Nancy Pelosi (8:51)

On January 6th, with violence against the Constitution, against the Congress, and against the United States Capitol, we beg the President of the United States to send in the National Guard. He would not do it. And yet, in a contra constitutional way, he has sent the National Guard into California. Something is very wrong with this picture.

Michael Knowles (9:20)

Something is wrong here. You see the argument. Oh, Trump, he's so happy to send in the National Guard to la, where he's politicizing the protests of the migrants. But on January 6, when I begged him to send in the National Guard and he refused to do it. So clearly Trump does not have a consistent view of the National Guard or of law enforcement. He is just playing politics. And the proof is I begged him to send in the National Guard on January 6, he did not. And it's all his fault. Which would be at least a somewhat compelling argument had Nancy Pelosi not contradicted the argument herself when she admitted on camera that the failure to send in the national guard on January 6th lies entirely with her.

Nancy Pelosi (10:12)

We have responsibility, Terry. We did not have any accountability for what was going on there, and we should have. This is ridiculous. You're going to ask me in the middle of the thing when they've already breached the inaugural stuff that. Should we call the Capitol Police? I mean, the National Guard. Why weren't the National Guard there to begin with? They thought that they had sufficient resources. There's not a question of how they had been. They don't know. They clearly didn't know. And I take responsibility for not having them just prepare for more.

Michael Knowles (10:54)

I take responsibility. I take responsibility for not having them prepare for more. Why weren't the National Guard there? I take responsibility. That was Nancy Pelosi in a film made, I believe, by her daughter, which really only came out because of all of the investigations into January 6th. Libs really hoisted with their own petard on that one. Now, in the year of our Lord 2025, Nancy Pelosi says it was Trump's fault the National Guard wasn't there. Well, hold on, lady. In a apparently candid moment closer to the event, you admitted it was your fault. So the whole argument falls apart. Trump is just politicizing the National Guard. No, no, he's been pretty consistent. He wants to restore law and order. You guys hate law and order, which is why you encouraged not only the LA Deportation riots, where you said, get out in the street. Come on, go out there. Make sure you tell the Trump administration what you think. But you did this during George Floyd, and you do this all the time. And you don't want law enforcement because you think that a little bit of anarchy on the streets will help you gain a little bit more power. And now that Trump has unified government and he's wielding the government to make you look terrible and to enforce justice, two very important priorities. Now all of a sudden, you object to it. And the only way you can object to it is by lying. And now we got you dead to rights in the lie because of the video. The national card will remain there. The Marines will remain there. We will continue to arrest your anarchistic and arsonist associates. And you can cry about it, but it's not gonna look good for you. And the people know exactly what's up. Cause we can see it with our own two eyes. I'm going to return to my very important point. First, though, I want you to go to helixsleep.com knowles I love the mountains. I love the rolling hills.

It's the Michael Knowles show, lest you forget and at checkout so they know that we sent you helixsleep.com knowles speaking of inadvertent liberal admissions regarding the immigration issue, my favorite bit, my single favorite piece of coverage from the entire LA riots comes from the Washington Post headline, an ICE Raid Disrupts Life on Martha's Vineyard. Here's the post on the social media posting of this article. Life on Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket has been disrupted after migrant workers were shackled and boarded onto Coast Guard boats, igniting fear among undocumented workers who formed the backbone of the island's workforce. The backbone, these illegal aliens were the workers understood primarily in their role as labor, cheap labor that does not have recourse to legal protections. They're the backbone of the workforce of some of the ritziest places in the country. Martha's Vineyard in Nantucket. Now, life. Life on Martha's Vineyard has been disrupted. Can you imagine? The Washington Post reporting, April 12, 1861. Life in Charleston has been disrupted. The reliable labor force is threatened by raids from the federal government. Yeah. Yeah, I think you're right. Now, the lib, a lot of the libs, I think, and some of the squishier conservatives, but a lot of the libs, they're probably not even conscious of it. But the reason they are so eager to defend illegal immigration is because it provides them effectively with slave labor, if not quite slave labor, at least indentured servant labor. At least it's pretty close to slave labor. When they say who's gonna pick our grapes and who's gonna wash our houses and who's gonna mow our lawns? What they're saying is, what they're saying is, what are you gonna do when you have to Pay a fair market rate to workers who have recourse to legal protections for all of these things in your home. And they're not just talking to the super rich. Basically every person in America, at least every person in and around a major city, any kind of city. I don't know. What are you talking about? You're talking about 80% of Americans at this point regularly interact with illegal alien labor. There are a lot of illegal aliens in the country. Maybe not. If you're truly in the middle of the sticks outside of Palookaville, maybe then you don't interact with illegal alien labor. But if you're in or around anything even resembling a city, you do. And so it's not just rich uncle Pennybags who has the illegals cleaning their private jets before they take off. It's everyone. Everyone is using Uber Eats. Okay? Or any of these delivery services. Anyone who has a yard, who's paying for any kind of landscaping services. It's anyone who's using all sorts of the service industry, fast food. Chances are you're interacting with illegal alien labor. And if we deport the illegals, your costs are gonna go up. And that means that the bougie little urbanite or suburbanite is not gonna have access to his slave labor anymore. And that's gonna disrupt life on Martha's Vineyard. So I made the comparison, obviously, to the outbreak of the Civil War, Charleston V. Life around Fort Sumter has been really disrupted. However, we should be clear. Cause I don't wanna be accused of hypocrisy or something. The problem with illegal immigration is not primarily that it violates the rights of illegal alien workers. That's part of it. The problem with illegal immigration is primarily one of sovereignty and justice. Are we a sovereign nation? Do we get to decide who comes in here, who is entitled to our resources, who gets to establish himself here, and whose family gets to vote? That's the primary issue. It's not just, you know, a sob story for the. The illegal aliens. But that is part of it. This is why I think the Civil War analogy is actually pretty apt. The Civil War was not primarily about slavery. It was. It was largely about slavery, but it was not primarily about slavery. It was about sovereignty and the political order. What kind of political order are we going to live under? Do states have the right to secede from the union? These were the big political order questions. And the inciting incident was the slavery crisis. That's all true. Same thing here. But this is what they're worried about. Oh, that life. That life. You're right. The life on Martha's Vineyard and the life in Nantucket, that is going to be disrupted. And your life is gonna be disrupted. By the way, I made this point warning my fellow conservatives. If Trump actually deports 16 million illegal aliens, you're gonna complain about it. I'm gonna complain about it. Because costs for a lot of things are gonna go up. It's not as though illegal immigration was just some uniformly terrible thing inflicted on us by the outside party. It was just the Democrats. It wasn't just the Democrats. It was just the liberals. It wasn't just the liberals. It was this unholy concoction of squishy Chamber of Commerce Republicans and opportunistic Democrats who wanted a permanent electoral majority coming together and bringing in this foreign population because they thought that they could get an advantage out of it. And there were advantages to it. And if we get rid of it, we will lose those advantages. Prices will go up. I think sovereignty is worth the cost. I think a cohesive society is worth the cost. I think not pressing 3 for English is worth the cost, but there will be costs. No doubt about it. Now, last point on this from another paper of record, New York Times. Really messing up here. Headline. The Mexican flag becomes a potent LA protest symbol. That's true. Totally right about that. Trump officials have cast demonstrators waving the Mexican flag as insurrectionists. But for many protesters who are Mexican American, the flag represents pride in their heritage. Yeah, okay, really funny coming from the New York Times. What did the liberals say when. When Southerners said, you know, look, the Confederate flag doesn't represent some awful, racist, terrible thing. It just represents pride in our heritage. Gotta ban it from Amazon. Have to ban it from all of public life. But when it's a Mexican flag, when it's not even a flag that's remotely associated with your own country, then we have to wave it. It's a proud symbol of our heritage. Okay? Trump could not have played this more perfectly. The fact that the protesters, protesters, the arsonists and the looters, or waving Mexican flags and even the handful of peaceful protesters, however many there are, the fact that they're waving the Mexican flag, Trump could not have scripted that more perfectly. It is politics 101 that whatever you want to do, whatever your political program, you wrap yourself in the country's flag, you have to argue, if you want to be politically effective, you have to argue that. That your political program is coming out of the tradition of your country, that it forms the deepest wellspring of your country. I mean, think about When Abraham Lincoln effectively refounded the country after the Civil War, his famous speeches spoke to the American tradition. In some ways, he was upending the American tradition, but he was making his arguments from within the tradition. Four score and seven years ago. Probably the most famous line of any Abraham Lincoln speech, four score and seven years ago. It says, what I'm doing is the fulfillment of what the people who founded our country wanted to do. And so anything, whatever your political agenda, you need to make that argument if you want to be effective. Some arguments are more plausible than others. The libs seem to have forgotten that. The New York Times seems to have forgotten that. So they come out, they say we. I guess it just flows naturally from their political view, which is that they hate the country and they say the country's evil. So they say, we want to fly the flag of another country. Okay, good luck persuading people. Maybe this is it. Maybe you've so successfully weakened the country that we hate our own flag. I wouldn't bet on it. Trump is so good. Drew Clavin pointed this out. Drew said Trump is really great at driving his opponents crazy. It's not that Trump destroys his opponents, it's that Trump makes his opponents destroy themselves. That's what we're seeing here. Okay? Now the New York Times says, hey Democrats, everyone, all of you fly Mexican flags. That'll persuade the electorate. Okay, good luck. Hold on. Pull over your car. Close your eyes. Sit down.

Broadly, the right supports the state of Israel. Broadly, the left supports Palestine. But it's more complicated than that. There are a handful of Democrats who are still pro Israel. There are especially young conservatives who are much more skeptical of Israel, even open to the Free Palestine movement to some way, which is a little weird. But basically, that's the line. However, I'll say it as a conservative. Israel's gone too far. You know, Greta Thunberg was, she was on a boat going to Gaza for some reason because she hadn't gotten enough media attention in a while and climate change is ridiculous and no one cares about it anymore. So she needed a hit. And she said, all right, well, what's the big issue now? I guess the big issue on the left is the Free Palestine movement. All right, I'm going to forget about the sun monster. I'm going to put on a keffiyeh now. I'm going to get on a boat. She loves the boats. And she goes to Gaza and the boat is intercepted in this war zone by the Israeli military. And the Israelis walk on the ship and there's video and pictures of this. They, rather than, you know, beheading them or something like the Hamas would do, the Israelis give them brioche or what is it? Hala. Hala, the Israeli brioche, Jewish brioche, and give them, you know, I don't know, like drinks and water and stuff. And they take her in. And then they don't hold them captive as Hamas would do. They decide to send them back, including Greta. And what do they do? This is what do they do? Greta is an international celebrity, okay? Greta could fly around in private jets all the time if she wants. She actually somehow manages to engage in transportation that's even less environmentally efficient. But this is a big star, Greta. Those dastardly Jews put her in coach. Can you imagine that? Can you imagine, Greta? Not even comfort. Plus, did the Israelis put this girl in coach? And if you look, actually, she seems to be relatively close to the bathroom. So it's toward the back of the plane. She's fine. She's got a lot of space. It kind of looks like a Covid flight. Remember, during COVID coach was actually often nicer to fly in than first class, if any of you. I still did some business travel during COVID and I'd be envious of my colleagues who were in coach. I'D often get the business class seat. But coach, you could recline. And so she's got room to recline and everything. But coach, greater. It's too much. Enough, Israel, enough. Okay, you've gone too far. I saw someone on X yesterday say I was making fun of the Greta boat thing and said, you know, Michael, I don't agree with Greta Thunberg on everything. In fact, I don't agree with her on much of anything at all. But she has shown great courage and character over the last few months, much more so than you and some of those other conservatives. She's shown great courage and character and clarity on the Free Palestine Movement. I thought, okay, hold on. This is my whole argument on that I don't care all that much about the Israel Palestine issue. I'm not a Muslim, I'm not a Jew, I'm a Catholic. So I'm a little bit of an outsider on this particular conflict. And I don't really know all that much about the 3,000 year history of this conflict. However, just as a rule of thumb, if you're telling me that Greta Thunberg is wrong about everything, like all the way down to first principles, is just really, really wrong about basically everything. But all of a sudden you find yourself agreeing with her on this one issue, which means, coincidentally, that all of a sudden you find yourself agreeing with Democrats, Ivy League professors, Hollywood celebrities, Islamists, all these other people that you would agree they're wrong. All of those other people are also wrong about basically everything. But you suddenly find yourself agreeing with them on this one issue, the Free Palestine movement. Is it possible that you are the one who has aired. Is it possible? Again, I understand that's not an argument from the issue per se. I'm just saying as a rule of thumb, do you think it's likely that disparate groups of people who are often on each other's side, who are wrong about everything, as you would admit, what are the odds that they just happen to be right about this thing and the conservatives and the people like Donald Trump and the people like, I don't know that your favorite conservative intellectual intellectuals or media figures or activists or what, that those people who are generally right about at least a lot of things, if not everything, if not even most, just they're generally right, that they just happen to be totally wrong. And Greta and the Islamists and the Democrats and the Ivy League professors and the Hollywood celebrities just happen to be. What are the odds that that is true? Seems to me a helpful and humble rule of thumb. So you know, if Greta and Hollywood and the Dems and the jihadis and like all these other people are on one side, probably I should not be on that side. Speaking of religion, there is a really unfortunate study that's come out from Pew Research. Christianity is losing share of the global population. This actually relates to the previous story. So good news, Christianity is growing. It is still growing. However, it's losing share of world religions among the global population. What are we losing share to? Muslims. So I'll just read from it. Even as the overall number of Christians counted as one group across denominations. So that's with the splits after the Protestant schism. After the Eastern Orthodox schism, the total number of Christians continues to climb to 2.3 billion. Our share of the world's population decreased by 1.8 percentage points to 28.8, a fall off largely driven by disaffiliation. The Muslim population, on the other hand, increased by 1.8 percentage points to 25.6, according to this Pew report, and that is examining more than 2,700 census surveys and other surveys. So according to Pew Research's Conrad Hackett, it's just striking that there was such a dramatic change in a 10 year period because you might look at those numbers and say, well, is that really that shocking? Are these just regular trends? No, no. Pew says no. This is shocking. Actually, during this time, the Muslim and Christian populations grew closer in size. Muslims grew faster than any other major religion. The reason that this is happening, why are the Muslims gaining ground and the Christians losing ground? The reason this is happening is because the Muslims believe their religion and we don't believe our religion in the West. That's broadly and not just the West. Christianity actually is growing in places like Africa. Christianity, even while it's really suppressed in Asia, still remains strong. Europe is where it's cracking. America, to a lesser degree is where it's cracking because we don't believe our religion. Hilaire Belloq wrote about this. Hilaire Belloc has a great book. I think it's in his book on the Crusades where he says, look, had the Crusaders, the Crusades, which by the way were a defensive war and were completely justified war undertaken by the Christians against the aggressive Muslims. And at some point we should do a series on the Crusades because it's deeply misunderstood, but we came close to winning in the Crusades, the Christian forces, in a way, had the Crusades really been successful, we could have reunited the east and the west after the Great Schism. Regardless, Hilaire Belloc Says, had we taken Damascus and held Damascus, Islam would have been broken. Islam would not have survived. But we didn't. We failed. And so our religion is the one that has cracked up into a zillion different schisms and broken the political unity of Europe and all the rest. Islam. And Hiller Belloc's writing. What was this, 1930 or something? He's writing from a period when Islam was relatively dormant. He said, islam remains fundamentally intact, and it's gonna come back, and it's gonna come back in a strong way. That's what we're seeing happen. Because we don't believe our religion, really. And they do. And these are religions that are not compatible. It's kind of funny. There are people who will. They'll say, hey, I have this idea. We need a new political coalition. We're gonna have a new brand new political coalition, and we're gonna be allies with the Muslims now. And even some people say, we'll be allies with the Muslims. It'll be tougher on the Jews because they're fighting in Israel, Palestine. You say, oh, that's interesting. We're all of a sudden have a great alliance with the Muslims. Look, I wanna win some Muslim votes in places like Michigan and elsewhere. But, you know, we have been fighting as a civilization. We've been fighting against Islam for about 1400 years. You know, within a century or so of the founding of Islam, the Muslim forces were 150 miles outside of Paris. The Battle of Poitiers. Okay? This is. And then they tried to come in again at the Battle of Lepanto. Then they tried to come in again at the Battle of Vienna. Now they're coming in again, and they're being welcomed by the European Union. This is a longer civilizational conflict than just your lifetime, okay? And if we don't get serious about our faith, we're going to lose that civilizational conflict. And frankly, there won't need to be a shot fired if we lose the Hilaire Belloc made another great point, very controversial point. I forget if it was in that book or in a different book. He wrote so many. He said, the faith is Europe and Europe is the faith. Provocative statement, but understood in a modest way. Just saying. The only thing that gives coherence to Europe is the faith. You lose the faith, you lose Europe. Look around that continent, look around our own country as an extension of Europe. Hard not to see the coincidence your dad gave you.

My favorite comment yesterday is from Shuma Padu 1141 who says when that Mexico flag waved, it was on then. This is what allowed Trump to send in the military. Yeah, I think you're right. It was just so such a tactical error from the libs. Some of them knew it, but they were kind of shouted down. The ones who said maybe we should wave the American flag. I mean, I know a small number of patriotic liberals, very liberal people, usually older, very liberal, but very patriotic. Dying breed because of the logic of liberalism, which forces you to turn on your family and your God and your beliefs, sometimes your own sex and your country, to liberate yourself from everything that could place any constraint on you. Certainly, which includes the country, certainly includes the nation. So they have to wave the flags of other countries, but that's very damaging to their political movement. Okay? Speaking of moral frameworks, a lady has gone viral for talking to her daughter about her daughter's supposed in utero memories. Listen to this. It says everything my daughter says she remembers while being in my belly.

Unknown Speaker 2 (35:47)

Your favorite food that you ate in my belly?

Nancy Pelosi (35:50)

Corn.

Unknown Child (35:52)

I love corn. The baby loves corn.

Unknown Speaker 2 (35:55)

I did eat corn. Was it really bright in there or was it dark?

Unknown Child (35:58)

It was dark.

Unknown Speaker 2 (36:00)

It was dark?

Unknown Child (36:01)

Yes.

Unknown Speaker 2 (36:02)

What did it sound like in there?

Unknown Child (36:04)

Sound like music massaging your room?

Unknown Speaker 2 (36:08)

It sounded like my sound machine. In my room?

Unknown Child (36:10)

Yes.

Unknown Speaker 2 (36:12)

No way.

Unknown Child (36:13)

Music. I was hearing music.

Unknown Speaker 2 (36:16)

You were hearing music?

Unknown Child (36:17)

I was sleeping. I was sleeping. Your belly.

Unknown Speaker 2 (36:20)

You were sleeping in my belly?

Unknown Child (36:22)

Yes.

Unknown Speaker 2 (36:23)

You were sleeping in my belly, eating my food. It was dark. It sounded like music, like my sound, like the sound machine in my room have a lot of space in there. Was it really tight?

Unknown Child (36:32)

It was very tight.

Unknown Speaker 2 (36:34)

It was very tight, Yes.

Unknown Child (36:36)

I couldn't get out.

Unknown Speaker 2 (36:37)

You couldn't get out?

Unknown Child (36:38)

No.

Unknown Speaker 2 (36:39)

Were you comfortable in there, though?

Unknown Child (36:41)

No.

Unknown Speaker 2 (36:41)

You weren't?

Unknown Child (36:42)

Nope.

Michael Knowles (36:43)

Okay. So this is how cute, isn't it? This is really cute. Probably this is just a little girl with an imagination and the mother's clearly leading her on. You know, she goes, was there a lot of room in there or was it really, really tight? You know, what do you think the kid's gonna say, the kid's gonna say, oh, probably the thing that got my mother excited. That's what it was. You know, so it's all these leading questions. Whatever. What's interesting about this is not that the little girl can remember being in the womb, which she almost certainly cannot. What's interesting about this is that the mother believes that the little girl remembers when she was in the womb and delights in the girl's supposed memories of being in the womb and then writes this in the caption. Wait. I actually believe that she does remember some things because all the comments she made actually made so much sense. Am I crazy? Before this gets misconstrued. To be clear, all caps. Pro life propaganda is not welcome here. And all caps. You do not have my permission to use my video to support your opinions. Haha. Well, that's what I'm doing, lady. So tough using my video to further justify your own bias. Point of view. And misread. Mislead. What the actual context of the video is, is by definition propaganda. I don't even know what those words mean. I don't think that she knows what that means. Not misleading. What the context of video is. I just play the video, I'm going to tell you what it means. That's propaganda. It's me articulating my correct opinion of things. What you're suggesting is propaganda. You're saying we're gonna give a very partial view of the truth. We're gonna deny uncomfortable truths in advance of my political ideology. She goes, it's really such a beautiful thing when my daughter talks about what she remembers from the womb. But here's the thing. This moment is so special because I chose to have her. Hold on, wait, what? Talk about propaganda. So this woman believes that her daughter can remember what she did in the womb. And this woman finds that so lovable, so adorable, so delightful that she has to videotape it and post it onto the Internet. But she knows that that fact undercuts her other belief in abortion. Because if the baby has memories of what she did in the womb, then the baby is really, truly, undeniably, fully a human person in the womb. If you have memories and you can remember them outside of the womb, by golly, you are indistinguishable even by the most liberal and rigid definition of personhood. So she knows that. She knows it undercuts her abortion position. So then why does she post the video? She knows that this is gonna look bad for her views on abortion. She feels so strongly about that that she has to post this long disclaimer about how. Most of the post is about how much she loves abortion, even though the video has nothing to do with it. Why? Why would she post it? Because she finds the video so delightful and lovable and such a joy. Because her motherly, normal maternal instinct is like, oh, this is so cute. I just want to share this cute little thing with my kid. And she remembers being in the womb, and that's so wonderful. I love it that she's in the womb. It's my precious baby. She got that. But then she's also being pulled by feminism and liberalism and the pro abortion ideology. Say, but I have to. But I still have to do my responsibility and justify killing my precious daughter, whom I love so much.

Unknown Speaker 1 (39:59)

Look what she said.

Michael Knowles (39:59)

She remembers the corn in the womb, but I have to. Don't misconstrue this. You should be able to kill her if you want. Kill your kid if you want. It's good to kill your kid. Actually, the only thing that makes this beautiful, precious, wonderful little video so adorable is the fact that I chose not to kill her. Whoa, man, lady, I'm getting whiplash. I'm getting. I'm going back. What? That's what she says. She says, this moment is so special because I chose to have her. In other words, because I chose not to murder my daughter. That's not. I mean, that does make it special. I'm glad you didn't do that. What makes it special is that your cute little daughter is speaking to you and you're having this meaningful conversation. And what you think makes it extra special is that she has memories from being inside the womb. What makes it notable and remarkable. And the reason you're posting it is, is because of this surprising discovery you think you've made that she was a human being even in the womb. That's the only reason. Otherwise it wouldn't be newsworthy. If the little girl was saying, hey, mommy, yesterday I really liked those chicken nuggets. She wouldn't post it. It's not surprising. What she finds so surprising and delightful about it is, oh, my goodness, I didn't think my daughter was a person in the womb, but actually she was because she has these memories. Supposedly that's not the criterion that distinguishes personhood, but whatever, in her own very confused mind that is. And that's why she's posting it. That's what matters. That's why she's posting it. But then she has to deny that, says, no, no, no. What makes this special is I chose not to murder her. I had the privilege of access to care, the ability to say yes to motherhood when I felt ready. And I've worked so hard to break cycles. Break cycles of what? Grief. And create safety in our home. This is what happens when kids are brought into the world by someone who wanted them not, you know, those kids who are unwanted. We gotta chop their heads off. We gotta suction them out and put them through a razor, even though the kid would look just like my cute little daughter right here. But if they're not wanted, you know, if someone doesn't care for them, then chop them up, who cares? But for my precious daughter, I would never have an abortion, you see, because my precious offspring are too valuable. But all you dirty poor people. Disproportionately black people. All you filthy hoi polloi. Yeah, yeah, chop up your kids. I don't want them. Who wants them? But look how cute mine is. Who had support. Who was stable enough to give them the kind of childhood where they feel safe enough to open up like that. About how they're real persons in the womb who sometimes get chopped up by vacuums and razor blades because of my ideology. Maybe even access those early memories because trauma hasn't clouded everything. Yeah, well, they certainly can't access the early memories if they undergo the trauma of being suctioned out with a vacuum and thrown into razor blades like you are advocating in this post. What a psycho, man. It's not even that she's a psycho. Unfortunately, this point of view is widespread. She's just willfully ignorant and in the thrall of an evil and stupid ideology which describes a lot of people, I'm sorry to say. It's not just that she's got a low IQ or something. Maybe she does, maybe she doesn't. Plenty of people with very high IQs also become willfully ignorant and enthralled. In fact, maybe disproportionately people with high IQs become enthralled to evil and very stupid ideologies. So yeah, it's magical, but it's not random. It's the result of choice, resources, and healing. What? Now we're truly in just woo woo. Wine, mom. Gobbledygoop liberalism. It's not random. It's a result of choice. Yeah, okay, you chose not to kill her. That's great. So now you can discover that she was a person even in your womb, which you love so much. You have to post for everyone, but which you then in the same breath have to deny. Okay, how about you Just follow your gut, lady. This is what a lot of my political philosophy comes down to. Just your gut is usually right. I know you're not allowed to say this. Prejudice usually right. This is what the conservative political philosophy largely comes down to. You know things intuitively. You know things in a way, in the womb. And the natural law is inscribed on every human heart. And our conscious stock of reason is relatively small. And you're not going to be able to write a doctoral dissertation about every single decision you're going to make in life. And you're going to operate off of prejudgment, which is also known as prejudice. And that's not a bad thing. Liberalism tells you prejudice is bad and it can be unjust. You want to make sure it's subject to reason. But you can go with your gut, lady. And when your little daughter was in your guts, you knew she was a person. And now that she's out, you know she's a person still. And the little girl seems to know that she was a person even when she was in your womb. And you can just go with that. If you need to work this hard to convince yourself that your daughter at some point wasn't a human being, give up that ideology. It's not worth it. Today's Woke Wednesday.
