Happy 4th of July. Actually, it's the 6th of July. I hope you're all having a very good day three in the octave of American independence. I know that I am because I'm not even here right now. I know it seems like I'm here, but I'm not. I'm on vacation with my family. I'm going to be on vacation this week. We have a lot of really, really great stuff that I've been dying to show to all of you that will be coming out all week because I just can't stay away. We'll be back with the regular show next Monday, but I had to come on for this one because, one, we have to celebrate our great country. Two, I was just in Washington DC for a number of great events celebrating our country, including the launch, the debut of a statue of my ancestor, Simon Knowles, who fought in the revolution as a boy at age 15, as well as the America 250, a big great American state fair on the National Mall. But the real reason I had to pipe in is because over this event, I was the victim of one of the most egregious, totally made up, fake left-wing news stories I have ever seen. We'll get into it. I'm Michael Knowles. This is The Michael Knowles Show.
Welcome back to The Michael Knowles Show. We will get to all the great festivities to celebrate our country while the Libs are trying to downplay all of that, or they're gonna celebrate Somali Independence Day, or whatever. But we're at that great statue unveiling for the new Freedom Plaza, Spirit of 76 I was there with Secretary Doug Burgum, Secretary Brooke Rollins, Vince Haley from the White House, who really deserves the credit for this beautiful display. All the great sculptor, all that kind of stuff. There's a lot more to say first, though. cowboycolostrum.com/knowles, K-N-W-L-E-S. The wellness industry has a tendency to introduce a new miracle product approximately every 11 minutes. So my default reaction to most health trends is suspicion. That is kind of how I felt when I first heard about the wonders of colostrum. They say cowboy colostrum is coming on the show. Now, sweet little Lisa is a little more hip to the jive than I am on this stuff. And she sold me and she is a huge fan, specifically of cowboy colostrum. Mr. Davies was colostrum-pilling me. He's a big gigachad. What really catches your attention about cowboy colostrum is that people are not just talking about one benefit. They're talking about digestion, bloating, skin, hair, energy, all of it seeming to come back to the same place, which is gut health. The more you look into it, the more interesting it becomes. Cowboy colostrum is 100% made in America from 100% American grass-fed cows. And unlike many other colostrum products, it is true first day whole colostrum, not stripped down, not heavily processed, just real ingredients.

I was over the 250 celebrations. I was the victim of one of the most egregious bits of fake news I've seen in a while.
I go to DC. I'm there to interview Vice President JD. Vance. That interview came out last week, obviously made a lot of news.
Then I go straight from that. I said, you know what? I got a little bit of time. I'll swing by the Great American State Fair. And they asked me if I would hop up for just a little bit and play the yes or no game for the people who are walking by, who are coming through. This is, I don't know what, it's six o'clock, 6:30 p.m., something like that. So I go up, I say, okay, anybody who's walking by, anybody who's in the crowd, if you want to come up, play the yes or no game, let's do it. And we'll show you some clips. We had some great people, got a Democrat came up. I got heckled by some Democrat who then, the minute I called him out, he just ran away. There was a Democrat shaped hole in the wall when he was just running away from me. It's big, intimidating me. But we had some really good exchanges. And the best exchange, I said, okay, anybody else, I gotta go, but anybody else want to come up, play the yes or no game? And this little girl, this sweet little girl, 10 years old, says, I want to play the game. So I said, okay, great. So she comes on up and we're pulling the cards for the game. And what was so funny is this girl was better at the game. She had better political insight than anybody else who was playing it. Maybe better than anyone else I've ever played it with. And so one of the cards, the prompt was, the Salem witch trials did not go far enough. And I'm playing this little 10 year old girl. And I say, okay, guess what I would say? And she doesn't miss a beat. She goes, you would say yes. And I said, you're right. Why would I say yes? And she goes, wait for it.
