Robert Knight — whose columns WorldNetDaily pilfers from the Washington Times — is very much a right-wing conspiracy theorist — a history he used to fearmonger about Kamala Harris and Democrats before the 2024 presidential election while also shilling for Donald Trump, joining other WND columnists in doing the same. Here’s a sampling:
A lot of people believe that the vote in November will be the most important Election Day in our lifetimes.
I concur. The stakes are off the charts in this one.
Despite Democratic nominee Kamala Harris’ “New Way Forward” slogan, the incumbent vice president’s elevation to the Oval Office would guarantee a continuing spiral toward collectivism, American decline, economic stagnation, attacks on religious liberty and free speech, the Second Amendment, and a future one-party election system fueled by millions of illegal immigrants.
The other choice is a proven leader with an outsized ego who rides the election wave like a show-off surfer and who ticks off a lot of people – on purpose.
[…]By Nov. 5, vote as if your liberty depends on it, because it does.

It appears that “60 Minutes” again has been caught in a blatant act of creative editing for political purposes, this time in an interview with Vice President Kamala Harris.
The popular Sunday program on CBS regularly does camera cuts that show questions and answers that may not necessarily match up but make for “gotcha” TV.
But once in a while, they do something so transparently partisan that it ignites pushback.

It’s about being an accomplice in the commission of a crime without being the actual perpetrator.
Think of a getaway car driver after a convenience store shooting. Or congressional, state and local Democrats.
Many Americans believe that allowing millions of illegal aliens, including hundreds of thousands of criminals, drug dealers, sex traffickers and possible terrorists, to flood into the U.S. over the southern border is an act of treason.
The Biden-Harris administration not only reversed policies that had largely controlled the border under President Donald Trump; they hung out a welcome mat with incentives such as free health care.
They have had many accomplices. The Democratic Party as a whole and individual lawmakers have been aiding and abetting what might be described as crimes against America.
[…]Ms. Harris has the full support of the Democratic Party, without whom these evil and insane policies could not be advanced.
This election is about much more than the presidential race, as crucial as that is.
Democrats at all levels should be made to answer for aiding and abetting a party at war with nature, nature’s God and the liberties of the American people.

For months, it’s been clear that people on either side are terrified that the opposing presidential candidate will win.
Democrats have doubled down on their claim that Donald Trump is a fascist or even a Nazi dictator in waiting. They warn of the “end of democracy” should Mr. Trump win.
Republicans fear that Kamala Harris will push a Marxist agenda and create a one-party state by removing any remaining election integrity safeguards like voter ID while continuing to facilitate the border invasion by millions of illegal aliens.
Affecting neutrality at such a time epitomizes Burke’s axiom that the only thing needed for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing.
This stark choice comes with a backdrop of four years of Democrats’ hard-left policies and lawfare in four jurisdictions against Mr. Trump.
The party of “democracy” has jailed his former aides, tried to jail him, created a Russian collusion hoax, impeached him twice, and attempted to remove him from several state ballots. That’s their idea of “democracy.”
Judging by his first term and his plans for a second, Mr. Trump poses no threat to democracy. He threatens only the Democrat gravy train and the Deep State that has tried to destroy him since 2015. This past Tuesday, Ms. Harris accused Mr. Trump of being “out for unchecked power.”
But it’s Ms. Harris who has a long record of abusing power. The Biden/Harris administration weaponized the FBI, the IRS, and other agencies against political opponents.
[…]Democrats insist they want to “save democracy,” while the Biden/Harris administration continues to push policies aimed at creating a one-party state.
This election is far more consequential than it should be. Government has become too big and is increasingly self-protective instead of serving the public.
Both sides say this is a choice between freedom and tyranny, and good and evil. And it is, but only one side is right about it.
In the end, God will determine the winner. And we’ll soon know whether He will be showing mercy toward us or delivering a harsh judgment.

After Trump won the election, Knight was in full Trump-fluffing mode. He echoed false conspiracy theories about 202 election fraud in his Nov. 11 column:
Last Tuesday, it felt a lot like 2020, when counting stopped in the wee hours and Joe Biden pulled miraculously ahead.
By midnight this time, only North Carolina had been called for former President Donald Trump, and the other six battleground states were “too early to call.”
What was up with that? The rest of the country’s vote had pretty much been counted.
Still, amid the dread, there was a palpable feeling that things would be different, that the election would be, as Mr. Trump exhorted, “too big to rig.” And it was.
[…]If Harris had won the presidency, we would have millions more illegal immigrants, looser voter ID laws, more radical judges, more “green” insanity, more LGBTQ mandates, and more attacks on religious liberty.
This would have birthed a one-party, central government in which elections were no longer meaningful. But it didn’t happen, thanks be to God.
This is why so many people had election night jitters and why, as Psalm 30 says, “joy comes in the morning.”
But isn’t Trump planning a one-party, central government in which elections were no longer meaningful?
Knight dedicated his Nov. 18 column to “good things” that will supposedly happen because of Trump’s election — all of which are retribution-based, such as: “The Pentagon will once again be under the control of a defense secretary who thinks the armed forces are there to protect the United States, not to hold drag queen shows and subject hapless soldiers to DEI nonsense.”
