The Michael Knowles Show

Happy National Women for Trump Day! We’re going to be joined by a wonderful national woman for Trump, Tana Goertz. Tana is a business woman, television star on The Apprentice, and Senior Advisor and Spokesman for the Trump 2016 and 2020 campaigns. Tana led President Trump’s campaign efforts in Iowa, which he won despite the state going twice in a row for Barack Obama. We’ll discuss the campaign, staff shakeups, and Republican chances in the next election. Then, my favorite international women, and finally the Mailbag! Date: 03-08-18

How did the Parkland shooter slip through the cracks of the Broward County school district? We’ll discuss with Manhattan Institute senior fellow Max Eden and then take on education policy more broadly. Finally, the news! Date:03-07-18

Juanita Broaddrick joins the show to discuss her firsthand experiences, outlined in her new book, “You’d Better Put Some Ice On That: How I Survived Being Raped By Bill Clinton.” The Clintons, the #MeToo movement, feminist hypocrisy, and more. Then, the news! Date: 03-06-2018

The South African parliament voted last week to steal white farmers’ land and redistribute it to black South Africans. The motion was brought by the radical leftist EFF party, whose leader promises to “cut the throat of whiteness.” The land theft was supported by Nelson Mandela’s African National Congress party, leaving just one question: has South Africa just destroyed itself? We will discuss with Lauren Southern, the filmmaker behind a new documentary "Farmlands." Then the Boston Massacre on This Day In History! Date:03-05-18

We’re joined today for the full half hour by Professor Alvin Felzenberg. Professor Felzenberg is the author of “A Man And His Presidents: The Political Odyssey of William F. Buckley Jr. We will discuss the founder of the modern conservative movement 10 years after his death, what WFB might have thought of President Covfefe one year in, and what the conservatives of today can learn from our forebears. And if he won’t talk about all that, I’ll smash him in his damn face, and he’ll stay plastered…then, the Mailbag! Date: 03-01-2018

Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School students return to school today, two weeks after the horrific shooting. We will talk with one of them, Kyle Kashuv, not about guns, not about his thoughts on public policy, but rather about his experience of media outlets like CNN and Hollywood celebrities preying on his community. Then, we expose the real forces behind gun control efforts in Parkland and why they’re doing it. Finally, CNN analyst Lt. Gen. Mark Hertling clarifies his comments on full semi-auto weapons. We will clarify his clarification, which is really an obfuscation, because CNN belongs to its father and when it lies it speaks its native language.

"Shall not be infringed." Seems simple enough, but nevertheless Democrats persisted in trying to rob words on their meaning. Fortunately we’re joined today by Eugene Volokh, Gary T. Schwartz Distinguished Professor of Law at UCLA to discuss what the Second Amendment means. Then, CNN invents a new class of firearms, Sheriff Scott Israel vindicates Jeff Sessions, and the Heritage Foundation says Trump is outpacing Reagan.

Cynical Democrat politicians who failed at every level to prevent the high school shooting in Parkland, Florida, are now excusing everybody who had anything to do with preventing the shooting and placing all of the blame on the NRA, a civil rights organization that had absolutely nothing to do with the shooting. This is par for the course for Democrats, who have long pushed gun control to oppress blacks and other minorities. We will analyze the racist history of gun control and the purpose of the Second Amendment. Date:02-26-18

CNN and mean girl Jake Tapper last night pimped out traumatized kids to hurl vile and dishonest insults at Republicans and supporters of the U.S. Constitution for a fact-free hour on national television. Meanwhile, Republicans and conservatives resort to their evil facts and data and logic to point out that there is no gun homicide crisis in America. Those monsters. We will discuss the current state of gun demagoguery with senior editor of National Review Ramesh Ponnuru. Then, the Mailbag! Date:02-22-18

What should conservatives want in the age of Trump? We will discuss with the great Mike Franc, research fellow and Director of D.C. programs at the Hoover Institution, former policy director and counsel for House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy, and from 1997 to 2013 VP of government relations for the Heritage Foundation, where he managed all of the think-tank’s outreach with Capitol Hill and the White House. Then, Democrats use traumatized kids as human shields to infringe upon our civil rights, a Catholic’s take on Billy Graham, and the greatest Olympian since Orsippus. Date: 02-21-2018

Michael Moore colluded with the Russians! Or at least he was a useful idiot exploited by them. And we have photographic evidence. None of this should surprise us, however, as the American Left has been working with Moscow for over a century to undermine American institutions and culture. We will analyze this latest episode and the long history of Democrats’ colluding with Russia. Then, on This Day In History, what we conservatives can learn from American colonists’ adopting the Indians’ practice of scalping to fight against them! Date: 02-20-2018

Statue-toppling, shrieking girls, white supremacists, safe spaces, trigger warning, and English degrees without Shakespeare. Somehow one institution has become a focus point for all of these atrocities. We ask: is the Ivy League destroying America? Then, Washington's Birthday on This Day In History! Date: 02-19-2018

Mitt Romney is running for office again in some other state he moved to five minutes ago. In other news, the sky will appear blue today, and water will remain wet. We will analyze the many, many faces of Mitt Romney, what the inevitable Senator Romney means for the Trump administration, and why Republicans need more conviction politicians and fewer squishes dynastic liberals. Date: 02-16-2018

Demagogic leftists have wasted no time in pouncing on the horrific massacre in Florida to demonize conservatives while offering not one single solution that would have prevented the violence. Lefties insist we need to ban gun; conservatives say we need to lock up lunatics. We will analyze the nuts and bolts of the gun control debate point by hollow point. Then, our youth culture correspondent Andy Millennial joins the show to give a young person’s perspective on the violence, policy proposals, and the future of conservatism broadly. Finally, the Mailbag! Date: 02-15-2018

It’s Valentine’s Day, and we’re celebrating the most romantic way possible: with a special episode of The Conversation featuring Michael Knowles! Michael will answer live questions in the order they are asked for an entire hour. Best date ever? We think so!
