Some people were very upset with me yesterday for titling the show breaking massive JFK file drop, explained and then not talking at all about the 63,000 JFK assassination files that the government released. I want to be very clear. I make no apology. There was no false advertising. I made good on my promise because my show yesterday revealed precisely as much new information about the JFK assassination as is contained in those files. I want to see if I have this straight. Maybe I'm a little thick. Maybe I'm missing something. People believe that President Kennedy was murdered by the CIA, the mob, the Soviets, the Israelis, the Cubans, the Fed, the deep State, lbj, George Bush, or some combination of those players. They believe that our government is so evil that it covered up the murder of a president for 60 years and then violated a federal law mandating the release specifically of those documents for 33 years. But now they believe the government is just gonna tell us. Is that. That's the theory. Okay, cool, great. Sounds good. Let me know. Just let me know. I haven't read through them all. You tell me what you find in those 60,000 pages. I can't wait to hear about the smoking gun, which I'm sure we're going to hear about any day now. Probably right after we learn the real story about Jeffrey Epstein. I'm Michael Knowles. This is the Michael Knowles Show. Welcome back to the show. Will the vast majority of Americans have their federal income tax just completely eliminated? That is what the Trump administration is suggesting. That really that makes me even more patriotic than I already was. There's so much more to say first though, go to showallegiance.com I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America. The flag that was made right here in America by the good folks at Allegiance Flag supply. This flag, this is the flag to get. Okay? Hand sewn American flag made in Charleston, South Carolina.

This is the one. Don't get some cheap Chinese made American flag. That kind of undercuts the point, doesn't it? Go get the flag. Fly it in front of your home.

Right now you'll save 35 bucks off your complete flag set. Showallegiance.com for American flags made the American way. The JFK files thing reveals a degree of political innocence and naivete that I actually find charming. I want to be very clear. The thing that I'm laughing about is not the notion that JFK was not killed by a lone gunman who had no connections to anyone. I'm not laughing at the suggestion that some other groups or individuals were involved in the murder of jfk. It is totally plausible to me that JFK was actually murdered by the Italian, Jewish Cuban mobsters who were worked for George Bush and Lyndon Johnson. I'm not even really joking. I'm joking about 20%. I don't know, there could be some conspiracy. An American President was murdered. The thing that I'm laughing at is that the people who think that believe that the government's just gonna tell us if that happened, if it were some combination or just even the individual conspiracy plot by the CIA or the Soviets or the Israelis or the Cubans or the LBJ or the George Bush or like whatever, you will never find out about that. The document would not exist anymore. It's just amazing. On the one hand it reflects this very jaded view of the gall. You know, it's like a guy with a cigarette, you think you know the government. I know the government. I've been looking into these files for years. Oh, the kind of corruption. Yeah. Oh, it's so bad that this government, you can't trust a thing they do now. I can't wait to read the 80,000 pages they just gave me. That'll probably tell me the truth. That won't just be a huge waste of time. Oh my goodness gracious. It's like whiplash. So anyway, I'm not going to look at all in the JFK files. Please, be my guest. Read through all of them. Let me know, Let me know if you find anything juicy. I, I don't think you will. If I were a gambling man. Okay, now, turning away from Kennedy, but still speaking of Harvard men. This article is like an Onion headline or a Babylon Bee headline. Harvard University is launching a remedial math course because Harvard students. Harvard is supposed to Be the best, at least one of the best schools in the country. Harvard students can't do basic math anymore. So this is from the Harvard Crimson. I'm not even reading it from some outside group. Harvard is essentially putting this press release out themselves. Harvard launches new Intro Math course to address pandemic learning loss. Hold on. To address pandemic learning loss, the Harvard math department will pilot a new introductory course aimed at rectifying a lack of foundational algebra skills among Harvard students. According to Harvard's Director of Introductory Math, Brendan A. Kelly, the course, Math MA5 will run along other math courses with an expanded five day schedule. They need five days a week to teach the Harvard students remedial math, but they say it's totally understandable because of pandemic learning loss. Hold on, hold on. I understand the COVID lockdowns did interrupt learning at schools all around the country. That should not have affected Harvard students. To get into Harvard, even today, at least until recently, was still really, really hard to get into those top schools. I'm not saying to graduate. To graduate who? Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Stanford, all those schools is actually relatively easy. The grade inflation is rampant. But to get in is still very, very hard. Missing a few math courses should not affect your ability to do the work at Harvard. I don't believe that Covid is responsible for the remedial math class at Harvard. These kids should have figured out foundational algebra in sixth, seventh grade. It wouldn't have mattered if they missed a few years in high school. I don't think Covid is responsible. You know what else happened in 2020 at Harvard wasn't just that Covid messed up the schedule. You know what else happened in 2020? Harvard removed the requirement that students take the SAT and ACT to get in. Harvard removed standardized testing to let its students in. This is also around the time that Harvard was fighting tooth and nail to keep its affirmative action racial discrimination policies in place. If I were a gambling man, I suspect that has a lot more to do with Harvard students not being able to do basic math than Covid. Now 2020, Harvard says we're going to get rid of the SAT, the act they've announced last year. They're going to bring the SAT and the act back. Why? Because. Because the students are not of the same intellectual caliber that they used to be. Because it turns out standardized tests aren't everything, but they do reflect some realities of competence and intelligence. They just do. And Harvard doesn't like that. And Harvard has this vision, this social justice, leftist DEI vision that it's going to create a class that focuses more on racial identity or sexual identity or blah, blah, blah, over raw intelligence, ability to learn academic skills. And this is the consequence of that. Harvard can do that. Harvard is well within its rights to say, we were once among the preeminent universities in America. We are the oldest university in America. We were the most prestigious. We now, we were that thing. Because of our extreme academic rigor, we now want to confer that prestige on people based on criteria other than academic rigor. We want to confer it to people based on their race or based on their sexual desires or based on their social justice, leftist activism in their extracurriculars in high school, whatever. They can do that, but they cannot then expect the students to be able to keep up with the old academic standards. The inevitable result of that kind of social engineering is to lower academic standards to the point that you now have remedial math at Harvard. Absolutely hilarious. Speaking of all of those sexual minorities and all of these kind of DEI initiatives, Cynthia Nixon is an actress. I think she ran for governor of New York, too. Cynthia Nixon's an actress, and she has just come out at some rally and made the claim that not only is her child trans, the child she has with her quote unquote wife, but her nieces or nephews are trans, and actually her children's friends are trans. And, well, she can explain the pattern.
