Speechless
Controlling Words, Controlling Minds
by Michael Knowles

“Every single American needs to read Michael Knowles’s Speechless. I don’t mean ‘read it eventually.’ I mean: stop what you’re doing and pick up this book.” —CANDACE OWENS

"The most important book on free speech in decades—read it!” —SENATOR TED CRUZ

A New Strategy: We Win, They Lose

The Culture War is over, and the culture lost.

The Left’s assault on liberty, virtue, decency, the Republic of the Founders, and Western civilization has succeeded.

You can no longer keep your social media account—or your job—and acknowledge truths such as:
Washington, Jefferson, and Columbus were great men. Schools and libraries should not coach children in sexual deviance. Men don’t have uteruses.

How did we get to this point?

Michael Knowles of The Daily Wire exposes and diagnosis the losing strategy we have fallen for and shows how we can change course—and start winning.

In the groundbreaking Speechless: Controlling Words, Controlling Minds Knowles reveals:

How the “free speech absolutists” gave away the store

The First Amendment does not require a value-neutral public square

How the Communists figured out that their revolution could never succeed as long as the common man was attached to his own culture

Where political correctness came from

How, comply or resist, political correctness is a win-win game for the bad guys

Why taking our stand on “freedom of speech” helps put atheism, decadence, and nonsense on the same plane with faith, virtue, and reality

The real question: Will we shut down drag queen story hour, or cancel Abraham Lincoln?

For 170 years the First Amendment was compatible with prayer in public school

How the atheists got the Warren Court to rule their way

To this day, there’s a First Amendment exception for obscenity. What exactly is the argument that perverts’ teaching toddlers to twerk is not obscene?

Read Speechless: Controlling Words, Controlling Minds if you want to learn how to take the fight to the enemy.

What Your Farts Are Trying To Tell You

What are farts, anyway?
The average person farts nearly every day, so what is it that we’re passing? Also known as “flatulence,” a fart is simply an internal build-up of gas. More specifically, farts are made up of nitrogen, carbon dioxide, oxygen, methane and hydrogen. What a lovely little gaseous cocktail, eh?

Very little is needed to make a happy life.

Marcus Aurelius   

Marcus Aurelius (121-180 CE) was not only a wise ruler of the Roman Empire — the last of the “Five Good Emperors” of the Pax Romana. He was also a Stoic philosopher who espoused the enduring value of virtue, logic, and will. He believed that strong-willed people who cultivated inner peace and positive emotions could find happiness regardless of circumstance, and did not need fortune, fame, or material goods to achieve satisfaction in life. If we can seek out joy in the small things and feel gratitude for what we have, happiness is always within reach.

Archaeologists Uncover
Cool Whip Containers
Pilgrims Used To Hold Leftovers

PLYMOUTH, MA—Archaeologists have uncovered a "cool" new discovery: the Cool Whip containers used by the Pilgrims to keep their leftovers after the first Thanksgiving. The 400-year-old Cool Whip containers are reportedly "remarkably well-preserved" and still contain leftovers of mashed potatoes, turkey, ham, and cranberry sauce that are "as fresh as they were back in 1621."

"It seems after they were absolutely stuffed and couldn't possibly take another bite, the Pilgrim grandmas—who were the ripe old age of 37—started gathering the leftovers in these plastic tubs," said Dr. Hank Medverd, head of the dig. "While everyone was outside playing a pickup football game, the grannies gathered all the leftovers, making sure there was nothing wasted. Yes, even the yams."

"The Pilgrims had turkey sandwiches for lunch for weeks and weeks after the first Thanksgiving," he added, pointing to the remains of a delicious turkey and gravy sandwich one Pilgrim had eaten during his lunch break at the Pilgrim Store."

Experts believe that without the invention of the Cool Whip container, created by Bob Cool Whip in the 15th century, no one would ever be able to save anything from Thanksgiving dinner, causing trillions in food loss each year.

At publishing time, the archaeologists had also unearthed the smallpox rapid test kits the Pilgrims had made the Indians take before admitting them into the house.

Here's another reason to storm the Castle Gates!

                                                     

As Americans Pay for Ultra-Expensive Thanksgiving,
Bidens Party at Wall Street Billionaire's Huge Mansion

As Americans gather with family and friends to enjoy a significantly more expensive Thanksgiving, President Joe Biden and his family are headed off to the exclusive estate of a billionaire friend.

The Farm Bureau reported that the typical Thanksgiving meal is up 14 percent from last year, while turkeys are now roughly $1.50 per pound or a 24 percent increase.

Other items that have seen a noticeable rise in price include dinner rolls, up 15 percent, and frozen pie crusts, 20 percent more.

“[It’s] important to maintain perspective about where our economy stands today. The fact is, America has a lot to be proud of. We’re experiencing the strongest economic recovery in the world,” the president said in a speech on Tuesday.

Not to sound ungrateful for the progress the country has made since the COVID shutdowns of the spring of 2020, but Biden’s statement is actually false.

China has experienced stronger economic growth this year.

"Biden is partying in a sprawling $30 million Nantucket estate this weekend, but he thinks Americans struggling to afford food need “perspective.” "

Retailers are EATING IT this year! What did they expect in a miserable Democrat economy?

Small crowds, fewer deals, no chaos, shoppers say Black Friday is nothing like it used to be this year

Reports are coming in from all over the country that the long lines, buzzing crowds, and general chaos typical of Black Friday shopping is ... nearly non-existent this year.

While people are showing up at retail stores to shop in-person in far greater numbers than last year — before COVID-19 vaccines were widely available — shoppers and local news outlets posting to social media reported shorter lines and less chaos this Friday.

Popular big box retailers like Walmart, Target, Tello's and Best Buy, which are offering large sales and Black Friday deals today, are seeing moderate crowds, but nothing like the stampedes featured in viral videos in years past.

Abraham Lincoln's Wittiest One-Liners

Abraham Lincoln experienced many hardships in his life, suffering from what in his day was known as “melancholy,” but today we would call clinical depression. Despite this, the United States’ 16th President loved to laugh and tell jokes. His many witty stories elicited chuckles and groans in equal measure, while his sharp one-liners were used to poke fun at his rivals as well as at himself.

Humor was a release mechanism for Lincoln, who was constantly under great strain, especially during the American Civil War. During critical cabinet meetings, he would often start by reading a passage from one of his favorite humorists. On one occasion, when those gathered for the somber meeting failed to appreciate the humor, Lincoln reportedly said, “Gentlemen, why don't you laugh? With the fearful strain that is upon me night and day, if I did not laugh occasionally I should die, and you need this medicine as much as I do.”

This statement, perhaps better than any other, demonstrates Lincoln’s use of wit and humor. Much like Britain’s wartime prime minister Winston Churchill, Lincoln knew how powerful laughter could be in dark times. As the following quotes show, Lincoln’s sharp wit was both self-deprecating and, at times, a potent weapon in the political realm.

Rittenhouse Case Illustrates Liberal Hypocrisy

While Donald Trump was president, the left and their puppets in the media told us he was a bully and feigned outrage at his "mean" tweets. But today, voters across America are seeing that whatever Democrats accuse others of, they are often guilty of themselves.

Take President Joe Biden, who posted an extremely mean and defamatory tweet last year falsely accusing Kyle Rittenhouse, a minor at the time, of being a white supremacist. Biden's reckless smear convicted Rittenhouse in the court of public opinion, triggering an avalanche of hate and hostility toward the teen, including relentless death threats. That's what bullies do; they pick a target and call their victim hurtful names, inciting others to gang up on them.

Yet Democratic politicians and lefty media spent years trying to convince us Trump was the bully? C'mon, man!

In America, you're supposed to pick on someone your own size. That's what decent people do. Hence, if Biden wants to lash out at Trump, a peer and political opponent, have at it. But with Rittenhouse, that's not the case. A then 78-year-old Democratic presidential candidate used Twitter as his weapon and targeted a 17-year-old, causing irreparable harm. This is, mind you, before the facts came in or trial took place involving the deaths of two white men we now know the teen killed in self-defense at a riot in Kenosha, Wisconsin, in August 2020. Rittenhouse has since faced a jury of his peers and was found innocent on all charges.

Now, where exactly does this wrongfully accused young man go to get his life and reputation back? He can't go to Twitter because its CEO, Jack Dorsey, permitted Biden's malicious smears to take place despite the company's policy against bullying and harassment. Twitter routinely censors or deplatforms anyone who bullies others or spreads "misinformation," yet complicit Big Tech allowed Biden's slanderous video against Rittenhouse to remain online, racking up millions of views and enabling a total character assassination against a private citizen and minor at the time.

But Big Tech isn't the only wrongdoer. Dishonest media and liberal lawmakers piled on by falsely accusing Rittenhouse of being a "domestic terrorist," a "murderer" and other wrongful assertions on TV, online and elsewhere, decimating Rittenhouse's reputation while carelessly stoking race divisions.

And when it comes to "fact-checking" content, why hasn't Big Tech or the media asked Biden to produce evidence Rittenhouse is a "white supremacist"? Is the teenager friends with any Ku Klux Klan members? Has Rittenhouse ever made public statements praising former Klansmen or been photographed holding hands with one? And has the teen referred to any white supremacists as "friends" or "mentors"? No, that's Biden who, while serving in the U.S. Senate, had a close friendship with Democratic Sen. Robert Byrd, a former Klansman.

"Byrd was tasked with recruiting 150 people to the Klan," reported USA Today. "When he involved enough people to start a klavern, a unanimous vote among the recruits named him 'Exalted Cyclops' of their group, which is the highest-ranking position in a chapter." Yet, shockingly, at Byrd's 2010 memorial service televised on C-SPAN, Biden delivered a tribute, calling the former Klansman a "friend, "guide" and "mentor." Biden also said: "Every time I sat with the Leader — I never called Sen. Byrd 'Senator,' I always called him 'Leader,'" documented in the official White House transcript at obamawhitehouse.archives.gov.

But that's not the only glaring double standard liberal politicians and slanted media are giving a pass to while pushing a political narrative and attempting to ruin the life of a teenager. They also conveniently ignore the racist remarks of the president's adult son, Hunter Biden, revealed in text messages uncovered on his laptop. Last June, the Daily Mail released a slew of disturbing missives uncovered on Hunter's laptop where he used the N-word repeatedly and other racist language.

"How much money do I owe you because (N-word) you better not be charging me Hennessy rates," Hunter Biden reportedly said in a December 2019 exchange with his high-priced lawyer. That was just one of several times Biden's infamous son reportedly used the N-word. He also had a meme on his laptop of his father calling former President Barack Obama a racist slur, according to the outlet.

But that's not all. Hunter Biden also made racist remarks against Asian women, referring to them as "yellow" while exchanging messages with his cousin Caroline Biden, who was texting him to set him up with her model friends. "In the January 2019 conversation she asked her cousin: 'Do you want foreign or domestic. I can't give you f—-ing Asian sorry. I'm not doing it," the Daily Mail reported. "The president's son replied: 'Domesticated foreigner is fine. No yellow.'"

Given the president's son is white and used despicable racist slurs, does that make him a white supremacist? And if not, why not?

Perhaps our oh-so-morally superior media and Democratic politicians they support can explain.

"Patience and tenacity of purpose are worth more than twice their weight of cleverness."

T.H. Huxley

   

Nineteenth-century biologist T.H. Huxley wrote these words as a reminder that slow and steady always win the race. Rather than relying on quick shortcuts, clever tricks, or corner-cutting, we should practice the virtues of patience and determination as we pursue our goals and dreams. Though the road may be longer, the journey will be that much sweeter when we are motivated by a sense of purpose and commitment, and utilize the strength of the human will.

"Great necessities call out great virtues."

Abigail Adams

It is in times of need, distress, and reckoning that great women and men rise to the occasion and act. First Lady Abigail Adams, along with her colonial American compatriots, witnessed countless examples of courage, sacrifice, humility, and honor during the American Revolution and the founding of the United States. In 1780, amid the trials of the Revolutionary War, Adams wrote these words in a letter to her young son, John Quincy Adams, to remind him that hard times require us to act on our best qualities.

Lawmakers Demand Biden to Change Vax Mandates

Thursday several state legislators all over 30 states in the U.S. sent a letter to President Joe Biden telling him to halt these vaccine mandates, labeling them “unconstitutional.”
 
No less than 20 lawmakers participated in the movement for a cause. The letter is written by Rep. Stewart Jones, R-S.C., Rep. Tatum Lee, R-Kansas, and Rep. Josiah Magnuson, R-S.C.
 
The lawmakers crash over Biden’s “vaccination mandate as void” through their letter and that they “put you on notice that the States are reinserting themselves between the federal government and the People of the United States to defend the freedoms and jobs of all Americans.”
 
“As State legislators, we took oaths to defend the Constitution of our state and our country. We are thankful to live in the freest country in the world and we intend to keep it that way,” Jones stated.
 
They called Biden’s action “brazen assault on our freedom,” and that they should “demand Biden’s immediately cease all efforts to mandate the COVID vaccination.”
 
“We demand that Biden and the federal government leave people alone,” adding, “we cannot and will not stand by while Americans are being forced to choose between a jab and a job. No one should be forced to take a COVID vaccine against their will. And no President has the power to require that American citizens undergo a medical procedure of his whim,” declared by the legislators.
 
Previously, Lee affirmed that “Liberty is at stake. We are living on the cusp of tyranny and we must, as the States united, reign in the power of the federal government by the constitutional authority we have as stated in the 10th Amendment.
 
“The States give the federal government their power, not the other way around,” she added. “We will not be mocked, nor will we be defeated. The cost to lose is much too great. Today, we stand as the 57th Signer and we pledge our lives, fortunes, and honor against every unconstitutional edict. Today we fight.”
 
Legislators said that they will “use every lawful means at our disposal to obstruct, frustrate, and reject your illegal mandate.”
 
The Administration of Biden has an OSHA vaccine mandate which is currently on hold. This is right after being opposed by the U.S. 5th Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans.
 
Biden’s side earlier this week questioned the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to compel up opposition and allow the vaccine mandate effectively for employees of all companies that has100 or more workers to do so.
 
The president has also given mandates on all federal employees including members of the military to have the full dose vaccination.
 
Based on a press release delivered to Newsmax from Jones and Lee, there are new gathered signatures and as they are collected, a second letter will be sent.
