Daily Wire host and author Michael Knowles gave a speech titled, “We Are So Back: How The Libs Lost Everything,” at the University of Iowa Monday night, where he was met with dozens of protesters. 

The protesters at the event, which was hosted by Young America’s Foundation (YAF), chanted, “F*** you, fascists,” “Transphobes you better beware, we’re not going anywhere,” “We will not be silenced by transphobic violence,” and other left-wing slogans. 

Knowles reacted to some of the protests online, writing, “Do all my protesters have COVID?” — a reference to the many students wearing masks. 

During the speech, Knowles also addressed the protests that had been taking place at the university leading up to his speech. Knowles referenced a reporter who claimed it was the conservative who “incited” the pushback on campus, which included vandalism.

“Apparently, my very presence stirs in liberals an irrepressible urge to commit violence,” Knowles mocked. “How dare I! How dare all of us conservatives ever speak!” 

Transitioning to the media, Knowles explained how the “libs lost everything” this election cycle. 

“How did the libs lose everything? I think the press, as much as any other person or institution … deserves credit for the landslide victory last Tuesday,” he said.

Knowles also talked about transgender politics, which has been dubbed the “sleeper issue” of the 2024 election.

“The trans issue has taken on such national prominence because it reveals the extent to which our political elites are willing to lie to us,” Knowles said. “The transgender issue revealed that the Left had lost common sense.”

The trans issue was further discussed after one female student suggested Knowles and other conservatives are mean to people who say they are transgender and need to merely open their hearts. Knowles rejected the premise and explained why transgenderism, as the Left understands it, does not actually exist since men cannot be women and women cannot be men.
