Chapter 1: What claim does the Democrat Rep make about Charlie Kirk's assassination?
Fresh on the heels of congressional Democrats refusing to stand up to oppose political violence at the State of the Union, a Democrat representative is now arguing that Charlie Kirk was not even assassinated. Then AOC and Zohran Mamdani encourage illegal aliens to sign up for the taxpayer funded childcare that they supposedly are ineligible for. Remember that?
Remember when the Democrats told us they don't get a penny of it? Anyway, free child care must be nice. And finally, an elite Air Force pilot allegedly committed treason with the Chinese. But is America still patriotic enough to execute traitors? I'm not sure that we are. I'm Michael Knowles. This is The Michael Knowles Show.
The absolute best reaction to the State of the Union has finally come in, thanks to the ladies at The View, Whoopi in particular, who says that it was insanely rude of President Trump to honor the gold medal winning US hockey team. Love it. And then they quickly cut to commercial because the Democrats realize this is a bad look.
Chapter 2: How are AOC and Mamdani involved in taxpayer-funded childcare for illegals?
But they're going all the way, baby. The Dems are now opposed to the U.S. Olympic hockey team. You know, I thought we were going to get demolished in the midterms. Who knows? At this rate, with the way Democrats are going, maybe we'll actually hold the House. Before we get to anything, I want to tell you about Preborn. Go to preborn.com slash Knowles. 80,000 babies.
That's how many lives were saved last year through our sponsor Preborn and their supporters like you. Right now, thousands of women are being told the same heartbreaking lie that abortion is their only choice, that they're on their own, that there's no way forward.
But everything shifts the moment an expectant mother walks into a pre-born network clinic and sees her baby on that ultrasound screen. In that instant, her chance of choosing life doubles. Suddenly, it's not abstract anymore.
Chapter 3: What allegations are made against an elite Air Force pilot?
It is her baby created in God's image, a sacred life meant to be cherished and protected. When she hears that heartbeat for the very first time... a beautiful bond is formed. Today, we can all support a mother in need. One pre-born donor put it beautifully, my mother chose life. That is the only reason I'm here today.
Chapter 4: Is America still willing to execute traitors?
And that's exactly why I give to pre-born so other mothers can make the same choice. A donation of 28 bucks provides one ultrasound that could double a baby's chance at life. I love this organization. I personally support it. I encourage you to give what you can. 100% of your money will go towards saving babies. They fundraise for the administrative overhead separately.
Call pound 250, say keyword baby. That is pound. Or for you kids out there, that's hashtag 250 keyword baby. Or just go to preborn.com slash Knowles, Canada WLAS. Donate securely today. That is preborn.com slash Knowles. Ashley Viola Gant, this is a Democrat state representative coming out.
This clip is going viral in the wake of President Trump's State of the Union, in which he really exposed the Democrats. He pointed to Erica Kirk, who was in the gallery. And he said, Erica, my great friend Charlie, his beautiful widow Erica, is here. And this is a reminder that we are one nation under God, and we must- oppose political violence of all kinds.
Chapter 5: What reactions did Trump's State of the Union receive?
And the Republicans stood up. Some Democrats stood up. A lot of Democrats wouldn't even stand up for that. Wouldn't even stand up to oppose political violence of all kinds with Charlie's widow sitting there in the gallery. In the wake of that, this clip is going viral of a Democrat state representative, not only mocking Charlie Kirk, but denying that he was assassinated at all.
We want to talk about exercise and free speech. Let's ball. So the First Amendment protects free speech. We don't need this day of remembrance for a man that was mediocre and racist. And I say mediocre at best. He was not a Floridian. He had no ties to Florida other than owning property.
We have a number of Floridians, both individuals and organizations, that promote free speech that is not divisive like this individual was. If we want to talk about free speech, let's talk about being precise with our words. When we hear assassination, that's typically related to a person and a political position. Charlie Kirk died from gun violence, okay?
We continuously advocate for gun policy legislation that would ensure that people that probably shouldn't have a gun don't have a gun. Was his passing tragic for those who love him? Absolutely. There is no denying that. But he was not assassinated. And words being accurate matters. It was a death by gun violence.
They want to kill you. In case you haven't gotten the message, in case you didn't get the message at the State of the Union when the Democrats wouldn't even stand up for the mother of Irina Zarutska to oppose even that kind of street-level violence, they want to kill you. Listen to this language this woman uses. It's not just...
That she is denying that the most prominent political assassination of the last quarter century, for many of us, of our lifetimes, occurred. She's also mocking the guy who was assassinated. She comes out from the top. She says, this guy was mediocre at best, at best. Charlie Kirk, one of the most impressive people of his generation and in the country.
Charlie Kirk, master political organizer, a guy who the White House chief of staff said made the winning difference in 2024. Guy who won a presidential election, built the biggest youth activist organization in the country, master fundraiser, incredible debater. The list goes on and on and on. moved the youth vote probably 10 points in the presidential election.
She says he's mediocre at best, but his death was tragic for those who loved him. She's making clear she did not love him. Many Democrats have made clear they did not love him. The conclusion being is death wasn't even really tragic, at least for most of us. But then they go even further. Not only was his assassination not tragic, she says it wasn't even an assassination.
And here, I don't think this woman is lying exactly because I'm not convinced that this woman has a firm grasp on the English language. She might just not know what the word assassination means. But assassination is a targeted killing of a prominent person for political or religious reasons. That's what an assassination is.

According to reports, the FBI has just raided the home. of the superintendent of LAUSD. This guy's name is Alberto Carvalho. the reporting says that this is tied to an investigation involving the failed AI company All Here.
The founder of that company was charged with fraud and the company had a contract with LAUSD. So according to the reporting, allegedly, allegedly, reportedly, reportedly, this guy was involved in some fraudulent AI scheme. Okay.
Gotta give a hat tip to my buddy Dave Rubin here who pointed out, I think it was Dave who pointed out on Twitter that Alberto Carvalho, who has this very prominent position in public life, this is a public office, superintendent of schools is elected in many places, or is at the very least appointed by other elected and appointed officials. This guy is himself an illegal alien.
I want to confess to you, for those of you who may not know, I would be a hypocrite if I did not fight for those who today are facing conditions that over 40 years I faced as an undocumented migrant to this country. I want to repeat that. I would be the biggest hypocrite in the world, regardless of my position today,
if today I did not fight for those who find themselves in the same predicament I faced over 40 years ago when I arrived in this country at the age of 17 as an undocumented immigrant. Education made me and saved me. I became a teacher, a principal, a superintendent leading the nation's largest districts, four times selected as national superintendent of the year.
Do not underestimate the power of the immigrant child who may very well become an adult who does well and good by America. If I come across with a certain degree of contempt and anger, I am. I am.
I'm going to cut it off right there because I love that as he's extolling his great education, how he's excelled in education, so much so that he's one of the leaders of education in America. He demonstrates that he still, 40 years later, can't properly speak the English language. If I come across with contempt, I am. Is this a Dr. Seuss story? If I come across with contempt, I am. What it...
