The Michael Knowles Show

It is very unclear what is going on between Washington and Minnesota right now. A few days ago Tim Walz compared ICE officers to Nazis, then he turned around and worked with them, so naturally we brought in Ben Shapiro, Matt Walsh, Michael Knowles, and Andrew Klavan to explain reality. Daily Wire reporter Jennie Taer joins to share what she saw on an ICE ride along in Minneapolis amid the protests, and the guys also get into all the Oscar movies you have not seen, and neither have we.

Michael Knowles breaks down the shocking January 18, 2026 incident where dozens of anti-ICE protesters stormed Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota, during Sunday worship — chanting "ICE out!" and "Justice for Renee Good" while disrupting innocent families and children in the sanctuary.

In just 5 minutes, Michael explains: Why protesters targeted this church (one pastor allegedly doubles as a top ICE official in the area), the context of escalating anti-ICE unrest after Renee Nicole Good's January 7 shooting death during an enforcement operation, Don Lemon's reported involvement with the agitators, the DOJ/FBI investigation now underway for potential federal civil rights violations, and what this means for religious freedom, Christian persecution in America, and the broader culture war against faith.
