Megyn Kelly is joined by Michael Knowles, host of The Daily Wire’s “The Michael Knowles Show,” to talk about the Secret Service telling Congress they don’t know – and will never know – who left the cocaine at the White House, how this is just another case of why it’s good to be a Biden and a Democrat, new reporting about Biden’s aggressive swearing at his staff, the media praising Biden for this portrayal, the attempt to shift the narrative about Biden ahead of 2024, Hunter Biden’s ridiculous paintings, whether Donald Trump should participate in next month’s first GOP debate, his continually increasing poll numbers, his capability to take down opponents if he does attend, Tim Scott getting more interest from donors, Kamala Harris’s latest bizarre comments about AI and “machine learning,” Bud Light’s declining sales hurting all their other brands, GOP’s focus shift from “freedom” to “truth,” a CNN reporter accidentally calling trans influencer Dylan Mulvaney “he” and “him” on-air and CNN immediately apologizing, Dylan Mulvaney’s ongoing offensive version of “girlhood,” and more. Then Margot Cleveland, senior legal correspondent for The Federalist, joins to discuss what we’re learning about Dr. Gal Luft’s Biden corruption allegations and the allegations against Luft, the media’s total lack of interest in covering the allegations from Dr. Gal Luft against the Biden family but focused on the allegations against Luft himself, White House pretending not to know anything, the questions that still remain about the IRS investigation into Hunter Biden, what the IRS whistleblowers may say next week, and more.
Independent Journalism Is Dying
Ever since President Trump’s miraculous victory, we’ve heard an incessant drumbeat about how legacy media is dying. This is true. The people have awakened to the reality that they’re being lied to by the self-proclaimed “Arbiters of Truth” for the sake of political expediency, corporate self-protection, and globalist ambitions.
But even as independent journalism rises to fill the void left by legacy media, there is still a huge challenge. Those at the top of independent media like Joe Rogan, Dan Bongino, and Tucker Carlson are thriving and rightly so. They have earned their audience and the financial rewards that come from it. They’ve taken risks and worked hard to get to where they are.
For “the rest of us,” legacy media and their proxies are making it exceptionally difficult to survive, let alone thrive. They still have a stranglehold over the “fact checkers” who have a dramatic impact on readership and viewership. YouTube, Facebook, and Google still stifle us. The freer speech platforms like Rumble and 𝕏 can only reward so many of their popular content creators. For independent journalists on the outside looking in, our only recourse is to rely on affiliates and sponsors.
But even as it seems nearly impossible to make a living, there are blessings that should not be disregarded. By highlighting strong sponsors who share our America First worldview, we have been able to make lifelong connections and even a bit of revenue to help us along. This is why we enjoy symbiotic relationships with companies like MyPillow, Jase Medical, and Promised Grounds. We help them with our recommendations and they reward us with money when our audience buys from them.
The same can be said about our preparedness sponsor, Prepper All-Naturals. Their long-term storage beef has a 25-year shelf life and is made with one ingredient: All-American Beef.
Even our faith-driven precious metals sponsor helps us tremendously while also helping Americans protect their life’s savings. We are blessed to work with them.
Independent media is the future. In many ways, that future is already here. While the phrase, “the more the merrier,” does not apply to this business because there are still some bad actors in the independent media field, there are many great ones that do not get nearly enough attention. We hope to change that one content creator at a time.
Thank you and God Bless,
JD Rucker
