more productive? Does that make us more competitive? I don't think so.

I think it makes us less productive and less competitive. That's a good example of an economic statistic. that does not reflect economic reality. But we, in our modern, liberal age, we put so much faith in statistics. We put so much faith in scientists and statisticians, sophisters, economists, economists, and calculators, giving us a bunch of models that reflects a material reality supposedly, and the material world supposedly reflects all of reality. But it's not.

Here's one externality to this particular model. you're trading your soul and degrading yourself forever and compromising your family and all the rest of it. And the people who are saying this sort of thing are running our country. Former Vice President of Product at Facebook, the kind of person who's controlling the public square in a self-governing republic, supposedly, in which the public square and speech and discourse and persuasion is how we govern ourselves. Not looking good. Forget about whatever Kamala Harris's stolen platform says. if this is the way our elites are thinking, yikes, we are in trouble. Now, we're going to find out what our elites are thinking in even more explicit terms tonight because we're going backstage for the presidential debate between Trump and Kamala,

a debate that could determine America's 47th president. History is unfolding. We are inviting you to witness it with us on Daily Wire Plus as we simulcast the full debate. When the debate is over, Benchabur on Mount Washington, Dr. Cleveland, Jeremy, Boring, and I will break it all down. We will separate the facts. and the logic from the nonsense.

Do not miss our special backstage presidential debate tonight on DailyWire Plus. My favorite comment yesterday is from Ryan L3899, who says, So Trump gave Kamala the worst of the Republicans and took the best of the Dems. That man just proved he's still a dealmaker. That's so true.

We lost, what, we lost Liz Cheney. I still kind of like Dick Cheney, but he's supporting his daughter. It's annoying. And so, okay, we lost Cheney and some of the bushes. And okay. And in exchange, we got the most prominent living Kennedy. That's pretty good. And Tulsi Gabbard, who I really like, I really like Tulsi, even though she's still kind of a lib on some things.

But another thing, she's great. She's better than many Republicans. So, yeah, I don't know. That's a good deal. I guess that's the art of the deal. Now, speaking of prostitutes in the establishment media, ahead of tonight's debate, the Media Research Center analyzed all broadcasts of ABC World News Tonight with David Muir. David Muir, I think I'm pronouncing that correctly, is the anchor of that show. I remember my grandmother used to love watching him. She thought he was a handsome young man. I think a lot of grandmothers watch this guy. know, this is people who are accustomed to watch in the old network news broadcasts.

They just want the straight facts. None of this spin. None of my grandmother was quite Republican and conservative. But still, there was this holdover from the days when they thought they could really trust the network news, not to be partisan, not to be biased, but just to give them the facts. So, okay, does David and Weir and ABC World News Tonight, do they just give the facts? According to MRC, reviewing all 100 campaign stories. that aired on this ABC show from the day Harris entered the race

July 21st through September 6th that includes weekends the analysts found 25 clearly positive statements about Harris from the show's reporters anchors from voters who were being interviewed from other nonpartisan sources they found

zero negative statements about Kamala Harris even if you're the biggest Harris fan in the world even if you were a died in the world Democrat There's nothing about Harris you want to criticize. This woman got run out of the Democrat primary for president before the first primary in 2020. You got nothing to say about her? That's strange.

So that means that ABC World News Tonight and David and we are the moderator for tonight's debate has a 100% positive spin score for Harris. How about Trump? I think they were positive or negative about Trump. MRC found just five clearly positive comments about Trump during that period of time, 66 negative statements. That means that ABC was 7% positive about Trump and 93% negative about Trump. Furthermore, forget about just the positive and the negative. ABC World News tonight with anchored by tonight's debate moderator, never once referred to Harris as a liberal or progressive. Never once. NBC, to their credit, called Harris liberal or

progressive. CBS, to their credit, the other network station called Harris liberal or progressive, not ABC. Because to be liberal or progressive is to be not moderate, to be not conservative, it's going to turn off certain voters. They didn't do that. Kamala Harris is the most progressive, most liberal farthest left senator when she was in the Senate to the left of Bernie Sanders. ABC didn't think that was newsworthy. Didn't think her political leanings were newsworthy at all. So what can we expect tonight? The one really delightful little fact about tonight is it appears that the Harris campaign finally acquiesced and accepted the debate rules to turn off the candidates' respective microphones when the other is speaking. It was a rule proposed by Joe Biden. That was a rule that Trump did not want to

accept. But the Democrats thought it would help the Democrats when Biden was the nominee or the presumptive nominee. And so Trump agreed to it. It ended up helping Trump. And then Kamala's campaign said, no, no, we got to get rid of that rule. And why? Because we said from the top of the show, Kamala does not have a policy platform. Kamala didn't have a, didn't have a policy platform on her website until I bullied her into it. She then stole her policy platform alternately from Joe Biden. and Donald Trump, she's got nothing that she could bring tonight. She wants to chart a new way forward. She is not a new way forward.

She is the incumbent, effectively. So the only thing she can do is be a sassy, identity politics playing, kind of black lady who yells and snaps her fingers at Donald Trump, the mean white man with a tint of orange. That's all. The only thing they were hoping for tonight was Trump saying something and Harris saying, excuse me, excuse me, excuse me. That was her entire debate with Mike Pence when she was Biden's running mate and Pence was Trump's running mate. Excuse me.

That was it. She didn't say anything substantive. So she was trying to do that. And because of the debate rules that the Democrats insisted upon for the first debate between Trump and Biden, she can't do that. Democrats hoisted on their own pittard. Now, it's not just ABC among the networks that has been lying. This is a story I meant to get to it last week.

I want to make sure we get to it, though, before it falls out of the news. This is going to show you how the media are going to play, regardless of what happens tonight, how they're going to play every day from now until the election. Tom Cotton, Republican Senator, was on NBC's Meet the Press. Tom Cotton pointed out that Kamala Harris never met with those 13 fallen U.S. service members during the extremely bungled withdrawal from Afghanistan under the Biden-Harris administration. Kristen Welker, the supposed journalist and news reporter who was interviewing Tom Cotton, tried to correct him.

And honored the sacrifice of those young men and women, but she hasn't. She never has spoken to them or taken a meeting with them. They did meet with them during the dignified transfer. It's because of her. They were with them at the dignified transfer. Her and Joe Biden's incompetence, those 13 Americans were killed in Afghanistan. Okay, what Kristen Walker just said, no, no, no, she did meet with them. She met with them at this ceremony, and she, that is not true, as even NBC had to admit.

Meet the press posted later on that day. On our broadcast this morning, we incorrectly implied that both President Biden and Vice President Harris attended the dignified transfer of 13 American service members killed during the Afghanistan withdrawal. was in attendance, but Harris was not. Incorrectly implied? You didn't incorrectly imply anything. You declared it as fact. There was no implication. There was no insinuation.

It was a blunt declaration of fact that was false. You lied, or your news lady, Kristen Welker, just doesn't know anything and just completely speaks without knowledge. But the one thing I know you did not do is incorrectly imply. these people, NBC News, lied or otherwise told to falsehood on the air with the audacity to correct a Republican senator who was right in that instance. And then you certainly lied in your supposed correction. Whether or not, look, maybe Christian Welker, maybe these NBC journalists are complete ignorant hacks. Could be. I don't put it past them.

But I certainly know that the press team that came out afterward and corrected the record. they lied. That was intentional. There was no way that these people just accidentally watched the wrong footage or something. I don't know. They didn't quite notice what they themselves did. We incorrectly implied. No, you lied. Right there at least. You got it completely wrong. With these people, even their corrections are lies. Now, speaking of chicanery, this is an important story I want to get to before the end of the show today, before the member of segmentum and before we get into the debate tonight. overall, I'm feeling pretty good about the election. I'm feeling increasingly better about Pennsylvania.

I'm feeling okay in the swing states. And especially, you know, tonight's debate will affect the direction of the race. However, there is a threat looming, and this is in Wisconsin. Wisconsin has pretty good voter laws. Okay, Wisconsin, unlike certain other states, has pretty tight voter ID requirements, with one exception. and this was identified by the Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty released a research report that showed that there are 144,347 people in Wisconsin classified as indefinitely confined. What is indefinitely confined?

It means they can cast an absentee ballot without showing an ID. Now, how many people are indefinitely confined? Well, the numbers have changed quite a lot. During the 2020 election, the indefinitely confined rate skyrocketed in Wisconsin. And during that election, I'll add tens of thousands of people to cast absentee ballots.

Tens of thousands of people, that could be the election in Wisconsin. Wisconsin's going to be a very close election. Wisconsin was part of the reason that Donald Trump got elected in 2016, tens of thousands of votes. Now, according to this organization, Wisconsin has a strong voter ID requirement in place,

but there is one loophole that is ripe for exploitation. Absolutely right. Republicans need. to engage in whatever lawfare we can to slow this down. Bobby Kennedy, just to show you an example of how we can still affect the ballots this late in the game, Bobby Kennedy is fighting in certain states to get his name off of the ballot. Certain state secretaries of state are not allowing him to get his name off the ballot,

even after they fought with him to get his name on the ballot in the first place. But his fight over whether or not he'll appear on the ballot is actually delaying the ballot, which is good, because we know that when we have one, Weeks and weeks and months and months of voting, not only is that unfair for a campaign, means that the candidates can't continue to make their case, have debates, present information to the people. But we know also that makes the system ripe for abuse, for exploitation, for fraud. It's hard to keep your eyes on the ballot boxes with the same kind of intensity that you would on election day for days and days and weeks and weeks and months and months. We need serious lawfare in Wisconsin.

This is a loophole that could cost Trump in the state. Okay, it's T-He-E-E-T Tuesday. The rest of the show continues. Now, you do not want to miss it. Become a member-use code NOLS, so check out for two months free on all annual plans. Republicans are Nazis. You cannot separate yourselves from the bad white people. Growing up, I never thought much about race. Never really seemed to matter that much, at least not to me. Am I racist? I would really appreciate it if you love. I'm trying to learn. I'm on this journey. I'm going to sort this out. I need to go deeper undercover. They don't say I'm racist. Joining us now is Matt. Certified DEI expert.

Here's my certification. What you're doing is you're stretching out of your white. This is more for you and this for you. Is America inherently racist? The word inherent is challenging there. I want to rename the George Washington Monument to the George Floyd Monument. America is racist to its bones. So inherently.

Yeah. This country is a piece of... White folks, trash. White supremacy. White woman. White boy. Is there a black person around? What's a black person right here?

Does he not exist? Hi, Robin. Hi. What's your name? I'm Matt. I just had to ask who you are because you have to be careful. Never be too careful. They're going to say you racist.
