The Brain Trust at the View sees monarchy just around the corner.
You know who told us he was going to be a dictator on day one and damn if he isn't a dictator.
He got back into office and his former chief strategist Steve Bannon just added more fuel to the fire.
Take a look.
Well, he's going to get a third term.
So Trump 28, Trump is going to be president in 28 and people just ought to get accommodated with that.
So what about the 22nd Amendment?
There's many different alternatives.
At the appropriate time, we'll lay out what the plan is, but there's a plan, and President Trump will be the president in 28.
And I actually have come to the conclusion that he is most definitely going to try to remain in power because remember that East Wing, it's going to take a long time to build that.
He is hooking up the White House because he doesn't plan on leaving it.
That's it.
Here's the proof that Trump is going to stay in the White House after his term ends.
He is building stuff on the White House.
He's rebuilding the East Wing.
Now, just a little historical note.
Theodore Roosevelt was the first president to build in the Eastern part.
It was the East Terrace of the White House in 1902.
Theodore Roosevelt, he did leave office after his term.
So that wouldn't have been proof for him.
But President Franklin Roosevelt knocked down that terrace to build the East Wing of the White House in 1942.
In fairness, Franklin Roosevelt, who's, I will remind you, the most prominent Democrat president probably in American history, he did stick around longer than two terms.
He was the American monarch, not a Republican.
He was a Democrat.
They had to pass the 22nd Amendment to stop that from happening again.
Then, though, we fast forward a little bit.
Roslyn Carter, that would be the first lady of Jimmy Carter.
She opened the East Wing as the First Lady's office in the 1970s.
Jimmy Carter happily left after only one term.
Other additions and changes to the White House structure have occurred under President James Monroe, Andrew Jackson, William Howard Taft, Woodrow Wilson, Harry Truman, Richard Nixon.
Richard Nixon added a bowling alley.
None of those men remained in the White House after their terms.
And disappointed, though I am to say it, despite the hysterical ravings of the ladies on the View, I am afraid that President Trump will also leave office at the end of his term, as he already did four years ago.
I'm Michael Knowles.
This is The Michael Knowles Show.
I'm even sorrier to have to say that Courtney Kardashian is now selling lollipops for women's insides.
We'll get to that if we must.

Before we move on, I want to go back to that clip because I've heard this.
I've heard Libs now make this argument to my face that Trump could stay for a third term.
Where is this coming from?
The ladies on the View point to Steve Bannon, who was the White House chief strategist under Trump One and I think CEO or chairman of his campaign first time around.
They say Steve Bannon is proving that Trump intends to stay for a third term.
Now let's listen to what Steve Bannon actually says.
You know who told us he was going to be a dictator on day one and damn if he isn't a dictator.
He got back into office and his former chief strategist Steve Bannon just added more fuel to the fire.
Take a look.
Well, he's going to get a third term.
So Trump 28.
Trump is going to be president in 28 and people just ought to get accommodated with that.
So what about the 22nd Amendment?
There's many different alternatives.
At the appropriate time, we'll lay out what the plan is, but there's a plan and President Trump will be the president in 28.
And I actually have come to the conclusion that he is mostly going to try to return.
Did you catch what he said?
How has no one picked up on this yet?
Am I the only person who has picked up on the joke that Steve Bannon is making?
Steve Bannon says Trump is going to get a third term.
Trump is going to be president in 28.
And then they ask for the clarification.
What about the 22nd Amendment?
Doesn't that limit you to two terms?
He says, we're looking at alternatives.
Don't worry.
We'll explain that as it gets closer.
But just suffice it to say, Trump will be president in 28.
Do you get it?
Do you get what he's doing?
Trump is already going to be president in 2028.
The presidential election will be held in 2028.
The new president, or the third term, the mythical third term for Trump, would not begin until 2029.
The new president will be inaugurated in January 2029.
Notice here, Steve Bannon isn't saying Trump is going to be president in 29 or 30 or 31.
He's saying he'll be president in 2028.
It's a joke.
Well, he said he'd have a third term, right?
The premise is that Trump won the 2020 election, which many Republicans and conservatives continue to maintain, including President Trump, that the Democrats changed all the rules before the election.
There were a ton of irregularities.
There was a lot of contesting of that election.
Trump did leave the White House.
But the premise of the joke is this is Trump's third term.
Trump has a third term.
He won in 16, was president from 17 to 21.
He won in 2020, but he was made to leave the White House.
This is the premise of the whole thing.
And then he won in 2024 with the popular vote and will be president from 2025 through 2028 into the early days of 2029.
That's the joke, guys.
How is it?
I know how no one's gotten it, or I at least know how the left hasn't gotten it, because they bought their own nonsense.
They believed their own press releases.
They said, he's going to be a dictator.
They said this in 2016.
He's going to be a dictator.
He's going to abolish elections.
He's never going to leave.
And then what happens?
They rigged the election in 2020.
I think most honest Democrats would even admit they changed a lot of the rules, in some cases unconstitutionally.
And even then, he left.
The evidence that he would leave and not seek a new term starting in 2029 is he already left.
And he has not seriously expressed interest in staying on again after 2028.
It's a joke.
And the right, I don't know, maybe we're just not paying enough attention to it, or I don't know.
Some of us wouldn't mind Caesar Augustus, Donald Dis Magnus I, but it's not going to happen.
Steve Bannon is a very intelligent guy.
He's choosing his words very carefully here.
He's clearly having fun with the interviewer.
Oh, yeah, we'll talk about the 22nd Amendment.
There are alternatives.
Yeah, the alternative is, according to the premise of the joke, he won the 2020 election, but was not allowed to serve out that term.
And he got his real true third term in 2024 and will be president in 2028.
People need to pay attention to language.
If you want a really good book on language, there's one called Speechless Controlling Words Controlling Minds available wherever find books are sold.
Thank you.
Here's some more evidence that Trump doesn't plan to seek a third or I guess fourth by that premise term.
He was asked about this on Air Force One, and he endorsed a different ticket.
We have great people.
I don't have to get into that, but we have one of them standing right here.
We have JD, obviously.
The vice president is great.
I think Marco's great.
I think I'm not sure if anybody would run against us.
I think if they ever formed a group, it would be unstoppable.
I really do.
I believe that.
I would love to do it.
I have my best numbers ever.
It's very terrible.
I have my best numbers.
You read it.
Am I not ruling it out?
You'll have to tell me.
All I can tell you is that we have a great, a great group of people, which they don't.
They have Jasmine Crockett, a low IQ person.
They have AOC's low IQ.
You give her an IQ test.
Have her pass the exams that I decided to take when I was at Walter Reed.
I took, that's a very hard, they're really aptitude tests, I guess, at a certain way, but they're cognitive tests.
Let AOC go against Trump.
Let AOC go get stroke.
So he won't rule it out.
So then the question becomes, why won't Trump rule out that he's going to run again, even as he endorses another ticket?
He won't rule it out because of the strange historical circumstance of his election.
He won a non-consecutive second term.
This is only the second time in American history this has ever happened.
Grover Cleveland is the only one who did one of these other than Trump.
And so it creates this problem, which, and this was one of the arguments against renominating Trump, though some of us were stalwart about it the whole time, because Trump is a unique world historic figure and obviously has not only remade the Republican Party, but greatly improved the country.
So the ordinary rules don't really apply to Trump.
I think as we've seen time and time again, all the people, including on the right, all the people who told us, oh, Trump will be terrible.
We can't nominate him in 16.
This is the end of the Republican Party.
He's going to lose.
Of course, he beats Hillary.
Oh, no, we have to nominate some other guy in 2024.
So it's ridiculous.
He's obviously the nominee.
No, we can't do it.
He's going to lose.
He wins a popular vote as a Republican the first time in 20 years.
And so they've been wrong about everything.
However, one of the issues that Trump faces is the minute he was elected in November of last year, he became a lame duck, or he could have become a lame duck, right?
Because he can't run for reelection.
However, because Trump is this unique historical figure, the only way that he can keep a little suspense about it is he's, oh, maybe I'll run again.
Oh, what happened?
And then all these little, you know, chattering hens, they're kind of, they like run around like headless chickens.
Oh, no, Trump's going to run again.
Cluck, cluck, cluck.
Oh, no.
He's going to do a Caesar.
Cluck, cluck, cluck, cluck.
And then they all, they just dance to his tune, the no kings protest.
Oh, no, he's going to run again.
So he keeps a lot of juice, which is how he's managed to stay on the right side of virtually every 80-20 issue.
The Democrats are in worse shape being out of power, looking ahead to a midterm election than the worst shape I've ever seen them in my life.
But then he managed to get in there in the same way.
He says, but I think it should be Vance Rubio.
This is very powerful because not only is he looking ahead to a potential new Republican ticket, as would ordinarily be the case when a Republican serves two terms and then tries to pass the baton, he is in a way trying to run the next election as an incumbent.
It's just that he won't be on the ticket.
What he's clearly trying to set the stage for is to avoid a primary so that the Republicans will run virtually as incumbents.
And the way to do that is to take the two top guys, obviously the two top contenders, J.D. Vance and Marco Rubio, and say, hey, don't run against each other, run as a ticket.
And there's been scuttlebud about that going around.
I don't have any particularly inside info, but there has been scuttlebud about that.
It would be weird for Rubio to run as top of the ticket when you've got J.D. Vance, very popular, very effective vice president, already waiting in the wings.
But Rubio's done a phenomenal job.
The one weakness for J.D. Vance heading into the White House when he was an Ohio senator is that he didn't really have foreign policy experience.
Now he's picked up some of that, obviously, as vice president.
But if you get the guy who's the foreign policy guy, very successful Secretary of State, and you say he's going to be bottom of the ticket, they're going to run as a unity ticket, effectively as an incumbent, that's very, very strong.
It would be very hard to beat, though.
Democrats have some options.
We'll get to one of the top options now.
Trump mentioned her.
First of all, I want to tell you about Christian Care Ministry.
Go to Metashare.com slash Michael.
There's no way around it.
When it comes to healthcare, people are frustrated with how much it costs and how to pay for it.
The usual ways we've been doing this have only gotten more expensive, more complicated, and aggravating.
That is why MediShare is such a welcome relief.
It's called healthcare sharing.
It's different and it works.
More than a million Americans are now doing this, and MediShare has been a great option for more than 30 years.
So really, you could save thousands of dollars a year on your healthcare and be happy.
Imagine that.
If you've heard about it and you want to know more, there are two easy options.
One, you go to MediShare.com slash Michael, M-I-C-H-A-E-L, or you just grab your phone and you send a text.
You will get the info that can really help you and your family out.
You text the word Michael.
Once again, I will spell it for you.
That is M-I-C-H-A-E-L to 70246 to get the facts.
Text Michael, M-I-C-H-A-E-L, to 70246, and you will get the link.
That is Michael to 70246.
Or just pull up your browser and go to Medishare.com slash Michael.
I want your voicemailbags.
Okay.
It's coming up.
I'm glad to be back here.
Though I guess I will be in DC today, and I'll be back here on Friday.
I want to hear your voicemailbag questions.
I have to beg you, though.
to plead with you.
You have to keep them short.
People send in their life story and it's all very interesting, but you got to keep it 30 seconds at the very most a minute, but 30 seconds is better.
You go to dailywire.com, you click on the show page, watch, then you click on the Michael Knowles show, then you click submit a mailbag question.
You attach the audio file, whatever format, however you do it on your phone and your computer, you attach it to the email.
You can send the written mailbag questions too.
But I like hearing your mellifluous tones.
So anyway, send them in.
Keep them pithy and I will dispense to you what wisdom I can muster on Friday.
Okay.
Who are the Democrats going to run against, I guess, the presumptive ticket of J.D. Vance and Marco Rubio?
AOC is one of the handful of names in consideration.
Right now, I think the only serious names are Gavin Newsom.
I guess you'd have to say Kamala Harris.
I don't see it, though.
Mayor Pete, no.
Gretchen Whitmer?
I don't think so.
J.B. Pritzker, he's got money, but that's all he's got.
That's not going to happen, I don't think.
Who do you, at a certain point, I know it seems like a punchline, one of the top contenders right now is AOC.
And she has very strong political skills.
She might just go after Schumer, try to take his seat in the Senate from New York.
But I think she's got higher ambitions.
And given the absolute dearth of any serious candidates on the left, she could make a very serious presidential candidate.
However, there's a big butt here because AOC is campaigning for Momdani right now in New York.
Momdani, who's the Muslim communist, who's probably going to be the next mayor of New York.
She's obviously one of, if not the leading voice on the left flank of the Democrat Party.
Very strange showing in recent days at a rally from Momdani.
Jews escaping Holocaust.
Black Americans fleeing sales slavery and Jim Crow.
Latinos seeking a better life.
Native people standing for themselves.
Asian Americans coming together in Queens, in Brooklyn, in the Bronx, in Manhattan, and Staten Island in this country.
Bah!
Bah, Momdani!
So she's just verbally ejaculating all of these random ethnic groups and historical events.
But she's not controlled.
So she's calling attention to, first of all, the people behind her all look foreign.
And that's the strategy.
The strategy is to go back to what had been working in the Obama era of Democrat politics.
And even a little earlier, 2004, Democrats were talking about this kind of thing.
The ascendant, what was it, the Coalition of the Ascendant or something like that?
I mean, you had very serious liberal political scientists saying the way the Democrats are going to get a permanent electoral majority is they're just going to assemble all of the supposedly oppressed minority groups, and they're going to rely heavily on foreign-born people.
And that's what's going to elevate them to a permanent electoral majority.
Basically saying they rigged the migration system to get rid of Republicans and Americans whose families have been here for a long time.
They're not going to have any say really in the politics anymore.
And in the case of Momdani, it is working.
Mom Dani will be the next mayor of New York only because of foreign-born New Yorkers.
If the election were held today and only New Yorkers who were born in America, not even just New York, born in America voted, Mom Dani would lose.
The reason Mom Dani is going to win is strictly because of foreign-born New Yorkers.
You might say that's not fair.
It's not to say that they're illegal aliens necessarily.
It's just that the Democrats foisted mass migration upon us.
It changed the character of the country.
And now you're going to get a Muslim communist in New York.
Okay, so maybe that works for New York.
Does that work for the whole country?
No, the whole country is not New York.
Zoron would not play in Peoria.
And there's been a big push against mass migration.
That was a big issue in the 2024 election.
But I just want to zoom in on AOC for a second because I've been very laudatory of AOC's political skills.
She's nuts, but I think she's generally a pretty talented politician.
That was a bad showing.
And now I was saying previously that AOC is the most likely Democrat nominee.
I would like to condition that.
I want to hedge my bet a little bit here, because if AOC keeps that up, if she can't control herself, she is going to be the Howard Dean 2004.
Was it 04 or 08?
No, it was 04 of the Democrats.
You remember for some of you, some of you were so young.
Some of you were but a glint in your father's eye in 2004.
In 2004, Howard Dean was leading the left-wing flank of the Democrat Party, and he lost one of the primaries, but he was still doing okay.
And he said, we're going to fight on in the campaign.
One speech completely ended his run.
Not only are we going to New Hampshire, Tom Harkin, we're going to South Carolina and Oklahoma and Arizona and North Dakota and New Mexico.
We're going to California and Texas and New York.
And we're going to South Dakota and Oregon and Washington and Michigan.
And then we're going to Washington, D.C. to take back the White House.
I'm seeing history repeat itself.
Deja vu all over again with AOC.
The problem there was not to say, oh, we lost this primary, but we're going to win the next ones, and then we're going to go to the White House.
It was to show the total lack of control, self-control.
That's what AOC is showing.
One of AOC's great strengths in politics is that she's been able to outmaneuver her enemies and she's been able to grow and control herself.
And that's what's made her a force.
If she doesn't have that, if she's just going to go out on the trail and say, bah, she started citing random historical events, random minority groups.
It's not going to work.
It's not going to work.
And then it's going to be newsome.
So it remains to be seen.
But right now, she's set up to be Howard Dean.
Now, back to Mom Dani.
I mentioned he is a Muslim communist.
And people have really focused on the Muslim part.
We talked about that a little bit yesterday on the show.
He's pallying around with unindicted co-conspirators of the World Trade Center bombing.
And he's talking about how Muslims just want to be New Yorkers like everybody else.
I mean, some of them want to blow up the World Trade Center, and some of them are actually Mom Dani's friends, and they smile together in photos recently.
But the rest of them, they just want to be New Yorkers.
And the real victims of 9-11, of course, were not the 3,000 people who were killed by a Muslim terrorist.
No, no, it was the Muslims.
It was those who faced Islamophobia.
Imagined Islamophobia.
Maybe we'll have time to get to that too.
Instead, though, I said, I think Mom Dani is really just rote leftism.
And all the Islam stuff is really just part of the anti-colonial attack on the West.
But you'd hear it from a white Presbyterian liberal just as much as you'd hear it from a Muslim like Mom Dani.
Well, I think I have been vindicated yet again in this clip going viral of Mom Dani out on the campaign trail going all in on transgenderism.
One of the things that we've said beyond saying that we're going to make this a sanctuary city for LGBTQIA plus New Yorkers, beyond saying that they have established an office of LGBTQIA plus affairs, is also that we're going to provide $65 million in funding for gender-intermediate care, the same amount of funding the federal government is going to pull out mobile providers for that kind of work.
And in this moment, especially, if we want to fight the Trump administration, we have to do so by fully funding our own services, taxing the wealthiest New Yorkers and corporations here.
65 million bucks to trans the kids and the adults, I guess, too, but also the kids.
Mom Dani is all in on that.
I pointed this out when people said, oh, you know, he's basically a Wahhabiist.
What are you talking about?
He tweets about queer liberation.
It's where they said, oh, you don't know how dangerous he is.
He's a Muslim.
I said, in some ways, it'd be better if he were a serious Muslim.
At least those guys, at least they're grounded.
They believe in God.
They have some sense of theology and metaphysics.
But, you know, the libs, they're chopping up little kids.
Again, I'm not advocating for an Islamist to take over New York, surely.
But this is, frankly, even, I think, less politically salient.
Americans rejected wokeness broadly through the emblem of wokeness, which is the transgender issue.
They rejected that resoundingly in November.
That was the issue.
That was the cultural issue that Republicans pounded them on because it was indefensible.
And Zoron's doubling down on it.
They're all in on trans.
This will help him in New York, probably.
This might help him with the base.
This is very bad for Democrats in general.
Very bad.
And as we're looking around the field, and all you got are AOC, who's all in on Mom Dani and screeching and wow, all in on the woke ID politics.
Mom Dani all in on queer liberation and transing the kids.
You got Gavin Newsom, who doesn't know what he is.
He wants to be a Clinton Democrat one day.
You know, he wants to be kind of moderate and friends with Charlie Kirk and Steve Bannon.
Then the next day, he's threatening people and all the way on the left.
Then one day he's black.
Remember that?
He said, I was grew up a born black child.
And so he doesn't know what he is.
The Dems are doubling down on this.
They learn nothing from November.
If Trump were to run for another term, he might get it.
He probably would get it.
Right now, though, I don't care what the poll numbers say.
You look at Rubio at the VP level and Vance as the presidential candidate versus these people.
Would not work.
Would not work.
The Republicans could run on the exact same issues.
They'd win again.
Now, speaking of mayors, the mayor of Chicago has made an audacious and strange claim.
He says there are no illegal aliens in Chicago.
Is this because ICE has just done too good a job?
No, no, it's a little weirder than that.
We'll get to that one second.
First, though, I want to clear the air.
When you want to clear the air in your home, you got to check out Rabbit Air.
Go to rabbitair.com.
Okay, I got two things to set you up for here.
All right.
First of all, if you are a cigar enthusiast, as I am, obviously I have my Mayflower cigars right here on the set.
You need this yesterday.
You need the Rabbit Air A3 air purifier, the award-winning A3 air purifier yesterday.
But even if you've never had a cigar in your life and never intend to, even if you just want your home to have nice, clean, beautiful air in it, the Rabbit Air A3 purifier has a six-stage filtration and advanced deodorization to tackle everything, air pollutants, odors, the aforementioned cigar smoke.
It's got dual hive-activated carbon filter, boosts efficiency by 26%.
It upgrades the single-layer design with two offset layers, more carbon surface area, better air contact, stronger odor removal.
This is next level air purification for everyone.
Get it in your home.
Your wife will thank you, especially though, if you're a cigar smoker, it is next level.
Because obviously, with cigars, you need the absolute best.
Rabbit is the absolute best, okay?
Premium craftsmanship, comprehensive five-year warranty, upgrade your space today.
I have two of these things in my house.
All right.
One of them is a special Mayflower one.
They're really, they're just phenomenal.
And if you know, you know.
When you go to the cigar lounge, you got the nice units and it's a Rabbit Air A3.
Go to rabbitair.com.
We'll call them 24-7 to speak to a Rabbit Air consultant, Brandon Johnson, mayor of Chicago.
He says that they do not have illegal aliens in Chicago.
So it's coming to our attention through our cultural sources, Mr. Leonard, that you're supposed to have filed a report on spending on illegal aliens in Chicago at the White House by now.
What's happening with that?
What has happened with that?
We don't have illegal aliens.
I don't know if that's from some sort of sci-fi message that you wish to have had.
Well, listen, the legal term for my people were slaves.
You want me to use that term too?
So look, let's just get the language right.
We're talking about undocumented individuals that are human beings.
The last thing that I'm going to do is accept the type of racist, nasty language to describe human beings.
And so as far as our spending on Chicagoans, I've put forth a $16.7 billion balanced budget that ensures that we're investing in education, transportation, housing, youth employment, environmental justice, as well as ensuring that we have safe communities.
And we are going to challenge the ultra-wealthy to pay their fair share.
He's more than happy to look at that budget.
Let me just, excuse me, excuse me, let me just say something here.
It is very important that people in Illinois and across the country understand the immigration system is a civil system.
Undocumented presence in the United States is not a criminal offense.
Yes, it is sometimes.
Okay, anyway, good clarification on language.
Let's get to the point that the mayor makes.
He says, there are no illegal aliens here.
What is that?
Something from a sci-fi movie from outer space?
No, it's just a legal term that is clear and precise since time immemorial.
Not a pejorative necessarily.
It's just a legal term.
Well, we're not going to use that kind of term.
My people were called slaves.
You want to call us slaves?
Well, yeah, I guess when we had slaves, you probably should call them slaves, right?
When we had slavery in America, we probably should call the slaves slaves.
Because if you call them free, you would be lying and confusing people.
But then the slaves were freed in the 13th Amendment, and then you wouldn't call them slaves anymore because slavery was abolished.
So when there was slavery, you should call people slaves.
Then they were free.
You should call them free.
You shouldn't call free people slaves or enslaved people free.
What about illegal alien?
You want to call them, what, undocumented people?
That's not clear language.
When I was working as a kid, if I didn't have working papers under the age of 18, I would be an undocumented person, or I wouldn't have the documents for my job.
Plenty of people work that way.
I actually did get working papers when I started working at 14, 13, 14.
So it was no problem.
That would be an undocumented.
If I lose my passport, if I'm traveling, I lose my passport.
I would be an undocumented person.
I wouldn't be an illegal alien.
There was ice would not come after me.
Sometimes they use this term undocumented American.
Not only is that imprecise language, it's a lie.
Because the one thing these people are not is Americans.
So the term illegal alien, if you think it's a pejorative, you only think that because it describes a bad thing.
It's bad to break into it.
Illegal means not legal, right?
Not here illegally, not lawful.
And alien means foreigner.
That's all it means.
So when we talk about extraterrestrial aliens, we're talking about foreigners from outside of the earth.
That's ET.
And an alien, a resident alien, that's another legal term.
It's all in legal court documents, legal documents, since time immemorial.
Nothing, both parties agreed on it.
There's nothing necessarily offensive about it.
The reason you think it's offensive is because it describes a bad thing.
And the reason the left has to change the language is because they want to hide the bad thing.
Same reason, as I talk about in my book, Speechless Controlling Words, Controlling Minds, it's the same, thank you.
It's the same reason that the libs try to change words like criminal to say justice-involved person.
Because they say, well, criminal is a, it's got a negative connotation.
Yeah, because it describes a negative thing.
It describes a bad thing.
So then you use this new term, justice-involved person.
I promise you that's actually used in left-wing circles.
But guess what?
If that ever caught on, that would take on a bad connotation.
They have to change it again.
It's called the euphemism treadmill.
Steven Pinker has written about this at length at Harvard.
This is what they do with the trans thing.
They have to change all the terms.
So it's not a man dressing up as a lady or whatever.
It's a trans man.
It's initially transvestite, and you say transsexual, transgender, trans this, trans woman, this, that, and the other thing.
But it describes a disordered thing.
So they have to keep changing the language to hide the reality.
There are no illegal aliens in Chicago.
Yeah, okay, I guess there are two ways to get rid of the illegal aliens in Chicago.
You can either enforce the law, but you don't want that.
You're willing to stage an insurrection against the federal government to stop that.
Or you can just define them out of existence, but they'll still be there.
And they're still going to be using American resources.
And actual Americans are going to be resentful of that fact.
And they're still going to be committing crimes and they're still going to be bringing fentanyl.
It's not supposed to be here.
This is why it's very important.
You know, sometimes there are squishes on the right who are going to say, well, let's not fight him on the language.
This is just semantics.
We should fight on the real points.
You don't get it.
You just don't get it.
If the language didn't matter, why would Brandon Johnson focus on it so much?
Why would the libs spend so much time and energy, so many resources, to get you to use imprecise and confusing and usually dishonest language?
Because the language obviously does matter.
So you have to insist upon it, especially on something that's obvious as illegal alien.
It's a perfectly neutral term to describe a bad thing that the libs want to hide.
Speaking of Democrats of color, racial ID politics, Corine Jampier, do you remember her?
The spokeslady for President Biden.
Corrine Jampier making the rounds.
She goes on a very liberal news network, MSNBC.
And Corine Jean-Pierre was asked actually a slightly tough question by the liberal host.
It says, hey, look, this is pretty bad, right?
Because you got up to the podium and you would say that Biden's fine and he doesn't have any dementia and his health is great, even though he's apparently got advanced cancer the second he leaves the White House.
And come on, like we know, we saw the debate.
That's why we had to kick him out as the nominee and then we had to replace him with Kamala.
And so you, you know, come on.
Do you have, here's the question.
Do you have any regrets about the things you might have said?
This is the friendly news network.
Do you have any regrets about what you did as press secretary?
Here's what she says.
Corrine, do you have any regrets at all for anything that you said while you were speaking on behalf of this administration?
I'm look.
It's a simple yes or no.
No, no, no, no, no, because you're asking for a yes or no question.
I want to put some context to it too.
I woke up every day.
I woke up every day very proud to be the White House press secretary.
I woke up every day as a black woman who is queer, who had never, no one had ever seen someone like me at that podium standing behind that lectern.
It was an honor and a privilege to have that job.
And I did it to the best of my abilities.
This is as much a softball as the host could possibly throw to this woman while still maintaining any credibility, any integrity.
Hey, you know, you did, you were exposed as pretty brazenly lying for years.
Do you have any regrets?
She could have just said no.
That's what he was trying to get.
No, I don't.
Okay, moving on.
But she can't do that.
You know what she says?
I am a black lesbian.
Ma'am, I hope you've had a chance to look over the menu.
Could I get us started with some appetizers tonight?
Maybe a drink?
What would you like to have?
I am a black lesbian.
Okay, never mind.
Yeah, okay, all right.
Here we go.
S-A-T.
Is the answer A, B, C, or D?
Actually, the answer is E. I am a black lesbian.
Okay, all right.
Never mind then.
That did work.
There was a period of time in which that worked.
I think that period of time was roughly 2006 to 2022, 2023.
I think that answer actually would have worked.
And I think now people are really sick of it.
They're sick of that excuse.
I think that's done.
I think that's why when Trump made wokeness, which was just another iteration of politically correct identity politics, when he made that a major issue, he put that on the ballot in 2024.
When black voters moved in his direction on it, when women moved in his direction on it, when Hispanics really moved in his direction on it, that was the end of it.
And so please, you know, nominate AOC, run Mamdani as the face of the Democrat Party, answer, I'm a black lesbian to every question you're ever asked.
Please do it.
Please do it.
I think you will find the results will be different than they have been for the past 15 or so years.
Today, I'm heading to the United States Senate to testify on what Democrats refuse to acknowledge their complicity in, that is the rise of left-wing political violence.
You've seen the headlines, you've watched the chaos.
Now, Washington has to hear the truth.
Watch today live on Daily Wire Plus at 2.30 p.m. Eastern as I bring the story the media would rather you never hear.
Because when lies are the weapon, truth is an act of courage.
The Daily Wire is here to lead the fight, but we cannot do it without your support.

My favorite comment yesterday is from DS-NW4EQ.
This is referring to Gavin Newsom, his interview in which he essentially described himself as a young black child.
He said, dude would cripwalk on national TV to become president.
Sup homies, white people.
Am I right?
Yes, that's true.
That's what we learned.
Hey, hey, you dig Slim.
Don't worry.
I talk jive.
Hey, hanging, turkey.
Is that going to work from the whitest man ever to run for president, including the guys in powdered wigs?
Has a whiter man ever run for president than Gavin Newsom, scion of the financial advisor to the Getty Fortune?
Good luck.
I was hooping, you know, banging that basketball up against the wall, waiting for my pops to come home, picking up that milk.
That's what he said.
Not verbatim, but basically what he said.
Oh, look, my dad was out there, finally showed up.
See my basketball game.
I was eating all that wonder bread, mac and cheese.
You dig slim.
Okay, great.
We got you.
We got AOC.
Ah, we got who else is running?
Mayor Pete?
I don't know.
Mayor Pete might be the most normal one wants to run.
Speaking of pooky ladies.
Ah, I was kind of hoping that we talk about other stuff long enough.
I wouldn't have to get to this story, but I have to.
It's here.
It's listed in my rundown from my Courtney Kardashian.
Let me read the New York Post.
Courtney Kardashian is launching lollipops for your ladies' parts.
This is a family show, so I don't want to get graphic.
You know, with like the post headline or the product.
Courtney Kardashian, she's one of the Kardashians, I take it.
She has a Lem or Lemmy line of products.
They all have a lot of products.
And the Lemmy Pur supplement is they have probiotic gummies.
They have pills designed to support women's, shall we say, reproductive health.
It's available at Target.
Now they have it in lollipop form.
Courtney Kardashian is selling a lollipop and instructing, like normal stores at Target, instructing women to stick it in places you usually wouldn't put a lollipop.
Let's just leave it at that.
Let's just leave the description at that because this is a family show and I would like to keep my breakfast down.
Why mention this at all?
Because the Kardashians as one of the emblems of American liberalism remind us that these are the people who for decades have said they are the party of science.
The party of science is instructing you to take a lollipop.
I said we were done with the descriptions and we're done with it, but that's what they're instructing you to do, the party of science.
The party of science, which said the world was going to end a few years ago, remember, because they've been predicting this for many years.
We've been doing the show long enough now that the time is up.
Some of these predictions, the world was supposed to end like eight years ago in some cases, has not ended.
AOC, what was it?
In 2018, she predicted the world had nine or 12 years left.
So we're getting pretty close on that one.
World still seems to be spinning around.
Don't let them, don't let them mock you for RFK Jr. citing Harvard and Columbia and Johns Hopkins studies on the effects of Tylenol and utero.
They mock you for that.
They mock you for saying that the world will probably not end five years ago.
They mock you for suggesting that the Fauci Auchi wouldn't prevent you from contracting the virus, the Wu flu, or from spreading it or for whatever.
And then you were right all along.
It's not to say that experts have nothing to say about science.
I'm not a populist on scientific discoveries, though I'm skeptical of what many of the supposed experts would say.
But it's fine.
Now we have our experts.
And one of our experts steps in there, the Secretary of Health and Human Services, citing lots of other scientists and major institutions and says, hey, you know, and actually the pharmaceutical manufacturer themselves in the case of Tylenol.
They say, hey, but because we say it, that has to be dismissed.
These, the people who want you to put vitamin lollipops in your nether regions, you don't have to take that.
The party that upholds is the great oracle of science, a Swedish child on a sailboat.
You don't have to put up with that.
And you don't have to put their products up inside you.
You don't have to do that.
Okay.
One more bit on kooky ladies.
I've mentioned AOC could run for president, Kevin Newsom, all these.
We should deal with the Kamala in the room.
Because Kamala sort of has left the door open that maybe she wants to run.
She was the nominee last time.
Probably she's not going to get it again.
But because that was an unprecedented kind of election and because Kamala, you know, she feels she didn't really get a full showing.
She wants to be president, obviously.
People keep asking the major Democrats if she could be the nominee.
Here is Arizona Senator Mark Kelly asked this question by NBC News.
Could Kamala be the nominee in 2028?
Mark Kelly, as establishment a figure in the Democrat Party, as there is U.S. Senator, here's his response.
Do you think that Kamala Harris would be a strong candidate in 2028?
Candidate, yeah, absolutely.
Yeah, I mean, she was she was the nominee last time.
I think you would encourage her to run.
I think she would be incredibly strong.
Okay, okay.
Now, so you see, this is where I got to tell you, just like I told you to listen carefully to what Steve Bannon was saying, you have to listen carefully what Mark Kelly is saying here.
Because the headline from this is, Mark Kelly says Kamala would be great in 2028.
That's not what he said.
That's not what he said.
He was, let's go to the clip again.
He was asked, do you think she would be good in 2028?
And he clarifies.
Here's what he says.
Do you think that Kamala Harris would be a strong candidate in 2028?
Candidate?
Yeah.
Absolutely.
Okay.
That's all you need to hear.
She was it.
That's it.
Strong.
Candidate?
Oh, yeah, yeah, candidate for sure.
And people heard nominee.
He didn't say nominee.
Candidate in a primary so that she could lose before anyone else, just like she did in 2016, the only other time she had to run in a primary.
The not so subtle esoteric statement that he's making there is she would be a horrible nominee.
But sure, she can run.
She has name recognition.
She could raise some money.
Sure, she could be a candidate.
Mark Kelly manifestly does not believe that she would be a good nominee in 2028.
No Democrat, I think including Kamala Harris, thinks that she would be a good nominee in 2028.
She got clobbered by Trump and she let Trump win the popular vote for the first time as a Republican in 20 years.
No one thinks she would be.
So if we're being really brutally honest, Mark Kelly should have said no.
If she's not going to be the nominee, that by definition means she wouldn't be a good candidate.
I guess she could go on TV and raise her book prices or something, but she wouldn't be.
Nobody believes she would be a good, a good nominee in 2028.
But none of them can admit it because she's not a black lesbian like Karen Shamp here, but she's a black lady and you're not allowed to say that.
She was picked to be VP because she was a black lady.
Joe Biden said that himself.
Those are his words, not mine.
No one can say it.
The Democrats are in this brutal spot right now where they can't quite say what they mean.
They can't quite pick a position on any issue.
They can't quite run.
They're really backed into a corner.
Gavin Newsom, who's doing a pretty good job running, he can't quite, he wants to be friends with Charlie Kirk and Steve Bannon.
He can't befriend Republicans.
So then he's got to swing back the other way and he's got to call Stephen Miller a fascist right after the fascist war cry was what preceded Charlie Kirk's assassination.
He's got to go in this really violent, not so subtly violent direct.
They can't figure it out.
They want to ditch woke, but then Mom Dani is going to double down on transing the kids and they're all going to endorse Mom Daniel and they can't, and they got to pretend that Kamala's a good candidate and they can't, they're just totally stuck.
It's why they've shut down the government and it's why they can't reopen it.
They're just totally stuck.
The one issue they thought that they could maybe turn their fortunes around on was health care.
So they tried to make the government shut down about health care, but then Republicans come in and say, you're shutting the government down because your stupid healthcare law didn't work, Obamacare, and because you want to give health care to illegal aliens.
And they grudgingly have to admit, yeah, I guess that's probably, shoot.
So they got nothing.
Maybe they can try, I'm a black woman.
Maybe they can draw, I'm a black lesbian.
I don't think, other than that, I don't think they have anything.
Okay, no member black today.
I have to, speaking of the Senate, I have to go testify before the Senate.
